“Kenya was great! She kept us informed and sent us lots of photos! The pups seemed like they had a good time and well taken care of! Would for sure have Kenya take care of our pups again!”
“Hailey took the best care of my senior dog. She watched Fiona for the weekend in my home. I was so nervous leaving her but she sent so many photos with little updates about what they were up to and how everything was going. Everything in the house was perfect when we got home and Fiona was so happy. Hailey is a true animal lover, compassionate, detail oriented and a great communicator. Your sweet little furry family member is in great hands with Hailey.”

“Devona was amazing! She took such good care of our giant baby (even when our dog wouldn't come in at first due to "stranger danger" ?). She was very communicative and sent multiple pictures. Our home was well cared for and she left it clean and tidy. We will absolutely use her again.”

“Alyssa did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of my three dogs while I was away. Each of them has their own unique needs — different medications, diets, and routines — and she managed everything perfectly without any issues. It was clear from the moment I returned that they were happy, healthy, and well cared for. My house was just as clean and tidy as when I left, which really shows how responsible and respectful she is. Most importantly, my dogs absolutely loved her — they were calm, content, and clearly bonded with her. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. I would definitely hire Alyssa again the next time I travel and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”

“Sarah was great with her communication with us. Always prompt with responses and kept us up to date with lots of pictures. We appreciate her enthusiasm. She followed feeding instructions for Ellie and Theo carefully. We came home to a well ordered house and dogs that were happy and healthy. :)”

“Nick was so amazing. Our dogs were well looked after, our home well taken care of, and we loved his updates. Our dogs can’t wait to have him stay again!”

“Colleen is amazing! Not only did she take care of our dogs for two weeks while we were out of the country, she kept our house plants watered, and the house was nice and clean when we got back! We would love to have her take care of our two pups when we travel again! Thank you so much Colleen!”

“I was a initially hesitant about a higher rate sitter, but Susan had the extra background check, had reviews from multiple clients, and took her own time for a meet and greet before we booked so we could get to know her and her passion for caring for others. She took great care of my bulldog while I took a nearby staycation. The peace of mind proved worthwhile. We have already booked her for another longer stay and are thankful Rover connected us!”

“Elizabeth stayed at our home and watched our two dogs, a hound and boxer/bulldog mix for 4 days and did a great job. She communicated well and sent photos each day. She was very considerate and respective of our home and left it spotless - even swept, mopped and changed the bed she slept in. I highly recommend Elizabeth as a pet sitter.”


“Taylor was wonderful with my pups. Sending me updates & pictures. She was so flexible with us & our plans. My pups loved her & her cuddles. My little pup is scared of thunder and she comforted him and snuggled him to help him through the brief storm. I can’t say enough good things about her. My grand pup was with us this time and he has anxiety issues and she was able to keep him calm & happy . Thank You Taylor for such a great experience.”

“Marie is the BEST! I am so thankful that I left my sweet, sometimes challenging, senior dog with Marie during my trip to Europe. Marie is confident with all kinds of medications and based on all of the photos she sent, my dog enjoyed was beyond loved and happy the whole time. Traveling with the comfort, knowing that my pup was taken care of meant everything to me. Thank you, Marie!!”

“Danny did an amazing job watching our crew. We have three dogs, one being a puppy, and he had no problem dealing with our chaotic house. He even sent daily pictures so we could see everyone while we were gone. We will definitely be using him again.”

“Alison was more than wonderful with my dog, Chaka. She sent me multiple pictures daily and kept me in the loop with how he was doing. I would recommend her to anyone! You can tell she truly has a love for animals and I didn’t feel like I had to worry when I left town. Will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“Kris took exceptional care of my dog and allowed me to enjoy being out of town without worrying about his well being. She provided plenty of pics and videos and I know he was thrilled to have her there to play with.”
