“I was very satisfied with Amy. She came before the stay so both my cat and I could become acquainted and review house access. She and my cat were immediate friends. She sent me pictures each day and we communicated by text and email. My house looked better when I returned than when I left. She is very kind and caring and I would recommend her without any qualms.”
“Illeana was great. She house sat and took good care of my babies while I was away on a trip. She was very respectful of my home, gave me tons of updates and my dogs loved her. I highly recommend her:)”
“This is the second time I've used Hannah for a full week House and Dog sit, and would gladly call on her again. This trip even had a slight issue: (groomer cut dog right before our trip) and Hannah had to deal with my Winn licking the wound, and a small bloody cut. Hannah communicated the issue well and patched him up fine. She also leaves the house exactly as she enters it, leaving it as clean, if not cleaner, than it was left to her. I highly recommend for any service. I've also had one of my neighbors call on her and they were just as happy.”
“Don’t know how many times we can say how much we love and trust Scarlett with our babies. We have found our go-to care taker for them when we’re gone. Her and her daughter are amazing!”
“Jeweliana and Riley were phenomenal! We were initially skeptical since we had never used Rover before, but we’re so glad we found them. They were very communicative, kind to our dogs, and took excellent care of our home. I’m so thankful to have found people who get along so well with our pups and make us feel comfortable while we’re away, knowing our babies are in great hands.”
“Amazing care and my cat loves her!! First sleepover for a week while I was gone and she was super efficient and went the extra mile taking care of Kaydo. I Highly recommend Ashley.”
“I really appreciate Alexis‘s patience and grace, while dealing with my energetic and rambunctious puppy. I was very anxious about leaving her as this was my first time away from her since I got her in November. Alexis was gracious and communicated with me often. I’d definitely use her again if she will have us. 😂”
“Johana was great with my Yuki. Yuki needs her medicine twice per day, early in the morning and in the evening and Johana was able to make sure she was taken care of. It's not easy for me to trust that Yuki is being taken care of, but Johana did a great job and sent me notes to know that she was ok and happy and safe. She went the extra mile for me and I really appreciate how nice and supportive she is.”
“Cheyenne is AMAZING! Our dogs love her. They are both a little skittish around strangers, but they both went right up to her at our first meeting. She took care of them and our house over and above our expectations. She sent pictures regularly and sent updates on how they were doing. If I could give her more than 5 stars, I would! This was the first time we left them with anyone and were anxious about how they would do - They were happy and healthy when we returned. Our cat loves her, too, though we were not too worried about him, he's a pretty affectionate and easygoing guy. She will definitely be our first (and only) choice of sitters in the future. We feel so lucky to have connected with such a wonderful person!”
“Kristie looked after out pit-mix and cat for a weekend and was fantastic. She was gracious and asked great questions during our initial meet and greet. She gave us updates and pics throughout the weekend. She was such a calm presence for our animals while we were away. Our home was clean and looked great, when we returned. We would definitely rebook with her. Thank you Kristie!”
“Cathryn was an excellent sitter for our two dogs. She took very good care of them -- meals, treats and dog walking. There was plenty of snuggle time, too. She left an immaculate house. We will definitely ask Cathryn to sit for us again. Fortunate to have her! Thanks Cathryn!”
“Kevin and his wife were both so kind and supportive when caring for my rescue pup, Wrigley. My dog has extreme anxiety and some behavioral issues. But, Wrigley warmed up quickly to Kevin and his wife. They were very flexible with our last-minute schedule changes and understanding of my dog’s needs. I also appreciated the daily updates and photos. I would highly recommend Kevin as a dog sitter!”
“Hailey was a pleasure to work with. She was able to squeeze us in at short notice after another sitter was not able to stay with our dogs. She came for a meet and greet and was great with our crew. She was on top of everything and had thoughtful questions. It was a relief to have her while we were gone. She sent updates, pictures, and took care of their special needs even when one had some GI issues while we were gone. I would highly recommend and we will be working with her again in the future!”
“Lauren is an exceptional sitter. She really understood the different needs of our dogs and was conscientious in every way. She was also very communicative and took great care of our home. We look forward to booking her again!”
About: I care for 3 dogs, 9 cats, & more in a happy, healthy, and clean home. Animals and their wellbeing is central to my life at home. I'm happy to offer my caring attention to your family as well! I am a local middle school teacher who's off for the summer, so I am free 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Open to long or short term work. Each species has it's own language, each breed it's own dialect, and each animal a unique personality. After years of caring for my own animals, I understand that nothing is more important than looking and listening when they attempt to communicate.

Jeweliana and Riley took excellent care of our two dogs while we were on vacation for 10 days. They sent us lots of updates and pictures while we were away, which gave us peace of mind our pups were in such good hands. Our house was spotless when we returned and our fur babies were very happy. We will absolutely book them again!
I really appreciate Alexis‘s patience and grace, while dealing with my energetic and rambunctious puppy. I was very anxious about leaving her as this was my first time away from her since I got her in November. Alexis was gracious and communicated with me often. I’d definitely use her again if she will have us. 😂
MAISY IS WONDERFUL! Honestly can’t say enough great things about my experience. Since it was my first time using Rover I was a bit nervous but she exceeded my expectations. She communicated constantly, sent me photos and had no issue sleeping on my couch with him (he’s a cuddler and needs the love). Also spent time real quality time with him outside, giving him his favorite bones and giving him lots of head scratches! I was skeptical because she only had one review at the time but it’s clear that experience was due to negligence from the owner who deliberately told lies. Dont be fooled, Maisy is an amazing dog sitter and human being. Thank you Maisy!
Wow! I knew once meeting Scarlett that I had made the perfect match for my pup, Curbie. She and her daughter, Markie tag teamed at my house while sitting with my pup for almost 2 weeks. They both are animal (dog) lovers— you can tell that in the meet and greet by the questions she/they asked about caring for my older dog. I got updates and pictures even knowing I was out of the country and I might not have received them Scarlett and Markie still sent them to reassure Curbie was in great care. He was happy when I got home. Scarlett cared for my home too. She left it cleaner than when I left for my trip. She even washed her bed linen— I will be using her again and recommending her in the future to those who need a sitter for their pets of varied breeds and sizes. It’s scary to leave your pets in someone’s care but I was at ease knowing Curbie was in excellent hands.
Taylor did an absolutely wonderful job watching our two dogs in our home. Her communication was excellent the entire time, which allowed me to truly rest easy and enjoy our trip knowing the dogs were in such great hands. We came back to happy pups and a perfectly cared-for house. I would happily use her again and highly recommend her to anyone!
It was our first time with this app our first time getting Adriana as a sitter for my doggie. She was great with my baby(gufy) he liked her. Everything was smooth she communicated with us on anything and gave me updates on Gufy every day. We are happy that we choose Adriana to take care of our baby Gufy. She is a very responsible person.
We were out of the country for two weeks and very anxious about leaving our pets, especially our old dog who is having a lot of mobility and incontinence issues. We knew from previous trips (and other old dogs) that Layda would take excellent care and be able to handle any curve balls that Aster might throw her way. Layda cares for our pets like her own and we felt much more confident on this trip knowing that she was here with them.
