This was our second time having Alex stay with our pups and she was just as amazing! Our boys always look so happy with her and it’s so nice to know they are in good hands while we are away. I’ve been recommending her to everyone!

Penny was my favorite sitter so far. She was great at communicating before, during, and after the trip. She left my house almost better than it was before I left. But most importantly, she bonded with my cats. I felt completely at ease while away because I could tell by her messages and photos that she genuinely liked my cats. Bonus... She also has a sense of humor. I will definitely be booking with Penny again.

Julie is wonderful. She has taken our dog on multiple walks and now stayed at our home for a weekend we were out of town. She sent us many pictures and updates throughout the weekend, we came home to a perfectly clean home and happy pup. Definitely recommend!!

Pagie took wonderful care of our pets while we were out of town. We have one dog who is very shy and timed with strangers, Paige did a wonderful job with her and quickly made progress with her. I knew she felt comfort when I was getting updates about their walks, Lilly never wants to go on a walk with a new sitter until at least 3-4 days in, she's definitely a dog whisperer. She also handled our rambunctious labradoodle with ease and gave lots of love to our kitty who is usually hiding away from the dogs’ craziness. Paige provided daily updates and pics which put this dog mom at ease. We came home to a clean home and happy pets, what more could we ask for! We’ll definitely be booking with Paige again.

Rachel was amazing! She did a great job with our cats and dog. We unexpectedly needed a second overnight pet sitter, she was quick to respond to my request. Thankfully, it worked with her schedule. It was a relief to know someone familiar with our pets was able to care for them again.

Rachel did a great job housesitting for our two kitties who are a bit demanding. She took care of our mail, trash, packages, and other people coming and going from our home while we were gone. Highly recommend hiring her if you want peace of mind while on your vacation. Will use her again for upcoming trips.

Katherine was an incredible sitter! She went above and beyond sending us updates and pictures of our pups while we were away. The house was in perfect condition when we got home after 9 days, and she even shoveled a big area for the dogs in the backyard after much snow fell! We will absolutely use her again in the future!

Giovanna looked after our Dash for 10 days. She sent up updates and photos from time to time and upon our return, he was cheerful and happy. Everything at our house was in good order, too. Throughout, Giovanna was professional and positive, even when our travel schedule changed at the last minute. This was our first experience using Rover and overall so much better than boarding! Thank you, Giovanna!

Jackie was amazing! She exceeded expectations and helped me be able to feel a lot more comfortable during my 15 day trip away from my 2 dogs. I have a Husky and a Samoyed that have been boarded before but I wanted them to have more one on one attention. Jackie took them on walks, played with them, let them sleep with her and even cleaned their feet when one of them kept playing in the mud. She also took care of my home. She reached out if she had any questions, but for the most part she was pretty self sufficient. She sent some photos and videos. At the end of the dog/housesitting booking she made sure all of the dishes were cleaned, set aside the dirty laundry, took out the trash and even stayed a bit later to try and minimize the time that my dogs were alone before my flight arrived. I highly recommend Jackie!you won’t be disappointed.

Brenna is a fantastic pet- and house-sitter! I could tell from the daily videos she sent how happy and comfortable my two dogs and two cats were with her. She was communicative and responsive, followed every instruction to the letter, and made me feel completely confident that my pets and home were totally safe in her hands. She is clearly an experienced professional who loves and understands animals, and even shared grooming and training tips with me. I’m thrilled to have found her, and won’t hesitate to hire her again.
