“Ellen was absolutely amazing with my dog! From the moment we met her, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. She was attentive, responsible, and went above and beyond to make sure my dog felt comfortable, safe, and loved while I was away. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious my dog was not only well taken care of, but truly happy in her care. When I came home, everything was perfect—and my dog was calm and content, which says it all. I would 100% trust Ellen again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and dedicated dog sitter!”
“Mina is a friendly, calm, and communicative sitter! We had a very pleasant meet and greet despite my dogs being pretty annoying and yappy at strangers. She took wonderful care of my two pups for a housesit for a day, and it was clear from the photos that they warmed up to her quickly! Would gladly have her back and recommend her to other dog parents.”
“Duncan was a professional and responsible caretaker. He went above and beyond our expectations when he took care of our 2 dogs Honey and Pickles for two weeks. Before even starting the job, he met us in a freezing blizzard for a simple meet + greet, which I think immediately showed his dedication to the job. He also cleaned up around our house when the dogs were making a mess, not something that we asked him to do — but rather something that he proactively did. One of our dogs, Honey, has anxiety. Duncan even stood overnight on New Years Eve just to help her stay calm during the fireworks, which I believe is something your average dog caretaker wouldn’t do! He was also very responsive with text and sent us updates every day. I felt much peace of mind because I knew Duncan was taking our two dogs on 2 walks every day, feeding them on time, and spending some time with them too. I would definitely recommend Duncan to a friend and would rebook him myself!”
“First time using Rover and let’s just say we hit the jackpot! My wife & I usually use a family friend when we are traveling so when our pet sitter wasn’t available, we looked into options on Rover. After viewing several profiles, Angela met the description we were looking for & fortunately enough, she was available to watch our furbabies! Angela was responsive throughout the entire booking process & even stopped by earlier to meet our dynamite duo! From the moment Angela arrived, she provided updates regularly with the cutest pictures and videos making us know how comfortable Natalie & Nico were in her care! We will definitely be using Angela again! She left our house exactly how we left it — we cannot THANK her enough!!”
“Kristen was great from the meet & greet forward. At the meet & greet when I suggested a quick walk to shiw her where we go she took the leash and started harnessing Captain up. Was responsive, pleasant and a pleasure to deal with. I set a cadence expectation on check ins and she went above and with pictures. You can tell she respected my home during the stay. The most important part of knowing she did a good job was that Captain, while estatic to see me, was mopey the next day and you can tell he misses Kristen already. I will 100% be utilizing Kristen in the future.”
“Rowan was absolutely wonderful with Jasper!!! Made my anxiety with leaving him so much better. Constant check ins and great pictures 10/10 will be booking with Rowan again!!”
“Carrie was an amazing sitter. Attentive, communicative, and punctual. She went above and beyond to make sure my Bonnie was cared for the way I would take care of her. I will be rebooking with her for sure!”
“Emily is very good at what she does! She was super attentive to our pup and cats, sent lots of photos, communicated clearly, and took great care of our house. Your pets will be in great hands with her!”
“Stefan was a wonderful dog sitter for our 9 year old pitbull mix! He stayed the weekend with her, caring for all her needs and providing her company. His calm energy was a great match for our pup who can be a little anxious and wary of strangers. Stefan was also a very respectful guest in our home and kept us updated regularly with photos and how she was doing. Thank you Stefan!”
“Blue loved hanging out with Rachel. Rachel took great care of our puppy- shared back updates, followed his schedule, and she was super flexible. Highly recommend!”
“Sieanna did an absolutely amazing, above and beyond job looking after Banjo. I loved her updates and how much I could tell she enjoyed hanging out with him. I would book again in a heartbeat!”
