“Khaytlen was such a great sitter for us! We had a last minute trip and she came to meet the dogs not once, but TWICE to make sure everything was in order (one of our dogs was recovering from spay surgery and needed more specific care). She sent frequent updates to make sure we knew our babies were being well taken care of! Will definitely be rebooking her in the future!”
“Silvia is amazing in every way! This is our second time working with her and are so grateful to have met her! I leave my pets and know they are being spoiled beyond belief!”
“Natalie did an amazing job taking care of our home and fur babies while we were away for the weekend. She gave plenty of attention to Luna, followed her schedule for feeding/potty time to mainain her usual routine. Natalie cleaned and tidied up the place before she left. Natalie is so awesome at communicating and one of my best sitters overall. I already booked a future housesitting for her to have more fun times with our sweet Luna (and Recon, if he decides to say hi).”
“Brittany cared for my dog Poppy for 5 days and 4 nights. Nothing exciting happened while she was at my place, which is exactly how I wanted it. She spent a good amount of time with the dog (Poppy needs a high level of person interaction) and took great care of my place. Overall, highly recommended as a trustworthy person to watch your most prized possession(s).”
“Beth was wonderful with Mowgli and Miles our 2 indoor cats! It was so nice to be able to have them in their own environment! Beth took great care of them and we are extremely grateful to have found her! We will definitely asked her to watch them again! 5 stars!”
“Fawn was amazing. I can’t recommend her enough. We have a dog with behavioral issues that also takes medication everyday, she handled it so well. We were gone for over a week and not once did I feel uncomfortable, nervous or anxious. We will definitely be booking with Fawn again. THE BEST!”
“I don’t know if you’re able to review a person more than once. But I had Andrhu coming for drop in visits during my long work hours because he lives just a few blocks away. I noticed my cat who is 15 took to him right away and he paid attention to my very *particular* requests about her care. Not only did I have a significant increase in my cats level of calmness - but literally at the LAST minute I saw that the sitter I use when I’m out of town had left my cat alone for almost 24 hours. Then pushed he out of bed when the cat tried to ask for minimal attention. To say I was crushed was an understatement. I was in complete tears. I have a lot going on and am kind of a single pet parent until my husband can join me in the USA. Andrhu AGAIN was a god send. One one days notice I let the other sitter go home for personal reasons and Andrhu agreed to stay - he was with her most all day every day. I came home today, my cat happy, playing with a ball at 15 years old. And now I am comfortable purchasing a kitten to make her (and I) even happier. Knowing I have Andrhu close by - he’s SO flexible. He’s honest and communicates expectations clearly which I appreciate and respect. The amount of guilt I carry about leaving her is at a zero. Down from about 200 on my last vacation. And now with our new addition coming - I consider Andrhu to be part of my cat tribe to make sure they’re all ok. I don’t want him to get completely booked (selfishly). But this is the relationship I needed for my sweet girl until my husband is allowed to live here - and for every vacation after. I highly recommend treating him with utmost respect. I have a guest set of linens, towels and hope Andrhu will help himself to anything food or drink in my home. At this point my home is him home and even if we haven’t met he is cat-family. Hire him whenever you can. The compassion he shows to even old pets it unmatched. I’m almost crying tears of joy from having my anxiety so much reduced in this difficult time in my life.”
“I could not recommend Mr.Anthony enough! He stayed with our dog for a week and was so gentle in his approach to our stand offish dog. He really took his time and allowed bob to warm up to him, kept him comfortable and engaged and provided much needed relief to the stress of leaving your dog behind. 100/10!”
“Veronica did an amazing job caring for our home and fur babies! She left the home just as we left! She took Mamas on so many park adventures! We also received many updates and super cute photos. Definitely pleased and would love to book again! Thank you sooooo much ????”
“Alexandria was great! She was reliable and did everything I asked of her. She was able to accommodate my last minute request and I would book her again. My only criticism would be that I had to ask for more updates. I would still get them, just not as much if I didn’t ask. I really appreciated her being able to watch my pups though! My dog is going through some bad anxiety and while he is being medicated, she had to endure his barking as we figured out his dosage.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have grown up with dogs and cats, I also have experience with other animals as well ( such as reptiles and fish, larger animals). I’ve taken care of dogs that range from reactivity to no problems at all, so I guarantee you even in an iffy situation that your animal will remain safe and will be taken care of accordingly to set instructions and nothing less I currently have a pretty open schedule and lots of free time, taking care of pets on limited to open time frame shouldn’t be an issue for me. I often leave to run small errands, but im never gone for long periods of time Animals are not only a life but your best friend, in my care I can assure you that your pets needs will be met to the fullest extent.
“I booked Kari to watch my two dogs at my home for a week while I was on vacation. That week turned out to be the big snowstorm of 2019! She came prepared and stayed at the house even though she was unsure how long she would be snowed in in an unfamiliar house. She kept in contact with me throughout the week with updates and pictures of the dogs. My dogs absolutely loved her! I could tell because they barely acknowledged me when I got home. Haha. She took terrific care of the house as well. Everything was clean and neat. I cannot express how happy I am with Kari’s service. I will be booking with her for all my future vacations. Thank you Kari!”
