I am a bit of a nervous dog mom when it comes to leaving my fur babies with anyone...Understatement...my pups are needy and full of character. Jess was AMAZING! She was so sensitive to what each dog needed. She communicated with me when necessary in a thoughtful manner. I have total confidence leaving my fur babies with her again!

Traci has great energy and will do everything in her power to make sure your pet is safe, comfortable and well taken care of. She is an exceptionally responsible, quick-learning sitter, and an excellent communicator. Plus, she seriously makes the best shortbread cookies I have EVER tasted. We will not hesitate to book her again!

Rose was flexible in meeting Rocky and myself for a meet and greet. She was friendly and was at ease with Rocky. We provided Rose with a list of medication for Rocky as well as his regular feeding schedule and she didn't have any questions or hesitation. Rose was self sufficient and we would welcome her to watch Rocky at our home again.

Laura was great! She truly loves dogs and we felt not only were our dogs well cared for, but they were also happy under her care. She followed their routine, which made them comfortable and had good communication with us throughout the trip. No small feat given that we had a three year old out and a puppy on different schedules.

Christy recently dog sat at our home for a week for our 7 year old mini doodle and we could not recommend her highly enough! She was reliable, communicative, responsive, great at expectation setting and clearly someone who genuinely loves caring for and spending time with pets. We knew our dog was in great hands with her and getting lots of love and attention. She even came to our home an extra time before our trip, to make sure our dog got to know and trust her. We would highly recommend her to anyone and would enthusiastically rebook with her in the future. Thank you, Christy!

We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Melissa from Rover. She took amazing care of our dog Luna, who was recovering from knee surgery and needed special attention. Melissa followed our instructions for Luna’s physical therapy three times a day, and kept us updated with photos and messages through the Rover app, which really gave us peace of mind. On top of that, she stayed at our house while we were away and left it spotless. We even came home to a sweet note and a flower on the counter. Melissa truly went above and beyond, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.

Natalie did an AMAZING job. My old dog was unfortunately having health issues and Natalie was there to love on her and picked up some medication from the vet to try to help her symptoms. I couldn't have hoped for a better substitute for me being there during this difficult time. If you use Natalie for dog sitting, you are definitely leaving your fur baby in capable AND very empathetic/loving hands.
