“Bonnie was so great!!! It was the first time leaving our dog home for a weekend and she took such great care of him. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their dog. She is exceptional!!”

“First time Rover user and Jessica was absolutely fantastic with my two girls. I appreciate how accommodating and understanding she was. I hope to use her again!!”

“Erin responded to me for my last minute needs. I have two dogs one with special needs. She handled them so well. Thank you so much for your kindness and professionalism. Will use again”

“Will be booking again! 5/5! I can't say enough good things about Lauren as a dog sitter! She is incredibly reliable, attentive, and clearly has a deep love for animals. My dog warmed up to her immediately, and I felt completely at ease knowing that he was in such capable hands. Lauren went above and beyond, providing regular updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. It's such a relief to know that I can trust her to care for my fur baby as if he were her own. I highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a top-notch dog sitter!”

“Thank you Dylan for always doing such an awesome job with my kitties!! In the photos you take both Frankie and Rosie look like they’re having such a fun play time with you!! It’s very comforting knowing they are getting such great care!! You are the best!! Thanks a million!!”

“Mikayla is the best pet sitter!! This is my 3rd time having her watch my 2 cats during a short trip and I felt so comfortable knowing that she would be taking care of them. From taking photos of my cats playing with toys--one she even bought for them!!--to giving me updates on how they were doing, Mikayla went above and beyond. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter who will not only watch your pets but treat them like one of her own!”
