6. Ke’Vin J.
“Ke'vin was very flexible with scheduling when we had to find someone quickly to leave town for a family emergency. With little notice, he came to our house for a first meeting and then started the next day for a overnight sitting service for five days. Our senior dog is always afraid of new people but Ke'vin sent videos of her and it's clear she warmed up quickly to him and really liked him. He gave her meds with no issue. I'm glad we found Ke'vin on Rover!”
7. Ute M.
“Ute is a remarkable pet sitter. She looked after my two Shih Tzu pups for a week while I was out of town. Showed up to my home 2 or 3 times a day to spend time with them at reasonable hours of the day for potty, feeding and company. Ute is very reliable and responsible. She would go beyond typical pet sitting services and provide notes and pictures by email or text msg every other day describing how the pups were doing. I would definitely recommend Ute to look after your pets.”
8. Ethan R.
“Ethan took care if my fur baby while we were on vacation and now takes her out for walks. My baby doesn't like anyone but loves Ethan! He makes sure she has enough water and treats when she does a good job. I find him to be not only responsible and reliable but my fur baby loves him too”
9. Kathryn G.
“I was a bit nervous to have Kathryn watch our dogs. Not because I did not trust her, but because my two are a handful and a half. My female is super active, and my male has physical and psychological issues. Katie did fantastic!! She made me feel so at ease while out of town. She was great with our two devils. I would HIGHLY recommend her. We look forward to having her back.”
10. Jillian F.
“Jillian is a professional! She is great with communicating updates and pictures. I trust her 100%. It is comforting to know Summer is in good hands when I travel.”
11. Mya A.
About: I’ve only being doing sitting for a few friends in the past year but I will be sure to take care of your fur babies and keep them as safe as possible I’m currently working from 9am until 4pm. I’m available during my lunch breaks for short walks and after work to give special attention to your pets. As for the moment I wouldn’t be offering this service to clients do to my living situation but this option will be available as soon as possible.
12. Jessica J.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, we currently have 4, I’ve helped train them, I love all breeds, but I also can ignore the puppy eyes when they need correcting. I’m currently unemployed so I have all the time to fit the needs of any animal, baby or senior. I do go home every morning when I sit to feed my ferret. We have 4 dogs, however one doesn’t get along with new animals, so I will only be available to house sit. I’ve dog-sat for many family friends, and am good about keeping to the pet’s schedule.
13. Dannette W.
“Dannette was absolutely incredible! My Pitt-mix is reactive around other dogs and can be a handful on walks, and Dannette barely batted an eye. She sent daily updates that let me know she was really paying attention to Gemma, which set me at ease. All of that would have been enough for a good review, but the pièce de résistance was how nice and clean my apartment was when I got home. My flight had been delayed and I was not looking forward to having to wash my sheets once I got home. But lo and behold, Dannette had not only washed my sheets, but she had also made my bed! 😭🥲 The apartment was clean, with no weird smells or suspicious stains— just clear signs of her level of care. I could also tell from Gemma’s energy that she had actually been taken on walks and well taken cared for, which hasn’t always been the case with other sitters. Suffice to say— 10/10 would book again! 🙏🏻”
14. Lindsey M.
“This was our first time having Lindsey watch our 2 dogs and housesit overnight. She gave us a courtesy call the day before to confirm what time we needed her to arrive and what time we expected her to stay with the dogs the folllowing day. Our dogs have seperate medical prescription needs which I provided. She took the extra measure to recap their needs via text after she arrived at our home. She sent me updates and pictures during her stay which put me at ease. She was very conscientious and showed how much she cared for the wellbeing of my dogs. We were very pleased with her service. So much so that we have already booked her for a future dog/housesitting . We highly recommend Lindsey for your petcare needs.”
15. Tanya K.
“Tanya was the best. She stayed at our house watched our pets and house for a week. We have a dog with severe mobility issues, an 18 year old cat and 2 younger cats — all with unique needs and 2 that require meds. She was so wonderful with our fur family and home. HIGHLY recommend her services to anyone who cares about their pets being well taken care of and loved. She also dealt with packages and cleaning people and day to day household responsibilities with ease. She sent us pictures and kept us updated daily. Thank you!!!”
16. Henry J.
“Henry took excellent care of our dog while we were out of town. He sent us multiple updates daily and kept us informed on how our dog was doing.”

18. Alicia D.
“Alicia is the greatest! I do military re-enactments throughout the summer which are always on the weekend and not really pet friendly. I usually leave my dog Pax with Alicia on friday and pick him up on sunday. Never a problem my dog I think actually looks forward to going with her! Alicia is very attentive and affectionate. Alicia is always sending updates on how Pax is doing! I highly recommend Alicia!”
