1. Jorden A.

“Jorden is conscientious and takes care of business. More to the point, Jorden is one of my dog's favorite people, and the cat came out to look and see Jorden on the 2nd day, which is a lot of friendliness on his part!”


2. Jessica S.

“Jessica was great at staying with our sweet boy and taking good care of him! She sent us updates regularly and was great to work with. Thanks so much!”


3. Sarah L.
“Sarah is wonderful with our elderly fur baby! She is very responsible and communicative with us and so patient with our old girl, who sometimes has a mind of her own. We use her when we are out of town or even have a long day and need someone to come walk her and let her out if we are delayed. And we love the pictures Sarah sends! Our girl gets so excited when she sees Sarah pull up, that says it all!!”


4. Klarysa S.

“This is the third time we've had Klarysa take care of our babies and she is simply amazing. She is so communicative, kind, and thorough. Our animals require a lot of attention and care, and Klarysa always goes above and beyond. She even asked if she could bring extra treats and toys to share with our cat. It is a huge relief to trust someone who can take such great care of our pets and our place! If she is available, you'd be so lucky to book her!”


5. Sarah-Jane S.

“Sarah-Jane watched our kittens over a long weekend. Everything went well and it was nice to get updates on the girls. She left our place tidy and the cats were kept happy. Thank you!”


6. Callie B.


“I was so nervous after my normal dog sitter moved away. I tried Rover after a suggestion from a friend. I found Callie. Callie is the absolute best! Above a five star! She took such good care of my house and my two huskies! I have an older husky and she went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable. She took my younger more energetic husky on walks, played outside with her and made sure she got all the exercise she needed! Callie I can’t say enough about how grateful I am to you and Gemma! I would highly recommend her and will book her again for sure!”


7. Andrew D.
“I've know Andrew for over a decade now, and he has always had a kindness and love for animals. He has always been willing to go the extra mile to ensure any of the pets he's had are happy, healthy, and adored.”


8. Teri H.

“I never left my dog with anyone except my daughter and only overnight and she’s almost 12. I was anxious to do so and Teri reassured me she’d take good care of her. I got texts throughout my trip with photos. I missed her but was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing she was being taken care. I would recommend Teri (and Molly) and definitely would use them again.”


9. nevaeh b.

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my pets received while I was away over Christmas! Nevaeh went above and beyond to make sure both my dog and cat were well taken care of. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. I came home to happy, healthy pets and a clean home, which is always a huge relief. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter. Thank you so much!”


10. Colin P.

“Collin was great with our dog, Remy! He was very nice, professional, and followed all our directions. Remy is 85 pounds of pure muscle and can be a bit rough, especially with pulling on walks, but Collin handled her like a pro from day one. Super responsive and clearly experienced—highly recommend!”


11. Linda N.

“Linda was wonderful! I had an unusual request and she was so helpful and accommodating! My family was coming from SC and staying at a hotel in the area for our son’s wedding. The problem was we needed someone to care for our fragile elderly dog we traveled with while she was in our hotel room. We didn’t like leaving her for so many hours and worrying how she was. Linda was so kind and we talked on the phone prior to discuss our dog Blossom’s needs. She arrived at the hotel the morning of the wedding (offered to bring us coffee on the way) and she was so friendly and happy to help! She sent pics and updates for me to look at so I knew how she was doing. She took care of her perfectly - It was such a relief for me to enjoy the wedding with no worries about my precious “baby” as I knew she was in good hands! I will be recommending her to my son who also has a dog! Thank you Linda!”


12. Katrina R.

“Katrina was very responsive and detailed throughout the process from booking to the days leading up to our trip. Would definitely use her again ! Our house was kept in great order as well.”


13. Chloe H.
“Chloe is a breeze to work with. She is extremely responsible and goes out of her way to send me updates along with pictures of my Snoopy while I am away. 10/10 reccomend!!”


14. Lauren A.
About: I've had dogs in my life since I was a child, and for the past 7 years, I’ve been independently caring for them. From big to small breeds, I’ve handled a variety of dogs with different personalities and needs. I’ve provided drop-ins for bathroom breaks, feeding (including dogs with allergies or specific requirements), and I’m always excited to take dogs for walks and hikes. I’m experienced with both skittish pups and energetic jumpers—jumping doesn’t bother me, and I know how to manage it safely. I’ve also cared for dogs with basic health needs like administering pills or shots. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I truly miss the companionship and bond that comes with spending time with a furry friend. I currently work remotely part-time, which provides me with the flexibility to work from anywhere — including your home! This also allows me to offer convenient drop-in services during my lunch hour, ensuring your pet receives the care and attention they need while you're away. I believe in the importance of meeting both the family and the dogs prior to sitting. This helps establish trust and ensures a smooth transition for both the pet and the family. I understand that it can be stressful for a dog to have a stranger in their home, so I like to take the time beforehand and allow the dog to become familiar with me.


15. Felicia L.

“Need more stars! This is the first time in 17 years I did not agonize about leaving my Luna. Felicia is so kind and caring. Just an amazing person. So I give her 10 stars. She is a blessing to pet owners. Thank you Thank you Thank you.”


16. Sam H.

“Sam took wonderful care of our 2 dogs that both required medication and extra attention. She kept in close contact with us throughout our time away. We lost power for a stretch and she took this in stride and kept us up to date on the dogs and the house. We will definitely plan to have Sam come look after the dogs again.”

18. Lindsey D.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who’s had the joy of living with dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to sweet seniors. With years of hands-on experience, I’m confident in everything from administering medications to managing multiple pups at once. As a mom and remote worker, I have a flexible schedule and a nurturing home environment, making me the perfect person to care for your beloved fur babies while you’re away. Whether it’s cuddles, walks, or special care, your dog will be treated like family with me. I’m currently a stay home mom and a remote worker (kids in daycare during day). My own doggies love being home with me, but I can also visit your furry loved ones when you are away. I have a family-friendly oriented home with lots of kids, fur babies of my own (2 big Goldens and 1 senior chihuahua). Your doggies will get lots of attention from everyone and me. My house is big enough to offer space where my kids/doggies aren’t in so they can have the flexibility of just me being around for TLC.


19. Leeann S.

“I highly recommend Leeann! She was patient and attentive with our anxious Chihuahua during his first time with us being away, providing detailed updates and responding to my messages promptly. She's a great sitter that really cares about your animals.”
