1. Megan M.

“Megan is the best! Not only is she warm and wonderful with the dogs (one pooch kept looking for her throughout our first night back!) but also she is responsible, communicative, and sent photos while we were away for 8 days…and how really nice to come home and find everything clean and tidy. Of course, we missed our pooches but were able to enjoy our vacation knowing they were in Megan’s conscientious care. Clearly, Megan is our first choice for future bookings!”


2. Catecha G.

“Nothing but praise for Catecha! She helped us out with house sitting our 3 pups with just a few days notice. The pups loved her from the meet & greet. We couldn't keep our oldest dog from trying to get in Catecha's vehicle to go home with her! Communication was immediate. We returned to 3 very happy pups and a house cleaner than we left it!! I would 100% book Catecha again and highly recommend her to anyone with any Rover needs!”


3. Hannah N.

“Hannah was so great! It was our dogs’ second time at home with a sitter, and they seemed to love her, they even slept with her! She was very communicative, and adapted well to the fact that one of our dogs likes to escape the invisible fence occasionally. She made sure to keep a close eye on him and prevent him from trying again. She loves animals and was respectful of our home and very clean. We will definitely use Hannah again.”


4. Christy V.

“Christy did an amazing job taking care of my babies and my house was way more clean when we returned from our extended trip! I would highly recommend Christy and will definitely be a repeat customer!”

11. Faith C.
About: I’ve had experience with animals for about 15 years and I take pride in knowing what they need while also making them happy! I also have dog and cat sat multiple times for roommates and family friends! I’m currently taking a gap year before I go to grad school but am available on Fridays and the weekends! Perfect for date nights or a simple night out on the town! I make sure my dogs have food and water and have gone on a walk to do their business and get fresh air and exercise. I also like to play with them too so they get some fun in their day and afterwards are ready for a nap!


12. Rachel R.
“Rachel has previously baby sat my two dogs. Pit mix (5years old) and Dalmation (3years old). Before we left for vacation for a 1 week. Rachel came over to introduce herself with my pets. I walked her through how we do things day to day with our babies. Such as their routines, includng feeding schedules. When we left for vacation. I texted Rachel the time we left and the last time they went outside. When she arrived, she texted me and sent pictures or videos of my babies all week! Anytime she had to leave the house for work or personal reason. She respected my wishes, tended to my babies how I would and made sure my house was locked and tended to as well. We did have her stay at our house for the entire week. She would sleep with our babies and give them all the love like they were hers. highly recommend Rachel, as she is communcative and respectful to your babies needs and your wishes!”

16. Loan L.
About: Hi there! So lovely to meet you! My name is Loan and I have cared for pets since I was 18! I’ve dog sat and was a frequent dog walker up until December of 2021 when I got my very own pup! I am now back in business and ready to love your pup as if they were my own and my own pup will love your pup as if they were her siblings! I have a full-time work from home job so your pup will always have someone watching them (unless I am running errands). Although I do not have my own yard, potty breaks are always frequent and I never miss walks! Your pup will never be left alone as I have the friendliest pup ever but if things get overwhelming, I can always crate all dogs and make sure everyone is happy and calm. Since I WFH, your pup will always be on 24/7 watch so there won’t be any room for concern!


17. xionella a.
“Xionella is the perfect puppy sitter! I’ve left my dog at her house a couple times (he is a Great Pyrenees Mix) and he loves her. She takes your dog to walk at least twice a day, and every other afternoon they go to the park to play! She is always available and has an incredible energy. She has a dog of her own, but he is a little dog that causes no trouble with other dogs. She makes sure your dog receives his/her medicine if needed, and she will give him/her a ton of love!”


18. Matthew B.
“Matthew took care of our dogs, and we were thrilled! When he came over to meet the dogs, we knew he was the right person. He was attentive to our instructions and house rules. He cared for our pets well and made us feel safe. His attention to detail was amazing, and he stuck to our routine. We felt relaxed knowing he was taking care of our dogs. They were having a blast and were happy with him. We’ll use him again and highly recommend him.”


19. McCall W.
“McCall is definitely one of the most pet friendly people to walk this earth. I personally have a cat who doesn’t like most people, but she instantly clicked with him. She has many of her own personal pets of all sorts and she’s always been loving to each and everyone of them. She is great with meeting new pets and people and I think she will be a great fit for walking and taking care of your pets!”


20. Jayda S.
“Concerning Jada S: Jada is amazing ! She has been with us for about 3 years. As a trusted dog trainer, sitter, walker, etc. She has at times worked side by side with our Certified Professional trainer. Our boy Bailey is an 85 # Lab Pit mix, Handful, to say the least. He LOVES her And cannot wait to see her. I would recommend Jayda as a truly sweet, gentle, genuine, trusted friend to us and to Bailey. She has even taught him some dance steps as well as general obedience, and believe it or not she has taught him different COLORS of toys. I cannot say enough great things about her❤️ Diane H.”
