She is absolutely amazing! She keeps me very informed during her time with Duchess. She plays a lot with her and it shows from how tired she is when we get back! She is so kind and a good sitter! Definitely use her!

Christina did such a great job sitting for us in December! We have 2 senior dogs and 2 cats. Our dogs are both on various medications and have pretty specific care instructions. She was very attentive to detail and very communicative - which we really appreciate! Would definitely recommend her!

Highly recommend Gabrielle for pet sitting and walks! She took care of our goldendoodle and cat at our house while we were away. She is great at sticking to their routine and gives great pictures/updates along the way. She is reliable, friendly, and trustworthy. Left the house in great shape. We feel so at ease when traveling knowing they are in good hands. It’s hard for me to be away from our dog but she makes it easy and I know I can relax!

Amanda went above and beyond in caring for North. She sent me photos several times a day, including during walks, and North seemed very happy to spend time with her. She left my home in perfect condition, and I feel confident that North was very well taken care of. I highly recommend Amanda to other pet owners, and I will absolutely hire her again! Thank you, Amanda!

Rob and Mabel got along well. Rob provided daily updates and was last-minute flexible when our end date changed! He even grabbed the mail for us as a courtesy. Rob left our home in the same condition it was in when we left. It was nice to come back to that. I We are happy to recommend him for your pet sitting needs. Mabel also gives five licks of approval!

Rachel did a great job with my spoiled cat Bella and was respectful and conscientous with my home. I found Bella well adjusted and taken care of as if I never left her presence. Rachel is a very kind and caring pet lover. She kept sent pics and kept me up to date. Appreciated her help and would have her pet sit Bella again in a heartbeat.

My wife and I booked Dominique to watch our dog during our wedding weekend. She went above and beyond helping us out, giving us updates, and even bringing our pup to the Church for pictures. Dominque was the MVP of our wedding and it was so wonderful being able to share the moment with our dog while also knowing he was safe and comfortable.

Marisol was wonderful house sitting for my White German Shepherd Wolf during an extended trip I recently took that included some challenging communication issues due to my remote location (no cellular). She responded through WhatsApp and reassured me daily that all was well. She took the job on short notice and was an absolute pleasure to interact with, and asked questions for clarification of anything that she was unsure about. I appreciated that, and her excellent care of Wolf.

AnnaMaria left our home clean and dog happy while we were away. I received daily updates, which eased our minds knowing Aspen was in great hands. She even left us a cute Polaroid of our happy boy and their time together. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely use her again in the future!

Alexys did a great job with our kitten and puppy. She kept us updated on how they were doing. Our puppy is skittish around new people and things and she was able to win him over. She was also very professional and our home was as we left it. We will be using her again in a few days after having her here for the past week.

Christina went above and beyond! She did great with our fearful dog, including when she struggled with the new years fireworks. She made sure she got her medicine, went out & ate enough, and got plenty of love. And she did an equally excellent job with our cats. Would highly, highly recommend for house sitting, dog walking, checking in on cats. Thank you so much!

Rob was truly exceptional, and we couldn’t recommend him more highly. He watched our two girls for 9 days, and from start to finish, he went above and beyond in every possible way. He took incredible care of both dogs, even going so far as to buy them extra-special treats to celebrate their birthdays while we were away which was such a thoughtful and unexpected gesture that meant so much to us. Our dog Winnie has anxiety, especially during bad weather, and Rob was unbelievably patient, attentive, and gentle with her. Knowing she was in such caring, capable hands gave us complete peace of mind. Rob was kind, thoughtful, and communicative, providing great updates throughout our trip that reassured us our girls were happy, loved, and well cared for. On top of that, he treated our home with the utmost respect. He clearly took pride in being a responsible and considerate house guest. It’s rare to find someone who cares this deeply, not just about the dogs, but about the entire experience. We came home to two very happy pups and a perfectly cared for home. We would trust Rob again in a heartbeat and feel incredibly lucky to have found him!

We are so grateful that Alexandria was able to watch our dog, cat, and house. Our pets a little quirky - we have an anxious dog and a very sassy cat who like things to be their way, and Alexandria was totally accommodating. She handled their medications, multiple foods, and bathroom breaks without an issue and sent lots of updates while she was with them. Our dog in particular can be a hider/runner, so I wanted to make sure he was watched carefully and Alexandra did that and more. Ever since adopting our anxious dog, we have not left him alone with anyone but family because we were nervous how he would react. Alexandria is the first "stranger" he's been with and he took to her immediately, happily cuddling up with her! I look forward to being able to plan more time away knowing that our dog and cat will be well cared for, and knowing that they will be comfortable. I would HIGHLY recommend Alexandria to anyone, because if she can handle our pets, she can handle anything!

Morgan was amazing with our pup over the weekend! This was our first time using Rover, and she made the experience so smooth and comforting. Her communication was excellent—complete with regular updates and adorable photos—and she stuck to our dog’s routine, which helped keep everything familiar and stress-free. We’re so grateful for her care and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again (if she’s available!). Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!
