Oli was great. She sent pics and updates daily, which we really appreciate. She stayed at our house the entire time we were gone. We have a very old dog and a neurotic dog and 4 cats. She provided love and care to our pets and home. I highly recommend.

Averi did a fantastic job house sitting our wide variety of pets while we were out of town! She communicated with us throughout or travels, sent photos, and ensured everyone was taken care of. Highly recommend her services to others in the area! She cared for our three dogs, large pig, chickens, duck and parrot!

Kyle took great care of my pup over the weekend. He made sure my dog’s normal routine was followed and spent lots of time giving him attention. Would recommend and will be booking again in the future.

Anna stayed at our house for a week to dogsit our American Staffie. He was a very sad boy the first couple days we were gone and by the time we got back, he was so sad that she had left that he refused to get out of the car when it was time to go for his first walk since she left. She took him for two walks a day, even had to bathe him when he rolled on a dead fish, and sent pix and texts to keep us updated. Now she’s one of only two people we call when we travel. Our dog loves her and we know that we can trust her to love on him while we’re gone and take great care of him!

Keaton was amazing with my pup! He picked him up to make it easier for me to get ready for my trip, sent pictures and videos, and walked my pup every day. He is very attentive, thoughtful, and caring. I’m so thankful!

carly did a wonderful job taking care of my two pups and my older kitty. my pups are high energy and high velcro so they need to walk about 6 miles a day and a lot of cuddle time, she was more than happy to take care of their needs. carly sent a lot of pictures which i really appreciate and was on time for all of the check-ins we discussed. i’m a helicopter mom so i always like more messages and updates but she did a great job, i look forward to booking with carly again!

Robin is the best! She’s watched our pups several times, but this last time was a long 2 week stay & she went above and beyond! In addition to taking wonderful care of our needy dogs, she also made sure they were bathed before we got home, washed all their bedding and her own, got the mail, took care of the garbage, brought in our packages, watered plants, and picked up all of their poop outside. While we were away the upstairs AC stopped working & she was so gracious and flexible. She handled the situation perfectly and we are so grateful for her understanding. Robin is the real deal- she is so kind and has a great work ethic. We are so thankful for her & anyone would be lucky to have her watch their pets! Thanks again Robin :)

Alex was great with the dogs and was responsive to our messages. Was very impressed that he came over for a meet and greet and was taking notes and asking questions. Left the home so clean we couldn't even tell someone had been there. Highly recommend

Lynne was a great house sitter and did an excellent job taking care of our fur baby. She shared photos every day and even left a sweet message to welcome us home. It was comforting knowing our geriatric lab had company, especially in the evening, while we were out of town. I would highly recommend Lynne and look forward to rebooking with her in the future!

Ryan was awesome. He took excellent care of our dogs and cat and was so mindful of the fact that my older dog has some anxiety. When we got home our pups seemed happy and not stressed in the slightest. I would not hesitate to book him again and I appreciate how communicative he was during our time out of town. Thank you Ryan!

Emily was wonderful with my two large dogs, who have a lot of energy and have some dog reactivity to be managed, so they are not the easiest dogs to look after. I was very nervous about leaving them with a new person (first time using Rover!) but Emily had come recommended and I felt much more comfortable after speaking with her and doing a meet-and-greet. She kept me updated with photos and video throughout the stay and I returned to two very happy content pups. Can confidently recommend Emily as a conscientious and attentive sitter.
