“Aine and Jared (and Fionn their lovely pup) were just wonderful with Nala! They were super flexible with pickup and drop off and very responsive throughout the entire stay! They sent us photos and videos and ongoing updates and we received a happy dog that loved her stay there! Thank you guys again and I’m sure we’ll be back for our next getaway!”
“Anna watched my dog and cat for over two weeks and I’m so grateful that she was their pet sitter. Her and her husband are compassionate and accommodating so they went above and beyond to make sure my needy cat and my timid dog felt comfortable and had everything they needed. My dog rarely forms bonds with new people but she did with Anna, which spoke to how caring and gentle Anna is! I highly recommend Anna and have told all my pet parent friends about how great of an experience my pets had and how much peace of mind I had while away. Anna is kind, knowledgeable, diligent, and thoughtful - all of the qualities you’d want in a trusted sitter!”
“Elijah was amazing! He took excellent care of my pups, ensuring their special diet and medication needs were met. When I picked them up, they were happy and looked fantastic. Thank you again for taking such great care of them!”
“Fabulous sitter! Trustworthy, kind, and great communication. I knew my super-senior dog with impaired mobility was in good hands. Gail sent regular updates and photos and was flexible with drop off and pickup. Would definitely book with her again. <3”

“Nancy and Colton were AMAZING with Koko! Pictures everyday, updates on how my Pomeranian was doing, and I can tell from the pictures alone that our Koko was so ecstatic and happy while we were out of town. I have officially made her Kokos new bestie and so happy to find her on here! THANK YOU NANCY & COLTON!”
“We had an outstanding experience with Alex & Monica watching our golden retriever, Aspen. We last minute needed someone to watch our pup for the weekend, and right from the beginning, it was clear they were intentional and genuinely caring in their approach. I included a care guide, and they clearly took the time to read through it and thoughtfully incorporate the information into Aspen’s daily routine. They took her on multiple walks and runs, brought her along to the farmer’s market, and sent frequent photo updates that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was also clear that Aspen received lots of attention and care throughout her stay because our pup looked happy, relaxed, and well-loved in every update. We’re incredibly grateful for Alex & Monica and would love to have Aspen stay with them again. Highly, highly recommend!”
“We had an amazing experience getting a last minute booking with Lily. She quickly arranged for a meet and greet for Goose and sent pics during his entire stay. Looking forward to booking her again asap!”

“Although we hate to leave our dog behind when we travel, we love leaving her in the hands of Camryn. We know our dog will get plenty of love, attention, and everything she needs during her time away from us. Camryn is a great communicator and sends photos to keep us updated on how our dog is doing so we never have to worry. Thank you again Camryn!”
“Madeline was a great sitter. My little girl was nervous and not too happy with me for leaving her for a week but Madeline did everything she could to make Olive comfortable and happy. She was communicative and responsive. By the end of Olive’s stay she was feeling right at home! Thank you!”
“Ryan was a fantastic sitter for our dog Izzy. She’s extremely professional and followed all of our care instructions perfectly. She’s timely with communication and keep us updated throughout the stay with photos/videos/written updates. She gave us back a tired and happy pup! Would love to work with Ryan again in the future!”
“Stephanie and Glenn were such wonderful doggie caregivers for our pup, Frankie. It was Frankie's first time staying with someone on Rover and they made it so comfortable! They were so kind and welcoming to her, and it was very easy to arrange the drop off and pick up. I highly recommend them!”
“So grateful to have found Gabriel and Savannah! So communicative and lots of updates and photos during Charlie’s stay. This was my second time booking with them and when we arrived at their home and Charlie saw Gabriel he started crying with excitement and couldn’t wait to jump out of the car to see him! He definitely enjoys his time with them and their pup! Thank you both so much.”
“Sarah took excellent care of our Jackson while we were away. Her communication was great, and she sent the kids photos of our pup when they were missing him. We will definitely use Sarah again, the next time we need a sitter!”

Lauren took care of our 13 year old dog Kona for two weeks - she sent frequent photos and updates and we could tell that Kona was happy and well taken care of. We will be repeat customers. Five stars!!
Denise was awesome! She sent updates and photos throughout Bentley’s stay which made me comfortable and reassured. Bentley seemed to enjoy her large backyard to play in.
Gail is a wonderful pet sitter who takes care of Ori with genuine love and attention. Ori always comes home happy and relaxed, and we can tell he’s had a great time—especially playing with her sweet dog Quinn, whom he adores. We feel completely at ease knowing Gail is caring for our pup like one of her own.
Hannah was great! Good communication and flexibility. My dog came home very happy. Will use her again.
Ashley was amazing with our dog Maggie. We were gone for 10 days and we got multiple updates throughout the day. Our dog is a senior dog, she usually sleep all day, and she got along great with Ashley’s dog. They were best friends. I would use Ashley again!
We left our 7 month old puppy with Elijah for 2.5 weeks while we were overseas. Elijah happily accommodated our request for a second meet and greet to familiarise Molly with his home. He is kind and Molly was well cared for. We came back to a happy and healthy puppy! Thank you Elijah for taking such good care of our girl.
Daniela took wonderful care of our mini poodle, Lucy! She was communicative, kind, and kept us updated with lots of photos and videos. Lucy had such a great time with her and her dog. it’s clear she felt right at home. We’ll definitely have Lucy stay with Daniela again!
Piper has now stayed with Anna a few times and it’s been a great experience for both Piper and me! Anna is so attentive to Piper and provides her with a fun safe space to go while I’m gone! I have so much peace of mind knowing Piper is in such good hands
Our dog was very well taken care of. We received regular updates and photos. Our pup always looked very comfortable.
Dana took great care of Poppy and was awesome for letting me book on such short notice! It was only for one night but he made time to take her on a walk and send update photos, will definitely be reaching out to him again in the future.
Savannah & Sebastián are the absolute BEST dogsitters in Austin. I've used a number of great sitters in the past, but their level of personal care and communication with me was amazing. My pup can get overwhelmed in big groups but lonely on her own, so I was thrilled that they had a sweet pup of their own that quickly became best friends with my dog. Highly HIGHLY recommended!
Kelly was incredible! Chili didn’t want to leave when I came to pick her up. I also had to extend the stay one more night and Kelly was more than gracious with helping out. Could not be more thankful and highly recommend her
Addi took great care of our dog! She was very sweet, sent lots of pictures and went above and beyond. Would highly recommend!!
AMAZING experience with Tracy. She was super communicative, took great care of Ella, and sent us pictures throughout the week. She was also very flexible with us through plane delays and stayed connected the entire time. Cannot recommend enough!
Rachel and Justin were proactive and great communicators sending updates on Lady’s wellbeing throughout her stay! They kept to her medication schedule, ensured she was eating her meals on schedule, and followed care instructions as she established home away from home for the week. Great experience!
Evan sends photo updates, is patient and caring, and goes above and beyond in his service! My dog loves him so much that she now stops by his door when we pass to try and say hi!
Audrey is absolutely amazing! Equal parts professional, loving, and responsive as a dog sitter. She truly seeks adventure for the pups every day, and they come home tired but SO content. She sends photos and videos frequently, is quick to respond, and deeply cares about the dogs she’s looking after. She worked with my dogs on some basic commands and has an impressive way of getting the pack to respond. My dogs can’t wait for another Audrey adventure!
Would definitely recommend Paige! Good communication and flexibility. Gave updates throughout my dog’s stay. He came home very happy. Will use her again
