1. Emily G.

“Emily took great care of my fur babies! I received daily updates and pictures throughout the day. I will be definitely booking with her again.”


2. Clover M.

“Clover continues to be reliable and an absolute gem. I have utilized her services for a few months now and she is spot on. I highly highly recommend her.”


3. Susan W.

“Susan was great! She stayed at our house for us and took care of our two dogs. Super easy to communicate to while we were on our break. She even sent pictures of our dogs to show how they were doing too, which was nice. We would use Susan again if we were to take him to another trip. Do not hesitate to book Susan to watch your pets!”


4. Dylan C.

“We highly recommend Dylan’s services, especially if you have pets that need special attention and/or you require house-sitting services. Dylan went above and beyond to care for our dogs and our home! Because one of our dogs—a deaf, senior, Boston Terrier w/multiple health issues—is particularly high maintenance and we were to depart quite early in the morning, Dylan was amenable to coming to our home in advance for a meet and greet and to get up to speed w/atypical feeding and fairly extensive medication, our household needs, etc. We really appreciated his willingness on that count! During our 5 day trip, Dylan remained very attentive to our dogs and their needs and sent many photos to document. He was quick to respond when we checked in but did not hesitate to also let us know if he observed anything out of the ordinary. We received loads of pictures each day to let us know all was well. Since Dylan’s primary work is remote, he was able to be onsite with our dogs and our home not only overnight but much of each day as well. Between multiple walks each day, Dylan retrieved packages and mail, watered outdoor plants and more. Then Dylan again went above and beyond for our return. Our quite late return flight meant we didn’t return home until midnight. Dylan was more than accommodating. Upon our return we found happy, well-cared for dogs and our home in as good or better condition than when we left.”




5. Nita R.

“Nita was a wonderful sitter for our 2 young and active corgis! She stayed in our home over the weekend to take care of our pups. She was very clean and left the house better than when she came! We will 100% use her as a sitter again!”


6. whitney p.

“What a wonderful person! First time users of rover and first time needing a doggy sitter overnight. Whitney was so open and gentle. She had a phone call with us first and then a meet/greet with our fur babies. She really took note of what our dogs ate and how. She was so prompt and took to our dogs so well. She was respectful of our home and our dogs. She communicated with us the day of and the day we came back and in between. Absolutely adored her we will book with her again for sure. A MILLION THANKS WHITNEY 🤩.”


7. Dax M.

“Dax was great. You can obviously tell he loves dogs. Very communicative, detail oriented, and was a delightful experience. I recommend Dax. 10/10.”


8. Desmond B.

“Fast communicator, did a great job watching my dog and home overnight. Trustworthy and good, gentle authority with historically aggressive dogs.”


9. Miriam V.

“I wish I could keep Miriam a secret but must share that she was great! We have two senior dogs, the ‘more senior’ of whom is in his waning year. He has several health issues, takes more than a few meds and he has a special diet, so instructions get fairly detailed. Miriam, however, took it all in stride when she brought her calm demeanor and her extensive experience with pets of all ages and stages to house sit our guys. Miriam’s communication and great questions during our meet and greet prior to her stay put us right at ease and our dogs loved her. Communication (with photos) was great throughout. Our most senior dog’s needs require only housesitting and we have already rebooked with Miriam. As much as I dread when he is no longer with us, I am confident our ‘less senior’ boy will enjoy boarding with Miriam when that day comes. I highly recommend Miriam!”


10. Laura H.

“Laura was a wonderful dog/house sitter. Our minds were at ease with her watching our dogs for 3 nights/4 days. Highly recommend. She was great and treated our dogs with kindness and took care of all their needs. Laura is absolutely great!”


11. Mariah E.

About: Updated 01/26/2025 Hello pet parents, a little about myself and home: I am a stay at home mother of a 5 year old. Our house sits on a larger corner lot with a large fenced backyard with plenty of room for dogs with a need to stretch their legs. The majority of the time we are home to care for your pup/kittens needs and I am pretty open to whatever schedule you need provided I am given some notice if anything changes. I have 2 cats that will never meet your pet, we have the gated living room and the cats have their area blocked off. We have currently 1 unexpected addition to our family and that is a little Yorkie mixed pup that we found late last year in November. She is very sweet and is actually very good around cats as well. Pet sitting is my full time job which lets me spend as much time at home with your pup or cat throughout the time they stay. Our living room is kept mostly empty save for our sectional and it is gated off from the rest of the home, this is to help keep any messes to one room and helps keep any chewers from getting into something that could make them sick. The living room has a door to the backyard which is fully fenced and has enough room to zoom around and explore. There are no daily walks, but any toy you bring can be enjoyed outside with your pet for proper exercise and energy burning, this ensures no running into any outside dangers while in our care. Food is not provided, what they eat is what you provide for them normally every day. If you have canned food that will need to be covered please bring a cover for it to stay fresh for your pet when refrigerated.


12. Luisa R.

“Luisa was so great with Sparky! She has a calming nature and put Sparky at ease right away. Sparky got his exercise and dinner and his rest time. Will definitely call her again for evenings.”


13. Helena L.
“Helena was spectacular. I’m always hesitant using a first time sitter but she eased all nerves and let us thoroughly enjoy our vacation. She was punctual, communicative and attentive to all our and dogs needs/requests. We started with doing a meet&greet where my dog seemed quickly comfortable with her and her presence. She sent pictures, videos and updates throughout the day which were extremely appreciated. Oh it’s also embarrassing but must be mentioned she also left my apartment literally cleaner and more organized than we did. She’s an amazing sitter and will always be reaching out to her first when we need one. Couldn’t recommend more.”


14. Abbey B.

“Abbey did an awesome job! I felt very comfortable leaving my 2 dogs with her and she always kept me updated on them. We will be using her again in the future :)”


15. Rebecca R.
“Rebecca has been a pet caregiver for our family several times. We have two Shih Tzus that have needed care for up to two weeks at a time. She has fed them, played with them, cleaned after them, groomed them, and taken them for walks. We have been happy with her services. She is professional, reliable, and above all, caring. My family highly recommends her.”


16. Melissa M.


“Melissa was so great! She sent lots of photos daily and Shiner was very happy and relaxed while she stayed in our home. We will definitely use Melissa the next time we need to leave town. :)”


17. Aaron W.

“Aaron took great care of our dog and cat while we were out of town for five days. He gave us daily updates that included pictures and videos. We hope to have him pet sit again for us in the future.”


18. Jisela G.
“Jisela is responsible and has always been mature for her age. She cares for her 3 pets at home and gives them lots of quality time. She is quick thinking and a great problem solver.”


19. Audrey V.
“Audrey would be suited very well for a caregiving position. And the time I have known her, she has proven to be responsible, ordered, and very warm and pleasant when dealing with animals.”


20. Taisymone & Tevon R.

“Taisymone is the absolute B E S T!! She went above and beyond taking care of my two fur babies. She made sure they were eating, played fetch, sent pictures, & visited my two dogs more than 3 times! I had a panic leaving them because I have not left them for this long in about 4 years. I felt at ease on my vacation and will definitely be booking my next vacation knowing I can count on her!”
