“Excellent pet watcher!! I highly recommend. They were very responsive, and flexible. My cat T-square had a blast at there place. He was loved, groomed, and cared for, as if he was with me! ❤️”
“Raeann was great with my dog! My dog is very anxious so I was hesitant about leaving him. We set up a meet and great prior to my trip and all my hesitations were gone. She kept me updated constantly and sent pics during the course of my trip to keep me updated. She took him for walks, played with him and made a comfortable environment for him. I will definitely use raeann again.”
“Denise is amazing! My pup was so happy and loved. Her and her husband took great care of my dog and kept me up to date on him throughout everyday with plenty of videos and pictures. Best part is he came home exhausted which is always a great sign that he had so much fun. We will be booking again!”
“Courtney is amazing. So sweet and understanding. She took such great care of my 2 dogs and treated them just like her own. One dog I thought was my problem child pup but she had no problem with him which is such a plus when going away. I will book with Courtney from now on. So happy to have found her. Thank you Courtney.”
“Eronda’s heart bleeds for dogs. We had her dog sit our dog for 10 days. He is an anxious dog and returned happier than ever and we enjoyed our vacation knowing he was in the best of hands. Thanks so much Eronda!!”
“Jack loved his visit! They were so good with him and provided updates and photos throughout the day. Their dogs Chowder and Regina are awesome, and my dog enjoyed spending time with them. Will definitely be using them for my next upcoming trips! 10/10”
“Bruce had a great time with Gemma and Gizmo! We received regular updates and adorable photos. He loved playing with all the toys and of course snuggling! We will definitely be back - thanks Gemma!”
“We have the best experiences having our dog Kiwi stay with Ellyn and her family! Ellyn is a great communicator and sends photo updates that give us peace of mind our pup is being taken great care of! Kiwi is always so excited to be dropped off - thanks Ellyn and family!”
“Chang sent us lots of pictures of our dog looking Happ and having a good time at her house. She was really kind and easy to work with. We will be using her again.”
“I can confidently give Coralee my utmost recommendation as an outstanding caretaker. Coralee and her family were absolutely incredible throughout the boarding process. They took our dog, Duke, in over the holidays as another member of their family. Coralee was responsive and sent updates which allowed us to enjoy our trip knowing Duke was happy. We will absolutely be booking with Coralee in the future, and I will be recommending her to our friends and family!”
“Theresa boarded my 13 lb bundle of sweetness for a week, and she was absolutely wonderful! She was flexible when our flight times shifted, and more importantly, my pup was relaxed and happy when I picked her up. She can run on anxious side, so her even temperament is a testament to Theresa’s love and care! Lijah also loved Dozer the dog, which means he didn’t mind letting her hog momma for a little snuggle time. Thank you, Theresa! I’ve been using Rover for two years, and have had a few sitters. I recommend Theresa for boarding your pups.”
“Megan and her family are delightful. I felt safe leaving nugget with them because since moment one she was charming, transparent and sweet. My best recommendation for the platform is to honestly confess that I will rebook if I ever need a sitter again. Nugget was so visibly happy”
“Justin was just fabulous with my corgi terrier mix Monty! He is communicative and conscientious and just a super nice person. He sent wonderful pics and informative and helpful updates. I felt completely comfortable leaving Monty with Justin and cannot recommend him highly enough. Five stars!”
“Jesaun was so extremely friendly and flexible with us. We ended up needing extremely last minute care for our dog and he was able to help us out and even went out of his way to pick her up for us. He was great at taking care of our dog, sent pictures and updates, and made sure she got lots of exercise. I would definitely recommend him.”
“Sam was fantastic. Extremely sweet, open, prepared, and passionate about caring for Winter. Made it easy to leave her for the first time. Anybody’s dog is in good hands with Sam.”

Nicole was absolutely amazing! My cat, Azúcar, is very shy, and this was her first experience staying with a cat sitter, so I really wasn't sure how she would behave. Despite being a very difficult kitty at times, Nicole was incredibly patient with her and did everything she could to make sure Azúcar was comfortable and well cared for. Nicole took the time to understand Azúcar's personality and respected her boundaries while still making every effort to help her feel safe and secure. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing that Azúcar was in such caring and capable hands. I truly appreciate Nicole's kindness, patience, and dedication, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate cat sitter!
I would definitely recommend Victoria for dog-sitting. She is very communicative and sends tons of videos. My dog developed some diarrhea the day before I dropped her off and Victoria gave her her medication and took care of her with no problem. I knew my dog was safe and well-cared for when I was out of town!
Audrey was the perfect caregiver for Rufus. I needed to find someone relatively quickly, and Audrey was available and made sure we could squeeze in a meet and greet so Rufus and I would feel comfortable. Rufus is almost 13 and has some health issues requiring meds. He is often reluctant to take the meds and sometimes to eat enough, but Audrey was successful in making sure he got what he needed. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Audrey any time!!!
Courtney is amazing. So sweet and understanding. She took such great care of my 2 dogs and treated them just like her own. One dog I thought was my problem child pup but she had no problem with him which is such a plus when going away. I will book with Courtney from now on. So happy to have found her. Thank you Courtney.
Elizabeth was amazing!! We took our 12 year old small dog, who has alot of anxiety and issues with being left alone and I have never seen her so happy with a sitter!! Elizabeth gave our Mia so much attention and love that we were afraid that she wouldn't want to come home with us. I hope that she never stops dog sitting because I am sure we will never find someone as perfect for our Mia as Elizabeth.
Kassandra is the sweetest person we have ever left our dog with. She was very punctual and picked Leo up and dropped him off at the agreed upon time. Leo needed meds and extra care due to his multiple medical problems but Kassandra took care of him very well. Leo was very happy with Kassandra as I could see when she was leaving after dropping him off and Leo didn’t want her to leave. Kassandra gave us daily updates and additional updates as needed so the communication was excellent. I cannot thank her enough for taking such good care of Leo!
