1. Izzy Y.

“Izzy was the best pet sitter ever. I felt at ease when I was away while she was taking care of my pups. She communicated and updated me about my pups per night with lots of photos! I came home to happy dogs! I definitely recommend her as being your pet sitter as well! I cannot wait for her to take care of my pups for my future trips!”


2. Nicki A.
“Nicki was great! She gave Sampson a lot of attention, she was on time and very reliable… and left my house as clean as when she arrived. We already booked her again.”


3. Autumn W.

“Autumn did such a wonderful job with our pup! We recently rescued her and she can be very anxious with strangers, but she warmed up quickly to Autumn. We were worried leaving her at home for the first time but were quickly reassured by the photos and updates Autumn sent. 10/10 would recommend her!”


4. Carolyn T.

“What a wonderful person, I felt comfortable leaving my 10 year old cat, LordTubbington with Carolyn. I think the two of them really hit it off of future trips of mine will be much easier now that we found Carolyn she will be pet sitting for me in the future.”


5. Jeena G.

“Jeena did a great job dog sitting for us, especially given somewhat late notice and significant snow and ice during our booking. It was our first time using a dog sitter, and we will definitely use her again in the future.”


6. Gabi S.

“Gabi was amazing with our dog while we were in St Louis for a show. We needed someone last minute to stay with him in our hotel because he’s afraid of storms and the weather was questionable. He immediately warmed up to her and we had a great night knowing he wasn’t alone.”


7. Becky G.

“Becky did a wonderful job caring for my pet. She was very happy and relaxed when I returned home and my house was in great shape. I will definitely ask Becky to help me again with my pet when I leave town next.”


8. Cara F.

“Cara was absolutely the best house sitter for our Mabel during our recent vacation. She is attentive, dependable, kind, and organized. This was our first time using Rover house sitter and we couldn't have been more happy. Knowing our dog was in great hands made such a difference in our vacation and peace of mind. I don't know how we got so lucky to get Cara, but we are so very thankful for her! Simply outstanding service!”

10. Terry O.

“Terry was fabulous! He and our dog Gus bonded beautifully—hung out together, went for runs, played ball…we got frequent updates on how Gus was doing, along with photos and videos. Highly recommend Terry!”


11. Megan C.

“Megan was delightful! A true professional, she sent wonderful updates about our 2 dogs while we were gone for a long weekend. Our pups were well cared for and the house was beautifully maintained. Will def re-book for future events. Thanks again Megan!”

13. Brenda B.

“I’m not sure I can put into words how wonderful Brenda is. I was very nervous to leave my puppy for the first time. She was so patient with all of my instructions and took the best care of my little guy. She sent me so many updates and made me feel so at ease. I was able to enjoy my trip without constantly worrying about my pup. Will 100% hire her again! (And she did some laundry and cleaning for me😊) wonderful and kind lady and an amazing puppy sitter!”

“Nicole was amazing! She took great care of our dog while we were out of town for the weekend, sending frequent updates. Our dog was so excited to see her when she arrived. We would definitely recommend booking with Nicole!”


16. Nicole J.

“Nicole was amazing with house sitting our two dogs while we were out of town for New Years. She kept I. Communication with us the whole time and she connected with them right when they met her. She was so considerate that she even picked up their messes in the backyard when she didn’t at all have to do that. It was so nice to come home to a clean house and well taken care of dogs. Especially when you don’t get home until later in the afternoon. Nicole is awesome!”


17. Dylan R.

“It's never easy when you have to leave your dogs for an extended period of time, especially on really short notice. There couldn't have been a better person to watch our two dogs than Dylan. He kept us up to date with pictures and information. The dogs were very well taken care of. The house was in ever better condition than when we left it as well! I have another (planned) trip coming in a few months and will definitely be using Dylan again! Thank you so much for taking great care of my two big dogs!”


18. James P.

“James is the best. He really melted Tuggy’s heart and is such a great caregiver! He stayed with Tuggy most days and nights! He stayed until we got home Sunday afternoon. He sent us multiple pictures to put our minds at ease so we could really enjoy our weekend away with family! The best thing was how calm Tug seems now that we are home — he is not frantic and clingy as he often is when we get back. I recommend James. He’s reliable and really loves dogs! Thanks James. We and Tuggy hope to see you soon. Shari.”


19. D'Andra D.

“D’Andra was the best! Our animals loved having her and she even made friends with our scaredy cat. She took care of our house and animals like they were her own. We will definitely be using her again! Thank you D’Andra!”


20. Preston S.
“Preston is an incredibly gentle and patient person, which makes him absolutely amazing with animals. He’s one of only two people I’ve ever trusted to watch Dolly (my crazy BC x ACD mix) outside of my immediate family—a true testament to how much confidence I have in him. He was incredibly attentive to all my (OCD) notes, ensuring every little thing was just right. Preston genuinely cared about making Dolly feel happy, safe, and loved. For feline friends, rest assured that Preston has plenty of experience there too—he lived with cats for over a decade. Whether canine or feline, you and your fur-baby are lucky to have found him! Hannah and Dolly”
