1. Kira D.

“Kira was great with our puppy and two cats. She stayed at the house for 3 nights while we were away and was very clean and courteous. She asked great questions, and sent pictures too. We would love to have her back in the future.”


2. Katherine T.

“Bella was happy and safe, which made me very happy. It was great to know that I didn’t have to worry about my dog all day when I was attending a funeral.”


3. Jen N.

“We met Jen prior to her staying with our cat, Buddy and we knew she would be perfect. She was attentive, asked questions and she made us feel comfortable about watching Buddy. Jen sent photos and videos while we were gone and never left a doubt that she was the right choice to stay with our cat. We will certainly have her back.”


4. Kylie-Jean S.
“Kylie has been caring for my dog, hazel, periodically for the past 6 months. Sometimes she takes her on walks when I’m away from the house for too long. She also has pet sat for me when I went away for a weekend. She’s always very responsible and puts my dogs need at top priority. She asks questions to ensure she takes the best care of hazel and attends to her needs. She’s treats my hazel like she’s her own when she’s with her and I feel good knowing that. I highly recommend her.”

7. Heather M.

“It’s hard to go away when you have a senior dog who is arthritic, deaf and can’t see. It’s a huge comfort to know that he and our other pup are being looked after by someone as caring as Heather. She is the best!”


8. Katelyn W.

“Katelyn took great care of our pets (dog and 2 cats) and our house when we went away. She came to our house to meet them and us before our trip, sent us photos while we were away, and left our house very clean. We would definitely use her again!”


9. Jayme B.
“Jayme is an exceptionally caring and attentive pet sitter. She has given my dogs the extra attention and patience that they require. I have two rescue dogs, one of which is nervous around new people and slow to warm up. This was no problem for jayme, and the 2 were soon fast friends. In addition, Jayme is highly reliable and a great communicator.”


10. pauline g.

“We had Pauline step in when our other rover person had to cancel last minute. Pauline was amazing! I didn’t worry once while I was away. She looked after my Labrador and Main Coon cat. My house was exactly how I left it when I got back. Pauline was great at sending me videos and pictures of my fur babies while she was pet sitting. We love Pauline and will definitely be booking her again. I actually think my pets would’ve preferred more time with her ? A big thank you from Austin and Twyla but a special thanks from Goose ?*woof* and Hubble ? *meow*”


11. Bianca G.

“Bianca did an excellent job not only caring for Oscar, but also completing a few chores we needed done as part of the house sitting agreement. We were very pleased and would highly recommend!”


12. Melanie M.

“Highly recommend! It takes a leap of faith to have someone stay in your home but Melanie was super transparent and communicative. She reached out when things weren’t going perfectly so we could come to resolutions together, which really built trust. Our lil doggo was happy and healthy when we got home after 9 days.”


13. Garrett F.

“Garrett was so wonderful! My girl loved him immediately and I left knowing she was in incredible hands. Garrett was so responsive and asked such great questions to make sure all information was covered. I will definitely book again!”


14. Brandon C.

“Brandon was fantastic! He watched our dog at our house while we were away for 5 days. He sent lots of photos and updates, and he also asked questions about our dog’s routine and behavior to make sure she was doing ok. We will definitely contact him again next time we’re looking for a dog sitter!”


15. Kristen M.

“Kristen was great. Good communication and sent lots of pics. She left the house clean and even took the sheets off the bed. I will definitely use Kristen again.”

17. Matt S.

“I needed a house and dogsitter for a week with very short notice due to a death in the family. Matt came over within 14 hours of me reaching out. He stayed at my house and took care of my two dogs for 8 days. He left the house exactly as I did. He sent me multiple photos and updates each day and was good to my dogs. Appreciate it.”
