“Peter was the best! He took perfect care of my pup and went above and beyond. My pup felt safe and happy and he left my home in perfect condition. Would definitely use again.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Zack went above and beyond to make sure our dog was happy and comfortable.Very responsible, communicative, and kind. Loved the updates and photos throughout the stay. So thankful to have found someone so caring and trustworthy. We felt totally at ease the whole time. highly recommend!”
“Raechel was great! This was my first time using the app and I was in a bit of a time crunch and this was also the first time I needed a house sitter for my animals. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats so the job was large and Raechel did not blink an eye to it! Her communication is fabulous as I was sent multiple pictures each day of the crew. Even my most reclusive cat seemed to love her new sitter which totally surprised me! Overall the dogs and cats seemed to love their new friend for the week and I felt completely confident in Raechel while I was gone.”
“Alexa was great with housesitting my 2 dogs! She is responsible and friendly, arrived on time, and kept me updated throughout her stay with messages and photos. I would definitely trust her to watch my doggos again!”
“Gina arrived early, which was great and very nice to do prompt courteous prepared by watching videos and being ready for the given the dog insulin and I will be using Gina in the future and I recommend her to other persons”
“Gaby took wonderful care of my 3 cats when we were gone for 5 days. She fed them their special diets, kept their litter boxes scooped, gave them fresh water, and made sure their water fountain stayed full. She played with all the cats, especially the very active kitten. She was respectful of our home as well. Would definitely use again and would recommend to anyone who needs a responsible person to take care of their pets while they are away.”
“Alicia stayed at our home for the weekend and took care of our 2 small dogs. They can be barky but they seemed to relax around her pretty quickly. She sent several pix -our doxie was snuggling up to her the same night we left and our nervous chihuahua was in out in the yard wagging away the next day. The house was the same as we left it. We would definitely book Alicia again 😀”
“Isabella was amazing! I had no worries and she followed all my instructions exactly with plenty of updates and pictures. She went above and beyond helping me with my plants and package deliveries too. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my babies were getting great care. We have already booked her again!”
“Kaylee is the best. I am so glad we found her. She watched my babies while I was out of town and could not have been more sweet. She was very thoughtful and left my house cleaner than it was when I left. She’s awesome and I would recommend her to everyone !”
“We were very grateful to have Jennifer's help with our three pets while out of town (an adult dog, a puppy, and a cat). We appreciated her enthusiasm to be there for our pets, be a presence for our home while we were gone, and it gave us a lot of peace of mind. She was very communicative and respectful of our home, and she took good care of our animals. Thank you, Jennifer!”
“Autumn was absolutely phenomenal! She stayed at our house over the Thanksgiving holiday and took incredible care of our two dogs. She sent daily photos and videos, kept them active with walks, and gave them so much love and attention. On top of that, our home was spotless when we returned. We felt completely at ease knowing our pups were in such caring hands. We’ll 100% be using Autumn anytime we go out of town — and the dogs give her all the tail wags! 🐾”
“Brent was incredible with our dog. He was super detailed and attentive. Also very clean and organized. I really appreciated how Brent sent multiple photos and videos each day. We knew our puppy and our home were well cared for.”
“Phoebe was awesome. She sent pictures and video updates which I appreciated so much. She continued to uphold my baby’s training which I also appreciated. Sanders and I look forward to seeing you again!”
“Sara took amazing care of Prim. My dog had a vacation while I was away and it was very clear that she enjoyed herself. My dog is 14years old so she can't be easy at times but Sara had patience with her and took great care of her. Thank you.”
“Valery is an extraordinary pet sitter. I’ve used Rover since 2021 and recently moved to Orlando, so I was looking for someone new I could trust for home sitting. From the moment we met, I knew she was the one. She took wonderful care of my 13-year-old senior Shih Tzu, who has cataracts, dry eye (needs drops twice a day), and a special diet that requires some prep. Valery cared for him as if he were her own. She was patient when applying his eye drops, took care of his meals, and gave him the attention and affection a senior dog needs. While I was away for 10 days, she sent me daily photos and videos just as I asked, which helped ease my anxiety. She even handled an allergy that flared up right before my trip, getting a product (after checking with me first) that worked better than the vet meds I had tried. Guapo was happy, relaxed, and barking for treats like he does when I’m home. Valery truly understands the stress of leaving our fur babies behind, and knowing she’s capable of managing any emergency or unexpected situation gave me real peace of mind. I recommend her 100%—she’s trustworthy, attentive, and incredibly loving with animals. Thank you, Valery! I’m truly grateful!”

We had an excellent experience and would highly recommend this service. Our sitter was professional, communicative, and took outstanding care of our dogs while we were away. We received updates throughout our trip, and it was obvious our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. As an added bonus, our home was left clean and organized when we returned, which was greatly appreciated. It’s not easy leaving your pets behind, but this experience gave us complete peace of mind. We would gladly use this service again and look forward to booking in the future.
Here’s a smoother and more polished version that keeps your warmth and sincerity: I want to thank Brandee for taking such great care of Burton during his time with her! She was easy to communicate with, attentive to every detail I asked for, and made me feel completely comfortable leaving him in her care. Burton absolutely loved her, and he can be very selective about people. This was the longest time I’ve ever been away from him, and all of the pictures and check-ins gave me such a sense of peace while I was gone. I’m so grateful for the care and attention she gave him!
Zach lived up to all the amazing reviews house sitting our two fur babies (Golden doodle and Aussie doodle) for the past 4 nights. We came home to an immaculately clean house with two happy boys. Zach was very detailed throughout the whole process from the initial meet n greet ensuring he knew the ins n outs of their routine, behaviors, likes/dislikes and everything in between. Zach sent multiple picture and videos with updates every day all the way up through the last day. We will absolutely be using Zach for future occasions from walks to house sittings and can’t recommend him enough.
Maria was amazing!!! I always have felt guilty leaving our pups, but this time it felt like our boy was on vacation as well. Maria spoiled him rotten! 💕 As a rescue, he has some fears, but she loved on him with patience and kindness, and he fell in love with her and trusts her so much. I told her she was a dog whisperer, being able to touch him in situations we normally even can’t. He’s even learning to sit now thanks to Maria! She went above and beyond doing some minor clean up grooming to make O more comfortable. And, to top it all off, I received tons of photos, videos, and updates every day—I loved this so much! I felt so comfortable and would 100% recommend Maria!
We love Heather! If you can’t be there, she is the person you want to take care of your pets. She watched our dogs for 4 nights in our home. She embraced all of their quirks and treated them as if they were her own pets. She communicated regularly via text. She even sent some videos, and got some great pictures of our pups. We are looking forward to more trips since we’ve found a great sitter for the girls!
