1. Jeffrey W.

“I came in from our of town for a family gathering and needed a last minute walker for my dog. Jeffery was great with communicating with me for the last minute need. Was great handling Denise (my 2.5 year old had) and they had a nice hour long stroll around the neighborhood. Would recommend”




2. Maria G.

“Maria is consistently on time, friendly and provides excellent care to my pup and always provides prompt responses to my many questions! She takes the dog on great walks and always sends photos and updates in every Rover card. She’s worth every penny and I would highly recommend her to anyone!”


3. Kalley H.
About: I have been looking after and taking care of my family’s dogs and friend’s cats. I have a good sense of responsibility when it comes to caring for these pets, and I hope to care for yours too! I am currently attending a college program online, which allows me to have more free time on the side to care for pets in addition to my education. My family loves to care for my sister’s dog every so often, so our home is well equipped with the tools to care for dogs. No matter where I am, I will make sure that the pets have all the amenities possible for a comfortable stay/visit.


4. Elizabeth N.

“Elizabeth was great with our Deaux. Super communicative! She took lots of pictures and gave a very detailed report on Deaux’s visit. We will definitely book her again.”


5. Danielle D.
“Danielle is the best. My husband and I received lots of great communication from her, including wonderful pictures. Our pup Dallas sometimes has a hard time eating, and she made the extra effort to make sure that he got his meals in. Danielle even sat with Dallas’ food on her lap to help encourage him to eat. Dallas loves to hang out with her, and she always makes his tail wag. Danielle also was very flexible with our schedule, and she was fast to respond to any questions or concerns. I can’t recommend Danielle enough.”


6. John C.
“Jack has been sent from heaven! When he came to our home he had questions, repeated instructions and TOOK NOTES! We met 4 others before we chose him.. Our zoey loves him and her ears perk up when we say he is coming today! He is reliable, punctual and responds immediately. He has helped us in a pinch and last minute sitting. He sends pictures after each visit and update on pee & poop status! He engages with zoey, plays & cuddles. Unfortunately we won't need him after this week I got a remote job...but will continue to have him come here & there for Zoey. We HIGHLY recommend him to watch over your dogs!”


7. derek g.
“Derek grew up in a family that had various pets and he was always the one to pay keen attention to each of them and make sure they were fully loved and cared for. He enjoyed spending his time with them and was very “in tune” to the animals, noticing any changes in behavior or any other issues they may have. Derek is also very energetic which makes him a good candidate for walking or running dogs, along with being physically capable to tend to the many tasks that come with proper pet care. - I highly feel this job is a very good fit For Derek”

9. Kailin D.
“Kailin is a consummate animal lover and has always revered our family pets. Kailin loves taking care of our dogs (and cats) and the pets are magnetized to her and are always excited to see her if she has been out for awhile. It is her dream to work with animals and she would fully embrace that opportunity if it was presented to her. Please consider Kailin as a willing, competent and loving pet worker.”


10. Jen M.

“Jen has been walking our puppy for 2mths now and she is wonderful. She is really helping him get use to walking on a leash and comfortable as cars pass. Thanks again Jen for taking Willie on a couple of walks a week!”


11. Audrey G.
“Audrey is amazing! She has helped us out on multiple occasions, both short-term (a day at a time) and longer-term (almost a week). We have two cats, and had two dogs (until recently when one passed away). Audrey took exceptional care of all of them, including a complex medication routine for one of my dogs and one of my cats. She also gave extra attention to our higher energy dog and took her on walks and adventures. The pets also received lots of snuggles. While we were away, she checked in regularly and shared pictures so we didn't have to worry about our babies. Audrey is incredibly kind, caring, and thoughtful, and you can tell that she genuinely cares about animals. I would highly recommend her as a pet sitter to anyone!”

15. Pamela S.
“Pam is an amazing dog / animal lover. She will take care of your fur babies like they are her own. She is very calm and gentle so if your pet is shy she is the right fit.”


16. Presley N.
About: I love taking care of dogs and have a 5-year-old black lab at home that I absolutely adore. Because of my experience with my own dog, I really get what dogs need and how to keep them stress free and happy! Can’t wait to meet your pups! I am currently living in boston for school, I have a lot of free time and access to all parts of the city for walks and play time! Making sure they get plenty of exercise (getting out all the zoomies!), attention, and love. I understand their needs, whether it's going for long walks, playing fetch, or just giving them some belly rubs. I'm also good at noticing if something seems off as my dog at home suffers from anxiety.


17. Erin G.
About: I have taken care of many different types of dogs, ranging from American Mastiff's to Jack Russel Terrier’s. I have always own 3+ animals at once throughout my 19 years. When it comes to cats I own 2, and have cat sit plenty of times for friends and family. I know what it is like to handle multiple animals at once. I have an understanding of dedication of attentiveness puppies/kittens and senior animals need. That way they can get the right support! I currently work part-time. My typical days off are Monday and Tuesdays. For the other days of week Wednesday-Sunday I’m free typically free after 6pm depending on my schedule for the week! I live on 8 acres of land. This allows me to take my dog out and walk her around. My dog is yard trained, so she does not need a leash to roam around. If needed, we do have leashes in case.


18. Courtney Y.
“Courtney was so great with Brody! She kept in touch about everything and sent pictures and a video which was great. Brody loves her and I am so happy to have someone reliable to care for our dog.”


19. Tara D.
“Tara D took care of my 3 dogs recently when I took a trip to New Orleans. She kept me updated every day with their activity level, their appetites, how they enjoyed their walks with her, and sent lots of pictures! With her years of Vet tech experience , she was able to alert me to some health issues that one of my dogs was having that I wasn’t aware of, and I got her to the vet immediately after I got home. I highly recommend Tara as a pet sitter and I would absolutely have her watch my pets again when I take my next adventure!”


20. Erin H.
“Erin is amazing with animals! She is so caring and knowledgeable. I remember when she drove for days through different states to help transport a rescue dog. She is extremely responsible and loving. She’s one of the only people I would trust with my two energetic dogs.”
