1. Damian H.

“Damian took such good care of my pup while I was gone! As someone with an anxious girl (scared of loud noises), he went above and beyond to make sure she felt comfortable and cared for. He was very communicative, with several pictures in each update. Would definitely recommend Damian to watch your furry friend!”


2. Raina I.

“Raina was amazing. It was the first time using rover and she definitely put my mind at ease, she did a meet and greet within the first day we contacted her. Our babies warmed up to her quickly and she was very understanding with our last minute schedule changes. Getting photos of our babies throughout my trip was a great surprise. We will definitely use her in the future.”

19. Rayna H.
“Rayna is amazing! She house-sat for me and took care of my two golden retrievers like they were her own. From the moment she met them, they were instantly comfortable with her, and I could tell she genuinely loves animals. She kept me updated with photos and messages, followed all of their routines, and left my home spotless. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dogs were happy, safe, and loved while I was away. I couldn’t recommend her more, your pets will be in the best hands with Rayna!”


20. Katherine K.

“Katherine was an amazing pet (and house) sitter. While we didn’t necessarily book her to house sit, she stayed in our home while we were away, which was a great bonus. She took great care of our Labradors; swimming with them, playing ball, and making sure they received exercise, food, and love. While away, we had several uncommon circumstances occur but Katherine handled them all! We truly appreciated her professionalism, attention to our dogs, and respect for our home. We would definitely book Katherine again and highly recommended her services.”
