“Abigail was very friendly and responsive. She also was willing to do anything that would help our dogs while she was at our home (dog medication, staying longer, etc).”


“Jordan was absolutely INCREDIBLE!!!! This was my first time using rover so I was extremely nervous about going away for a week and leaving my pup. However, Jordan truly went above and beyond!! She’s extremely thorough, organized, and was the PERFECT sitter for my pup! My dog was a bit skeptical at first, however, Jordan was very patient with my dog and in less than 24 hours my dog felt comfortable and safe with her! She sent me pictures/videos/updates daily and my dog looked SO HAPPY!! (Which made my worries quickly go away!) Jordan is truly amazing and I can’t say enough great things about her! My pup and I got extremely lucky to have her pet sit and I would 100 % use her again! Thank you so much Jordan!!!”


“Keyla was wonderful with my golden retriever Freja. She let me know when she was there and took pictures to show how happy Freja was with her. When I got home Freja was happy as can be and not stressed that I had been gone for the weekend.”


“Rhoda did a great job taking care of my cat while I was on vacation! She went above and beyond and by the pictures she sent I could tell my cat was enjoying his “vacation” as well. I will definitely be booking her for future sittings! Thank you, Rhoda!”


“Katherine was the BEST! She house sat Wiley, my 2 year old pit bull, for several days while I was away. She kept me updated with texts and photos of Wiley. Katherine took Wiley on hikes and several park play sessions throughout each day. When I arrived home, the house was just as we left it and Wiley was a very happy pup. I highly recommend Katherine's services. She is wonderful!”


“Rebecca did great with our 3 pets on short notice. Even with our little guy who doesn't warm up to people easily and can be a bit rude! Our house was clean and just how we left it.”


“Jennifer was amazing! Very thorough updates and always sent pictures. I could tell my cat was very happy with her as well. Would definitely re-book in the future. Thank you, Jennifer!”

“Aaliyah was really great with my puppy and very open with communication. She was very much focused on what would make Evie more comfortable. She sent a pic and videos of Evie having a great time with her 3 stunning dogs and was flexible and when I had to pick up my pup a little later than expected.”
