“Michelle is the best! I have had her house & pet sit for me numerous times. She is always reliable and communicates quickly. It's nice that I can travel knowing that my Paisley is well taken care of!”
3. Angela M.
“Angela was a fantastic sitter for our best friends. She jumped in on short notice and checked in with us regularly to let us know how things were going. It is such a relief to know we had 4 less things to worry about! Thank you, Angela!”
4. Mary-Kate H.
“Mary-Kate is a kind and professional sitter. She was eager to learn about our ducks and took great care with them and our dog. We’d definitely book her again!”
5. Ozzy J.
“Ozzy was amazing! They stayed at our house and watched our golden retriever Scotch and cat Persephone while we were away for the Thanksgiving holiday. They sent us pictures & video of our fur babies and kept us updated on how they were doing. It’s important to us to have our pet sitters stay in our home while we are away, our animals get stressed in new environments, and Ozzy was so great! Our animals need alllll the attention, and Ozzy did not disappoint! They came over a week before to meet our Scotch & Percy and learn about the house. They even left a card for when we got home! Ozzy is fantastic, our animals loved them and we will definitely use them in the future when we go away. Thank you Ozzy!”
6. Miles M.
“1st time Rover user. I cannot say enough good things about Miles. He is kind, compassionate, responsible. He sent pictures and communicated everyday. He took care of the mail and my house. I feel safe leaving my 3 boy cats with Miles, anytime. I certainly will be booking him again. Thank you, Miles.”

“Onyx was great. She provided multiple daily updates and photos and went the extra mile by bringing her own dog over for playdates per our request. She did a great job caring for our very skiddish and scared pup.”
8. Kara M.
“Kara is amazing. I was concerned having a new caregiver for my 2 odd rescues dogs, 11 years old with arthritis and 3 years old with a fear of people. I am new to the state and I am so grateful we found her. Kara was communicative, compassionate and took excellent care of our girls and our home. I highly recommend her and I feel very confident working with her in the future. Thank you Kara!!”
9. Kim B.
“Kim was absolutely wonderful and took such great care of Luna. I received pictures throughout the weekend and I could tell that Luna was so comfortable with Kim and that she was well taken care of! Luna had an accident and Kim took care of it right away. I would recommend Kim to anyone needed pet care! Thank you ☺️”
10. Lauren R.
“Lauren was very communicative and responsive for our entire vacation. She went above and beyond to make sure Forest had what he needed and even got him out on some nice long walks. She also made sure things around the house were taken care and even took a few additional requests with ease. I would absolutely book again and highly recommend to anyone else who needs loyal and proper care for their furry friends.”
11. Kiersten P.
“I would absolutely recommend Kirsten for your pet care needs. My cat and bouncy 9 month old hound were so well attended to that I don't think they even missed me. The house was so tidy that it was hard to tell anyone had stayed here. Kirsten was in constant contact with me via texts and photos. Im so glad I found someone I can depend on when I need help.”
