We have had 10+ sitters and a ton of visits through rover and Joe was hands down our favorite so far. We had two senior dogs who need a lot of assistance and have a lot of meds to take. Joe came over and met them before hand and was so patient gaining our dogs trust and getting to know them. He brought in our packages that came, took such good care of them and gave so many great updates. He made our long weekend away so good knowing they were in great hands. 10/10 recommend him for going above and beyond :)

Dani is amazing!! Our puppy fell in love with her immediately; she is so sweet to our fur baby. On top of that, she is extremely knowledgeable about anything and everything we need to know about raising our puppy to be well trained and happy. It is so easy to go to work knowing our pup is in the best possible hands. Thank you, Dani!

Natalie is an exceptional sitter who will go above and beyond for you! I was out of town for two weeks, and she dropped in to check on my three cats every day. She informed me ahead of time if she had to come late. I used pine litter and she also helped sift the litter a few times while I was gone. She even took in my Amazon packages and took the trash out for me, which I wasn't expecting from a sitter! Overall, she gave me peace of mind during my travels and I would book her again in the future.

Rochelle is the ideal pet sitter. We have two dogs, one of them is just over a year old and still has the puppy mentality. In other words, he chews stuff up. If I check in on them via our dog camera I can see messes he makes. Rochelle always cleans them up! She really is great. Follows the instructions to a T. Sends pictures and report cards. Brings in packages. So happy we found her!

Jennifer has been an absolute gem with our pups. She’s reliable, communicative, and clearly genuinely cares about the dogs in her care. We always get thoughtful updates and come home to happy, well-looked-after dogs. She’s upfront about her schedule, easy to coordinate with, and goes the extra mile to make sure everything is squared away. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter.

This is the second time Rachel has cat sit for me and she does such an amazing job. Between sending me an abundance of pictures, playing with my cats, cleaning up any mess they made, and making sure all their robots are working accordingly, I feel extremely comfortable leaving my boys in her care. 10/10, will book again 🐈‍⬛ 💕 🐈‍⬛

Heaven did an amazing job keeping my cat Kali company while I was gone! I was nervous about leaving her for a couple of days, but Heaven kept me updated whenever she checked on her, which gave me the reassurance I needed. She was also flexible with dropping off the keys to my place once I got back. I highly recommend her, she obviously cares a lot about animals!

Olivia is so great with our boys and our home! Our standoffish cats both come out to see her every time she visits. She is very communicative with us about how they’re doing and takes initiative with things like vacuuming litter and washing their food bowls. We never have to worry about our boys when we are on trips because we know she takes such excellent care of them.

Third time booking with Bailee. Harlow was healthy and happy upon return. She wasn’t super anxiously excited to see us after a long trip. Proof Bailee provided the best care. Super relieved to have found such a reliable/trustworthy sitter in the Houston area!
