1. Amanda G.

“Amanda was very reliable with our two cats. She sent us daily briefings and photos. We are very pleased with her work and will probably reach out to her again in the future.”


2. Jessica J.

“I would highly recommend Jessica. She is very caring with my spoiled girls & they are so happy to see her when she comes to visit. She is responsive, flexible & professional.”


3. Emma G.
“I'm delighted to share my daughter's caring of our pet's over the years. We owned a Cat (Jack) when Emma was younger. She took on the responsibility at a young age of caring for Jack. We currently have a Westie (Bella), we got her when Emma was 8 years old. At this young age she was able to help out with training and care for Bella and she taught her all her tricks! As time went on she has taken care of Bella when I am away from home. She takes her to vet appointments, on walks and even cleans up when Bella is sick. We also owned a Hedgehog (GusGus), she took caring of feeding, cleaning the cage and playing with GusGus. She loves animals, always has. She is a caring pet owner. Her love, compassion and sense of responsibility are exemplary.”


4. Carolyn K.

“We chose Carolyn because she had golden retrievers of her own and would know exactly what to do for Bailey. She checked in at the right times and followed our directions and sent some beautiful pictures. Bailey looked very happy to have her there. She was very easy to communicate via text. I would definitely recommend her to anyone in this area that needed dog sitting. I am hoping that I can use her again when we go away in August.”


5. Ty E.

“Ty has been walking my dog Katie for a while and she loves him. He also offers great rates for overnight dog sitting and that has worked out really well for me. I trust Ty with Katie, she is very comfortable with him.”


6. Michaela L.

“Michaela was phenomenal! We weren’t worried at all about leaving our cats knowing she’d check on them. They warmed up to her quickly too! We’ll definitely book with her again 😊”


7. Lori T.

“My husband and I have known Lori for over 30 years as a friend and loving pet parent! She has been wonderful with our little guy and recently sat for him for a week. Being extremely protective of our little guy, we wanted him to have all the love and affection he gets daily. We knew he would get that! We would highly recommend Lori for all the caring and attention your pet would surely receive”

“Samantha helped to drop visit our cats for a week. She was kind and easy to communicate, also was experienced for cat daily care. She even helped us to bring in the packages while we’re away. Appreciate her help and care!”


16. Arianna D.
“Arianna is the best! She has watched my pitbull mix rescue (who can be a lot!) on multiple occasions and he always comes home happy and well taken care of. I’d recommend her to anyone and will certainly have Bruschi stay with her again!”


17. Cassandra Y.

“Cassandra is the best there is! Cassandra was amazing at communicating with me through the entire pet sitting process. Before leaving for my trip, she made sure to schedule a meet and greet with my cats and discuss important details for their care, some of which I had not even thought of. She was great with sending me reminders and check ins as we got closer to my departure date. I was so busy with work that it was such a relief she took the initiative to follow up with me. I felt so reassured about leaving my kitties for the first time. While I was away she took amazing care of my kitties and sent me pictures and updates. I felt so at ease knowing Cassandra was watching my pets. Cassandra is professional and personable. She is compassionate, sweet and thoughtful and I am eternally grateful I found her!”


18. Melissa B.
“Melissa is awesome! She is reliable and trustworthy, and our pets love her. She sends the best pictures, and we know our fur babies are well cared for when she’s there.”


19. Sam B.

“A gracious, very responsible person. We are so happy to have met her and will continue to call on her to help us with our ‘3 fur faces’ She brings a lot of credibility to Rover.com!”


20. Paige W.

“Incredible! Paige was very accommodating to exactly what I asked with her coming into my home and leaving. She takes Charlie on lovely walks and send me pictures and I feel very grateful I have her to take care of my dog. Paige is very trustworthy and follows all direction. Thank you”
