1. Frances B.
“I’ve known Frances for the past 10+ years and she’s the most caring and responsible person! She leads with empathy and truly cares about everyone, human or animal! She loves every animal she sees, and whenever she sees a pet in the streets, she always stops to give them attention! Frances was the pet caregiver for an elderly dog (who she adopted from a shelter) for the past many years before her dog passed, and she gave her dog the most wonderful life. She brought her dog with her everywhere she went and treated her with so much dignity and respect. I couldn’t imagine a better pet caregiver than Frances - you would be so lucky to have her!”




2. Mei W.

“Mei taken care of my dog (drop in visits while I'm out of town) on two occasions thus far, and I'm happy to say that she has been responsive, communicative, reliable, and very understanding my pet's special care considerations. During our initial meet up, she took all the time needed for me to talk through my dog's care instructions, to become familiar with my apartment and how to enter and leave it securely, and where my dog's food, water, and treats were. When I travel, I really value the peace of mind I get from knowing my doggo is being taken care of well back at home, so I'm looking forward to booking with Mei next time!”


3. Sonia I.
“My dog loves Sonia! She’s very conscientious and super loving with our dog. She treats him like one of the family. Would not hesitate to recommend her services to anyone.”


4. Pietro S.

“Pietro and I are old friends. His parents have a little dog called Briciola and Pietro has always been very caring with her. When I got Bice, my dog and Pietro was coming over to my place to hangout, it was nice to see them enjoying their time playing together. Bice is VERY active and used to pull a lot when on the leash but Pietro gave me few tips to sort out the issues, and they worked! I was very confident that my dog was going to have the best time when staying with Pietro, because he was giving her all the attentions that she needed. If you are looking for a sitter that is caring, patient, and that would treat your dog like his own, do not hesitate to contact Pietro!”


5. Julia W.

“Julia was a lifesaver!!! Not only did she do great with our 2 pups that are new to the city but she was responsive and communicative super last minute due to an emergency with a previous rover while we were out of state. She saved the day literally! Highly recommend! Thanks Julia!”


6. Sam F.
“Sam has taken great care of his dog Lucas for many years, as well as pet sit for many friends. He is responsible and attentive, and makes sure that the dogs are happy and well cared for!”


7. kimberly s.

“Kimberly was amazing! So on top of everything and left our place spotless after a week away. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter and will be booking her again as soon as we schedule our next trip! :)”


8. Sarah J.

“Sarah is the best! She did a great job with my two cats that can be a pain. She sent me regular updates and even went above and beyond to make sure our basement wasn’t flooded while it was raining over the weekend. I really appreciate her help so last minute! Thank you 🙏🏻”


9. Rachel T.

“Rachel is fantastic. She was prompt and friendly throughout all our interactions. She clearly cares about animals deeply because I've never felt my pet be in better hands than she was with Rachel. I received plenty of pictures and thorough descriptions of what happened with each drop-in. Highly recommended.”


10. Courtney S.
About: I grew up with ten german shepherds, a husky, and a cockapoo. I’ve been fostering puppies for two years now and can help out with their crate and potty training and nipping issues. I am excited to your baby’s fur-ever friend. Most importantly, I respect your time and have never cancel last minute. (I will always give 5 days heads up, so you can find someone else to take over). I am currently fully booked for Tuesday to Thursday afternoons (11am to 2pm), but is relatively flexible on the weekdays during the mornings, late afternoons, and evenings. I live in a very dog-friendly building and within 10 minute walk to a park. I always cater to your puppy’s needs and abide by your preferences (if it’s okay to interact with other dogs or children, etc.)


11. Raven J.
“I have been using Raven as Miso's primary dog walker and preferred boarding spot since he was a puppy, and I cannot recommend her enough! Miso is a 1-year-old mini dachshund, and Raven has always been incredibly reliable, on time, and attentive to his needs. One of the things I love most about Raven is her consistent communication. After each walk, she makes sure to send me an update on how Miso is doing, which gives me peace of mind knowing he's in good hands. During the times we’ve traveled and left Miso for boarding, I always feel at ease because I know Raven will take exceptional care of him. She is particularly mindful of dachshunds' sensitive backs, which I really appreciate. Raven also sends great pictures and detailed recaps of his walks and time spent with her during pet sitting, so I always feel connected to Miso’s daily routine. A special bonus is that Raven has a Shih Tzu that she has brought over when Miso was smaller, which greatly helped with his socialization. It's been such a valuable experience for Miso. I wholeheartedly recommend Raven for any pet care needs, whether it's walking, boarding, or socialization. She truly cares about the pets she cares for and would really recommend for her for any pets!”


12. Marie M.

“It's clear that Marie really loves animals and I LOVE how many photos and updates she sends about my cats. We also had an incident where one of my cats knocked over a bunch of plants, and Marie went above and beyond and was resourceful and cleaned it up for me so I didn't have to come home to a mess. Will definitely be using Marie in the future!”


13. Paulina V.


“Paulina was absolutely amazing!! So professional, caring, and thorough in every way. Our two kitties were exceptionally well cared for and my wife and I felt completely at ease. She consistently provided detailed notes and many pictures so we could fully enjoy our trip. Excellent communicator and wonderful with cats! Can’t recommend enough!”


14. Kimberli B.

“Kim was fantastic! She was so sweet with our pups and did a great job watching them while we were away. We got the best pup photos! She was wonderful with administering medication and walking. We’ll definitely be working with her whenever we can moving forward!”


15. Lena H.
“Lena is a very passionate and loving person towards animals and people. I trust her with my dog since she owns a cat and I have seen how loving she is towards animals. She is very attentive and responsible enough to be trusted with lovely pets.”


16. Fiona O.

“Gina is great!”


17. Sara L.
“Sara walked and took care of my Cavalier King Charles for several years. Sara was very trustwrothy and punctual. She kept me apprised if there was anything unusual about my dog's health. She fed my dog. Sara was loving and energetic with my dog. She clearly loves dogs. I highly recommend Sara to anyone is seeking a responsible, punctual and loving dog walker.”


18. Stephanie S.
“Stephanie did a wonderful job taking care of my dog! I trust her completely--like family. My dog clearly loves her and every time we leave time and she watches him I'm put at ease. She's such a careful dog sitter and I would recommend her to anyone. Thanks for doing such a great job!!”


19. Denise S.

“Denise is wonderful. She made our anxious cat feel at ease. She was also able to successfully give him a gel medication in his ear, which is sometimes a challenge. Very communicative & professional.”


20. Irena H.
“Irena is a FANTASTIC dog sitter and pet walker. She has taken care of Jack, my Korean Jindo, many times. She sends frequent pictures and updates, and I sometimes even worry Jack would prefer to stay with her than come back home with me! :) Your pets will love her and appreciate the thorough attention.”
