“Megan was amazing! I will definitely be using her again in the future and will recommend her to others! She is very reliable, showed up on time, and most importantly is great with my dogs and made sure they were more than well taken care of. She sent regular updates with photos. Definitely book with her!”


“We are so happy to have found Faith. Both of our pups took to her right away. She met with all of us prior to our first booking. She had smart questions to get to know their routines and norms. Our pups loved her immediately. I have peace of mind knowing she will attend to my girls on days that my husband and I are away from home all day for work.”


“Katie was so sweet and very compassionate with my cat Maddox. We met in person prior to the drop in visits and I could tell immediately she was trustworthy and an animal lover. I would definitely recommend her to other people for all sitting needs. Wonderful person, very communicative, and overall a great pet sitter I would definitely rebook her to care for Maddox in the future!”



“We are new to the area and don't leave our cats very much, and Melissa was lovely. She consistently checked in with our cats at the same time every day and they really enjoyed playing with her. One of our cats doesn't interact with new people and she takes medication with her food, and Melissa respected her space but also checked on her when I asked to make sure she was okay (she's on the older side). All of our cats have very different personalities, and it was clear that Melissa appreciated all of them for who they are! We knew they were well taken care of while we were away.”


“Jessica is, hands down, the best pet sitter I’ve ever had. Rover.com is a great service, but using it can feel like picking from a box of chocolates—you never know what you’re going to get. I’ve had sitters who barely interacted with my dogs and spent most of the visit on their phone. But Jessica was a completely different experience. From the moment we met for the meet-and-greet, I felt her warm, nurturing energy and knew she was the right fit for my boys. She went above and beyond—sending amazing photos of my happy pups and providing a detailed update on how they were doing and what they did together. My dogs absolutely loved her, and it showed. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.”


“Went on a week long trip and couldn't be happier coming home! She took care of our cats wonderfully, got pictures each day and little notes of how they were doing. Felt so at ease knowing our babies were getting taken care of. Will definitely rebook for next trip!”
