“Jennifer quickly came to our house, as requested, before the dog visit to get to know our dogs 🐶. She was very sweet from the first moment with them and we had a great visit. We definitely recommend her to anyone.”


“Thank you so much Nicole, you were great with our senior puppies. I can tell they enjoyed the walks and I'm glad you were able to handle them, knowing they can be a little rowdy. I will definitely recommend you to my friends and family. We'll for sure be using your services again, if you have us.”


“Kaylee was amazing while watching my kitten! She kept me updated with cute photos and videos, making me feel completely at ease. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals—my kitten had a blast and was well cared for. Kaylee went above and beyond, even tidying up around the house. I highly recommend her and would trust her with my kitten (or any animal) anytime! Thank you, Kaylee!”


“This was my first time needing to hire a pet sitter and leaving my cats alone for an extended period. I'm anxious about having people I don't know in my home even when I'm there, so I was already wary about hiring someone to come in and out while I was gone, but I didn't have a lot of options. I chose Roxanna for her fantastic reviews and repeat customers and she lived up to the hype! I met with her prior to booking and I really felt like she knew what she was doing and has a love for all the fur babies and that she was someone I could trust. She checked in daily and let me know what was going on, it was great peace of mind to know my cats were well cared for and that there was someone in and out of my house every day as well. Even my shy cat finally warmed up and came out to play in the last couple of days, so we're happy to have a new friend! Will definitely book with her in the future.”


“Tina is amazing, she was very loving and patient towards my dogs. I will recommend her to anyone! If you need pet sitting please consider Tina!”


“Thank you so much Abi! Great service and communication all around. Very patient with my fur baby and everything was perfect. You are amazing and I appreciate you caring for Piggy! Will definitely book again as I already have sent a request! ❤️”


“Great experience with Alina! Great communication and cared for our pup while we were out”


“I’m glad we found Emma on rover! The care and consideration she gave our cats was unmatched. You can tell she truly cares for others animals and made sure our two cats had everything they needed and more. Thank you for your kindness, Emma!”


“She’s the best! I’ve asked her last minute twice now, and she’s always available. My pup loves her, and I feel secure knowing a good person is taking care of her.”


“Megan takes great care of Hermes and takes lots of great pictures. I always know Hermes is in great hands when he gets a visit from Megan.”


“Always so caring with my furbaby🫶🏼”


“Danni has taken care of our cats numerous times the last couple years and always does a great job, giving wonderful updates. Highly recommend!”

“I’ve had natalie be our drop-in sitter for our dog emma for a while now. She’s great at communicating with me if there’s any mishaps or questions. She is a kind soul who loves dogs, and it really shows. She took great care of our pup. Sad to see her go (due to schedule differences), otherwise I would have loved to continue having her care for my dog. Never had a problem with her. 10/10 would recommend. Your pup would be on safe hands with her.”


“Ashlee was great! Took great care of my babies. Will definitely be using her services again.”


“Emily took such great care of our two cats for an entire week! Our kitties are slow to warm up to new people but they loved her immediately. She visited them twice a day and took care of feedings and litter box changes, but most of all, she gave them her time and attention so they weren’t lonely. We loved seeing the photo updates every day. Emily is extremely reliable and trustworthy, a great communicator, and has a very calm personality, which is great for nervous pets. 10/10 stars! Highly recommend!”



“Marcus was great! He does great with teddy who can be a handful, is always communicative and sends lots of pictures and videos. He was even able to accommodate my last minute trip for the holiday with no problem! Have booked him before and will definitely be booking him again!”


“Kristina was such a blessing last minute for me and my pups! I had to book a sitter last minute while out of the country and Kristina came to the rescue! She was very flexible and her communication was great. She took care of my pups and my home as if it was her own. We all loved her. Will definitely be booking again!!”


“Very caring with my pup and super attentive to the instructions I leave for my pup’s care. María has been my go-to sitter for a while now and I’ve never had any problems with her. Both me and my dog love her as a sitter🫶”


“Lynne and her husband provided exceptional care for my pets at my home while I was away. They were dependable, professional, and showed genuine care and love for my animals. It was such a relief knowing they were being walked, fed, and looked after so well. They kept me updated regularly with messages and photos, which made me feel completely at ease during my time away. I came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and a tidy home—what more could I ask for? I highly recommend Lynne and her husband for anyone needing reliable and compassionate pet care. I will definately be booking with them again. Five stars!”
