1. Justin L.

“Justin is great! I just started booking him this month and have already used his services twice. Banksy is a sweet girl but has some issues with other dogs but Justin hasn’t any problems with her so far. He’s responsive, respectful, and I’ve always come home to a clean house and a happy dog. I’m so glad I found him and will definitely be booking with again soon!”


2. Karen B.

“Karen was so great !! She has great communication and I could tell in the pictures she sent that my pups were loved . She truly allowed us to enjoy our trip .”




3. Cheryl K.


“We are sooo thankful for Cheryl! Our dog requires a lot of extra care and attention for her urinary incontinence, and we got so lucky finding Cheryl. Her extensive experience caring for animals at all life and health stages helped ease our worry and stress leaving our fur babies home for a long weekend. She took great care of our babies, and we came home to a clean house and happy fur babies. Couldn’t ask for better, thank you!!!”




4. Jenna H.

“We were traveling with our 2 dogs and Jenna came over and sat with them while we were able to go explore. She was on time very professional and took very good care of the dogs. Would highly recommend Jenna to care for your pets 😊”


5. Nikoleta T.

“Nikoleta was great. Our pup Lu took to her right away and we knew he’d be in good hands. She left the house spotless as well after staying the night.”


6. Migle M.

“Above and beyond! Sent funny pics every day and played with him a bunch. Has a big dog at home too, so was super comfortable with my energetic boy. Thank you lots!”


7. Martha C.

“Highly recommend Martha! This was my first time leaving my pup with someone I didn’t know, and she put all my worries to bed after the meet and greet. Sent daily pictures and messages, so I knew my dog was having a nice time :) Very attentive to the details I laid out and responsive to any questions or concerns I had throughout the entire experience and left my house just like it was when she arrived. I would book her again and would easily recommend her to anyone else!”


8. Elise D.

“I can not recommend Elise enough! She watched our dogs during our wedding and even helped organize them for pictures. She was SO kind, patient, and loving with our dogs. Even with the chaos of the day, she was a ray of sunshine. She made our wedding stress-free and we can not thank her enough for that!”


9. Rachel H.

“We're so glad we found Rachel! She stepped in after our usual dog walker moved away. She is friendly and communicative. We've become repeat customers.”


10. Alex L.

“Alex was such a great help! She was super communicative and always gave me updates without having to ask. She even cleaned and emptied the trash before leaving even though she didn’t need to. I know Rufus was well taken care of and will definitely use her again :)”


11. Ulyana S.


“Ulyana was wonderful! She went above and beyond to make the timing work when we needed a last-minute sitter for our dog. And she had a lovely calm and reassuring presence that was perfect for our anxious dog. He was happy to have her stay with him, and so were we!”


12. Abby B.

“Abby is awesome! She sent a bunch of photos and updates while we were away, giving us peace of mind as 1st-timers on Rover. Abby was incredibly kind and respectful as our house guest for in-home sitting. Your pets are in excellent hands with her and we couldn’t recommend her more!”


13. Niyah L.
“I’ve known Niyah for years, and their love for animals is unmatched. They’re responsible, caring, and always make sure pets feel safe and loved! She does a great job!”


14. Kathryn R.

“Kathryn was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond while taking care of our dogs. Not only did she walk them and play fetch with them every day (which they loved), but she also took the time to clean the entire house and even picked up all the poop in our backyard. I couldn't have asked for a more caring and responsible sitter. Our dogs were so happy, and coming home to such a spotless house was a bonus. Highly recommend Kathryn —we’ll definitely be booking her again!”


15. Chandra L.

“This was my first time leaving Duke (my 80lb rescue pit) with anyone for longer than an overnight. She accommodated us at the last minute. I was so worried about making sure I had the right person to care for him since he’s an expert at “working” people over. Miss Chandra is definitely a Duke whisperer. She was absolutely able to handle him, even though he’s tough to walk. And I was so grateful she sent me pics everyday to check-in because I’m such a neurotic dog mom. The house was spotless when we came home. She even drew a super cute pic of Duke on our whiteboard. Miss Chandra is definitely on my list for future out of town trips. I’m going to send her my list of dates very soon!”


16. Alaina C.

“Alaina was amazing! She took very good care of the dogs and our house. Alaina kept us informed and sent lots of pics which we loved. Will book again.”


17. Adam H.
“Adam was amazing !!!! This was our first time using an in person sitter and certainly won’t be the last ! Adam was quick to respond , came and met our zoo before our departure. He was timely , kind , and communicative our entire trip. Lots of photos and our animals seemed happy as could be. He was even able to spend an extra night when our travel plans required an unexpected night . If you are nervous about having someone stay , Adam is an excellent person , trustworthy , and 10/10 would recommend him to anyone !”


18. Leora G.

“Leora is super responsible, responsive, and took excellent care of my dog (and home). She made sure my insecure rescue pittie felt safe and comfortable while I was away. Highly recommend her!”


19. Semya C.
“Semya is an exceptional pet caregiver who truly goes above and beyond. We left our dog, Gentleman, in her care for a week while we were out of town, and we couldn’t have been more pleased with how she handled everything. Semya kept us updated throughout the week, sending us regular pictures and updates, which gave us peace of mind knowing our pup was in great hands. Gentleman, who struggles with separation anxiety, was initially nervous, but Semya’s calming presence and dedication made all the difference. By the end of the first day, he was comfortable and playing happily with her. Whenever we need a sitter, we always call Semya first, because we know she’ll provide the best care for our pup. We are incredibly grateful for her thoughtful and loving attention—she made our time away stress-free!”


20. Laura B.

“We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Laura. She cared for our house and our dog seamlessly with excellent communication. The house and yard looked perfect when we returned. She sent cute photos and videos daily. We will definitely use her services in the future. A++”
