“Breanna is a top notch dog caregiver. She watched my annoying little dog during my last trip and I experienced zero issues. Would definitely recommend her if you are looking for a responsible and friendly person to care for your pets!!”

“SUCH a fabulous and caring sitter. Clearly is a pro with any breed, pups, and older dogs. We absolutely will be booking with Max again - we couldn’t be more pleased with his incredible level of care ❤️”


3. Ezgi T.

“Ezgi was so great with my baby! My dog has a lot of anxiety and so I worry about leaving him because it takes a bit for him to be comfortable. She did a meet and greet with us and was so patient and loving with him. He was so happy with her after getting acclimated and I will definitely be using her in the future for any sitting needs!”




4. Anna S.


“Anna was a wonderful sitter! ❤️ I had her board my cat for a week and she did a fantastic job. She is very intuitive when taking care of cats and has a sweet and friendly cat of her own that I could tell she took good care of. I was nervous leaving my cat with someone else for the first time but she helped me feel very comfortable and always sent updates on how my cat was doing. I highly recommend her services! 😊”


5. Spencer & Ashley G.

“Ashley took really great care of my dog. Mooney stayed with Ashley and her family for two weeks while I was traveling for work. I had never left my pup this long or in San Antonio and was really anxious about it. Ashley was great at providing updates and sending many photos and videos. I could see my dog was healthy and taken care of. I would definitely recommend and book again, if she would have us.”


6. Zhante S.

7. Kayla T.

“Kayla is a friendly and communicative sitter! I recommend her services and will be returning next time I need someone to watch my dogs. She sent pictures daily of my pup. I was out of town for work and only booked a few days with her and ended up getting stuck out of town for work and she accommodated an extra day of watching my dog for me! Thanks Kayla!”

Will definitely book with them going forward!”

I am thankful and look forward to booking with her again!”


16. Justine P.

19. Shannon S.

“BEST SITTER HERE ON ROVER!!!! I don’t even know where to start with how amazing Shannon was to my boys !! She was super accommodating even when the weather through a wrench in my plans she was able to help . From start to finish she was a gem ! And treated my boys with such care and love . It’s hard to find someone to care for your fur babies on this site .. and I’m so grateful to have met her and had our boys in her home . She updated me with pictures and videos everyday while I was ways . She made sure my German shepherd ate with helping with hand feeding him and adding some yogurt to his food because of his anxiety. She played with both my German shepherd and my golden retriever , and made sure they were comfortable on night one by sleeping with them on the couch , and she had everything and more for them such as treats , beds , toys . She was so AMAZING AND KIND! I absolutely loved her at my boys sitter and will continually book with her again, because my mind was at such comfort and ease while she had them in her care. I honestly can’t say how thankful we are to have found Shannon !!!”


20. Karen R.

“We have continued to book with Karen. She follows all care instructions and goes the extra step to make sure Charlie is comfy. She is very communicative and sends lots of pics and videos. She also takes Charlie on extra walks. I know he loves being with Karen because he’s always super excited to see her. We’ll continue to book with Karen!”
