“I couldn’t be happier with the care my pets, 2 large-breed dogs and our cat, received from Courtney. From the moment we met, I knew they were in great hands. Courtney is not only professional but also incredibly caring and attentive. It’s clear that Courtney genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make sure they are well taken care of. I came home to a happy, healthy, and relaxed pets. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-notch pet care. I will definitely be booking again in the future! Thank you, Courtney, for treating Guinness, Luca and Sefi like family!”
“Amelia was fantastic. We will 100% be booking with her again. She took great care of our baby while we were away and took amazing care of the house. The house was cleaner than when we left it. She took pics daily and gave us a daily report. We are so lucky we found Amelia to watch our Willow. Thank you so much, Amelia!”
“We feel so lucky to have met Jenna! Jenna is someone you can really count on. Norris had a great time with her and everything was nice when we got home. We received pictures each day, which is SO helpful in making the vacation a good one. I can’t recommend Jenna enough.”
“Julia was so great with our blind, diabetic elder dog Buggs. She spent lots of time with him and kept him on a schedule with meds and sent me lots of updates and photos. She also helped water our trees and new flowers during the hot spell. She’s the best!!”
“Nyree was an amazing sitter for my little guy! She made me and my pup feel so comfortable and confident about the stay. I was gone for a week in Europe and Nyree sent me daily videos and pictures. Not only was my dog happy and healthy when I got home but she left the condo immaculate! Definitely will be using Nyree again - she’s a 12/10!!!”

“Autumn is incredible! She took extra food care of my dog while I was away. He had recently started having seizures and was on new medicine and she handled it so well. She's very communicative and even worked on my dog's leash walking!”
“Jessica was fantastic. She stayed in our apartment and was super communicative and responsive organizing the logistics, understood everything we explained and we felt reassured after doing the meet and greet that he will be left in good hands. She sent photos at least 3X / day, it was clear that Tucker loved her as he was snuggling up next to Jessica on the couch. Will definitely book her again, and I recommend her without reservation to anyone looking for a sitter!”

“Tonia was so amazing & helpful! She was so good about keeping in contact and very quick to respond when we reached out. It was our first time leaving our pets with a rover sitter and I’m so hopeful we can continue to use Tonia every time we’re away. Our house was in the exact shape we left it and the animals were so happy & well taken care of. Such a good experience”

“Rachel did an excellent job watching my 95lb dog, Huck. She was responsible, reliable, and responded quickly. The day before she came to watch Huck, our AC broke and she rolled with it. The entire time I was gone I was at ease knowing Rachel was watching Huck and she sent lots of updates and photos. I would definitely book with her again!”

Patrick was wonderful taking care of our dog and our home. He was patient and kind allowing our dog to warm up to him. He kept the house spotless and even made up the guest bed with clean sheets upon his departure. We felt confident that our home and dog were well taken care of!
Tate has watched my sweet boy a number of times now and every time is such a wonderful experience!! It is so comforting knowing my baby is in such good hands. Always great communication with check ins and photos, and Tate is just a delight to work with. Highly recommend :)
I cannot say enough nice things about Laura, she did an AMAZING job watching my dog for the long weekend. I got a ton of photos, a daily video updates, and a daily summary of all the fun activities her and Pringle did each day! Plus, she left my place practically spotless which was amazing to come home too! My dog is truly sad to have me home, as she had such a great time with Laura! Cannot recommend her enough!
The experience with Erin has been exceptional. It was clear that Erin would be more than a sitter; Erin is a canine concierge. We returned home to a happy duo, relaxed dogs are a relief, and that's exactly what the our dog's experienced, thanks to Erin. Erin treated the dog's as her own and it's believed the dog's still anticipating their next adventures. If your seeking a sitter who exceeds expectations and understands the uniqueness of your furry loved ones, look no further. Erin is highly recommended! More papering will definitely be requested soon! Thank you, Erin.
Tatiana, hung out with our crew of 5 sighthounds (whippets and greyhounds) at our AirBnB for 12 hours when we were in town for a family wedding an hour away. It was too far to drive back and forth during the day, so knowing someone was there to feed them dinner, potty them and let’s face it … watch them nap 😂 was a relief and allowed us to enjoy my step daughter’s big day. Tatiana was thoughtful, calm and accommodating to the needs of our crew. She cleaned all their dinner bowls and food containers and we came home closer to midnight to a calm crew of doggos. We can’t thank her enough and hope we have another reason to need her next time we come to town with everyone. ❤️
KaShonna was a great pet sitter! She watched our cat Luka for a week+ and we felt so happy knowing our kitty was in good hands. We appreciated the daily photos and her letting us know about a water backup in our apartment. KaShonna left our place super clean, too. Will definitely book again! :)
Hannah went above and beyond for my little dude!! I left town for a month and Hannah watched him for three weeks while I was gone. He loved Hannah! Hannah was super helpful and took great care of him, even consulting with me on some ways to help out his hairballs. Hannah was a trooper and prioritized Morty's health and well-being even when the power went out at my building for a day during a heat wave. Hannah is communicative, caring, and great at what she does! I look forward to having her sit for Morton Salts again the next time I have to go out of town.
Alisha is a wonderful communicator and was so helpful in being available to offer last minute pet care for Lola and Blossom. She is active and kept my energetic and friendly (read, hungry for attention while awake) dog exercised and entertained. Would definitely have sit again!
