“As always Jill is very dependable and takes great care of our dog When we arrive home the house is always as we left it I would highly recommend Jill”


2. Katie C.

“Katie was amazing with our pups! We have 4 small dogs 8 month Yorkie, 7 year old Yorkie, 8 year old Yorkie mix, and a 10 year old Morkie. All with very distinct personalities and quirks. Katie came a couple times before hand to meet them. She quickly recognized everyone's characters and adjusted to keep them happy. If she had any questions, she did not hesitate to reach out. I received daily pictures and texts. Which is a blessing when you are leaving your babies for a length of time. Katie made me feel comfortable and I was able to enjoy my vacation.”

“Eko and Sarah were great! They responded right away to my request and during their house-sitting they communicated any questions clearly. Got lots of pictures of our pup from their walks and overnight. It brought us such peace of mind that such lovely and attentive people were caring for our dog while we were away! Will definitely book with them again!”

9. Hannah H.
“Hannah was the best pet caretaker when I needed her! She was great with communicating with me when I needed her help, as well as great with my dogs. I always came home to happy dogs. She was very great about playing with them and engaging with them, compared to other caretakers that I’ve had where they just sit there and let the dogs out occasionally. I would recommend her for anyone looking for help! She’s the best!”


10. Logan G.

“Logan pet sat for our cat Bella for a week while we away. Bella is a senior with special needs. Logan came by to meet with Bella a few times before we went away. Logan then stayed at our home caring for Bella while attending college classes. We called every few days so Bella could hear our voice. Having Logan with Bella allowed us to be away knowing she was being well cared for and not alone for long periods of time. We will be in touch with Logan again to sit for Bella.”


11. Catherine B.

“This is the second time we have asked Catherine to watch our dog and cat. And we would definitely ask her a third, fourth, fifth, and so on because she is wonderful caring for them! We had no worries being out of town and know that they are in good hands with Catherine. Anybody seeking Catherine's help to watch their pets will not be disappointed. Thank you so much!! - M&N”

14. Stacy M.

18. derek g.

“Derek was very responsive and very flexible with how short-notice our request was. Was willing to learn about cat asthma and how to handle it if an attack occurred, which we greatly appreciated as that was a major concern for us. Overall very chill and got some great photos!”


19. Kathy P.

“Our usual dog sitter/house sitter texted at the last minute (the day of) to cancel. We had a wedding to attend, and we had already booked a hotel as it was a big drive and would be a late night. So, I quickly hopped onto Rover to find a replacement. We sent a request to Kathy, and she responded immediately, and we scheduled the gig. We were very happy with Kathy. Her professionalism was outstanding, and our two dogs loved her. We felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. We were happy that we found Kathy and would use her again.”


20. Sofia D.

“Sofia cares so much and it is obvious in how dedicated she is to making sure all are loved and well taken care of, thank you so much!!”
