1. Regan M.

“Regan was amazing! She made it through really rough weather to take care of my pup while I was away. Communication was smooth and Dexter seemed to really enjoy spending time with her!”




2. Devin U.

“Devin went totally above and beyond in caring for my cat. He even stopped by early on my day home, vacuumed the carpet and cleaned my cat's dishes-which is awesome because as Devin can now attest, Nico is a messy eater! I recommend him completely and hope he's available for taking care of Nico the next time I travel.”


3. Morgan M.

“I definitely recommend Morgan to any pet parent in need of reliable care with great communication. Morgan was more than happy to stop back in to double check something with our kitties, and we couldn’t be more thankful!”


4. Carol N.


“Carol was wonderful!! Fantastic and patient with our kitties and went the extra mile to take care of our home. Would definitely recommend and will book again in the future. Thank you Carol!!”


5. Lindy "Sid" J.

“Sid did great dropping in on my 4 month old puppy. I was worried on leaving him for a long work day but Sid stopped in twice and got him out to potty and fed him. I came home to a accident free house and a very happy puppy. I will defintely use Sid again to watch my pup. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


6. Marlee B.

“Marlee was amazing with my cat and super communicative! Loved having her take care of Tater and will definitely be working with Marlee again!”


7. Tony S.

“Tony is reliable, follows all directions and provides excellent care. My cats love him. He also sends thorough notes so we know exactly what is going on. I would highly recommend him for drop in cat care.”


8. Linnea M.

“Linnea is the real deal! She did drop in visits for our almost two year old pittie Lucy and I could not have asked for a more capable and professional person for the job. An added bonus is that she loves to teach dogs new commands in addition to caring for them and showing them love. Linnea was spectacular and a high recommend!”


9. Jennifer S.

“Jennifer did an outstanding job! I had a very last minute request and she was there within the hour. She listened to all of my dogs’ specifications on potty time, eating and even shower them the same love and affection that I would myself. I know this because she updated me many times on the stay (I was anxious about leaving them so long). She posted the cutest photos of them enjoying the sun on the deck, but asked if it was allowed prior to letting them out. It was apparent that their safety was important to her. She washed their food bowls when they finished eating and left them neatly on the counter. Jennifer wrote me a note in response to the one I left her with a detailed overview of her time at my house. I would 200% recommend her to anyone and everyone that needs the services of Rover. If I could give her 10 stars I would. Outstanding!”


10. Rachel M.

“Rachel was very communicative and sent us lots of nice pics of our cat on her visits! She helped us out last minute and we couldn’t have been happier having her check on our cat while we were away.”


11. Katie K.


“Katie has taken care of my dog and cat for a long time now. She’s trustworthy, responsible, communicative, and reliable. So thankful we have her!”


12. Tessa B.
“Tessa is an upstanding individual with a high standard of care for animals. She has taken care of my personal pet in the past, and I would trust her to do it again. She provided my pet with all that she needed, and followed any instructions I gave her. I find Tessa very responsible and reliable as both a pet-sitter and peer.”




13. Amy E.



“Amy is such a great sitter. She cares about our sweet older dog - and it shows! Barkley is well cared for when she is helping us. Will definitely use her again!!”




14. Dmitra G.

“When we moved into a new house a little further from work we weren't able to get home during the day to give the dogs a break. Finding Dmitra was the best thing that could have happened! She comes every day to let the dogs out and/or take them for a walk. It gives us peace of mind knowing that they are being checked in on and it gives our dogs the opportunity to get some energy out. Dmitra is reliable, friendly and she takes great care of our dogs. Highly recommend.”


15. Marcela D.

“Marcela and her husband took wonderful care of our kitty while we traveled for six days over the holidays. We especially appreciated the clear communication. We are very grateful and we will definitely hire them again!”


16. Sabrina C.

“Sabrina was awesome! I asked Sabrina to take care of my dogs when I go to work. She always takes good care of them. She walks 2-3 times a day, and makes such fun treat puzzle and yogurt treats! She also grooms my dogs very well! My dogs were so entertained.”


17. Aimee M.

“Aimee was so great with Bean she was sure to send me updates with the cutest pictures and a summary of how the visit went. She was very attentive and caring for bean. You can tell she really loves animals and treats your pets as if they are her own. I will definitely be booking with her again.”


18. Rachel S.

“Rachel took wonderful care of our dog! She was timely, provided many pictures, and extremely professional. Our pup loved her and we highly recommend Rachel!!”


19. Edan L.


“Our kitty put his PAWS on her for scritches. And she followed his medical requirements with his food perfectly, and was just in general a very polite and friendly person to interact with and entrust our little baby guy to. What more could you want?”

“Giulia is very professional and always leaves us with a nice check-in after each drop in. She gives our pets attention and affection beyond just the normal care and we really appreciate that.”
