“Ava was wonderful! She was very communicative, sending updates with pictures. She was very respectful and left our home clean and tidy! Most importantly Coco loved her and had a great time!!”

“So many pictures and a very happy kitty :) Ciboney even took the time to wash our sheets before we came back home since we booked house sitting. Will definitely book again!”

“What a great dog sitter. Her and Stella had a great time. She took her for walks, dealt with some of her unbeknownst issues. Would highly recommend and will be using her for dog walking and house sitting. Again, thank you so much!”

“We had a great experience with our reactive dog and nervous kitty! Iuliia came over for a meet and greet a few days prior to our trip and I was surprised at how quickly both pets took to her. She took great care of them and our home during her stay and sent us daily updates as requested. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Erin has watched my dogs several times over the years and, as always, did a great job communicating, sending photos, and most importantly taking care of my dogs for two weeks. Also left the house in great shape.”


“Olivia was absolutely wonderful!!! This was our first time having someone petsit for us through Rover and we were pretty nervous. We have an anxious Aussie, two older cats and two ferrets - so it's a lot. She immediately eased my nerves by sending lots of pictures and updates the entire stay and the pets warmed right up to her! Also it was SO NICE to come back from vacation and she had tidied up the house and brought in our packages for us. She will definitely be our #1 choice for taking care of our pets from here on out.”

“Leaving our energetic standard poodle with Jessica felt like we were leaving him with a close friend. We were away for two weeks and we didn’t worried about him once. Jessica kept in touch just the right amount and from her texts and photos we could see that Charley was get plenty of exercise and love and he likes a lot of both. We and Charley look forward to having her dog sit again.”


“excellent gal and great pricing too! she really goes above and beyond her pay grade and puts in the extra mile to make my animals feel safe while i was away! will rebook when needed!!! Also the pictures she sent put me at ease 11/10”

“Lilah is my go to house/dog sitter when I’m out of town! My two dogs are so well cared for, she communicates frequently, and even sends little check in photos!! So happy with Lilah’s care!”

“Sarah was so great with our two dogs and cat! She was responsible, neat, respectful, kind. Everything we could hope for!!! So happy to have worked with Sarah!!! I give her the highest recommendation.”

“Leah was awesome - took wonderful care of our kitty and our home while we were away for five days over Christmas. Kept in touch by sending us updates and photos so we knew everything was fine. Kitty had just had dental surgery, was on a special diet and can be anxious and lonely without her humans around. She's also shy around people she doesn't know. But she really took to Leah and they got along great. I'm definitely going to have Leah back the next time we are out of town and would highly recommend her for cat sitting.”

“Lucy was fantastic for us. She communicated well with us before and during the stay. She seemed to follow the directions we gave her extremely well and asked questions about stuff and kept notes for herself too so she could make sure everything was followed. When we got home, the house was as clean, if not cleaner, than when we left it. We were extremely happy with her and the booking.”

“Lauren took such great care of Jazzi and Remi! She sent updates and photos and I could tell they were all having the best time! I will definitely be booking her services again. Thanks Lauren!! 🐾💕”

“Mary kept me informed / updated throughout her stay with messages, pictures and videos. She was respectful of my dog’s shyness, asked clarifying questions and took great care of him!”

“Biiftuu was an excellent dog sitter. She clearly took good care of my little Aussie poo. She sent good pictures and left the house in excellent shape. I would hire her again.”

“Penny was absolutely wonderful with our Bailey boy. He absolutely adored her and has been looking for her since we got home! She was very communicative and cared for him as if he was one of her own. 100% recommend her for any of your needs. We are ready to plan our next vacation knowing we have Penny to care for him ❤️”

“Rachel is a natural with animals. I feel like you could throw her into any situation and she'd be great! She's thoughtful, trustworthy, and leaves your pups happy and content!”

“Marykay did an amazing job taking care of our dog, River, and cat, Lily. Both of our pets were well-loved and cared for during her time with them. She also kept our home in great shape, making the whole experience stress-free and enjoyable. We couldn’t have asked for a more thoughtful and responsible caregiver. Highly recommend her!”

Eleanor was amazing with my greyhound Lenny! She was very attentive and patient with his special needs (medicine, reactivity to other dogs). I loved getting pictures and updates about how happy he was with her! It put me at ease to know my fur son was in her excellent care ❤️

We had Savannah watch our two big dogs at our home over Labor Day weekend while we were on a remote hiking trip. I was feeling really nervous leaving our dogs with someone new when I wouldn’t have cell service to check on them. Savannah went the extra mile to put my mind at ease, had great communication throughout, and we came home to happy healthy dogs. She asked thoughtful questions, treated us with kindness, and took great care of our home. We would recommend her to anyone and would love to book with her again in the future. Thank you so much, Savannah! You’re the best! :)

Makenzie did a fantastic job! My two dogs and two cats are not always the easiest to deal with but they were very well taken care of and they seemed to have had a great time! Makenzie made it very easy to communicate my animals needs and also very flexible with my sudden change in schedule. Will most definitely schedule with her again!!

Kevin was great! We had him house/pet sit for 5 days, and he took great care of our 3 dogs and our kitty. He sent us regular updates, made sure our dogs got regular walks each day, which gave us a lot of relief to relax during our vacation, and all our animals seemed to love him! We will definitely book with him again in the future and definitely recommend.

Eleanor was fantastic. She took excellent care of our dog Susie, taking her on several half hour walks, had great communication with us, and left the house perfect. We had peace of mind that our home and pet were in good hands, which let us relax and enjoy our time away. Overall, excellent experience having Eleanor take care of our Susie and our home.

Katelin was great with our two pups! They can be quite a handful sometimes (including multiple medications), but she handled everything smoothly and kept them happy. Since our dogs are used to us working remotely, we were so grateful that Katelin was able to give them so much love and attention. We really appreciated her coming over before we left to get acquainted, too. She was easy to communicate with and took great care of our home.
