Ellie was amazing! She took Taffy on all kinds of little adventures and sent me the cutest pictures. She was super communicative and I could tell Taffy had a great time without me because she’s already went back to sleep and I just got home. Thank you Ellie!

Timothy house-sat our dogs for a few days and did an excellent job! He was extremely proactive in communication, sent regular picture updates, and left the house clean and tidy. We could tell the dogs had been well cared for when we returned and will absolutely plan to book pet care with Timothy in future!

Lidia was absolutely wonderful! From the moment we met, I felt completely comfortable leaving my pet in her care. She was dependable, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Throughout the stay, she provided updates, photos, and peace of mind, which meant so much to me. My pet was happy, well cared for, and clearly received plenty of attention and affection. Lidia went above and beyond to make sure everything was handled perfectly. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and kind to care for your furry family member, I cannot recommend Lidia highly enough. I will definitely be booking with her again!

Diamond was amazing! She is kind and patient, and has wonderful positive energy, and a bright personality. Thank you for being patient with my girl, and giving her a chance to get to know you. She’s already walked into the guest room multiple times looking for you. Lol It’s hard for me to trust her with just anyone, but you did such a wonderful job with her, that I can’t wait to book you again! A thousand thanks from me and Duchess. 🫶🏼

Stephanie was so wonderful with my dogs. She was very communicative and sent pictures and let me know everything she was doing. It’s so appreciated when you leave your babies at home with someone new. She also left my home probably cleaner than I left it which was very sweet and thoughtful. I would definitely use Stephanie again.

Daniele stayed at our apartment and took care of our two small dogs and cat. She was professional and our animals were well-cared for. One of our dogs is on two medications and his meds were handled well. The dogs also required walking 5-6 times a day and that was handled. We came home to a clean apartment and happy, settled dogs (and cat). Lots of pictures and videos sent to make us feel better about leaving.

Daniela was such a blessing! From day one she was very responsive and professional. I made her come to my house twice for meet and greet because i have two Dobermans and i needed them to get familiarized with her before my trip. She accomodated my last minute changes and made the whole experience so enjoyable. My dogs are very high maintenance and extremely velcro so i was worried it would be too much for Daniela but nope! Got so many pictures and updates that i didnt worry about my doggos (or my house) while i was on vacation. She went above and beyond and left the house even cleaner than how i left it. Even gave freyja a bath. Not ever booking with anyone else other than her :) happy with my first ever rover experience and very thankful i found her.

We could not have asked for a better pet sitter! We were away for 17 days, which is a long time to leave our dogs and cat, but we felt completely at ease the entire trip. We received regular updates, photos, and messages that showed just how well our pets were being cared for. It was clear that our dogs and cat were happy, comfortable, and getting lots of attention. In fact, they looked like they were on vacation themselves! Seeing them so relaxed and content made it easy for us to enjoy our time away without worrying. The communication, professionalism, and genuine care for our pets exceeded all expectations. We are incredibly grateful and would absolutely trust them with our pets again. Highly recommend!

Jayla is a fantastic dog sitter! We had to leave our pup for close to 2 weeks and Jayla took good care of him and made sure he was happy and cozy while we were away! She sent us pictures of him every day and did an amazing job maintaining his routine. We're so grateful for her excellent care and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an attentive, responsive, and caring pet sitter!

I highly recommend entrusting her to watch over your furry loved ones.

Here is a shorter version: Lev was absolutely wonderful. He is trustworthy, easy to communicate with, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. He sent regular updates and photos, kept me informed about walks, meals, medication, and followed all instructions exactly. He was dependable, on time, and very attentive. My dogs are not always the easiest to win over, but they quickly trusted him. He genuinely cared about them, spent extra time with them, and made sure they felt comfortable and cared for. Lev stayed overnight, handled everything beautifully, and my home was clean and exactly as I left it. My dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. I will absolutely book Lev again and highly recommend him.

Jill was such a blessing to me when I went out of the country for six days and had to leave my two babies behind. She showed up on time, took her job seriously and sent frequent photos and updates to ease my mind. I work from home so my pups are used to having people around most of the day and Jill was one of the few sitters I talked with who was happy to spend a lot of time with them so they were rarely alone. She kept them, fed, gave my older dog his heart medicine and provided enough love so I came home to two relaxed, happy dogs. And best of all, I was able to enjoy some time away knowing they were in good hands.

Kalina was absolutely incredible. We truly could not have asked for a more caring and attentive dog sitter. This was our first time leaving Nala overnight without a close friend or family member watching her, and we were pretty nervous - especially since we were gone for over a week. But Kalina made us feel at ease the entire time we were gone! She sent us updates everyday throughout the day, including adorable pics of Nala having fun with other pups and friends, which really brightened our days. She was also super responsive and left our home spotless. Our only fear is that she won’t be available next time we need a sitter!

Charis was awesome with our fur family! Our sitting experience started as a disaster for her (TOTALLY ON US) that she handled with complete ease and calm (I was a stressed mess lol). Less than 2 hours after her arrival all our smoke detectors started going off. And going off. And wouldn't stop. This went on for several hours and required a call to an electrician that thankfully was able to get there very quickly and solved the problem. I was so grateful Charis was willing to stick it out and assist with letting the electrician in and problem solving. Charis gave our 2 pups and our cat lots of love and attention during the 4 day stay and left our house in perfect condition. Ziggy, Shelby Ann, Bear and I highly recommend.

Rory took great care of our three cats over a 9 day trip. She was responsive and sent pics every day, and also kept us informed of package deliveries. We hate to leave our cats for such a long period of time but it’s clear that they were well cared for and got lots of snuggles. Rory left the house clean and organized, brought in our mail, and was kind enough to put out the trash and recycling. We’d definitely book Rory again and recommend her to others.

Naomi always goes above and beyond to make sure our pups are well cared for while we are away. She provides structured routines, lots of love, sends plenty of updates and videos! She is also very well rounded in her knowledge and handling of all types of dog temperaments and needs; our two pups have very different care requirements (ie one with medical needs and one is a young dog with a lot of energy) and she always does a fantastic job with them both! I would highly recommend her! (-:
