1. Laurelyn B.
“Laurelyn was fantastic! She was very punctual, took excellent care of my animals and house, gave great updates and was very responsive to schedule requests. We will definitely use her again and appreciate her time.”


2. Gabrielle D.

“Gabrielle was amazing! We were out of the country and our pet sitter had to leave early on our last day as we were traveling back home. We worked everything out with Gabrielle through the app. She showed up when we needed her to, and she did everything we needed so we didn’t worry about our babies as we were traveling home. I will definitely use her again, and I would recommend her without hesitation. And our babies seemed to love her!”


3. Janie & Emily J.


“Janie was amazing! She was attentive and patient with my three pups. It was nice not having to worry if they were in good hands. Also nice knowing she was flexible and if I needed an extra drop in she’d be there. She even did light cleaning while we were on vacation! Highly recommended!”


4. Ashley P.

“Very vigilant about Dottie’s wellbeing & making sure everything was in order. Took several pictures that my husband and I greatly enjoyed. Hopefully we won’t have to travel again soon but if we do we will certainly be booking Ashley again. Absolutely recommend 🩶”


5. Megan P.


“As always, Megan is the best sitter we could ask for when we are out of town. Our kitties adore her, and her thorough updates are the best. She even went above and beyond to take our trash out and remove a dead smoke detector battery - so sweet! Thanks for keeping the house and cats in the best shape possible”


6. Brittany T.
“Brittany was amazing. She was punctual for drop ins, played with my animals, let updates and photos for each visit. I will absolutely use her again!”


7. Tamar C.
“Tamar is so wonderful with pets. We have two dogs who love her dearly! Our boxer is a bit difficult to to handle , very hyper and used being aggressive as a safety strategy for himself. Tamar managed to connect with him on a level that prompted him to be open up and show that loving and calm side of himself to her. She has a pet of her own who she prioritizes over any human on this planet 😂 and whom she loves so dearly. I have never come across a person who works so well with ALL ANIMALS INSTANTANEOUSLY!”


8. Taylor M.
About: I have grown up helping to take care of family pets, as well as watching them and other pets for friends and family members. I have done anywhere from week-long stays to just pop-in visits. I am currently working part-time while home for a couple months. I will have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets! Whether it’s overnight or just daily walks! I always want to make sure the pet(s) is comfortable when I am entering their space. I know animals are typically pretty regimented (like us) so I want to make the transition of you being gone smooth.


9. Annette S.

“Annette was great! She sent me an update and photos after visiting my fur baby. She was very friendly and understanding of my fearful cat. I will definitely use her services again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy person.”


10. Krysten T.

“Krysten was so awesome with our sweet Eddie!! She has amazing communication and always made sure to let us know anything with Eddie while we were out of town!! We are super grateful for her!! And would highly recommend!!”


11. Anastasia D.

“Superb sitter! I've rarely seen my shy cat take to someone as fast as thoughly as he did to Anastasia! Highly recommended!”


12. Madison B.

“She is very responsible and I highly recommend her !!”


13. Mary H.
“I've known Mary Ann for over 15 years, our dogs grew up next door to each other. Mary Ann has one of the biggest hearts you'll ever meet, she treats all dogs just like her own. She took great care of my dog, along with other neighbor's dogs, multiple times over the years, they all love her, she became known as the dog whisperer.”


14. Hannah T.
“Hannah was fantastic with my dog Rocky! He is a pretty big dog but she handled him with ease. Hannah was always very gentle and played with my dogs whenever they wanted! I would recommend her to anyone to petsit!”




15. Dawn Q.

“Dawn took such great care of my kitties. I got photos of them every day, which makes me so happy. She also spent much more time with them than the allotted visit time since she does not have cats at home, so I know they got all the love and attention they are used to. She left everything cleaned up and made sure to stick to the routine and particulars that the kitties know. Thank you Dawn!!!”


16. Mindy F.
About: I have taken care of a lot of dogs throughout my life and take pride in being an amazing dog mom to my 2.5 year old pup! I work as a nurse and have a very flexible schedule with many open days/ week. I am looking to fill my free time with puppies & exercising them! I used rover with my puppy while working 12 hour shifts & would love to return the favor to other dog parents who are working/busy! I live right by many walking trails and dog park and would love to take your dog on long walks. I have a large fenced in backyard with a doggy door and an adorable 2.5 year old golden retriever. He becomes best friends with dogs of all ages and sizes. If you’re looking for your dog to get play time in & exercise, he is the perfect companion!




17. Maura & Joseph S.


“Maura and Joe have had Edgar at their place a few times, so I am always glad when they are available to drop in on the days we are both out of the apartment. They give a great report, always a few photos, and the price is fair. Will be booking again!”


18. Destiney B.
“Destiny sits my elderly cat. Feeds him, playtime, and just some company for 30 minutes. She does good work. Good kid! Thank you. Hi j”


19. Jeannine E.
“I would highly recommend Jeannine to be a pet caregiver. She loves animals, most especially cats. She's been a loving cat owner for about 30 years, taking in cats from all different situations. She would be the perfect person to care for your pets!”

“I felt at ease leaving my dog in Angie’s hands. She was responsible, reliable, and gave my pup all the attention and care they needed. A fantastic dog sitter!" 🐾🌟”
