“Sammi was absolutely perfect! She takes this job very seriously and was prepared with the right questions and set expectations early. Her communication is flawless and she provided tons of pictures and videos! We would recommend her to anyone without hesitation.”
“Renee went above and beyond to make sure my baby was healthy and happy! Would recommend her to anyone who wants peace of mind while they’re out of town!”
“Daniel took such great care of our 2 dogs while we were away! He was very communicative, competent and super sweet to our pups. We would definitely recommend his services!”
“Ariel was wonderful from beginning at Meet & Greet to our return. Great communication, fantastic pictures. Lexi, Luna, Leia & Theta are healthy & happy - and our home is very clean! Our quick trip out of town was seamless & worry free. Highly recommend!”
“Zosha did great with breck and was very respectful in my home! We already have another stay in the books! Confidently recommend Zosha for your pet sitting.”
“Ashley was fantastic with our high energy, 1 year old German Shepard mix (Lola). She house-sat for us from Thursday through Monday. As a Rover sitter myself, I have a high standard for the people that watch and care for my dog. I was a little unsure since she was just getting started on the platform and didn’t have a lot of reviews, but we are really glad we gave her a chance. Her schedule was somewhat limited some of the days we needed her, but she was transparent ahead of time and proactive about offering/working out arrangements with her family to drop in while she wasn’t around. Her dad was amazing as well and Lola got plenty of exercise and attention and wasn’t alone for long at all! Ashley was kind, respectful and responsible and treated our house with a lot of care. She paid attention to all our instructions, and Lola really seemed to barely miss us at all. Ashley also has a passion for photography and took a bunch of great photos. We have already begun discussing our next trip and if she can stay with Lola again!”
“Toshiko took great care of our critters, with thorough communication and cute photos. She made our time away so much easier. Thank you, Toshiko!”
“Christina is amazing! I would highly recommend her to anyone. She is kind, warm, responsible, a fantastic communicator… the list goes on. My family was away for a week from our elderly sick pup and our newer pup and she not only handled it well - she probably did better than we do! We will use her again and hope to see her again just because she’s that great!”
“Aly was fantastic! She watched my 5 month old puppy (and my home) for 5 days. She was super communicative with updates and pictures, and I can tell my dog had a great time! Bonus - the house was spotless when I got home. I would absolutely book Aly as a pet/house sitter again!”
“Mya did a great job taking care of my dog Winnie. She was communicative and sent lots of fun pictures. I would absolutely trust her to watch Winnie again!”
“Jackson sat for our dog over Spring Break for a week and took excellent care of him. My dog ordinarily is suspicious of men and keeps his guard up for quite a while before he trusts a male visitor to our house. But Jackson is a true dog whisperer, because they were playing tug o war and fetch within 10 minutes of their first meeting! Jackson left our home in great condition and was polite and communicative throughout. We appreciated receiving photos and videos during the week that provided peace of mind. Would definitely recommend this responsible and lovely young man.”
“Korrey did a wonderful job taking care of our German Shepherd Quincy and hound mix Sydney while we were on vacation for a week. Sydney is a little skittish towards new people, but she warmed right up to Korrey - he has very calm energy. Korrey administered several medications for the dogs and also picked up the dog poop in the backyard. He followed all instructions, sent a few pictures, and I never had any issues getting in touch with him. I was nice to be on vacation and not have to worry about our pups at all!”
“Vanessa was great with my high need cat. She can administer meds without issue. She went above and beyond and stayed longer with my cat since my flight was getting in late. I highly recommend Vanessa!”
“Sai stayed in our home and cat-sat our attention-addicted cat for 12 days. During this time, he gave our girl a lot of love, made sure she had all her needs met, and was responsive to any messages we sent him. Sai is trustworthy and professional. We would absolutely ask him to cat-sit for us again!”
“This was our first time leaving our 2 rescue pups overnight and Whitney went above and beyond to make sure both they and we were comfortable! Her pictures and updates immediately put us at ease and we knew they were in good hands. We could tell from the moment we met Whitney that she's a bit of a "dog whisperer" - our pups are quite high maintenance and she was truly fantastic with them. Thank you Whitney!”
“Sjoribel was a great sitter for Yoshi! She was super communicative, sent a bunch of pictures, and the house looked great when I got home. 10/10 would recommend for dogsitting!”
“Sjocelin did a great job with our dogs!”
“Tori is a great dog sitter. She clearly communicates her schedule, shows up on time, sends great updates, follows care instructions (complicated for senior dogs), and treats our pups like gold. We’re very grateful. Thank you, Tori!”
