Ismary is an extraordinary dog sitter who has been an absolute blessing to my furry friend, Max. Her unwavering dedication, boundless energy, and genuine love for dogs have made her a true standout in the pet care world. From the moment Max meets her, his tail starts wagging uncontrollably, a clear testament to the positive vibes she radiates. Ismary knows exactly when to throw Max his favorite tennis ball and when to soothe him with a belly rub. Her commitment to safety is remarkable; she always ensures Max is well-fed, well-exercised, and in great company. Whether it's trekking through the park, playing tug-of-war, or just lounging around, Ismary's attentive care creates an environment that Max eagerly anticipates every time. I can't express enough gratitude for the peace of mind Ismary brings while I'm away. She's not just a dog sitter; she's practically Max's second best friend, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking top-notch care for their furry companions.

It was my first time booking with Rover and Fillipe did a great job making me feel at ease by sending photos and videos and being a great communicator. Took initiative to communicate and always responded quickly, also has a great friendly easygoing personality. I could tell my pup was treated like part of the family and he had fun and felt comfortable.

It can be tough finding a sitter for my dog due to the trauma she has experienced in life but Steven, his girlfriend and his family were amazing with Dakota and I would highly recommend him if you need a great sitter. Im actually about to put in a request to rebook with him in a few weeks when I fly out to Iowa to visit some family. 10/10 experience

I cannot recommend Sade enough! We had to travel unexpectedly and Sade was willing to accommodate us with our shorter-than-expected deadline. She answered alk communication’s immediately and was gracious. There were thunderstorms the evening we dropped Winston off with her and she stayed with him and gave him comfort throughout. We loved getting frequent picsof our boy - he returned home happy and well-cared for!

OMG ! I don't even know where to start. This was my first time ever using the app let alone leaving my baby (ROYALTY) with anyone. I was extremely nervous. This was a last minute booking and because my family was going away for the weekend we desperately needed help. After talking to Veronica and getting to know her I was at ease and comfortable leaving my baby with her for the weekend. It was sooo easy talking to her. She answered all my questions and even shared information about herself. She asked details about Sleeping schedules, Feedings Etc which really warmed my heart because I instantly knew Royalty was in good hands. From the time I dropped Royalty off she sent me update after update, pictures, videos Etc I was sooo happy ! (She knew how nervous I was And it helped me be more at ease, AND I WAS ) Royalty was so relaxed and happy. I say all of this to say if you need a sitter I 100% recommend booking with her ! She's AMAZING ? I will be retuning for sure. Thank you so much ?

Nhi was amazing taking care of our cat Artie. He’s usually quite nervous going to a new place especially with other pets but Nhi made him feel right at home. She took our booking quite last minute when another sitter cancelled which ended up being a blessing in disguise. We will definitely book with her again.

Simba had a great time with Jamin. He was so well cared for and loved so much that couple days Jamin said he got into his bed and curled up with him. Once I saw how Jamin responded to my texts I was so much at ease about Simba's stay. I would definitely go back to him again and I highly recommend him for anyone who is looking for a great dog sitter.
