“Excellent expirience all around. This was our first time using Rover after our original sitter fell through. Chris was fantastic at communicating and sent so many updates and photos we felt like our dogs were with us on our trip. Chris not only let our dogs out and fed them but really cared for them and made sure they were happy and comfortable while we were gone. We will absolutely use Chris again!”
“Tena did great with our babies! I was so nervous to leave them behind this trip. She gave them great care and attention and even managed to get one of my more aloof cats to sniff her! She is awesome!”
“Shanisa was a wonderful sitter! My home was left cleaned and organized and my pups were happy as can be. She was prompt to respond and even though i was away for only a weekend, she made sure to send pictures and videos to me. Would highly recommend!”
“Karen stayed for 6 days in our home with our senior dog and cat, and they were definitely spoiled and happy! Boarding our dog had become an issue because of his age, and we wanted him to be home where he’s comfortable, and with someone he can be comfortable with… in addition to someone we’re comfortable with letting stay at our house while we’re away. Karen was amazing! Our house is in perfect order, and most importantly the pets were well cared for and very happy. We have a new regular sitter!!”
“Sabrina was a lifesaver when our petsitter fell through for our two GSPs. Great communication as we were very far away from home and dogs loved her. Recommend her as a reliable and kind person.”
“Megan was great. My pets were happy & well cared for. She kept in touch with us & sent pictures . This made me feel calmer leaving them with her. I would have Megan watch them again.”
“There aren’t enough good things to say about Joelle! She was communicative, kind, compassionate, and respectful in every way - with our animals and their quirks, our home, etc. She sent us pictures and was prompt in all responses. This also was a last minute request due to a previous sitter following through. Such a treasure to find her, and we look forward to working with her much more! Thank you, Joelle!”
“Heather was amazing and took great care of our babies, you can tell she loves animals! I also received beautiful pictures from her throughout my vacation and felt relaxed knowing they were in good hands!”
“This was Kaitlyn’s second house sit with our 2 dogs and it went great! She was very understanding and followed my excessive 5 pages of information. We felt very comfortable trusting our dogs with Kaitlyn and will definitely be using her services again!”
“Amanda was a perfect sitter for my 2 dogs. Not only did she make time to watch them with short notice when my original sitter had to cancel, she also made time for a meet and greet before hand. Lots of updates and pictures to show that they were well cared for and were having fun. To top it off Amanda even checked to make sure I got home on time to make sure the pups were covered. Couldn't recommend her more as a top shelf sitter.”
“Accurate to description! There is a reason why she is a 5 star sitter. Toni took excellent care of my baby girl who's never had a sitter and Toni was well received by her as well. She kept us updated through out. 10/10 would recommend. Thank you Toni!”
“Erin was amazing!! She was on time, kind and my Sonny just loved her. They connected immediately and I could tell that he loved her from the moment they met! She sent pictures and updates and I will definitely be booking her again! Not only did Sonny and I love her but my mom loved her too. Scheduling to book her again next week! We loved having Erin as a dog sitter!”
“Gina was amazing!! From the initial meeting, our puppies took to her right away and I could tell it would be a great fit. She was very attentive with them and just a lovely person! She sent updates often with pictures and videos which my family loved. I’m pretty sure our pups were spoiled when we were gone and they probably will miss her! I will definitely use her services again in the future and recommend her to everyone!!”
“Dylan did a great job with our dog. It was a last minute booking, and Dylan really saved the day. He was accommodating, great with communication, and did a great job introducing himself to our pup (our dog is actually 12 years old and has a lot of separation anxiety). Dylan also sent us a number of photos while he was watching our dod to let us know he was doing great. We highly recommend Dylan.”
“Alberta is a blessing!! Louie is so comfortable with. He’s usually very hesitant to be left with people so it says a lot about her calm demeanor. She will definitely be our sitter any time we need to be away from him 💜”

Taking a chance on trying out a new sitter for you pets can be a daunting task especially when one of your pets is a 95lb retired racer greyhound that wasn't fortunate enough to grow up in a loving home and just be a dog. GL's Hidden Icon aka IKE knew he had a friend in Dylan almost immediately. Dylan took great care of both our boys and we will absolutely book him again.
Danielle housesat with our seizure dog over a long weekend. She sent us daily updates, photos and videos while she was with her. Dani made sure that Pandora got her medications on time throughout the day and gave her lots of attention, playtime and snuggles. She took care of my outdoor plants and the house as if they were her own. We came home to a clean house and a very happy dog. Danielle was the perfect sitter in every way and we were so fortunate to have found her. You can tell that she has a deep love of animals. I highly recommend her.
There’s no words that can describe the amazing experience my dogs and I had using Heathers house sitting and dog walking services! My dogs used to go the kennel and would seem depressed and scared when getting them home. I came back after 4 days and the dogs acted like I just left. Apparently they didn’t need to miss me since they were showered with love and affection the entire time. Heather doesn’t mention it on her profile, but she sends you the most fantastic photos of your pet!! The photos you receive seem like you hired her specifically for glamor shots of your pets. I’m actually excited to take another vacation knowing that there’s an amazing soul like Heather that will care for your pets like they are her own!
Arynn and Geoffrey are fabulous with our pup Nicklaus. We could tell he was loved and cared for as per his demeanor upon return from our trip. Our home was well cared for as well. We received lots of updates and pictures while away that relieved all our worries! They are great communicators. We are forever grateful and will be booking again.
