Samantha was truly exceptional and went above and beyond in every possible way. From the very beginning, her communication was clear, prompt, and reassuring, which immediately put us at ease. While we were away, she treated our home and pets as if they were her own, showing an incredible level of care, responsibility, and attention to detail. She kept us regularly updated with thoughtful messages and photos, handled everything seamlessly, and even took care of extra things we didn’t expect or ask for. It was clear that she genuinely cares and takes pride in what she does. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and a spotless house—honestly better than we left it. If you’re looking for someone you can completely trust, Samantha is it. We couldn’t have asked for a better house sitter and will absolutely be booking her again. Highly, highly recommend!

Reanna was fantastic for dogsitting and gave plenty of updates and pictures throughout the weekend of her overnight stays at my house. My dogs loved her too! :)

About: I've taken care of several dogs and cats for friends and neighbors, whether that's just checking in or staying overnight. I am avaliable to accompany the pets for extended hours or days. Pet sitting is my full time job, so I am usually available whenever! I'm able to either stay with the pets or check on them periodically. I am able to watch pets at a client's house, always keeping an eye on them and making sure they're doing alright. I prefer visiting and/or staying in their environment, making sure the pets more comfortable and less stressed.

You are the bomb! 🥰😊 Cheers, Boone + Maya

Olivia took great care of our three dogs and an axolotl. She stayed at our house and was a very considerate guest leaving the house clean upon her departure. She was very easy to work with. I can’t be more happier with my decision to hire her to watch after our dogs. I highly recommend her.

Bree went above and beyond for our three animals and our house. Everything felt clean and fresh when we got home, which is an ultimate luxury after being away for several days. Genuinely the best person I've booked on Rover. Bree gave lots of updates and had great questions before and during her stay. Can't wait to book her again!

About: We love dogs! We are called first when any of our friends go out of town. We have cared for dogs of all sizes and ages from older doxies to young mutts and we love large rotties too. We are also okay with special needs dogs and we make sure your dog gets their medications when scheduled. Our lab loves to make new friends with dogs of all sizes. We have a nice privacy fenced in back yard with a kiddie pool to help the dogs keep cool during the summer even though they will spend most of the time inside. Please know that if your pup stays with us he or she will be treated like a part of the family. We love dogs! I help my Dad on his farm only when I'm not scheduled to care for a pup I'm hosting. I'm free to stay at home all day with your pet. I always keep an eye on what's going on. I'm usually outside if our pups are. If I'm watching a pet at your home, I don't make messes.

About: I have trained my border collie puppy to do all the basic tricks as well as be calm in public as a hyperactive dog breed. I work full time at a law firm but my free time is ideally spent with pets! My dog and I have a routine for our walks and play time around it so he gets all of his attention. I live on land so my 2 dogs (Border Collie and Golden Retriever) have lots of area to run around and play but it is also fenced in and they never stray. We also have a trail behind the house for walks without disruption. Sometimes we will go to the park for walks or training as well for interaction. We also have kennels in the garage and outside. Caring for pets in a clients home would be completely decided by said client and I would respect their wishes to the best of my ability.

Stephanie is the best pet sitter we've ever had! She went above and beyond when one of our dogs had a medical situation and likely saved his life. Calm, pleasant, super responsive to calls and texts both! The house was immaculate and our other pups and kitties super calm and happy. Really caring! We can't thank her enough, and will surely invite her back. Fenway, Scooter and Sally say "4 paws up!"

We could not be more pleased with Jonna. She kept us informed with just enough texts and pictures that we knew thery were being well cared for. One example included "We all fell asleep on the couch last night." We knew all was well as that is typical of my wife and her "babies". We will would give 10 stars if we could.
