5. Amanda S.
“Amanda has been watching my two dogs whenever we can't take them with us for a few years now. She has always stayed at our home with them. She takes wonderful care of them with the added benefit of being in the house while we are gone. She is reliable and trustworthy, which is why I had no problem asking her to dog & house sit for us. She cleans up after herself and leaves the house in order and the babies are healthy and happy when we return. I highly recommend Amanda to care for your pet(s) as well as your home.”
6. Mikella P.
“Mikella was amazing and exceeded expectations as always! She has a magic touch with our anxious dog and followed care instructions perfectly. We can’t recommend her enough and feel very safe leaving our fur babies in her care.”
7. Anne (Kaky) M.
“Kaky was wonderful and took great care of my dog (and turtles) while I was away for a week. He loved her and looked happy in all the pictures I received! Thank you again!! 💖”
8. Kathryn W.
“Kathryn is by far the best pet sitter we have ever hired! Her communication was fantastic and she asked very specific questions about our dog Ellie's routine, likes, dislikes and personality. Our dog is always anxious when we are away, but when we returned after the first trip Kathryn watched her, she was calm and happy for the first time ever. Kathryn followed all of our guidelines with the dog and the house and she regularly texted us with updates and pictures. We highly recommend Kathryn as a pet sitter!”
9. Heaven M.
“I moved here not knowing anyone and needed someone to come let my babies out 2 times a week. She came and met me and the pups; and we instantly loved her! She truly loves and cares so much for them just like her own! She is dependable and so sweet; and we will continue to rebook every week with her! Me and the pups are so thankful for her!”
10. Beth S.
“Beth took great care of my dog while I was on vacation. She was very prompt with her visits and gave me excellent updates daily. Very satisfied with her care for my pets and would certainly recommend her and will be using her again!”
11. Kimberly S.
“Kim was excellent! She dropped in on my dog twice a day for a week while I was out of town, once to walk him and once to feed him. Even though my dog can be a bit troublesome when it comes to meeting new people, he warmed up to Kim right away! She is kind, professional, and goes above + beyond. When my dog accidentally trapped himself in the laundry room and made a big mess in his panicked state, Kim immediately gave us an update and even cleaned up the mess. I highly recommend her services and will gladly use them again.”
12. Keagen B.
“Our FurBabies are just that, our Babies… when you ask are stranger to take care a piece of your heart you’re putting a lot of faith in them. Our sitter, Keagen B, did just that - handled us we sweet loving care. She took great care of our cats, above and beyond my expectations. I would book with Rover (& Keagen) again in a heartbeat! 💜☮️‼️”

14. Lindsay S.
“Excellent communication and conscientiousness, I felt relaxed all day knowing my big baby was taken care of. Would definitely book again and recommend Lindsay!”
15. Laurie P.
“Laurie did drop in visits with our two cats while we were away for 5 days. She was a good cat sitter for us. She communicated when the schedule needed to vary. I would have given 5 stars if she had gone the extra mile and either swept or vacuumed the cat litter that the cats tracked all over the laundry room floor and hallway. Other than that she was good. She did not remember where I showed her the plastics bags were so she ended bringing her own bags to put litter in, which was thoughtful.”
16. Elizabeth B.
“Elizabeth took care of my old girl Misty and I was very comfortable and grateful for knowing she was in good hands. She stayed in constant contact with me sending me messages and pictures from each visit. I'd definitely recommend her anytime. Thanks Elizabeth !!!”
17. Rebekah B.
“Rebekah has been dog sitting for us for the past 2.5 years. I'm able to enjoy my trips knowing that my babies are in great hands. She always updates me and sends me daily pics. I have her watch my cats, dogs, hamster and bearded dragon and she does great with all of them. My black cat does NOT like anyone but my husband and I, but she LOVES Bekah. Definitely recommend her as a sitter 10/10”
