“Abby is a superior dog sitter. I have 4 special needs yorkies & Havanese and Abby had to medicate, feed special food and provide lots of attention even carrying a dog downstairs to go to the bathroom. Abby is proactive, attentive & cleans everything so effectively!! Highly recommend!”
“Leann was a wonderful caretaker for my pup! She took excellent care, helped him take his medication, and made sure he got plenty of outside time. We got daily pictures to help put us at ease. She even gave love to our cat and brought in our packages without being asked! Highly recommend!”
“Loana is amazing! She was super good to my boys. My old boy Jackson was detioriaring in health, and she had no problem being willing to help with his meds, carrying up and down my stairs and taking care of him. She was an absolute saint!”
“We are so relieved to have found JoVonna. She is officially a member of our family now. Our 4 cats do not socialize with other family members but they took to JoVonna immediately. She administered medicine, kept food and clean water available, and the cats said I have to step up my litter boxes duties to match her. JoVonna exceeded all expectations on timeliness and communication. So grateful and will book her for all future trips.”
“Rachel was absolutely wonderful with my 3 month old puppy, Olive! She came to our home twice on Tuesday for an hour long visit each time, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Rachel was incredibly attentive—she took Olive outside, spent lots of time playing with her, and even worked on teaching her new commands. It was clear that Rachel truly loves animals and took amazing care of my sweet girl. Olive had a great time and got both the exercise and mental stimulation she needed. I would absolutely recommend Rachel to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and great with dogs!”
“Super responsive, follows all instructions, does meet and greets, addresses any concerns and tailors care to dog’s needs. Super flexible as well. Thank you for taking care of Doug!”
“I can't reccomend Taylor enough! She took such good care of my cats and lizard while we were on vacation for a week. We have a very shy and standoffish cat and it was clear to me that Taylor made them all feel so safe and comfortable based on how willing the cats were to let her snap pics of them every day - shes a great photographer too! Great communication, punctual, flexible (thank you again for feeding and keeping an eye on our bearded dragon!), and just all around a wonderful sitter who we will absolutely be booking with again. I would trust her in my home and with my pets any day. Thank you Taylor!”
“Maggie was excellent with my cat who can be a bit shy with new people. Quick, clear communication. Will definitely have Maggie care for my girl again! :)”
“Amazing experience as always! My dogs really love Dylan and I can tell he really loves them too. They aren’t the easiest to take care of being both big dogs and high energy but he is always up for the task. Wouldn’t trust my dogs with anyone else, he really puts in the work and dedication. Thanks Dylan!”
“Thea did an amazing job with my cats (and tortoise!) while I was away for the holiday and was so communicative and sent the best pictures of all of them! My one cat has to get medication as well and hides a lot so she did so well with taking care of her special needs. It meant so much to me knowing they were in such good hands!”
“Erica did great checking on my kitties while I’m out of town. This was my first time using rover so I was a little nervous but she uploaded pictures and made my kitties feel comfortable. Will definitely use her again!”
“Allie treats your pet like her own. Cute photos and little updates make you feel like you have a connection with them even if you’re on the other side of the planet. Look forward to the updates everyday I’m traveling.”
“Mariya was great! She was communicative and sent pictures throughout her visit with my dog. She also asked additional questions to make sure all needs were met. Thanks so much Mariya!”
“Heather showed up ready to work with our sweet cats. She went above and beyond and eased my mind by asking good questions that I hadn’t even thought of! She sent photos and reassured us our little fella took his medication. We’re very grateful for your help, Heather, especially on such short notice. Thank you! Tabitha and Andrew”
“Isabel is kind, smart, and a true animal lover. She took excellent care of my cat, who requires both force-feeding and oral medication. She was always punctual, sent plenty of pictures and videos, and consistently went above and beyond. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in her care. I will definitely book her again!”

Ioana not only accepted my booking very last minute, but took the BEST care of my babies! Some scheduling issues with evening care resulted in lack of litter clean up, which Ioana promptly addressed and took care of without being a part of original care plan. Great communication, highly attentive, would recommend to anyone!!
Heather is so sweet! She offered a repeat meet and greet when we got our second pup so he could get to know her as well. She was also able to help with drop ins last minute this visit which was so appreciated. She is thorough, asks great questions to ensure good care, and sends photos with her visits! Highly recommend :)
Elizabeth is amazing! She took the best care of my two little kitties, Louie & Quiggy 🐱 She indulged all of their favorite things…playing in the backyard, treats on treats, and all the pets. She was very communicative and sent me so many pictures. I loved all the updates. They made me feel like my kitties were in good hands while I was away. I cannot recommend her enough.
Olivia is super cool and will be our go-to for future dog sitting. She did a great job at documenting her time spent with our dog. The documentation enhanced the quality of our vacation because we knew our dog was being taken care of, and we didn’t have to worry at all. 10/10 😎
Rachel has watched my active, social cat twice now. I think both bookings were rather last minute and I appreciate how flexible and communicative she is. But more importantly, my cat loves her! He is more relaxed and less anxious when I return than when I've have other sitters watch him in the past. Highly reccommend!
Savannah took excellent care of my dogs! Both are rescues and one has some behavioral issues due to his past; Savannah was great and made a lot of progress with him in only two short visits. My dogs are not the most trusting and both were friendly and at ease with her right away.I would highly recommend her!
Mackenzie was great at communicating with me about my cat and leaving notes on his check-in card about what they did that day. She was very nice and she scooped his litter and everything for me as well. I would definitely use her again and would recommend her to any one!
