1. Emily N.
“Emily was amazing! She took care of my senior dog and cat while I was away for the weekend and sent me pictures and updates on how each was doing throughout. My senior dog is a rescue and can get anxious when I leave but he seemed to be so comfortable with Emily and was super calm during the weekend. I’ll be using Emily again next time I go out of town!”
2. Alexa B.
“Alexa did a wonderful job taking care of our dog in our home over a long holiday weekend. She was communicative, made sure Beau got his walks and play time, left our home clean and our dog happy. She followed our instructions on everything and asked questions when she wasn’t sure about something. We hope our dog wasn’t too crazy for her, but we would gladly welcome her back! So grateful we found Alexa.”
3. Abi S.
“Abi was great. She was very responsible and my dog loved her.”
4. Nicole R.
“This our first time hiring someone to take care of our dogs, usually we leave them with family. This time the entire family was on a trip so we opted for Rover and feel very blessed to have found Nicole. Nicole is very detail-oriented, communicated perfectly and even sent videos twice a day. We decided to leave the dogs at home instead of sending them to an unknown environment. And she not only walked them. She sat with them and gave them attention. This all became very crucial because it was very hard for me to leave my dogs this time around. One of my dogs had a bit of an eye irritation and she did a great job keeping track of his progress and keeping me updated. We are very grateful for Nicole and will definitely ask for her services again in the future.”
5. Belicia K.
“Belicia is the absolute best. We were gone for two weeks for our wedding abroad and were so busy that we barely had time to check in the way we normally would. Yet, Belicia made a daily effort to give us the loveliest updates about her time with our girl, giving us total peace of mind.”
6. Shakira C.
“Shakira is the absolute best and just a amazing lady! This was my first time hes I g him with a stranger. Both she and Benzo fell in love with each other and he was looking sad when she left. She took good care of my boy and kept me updated on his activities during the day. Couldn’t ask for a better experience or sitter for my puppy. Do not hesitate ti book her if she’s available; you won’t regret it I promise. She is a dog whisperer!!?”
7. Sarah S.
“Sarah did a great job with Hazel and Apollo. This was the first time we have left them with a sitter (other than a family member), so we were a bit nervous, but once I asked for some updates and photos, Sarah was good about sending them! She was very prompt with her arrival times and our dogs seemed comfortable with her from the beginning.”
8. Roman H.
“Roman was such a great sitter! Arthur was very comfortable around him. Roman was very thoughtful and caring and made sure to send us photos and videos of Arthur while we were away. Would definitely recommend!”

“Wow Karen is great with animals. She is extremely friendly and patient when getting to meet new pets. Karen has two dogs of her own that she takes great care of and loves. I trust Karen with watching my dog Daisy, a pitbull mix, any day as I know Karen will keep Daisy safe and happy. Karen also loves to play with animals!

14. Jasmine P.
“Jasmine took excellent care of Zoey while we were out of town for nearly a week. Despite Zoey's nervousness and the challenges it posed initially, Jasmine exercised a lot of patience and willingness to try different things to allow Zoey to feel more safe. And after the first night, Zoey warmed up significantly! Jasmine kept us updated throughout the trip, whether it was the challenges on the first day or the big successes in the days that followed! We really appreciated Jasmine's skills, knowledge, and commitment to taking care of Zoey.”
