Meric was an excellent petsitter for our dog, Luci. He was very polite and kept our home clean. I was very anxious about leaving my dog, but Meric did a great job of putting my mind at ease with his friendly, knowledgeable demeanor and twice daily photos of them having fun. I would recommend Meric as a dog sitter for anyone!

Crystal was amazing. My dog has a very hard time trusting new people. She took extra time and care to make sure my dog was comfortable and happy. Communication during the stay was amazing, I got photos and videos daily. I would definitely recommend Crystal.

We had an outstanding experience with Victoria! She took exceptional care of our two dogs, ensuring they were happy and well-attended to. Her responsiveness and frequent updates, complete with lots of pictures, kept us reassured throughout the day. She showered them with love and attention, took them on long walks, and even brought them to the dog park. Our dogs had an incredibly fun and fulfilling day with her. Highly recommended!

Alia was fantastic. You can tell she is a natural with dogs and “gets” them. Tokki immediately jumped up in her lap when she came and was more interested in playing her than focusing on me leaving which is great for a dog with separation anxiety.

Mary is the BEST! She watched our 2 French Bulldogs in our apartment, on very short notice, and did such a wonderful job. One frenchie is 4 years old and the other is just a puppy, 3 months old. I am extremely protective of my dogs, and have to be diligent about their care as frenchies have lots of health precautions. Mary was very experienced and made me feel comfortable from the beginning. The dogs had such a great night playing with Mary, and we all look forward to her watching the boys again soon. Thank you Mary!!!

Nia was wonderful! She arrived early and stayed late when I wasn't able to get back by the time I stated. Merlin took an instant liking to her and seemed to be very comfortable after I left (he has separation anxiety so it's a big deal). I would definitely use her again.

Jordyn did a great job taking care of my 3 dogs over the past weekend, one of whom was super high energy and not easy to handle. She left our place spotless and listened to all of my (overly) detailed instructions, and communicated thoroughly and promptly. We are excited to have her care for our dogs again! TY Jordyn :)

Julia was a wonderful dogsitter! It was my first time using rover and I wasn't sure what to expect but she was so attentive to my dog and sent me regular updates while I was away. Would gladly have Julia take care of my dog again.

Victoria was fantastic! She took excellent care of my cat - both in his everyday needs (food, litter, and playtime) and medical care (medication administration including pills and liquids). Thanks to her, I came home to a happy and healthy kitty! She was communicative each day with photos and updates, respectful of our home, and a general pleasure to work with. I’m already rebooking :)

Maddie was incredible with Vespa, my 3 year old foster dog! Maddie was incredibly sweet and caring with Vespa, and Vespa felt so comfortable with her that she curled up next to her, which she never does with new people. Maddie was excellent with communication ahead of the dog sitting and during, and I really appreciated the updates about how she was doing. 14/10 would recommend and would have over again!!
