1. Jamie M.

“Long long loooooong overdue (sorry)! Jamie is superb, highly recommend to take the best care of your furry darlings! She’s super fun, communicative, and took excellent care of Stella! I always have peace of mind that my pup is in caring hands with Jamie! Two thumbs way up, all the stars!”


2. Sarah O.

“Sarah was so sweet and patient with my dog. My dog is territorial with new people when the come into my apartment, but had no issue warming up to her and even took a nap while sitting on the couch with Sarah. Goes to show how kind Sarah is. 10/10 recommend Sarah as a dog sitter.”


3. Katie G.
“Katie took amazing care of our dog and two cats! She stayed at our house while we were out of town and left everything so tidy, even putting the sheets in the wash for us. Our dog warmed up to her very quickly which isn’t always easy with him! She also knew how to handle our ornery cat so well. I was so impressed with Katie and hope she will take care of our boys again!”


4. Brittany S.

“Brittany is the best! This is the 2nd time I've used her when I travel abroad for over 2 weeks. All three of my dogs (all on multiple meds, 2 in diapers, 2 elderly, 1 special diet, 4x day need to go out) get all the care, attention, play and love they need. She communicates well without being intrusive, sends me pictures, and alerts me if anything is going on of concern with the house. It's difficult to put a price on the peace of mind I have when she is holding down the fort so I can enjoy my respite away. I will continue to use Brittany. I encourage you to book her for your next vacation.”


5. Cassandra G.
“Casie watches my babies every time I go out of town. I love that she gives me updates and spends time with them while I’m away. It gives me so much peace of mind to know I have someone coming into my home that I trust. Casie even brought them some toys and took a video for me while I was gone for several days, this put my mind at complete ease. Over the years she has become my go to person for anything I need with my dogs and cats. Casie is wonderful!”


6. Christina M.
“Christina has watched my two dogs multiple times over the past few years while I’ve been out of town. She does an excellent job and cares for them like her own. She goes above and beyond, taking them for numerous walks and sends updates. She keeps up with their feeding and supplements. She takes time to give lots of love and playtime. She is responsible and asks questions, I trust that anytime she watches my dogs they are in good hands. I never have to worry about them when Christina watches them.”


7. Faith E.

“Faith was so kind and our dogs were in great hands with her while we were away! She was able to come by the house a few days before to meet the boys, and needed very little additional help or direction after that. She stayed in our home all weekend and left it in better condition than when she arrived. She was also very responsive and answered messages quickly. We had some last minute travel plan changes and she was incredibly willing to accommodate and help. I will absolutely book with her again. Thank you Faith!”


8. Gabby V.

“Gabby was absolutely wonderful! For an over protective dog mom and first time Rover user, I could not have picked a better sitter. Gabby was quick to respond, answered all my questions, met with my dogs and I prior to sitting and made the process so easy. She spent extra time loving on the dogs and sent a lot of update photos. Gabby treated my dogs as if they were her own. If I could give her a 10 star rating I would! We will definitely be booking with Gabby for all of our dog sitting needs! ?”


9. Grace P.

“Grace took great care of our dog while we were away. She kept us up to date on how he was doing and was a very good communicator throughout the process. Highly recommend!”


10. Laken U.

“Laken was great with our Charlie boy! We will definitely use Laken in the future and highly recommend her services :)”


11. Kayla G.

“We had a great experience with Kayla! She stayed at our house with our pup for a long weekend. She sent lots of pictures and updates and kept our house neat and tidy. We will definitely be booking Kayla again for future occasions!”




12. Emily S.

“Absolutely wonderful !!”


13. Gabriella S.
“Gabby is truly a cat lover. She has had cats as pets her entire life and is now a great cat mom. She has taken care of our cat when we are away and I highly recommend her!”


14. Gina A.

“Gina was super kind and professional. She had great patience with my dog who can be barky to new people at first. She even cleaned up a mess when my dog had an accident from an upset tummy. Would recommend Gina to anyone!”


15. Sarah A.
“Sarah is just the sweetest! She will care for your fur baby as her own and your fur baby will love her too! My dog lights up when she comes in- my girl, Stellabear, approved!”


16. Breanna W.

“Breanna took great care of our dogs and house! Dont hesitate to use her services. ?”


17. Anita A.
“Anita is very trustworthy – do not hesitate to trust her in your home and with your pets. Anita is very loving, caring and kind who will give your pets the attention they deserve when you are away. Also, while she assisted with house sitting and dropping visits, she always makes sure if she cleaned up after my pup and always left my home looking better than it was before. Anita is the best!🦮😄🐾❤️”


18. Olivia W.

“Olivia was great! She kept us updated throughout the day and shared photos which we loved. We felt at ease on our trip knowing Olivia was taking care of our babies!”


19. Hannah G.

20. Joey M.
