“Eddie provided drop-in visits for our hound dog Milo while we were out of the country for 2 weeks. He took good care of Milo and communicated well with us throughout, giving us great peace of mind. Would definitely recommend.”
“Alyssa was great with my cat, who experiences separation anxiety. She did a wonderful job and sent me pics of my kitty getting skritches. I appreciate her care.”
“Victoria has been our regular petsitter while we work. Our Cavalier, Louie, loves her! She is great with our dog, and has excellent communication with me. Victoria is always flexible if changes in our weekly schedule occur. She always informs me if something comes up and we need to adjust the days she pet-sits Louie. Victoria has such a special way with animals. I highly recommend her.”
“Haven was absolutely wonderful with my two senior cats, Brother and Bitty. Both are on transdermal methimazole, and she handled their medication confidently and consistently. She sent two photos every morning and evening, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Her communication was reliable and reassuring, and it was clear she genuinely cared about my cats. She also went above and beyond—cleaning up cat vomit without hesitation and even turning off a TV that had accidentally been left on. Those extra details really stood out. I came home to happy, calm cats and a well-kept home. I would absolutely book Haven again and highly recommend her, especially for senior pets or those with medical needs.”
“I am so happy to have found Isabella for check-ins with our dog! She’s a true animal lover and an excellent match for our needs. She is prompt, professional, responsible, friendly, and of course our pup just loves her. Thank you, Isabella!”
“Elizabeth is fantastic! Clio requires special care, and Elizabeth was super communicative and comprehensive in our upfront prep, and was great during her drop-in visit to make sure everything went smoothly for Clio. She was attentive to our fur baby's needs, and Clio seemed to have a great time hanging with her! We will definitely be working with Elizabeth again!”
“Lynn went above and beyond to take care of our boys! She left detailed notes about her time with them and it was obvious she was a dog lover! I felt more than comfortable having her take care of our dogs while we were away.”
“Rachel took great care of my dog! She asked great questions during the meet and greet and followed my directions well. She gave my dog lots of love and attention ❤️”
“Margaret was wonderful! She is very thorough with her care and was super accommodating. She sent great photos from her visits and kept me updated on how everything went with my dog. She is great to work with and I have already booked her for upcoming house/pet sitting. Thank you, Margaret!”
“Danielle did an excellent job with Otis, kept me updated with pics and videos from her visits. He's not always the quickest to warm up but seemed to take to her on her first visit! Came home to a happy, healthy boy. Would definitely book her to look after him again!”
“I had a great experience with Cathy! Her communication was excellent - she was responsive, clear, and kept me updated with detailed messages. She recognized my cat was overly anxious while I was away and she was more than willing to adjust the plans to fit my needs. Would highly recommend and will be booking for future services!”
“Shannon did a fantastic job checking in on our two cats while we were out of town. The kitties are still fat and sassy, and actually came out to say hello for their check in photos! Highly recommended.”
“First time having Nick care for our fur babies! Nick is a great young man who clearly loves animals. He was punctual for our meet and greet as well as drop in visit to care for our pups! Would highly recommend and will definitely be calling on him for future needs!”
“Kirby is awesome! She took such good care of my sweet boy Dino! This was my first time using Rover & Kirby put all my nerves at ease. The report card & photos were sweet & helpful. Would definitely recommend Kirby to anyone looking for responsible, loving care for their fur baby 🩷”
“Elijah did an excellent job with my shy cat. He was very patient and understanding, and followed all of the instructions I left. I am so glad to have had such a nice sitter for my baby!”

This was the first time using Rover and Julia for my cats and chickens while having to be at a family function in the midwest. Everything on the homefront went smoothly and Julia provided me with peace of mind tending to my fur babies . I will definitely be using her services again!
Sarah was the perfect cat sitter. She came each day as promised and gave my cat, Callie, lots of love and plenty of pets. The pictures she sent always showed that Callie was glad to see her. She gave Callie lots of love and attention and that's the best thing of all.
