We reached out to Steph to watch our pets on short notice and she quickly agreed! She even made time for a meet and greet. She took excellent care of our pets and sent tons of photos. We came back to a clean home and happy pets. Will definitely use again!

Janet is fantastic—I could tell she has experience with cats, she sent tons of photos & videos every day, and she went above & beyond with the ‘house sitting’ part. I would (& plan to!) absolutely hire her for future pet sits. Thank you!!

From the moment we met Honor, it was evident the genuine passion for pets, professionalism and previous experience. My baby cat is usually very shy and does not like being alone, but with Honor’s companion she was showered with love, attention, and care. Honor's punctuality, professionalism, and communication skills truly set them apart. Also, my cat needed to take meds and Honor was able to give them to her, and we even got pictures of our cat throughout our trip :). My baby was relaxed and content when we returned, which speaks volumes about the exceptional level of care she received. I wouldn't hesitate to book Honor again for any future cat-sitting needs!

I highly recommend Nina as a pet sitter. She is a very responsible and diligent person, and would not let your customers down. I watched her take care of her senior cat lovingly, and my dogs actually prefer to be near her whenever she is around them. She has the perfect personality to hang out with and take care of her own and others' pets, and she truly understands the importance our fur babies hold in our lives. She would make a great addition to the Rover team.

Once again Ariel did a PHENOMENAL job taking care of our kitty Beverly. As before, Beverly, who can take a while to warm up to people, was nuzzling Ariel in short order. We got lots of photos and updates. It's so wonderful not to have to worry one bit when Ariel is on the job.

Absolutely would recommend Tosha for all dog sitting needs. She made time to meet ahead of time and took great care to understand Lady’s needs and preferences. She was very responsive and gave daily updates and photos throughout her time caring for Lady. She left my apartment is perfect condition and I came home to a very happy pup.

Ken watched our German Shepherd for a weekend. He kept us updated with pictures and even administered medicine that she needed. Our girl was happy and less anxious when we got home. We would definitely recommend having Ken as a sitter/dog walker!

About: I've always had a love for animals ever since I was a child. I treat every dog as my own and to make sure they feel safe and loved is my biggest priority! As of right now, my availability is pretty open. I don’t work a 9-5 at the moment and I do photography from time to time but nothing that will cause me to be out of the house for an extended period of time. I live in a very safe neighborhood with three dog parks close by my apartment. My apartment is also pretty spacious as well. Dogs are allowed on the bed and couch as well :)

Shariana came to the rescue last minute when our previous sitter had an emergency and couldn't watch over our pup and she was incredibly communicative in coordinating the booking under such a time crunch. As for the care, she was incredibly loving to our dog during the sitting experience and sent us consistent text/photo updates while we were away, which was all much appreciated! We're definitely planning on using her again and would recommend her to any/everyone!

Alexa is amazing! She graciously watched my foster pup in a last minute pinch and offered to meet him the morning of. Americano warmed up to her immediately and now wags his tail if I say “Alexa!”. This was his first time with a sitter and Alexa was very accommodating, asked great questions and provided multiple updates/photos on while I away. Alexa is very sweet, professional and experienced with large and reactive dogs. We are very grateful to her and would highly recommend!

Hi All - just wanted to give you a review of Karl J. and the wonderful care he provided for our pets and home. We travel for at least a week at a time and never have any worries with Karl taking care of things. We have our Border Collie Bella and a black cat Aptos and it really helps ease the travel worries to have reliable, trustworthy care for our fur babies. He made sure Bella got her walks and play time!! We highly recommend Karl!

Sherree was wonderful with my little Winston! She sent so many photos and videos during her night babysitting him and it was obvious how much Winston loved her. She even went above and beyond and took him to Target and bought him a treat! We love Sherree and can’t wait to have her back!

Brittney was such a great match for Xola. She went above and beyond by coming over earlier in the week to go to the dog park with us and build a bond with my dog before they were on their own together. She was very courteous, punctual, and sent lots of photos of their time together. Will definitely book her again in the future.
