We hired Holly to house sit Tycho (cat) for two weeks. She was kind enough to put up with all our instructions and sent plenty of updates. Furthermore our kitty is extremely skittish and he warmed up to her very quickly. Will absolutely hire her again.

About: I may not have dogs of my own but I sure do love being around them. Before moving I use to volunteer at an animal shelter and I loved it there just to see how dogs were able to have at least a couple of minutes of happiness from pups to seniors. I also foster kitties and have two of my own! I am currently attending nursing school, so can’t fit a full time job into my schedule. This is the best option because it’s something I love and I can still complete my studies! I would first build trust with the animal ensuring they are not frightened by me. Aside from that I love for the owners to tell me more about their pet to allow me to best adjust my skills to accommodate the pet.

If I could give 10 stars I would! Not only did Kelcya and Elizabeth take fantastic care of our baby and kept us updated - they left an amazing snippet of Sookie’s behavior while we were gone. Already booking with them again!

About: I have been a pet owner for virtually my entire life! Cats, dogs, rabbits and even a bird! My partner and I recently lost our beloved Jack Russell Terrier “Terrie” after 14 wonderful years. While regular travel commitments make it difficult to adopt another companion of our own at this time, we would love the opportunity to care for your “best fur-iend” when we are home! My partner and I both work from home, so, rest assured, someone will always be there with your pet for playtime, potty breaks and walks. I have a fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood. The house is of a decent size and currently we are without a full-time pet of our own. Your pet will enjoy being the center of attention!

About: I have been dog sitting and taking care of pets since I was 15. I love being with dogs of all ages and breeds. I have a soft spot for anxious or nervous dogs as I also have a nervous dog at home myself! I will be sure to send you photos and updates every day about your pet and will treat them like they are my own pup. They will be well taken care of and receive lots of love when they are with me. New to Rover? Use my code for $20 off your first booking! https://www.rover.com/sit/natass69178 I am currently working full-time, but I am available to come by on my lunch break for a potty break or walk, and can come take care of your pet before 8am and after 5pm. If you prefer to keep your dog crated, I make sure they are not being destructive to your home while I am gone. I also make sure to give them plenty of mental stimulation, and I will clearly communicate all matters to you.

This is my second time booking RJ to watch my dog at my place and he was amazing once again. He sends daily pics and updated me on how my little girl was doing which provides a lot of peace of mind, especially having a senior dog. Whenever he had a question he would reach out which I appreciated.

Sabrina was wonderful! She was very organized, communicative, and always on time. We felt completely comfortable having her in our home, and she even left it cleaner than when we left. She sent photos and videos that gave us peace of mind and showed how well our pets were being cared for. Leaving your pets with someone new can be stressful, but with Sabrina we had no concerns at all. We’ll definitely be booking her again in the future!

Cheryl was wonderful with our two dogs. We had a last minute emergency and asked Cheryl to start her house sitting stay earlier, which she was able to accommodate. Our dogs take some time to warm up to new people, but they seemed so comfortable in Cheryl's care, which gave us a ton of peace of mind during a difficult time. She was also great at communicating with us through the booking process and during her stay and was a very gracious house guest.

I cannot say enough good things about Stina! She took incredible care of my very particular but lovable goof of a dog, Millie! Taking her on walks every day and making sure she ate all her meals! Not only that, she took great care of my home! Going above and beyond making sure my plants were watered and taking full responsibility for the house! I felt more than comfortable knowing that she was there while I was out of the country. I wouldn't hesitate to have Stina take care of your pets, and I'll certainly be having her take care of Millie in the future!

Kacey was awesome with my dog Daisy. My place was left in great condition. My dog was happy and well cared for. I got pictures everyday and felt comfortable that i had nothing to worry about. Additionally, i messed up my return date and she was super accommodating with little notice. I definitely recommend Kacey!!!

Jacob has been amazing and we are grateful to have him house sit & look after our two furry family members. We were out for over 9 days and needed someone to look after our dogs while we were on the east coast. Jacob was phenomenal- very detailed and respected our wishes for the dogs and went above and beyond. Every day we received updates on walks, feeding (food & treats), working through discipline issues, training them along the way (we are still following his recommendations) and just being the absolute best pet sitter and carer. He is very detailed oriented; we had left some instructions and he not followed those to a tee. The house was clean & immaculate after we returned. Our furry family remembers were happy, healthy and well behaved!! Jacob was also flexible when our flight was delayed and stayed with the dogs till late. I will highly recommend Jacob to anyone who is considering using the service. It’d be hard to find a better sitter and companion. Absolutely the best!!!

This was the first time we’ve ever left Monty with a sitter longer than a day so we were a little nervous because he’s a bit of a handful. But Anthony totally eased our minds, was great with monty, and was very communicative. Would totally hire again.

Jessie was great with my pup! He is over 6 years old and this was his first experience with an overnight pet sitter. Jessie was very communicative, sending pictures and updates throughout the stay, making me feel comfortable while I was away. She also followed his routine perfectly so he also felt very comfortable with her. Definitely hope to work with Jessie again!

As always, Joel takes care of Loki so well, and looks after our home and treats it with respect. He house sits and looks after Loki frequently, on this occasion he went the extra mile by being so flexible. We extended his stay at the beginning and the end of our trip away, and at very short notice. Thank you Joel, we appreciate you.

Patricia was great! She was very responsive when I would reach out. She house sat for us for 3 nights. We have a German Shepherd and an outdoor only cat. Both pets were very well cared for with updates. Patricia sent cute photos showing what they were doing. Our dog got to go swimming in our pool and play! It was great to just be able to enjoy our vacation and not worry about our home or pets. We will definitely ask her to house sit again.