“Dan was a life saver for watching my boys on relatively short notice when my friend cancelled. I'm always hesitant to have new people watch my pups because they are a bit quirky. But Dan suggested a meet and great and everyone seemed comfortable, including me! This trip was unlike any before because I literally had no cell service and I wasn't able to access wifi but a few times while gone. When I did finally get access, I caught up on plenty of pictures and updates on what was happening back home. This certainly put me at ease and I was able to enjoy being off the grid and know my boys were being exceptionally well taken of! Thank you Dan, I think Mannie and Jeter have found their new buddy while I'm away...”
“Stella was amazing! She watched Franklin overnight and did such a great job keeping me updated with pictures and messages throughout the stay. That meant so much to me especially since Franklin can get pretty anxious when I am away. I felt totally at ease knowing he was in good hands. I would absolutely recommend Stella and would happily book her again! :)”
“Stephanie stayed with our cat and senior pup for a week while we were on vacation. She was so wonderful! Stephanie took great care of our boys, house, and plants. She was very communicative and gave us daily updates on how everything was going. This allowed us to relax on our vacation knowing that our pets were in good hands. We will definitely be booking Stephanie again in the future and would highly recommend her for pet/house sitting! Thank you again for everything Stephanie!”
“Ashley was great! We just adopted our dog and he has some separation anxiety but he seemed to have a great time and we’re so glad he was in good hands.”
“Alana was so thoughtful, responsive, and lovely. She came through for us last minute and took great care of our dog Fannie! Alana made sure to communicate when she had questions and happily handled Fannie’s (many) quirks.”

Kirsten stayed in our apartment and took care of our dog for a week. Our dog is big and can be anxious, but Kirsten asked lots of questions, took detailed notes, and went above and beyond to make her comfortable. Kirsten also made communication easy while we were away. Highly recommend!!
Angela is truly a cat whisperer. We were away for almost two weeks and Angela put us at ease - sending us regular photos and updates of our three cats. It is clear that our kitties loved her. She was thorough with daily feeding and litter needs, and most importantly, did a lot of cuddle and enrichment activities with our cats. We would highly recommend Angela, and there is no doubt that we will be leveraging her again for our upcoming trips!
I would recommend Erin as a sitter. She was very detail oriented during our meet and greet. She arrived on time and departed on time. I received plenty of updates on my pup complete with the most ADORABLE photos. When I returned, my home was clean and tidy and my pup was calm and content. Overall 10/10 recommend!
Taylor has sat for our pup many times but this was her first overnight stay and it went GREAT. She stayed with Mr. Scruff for four nights and we were so thankful to not have to worry about him at all while we were gone. We got plenty of updates, she followed all of our instructions (especially important with his separation anxiety and reactivity), and was also a great houseguest. Our buddy was belly up, playing, and eating while we were away, which means he felt safe and happy — all we can ask for!
Ava was an amazing house/dog sitter for the weekend! She took amazing care of Archie and Cora and was very communicative throughout the entire process. She checked in every morning and evening and sent pictures, and we felt like the two of them were in great hands! We would definitely book Ava's services again in the future!
Mounika was absolutely wonderful! She stayed at our home with our 8-month-old puppy and provided thoughtful, regular updates throughout her stay, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Our puppy can be quite a handful at times, but he absolutely adores her. She was patient, attentive, and clearly cared for him as if he were her own. On top of that, she helped us navigate an unexpected HVAC issue while we were gone and left our home spotless. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would recommend her without hesitation. 100/10!
Emily is amazing. My dog can be extremely stubborn when she doesn’t want to go out but Emily was undeterred. Winnie also hates thunderstorms and there were several while Emily was watching her and Emily was so attentive to keeping Winnie calm during the storms. Emily also sent great photos and regular updates. I felt super at ease knowing Winnie was in Emily’s hands!
We had a wonderful experience with Layla! She took such great care of Ellie, sent lots of updates and photos, was quick to communicate, and even brought in packages that arrived while we were away. I was fully able to enjoy my time away knowing Ellie was in such good hands. She also helped with a last-minute walk request the week before our trip. She treated both our home and our pup with so much care and respect. She is reliable and trustworthy, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.
