1. Michelle G.

“Michelle is the best! I have had her house & pet sit for me numerous times. She is always reliable and communicates quickly. It's nice that I can travel knowing that my Paisley is well taken care of!”




2. Lauren R.

“Lauren was very communicative and responsive for our entire vacation. She went above and beyond to make sure Forest had what he needed and even got him out on some nice long walks. She also made sure things around the house were taken care and even took a few additional requests with ease. I would absolutely book again and highly recommend to anyone else who needs loyal and proper care for their furry friends.”


3. Ozzy J.

“Literally the best sitter! This was my first time using a sitter from rover. I knew from the profile and meet and greet this was going to be a long term sitter for my pets! All 4 dogs were cared for well even my old chihuahua who gets depressed when I travel. She also updated me while on vacation on them.”

8. Kasey G.

“Kasey is extremely professional, timely, and communicative. She has done a few walks and 1 3-night house sitting booking for us. During the long weekend stay, she sent us pictures and checked-in each day. She even left us a very thoughtful welcome home gift! We are so thankful we found Kasey and will absolutely rebook for future stays and walks.”




9. Linda A.

13. Erin C.
About: I am local to Downtown Troy and would love to care for your pets! I am home often with a flexible job schedule, so please feel free to message me if it looks my availability isn’t clear for your days/times needed, I can typically open it up for last minute requests. I have cared for animals with all kinds of different personalities and needs, so I am very confident in my ability to care for your fur babies! I am currently working hybrid, which comes with a fair amount if availability and a flexible schedule, I’m looking to use my extra time to spend time with adorable fur babies! If booking me for a walk, I am extremely familiar with surrounding areas (and know many of the local dogs and their owners that are out and about!), allowing me to make sure that your pets are safe when spending any time outside with me. I will be on high alert to make sure your pet has nothing but positive interactions.

“We booked our second house sitting experience with Brian, and he was fantastic again! He even took our senior puppy to her vet appointment, as we couldn't make it home in time. Thank you Brian for taking such great care of our girl.”


15. Phelan S.

“Couldn’t ask for any more. Constant updates with pictures and videos. Will for sure use again”


16. Christina G.


“Christina did a great job house sitting for us!! She took the time to ask and understand what our dog needed and what his daily routine was like. She is detailed in her updates throughout the stay and we were able to relax and enjoy our trip comfortable that she had everything under control. Highly recommend Christina for your pet sitting needs😃”


17. Allison B.
“Allison is one of very few people I would trust watching my own pup! She is attentive, loving, caring and will give your dog all of her attention. I have known Allison for the majority of my life, and there is no one I would recommend more! In addition to her love for animals, she is also responsible, trustworthy and communicative. 10/10!”


18. Rachel K.
“I have known Rachel Kiely for the last 8 years. During that time she has taken care of my 2 dogs and 3 cats on multiple occasions. Every time my pets are with Rachel I know that they are well taken care of. She takes them on long walks and has even given them baths when they weren’t needed. My dogs are always so happy when Rachel comes over. The cats are always feed and played with. Rachel has spent her own money on treats and toys for my animals. I would 100% recommend her to any of my friends and family that needs a pet watched.”




19. Molly D.
“Molly would be a responsible and loving dog caregiver. Molly has years of dog experience. Molly would make sure the dog is played with, exercised, fed, groomed according to their plan. She is on time, has great communication skills and will make sure the dogs are well cared for and safe.”
