1. Katie M.

“Katie did a fantastic job sitting for Smokey and Tucker. Smokey gave her lots of kisses, which shows that he loved her, and Tucker started following her around like she does me and snuggled with her. Katie is very attentive to the dogs, sends lots of messages and pictures to keep you informed, and gave the dogs their food and meds at the appropriate times. I will definitely call on Katie the next time we need a sitter. She is awesome!”


2. Kelly Lea L.

“Kelly was the perfect choice for housesitting my pets. She had her hands full and graciously attended to each pet and their certain needs. My oldest pup had a little separation depression and wasn’t eating a lot so she made her some chicken and hand fed her some nuggets and gave her extra assurance to make her feel okay! I would highly recommend this sitter! She took great care of my pets and my house!”


3. Nathan L.

“Nathan was wonderful. He sent photo updates, was responsive if I messaged and took great care of our two Great Danes. Finding a competent sitter for large dogs is hard, but Nathan was great and they loved him too.”


4. Avary H.

“Avary was just amazing. She treated my girl dogs with great love and care. I will definitely use Avary again. My house looked amazing upon my return, I am so happy to have found Avary.”


5. Christian G.

“As always, Christian made my River happy & had the best time with him. She sent tons of the cutest pictures ever and even shared some of dinner with him (I, of course, told her he can have any table scraps in advance) my River just loves hanging with his buddy Christian! 10 out of 10 highly recommended! She’s the only person we trust with our fur baby these days outside of our own flesh and blood!”


6. Kristen P.


“We had never used Rover before and were very nervous about having someone stay in our home with our puppies. Kristen was great. This was a last minute trip and she worked with our schedule to do a quick meet and greet to help us fee better about the entire process. Our dogs loved their time with her, and we never felt like we had to worry while she was staying at our home. We will definitely use Kristen again when we have to leave town.”


7. Heather W.
“I cannot say enough good things about Heather's care with our dog. We have a small golden/corgi mix that Heather has walked and watched several times. Heather makes sure to take detailed notes about our dog's day and provides photos/videos of how our dog's day is going. She is great at staying on a schedule and our dog is so excited to see her every time.”


8. Linda R.


“To say Linda was a great sitter would be a major understatement. A 9-year-old Great Dane, a 9-month-old Great Dane, 2 elderly mixed furrmutts, and a moody cat were actually very content that mommy wasn't home. I received photos everyday from Linda (like seriously professional quality) and she updated me every time she "checked in". Even with all of those mouths to feed and attention to give, she still found time to bring in my mail, take the trash out, etc. If you ever find yourself in need of someone to take care of your fur family members, please contact Linda. Especially if you have a large/giant breed like I do. She was not intimidated at all by their size or my 100+lbs puppy's energy. Everyone took to Linda right away, including me, and knowing I could contact her at anytime while I was away to check-in was very reassuring. Having Linda at my house instead of having to board my babies allowed me to truly enjoy my Father's Memorial. Thank you Linda!”


9. Austin S.
“Austin is a very caring and attentive young man. As long as I’ve known him he has displayed a love for pets of all kinds, especially dogs. He is sure to show your pet the attention they deserve. He is the ideal guy !”


10. Zoila & Donavan R.

“Zoila and Donovan were fantastic. They regularly sent us updates with pictures and made us feel very confident in them. We will definitely be using them in the future and recommend them to anyone.”


11. Cassidy M.
“Cassidy has been petsitting for us for four years and takes the most amazing care of our pets. We have 4 cats and 3 dogs that she stays with in our home when we travel. They love spending time with her so much that I don’t even think they notice when we are gone. Our dogs look forward to their walks and daily trips to the dog park with Cassie. She is typically available when we need her for a short or long term visit, even with last minute notice. She will take great care of your pets and treat them as if they were her own.”


12. Jenny C.
“Jenny loves all animals. She is patient and kind with them and they respond positively to her very soon. Jenny is dependable and has a warm and outgoing personality. She keeps the pet areas very clean. I highly recommend her.”


13. leah p.

“Leah was amazing with my dog/house sitting. She sent me pictures to keep me updated and left me home and my fur baby just as I left them. I’m grateful to have someone to trust my home and pet to while I’m away.”


14. Isabella B.

“Bella watched my 10 week old puppy all day this week and did an amazing job!!! My puppy adores her, and I was sent updates and pictures throughout the day. Bella is polite, professional and has a gentle energy that animals love, I would highly recommend her for your pets!!! Will be hiring again :)”


15. kendall f.
“Kendall is great with dogs! She has been a dog sitter for us for years. Our pup absolutely loves her - when Kendall comes over Freckles goes right to her and will sit in her lap and snuggle. One time our neighbor accidentally let Freckles get out and Kendall came to the rescue and found her the next street over. I would highly recommend Kendall to anyone who wants an absolute dog lover to care for your pet. Just be warned that Kendall will get attached to your pet! :)”


16. Kimmy S.
