“Malcolmn was amazing and made my trip so peaceful. He sent many pictures a day with detailed notes on their day. I really appreciate the job he’s done”


“Alexa was a very thoughtful, thorough, and kind sitter. She followed all the house rules and Nala rules. She left our home better than when we came back. We will definitely hire her again.”


“My Dog Dottie loved Ava! Dottie has tons of energy and Ava spoiled her with long walks and lots of dog park trips. I felt so relieved that my pup was in great hands. Ava sent lots of pictures and updates and left the house nicer than she found it. The best! Already booking her again”


“Laurel was AMAZING!!! Our dogs had the best care and we received updates and pictures the whole time we were gone! We feel so lucky to have found Laurel and would love to have her dog sit again in the future! :)”


“This was our first time using Rover for house sitting and it was worth it! Taryn is so sweet, she kept us updated on our pets and sent us plenty of pictures. We had a meet and greet prior to booking but of course my pets loved her! I knew my babies were in the best hands and look forward to booking with Taryn again! ?”


“Travis is a fantastic pet sitter. He watched my puppy, my bigger, older dog, and my cat while I was in Detroit for a weekend getaway. This is my second time using Rover as my first time did not go well and now I usually am too afraid to trust anyone else with my animals. I was kept updated (but not too much) and I can tell by their mannerisms that they were well cared for. I am planning on using Travis’s services again later this summer when I’ll be gone for ten days. He is a kind, empathetic, and considerate pet sitter.”


“David takes such great care of our two dogs! I can always tell they are very well taken care of and he sends lots of pictures and videos. I highly recommend him!”


“Rob did an amazing job housesitting for us, he was great with our fur baby and kept the house immaculate. He even did more things that we did not ask him nor expect him to do. Highly recommend his services, we were very happy knowing our house and pup were left in good hands! Thanks a lot Rob!”


“Andrew is a godsend. We've had him to sit for our Rhodesian ridgeback and our Staffy twice, for 4 days and 10 days, respectively, and we have both times come back to 2 happy and healthy dogs, who looked at us like we had only been gone a short while. They had neither gained stress weight nor become too skinny, and we could tell Andrew had been diligent taking them out frequently. He had mixed in their favorite food toppers and given them their medicine as we asked. He is a kind person, and you can tell he thinks deeply about things, and people's and pets' feelings. He even swept and tidied up, got our mail from our mailbox, and had our packages all neatly inside. He is as the proverb says, a good traveler who leaves no mark, leaving our house exactly as, if not better than, he found it. I can't say enough about the peace of mind Andrew has given us, especially the second time, since we already knew we could trust him. We were able to go to Disney World and have a truly magical time because we knew he was caring for our dogs and our house as we would have done.”

“Moria was awesome! We got a lot of pictures and they were clearly thoughtful and considerate of our space.”


“Very happy with Daniela as a pet/house sitter while we were overseas for 2-weeks. We don’t speak a common language, but my pets don’t speak English or Spanish either, so I wasn’t gonna let a language barrier be the sole reason to not hire someone. We used an audio translator app during the meet & greet, and most apps/ txt auto translate. I did provide an emergency contact of a bi-lingual friend. Thankfully we didn’t need to involve her. At the meet & greet, we practice giving my anxious cat’s oral tablet medication with dry kibble, and she was pretty good at it within a couple tries. Reassured me she would be able to administer when we’re gone. She sent regular photos/updates of our pets which always makes us happy and comfortable while traveling. We even had some HVAC issues while we were away, and Daniela was a trooper the whole time. Twice she helped coordinate a technician coming to the house since we couldn’t be there. She left the house very clean, trash taken out, bed made. Brought all our mail in. Watered the few plants we asked. Etc. I hope she’s available next time we travel. Thank you!”


About: I have taken care of many different personalities of cats and small dogs since I was growing up. I appreciate their character and would love to meet your family pet. I work from home, also flex, so I would be able to pop in during the morning, lunch and afternoon if need be. I am flexible to the needs of your family and believe in clear communication. I would appreciate a quick meeting with you and your fur baby so I can see how you would like everything provided. It can be as detailed as you like, I take diligent notes to ensure everything per your standards.

“I'm so grateful to Niyah for dogsitting my Mouche while I was away for the weekend. She communicated promptly, showed up when she said she would, sent me pictures of Mouche, and left my house in perfect condition. Her calm energy and patience was exactly what my dog needed. I would hire her again in a heartbeat.”


“Vanessa is a wonderful sitter. My pets loved her, she noticed little things about my dogs that show how much attention she was showing them. She is a great communicator and sent a lot of photos during the stay.”


About: Hello! I work remotely, therefore I am always home. Your dog will not be left unattended. I also have a flexible cancellation policy. I know life can be crazy! I am the ultimate dog lover and will treat your dog like family. I keep my dog healthy with lots of snuggles and daily walks. Your dog will receive that same care that my Fur baby receives. I can also accommodate more than one pet; the more the merrier. You can call any time to check on your baby. I am always available to talk. I have a big fenced yard and a cozy home. Your dog will always be welcomed on my lap and couch. ❤️ Since I work from home full time I have lots of time to hang out with the dogs in my yard. They are like my little coworkers! I usually take the dogs on 2 walks a day but if you have a preference on more or less, I can do that. How do I ensure your dog is safe during their visit? I have a small friendly chihuahua. He loves making new friends and sharing his toys. My yard is treated monthly for fleas and ticks (All pet friendly treatments). The yard is secure with a tall fence and no gaps. My dog is up to date with his vaccines. Please let me know if your furbaby has a set schedule if not they will follow our routine. They get plenty of supervised play time and potty breaks throughout the day. I regularly vacuum and mop my house. All furniture also gets vacuumed daily. I use pet friendly flea prevention methods inside and outside my house. We get our house and yard professionally treated to avoid ticks and fleas. But I ask that you also keep your pet on flea preventatives. All dogs that come in must be vaccinated. Please do not bring your pup if they are showing any symptoms. (Runny stools, coughing, runny nose)

Guadalupe R.
“Lupe has watched my pets over the past couple of years. I can always count on her to take care of my pets well in my home. My cats could be a bit shy with strangers but they were able to warm up to Lupe fast. They feel at home when she takes care of them, which is a relief when I am away. In addition, she keeps me updated daily with pictures and any important info every time. I highly recommend her ❤️”

“Christine S is one of few individuals that I can honestly say is the very epitome of kindness. She is also the only person I trust with watching my dog when I need someone to. The relationship she has with her dog, chocolatè, can only be described as a motherly loving relationship. The bonds she builds with both people and animals are both amazing and a mystery. I believe the bonds she builds with both pets and people is a trait, all owners of pets, including myself, should aspire to obtain and develop.”