“Katie is so absolutely lovely, our dog Stega adored her. Katie did an incredible job getting Stega out of her shell and making her feel safe while we were out of town. Katie was responsive, respectful, knowledgeable, easy to communicate with, and Stega immediately took to her. Stega is not the easiest dog to win over, so we were very grateful that she had such a warm, playful, and approachable personality. Katie also took lots of pictures, which we loved. Excited to have her back next time we travel without our beloved pup!”
“Natalie was so good with my little rescue buddy! Flexible, attentive, and very in tune with what a pet owner wants to know when they leave their fur baby, as she owns pets herself and knows what it’s like. My dog seemed very comfortable with her and loooved his walks and cuddles. I felt confident leaving him in her hands. Would definitely use her again!”

Olivia took excellent care of our two golden-doodles, including giving daily medications and calming them during 4th of July fireworks. She shared daily photos of our pups while they were out and about on walks or lounging in the backyard. We could tell by our dogs' demeanors upon our return home that they were in good hands while we were away. We look forward to hiring Olivia again!
Sammi is great! Steady communication, happy dogs. The house was so clean when we came home, it was impressive. We will definitely reach out to Sammi next time we need a sitter for our dogs.
Katherine was wonderful and our dog clearly loved her, base on the numerous photos we received of him smiling on walks. She is a great communicator and was prompt and reliable. I highly recommend this sitter!
Jackson was an awesome sitter for our pup! He provided regular updates, was respectful of our home and very responsive. We would absolutely have him watch our dog again 🙂
We are so grateful for Seth's help! He was great. Very kind, strong communication, and we felt at ease leaving our pup with him for the night! Thanks again!!!
Mikaela was awesome, especially as we were nervous given it was the first time we were leaving our 8 month old. She gave frequent updates and photos and helped make us feel at ease
Ashley was absolutely wonderful with Coco while we were away. She kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, gave us peace of mind, and followed all of Coco’s routines perfectly. It was clear from every update that Coco was happy, relaxed, and loved. She even stayed flexible with timing and made sure everything was smooth until we got back. We are so grateful for her care and would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and attentive sitter!
Thanks again for taking care of the dogs in the midst of a heat wave and storms, and for the great pics. Much appreciated!
Brooke did a great job dogsitting for my Frenchie on short notice. We’ll definitely be looking to book her in the future again, especially given her reliability.
Juliette was very responsive, prompt, helpful and flexible. My 98 year old mom was hospitalized. And Juliette provided peace of mind when my mom's discharge was pending and everything got very complicated. She graciously offered to help me move some boxes so the oxygen company could deliver and she was flexible when everything got delayed.
Daniel took great care of our Bernedoodle, Dolly, during our weeklong trip away. He communicated well and kept the house in excellent shape. When we arrived home, Dolly seemed relaxed, happy and tired — all signs that she got good exercise and care while we were gone. We hope to book him again for future travels.
There’s just no one else I would consider leaving my kitties with! Lyudmila is amazing, communicative, proactive, caring, responsible, and just wonderful. When my flight was delayed coming home, she right away asked if she needed to go back to make sure my two cats wouldn’t be alone overnight! She sends so many pictures and videos and every time I come home, my kitties are relaxed and happy from having such caring company. Highly recommend!
Alston loved on our boys, and kept us in the know with everything. Which was good because one of our dogs has a spinal chord issues that acted up.
Kylee was very good about updating us throughout the stay with the dogs and responded quickly to any communications. The dogs loved her!
Korrey housesat for us over a few days and once again took incredible care of our dog, Luna, and cat, Mr. Pickles. We came home to happy, well loved pets and a clean home. This is the third time we’ve booked Korrey and he’s our go to person whenever we need help with them. We highly recommend him for any of your pet care needs! Our pets have special requirements and our cat can be difficult but he always does a great job!
Alexandria was a great in-home dog sitter for our pup. Our pup was happy and our place was as neat as we left it!
Natalie was so good with my little rescue buddy! Flexible, attentive, and very in tune with what a pet owner wants to know when they leave their fur baby, as she owns pets herself and knows what it’s like. My dog seemed very comfortable with her and loooved his walks and cuddles. I felt confident leaving him in her hands. Would definitely use her again!
Raven was an angel for my Lola — I didn’t have to worry at all despite being out of the country. She was proactive, calling our vet when she noticed something that concerned her while I was in another time zone. Very grateful for her dedication, and detailed updates! I’ll be hiring her services again very soon. Highly recommended!
Alison did a fantastic job watching our boy Zakk for 5 days as a house sitter. We appreciated updates and pictures every day and could seee he was enjoying himself and maintained his normal routine while we were away. We highly recommend Alison!
Pamela has become another mother to Ruby, my senior dog. She notices when Ruby is not herself, communicates with me and, together, we solve the little things that come up when you have a senior dog. Pamela is also so respectful and considerate of my home. At this point, I’m not sure I could do my life without her!
