Top rated North Park house sitters

“Emily is an excellent sitter. My little crew is not the easiest to handle. While my cat is incredibly entertaining, she's not exactly cuddly, she just wants to get into as much mischief as possible. My dog is a beautiful sweet boy with anxiety issues. He really requires the right energy or his anxiety becomes aggravating (he barks excessively, chews inappropriately and paces). Thankfully, Emily's calm demeanor helps put him at ease. Throughout her stay Emily communicated regularly with plenty of pictures to share. She left my home neat and clean. I will use Emily again without hesitation.”


“Andrea did a phenomenal job! She has exceptional communication skills. I was constantly updated with great pictures of my happy pups. She spent plenty of time with them. She went above and beyond to ensure they were well taken care of and loved. I am always a bit nervous leaving Teddy and Ace for several days but she made it a seamless vacation. I am confident your pets will be in good hands! I would recommend Erika to anyone.”


“We used Jacob for house sitting our pup. Jacob is very accommodating and checked in with us regularly. He helped us out while laddoo was sick. We believe laddoo had a great time with him. He was respectful of our place as well. Will book again.”


“Aleia was so wonderful taking care of our dog Milo! She was as super communicative, shared photos of their adventures together, and Milo loved her. Would definitely hire Aleia again!”


“Very prompt, adjustable as to your preferences, considerate of your pet’s needs, and many video and photo updates :) Nach enjoyed his babysitter and would definitely book again and recommend Lauren.”


“Zoe was very attentive with our Lady; as a senior dog with a host of medications, (admittedly) her care was a real commitment and a challenge. We greatly appreciate Zoe for stepping in for such an undertaking during our time away.”


“Jamie has a magic touch! Took great care of my anxious cat, whose normally quite shy around new people. I came home to a very cheerful kitty, and would highly recommend him for your fur baby.”


“Cole is an outstanding dog and house sitter. He took care of my husky for 2 weeks while I was outside of the country. Communicated well. Everything was perfect when I returned home. Highly recommend.”


“Joseph lived in my apartment while taking care of my golden retriever. He is highly reliable, taking her for walks, feeding her and grooming her. He respected my apartment, leaving everything tidy and clean I feel he is trustworthy and can be counted on not only to take the minimal care of my dog but also to engage socially with her and minimize her stress (she has separation anxiety) with a new person. I recommend him totally.”


“Andre is a gem! This was my first Rover experience, and it couldn’t have gone better. Andre was so professional, courteous, and caring. It’s clear he loves spending time with all of our animal friends. He was communicative throughout my trip with pictures and updates on how things were going, he left my home spotless, and it sounds like he brought great energy to my senior set-in-his-ways pup. I can’t recommend Andre enough, and I’m so excited and relieved to have established having someone so great nearby for future Neville care needs.”


“Hanna is a treat to have as our pet sitter! She was great with our babies and very respectful of our space. We came home to a clean house and calm, happy pets which is truly a gift. 🩷”


“Jillian was fantastic! She helped me when I was in a serious bind. She’s responsive and respectful of my home. Mostly importantly she is kind, patient, and attentive to my dog who has a big personality. I would highly recommend her.”


“Sofia is every pet sitters ideal care taker. She is compassionate, responsible, speaks the language of animals, has strong attention to detail and is trustworthy. I chose Sofia to watch my dogs because after we met for a meet and greet, she completely wow’d me with how quickly my [very skittish, scared and apprehensive] pup warmed up to her. In addition, after I missed my flight, Sofia stayed an extra night to take care of my two dogs and without any hesitation. In the future, I will do whatever I have to do to make sure she watches my dogs, and you should, too!”



“Adam is the best house guest and pet buddy. I know he is loved and adored because he gets the same pile on treatment we do as evidenced by the photos he has sent. He leaves the home immaculate and is very timely, caring, and communicative.”


“Serena was a great sitter for our zoo. She was very attentive to their needs, gave us multiple updates with photos per day, and let us know anything and everything that was going on with them. She took great care of our house while we were gone and went above and beyond leaving it in the ideal condition for us returning from vacation. We would absolutely book with Serena again and our animals would look forward to it.”


“Lou did a fantastic job! She was very patient and hands on with Winnie. Winnie can be anxious at times and Lou was very understanding and it was an immense comfort to know that. Would have her sit again!”


“Sam is an incredibly awesome sitter! Extremely communicative and sent text updates and pics throughout the day, which I greatly appreciated. I came home to a happy, less anxious, and slightly tired pup, from all the play and cuddles he got with Sam. I've already spoken with her about being a regular sitter and cannot recommend her enough!”



“Jenna is great! She was very responsive and our dog loved her. When we got home, it was obvious that he has been well taken care of and enjoyed his time with Jenna. Would very highly recommend!”