“My babies were cared for and piper was very communicative during the stay. Just some little details that need to be communicated- to please clean up after using the kitchen and also fresh water in the cat bowl as well as dog bowl. Thanks Piper.”
“Harley took amazing care of our girls and the house. She kept in contact daily with messages, pictures, and videos. She was always fast to respond to messages. We will definitely be asking her to sit again. Thank you Harley!”
“Kim was so great with our pup and we’re so glad to have found her! She left our home spotless and was prompt about providing updates while we were away. She will be our new go-to sitter!”
“Second time having Mackenzie stay with my dog. She is amazing. Really great with communication and sending updates. Came home to a clean house :) will definitely have her back!”
“Yuri was amazing. She was so thoughtful in her questions about Finn, his preferences, and needs. She is a fantastic communicator and sent daily updates and photos. Finn was loved and cared for so well while we were gone and it put my mind at ease knowing she was with him. We will most definitely use her services again. Thank you, Yuri!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better pet-sitting experience! Lauren went above and beyond to take care of our beloved dog Juno and cat Ella. She provided our pets with all the love, attention, and care they needed while we were away. Communication was exceptional; we received regular updates and photos of our furry family members, which gave us peace of mind. Lauren made sure Juno got plenty of exercise and playtime, and Ella was spoiled with all the affection a cat could desire. Our home was kept in immaculate condition, and we could tell that Lauren treated it as if it were their own. We returned to happy, healthy, and content pets. Thank you for your outstanding care and for making our time away worry-free. We will definitely book with you again!”

Natalie is incredible. She is an absolute sweetheart and went above and beyond taking care of our three dogs and lizard. My dogs fell in love with her. She even got my shy girl to open up to her. It made being away from them so much easier knowing they were in such loving hands. She provided plenty of photos and updates, and it was nice coming home to happy babes and a clean house. I highly recommend her.🩷
Victoria was attentive, asked questions about care of our two dogs, took detailed notes to be sure she had the information on hand to care for and handle any issues that might come up while sitting with our dogs. She kept a clean house and documented the each day, (care, walks, meals, and activities), with some pictures and notes to keep us informed. We will call on her again for our dog sitting needs.
Breanne was amazing! She provided lots of updates and it was her knowledge of handling dogs with anxiety that led me to choose her. I just moved to the area and my dog is having some issues being left alone. She gave him the comfort he needed during this transition period and I will be booking her again :)
Constanza was so caring and our kitties were well cared for while we were gone for 10 days. She kept me updated with cute photos and videos. I can see how relaxed and happy my kitties are under her care in those videos and photos. They snuggled with her daily and got all the cuddles they wanted. She even took care of stray cats I was feeding outside to make sure they had food too. She is so kind and caring, I had a relaxed vacation all thanks to her! When I came back, my kitties did not care about me much because they had a really good time with Constanza. I definitely recommend her to anyone who wants their fur baby well cared for while they are gone. She even left my house cleaner than I left her. I will book with her again for all future trips!
Marley was absolutely amazing! She stayed at my house to watch my two dogs and cat, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. My pets were so comfortable and well loved while I was away, and I came home to a spotless house. Marley kept me updated with messages and check-ins, which gave me such peace of mind. It’s clear she truly cares about animals and treats them like their own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter—I’ll definitely be booking with her again!
Yuri was amazing. She was so thoughtful in her questions about Finn, his preferences, and needs. She is a fantastic communicator and sent daily updates and photos. Finn was loved and cared for so well while we were gone and it put my mind at ease knowing she was with him. We will most definitely use her services again. Thank you, Yuri!
Dr. Ben was an amazing pet and house sitter for our 3 large dogs and 1 cat while we were out of town for 7 days. It can be nerve wracking not being the one who is caring for my pets, but Ben had excellent communication and put my mind at ease. He went above and beyond by replacing our dogs’ blanket when they tore up their old one. I would hands down recommend and will asking him to provide his services again in the future.
Summer is one of the best Rover sitters we've ever had. Our puppies absolutely loved her from the moment. She first came to meet them. She kept our house clean while she stayed there so when we returned, it was exactly the way we left it. Our dogs went out back and played and did everything they normally do while we're here. You can tell she loves dogs and they love her. She sent us lots of pictures of them in and out of the house, which is always good because we do love to see our furry family when we're gone. The hardest part of going anywhere is having to leave our little furry behind. We will definitely reach out to Summer next time we are going anywhere. We highly recommend Summer!
Cole was amazing with our four month old pup. We had an event and our sitter cancelled last minute, and Cole was so responsive and made everything so easy. It was our first time leaving our pup and Cole made us totally comfortable and our pup had so much fun. Highly recommend Cole and will absolutely hire again.
Alex took care of our two kitties in our home and I would recommend Alex to everyone! Alex was super attentive, provided daily updates with pictures and made sure our cats with comfortable which put me at ease. It was our first time leaving our two cats and finding Alex was such a relief! Our house was in better shape than when we left! We will definitely be using Alex again!
