“She is the BEST! Leaves very detailed reports on each of our dog and even went the extra miles and cleaned up a mess our dogs made. Couldn’t imagine leaving our dog kids with anyone else. One of our dogs is extremely shy and is scared around most people. He has now bonded to her and loves when she comes to play.”

“Sydney is an excellent pet sitter! Timely, communicative and very trustworthy. My boy Marley is a thunder baby so leaving him during the New Year holiday was tough, but I felt comfort in knowing that she would follow instructions for his anxiety meds and give him all the comfort he needed. She sent lots of photos and updates on her visits each time. Thank you, Sydney!!”

“Lisa is one of the nicest people I know. She has a big heart and a welcoming warm smile. She loves dogs and dogs love her. They can sense her kindness and affection for them. I love my dogs so incredibly much and I am very careful who I leave them with. I trust Lisa as she has shown me her love for my fur babies and she keeps them safe and happy. My dogs also love her and are so excited to see her, so leaving them is actually less traumatic for me and my husband. Lisa also sends photo updates. Without hesitation, I highly recommend Lisa.”


14. Stephanni D.


“Stephanni was amazing! First time using the Rover app services and first time leaving our dog with anyone other than family member and Stephanni made the whole process very comforting and reassuring. She is very suite and she was very caring to our dog. I will be rebooking her again next time we are out of town. Thank you Stephanni!!! You were wonderful! 🫶🏻”


15. Elizabeth H.
“Liz is my go-to pet sitter for my family when we go away! She takes such incredible care of our dogs, cat, and tortoises as well as cared for our sick rat while we were away. Our furry family members are always excited to see her and we love the peace of mind knowing our pets are being loved and cared for as if they were her own.”


16. Dominick C.
“I hired Dominick to walk my dog once a day Monday through Friday. I have two dogs and they are a bit of a handful. Dominick was never asked or expected to train them but both of them now know how to sit on command and they both walk on a leash like never before. Dominick came recommended to me from a friend and I will highly recommend him not just as being good with dogs but he would make a good dog trainer as well.”

“Excellent job she made sure my baby Loki is feed and even made sure to try and have playful time with him even tho my cat is shy and scared of people at first takes him time to warm up to people she tried to have him play with her and have him feel safe and calm I would rebook with her any day I trust my pet with her”


19. Joanne L.
“I often visit JoAnne in her home. She has many pets. They are a delight and as personable as she is. She ,without even trying, taught me how to be a pet owner. She cares deeply for her own pets and would take excellent care of yours. Yes, I recommend Joanne to be a pet care taker. You could do no better.”
