1. Emma S.
“I am a veterinarian and have three dogs and a bearded dragon that all have medical issues that would be very overwhelming to most people. Emma was excellent with them and handled all their meds beautifully. She kept me updated with pictures and let me know how their days were going. She communicated so well and really put my helicopter mother heart at ease. I would absolutely recommend Emma to watch anyone’s babies, including elderly/special needs ones! She’s phenomenal and I wish I had found her sooner!!”
2. Danny G.
“He was great with our dog and cat and took very good care of them.”
3. Camila C.
“She was fantastic with my elderly babies! She loved on them, took them for walks, and went above and beyond with care for them. She was very observant and noticed one of mine shaking his ear a lot and reached out in concern. I ? percent would recommend her and I will for sure be using her again.”
4. Lawren W.
“Lawren is amazing! Our elderly pack loved spending time with Lawren and they don’t love everyone. ? She did a great job with updates and pictures and was kind and considerate while pet sitting. She’s responsible, communicative, and sweet!”
5. Patty H.
“Patty is exceptional. She is attentive and professional. We hired her to house sit and she kept the house the condition we had left it. We received daily updates with pictures and my very shy girl warmed up to her quickly. Would recommend without hesitation and will definitely rebook in the future!”
6. Aubri W.
“Aubri did a fantastic job sitting for us. I will definitely rebook her services in the future.”
7. Gianna V.
“Took very good care of both our dogs and our home. We will use Gianna again and recommend her to others!”

“Tenay was fantastic! She was available last minute and saved me from having to cancel my trip. The dogs were comfortable with her and she left my house in great shape. Thank you!”
9. Sydney O.
“Syndey was so great with our animals! I will definitely be contacting her for future sitting.”
10. Christopher O.
“Christopher did an amazing job watching my pup while I was gone. He communicated really well throughout the house sitting stay and spent tons of time loving on my pup. I could tell when I got home that she had all her needs met. She was relaxed and content. The house was also exactly how I left it. I will definitely use Christopher for future travel.”
11. Rose T.
“Rose is so lovely and kind. We said goodbye to one of our dogs and were worried about leaving her best friend home alone today. Rose took our request on short notice and helped sooth our grieving girl June. We were thankful for her help and care.”
12. Morgan M.
“Morgan accepted my request very last minute after my original sitter canceled last minute. She was on time and sent pictures of our babies!! Great experience.”
13. Jackie C.
“We had just moved to Baton Rouge after being in Nashville for many years and didn't know a soul. We are pretty particular about our pups and were nervous to have a stranger come in and take care of them and look after our home. After our initial meet and greet, I knew Jackie would become a regular sitter for us. She's kind, experienced and LOVES our dogs. She sent photos/videos each day, kept us updated and communicated with us about arrival and departure times based on our schedules. When we got home, our pups were happy and healthy and the house was in great shape. We loved her so much that we've already booked with Jackie again!”
14. Mikayla B.
“Mikayla was absolutely terrific, staying at our home and taking care of our little Chewy dog! We regularly communicated and she sent us pictures -- it was all very reassuring. Mikayla even washed the sheets and towels she had used! I highly recommend her to anyone and we'll definitely be using Rover.com and trying to reserve Mikayla again!”
15. Johanna V.
“Johanna was great with our two dogs. They got to stay in the comfort of their home and made a new friend! Would recommend her to any one and will use her services again!”
16. Jeffery L.
“Jeffery is a professional and reliable sitter who did a great job in our 2-dog household. He left great notes, provided check-ins and pictures, and left our home in better condition than we left it. It was a relief to know our fur babies were being so well cared for while we were out of town.”
17. Julia H.
“Our pups LOVED Julia! We were so stressed when we had an emergency cancellation and she took care of the dogs last minute for our wedding. She’s the best!”
18. Alexis S.
“Alexis is always responsive and attentive. She was so gentle with Gandalf and we’d love to have her pet sit for him the next time we’re out of town.”
19. Sheila R.
“I highly recommend Sheila to care for your babies! She is always the person I call when I go on vacation because I know my babies will not only be safe, but they will be loved on and treated as special as they are. She’s so patient and caring with her own dogs, and she has plenty more love for other animals. I’m sure a lot of people would be acceptable for the job, but if you want your babies to be treated special, with the love and attention you’d give them yourselves, then Sheila is your person!”
20. Katie M.
“Katie was great with our pets, and they were very excited to have her around! She kept us updated the entire time. We will definitely book again with her in the future.”
