“I was nervous to leave my cat, as I have never left her with a non-family member before, but Mary was wonderful! Mary came by before the trip and was great with my cat. She updated me during the trip, and when I returned, my cat seemed very relaxed and content. I will definetely be booking again!”

Rachel S.

“Jordan did a great job taking care of my dog, Beckett! She sent plenty of pictures and even knitted a little paw for me while I was gone. I also appreciated that she was tidy and bonus ran my dishwasher and stripped the bed for me on her last day. Would absolutely recommend Jordan!”

Madison S.

“James is amazing with our 17 year old senior dog and young dog that needs a lot of exercise and potty breaks! Our time away is so much more enjoyable knowing he is taking such great care of the dogs.”

“Tessa was amazing with our two hyper dogs! She was patient, kind, and communicative from start to finish. She definitely made us feel comfortable leaving our fur babies for a few days-sending pictures at least once a day! She even washed the bedding and towels before leaving which was so over and above what we ever expected of her. I highly recommend using her for any and all pet needs. We greatly appreciate all she did for us!”

Brandi C.

“Amanda was a wonderful sitter for our doodle Henry. He loved having her and she really took great care of him. He had walks and playtime and she sent frequent pictures showing us how much fun Henry was having. I was completely at ease knowing she was at our house with him. She also left the house impeccable. We highly recommend her!!!”

Paula P.

“Madison and Ryan were amazing with our furbaby! We did a quick trip, but our pup was left in great hands. They were very attentive in making sure Nestle was comfortable and that my separation anxiety was at ease :) I received several adorable photos! We will definitely be booking again in the future!”

Rebekah E.

“This was our first time working with Jonathan as our pet/house sitter and it was a great experience. We were grateful that he was willing to stop by a second time before our trip so we could have the peace of mind that our dog would recognize him and be comfortable. He also sent us updates and pics every couple days and the house was just as clean as we left it. Couldn’t ask for more!”

Katherine B.

“Ava did a fantastic job of taking care of my dog and I look forward to having her take care of her the next time I am away. Thank you again Ava!”

Sam B.

“Was nothing short of amazing. From the meet and greet to entire time Lettie was house sitting, she was attentive and thorough. Gave updates along the way and made the entire experience so stress free. Best experience with Rover yet!”

Gracyn S.

“We can’t say enough amazing things about Christian! Christian is incredibly caring, thoughtful, a fantastic planner, and so responsible. Our dog can be slower to warm to new people and feels so comfortable around Christian.”

Kelsey C.

“We were gone for 10 days. Samantha house and dog sat. She is fantastic. Took care of them like they were her own. She even helped out and watered our outdoor plants since there was no rain. Highly recommended.”

About: I grew up with dogs, and in the last few years have been regularly petsitting for friends and mutual friends who need a dog lover to give them peace of mind that their pets will be cared for and loved on even when you're away :) I work full time, typically either 11-6:30 or 12-8:30 Tues-Sat (usually off Sunday and Monday). Infrequently I have later a later shift depending on work needs, and that usually means 3-11. Overall, I can be available in the morning, evening, and overnight around my work schedule! I'm an active person and love walks, so I can take your pet on very long walks and provide lots of play! I can take them out to the bathroom in the morning and evenings, and feed + administer medicine as needed. Overall, I enjoy getting to spend time with dogs so they will be watched and looked after (....and given lots of treats but that's between me and them)

“We were a little nervous about leaving our pup with anyone, but Mackenzie was great. She sent us pictures every day and checked in about any questions that came up. Her questions showed her experience with dogs, and really put us at ease. Our pup took to her, and seemed to enjoy having her around. We will certainly use her again.”

Megan J.

“Dakota, this review is written also as my gratitude. Thank you again for all your time and attention to my dogs for such a very long time (12 days!). They were content and happy when I got back. And the house was spotless! (You didn’t have to clean up!) I felt safe leaving them with you and deeply appreciated your daily updates and photos. I hope you and Spam would be willing to help us out again in the future 😊!!”

“Samantha was amazing!! She had excellent communication with us and sent fun pictures each time she gave us an update. She watered my plants, administered medication to my dog, and washed the sheets and towels before leaving. She was flexible about our return time and made sure she gave our dog a good walk before leaving. I can’t wait to have her back!”

Sue H.

“Jessica was so patient with my anxious pup and kept me updated throughout the sitting! Left the house nice and tidy as well. Would highly recommend her to other pet parents!”

“LaTrice looked after our cat, Squash, while we were out of town. Upon our return, our place was clean - actually, it was cleaner! - and Squash was happy. Latrice is a good, friendly, and attentive person. I was extremely satisfied with LaTrice’s care, specifically her consistency. When LaTrice was on her way to meet Squash, she communicated her ETA. During the meet-and-greet, Squash did not come out to greet LaTrice, but I know she warmed up quickly to LaTrice because it did not take Squash long to be allowed herself to be held and kissed. LaTrice continued to communicate with us throughout her stay, including when she arrived on the first day and departed on her last day. We received at least one picture daily. I am looking forward to calling LaTrice our go-to sitter. I have already booked again with LaTrice. If you happen to on the fence between sitters, I highly recommend LaTrice.”

“Our dogs fell in love with Nathan right from the start. He was great taking them out for walks, feeding them, playing ball with them, and cuddling with them. We will definitely use Nathan again!”
