1. Mallory S.
“I have known Mallory for the past decade and have found her to be mature, trustworthy, punctual, compassionate, reliable and wise beyond her years. Mallory has critter sat for me several times and I never worried about my fur children. I highly recommend Mallory as a sitter with Rover.com. Lincoln McCarthy, attorney at law (our Labradoodle lawyer) highly recommends Mallory too. 🐾🐾”


2. Rachael W.

“Brian was absolutely amazing! He took care of our three large and needy dogs for a week, and we couldn’t be happier with his service. Not only did he keep them happy and well cared for, but he also went above and beyond by cleaning up after himself and dirt that was tracked in from the dogs. Brian kept us updated daily with details and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. His communication was excellent, and it was clear he genuinely cared about our pups. Highly recommend Brian to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and responsible sitter! Thank you so much Brian!”


3. Ashley K.

“You cannot go wrong hiring Ashley. She made everything easy and did a fantastic job watching our dogs over the weekend. She sent pictures and update messages the entire stay to make sure we had no concerns about our dogs. She definitely went above and beyond. We will definitely be using her services again.”

5. Shelbie M.

“Despite booking with little notice, she made time to come meet the animals before her scheduled sitting. She kept us well informed of everything and all four of our animals loved her, including our German shepherd that can be a true handful sometimes. We got plenty of pictures during her stay and we'll definitely be entrusting out animals to her again in the future!”


6. Maya G.

“Maya is an incredible sitter! She is very confident and knowledgeable with my 92 pound pup. I am normally nervous leaving him with others because he does not do well with other dogs, but Maya put me to ease when we met. She sent frequent updates and pictures throughout her stay with my pup, which was very nice for a nervous mom :) thank you Maya for keeping my big boy happy and taking care of him so well!”

“Kayleigh is one of the best. My dogs absolutely love her and felt comfortable the first time they met her. She has an instant connection with animals and I would trust her time and time again to watch my baby girls (a wild Boxer and a laid back and loving Shih Tzu). Thank you for loving my girls the way I do, Kayleigh!”


15. Ashley R.

“Words can’t even express how grateful we are that we found Ashley. She truly cares for pets and it was so relieving to know they were well cared for while we had a trip for a family member in the hospital. It was one less thing to worry about, which is exactly what we needed. She was always at our home several times a day and took time with them giving companionship which was so important to us. Our kids really are thankful for her sending updates about their fay and photos & videos of the pets. It made them smile each time. It’s just so sweet to see how much she cares and helped our family.”

“Audra stayed at our house and provided excellent care for Emma. We received daily "good morning" pictures of Emma and "check-ins" which provided us peace of mind. Audra's communications were clear and very friendly. Audra was clean and tidy and even took out our trash on trash-day. We highly recommend Audra and will use her again. Thanks!”


19. Tiffany H.
About: Hi, my name is Tiffany! I'm looking for fur babies to love on, play with and go for walks with. I am a stay at home mom so I have lots of time to love on your fur baby. I'm also okay with being a poop picker upper!!! I have a 8 year old golden retreiver who is getting on the older side but is as sweet as can be! She would love to have another dog to hang out and chill with. I have done some training when our dog was a puppy. We used the clicker and gave lots of yummy treats. Which I'm happy to do with your dog. I also have lots of energy to run around, play fetch and go for lots of walks. . I am a stay at home mom who works part time. So I will have plenty of time to walk your dog/dogs, love on them and play with your fur babies. I will make sure they have plenty of water and food. I have a fenced in yard and a golden retriever to keep your fur baby company. The dogs are welcome to roam the house and they must be good with kids.
