Stacey did a fabulous watching our 2 anxious pit mixes and our cat. She sent regular updates and photos of all the pets. Our cat, Sherlock has been known to hide with pet sitters but he was sitting on her lap nightly which just shows what a great sitter she is. Definitely will be rebooking with her! Came home and the pets were happy and the house looked fabulous!

Chris was fantastic and highly recomend her! Our 6 month old pup scratched her eye the day before we left for vacation and we originally planned to board her, so we scrambled and found Chris the day before we left. She took excellent care of her, administered meds 3x per day, kept her in her cone, etc. Also was fantastic with communication too. We will absolutely use her in the future.

Linda was our petsitter while our family went on a day trip. One of our dogs is epileptic, and it makes me very anxious to leave her. Linda was great with our dogs and about communicating with us. I look forward to asking her to petsit again as soon as she’s available when we leave town! Thank you, Linda!

Caitlin stayed at my house a few days with my two dogs while I was on vacation. She was great with keeping me updated and of course keeping the dogs company. She took them on walks and gave them lots of snuggles. Snoopy and Kobe really enjoyed being around her, and she did a great job at caring for them.

Over the weekend, Ashlyn took excellent care of our three-legged pup, Bill. She provided regular updates and left our home in great condition. It was comforting to know our senior dog was at ease in his own environment!

Ellie did an amazing job looking after our pup and house while we were away. She sent pictures or videos each day of things Willy was doing and places they were walking. When we arrived back home, everything was clean and tidy in our house. Looking forward to having Ellie here again!

Kayla is THE BEST! She takes care of our pets like they’re her own, communicates phenomenally, and goes above and beyond. Our dog adores her, but the highest praise is that our cat, who has never come out from her hiding place for a stranger, LOVES KAYLA! Earning a nervous cat’s trust tells you everything you need to know!

Rus was maybe the best pet sitter we've ever had for our precious boys. He was so communicative, upbeat, engaging, and took his responsibilities very seriously but still made it fun for us and our dogs! Rus stayed with our two dogs (one a senior and one 3-yrs. old) for sixteen days in our home while we went overseas. Although this was our first time to hire Rus, I knew at our meet and greet he was going to be amazing and he showed me everyday why he's a 5-star sitter! Which is why it's so easy to give him the highest rating possible here and a rave review for how well he cared for our dogs like they were his own. If you can get him, I give him my full endorsement and will be hiring him again!

Kristen was great. I will definately use her again. I have 4 dogs and they all loved her. One of my dogs takes liquid medicine, an inhaler & eye drops, she did great giving all the medication. She sent lot's of pictures. My one dog had a seizure and she called and I walked her through it. She made feel comfortable leaving them with her. I love Kristen.

Angela stepped up and saved us very last minute after a family member who was scheduled to watch the dogs fell through. She was incredibly kind, paid great attention to detail, and the dogs obviously loved her. We could not have asked for a better experience, especially walking into it without prior Rover experience. She left our house very clean and it was obvious the dogs had great care the entire time. She communicated via pictures and detailed texts daily so we had zero worries while we were away. I would recommend Angela to any family home, and will book her again.

This is the first time I’ve come home to calm, happy dogs after a trip. Lisa did an amazing job with my two terriers, and i could tell from the photos that they felt safe. Tails were up, eyes were bright, and there was ample enrichment activities. I can’t thank Lisa enough!
