As always, my boys and my house were confidently in the best of hands with Mallory. Both my dog and my cat absolutely love Mallory and my house is always under exceptional care. Seriously couldn’t recommend a better sitter.

Oli was very communicative, left our house cleaner than we left it, and our pup was so well-taken care of for the two weeks we were gone!! We could very much tell when we got home, and by the funny tidbits Oli sent us that showed how much she was in tune with Maddie! We would definitely use Oli again! And so appreciate how happy Maddie was and how clean everything was upon our arrival! When we came home in between her departing and us getting back, she even had calm music playing for Maddie! Oli is a gem! ❤️

haley took wonderful care of my three pups this weekend. i have two mini-aussies and an aussie/husky mix, so basically three high-energy and high-velcro pups. from their gps/fitness collars, i saw she was going above and beyond to make sure they were well-exercised. through the cameras, i saw she was taking the time to sit on the couch and watch tv for a few hours a day to keep them company as well and the pups were either flipped over for belly rubs or asleep on the floor. haley was very communicative and sent lots of pictures as well.

Kira and her family have been taking care of my Sooki for a number of years now, so I trust her immensely. You can tell immediately that Kira loves animals. She is kind, conscientious, and follows directions perfectly. If you have a request she follows up quickly and follows through. Your pet will be well taken care of ! I highly recommend her for all of your pet care needs.

About: I have over eight years of hands on pet care experience, including caring for a diabetic dog requiring consistent monitoring and medication management. I have cared for small, medium, and large dogs, as well as cats and other household pets. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and have a dog of my own. I’m available for regular walks, check ins, and plenty of attention throughout the day, with extra time on weekends for long walks, dog parks, and outdoor play. Whether in my home or a client’s home, the pet’s safety, comfort, and well being always come first. I follow their routine closely, maintain a clean environment, provide attentive supervision, and ensure they feel secure and cared for at all times.

Jenna took excellent care of our three dogs while we were away. With ages ranging from 11 to 5, each with different personalities and needs—including medications, specific feeding routines, and leash walks for our middle dog recovering from surgery—she followed our instructions carefully and made sure each pup was well cared for. She also treated our home with respect, leaving everything clean and tidy, and even took out the trash before she left. We’d be happy to have Jenna back again.

We hired Victor for a drop-in visit as well as a long weekend petting sitting in our home. He's wonderful! Highly recommended. We have both dogs and a cat, he's great with all of them! From the first time he met us/our pets, we could tell he has lots of experience with pet care. One of our dogs is a little nervous, one can be aggressive/protective around unknown dogs, one is a sneezy old cat - he navigated all three of them with ease and know-how.

Have used Liesel multiple times for dog sitting in my home, most recently for a 9 day stay while I was out of the country. She took great care of my guy, making sure he got plenty of exercise and taking him for outdoor adventures, plus couch snuggles. Sent me daily updates and pictures and took good care of my home.

Lupe is great! From the initial meet-and-greet visit through her nine nights with our elderly dog, she was professional, attentive, and great with communication. She provided regular updates and even coordinated directly with our neighbors who were helping at various times. We chose to book with her based on all of her great Rover reviews, and they are definitely accurate. We would love to have her again!

Hannah took great care of both my home and my cats while I was away.

When we had a hiccup with normal pet care plans, Liz swooped in on short notice and took fantastic care of our energetic little munchkin Billie. She can be a lot to handle and Liz did a great job - we really appreciated the thorough and frequent updates and her eagerness to ask when questions came up! The house was tidy when we got back :) Billie was clearly in great hands and we’d love to have Liz back to care for Billie in the future!
