1. Marty L.

“My dog was well cared for and my house was in great shape when I got home. She even brought in my mail and garbage. Marty was very flexible with the schedule at the last minute.”


2. Ona M.

“We had an absolutely fabulous first experience with Ona staying in our home and watching our kitty Mira while we were in Bermuda for two weeks. What a great communicator!! And she was so willing to do all kinds of extras that come with a large home and land—including putting out corn for our wildlife friends and making sure our gardens didn’t wilt in the unexpected heat wave. Our kitty absolutely adored her, and she wants us to go away again soon so that she can snuggle and play with Ona again :) Thank you for everything, Ona. It was a joy to have you watching over our home.”


3. Deja S.

“Deja was truly so wonderful with our dog and cat for our extended trip out of town. This was their first experience with a sitter and we could tell how happy both of them were under Deja’s care. It made our trip so much easier knowing they were being well taken care of. Our dog can get pretty reactive with certain triggers and Deja did an amazing job handling that and making sure they were properly accustomed to each other beforehand. She was super attentive to detail and provided consistent updates and photos. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of our fur babies!!!”


4. Katie F.


“Katie is the best. Our dogs absolutely love her and i never have to worry about anything when she is with them.”


5. Sophia N.

“Sophia was very kind and sweet when she came to meet Molly, my golden retriever. She stayed overnight, walked and took care of Molly providing pictures and a short video. I would definitely book her to care for my dog again!”


6. Jamie M.

“Jamie took great care of our dogs. He asked plenty of questions at the front end to ensure he gave the dogs the best care and provided plenty of updates during his stay”


7. Morgan A.

“Amazing!!! Could not recommend Morgan highly enough!!! She house and pet sat our dog, quaker parrot, rat, and fish for about a week and did a fantastic job! We recieved frequent updates and pictures, and all of our animals LOVED her (even our very finicky bird!). We did 2 meet-and-greets prior to our trip and Morgan was always on time, polite, and professional. She asked lots of relevant questions and really cared for our pets as if they were her own. If you're looking for someone prompt, professional, and great with animals, Morgan is your person!!!”


8. Daniel H.

“Daniel was a fabulous dog and house sitter. He went above and beyond in taking great care of my 16 year old spaniel and kept me up to date with reports amd pictures. I’ll be sure to contact him the next time I need help.”


9. Nikki E.

“Very reliable, friendly and communicative. Took the time to get to know our pets and helped us out when we greatly needed it. Will use again and highly recommend”


10. Barbara Esther E.


“Barbara did a great job watching our dogs and cats for the weekend! She communicated well and sent frequent pictures, which really helped put my mind at ease. She took my dogs on lots of walks, which they loved and was patient with them while they got used to her. Highly recommend!”

“Ryan a perfect animal lover dog/ cat sitter!!! He always kept me up to date and sent pics often;). Bruno got plenty of exercise and my home was left in perfect condition!!! I could not be happier to know my pets were well cared for and to come home to my place in order!”


12. Kayligh W.

“This was our first time using Rover.com and we were skeptical however Kayligh was amazing. Our dog and cat loved her and when we got back we couldn’t even tell she had been there. The house was how we left it. We will definitely be booking again. She also stayed an extra hour which was really nice, walked the dog, cuddled and played with our dog and sent us pictures. She also got back to us really quickly when we had questions which made us feel like she cared.”


13. Kyleigh C.

“Kyleigh is a lovely young lady who has so much compassion for animals. It was wonderful having her watch my 4 dogs. She sent tons of pictures and the dogs were super happy with her. She left my house clean. I plan on using her a lot in the future!”


14. Allison F.

“Allison did a wonderful job taking care housesitting my 2 girls this weekend. She was available and flexible with what I needed and left the house the way she found it. My dogs were happy when we came back, I would definitely ask her services again and recommend her to anyone!”


15. Alexis V.
“She took wonderful care of our pets and our home!”


16. Rich M.

“Rich was really flexible and nice enough to stay with our dogs for a full day. Haylee our German Shepherd and Aussie mix really like Rich. We will definitely use him again. He showed a lot of caring due to asking things. He was also willing to watch Sparky too (may have been new to disc problems) and handled it well. We will definitely request Rich again!”


17. sierra w.

“Sierra was awesome with our dog! She communicated frequently with us and sent pictures often! We will definitely have her back in the future!!”

19. Elizabeth D.
About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life including 3 dogs(Black lab, yorkshire terrier, and husky) and have dogsat/taken care of 4 of friends and family members (pit bull mix, 2 labs, and a german shepard/husky mix). With all of them I either stayed there during the day or stopped in throughout the day. Im currently not in school and am looking into real estate where i can take an online course. I also waitress mostly friday nights, saturday nights, and sunday nights(occasionally doubles). Other than that im free for a majority of the week!😁 When I was still living back home I was able to care for our outdoor cat and her kittens, my dog while he was sick (sadly he has passed), and even baby raccoons!


20. Emmett M.
“Emmett has a way with animals. He stayed with my dogs while I was out of town and my girls loved him. He is calm, patient, and gentle in his care. I highly recommend him as a sitter!”
