“Holland did a fantastic job caring for our new puppy. She communicated with me before, during, and after the visit. I arrived home to a very happy dog who no longer bites at my fingers! Thank you Holland. Highly recommend!”
“Monica did a home sit with our senior dog for a week.He can be skittish and we could see in the photos she sent that within a day or two he was very comfortable with her. She also collected our mail and feed the fish in our pond. The house was spotless when we returned. She had good questions about Buddy's needs in our initial meeting that showed she cared about the assignment. We plan to book Monica again in the future and highly recommend her.”
“Stephanie is a joy as always! I trust her completely with my two dogs. She is super sweet and helpful around the house too. Very responsive. Highly recommend.”
“Ixchel stepped in at the last minute to watch our dog, Rue. Rue can be shy and anxious around new people, and Ixchel knew exactly how to approach her. She provided regular updates and we felt relieved knowing Rue was in good hands. Would recommend her services!”
“Our bulldog went straight to Moni wagging her tail. I knew it was a great match. Our cat is pretty standoff and took to her as if she was part of the family. Moni took great care with our two babies. We will definitely be booking her in the future.”
“Julie was wonderful watching our dog Zoey for 10 days! I was worried about being gone that long, but she was super responsive the whole time and sent lots of pictures and updates. She was great at playing with Zoey and giving her lots of good walks. She kept our apartment spotless and was a perfect houseguest. I would highly recommend her for any and all dog walking and wouldn't hesitate to use her again!”
“Hello, Jocabet did an amazing job house sitting my fur babies! She is very attentive to their care and gave them an abundance of cuddles and snuggles. Her attention to detail during the meet and greet was impeccable! All my fur babies were sad to see her go! I recommend Jocabet hands down for any type of care you may need for your fur babies! Best, Kim”
“Kevin came through for Kingston and me, even in the snow and ice. I appreciated his flexibility and early arrival time and from all I could see he took excellent care of Kingston. I would definitely use him again for dog-sitting.”
“Mari was fabulous! She took great care of our pup Peach, sent pictures and updates, and asked a lot of great questions to make sure she gave Peach the best care while we were gone.”
“Gabby is a kind, reliable sitter who went above and beyond for my anxious pup. She went out of her way to help make sure my dog was comfortable with her before petsitting. She was in touch the entire time I was away and sent many photos. I would absolutely hire Gabby again.”
“We had a great experience with Jason watching Bruno at our house. He was very responsive and gave plenty of updates! Would definitely book him again!”
“Leidy did a wonderful job with my two rambunctious pups. She was very flexible with timing and willing to stay an extra day when my return got delayed. She sent pictures and daily updates. She even washed after herself witch was not necessary but very appreciated. I will definitely hire her again next time I travel!”
“Melanie was great with our first ever rover booking! I was very nervous to leave my baby Milo behind but she did an awesome job keeping up with pictures, videos, and replying back to my texts quickly to make me and my husband feel reassured!”

Ayah was a terrific sitter for our cat. She was thorough in getting the information she needed to provide quality care, made a real effort to connect with Luna, stepped up to provide some extra care that was needed at the time, and provided me with the updates I needed to feel confident about Luna's time without us. She is responsible, positive, resourceful, capable, and caring. The sitter you want!
Ixchel stepped in at the last minute to watch our dog, Rue. Rue can be shy and anxious around new people, and Ixchel knew exactly how to approach her. She provided regular updates and we felt relieved knowing Rue was in good hands. Would recommend her services!
