1. Tracy E.


“Once again, Tracy dropped in on our fur-babies while we were out of the country. Definitely reliable/dependable, and helps put your mind at ease when you're away from home and want to leave your fur-babies safe in the comfort of their own home.”


2. Wes B.
“Wes is fantastic. My dog Sam really enjoys his visits and spending time with the other dogs Wes cares for. It's been a really good experience with Wes! Thank you.”


3. Edmy N.

“We have used Edmy several times now to check in on our cat while we are out of town. Edmy is extremely reliable and trustworthy and communicative. My cat is pretty low maintenance but they always go above and beyond - checking our feeder, auto litter box, bringing in packages and mail. Would always recommend this Rover!”


4. Brooklyn P.

“Brooklyn is awesome. Takes great care of the house and me importantly Edmund, my dog. He now like for her in the guest room! Hahaha. I'd say he's happy with her service as well.”


5. Lisa B.

“This is the second time I’ve booked with Lisa, I’m so thankful she could watch over my pets while I was out of town. She’s such a lifesaver! I’ll be using her again I’m sure!”


6. Tonie B.


“Highly recommend! Upon reading the report card from Tonie, a comment was made from another dog owner, "Wow, you got a good rover." I was so nervous leaving my dogs, especially my ailing senior. When my normal dogsitter cancelled last minute, I was very hesitant having a stranger watch my dogs. Tonie did a great job. I actually prefer her over my other sitters.”


7. Jennifer T.


“Jennifer is a favorite of mine and the dogs. They both love her. She's fantastic to work with, incredibly reliable, and just everything you hope for. Thank you so much, Jennifer!”


8. Amelia C.

“Amelia is a thoughtful and responsible pet care taker. She was punctual and communicative. I immediately connected with her trustworthy nature and love of animals. Definitely will contact again!”

10. Jessica A.

“Jess is amazing with our dogs - she is a lifesaver for us!”


11. Mariana & Mark G.
“I wholeheartedly recommend Mariana as a pet caregiver. She is not only incredibly responsible but also truly loving and attentive with animals. Whether it's feeding, walking, playing, or just providing comfort, Mariana treats every pet as if it were her own. When she has interacted with my pets, I was consistently impressed by her reliability, patience, and genuine affection. She pays close attention to each pet’s unique needs and personalities, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Mariana’s natural connection with animals, coupled with her dependable nature, makes her an outstanding choice for anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet caregiver. You won’t find someone more devoted.”


12. Brandi & Luis R.

“I am so grateful for Brandi & Luis! I got updates about my cat while I was away. They went above and beyond with him. My cat doesn’t usually come out for guest, but he loved them!”


13. Stephanie M.
“Stephanie has been a pet owner for many years. She loves ALL animals! She has a very calm nature and lights up at the sight of any fur baby! She is a kind and compassionate human being and would be excellent with fur babies.”


14. Jada M.

“Jada is amazing, very understanding and thorough! I will definitely be contacting her for any future help I may need!!”


15. Kim L.
“Kim is very knowledgeable with anything animal / pet related. With prior work history and working and calling on several veterinarian clinics and animal / pet hospitals she’s gained an incredible wealth of knowledge from the doctors, vet technicians, groomers and office administration staff at these pet hospitals and clinics to where she can not only care for her own pets but, keep and care for others. Kim values her own animals as members of her family because she adores them so and would do anything to keep them healthy and happy. Kim has a very great set up within her home to where she can house some doggos to sit and would enjoy the extra company for herself and her two companions which are extra children. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing her for 15 years and I’ve always saw the love and care she has to tend to her dogs and cats throughout the years that without a doubt she would be a great fit for when you need to get out of town for a weekend or some overnights. She’s kept my dog Grumpus and he played so much with her two dogs in the fenced in back yard he was so tired when I brought him home. He had so much fun. Please consider her for your next pet sitter! She’s an amazing and loving human.”


16. Karissa H.

“She provided drop in visits twice a day while we were out of town for a week for our Great Dane and Black Lab. Will book her again for future travel needs.”


17. Barbara S.

“Barbara was doing recurrent drop in visits for both of my dogs 2x a week for a few months and she went above and beyond to ensure that both of my dogs were cared for. Not only did she fulfill their basic needs, but she also went the extra mile to engage in some playtime. Barbara was communicative and punctual! I highly recommend her services!”


18. Ella W.
“Ella is a huge animal lover. She has a high energetic and happy goldendoodle. I have had her watch my two dogs plenty of times!”


19. Rachel F.
“Rachel is an awesome person who takes great care of all animals and is very loving. She has her own cats and dogs and was a vet tech for a couple years. She has lots of experience with all breeds. She can handle big and small animals well.”


20. Heather K.
“Heather is a very caring and competent animal lover. She has cared for my dogs for many years anytime we needed her. We always knew they were in excellent hands. Heather is flexible and goes out of her way to provide the very best care. Highly recommend!!”
