I can’t recommend Marissa enough! She took incredible care of my two cats and my home while I was away. She sent thoughtful updates and adorable photos every day, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my girls were happy, loved, and well cared for. When I got home, my house was spotless and exactly as I had left it. It’s clear she is dependable, respectful, and truly cares about both the pets and the homes she’s entrusted with!

Christine is the best! We were gone for 6 days, and she handled all of our dogs quirky and lovable obsessions. Also we had an unusual home and yard issue which she helped us with. House was just like we left it but, “a much happier place when we returned. A lot of dog loving going on. Jinx , our 16 yr old border collie told us she will miss her until the next time.

Kody is so great with our dog. From our meet-and-greet, we could tell he would be great! He’s very attentive and loving to our dog. He came to watch our dog at our house. He sent updates and photos throughout and left our place spotless. He was great with going medication. We have already made plans for our next petsitting with Kody. We are glad we found him!

Caroline was wonderful! She stayed at our house with our cats, and we felt so comfortable knowing they were in such good hands. Our kitties can be a little shy, but they absolutely loved her. She sent lots of sweet updates and photos, watered our plants, and left the house spotless. She was communicative, thoughtful, and went above and beyond. We’d be so happy to have her stay with them again!

Erin took great care of our cat and dog (and our house!) and sent regular updates while we were on vacation. Our usually shy cat warmed up to her right away. Our dog was having some mild tummy issues before we left and she kept us updated on that as well. Great sitter, would definitely have her look after our pets again!

She was able to work with my reactive puppy (he can be a lot) and did some training even! He seemed calmer when I came back which was a good sign that he was comfortable with her while I was gone.

We had a fantastic experience with Amelia’s in home visit! She arrived exactly on time, which gave us total peace of mind. We loved getting the photo updates while we were away, and she left everything perfectly clean and tidy. Our pup was so well taken care of—we will definitely be booking Amelia again!

Tellulah was great! She house sat and watched my 4 year old and 4 month old puppy Shih Tzus. I came back to a clean house and the dogs were happy and well taken care of. She communicated well and was responsive any time I reached out. Would definitely use her again. Thank you Tellulah!

Gavin stayed at our house for 10 days and took wonderful care of our two dogs and cat. Each requires daily meds, and he administered them flawlessly. They were happy, healthy, and relaxed when we returned. He was proactive and communicative, and it felt great to know our animals were in good hands while we were gone. He also handled an unexpected exterminator visit, offered to stay an extra night when we thought a flight delay would keep us from getting home, and left the house tidy. Would highly recommend booking with Gavin!

Caroline always does her best to balance and schedule her time to make sure our dog is well taken care of. Even with other commitments she makes time for extra walks and treats so our dog is never waiting for a potty break or snack while she's out. She's resilient and quick on her feet when things are unpredictable and messy. If the situation requires a bath, she's got it covered. She's been able to adjust as our dog has become more comfortable leading to our dog trying to test boundaries with her like she's part of the family.

We feel very fortunate to have had Emily caring for our dog while we were away. They went on walks together & we received photos everyday-our pup was clearly happy and we could tell she liked Emily the first time they met. Emily was also very respectful of our home & helped take care of our plants, too. We’d love to hire her again.

Zoe is everything you want in a dogsitter. First of all she clearly loves dogs. She spent time just chilling with my three dogs, walking, lounging, and relaxing outside. She was concerned with their care, asked many questions, and was respectful of our routines. The dogs were happy and calm when I arrived home. Communication was great before and during the sit. She also left the house spotless, even washing the sheets and remaking the bed. I highly recommend Zoe for dogsitting and would book her again myself without hesitation.

Mary was a dream sitter for us and our pitty mix Juniper. We booked her to house/pet sit for us while we were out of the country for almost 2 weeks. Obviously, being away from your pet and home for that long can be a bit nerve-racking, but as soon as we met Mary we knew that they were in really good hands. Mary was very happy and willing to get to know each other on a video call, and then come by to meet Juniper and get the run-down for the house before the sit began, which we really appreciated. Once we were on our trip Mary sent frequent photos and updates and was always responsive via text and the Rover app. She really made it easy to fully enjoy our trip with the peace of mind that everything was taken care of at home. I would definitely recommend Mary to others in need of house and pet sitting help.
