“Cory was amazing! He took care of my dogs and house as if it was his. He kept us updated, left my house better than what it was. I will definitely be reaching out again to have him stay with the animals. Thank you Cory!! I appreciate you so much!”

“Jayda always takes such good care of my house and pup! I can tell everything is cared for as if it was her home and gives my dog lots of lovings. Being away is always nerve-racking for me but I feel at ease knowing my baby is being well taken care of!”

“Adrienne was so fantastic with our animal babies. When we came home, it was obvious they had been taken care of and were very happy. They were fed and the house was clean. We can’t say enough good things about her! ❤️❤️❤️”

“Best pet sitter ever! Benita is amazing with my pack and she took wonderful care of them. Dealt with their quirks;, provided lots of updates with pics and video, administered medications and kept them all happy and loved. Will definitely book again lots! I highly recommend her for any and all pets. She is wonderful! Came home to happy, healthy pets :)”
“This is a late review, but finally getting around to it. Ami is a great dog sitter! She spends lots of time with my dog and shares photos and videos regularly. I'm fairly certain she fell in love with Bauer (it happens), and will likely fall in love with your pet too.”

About: Experienced pet owner with house sitting experience and care of the following: -Dogs -Cats -Fish(salt/fresh) -Reptiles -Birds(including chickens) Happy to work with puppies, elder dogs, energetic or docile. I can usually work around your required schedule, I am a military reservist, so one weekend a month, which I will be unavailable for about 8 hours each day. I am only able to offer services for puppies in my home as I have four adult dogs. I have a large fenced yard, and can work on potty training, kennel training, and dog door training.
“This woman is a blessing! We had her house sit/pet sit our house and dogs (Japanese Akita and Shiba) for 3 weeks and she did an amazing job. Very professional and respectful. She kept in touch with me daily about the boys and the house, with zero issues. I recommend her 💯 Thank you Jenny 😊”

About: I house/dog sat during high school and picked it up again while going to flight school. I fell into it again recently house and dog sitting for friends at church and decided to do it more professionally since I really enjoyed it. In total I have 3 years experience. I currently work part-time while studying and have time during the winter to watch your dogs, cats, or house. I am available weekdays and weekends! Since I am a very organized person, when caring for animals on a schedule or on medication I can make the transition very easy for the animals as well as owner!
About: I’ve owned dogs pretty much my entire life with the exception of the past few years and would enjoy a job that I look forward to instead of dread going each day while I attend EMT classes. I’ll take your dog on walks, play dates at the dog park, hikes, or simply enjoy their company. I’m not sure what else to put in this thing other than while I was working at a higher class hotel, I couldn’t help myself from introducing and welcoming the guests dogs to our hotel before the actual guest staying with us. Feel free to ask any questions needed. Open to all dog adventure requests. I have recently moved to Alaska, so my schedule is wide open at the moment and it would be a dream to be able to make this my main source of income for the time being while pursuing a more sustainable career. I see pets as a part of the family, which means they'll be treated as such. I'll just have to remind myself they're not my children 🤣
“Jessie was wonderful, she was able to help us out last minute. She sent us updates on our dogs with pictures and left our house very clean. You can tell the dogs were very comfortable with her and had a good time.”

“Tynesha took really great care of our home and our babies, even to the point of having to scour the house to find the "hider." But she did it! They were well fed and cared for during our trip. Good and fast communication, she received and stored our package deliveries for us. House was clean and fresh on our arrival back! We are ever grateful for Tynesha's care for all of us! Not having to worry about your home and pets while on leave is a very nice feeling!”

“Kate was friendly, easy going. We have always used close family friends & neighbors & were a bit nervous about trying an online service. Kate was wonderful! I felt like i left dog & home in safe hands. Returned home to a happy dog! Thanks Kate & Rover”

“Amy did a phenomenal job with my doggos - I received regular updates and they definitely enjoyed their time with her. She was both understanding and accommodating when details changed last minute. Highly recommended.”


“I am so grateful to Zack! I have a very fearful/anxious rescue dog who was severely abused by her original human. We are new to Alaska, and have been hesitant to travel because we hadn't found a pet sitter here yet. The last person we had hired to watch the dog failed to ever get her out of the house for a bathroom break. When I found out I had to travel out of state for 2-3 weeks for heart surgery, I was so anxious about the dog that I almost had my partner stay home to take care of the dog. But we met with Zack and he showed that he has the knowledge, patience, and just intuition to be able to handle our dog. It was so reassuring and I am so grateful that he was here to watch my dog (and 2 cats!) so I could focus on my health. He was professional, communicative, and respectful of our home. Thank you, Zack!!”

“Katy is warm, communicative, kind, easy to work with, and goes above and beyond to be an excellent house & petsitter. She took such good care of my animals. I'm DELIGHTED to have gotten to connect with her here, and felt so grateful that she was watching my house and my dog & cat while I was out of town. As soon as I got back to town, I immediately started thinking about when I might work with her next - for future travel. I highly recommend her!”

“Alicia was wonderful with my boys! She spent so much time with them, loving on them and taking them for walks, and sent daily updates! Will definitely have her watch them again!”

“Dru is great! This was our pup's second time with her and she gave updates, photos and communicates well. We came home to happy dogs and were pleased with the comfort level we felt while we were away.”
“Lauren was fantastic with our senior pup while we were out of town for a few days! She was on time, followed all our instructions, sent regular updates, and some great pics! She also took great care of our house, you couldn't even tell she'd been here! We were fortunate to find Lauren on Rover and will definitely use her services again!”

“Sorona has been fantastic. She has watched our baby three times so far. Diamond absolutely loves her. Excellent communication and pictures. We have Sorona booked again for a future trip already. You absolutely cannot go wrong with Sorona.”
