“Isabella did a fantastic job!! there was disappointment in my dogs’s faces when they saw me walk through the door instead of her. I gave her five stars because I was not able to give her six! I would definitely use her again. Thank you Isabella for everything!”

“This is the second time Britney has house sit for us and both have been great experiences. Both my dogs are very happy to have her company when we are away and the house is always spotless when we get back.”

“Alex was great! We received tons of pictures and videos of Roxy while we were gone which was comforting as this was our first time using Rover. The house was the same as when we left it when we arrived home. Alex even went above and beyond by washing the sheets and towels she used while she was here before we returned home. There isn’t enough to say about how great this experience was! Thank you Alex! Roxy cannot wait to see you again soon :)”

“Eliza is the epitome of the perfect sitter - both professional and loving - prompt and responsive and also the "sit on the floor with the dogs" type. We are happy we trusted her with our boys!”


“I’m so grateful for the amazing care Garrett provided for my cat, Adele. He was attentive, responsible, and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Adel was clearly very well taken care of and comfortable, and I could tell she received a lot of attention and care. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

“Jalanie did an excellent job house-sitting for me and taking care of my dogs and my cat. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly gave them lots of love and attention while I was away. I came home to happy pets and a well cared for home. I would absolutely recommend her and plan to have her help again in the future!”

“My puppy & cat had a great time hanging out with Emma for the night! I was nervous leaving my puppy for the first time but Emma sent me updates and photos to help calm my nerves!”

“Patrick was absolutely amazing! He took wonderful care of both my cat and dog, staying overnight and making sure they were happy and comfortable the entire time. He sent fun videos and photos regularly, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. His communication was excellent—clear, timely, and thoughtful. I also came home to a house that was incredibly neat and tidy, which I really appreciated. I would highly recommend Patrick to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and attentive pet sitter. He’s truly fantastic!”

“We loved having Ariel watch our one year old pup! She treated our dog like her own and sent us daily updates during our trip. She also kept our dog on her usual schedule to help with adjusting as we had not left her for more than a night in the past. I would definitely recommend Ariel for your pet-sitting needs!”
“Jimmy was an excellent dog sitter reliable, caring, and great with my dogs. He kept me updated while I was away, and I came home to a happy, well cared for dog and house Highly recommend!”

“Mason is the best. We booked him to house sit for a long weekend and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. He was super kind and professional throughout the booking/meet and greet process. You can tell he has experience with large, intelligent, high energy breeds. My border collie mix and mini Aussie are chill natured but can be very hyper and he handled them very well when he first met them. His high level of care was super obvious throughout the stay. My dogs always looked happy in the daily updates and when one of my dogs unexpectedly had a seizure overnight, Mason stepped up and handled everything perfectly. I had full confidence in Mason and could clearly tell that he was taking care of my dogs as if they were his own. Having an emergency happen when you’re away is nobody’s ideal but Mason made us feel as comfortable with that as anyone could. When I got home, my house looked great and I can tell my dogs are happy and tired. Mason was clearly attentive to them. Can’t recommend him enough and will definitely book again.”
“Jessica was absolutely fantastic! She doted on our pupper Lucy and even volunteered to take our trash can to the curb on trash day. She was extremely reliable and gave us daily updates on how Lucy was doing with pictures. You're pup is in good hands with Jessica!”

About: I grew up in a house full of cats and dogs, so you could say I speak fluent “purr” and “woof.” At one point, we had six cats and two dogs—all under one roof! In my adult life, I’ve fostered 10 neonatal kittens (yes, 10!), and I foster-failed with two of them, Smokey and Frizzle, who you can read more about on my profile. I've also fostered two puppies!! I’ve got a talent for reading body language—whether it’s a tail flick from a cat or a happy wiggle from a dog. I’ll make sure your furry family members get exactly what they need: snuggles, playtime, long walks, or just some space to do their thing. And yes, I’ll keep the litter boxes spotless and happily scoop poop from the yard, too—no judgment here! Frizzle isn’t a fan of strangers, so I totally understand if your pets take a little time to warm up. Patience, respect, and care are my superpowers, and I bring them all to the table for every pet I meet. Oh, and I’m not doing this alone! My husband Oscar is part of the team, and he’s amazing with both cats and dogs. He was a hands-on foster dad to eight of our kittens and two puppies and has loads of experience caring for adult dogs. Together, we’re ready to handle overnight stays, drop-ins, or whatever your pets need. Rest assured, they’ll be in safe, loving hands with us! I work as an engineer with a flexible work-from-home schedule, which means I can easily accommodate drop-ins with your pet or overnight stays. My husband’s job is a bit less flexible, but he’s always happy to help with overnight stays and weekend drop-ins. Together, we make sure your pet gets the care and attention they deserve, no matter the day or time! I’ll follow your lead to ensure your pet gets the best care possible. During our meet-and-greet, I’ll ask about your preferences for feeding, walks, playtime, and more. I’ll also gather your vet’s information for any unlikely emergencies and learn about any quirks your pet may have. Your pet’s comfort and routine are my top priorities!
“Kira is an exceptional sitter. She took wonderful care of our home, but the best part was seeing how happy our dog, Raylan, was with her. She connected with him right away, and the beautiful photos and updates she sent were such a thoughtful and appreciated bonus. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such great hands. We will definitely be booking Kira for all our future pet sitting!”

