“Kira was great with our puppy and two cats. She stayed at the house for 3 nights while we were away and was very clean and courteous. She asked great questions, and sent pictures too. We would love to have her back in the future.”


2. Katherine T.

“Katherine is amazing! She’s thoughtful, communicative, and takes great care of our home and pets. We’ve trusted her multiple times and couldn’t recommend her more!”


3. Jeffrey V.

“Jeffrey is fantastic! Very flexible and easy to communicate with, we really appreciated how willing he was to come over and meet our dogs twice before our trip. He was also more than willing to return to our house to let them outside for a quick break when we asked. Can’t recommend Jeffrey enough!”

My dog now loves Mary, I will continue to use her for all my dog sitting needs. She is absolutely amazing with all kinds of animals, so gentle and loving.”


9. Ian W.

“Ian's first housesitting with Carson went very well. He was dedicated to Carson's health and safety especially since there were unexpected thunderstorms. Ian comforted Carson throughout the day and night with lots of care, hugs and belly rubs. Ian was in communication each day and sent pictures as well. Carson had an added play date with Hailey too. Ian was respectful in our home and left it clean. All great qualities when someone is caring for your pet and staying in your home.”


10. Tara R.


“One word: amazing! Will definitely be using her again. She is so communicative and thoughtful. She let me know when she was at the house and gave frequent updates about our pups. She treated our house and dogs like her own! The dogs loved her and had a great time. 10/10 would recommend!”


11. Jolene W.

“I would highly recommend Jolene as your pet sitter. This was our first time using Rover. Having a stranger stay at our house and take care of our dogs made us very nervous , but after meeting with her a few times I felt more at ease with her. She asked all the right questions, she was very professional and my dogs took to her immediately. She did exactly what we needed her to do which included giving one of my dogs medication and a brushing because of a skin issue. She kept in touch with us, sent pictures and she left our house spotless, without a trace that she was there. She even asked where my vacuum cleaner was to make sure all dog hair was cleaned up before we got home. I am very pleased with our experience with her and would use her again. Thanks Jolene!!!”


12. Rachel O.

“We cannot thank Rachel enough for her kindness and patience with our dog Hank! He’s a sweet boy who take time to warm up to people and Rachel gave him just that. It’s so wonderful to see how happy he is when she comes over to play now. Her dedication and understanding of dogs is unmatched. Thank you Rachel!”


13. Samantha S.
“I have known Samantha for years. She is a very hardworking, reliable, responsible, and trustworthy person. She has had dogs the whole time I have known her. I have recommended her before to take care of dogs and they love her! I would trust her with any pet you have. Her relationship with her pets is unmatched. You would be lucky to have her taking care of yours!”


14. Carolyn T.
“Carolyn is a wonderful pet sitter. Responsible caring and respectful of my home and my time. She understands the needs of dogs and their accomodations.”


15. Lauren A.

“Lauren was a fantastic sitter. My pup is so excited to be with her and Lauren kept me up to date throughout the stay. She sent pictures and kept me updated on his schedule (potty, naps, food). The house was in the same condition as it was when we left. I will definitely be using her again.”


16. Ian M.
“Ian is a compassionate, respectful and kind pet sitter. He has always been wonderful with my big guy, Obi, who is a rowdy Great Dane. Who absolutely adores Ian. Ian has also treated my home as respectfully as my pup when doing overnight stays and going above and beyond the usual pet sitter. I cannot recommend Ian enough for your pet sitting needs!”


17. Riley P.
“Riley is a super hard working college student that is kind, caring, and very responsible. Riley is a nature and animal lover. Your pets will definitely be in good hands!”

Jill is selfless, out-going and she is always going out of her way to meet a new furry friend. Jill has a ton of experience with cats and dogs and will definitely take great care of your pet!”
