“Paulina was amazing!!! I highly recommend her. She took amazing care of Buddy and was super thoughtful and kind and provided updates and pictures and did much more than I asked her to do!!!! Can’t say enough great things about her.”


“Jen was so wonderful - we would highly recommend her for pet/house sitting and we will definitely ask her to watch our pups again! She helped us with a last minute booking and was so flexible. Our dogs seemed happy and relaxed when we got home. She updated us often throughout the stay with pictures and we came home to our house looking great. She was wonderful with our dogs!”


“Sammy did a wonderful job caring for our pets: Zeiss, Freya, Reggie and the chickens! She was excellent about communicating daily by reaching out with questions or concerns, and providing a daily summary of how things went. In addition, she left a final day's report to let us know if we were running low on any supplies. I found Sammy to be respectful, communicative, responsible and she left the house neat and clean. The ONLY room for improvement would be if Freya was walked on her leash; - she is a puller and strong willed though, so I understand why! Sammy was wonderfully patient with Freya and her escapades of escaping our yard, and we worked together to find the right solution for keeping her safe and getting outdoor time. I can tell our cat loved the attention he got and I think he misses Sammy!”


“We spent a weekend away without our pups, and I’m very happy with the care provided! The communication was good, and I came home to very happy dogs. Taking care of three big dogs can be a lot, but that wasn’t an issue for Mo! My dogs took to Mo right away, and I felt very comfortable leaving them knowing they were in great hands. If you’re looking for a sitter, I highly recommend Mo!”


“If I could give 100 more stars, I would! Please don’t hesitate to book Rebecka. She is an absolute gem! Actually, I’m having a hard time giving this review since I want to keep her all to myself! 😉 Rebecka was incredibly reliable, went above and beyond to care for my dog (who got sick while I was gone) and kept me updated with photos and check ins throughout the stay. My dog clearly loved Rebecka, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Rebecka stayed at my home and after a long travel day, I came into a clean, tidy and organized house, with a very happy and well cared for dog. Perfect! Highly, highly recommended!”


“Jess was fantastic and showed Clay a lot of attention while we were away. She was very quick to respond when we had questions and sent lots of pictures during her time with Clay. I would strongly recommend her to anyone needing someone to look after their fur child while away from home.”


“Ann did a great job taking care of my dog and house while we were away for 7 days! The house is cleaner than we left it, she gave daily updates and kept my pup fed, walked and happy.”


“Thanks to Jennifer, we went away for the weekend and didn’t have to worry ONCE about our dog or our apartment! She gave us plenty of updates and photos, and was so caring toward our pup—infact she even went above and beyond and got her a ball since we had mentioned ours went missing recently. How thoughtful! Honey was so happy and calm when we returned. Thank you Jennifer!!”


“We used Tosya for a week stay with our two dogs. She was respectful of our home and took great care of our two dogs! She provided updates on them which was much appreciated and left the house as she found it. We would highly suggest Tosya for dog sitting and hope to use her again in the future!”


“James & Reichel did a fantastic job with our furbaby, Oscar. They were always responsive and prompt, and we would definitely hire them again!”


“I used Molly for the first time to pet sit my 16yr old dog who needed regular medication dispensing and care. Molly was attentive, sending photos/videos and updates as to how he was doing. I really value responsible and caring animal lovers; I can tell she is one of those people! I am already planning my next trip now that I have met Molly!”


“Ainsley, was great with my fur baby amazing , sent me updates and pictures did more then what was asked went above and beyond for my big baby I am very appreciative of her and would most definitely book her again and highly recommend.”


“Would highly recommended Haleigh. She was so accommodating and we loved that you could tell she gave our dogs tons of loving while we were away!”


“Danielle was amazing! Our pets didn’t want us to come home! We have a doggy who needs extra attention and Danielle was so good with her. She gave amazing updates along the trip. Highly recommend!”


“Emma did house-sitting for a week while we were away for a week. She has a very humble personality and is gentle with our dog. She is caring, attentive, and very punctual. Couldn't be happier with our experience! We will have Emma again, would highly recommend. She took care of our dog and home while we were away. Gave medicine to our dog and food on time. Thank you Emma!”


About: I have a 3 year old dog I have been taking care of since he was 3 months old so I am experienced with puppies, and adult dogs. I am home for the summer from college May 12-September 1st, working on Rover full time giving me plenty of time to provide your pup with lots of care and love. I will always be very respectful of my client’s space and treat it with the same care and delicacy as I would in my own home, I am always adherent to the client’s rules and instructions.

“Emily is a dream pet sitter! So kind, thoughtful, and easy to communicate with. She took such great care of my dog and cat—sending updates and photos while I was away. She was super patient with my somewhat fearful, nervous dog and took such great care of my home. I came home to two happy pets and a spotless house! I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Don’t hesitate to book her—your pets will be in the best hands!”


About: Hello! My name is Clara and I adore dogs. I grew up with 2 rambunctious boxers and was heavily involved in their puppy training and continued care. I now have the sweetest, little beagle mix of my own who is a gentle senior. She loves spending time with other dogs and so this is no barrier to accepting other dogs into my apartment! I am a medical student and also have abundant experience as a medical assistant and home health aid. Caring for others - whether dogs or humans - is my biggest passion and skill. I hope you give me the joy of caring for your dog! I’m a medical student so in general, drop in visits and walks work best for me on the weekends or at nighttime! However, I do have an ever changing schedule so please inquire for more information. I can easily crate your dog if needed, but am also happy to let them roam free if that is their preference. Your dog will always be leashed when I take them outside my apartment for walks. I love to take dogs out frequently (every 0-2 hours), so they get lots of outdoors time and stimulation! I also love playing games like tug of war. I truly have a very flexible schedule and can adapt to what your pet needs!


“Jared was great, attentive and communicated well. Was glad to have someone caring for my dog while he was in cone head mode and had to stay behind on Thanksgiving! Would definitely re-book”


About: Taking care of pets since a young age and being relied upon by neighbors, friends, and family to look after their pets has honed my responsibility, empathy, and caregiving skills. This experience has certainly contributed to my growth and made me better at caring for animals in general. I am currently in college studying for a vet tech degree, chasing my passion for animal care. My schedule allows ample time for pet care due to my part-time work commitments. I'm available during weekdays for pet sitting and have extended availability for boarding specifically on weekends. This flexibility ensures I can devote quality time to playing and caring for your pets when needed. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment. Without a yard, I ensure a secure indoor space and am equipped to use crates if necessary for the pets' safety and well-being. I maintain a clean and pet-friendly setting, provide ample playtime, regular feeding, and a comfortable resting area. Additionally, I offer constant supervision and ensure the environment is conducive to the pets' needs, fostering a sense of trust and security during their stay.