“Dawn was incredible! We came home to two very happy, healthy, and well loved pups. I was unavailable to contact sometimes due to our trip and she was still very diligent in sending photos, videos, and updates! My larger pup has had some health scares and Dawn was very detailed in her notes and was willing to take her to the vet immediately upon a small change in behavior but waited for my input ☺️. I will definitely be reaching out to Dawn in the future for any of our needs. I’ve never felt so confident and comfortable in the care our dogs received. We got our honeymoon and our dogs got almost two weeks of spoiling! Not to mention that this was a last minute booking due to our other sitter canceling with less than a weeks notice for a 12 day trip!!”

Hannah did an amazing job pet sitting our 14-week-old Whippet! From the moment she walked through the door, it was obvious he was going to have fun with her, he liked her right away. Even with all the energy, puppy antics, and biting that come with a young Whippet, she jumped right in and quickly adapted to his needs. We felt completely confident that he was well cared for, exercised, and given lots of attention. It was clear she genuinely enjoys working with dogs, and our puppy had a great time with her. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for puppy and would not hesitate to book Hannah again!

Belle and her sister Olivia truly took great care of our little Chia. This was my first time using a rover and they were so attentive and loving with our girl. She has special instructions that they diligently followed and I felt so safe and relieved to see our dog comfortable and playful. 🩷

Haley is an astute and caring person. She has experience with high energy dogs which is exactly what my pup needed. I came home to a very calm dog and she didn’t get diarrhea like she has in the past with other house sitters. I am so grateful for Haley for providing such a great service, Xena and I really appreciate it!!!!!!

Sherri did a wonderful job watching our dog, Lucy. She sent sweet videos and pictures throughout the stay and kept us updated, which was great while we were away. She also made sure the house was nice and tidy, and even took out the trash for us. Sherri was very patient when meeting Lucy and brought her some snacks to help her feel comfortable (which Lucy loved!). We would absolutely recommend Sherri and would happily book with her again!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Comfort as my dog sitter, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. She was incredibly attentive and took great care of my dog, ensuring he was well-fed, walked, and happy. Comfort kept me updated throughout her stay, sending me regular messages and photos that truly put my mind at ease. Additionally, she treated my home with respect, leaving everything in perfect order. I highly recommend Comfort to anyone looking for a responsible and caring dog sitter!

Kira is fantastic. She is super responsive & I trust her with my two big doodles! Kira watched my dogs for Memorial Day weekend and stayed at my house. She is responsible and trustworthy! Kira communicated her schedule for the weekend ahead of time and gave me a heads up so I’m aware of when she is at the house / needs to step out for other drop ins, which is so appreciated! She checked in everyday and gave me a summary of their day & provided photos. I didn’t think twice about the boys while on vacation, because I knew they were in good hands! Thank you so much!

Caroline took excellent care of our dogs and our home. At our meet and greet she was attentive and detailed. During the sit she communicated daily, followed care instructions, and treated our pups like her own. Home was left tidy and doggos very happy. We happily recommend Caroline and would book with her again.
Alison was great! She was so communicative with us. This was our first time leaving our baby with someone else and from the start she just had qualities that made me feel better about doing so. She asked all good questions, was super timely, and overall I was left without any concerns! Thank you Alison for taking such good care of our girl! Our pup is very young right now and can be quite a handful, but Alison seemed to have handled her very well. Would definitely recommend her to anyone.
