1. Julianne E.

“Julianne took care of my young and energetic, but shy husky-shepherd mix. I was nervous leaving Gia for the first time but she warmed up very quickly and ended up having a blast with Julianne over the weekend. Julianne kept in touch throughout her stay and sent me several pictures. I wasn’t worried for a second knowing she was happy, comfortable and well taken care of. When I returned, the house was exactly as I’d left it. I am already booking a second sitting with Julianne for my upcoming vacation in April! Thank you!!”


2. Anna F.

“Anna was very communicative before and during our booking. She sent both photos and videos, which were very much appreciated. We had an issue with our house while Anna was dropping in, and she was very helpful while we were stressing out.”


3. Terry S.


“Terri is fabulous! She is professional and nurturing. Both my cat and dog warmed up to her immediately. I never worry about my pets or my home when Terri is pet sitting. I highly recommend her!”


4. Olivia S.
“Liv is hands down the best dog sitter I’ve ever had! She’s not only incredibly responsible and trustworthy, but she also has a natural way with dogs that puts both pets and owners at ease. Every time she watches my pup, I know he’s in the best hands—he’s always happy, well-cared for, and even better behaved when I come back! Liv goes above and beyond, whether it’s sending me updates, taking long walks, or just giving extra belly rubs. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, Liv is the one!”


5. Zoe M.

“I highly recommend Zoe! She did an excellent job taking care of my pet. She was responsible, attentive, and very caring. I truly appreciate her dedication and would definitely trust her again.”


6. Emily D.

“Emily did a great job taking care of our 5 pets! They require some specialized care and she had no trouble doing everything we asked of her! She was also just super nice, left the house clean, and sent us lots of pictures and updates while we were away. We would definitely hire her again!”




7. Tara O.

“My wife and I were recently in a bind. We had booked travel to Italy, with the plan of having our parents house-sit for us while we were gone. Those plans fell through, and we first considered a kennel for our dog Brutus, and our two cats. The problem with that was firstly, it was super expensive and secondly we were going to be gone for nearly three weeks and didn't like the idea of Brutus being in a cage for so long. We stumbled upon Rover.com where we were lucky enough to find Tara. Although we were a little wary of someone we didn't know watching our beloved pets and watching our home, the first meeting with Tara really put us at ease. She explained her schedule, told us of her experience and even made recommendations on what to leave in case of emergencies. While we were out of the country Tara kept us in the loop of everything that was going on, even when our cat scratched the dog on the nose (aww.). She sent pictures regularly and was wonderful through the whole process. All of that and her prices were very reasonable. I highly recommend Tara to anyone looking for a pet-sitter or house-sitter and will certainly use her the next time I go out of town!”


8. Nicholas J.

“Nicholas was the best!!! He checked in couple times a day with photos over a very long and hot weekend. It was obvious from the pictures that our dog was very happy. We felt that she and home were in great hands. Thanks again Nicholas!”




9. Sue A.
“Sue took great care of my senior dog (April) and senior cat (Cleo). She gave April a special treat by giving her a ride in her convertible (yes, she confirmed that a ride was ok), and then let her run around her fenced yard. She sent lots of pictures and was very responsive while I was away. I know that April & Cleo look forward to Sue’s next visit. ?”


10. Kyle T.
“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my dog than Kyle! He was responsible, attentive, and truly went above and beyond to ensure my pup was happy and well cared for. From regular walks and playtime to sending me updates, I always felt at ease knowing my dog was in great hands. When I returned, my dog was happy, healthy, and clearly well taken care of. I highly recommend Kyle to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”


11. Izabel & Zachary G.

“They stayed and played with Luna plenty of time each day, sent us pictures and checked in each visit. They bought treats for her for when we got back and just did a great job. They really cared about Luna and enjoyed spending time with her. I would highly recommend and use their services again!”


12. Olivia F.

“Olivia came to watch our dog on super short notice after our other sitter bailed. She was great and very communicative. Definitely recommend her!!!”


13. Tabitha F.

“I really am so thankful I found Tabitha. This is the second house stay with Scar while I was on vacation. Having a high energy dog, she goes above and beyond to make sure he gets the exercise he needs. All his medications are given to him & taken care - it’s such a piece of mind. If you’re looking for a sitter, I’d highly recommended!”


14. Andrea C.

“Andrea has always loved dogs and has had them in her home for many years. She has 2 beautiful American Eskimo dogs whom she adores and takes very good care of. I know that she would treat other people's dogs with the same loving care!”




15. China P.

“China took great care of my dog! They went on many walks and China sent me lots of great photos while I was away. Will definitely be asking her to watch Juniper again!”




16. Anna M.

“Anna is a reliable pet sitter. All three of our furry family members are relaxed and happy when we return, especially our golden retriever who enjoys her walks and outings with Anna.”


17. Allison H.

“Allison was punctual, responsive, accommodating and most importantly, she took the best care of my two pups while I was away. Allison sent photos each day and kept me updated as needed. I hope Allison is available the next time I have to leave my pups while I'm away.”


18. Heidii R.
“I would 100% recommend Heidii to care for your fur baby! She took care of our dog Poppy for a little over a week while our family was away and was amazing. Heidii is caring, attentive, responsible and fun and will take care of and love your pet as if they are one of her own! She has many many years experience raising her own fur babies from puppies well into their senior years. She’s the best!”


19. Kaitlin R.

“Kaitlin is very reliable and flexible. She takes great care of our two cats and golden retriever. I will definitely book her again next time we need help.”


20. Michaela W.
About: I have always had pets, but at this point in time, we are unable to have any pets of our own. Because of that, we would love to take care of yours when needed! I have experience with cats, dogs, and turtles - both in my own home and at others' homes. I have a young son (2.5 year old) who adores pets of all shapes and sizes, as well as a baby girl (10 months). I have a part time job, but I am home pretty much 24/7. I am able to accommodate your pet's needs when it comes to outside time (walks, playing, etc.), feeding schedule, and quality time. Pets in our home are a part of our family - they will be the center of our attention! We do not have a fenced in yard, so they would need to be leashed for bathroom breaks. There are several nearby parks we would love to take them to stretch their legs.
