“Jennifer was awesome when we had to get a sitter for my dog and cat on short notice over Christmas! My boxer can be a handful, but she kept everything running smoothly and sent adorable pics.”

“Ellen was absolutely amazing! Super flexible with some strange arrangements helping us look after our dog in a downtown hotel. Very kind and Poppy took to her immediately. Would highly highly recommend.”


“We are so grateful to have had Laurel stay with our dog Izzy while we were away! She was incredibly reliable and flexible, regularly checked in with updates, and clearly cared for our pup as if he were her own. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and a spotless house. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Laurel for anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!”

“Courtney has house sit with my 2 fur babies. They love her very much! She plays with them gives them much love. I come home to 2 happy healthy babies. My one dog is a senior with a heart condition and it’s like I never left. I 100% recommend her for any pet services.”


“I would highly recommend Nathan! Nathan truly saved us in a really hard situation where another rover sitter abandoned our dog mid-stay (because my dog was anxious and barking), and we were out of town. Nathan immediately offered to help even though he had never met my dog or myself before. He listened to me talk on the phone for over 20 minutes about my dogs complicated medication schedule and assured me he was happy to help. Nathan sent constant updates and went above and beyond to spend extra time with my dog. I will 100 percent be booking Nathan next time I need a sitter and my dog adores him!”

“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! :)”

“We really appreciated how conscientious Krista was with our chihuahua. From the meet n greet straight through the end, Krista was friendly, communicative, and attentive to our dog’s needs. We’d hire her again in a heartbeat 😊”

“Dan was fantastic with our girls. He provided lovely updates throughout the day and I knew our girls were well taken care of. We will definitely be booking again!”

“10/10 recommend Sky. She was available on short notice and was available for a meet and greet the next day. My pup took to her immediately! Sky was prompt in arrival and departure. She sent me regular updates and my home was very tidy upon return. If Sky had any care questions, she sent them my way. Your pup or cat will certainly be adored if they have Sky caring for them!”
“Dee Dee was great. She watched our pets over the holidays, and left our house clean, and communicated well during our trip. Our dog is very shy and she was very patient and let our dog warm up to her, which we certainly appreciated!”


“Jackie did a great job with our cat and dog. She sent us regular updates and the house was in great shape when we got back. She even kept our plants alive through a hot spell. Thank you, Jackie!”


“Jacob was AMAZING with our four...challenging pets (two cats, two dogs). His communication with us was clear and consistent throughout our entire trip, he followed all of our instructions exactly as we asked, and our animals (and house!) were all well taken care of. I can't recommend Jacob enough!”

“Rocky is always happy when we get home after Liz has spent time with him. She takes him on nice, long walks, and you can tell she really loves animals!”

“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!”

“I had a great experience with this Warren and wouldn’t hesitate to book again. He took the time to ask thoughtful questions about Henry beforehand, which gave me confidence that he genuinely cared about providing the best care possible. While I was away, he was extremely communicative, sending regular updates and plenty of pictures. He was always very responsive whenever I reached out, and it was clear Henry was in great hands. I truly appreciate the care and attention he provided, and I look forward to using his services again!”

Kaylah did a great job with my pups. I returned to happy, well loved pups. She was very communicative and responsive through text while I was abroad. Kaylah was a very considerate guest and I returned to my home just as I left it. I appreciated her kindness and communication. Would happily work with Kaylah again.
This was first time having Taylor sit for my boy Captain, and she was absolutely wonderful! She stayed at my apartment for a week, and everything went great. She came over and met Captain before the actual stay, and was so accommodating to Captain’s needs. She sent plenty of updates and photos throughout the week, and she also left my apartment spotless for when I got home. I am so thankful I found her, and I would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs. Captain loved her, and she’ll always be my first choice from now on for watching him. Thank you again!

Outstanding! Marcella went above and beyond! Right from the start she noticed my door handle was loose and fixed it. She updated me often, walked my dog Pepper and kept her occupied and safe. She even comforted her when there was a crazy storm outside (she usually doesn’t care about storms) 10/10. She is so sweet and kind. Would absolutely recommend!

Mathilde was excellent - she was very communicative throughout and went above and beyond, trying to make sure my dog Molly (who can be picky eating) ate her food and took her medicine, and got her fill of walks and outdoor time. She also comforted Molly during a thunderstorm and shared great photos from the walk. Mathilde is a superstar!

Lillie did a great job with her drop in and overnight visit with our Lexi. She is a very conscientious individual who kept us well Informed of everything that was happening while we were away. We felt extremely comfortable with her caring for our 15 year old cockapoo while we were away and we definitely will use her again in the future. Beth
Ari did a wonderful job taking care of my dog (and my house!) while I was out of town. She gave timely updates, was extremely responsive and sent lots of pictures so I was sure he was happy and well taken care of. She also took great care of my house, doing laundry before she left and leaving the place looking just the way she found it. I would absolutely recommend Ari and book again.

Jovelle was a wonderful cat sitter! She house sat and took care of my very social, playful cat while I was away. Jovelle is an outstanding communicator, which made me feel comfortable and at ease. She sent me photos and a detailed update multiple times per day, which included mealtime details and updates on play time. I came home to a spotless house and a very happy kitty! I recommend Jovelle for pet sitting!

Elise was reliable and communicated well throughout her week of dog sitting for our two sweet, but neurotic pups. She did her homework before meeting with us, so she knew just what our dogs needed. We got pictures and updates daily. When Rocky needed anxiety meds to help him handle a fireworks show, she got right on it, and everything went fine. The dogs and apartment looked great when we got back.
