“Theresa is an absolute ROCKSTAR. I couldn’t get my pup outside to go potty before I had to rush to work so I was worried she would be cooped up all day. Theresa responded to my request within less than a minute, and was at my house walking my dog in less than an hour. Keep in mind, my dog is a very nervous rescue, so it can be tricky to get her harness on but Theresa is so gentle and understanding with her. She took my pup for a walk and got her to go potty and stretch her legs so now I don’t have to spend all day worried about my pup. I cannot recommend Theresa enough!!! She is the BEST!!!”
“Bri absolutely saved us. She stepped in last minute to watch our dogs while we were away and was fantastic from start to finish. Communication was easy and reassuring, she was reliable, and it was clear our dogs were well cared for and comfortable the whole time. Coming home to happy pups made all the difference. We’re incredibly grateful and would trust Bri again in a heartbeat.”
“Alexandra is an absolute life saver. My ferret sitter canceled while we were on the road to out trip away. I was panicking because I had this trip booked weeks in advance. She stepped up and helped me out right away. She has been a Godsend . Has loved on my furbabies and my kitty. I cannot say enough thank yous and HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!! Thank you Alexandra will be asking you again on our next trips if you are available!!”
About: I have dog sat many times before! I enjoy helping out and making sure the animal has everything they need to thrive. I’m very attentive as well as communicative. I am available 24/7. I am a college student home for the summer, so I have a flexible schedule. There is availability for overnight stays as well as short ones too. I believe an animals health and well being comes before anything else. I can spend a lot of time with your pet if needed to accommodate for my lack of space.
“If you have a furry friend or a furry baby, that you love with all your heart, then Pam is definitely the way to go for pet care or sitting. Pam is so loving and attentive, looking out for the needs of our baby that we intend to use her time and time and time again. She is absolutely the best and it’s all the little tiny things that arise when you’re away that you don’t think of in the planning and she took care of it for us. She’s a real pro! She’s an A+ 5 stars all the way, Trust me you can contact me if you want a personal written reference because I understand ou babies are our family & most precious possessions and gifts from God. Thank you Pam for everything. Pam’s professionalism is above and beyond we could tell from the first five minutes of the interview that she was the one. She bought her little notebook. She wrote notes she asked questions she answered our questions. I’m telling you the others perspective sitters we interviewed couldn’t come close to the knowledge and ability the references that Pam has. So we knew right away who we were going to go with like within five minutes. We knew in five minutes Pam was who we were going to entrust our baby Coco to . Thx Rover…. if not for your sites or your app, we would’ve never found this wonderful woman thank you. She was a godsend to us.”
“Anabel did a fantastic job, I needed to find someone to stop in and feed my kittens for a last second trip and she came in cIutch! We even had a delay that caused us to return back the next day and she was able to accommodate adding some last second, emergency stops ins as well. Highly Highly Recommend!”

“Debbie has been great! We got a puppy on a whim a few days ago and when looking for a dog walker as we are trying to crate train, she came through with a quick response. We had a meet and greet within nearly 24hrs. She took notes and asked questions to ensure consistency for our pup! She had had great communication and shows enthusiasm for all her clients!

I cannot recommend Joanne highly enough. She has been incredibly reliable, caring, and attentive with my dog. Her professionalism, punctuality, and genuine love for animals gave me complete peace of mind. I always know my dog was safe, happy, and well cared for in her hands.
As always, Taylor was excellent with my two fur babies, even if one of them never came out from under the bed. The other one was always out and about and very much appreciated the extra love! When the litter-robot broke down, Taylor was in chat with me trying to get it working again, even tho I was half-way across the world. Extra kudos for going the extra mile!
Amanda was AMAZING with our cat! She was our savior last minute! She provided us with great photos, report card and communicated efficiently! She takes care of pets like they are her own! We felt at ease and never once had a doubt or drop of anxiety that lot of pet parents feel! Thank you Amanda!
Katie did a fantastic job caring for our two dogs. She was 100% reliable, prompt, and followed all of our instructions “to a T”. But most importantly, the dogs absolutely loved her — and that is saying a lot because they are both rescues (of course!) and our boy is actually very fearful and timid around new people. It was clear from the first meeting that Katie knows how to read canine body language and win over even scared or wary dogs. I felt totally comfortable leaving my babies in her capable hands, and she did not disappoint. She also assisted with the senior paraplegic foster dog we were caring for at the time of her visits, and was very capable of helping him to stand up and go potty using his special back-end lift harness, which can be a challenge for some people to get used to. In general, Katie went above and beyond and was super flexible and willing to accommodate our somewhat unusual needs. I wholeheartedly recommend her, as a loving, gentle, responsible and fully competent caretaker for dogs or cats of all ages, temperaments, and sizes. This is the pet sitter you want when only the best will do for your beloved four-legged family members!!
We used Kristine for the first time yesterday and could not be more pleased! She was punctual and very good with our dogs and was even kind enough to send us a picture of them doing well. I would highly recommend her to anyone wishing that their fur babies are taken such good care of!
Harmony was wonderful with our pup! He can be a little daunting at first with his big bark but that didn’t bother her at all. She was so sweet with him, and honestly we were so happy that we found someone who just instantly understood him. She let us know when she was on the way, when she arrived, and when she was headed out - couldn’t have asked for better communication, and we’re really excited that our pup will have a new friend! 100% recommend her! :)
