“Kiirsten D. was an absolutely amazing dog sitter! She went above and beyond in caring for my puppy, showing incredible patience and attentiveness. My pup had several accidents in the house, and Kiirsten handled each one without hesitation, keeping everything clean and comfortable.

I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and responsible pet sitter!”

They really get to know your cats, and genuinely care about them, playing in ways that will engage your cat and respecting their boundaries.

“Matina and Amanda took great care of my kitties while I was gone! They sent lots of pics, were quick to communicate, and were flexible with timing. Highly recommend!”

“Jill was our favorite rover yet! Consistently provided 8 photos and updates of our kitties everyday and it was a huge treat compared to previous rovers. We felt so comfortable leaving our pets and home in Jill’s hands and we 110% recommend!”

“Maya was amazing with my cat! It was the longest I've been away from her, but Maya made me less nervous with her awesome notes about my floof. She even sent pictures of them cuddling which is an amazing feat considering my cat is skittish. Thank you so much!!”

Jack was fantastic! My dog is very anxious and doesn’t do well being left alone, but he made me feel super comfortable and kept me updated with pictures and messages letting me know how Remy was doing. Jack also asked great questions about Remy’s care which also made me feel very reassured. I would definitely book with Jack again, Remy was also a big fan!

Alyssa was absolutely amazing with Xandra and Neska! From the moment I met her, it was clear she genuinely loves animals and takes pet care seriously. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Both Xandra and Neska were happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with Alyssa when I returned. She treated them like they were her own pets. It’s such a relief to know they were in such caring and capable hands. I would highly recommend Alyssa to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and compassionate pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!
Sarah did an amazing job watching our dog for the day! I really appreciated how communicative she was throughout the visits. She was flexible with our schedule as well. We came home to a very content happy pup which is always a great sign. Would welcome her back anytime!

I can't recommend Riva enough! I've booked and rebooked with her because she makes leaving my two cats so much less stressful. She's communicative and always keeps me updated with the sweetest photos and messages. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing my two babies are in good hands while I'm out of town. You can tell she genuinely cares, and I'm so grateful to have found someone I trust with them!

Alexys is an amazing pet sitter. She took excellent care of my cats for the week I was away. She really went above and beyond looking for my scared cat Ricky when he was hiding under the bed to make sure he was ok. She kept me updated twice a day with summaries and photos so that I could rest assured that my furbabies were well taken care of!!! I highly recommend Alexys for you pet care needs.

We’ve used Lauren a handful of times now for long weekends and she’s so great with our big dogs. They can be a lot to handle because one is excitable and the other is anxious but they both do great with Lauren. Highly recommend reaching out for your dog care needs
