“Jennifer is an incredible sitter - attentive, thoughtful, patient, and truly en enjoys her time with Kirby. I appreciate her nature and feel completely at ease when she is with Kirby, who has a myriad of chronic health issues at 17. Thank you for caring for him (and me!) so well. 💜”

4. Brittany S.
“Brittany was great with Atlas. He's a high energy anxious German Shepard and she made sure he spent a ton of time playing and helped him relax. It was the first time Brittany watched Atlas and will definitely be asking for her help again when I'm out of town”
5. Curtis F.
“Very sweet and patient with our dogs.”
6. Amanda T.
“Amanda was awesome! First time meeting Luna Lovegood and Luna absolutely loved Amanda. I had set up my place as clean as possible and even after they came and house sat, Luna and the place were in even better shape. Constant communication and pictures. Thank you!”
7. Kailyn W.
“Kailyn watched our dog in our home for a long weekend and was wonderful! She provided updates and pictures. She took good care of our home while we were away. We felt completely comfortable with her and plan to have her watch our pup in the future!”
8. Maggie A.
“Maggie went above and beyond! This was our first time using Rover, and I’ll admit I was hesitant. We have a diabetic, blind dog and another who gets incredibly down whenever we go away. But Maggie was amazing from start to finish. She sent us photos and updates that showed both dogs were not only doing well, but genuinely enjoying themselves. She even got Fiona, our shy girl, out of her room for walks and playtime outside! On top of all that, the house was tidied up when we got back, which was such a thoughtful surprise. We’ll absolutely be using Maggie again in the future!”
9. Kyra L.
“Kyra was awesome with Brodie. She followed the instructions I left to a tee. I highly recommend her. Can't wait to have your sit with Brodie again.”
10. Khalia H.
“Khalia took great care of Dexter and communicated so well with us! She’s a very calming personality, which was so great for him. Thanks, Khalia!”
11. Emily G.
“Emily is amazing and so sweet! This was our first time using Rover and I was so nervous—we always get nervous leaving our babies, but Emily made this trip less stressful for us. I would definitely book with her again! Our dogs were well taken care of, as well as our home! She followed all instructions to a tee and even went above and beyond! We also appreciated her sending lots of updates, photos, & videos!”
12. Amy G.
“Amy takes great care of Barkley and my house while I’m gone. She makes sure to take care of all of his particular needs, and spoils him while I’m away! She leaves great daily feedback so I know he is safe and happy.”
13. Katlyn C.
“What an amazing experience! I could not recommend Katlyn enough. I was out of town for 8 days, I have two dogs and Katlyn went above and beyond. Not only following the norms my pups go through, but also being extremely responsible and treating my home like her own! If you’re in need of someone to watch your pets/home, I would HIGHLY recommend using Katlyn.”
14. Corrine K.
“Corrine was amazing with both of my kitties! She was able to come over before I left to meet both of them and get a feel for where things were in my home. She sent me updates with pictures every day which was very reassuring that my kitties were in great hands! I highly recommend Corrine and will definitely be asking her to pet sit again in the future! ❤️”
15. Ben B.
“Ben provided an extended time (12 days) house-sitting both our dogs and home. He was very responsive and responsible. I highly recommend Ben… he's extremely courteous and conscientious.”
16. Valarie L.
“Valarie exceeded all of my expectations! She got us in last minute and went above and beyond to make sure our senior dog was taken care of. She sent daily updates to us and even sent my kids texts with pictures throughout the week. I would highly recommend Valarie for all your pet care needs!!”
17. Audrey S.
About: I've been pet sitting since I was 8. In addition, I have a wide variety of experience in pet sitting including cats, dogs, rabbits, chinchillas, frogs, and other small animals. I'm currently a full-time student in college (online). I also have 2 part time jobs. I'm free any day before 9 am and most days before 4 pm. I'm also free all-day Sunday and Monday. I'm pretty flexible though and will work around my schedule to make time for your pets! I have lots of past experience with pet sitting. Due to my past experience, I have a wide variety of pets I've sat for. I've done small animals (rodents and reptiles) and I've also done large dogs, small dogs, and cats. If wanted, I will provide dogs with daily walks to ensure they're getting enough exercise.

“Alicia took excellent care of our girl, a high energy German Shorthaired, and our home while we were away. She was communicative, professional, and a pleasure to work with!”
19. Elianna P.
