Grace stayed with our cat, dog and fish in our home for five nights. Our dog has major separation anxiety and our cat is older and has medical needs so I was nervous to leave them but quickly learned I had no reason to be. Grace provided the best care for them. She was responsible, met all their individual needs, was communicative, and respectful of our house. We highly recommend Grace. Our pets miss her already!

Grace was wonderful with my cat, Misha. She gave me regular updates and followed my cat’s super particular schedule. My cat was acting well loved when I got home. Everything went great; and I would not hesitate to have Grace housesit my cat again.

This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit nervous to dive in with a 3 night house sit. Josh made sure to send daily photos of my dog on walks or playing. He left my house clean and without asking he brought in the mail and took out the trash. I already have another service booked with him and would recommend him to others.

Shannon always goes above and beyond with our pups. She keeps us updated with frequent photos and messages, and really goes the extra mile to make sure they are well taken care of. She stayed at our house for a week with them, and really put us at ease while we were away. We love (and the pups love!) having Shannon watch them!!!

Emily house-sit our dog Amber for 4 days. I cannot recommend her enough and cannot wait to work with her again. First of all, she was able to stop by earlier in the day than I initially set the sitting for, and let Amber out midday and come back later to start the actual sitting. I hugely appreciated this since I made a mistake in the reservation start time. She was great with photo and text updates. From all the photos I could tell how happy Amber was. Her food and medication schedule was kept the same and she had lots of fun with Emily. And I have to say that the house was left immaculate. She went the extra mile to unload the dishwasher that I accidentally left in full, and took out all the trash. None of which were her responsibility but she truly went above and beyond and we appreciated all of it. We cannot wait to have her take care of Amber agan.

Carol is a very compassionate caretaker. Prior to our scheduled care, she took time to get to know our dog and what our preferences were for care in our home. During the stay, she reassured us with updates and pictures, every morning and every night. She was responsive and responsible, and when we returned, our home was tidy and our dog was relaxed and content. We will definitely be requesting Carol's services again.

It felt so good going away and leaving our dog and cat and house in janette’s care. We booked her super last minute for Thanksgiving week and she came and did a meet and greet next day and was very sweet with our pets and sent pictures and updates. Highly recommend and will definitely connect with her again for care.

She was amazing with our golden retriever puppy! She sent daily updates which made us feel so much better while we were gone. When we got back, he was so happy and sweet. She also house sat and left everything in great shape.

Gabriel was fantastic.. He made sure to have taken out and kept the house clean. He also got a smaller bag of food for the pups as the bags that were in the pantry ran out. The fish were fed daily, He took both dogs for walks daily too and shoveled out some snow from the deck to make a path for them to get to the yard and cleared out snow from the stairs from the deck too. I’m so happy with his work. Highly recommend

Ethan took great care of my 2 dogs. One of my dogs was newly adopted and still working through some behavior issues but Ethan handled it very well and was a great communicator while I was away. He will take great care of your dogs too.

Rebecca was AMAZING. VERY RESPONISIBLE and LOVING to our two elderly furry family members while she took care of them over a 5 day period. Our only option was a 5 STAR RATING however she is in an ELITE GROUP that is WAY ABOVE the 5 star rating scale.

About: I’ve owned and have taken care of different breeds of dogs. My family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed and care for their animals. I have a full time job but I am available after work, overnight and on weekends to walk, feed, play and care for your animals. I take the dogs out for walks and potty breaks before work, crate them if needed, and walks and potty breaks after work and before bed.

Thank you as always Taylor for taking such great care of our 2 Goldens while we were away for a couple of days. They always seem happy and relaxed when you are with them. You give us peace of mind so we can enjoy time away without having to worry about our girls! :)

We had to go out of town - leaving our 5 pets one of whom was a new adoptee with some trust issues and one of whom needed some medication and tlc. Sherri came over to meet us all and I was quickly assured that the pets would all be in great hands with her. I was able to enjoy my trip without worrying about our cats and dogs. The animals all warmed up to her quickly and she sent me lots of photos and reached out with any questions. We came home to happy pets and a well cared for house. I highly recommend her!

It was our first time having an inhouse pet sitter and Brien was wonderful. He was willing to meet with us a couple of weeks before hand which reassured us about having a stranger in our house. When a last minute health issue threw our plans up in the air, he was very empathetic and willing to work with us. We did get away as planned and Brien sent us a daily update and photos. Our dog is 15 years old, so a health issue can always develop unexpectedly, but Brien was confident he could hand anything that comes along. Highly recommend.
