1. Astrid N.

“Astrid was wonderful! We gave her a quick run down of what our pup needed and she took it from there. She made our dog feel safe and happy and even stayed a little longer for us. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs their dog in checked on. Will definitely book with her again.”


2. James F.

“James was fantastic! He was incredibly kind and sweet with the pups and very communicative throughout our trip. We received photos and updates during every visit and the puppies thoroughly enjoyed his visits! We look forward to booking James again!”


3. Anna K.
“I’ve known Anna for years, and one thing that’s always stood out is her deep love and connection with animals. She’s grown up around dogs her whole life—big breeds like Shepherds and Saint Bernards were always part of her family—and she now has a cat of her own, Sasha, who she’s lovingly cared for over the past five years. Anna has a calm, gentle energy that pets naturally gravitate toward, and she’s incredibly responsible when it comes to their care. Whether it’s a long walk with a pup by the ocean or cozy time with a cat curled up beside her, Anna always makes animals feel safe, happy, and loved. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my own pet in her care—she’s one of the most trustworthy and kind-hearted people I know.”


4. David G.

“David was fantastic and reliable over a long holiday stay! He came for daily drop in visits over Christmas and New Year’s and I felt secure that our cat was in good hands. He shared cute photos each visit, and took care in cleaning up when our cat got sick! Would recommend his services anytime!”


5. Alejandra G.
“My pup absolutely adores Alejandra! As a close personal friend, Alejandra has spent countless hours with my dog before starting her Rover business and has exceptional proven experience as a remarkable, patient, caring, and trustworthy caregiver for pups. She has always shown genuine attentiveness to my pup's playful energy and unique personality and my pup has always been so excited to see Alejandra. I couldn't recommend a more responsible and loving pet caregiver!”


6. Kinsey N.
“Kinsey is a dog lover. She is very responsible and will treat your pet with love and care. She will treat your pet like it is her own. She will also handle entry into your home with respect and care. Her sweet and fun personality will make your dog excited for her to come back time and again.”


7. Lauren L.
“Lauren is such a big animal person and has been watching my animals when I go out of town, (2 cats and 2 dogs). She is always amazing with them and keeps us posted. Such an awesome person and animal lover!”


8. Sarah K.

“Sarah was amazing. She was great with both a puppy and an old man dog at the same time. Very pleasant, helpful, gave frequent updates, and I came home to happy pups.”


9. Samantha H.
“Sam was incredible with my two dogs. She was very attentive, took them on long walks and played with them. The dogs always seemed a little sad to be returned home from their aunt Sam’s house. Seriously, she’s incredible with doggies.”


10. Meghan L.

“Thank you so much Meghan! This was the third time we booked Meghan to take care of our kitties and couldn’t be happier! Super responsive and friendly and uploaded lots of pics of Bug and Pebbles while we were away. I can tell they love her!!!”


11. Kasey H.

“Kasey was wonderful to work with! She took great care of my two cats while I was away. I appreciated the updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind knowing my cats were happy and comfortable. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future!”


12. Evan W.
“Evan is a great pet sitter! He has taken care of my cat, Corndog, a few times even though I know he's a dog person at heart. Regardless, he's always shown Corndog great love and care and she loves having him around. Whenever we're out and see a dog Evan always lights up. He would be a great care giver for dogs of all shapes and sizes since he tends to be quite the golden retriever himself :)”


13. Julia O.

“Julia is amazing! She checked in multiple times on my 3-month-old puppy while I was out for the day and did an amazing job. She’s experienced with dogs, and communication was great throughout. I felt totally comfortable trusting her with my puppy and my home. Best of all, my puppy loved her. Would definitely recommend!”




14. Britney D.

“Britney has been giving excellent care to our 5 year old maltipoo with regular drop in visits during the past year. She is reliable and a great communicator. We can tell that our shy dog really loves her and enjoys his visits with her. Thank you, Britney, for all you’ve done for Pluto!”


15. Stephanie G.
“I have used Stephanie multiple times to watch my sweet Kitty while out of town for work. She always provides reliable and loving care and I know I don’t have to worry about anything when she is there. My cat loves her and I’ve received some of the cutest pictures of my cat from Stephanie while I’ve been gone. Highly recommend!”


16. Lisa S.

“Lisa is an amazing dog sitter! She is gentle and kind to my dog who currently can’t walk and is having health issues.”


17. Wendy N.

“Wendy was so great! She is friendly and professional and provided detailed reports about how my pet was doing while I was away. Very much appreciated her help and will definitely be booking her again in the future!”


18. Ellyot C.

“Ellyot was great with my cat, playing with her and even teaching her tricks while I was gone! Ellyot also communicated clearly about visit timing and took great photos to update me. Overall, I felt very at ease leaving my cat in Elloyt's care while I was out of the country. :)”


19. Dannielle G.
“Dannielle was so nice. My dog was hesitant at first but I think her previous experience with animals has carried over because as soon as my dog showed any hesitance, she let him smell her hand and started petting him and he was all good to go! Never had an issue, my dog always knows he’s about to go on a walk when he sees her so he’s always happy to see her, couldn’t ask for more! She’s always polite and professional and it provides peace of mind and an overall great experience!”


20. Lili M.

“Lili was amazing! Very responsive and accommodating. She treated Ollie very well and kept me updated! He is excited to spend time with her again the next time I travel!!”
