1. Devin D.

“Devin was great with Penny and she was well taken care of for 10 days. We had peace of mind as a result. He communicated regularly and responded to any pings we had within a reasonable period of time. Where Devin stands out is how he ensures he's home alot with your pet. And we appreciate that greatly. He took good care of house and garden as well. Would recommend him and also will use him again in future.”


2. Stephanie H.

“LOVE Stephanie. I think Marley gets depressed for a couple of days after she leaves 😀. She constantly sends updates and photos and is very attentive to our old boy. We feel very comfortable having her with him. Highly recommend Stephanie.”


3. Kseniia P.

“Kseniia was amazing. Before her stay she came over for a meet and greet so the dogs would be comfortable with her. We have two dogs who are littermates with very different personalities. She did a great job keeping to their individual diets and us informed. Also walking two large dogs who love to sniff is a testament to her patience. Overall communication and care was above and beyond and would highly recommend her to other pet owners to have her watch their best friend. We came home to two tired pups who had a great weekend :)”


4. Jamie J.

“Jamie took really good care of our dog over an extended weekend. Our dog was happy and well fed. Jamie was very responsive and was flexible on the timings as well.”


5. Sejla G.

“Sejla is a gem! We are so thankful for her. Excellent communication with meaningful updates, trustworthy and honest, punctual and responsible, and the absolute kindest. She always leaves our house in the same condition. Our dog loves her and we know Daisy is safe and in good hands with Sejla!”


6. Jeanne M.

“Jeanne was absolutely wonderful to our doggies and went above and beyond our expectations. It is such a relief to find someone that we can trust with our fur babies. She kept us well updated with pics and videos, played fetch and even helped out when an unexpected ant problem arose while we were away. We will 1000% use Jeanne again, thank you so much!!”


7. Dalene K.


“Dalene does a great job. Takes care of our dog in our house, and brings my dog to her house to hang out with her dog and they always have a good time together. She does a wonderful job of taking Joy for walks in fun places, and sending us lots of pictures.”


8. Kate S.


“Kate was lovely! She took on the big job of watching our three pups. She sent daily updates with pictures and took great care of our house. Really great experience!”


9. Jennifer Z.

“This was our first time we left our beloved dog Joy behind after over 6 six years of having her. After anxious searching for the best in-house sitting option, we decided to use Jennifer’s service. Jennifer was just fantastic. She made the whole process so easy and comfortable for me. She made sure she understood Joy’s schedule, habits, quirks, likes and dislikes. She sent frequent updates and responded to my questions promptly. Joy was excited to see me back home. After 10 minutes she went back to her normal relaxed self. That shows how comfortable and happy she was with Jennifer. I trust Joy with Jennifer 100% and will definitely go to Jennifer for help next time.”


10. Sasha M.

“Sasha was great with our aging pup Buddy. She made me feel very safe leaving him in her care. She is calm and caring. I will definitely be asking her to help us with his care again.”


11. Jed S.

“Jed was an ideal house sitter and dog watcher, and excellent communicator. He set us at ease when he came for the meet and greet, asked great questions about the home and dogs, and set solid expectations, which he ultimately exceeded! He kept us up to date with pics of our dogs, collected our mail, left the house spotless, did some extra cleaning for us, and of course took dogs for walks and spent lots of time with them. Everyone was thrilled, thanks Jed.”


12. Annelliese D.


“Annelliese was so great with Baloo. Her communication was great and considering I’m and anxious person, I received messages and updates from Annelliese before I asked for them. My house was left cleaner than when my husband and I left for our vacation. Baloo happy = us happy! So glad we found our person!”


13. Dana A.

“Dana was absolutely amazing! She was so attentive to each of our dogs needs. We got frequent updates and pictures during our trip and it was clear that she cared for our dogs and our home like they were her own. It is very hard to find a sitter you can really trust and we are so grateful we found Dana!!”


14. Sheila O.

“Sheila stayed in our home for two weeks in October while my family vacationed in England. We met twice so she could get to know Lalo. They hit it off from the start. Sheila was concientious about Lalo's schedule, and walked and fed him per instructions. Lalo had a wonderful time while in Sheila's care. She made a big effort to excercise him and engage with our energetic pup throughout the day. We so appreciated the pictures of playtime and walks that she sent us every day. She also sent us an account of Lalo's behaviors, pup playmates and adventures. We returned home to a happy dog, our home was in order, and Sheila had even kept our plants and garden in shape while we were gone. I am so glad that we found such a wonderful caring and responsible person to keep our Lalo company. We are grateful to have found her.”


15. Etta C.

“Etta took very good care of my senior dog. She followed instructions and checked in consistently throughout the whole booking. I came home to a happy and healthy pup.”


16. Renin S.

“Renin was excellent and we cannot wait to book her for our next outing/trip. We had an emergency situation, leaving us looking for a dog sitter with only 8 hours until our flight. Renin responded quickly, was flexible with the handoff and with receiving detailed instructions. Our 6yo lab is an active gal, and Renin was up to the task. Two walks a day, two trips to the park to play fetch a day…no problem! Renin sent photos and updates the whole time, and took such good care of our fur baby. When we got home, our pup was wiped! Cannot say enough good things and we will definitely be booking Renin, again.”


17. Kristina B.


“This was the first time we used Rover to pet sit our senior pup, Verbena, so we were slightly nervous (me more than my partner). We can't say enough good things about Kristina. She communicated and sent updates/pictures very often, making the experience so much easier for us. Kristina took excellent care of Verbena and catered to all her quirks (she's an old lady). She also took care of the house. There is no doubt we will be using Kristina in the future.”


18. Polaris E.
“I cannot speak highly enough of Polaris when it comes to caring for my dog. Polaris has consistently demonstrated not only an incredible level of responsibility but also exceptional skill and dedication. Over the time that she has taken care of my dog, Polaris has watched, trained, and boarded my Chica (Red and White Border Collie) with zero accidents, showing a deep understanding of my dog’s needs and temperament. What stands out the most is Polaris’ clear and reliable communication. Whether it’s keeping me updated during a boarding session or providing valuable feedback from training, I always feel informed and confident that my dog is in great hands. I trust Polaris fully and would recommend her services to anyone looking for a professional and trustworthy pet caregiver.”


19. Stephen T.
“Stephen is a very responsible pet caregiver. He has many years of experience caring for pets and will always do his best to make sure that your pet is safe, happy, and healthy. I cannot recommend Stephen enough as he always goes above and beyond! He is a great communicator and is my go to for a pet caregiver!”


20. Anuja V.

“Anuja was a fantastic caretaker of our pets while we were on vacation. She provided regular updates and responded quickly whenever we had questions. She provided our pets with great care and attention so we always felt relaxed during our time away from them. She is very responsible and adaptable to the needs of our pets. We look forward to working with her again in the future.”
