We had a great experience with Katherine as our dog sitter! She did an amazing job with our 5 month old puppy, Joy, who has a ton of energy. Katherine stayed with her for 4 days, kept her active with lots of play and fetch, and even helped work on leash training. Joy was clearly comfortable and well cared for the entire time. We will definitely be booking with her again!

I can’t say enough great things about Camille! From the moment we met, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. She gave lots of love, attention, and playtime—and kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Camille is reliable, kind, and professional—we will absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch care. ★★★★★

Lavinia watched our Golden puppy for 6 days. We were kept informed every day. Mac seemed so happy during the week. Lavinia played with him to get that "puppy energy" out and he loved being with her. When we got home everything was perfect. Lavinia was very responsible and it was clear she wanted to make sure we were all happy with the arrangements and we absolutely were. I cannot say enough about this incredible sitter. We will definitely use Lavinia again!

About: Dog sitting was my first job as a teenager. My mom actually gave me the idea to start because she never wanted to have a pet, so this was such a fun compromise! Since then I’ve dog sat for small, medium and large dogs! I myself am an active person and love to be active with a furry friend! It’s nice to have company on a walk run or even someone to explore new parks with! I work full time but my schedule is fairly flexible! I am a therapist and have ability to work from home at times as long as I am not in a session or scheduled to run group therapy! I am happy to stay at your home and care for your pet with the instructions you give! I am happy to walk, play, pet, feed and clean up after your dog.

Abigail was a wonderful dog and house sitter! She is kind, responsible, and communicative. When we had a meet and greet, she asked several thoughtful questions. Our dogs were happy when we returned from our trip and our house was left immaculate. We wish Abigail lived near us all the time (she was home for the summer from college). We recommend her without any reservations!

This was our first time using Emily and she was great! Friendly, communicative, & accommodating, took great care of our fur babies, and left things better than she found them! I appreciated her flexibility with a few last minute requests and that she made sure to ask questions on anything that was unclear. Would absolutely use Emily again!

Gianna was amazing. We were visiting from out of town and booked her pretty last minute. She came to meet our pup a few hours before sitting for her. She asked such good questions about how to best care for her. She was flexible about start and end times. We highly recommend her.

We had Shelby watch our two large, energetic dogs while we were away for a long weekend. It was our first time using a sitter via rover and Shelby made the experience amazing! She took excellent care of our dogs and we felt very comfortable with her being in and looking after our home. She sent photo updates and made sure they were very well looked after! When our flight was delayed on the way home, she was even willing to help us out beyond the initial time booked. We would 100% utilize Shelby’s services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter for their pets!

Edward did a great job for us. He and our dog Buddy got along famously, and he was especially diligent about keeping us informed about Buddy’s time with him. Edward stayed with Buddy for five days and kept us up-to-date throughout. Additionally, the house was left in perfect condition. We will certainly use Edward for our next trip away.

About: In highschool I was very popular in my neighborhood from doing there dog nails, to dog sitting, over night stays, and even medications. Even back in high school I had a part time and school and still made sure the fur babies were taken care of. To this day I still dog sit for my neighbor. I also worked at a doggy daycare for about 6 months then i moved, I learned so much while I was there in that short period of time from learning to gain respect and how to control a group of 15+ dogs . And was in a animal science program in highschool with a mentorship at a clinic, then tried to go to college for my vet tech degree but too expensive(still paying that off). I also do have a very energetic German shepherd who I train every day she knows pretty much everything(sit, lay down, roll over,paw, other paw,high five, spin, heel, center, look, leave it, back up, and wait). I also dog sat for my boyfriend's coworker who had an older pointer who had a seziure not only did I comfort the dog but I called owner asap then vet, I then called off of work. Just because it's not my animal doesn't mean I will love them any less. But the take away from all that is I have a lot of experience in the animal department. I'm currently working part time and have a lot of free time on my hands and love being around animals . I only work wensday-saturday the other days I'm free. But as you can see with my profile I do have my own fur baby but my boyfriend never works nights or weekends so she won't be alone. For the pets at clients housing not only will I respond to you text asap even if I'm busy, I will also ask for guide lines and try to keep your dog on the schedule you have them on consistency is key, especially when a change like you leaving happens. I also am a big over thinker so before I let the dog out if you have a yard I will always make sure the gates are close and secure and make sure there's nothing laying out that would harm them. When I dog sit I imagine as if it's my own dog.

Madeline took wonderful care of Dottie Mae and June Bug while we were away. She provided consistent communication throughout their stay and sent plenty of pictures, which gave us great peace of mind and let us see how happy and well cared for they were. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our dogs and treated them like her own. We came home to two happy, relaxed pups, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Madeline was a fantastic caretaker, and we will absolutely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend!

Saoirse was great with my pets! I had been burned before with previous sitters and they were very understanding about my concerns. Saoirse sent me pictures of my babes through the week, took my dog Sammy on an adventure. She kept me updated and very comfortable with her care of them. I would highly recommend her, and definitely would invite her to sit for me again. Thank you !

Words cannot express how highly we think of Emily. We have used her often and she is fantastic but during the recent stay she went above and beyond. She identified that our dog was having a medical emergency, she took him to urgent care and then drove an hour and a half each way to get a prescription that he urgently needed (it was not available locally). She may literally have saved his eyesight. We will always be grateful for Emily and five stars is not nearly a high enough rating.

Corwin took very good care of my two 15 year old Munchkin Cats. I had him do overnights since Mochi, the female needs medication daily. I rarely go away more than 4 days and I was very comfortable leaving for over a week. Corwin sent me many photos and I could see how both cats loved him being around! I definitely would recommend Corwin to take care of your fur babies! 😻😻
