4. Joseph O.


“This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous. I shouldn't have been, because Joseph and Meg were awesome! They sent us frequent updates on how Maddie was doing and even helped with a few things around the house. I'd definitely recommend them and plan to use them again. Thanks guys!”


5. TJ R.

“TJ did an amazing job with both of my dogs! We did a pre-meet and he did great to make sure we were comfortable with him and answer any questions we had. He was real communicative and sent pictures of them and everything they did. Usually the typical sitters won’t really send anything but TJ went above and beyond. Definitely recommend him in a heartbeat.”


6. Cassandra Y.

“Cassandra is WONDERFUL! My Gracie is a very reactive young dog, and Cassandra handled her very well from the very start. She gave me reports and photos throughout her stay with Gracie, and also showed me several very helpful tips and tools that I can use myself with my dog. Highly recommend!”


7. Teri P.


“Teri spent 2 days with my dog, who’s a little bit of a nervous nut but he absolutely loved Teri when she cane for an initial meeting. She sent updates and great pictures, and left the home in great shape. I would definitely use Teri’s services again. Thank you!”


8. Ryan B.
“Ryan not only has watched my pet multiple times, but is one of the biggest animal lovers I know. He doesn’t do it for the money he does it because he enjoys spending time with the animals.”


9. Samantha J.
“Experienced and dependable, this sitter cares for each pet as if they are her own. Pets seem to love her, as she makes sure each session is safe, fun and entertaining. Highly recommend!”


10. Kadence W.

“Kadence is amazing! She stayed at my house with my 2 pups, one who is reactive and one who is old and sick, and took great care of them. She went above and beyond for my girls and I truly appreciate it!”


11. Isin S.
“Isin is a wonderful dog sitter. I travel for work sometimes and i leave my Pekingese Lola with her sometimes. Lola is very active for a small dog and requires a bit time spent at kitchen to prepare her food as she did not eat dog meal. Isin did all correctly and even sent photos of the meal prepared and also photos from lola eating. I highly recommend Isin dog sit service.”


12. Lacie S.
“Lacie is a responsible, bright and friendly person. She has had dogs her whole life and has watched them and loved them. She’s is used to watching big dogs including a 100lb lab, a pit bull, a 65 lb mutt and a smaller dog breed unknown. She loves dogs and snuggles them and gives affection. She makes a great dog sitter.”


13. Laura J.

“Laura was friendly, flexible with times and very warm with our dog. She played with our dog with dog puzzles on her own initiative and kept us posted with pictures and details throughout the evening. Laura has grown up around animals and is knowledgeable about them. I would certainly ask her to take care of our puppy again.”


14. Ashley P.

“Ashely was amazing with our pets Rosie and Harry. She communicated every day about how their day and night went. We entrusted her with not only our pets but our home. She is top notch and made our trip to Colorado for our sons Wedding reassuring and relaxing.”


15. Ashley E.
“I highly recommend Ashley for any pet sitting needs. She is extremely reliable and the only person I’ve felt comfortable leaving my fur baby with whenever I've had to travel. She is naturally super caring and patient. I've seen her effortlessly manage multiple dogs when she's had to watch friends' and families' dogs. If anyone I know were looking for a sitter, I’d recommend Ashley in a heartbeat!”


16. John & Donna T.
“John and Donna T provide a reliable and dependable dog caregiver service. They are attentive and caring for each individual dog's needs. As they've had their own dogs, they know how precious each individual dog means.”


17. Carolyn E.

“5 stars across the board.... We felt so comfortable with Carolyn house sitting and dog sitting... She sent so many photos and our dog looked so happy... Amazing communication and super caring!!! Carolyn will be our "go-to" hopefully long term”


18. Maggie S.

“Maggie was great with our 6 month old black lab! She made sure he got all the walks and attention while we were away for 4 nights! And she made sure we got cute picture updates throughout her stay with him, which was very reassuring!”


19. Michael C.
About: I've had dogs my entire life and have also taken care of friends & coworkers pets on several occasions. I've trained my own dog in an office environment. I work fully remote so it's very easy for me to plan my day around pets. I have walking trails all around my building and plan out several walks throughout the day. My dog plays very well with other dogs so it would be a good form of stimulation throughout the day. I also like taking the dogs out for multiple walks throughout the day to get fresh air.




20. Christine M.

“Christine did a great job caring for my dog, managing daily meds and even socializing him by taking him on adventures after checking in with us! Highly recommend, she is a lovely sitter.”
