1. Ioana C.
“Ioana did a fantastic job on very short notice. Our dogs are not all that easy to take care of as we have a new addition to the house and a very old addition to the house. She was great with all of them and we were able to move our children into college without worry about our fur babies.”
2. Erica L.
“We were on vacation for a week and Erica was wonderful as always with our German shepherd. She truly cares about the family, home & pet she is caring for and we appreciate all that she does to help us! She’s always our first pick & we highly recommend her to everyone!”
3. Morgan S.
“Morgan did an excellent job taking care of our house and our two doggies while we were away. We loved the photos and appreciated her flexibility when our travel plans changed. We highly recommend Morgan and would love to have her back in the future.”

“Emma took great care of our cat throughout the week. She kept us up to date and we felt great knowing our cat was in capable hands during the week.”
5. Katlyn C.
“What an amazing experience! I could not recommend Katlyn enough. I was out of town for 8 days, I have two dogs and Katlyn went above and beyond. Not only following the norms my pups go through, but also being extremely responsible and treating my home like her own! If you’re in need of someone to watch your pets/home, I would HIGHLY recommend using Katlyn.”

8. Emily G.
“Emily is amazing and so sweet! This was our first time using Rover and I was so nervous—we always get nervous leaving our babies, but Emily made this trip less stressful for us. I would definitely book with her again! Our dogs were well taken care of, as well as our home! She followed all instructions to a tee and even went above and beyond! We also appreciated her sending lots of updates, photos, & videos!”

“Corrine was amazing with both of my kitties! She was able to come over before I left to meet both of them and get a feel for where things were in my home. She sent me updates with pictures every day which was very reassuring that my kitties were in great hands! I highly recommend Corrine and will definitely be asking her to pet sit again in the future! ❤️”

“Marisa was absolutely fantastic with our senior dog! She sent many updates throughout her stay with pictures and was always friendly and responsive. Our dog had a great time with her, and we were able to enjoy our trip knowing our pet and home were in great hands.”
17. Rebecca A.
“Rebecca did an amazing job with our very reactive pup! Our dog is very sweet with humans but is very reactive towards other dogs, making walking her understandably challenging. Rebecca watched her for a week and had no issues during this time. Would definitely recommend!”
18. Samantha W.
“Sam house sat for us while we were out of town for a stretch and took great care of our dogs. She was attentive to their needs, wasn’t afraid to ask questions and texted with updates. She left our house immaculate and I felt like our dogs were in good hands while we were gone. Highly recommend Sam for anyone looking for a sitter.”
19. Elyza P.
“Elyza was fantastic with my dog Cholula while I was out of town! She was communicative, friendly and left my apartment in great condition while watching Cholula. She was transparent during our scheduling and took note of all of Cholula’s quirks to ensure I felt as comfortable as possible while I was out of town. I couldn’t recommend her enough if you’re looking to have someone watch your pet while away!”
20. Lisa W.
“Lisa put both myself and my Zuri at ease right away. She provided daily updates, administered meds as instructed and left my home as I had left it for her. I'll be looking her up for my next trip, for sure.”
