1. Anya G. S.

“I can't recommend Anya enough! They took amazing care of my fur babies while I was away. From the daily updates and adorable photos to the genuine love and attention they gave, I felt completely at ease knowing my babies were in good hands. Reliable, communicative, and kind—I'll definitely be booking with them again!”


2. Sherylee C.

“Sherry Lee did an amazing job. She stayed in our home over the holiday weekend and cared for Archie our two year old Cockapoo. She updated us constantly, sent photos and videos, and it was obvious how relaxed he was in his own routine even though we were away. We felt so comfortable and are already looking at additional dates for Sherrylynne to come stay and watch Archie. We highly recommend hiring Sherry Lynne to stay in your home and pet sit your furry friends.”


3. Emily H.

“Emily was great my little old man, rocky. She was patient with his walks and sent me pics to keep me updated. Will definitely be using her services again!”


4. Jonathan C.

“Jonathan was great with my fur baby! He was detail oriented and made sure Magnus’ needs were met! Definitely booking him again ! :)”


5. Alyssa C.

“Alyssa watched Odovacer overnight on our wedding day. With all the demands of the day, it was such a relief to not have to worry about his care arrangements. Alyssa is reliable and flexible and Odovacer is always excited when she comes by. She really is the best!”


6. Sasha M.


“Sasha did a wonderful job of keeping our anxious munchkins happy while we were away all week. It was so nice to get regular updates about their day and not have to worry about anything. She also left our house pristine, and was always easy to reach.”


7. Jon E.


“Jon was so great! He communicated consistently and cared for my cats and dogs as if they were his own. I loved receiving daily pictures and hearing how everyone was doing. He went above and beyond with his care for our pets and our home.”


8. Jay G.

“Great sitter! Sent me tons of pictures & updates. He took great care of my spoiled baby! So glad I’ve found a sitter I can trust!”




9. Marlita M.

“This is our third time booking Marlita and our cats adore her. She sends regular updates of pictures and videos everyday. We are happy to have found a reliable sitter who makes our cats happy while we are away. We will definitely be rebooking! Thanks for another job well done!”


10. Nathalia C.

“I was so nervous finding a new sitter for Bella since she can be a bit quirky. Nathalia was so sweet, kept me up to date on what they were doing, and sent great pictures. She went above and beyond for us! Thank you so much, we can’t wait for the next sit :)”


11. Megan C.

“We couldn’t be more pleased with our experience with Megan! She took wonderful care of our 11-week-old poodle puppy while we were away for ann evening. Communication with her was excellent from start to finish, and she was very easy to work with. Our puppy was happy and well-cared for when we returned, and we felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”


12. Nicole D.

“Nicole was the absolute best choice to watch our dog when we had to go out of town overnight. I was nervous to leave him but Nicole was super communicative, treated him like her own pup, and took excellent care of him. We feel SO much better knowing we have Nicole as an option for dog sitting when we go out of town.”


13. Jonny M.

“Jonny was absolutely pawsome! He treated our 1-year-old Golden Retriever, Ollie, like his own furry child. Not only did he keep us updated with plenty of Ollie pics (because, let’s be real, we’re obsessed), but he also made sure we felt totally relaxed with Ollie in his care. Highly, highly recommend Jonny – he’s top dog in our book, and we’ll definitely be calling him again! 🐾”


14. Molly M.

“Molly took such good care of our pups and our house as well. They were happy and relaxed when we got back and we were able to enjoy our trip knowing the dogs were being taken care of. Thanks Molly!”


15. Jestine S.

“Jestine was amazing! She took such good care of Stubs and the house and gave updates throughout the stay. Jestine is so thoughtful and sweet and truly understands the needs of animals. Highly recommend and will be booking her for future stays. Thanks!”


16. Keith L.

“Keith was wonderful at accommodating our last minute weekend house sitting request. It was our first time being away from our pup after only 3 weeks of ownership. We explained the situation to Keith, and he came over for a meet and greet. Our dog took to him right away and put our mind at ease. Keith is personable, respectful and a clear dog lover. We look forward to booking with him again.”


17. Katie & Zayn S.

“Katie and Zayn took great care of our dogs. They sent photos and updates of our dogs throughout their stay. We did not know them prior to their visit and selected them based on their past reviews on Rover. Those reviews are very accurate! We will definitely book them again and are very happy to trust our dogs and our home to their care.”


18. Deb G.

“Deb was amazing! She was great and communicative with our little frenchie who can be a little reactive and new to the neighborhood. Would go with Deb again in a heart beat!”


19. Sabrina M.
“Sabrina is so kind hearted and my dogs love her! She has a gentle touch, and my elderly pets loved having her for extra snuggles. My younger dogs are crazy, but Sabrina’s energy calms them down, and she is able to handle them without any fears on my end! I happily refer Sabrina to everyone!”


20. Jojo A.

“First I like the start of saying JoJo was amazing! They messaged me all kinds of updates and amazing photos. I definitely worry a lot about my fur baby when I’m away, and never had to worry the whole time JoJo was watching Brina. I will definitely be using them in the future!!!!!”
