She is amazing! Our dog was obviously pampered and much more relaxed than usual when we get back. I’ve never been so confident that she was treated well and our house was exceptionally well cared for as well. She even taught our old dog a new game. 100% recommended.

Elizabeth was great with our weird old dog and aloof cat. She sent lots of updates and let us know things were going well. She’s also a great house sitter. We will definitely book with Elizabeth again. Thanks, Liz!

Nancy’s incredibly communicative and caring when dogsitting for our 2 small pups and my mom’s small Havanese. We felt our pups were in great hands and she was easy to work with when we had some last minute changes. One of our dogs is anxious and reactive - Nancy was thoughtful and patient in meeting him which we greatly appreciative. Will definitely hire her in the future.

Rose is the best housesitter we've ever used from Rover! Responsible and great with communication! We had a small house/car emergency while she was housesitting, and she handled it perfectly. We will definitely be using her again.

Jordan was extremely communicative and updated me to let me know the boys (our dogs) were doing good! She also checked before having guests over which just shows how considerate she is while staying in other’s homes! We felt very safe having her there with them and really appreciated how quick she was to respond, etc. will definitely be requesting Jordan again!

Amanda was fantastic. I feel secure in leaving her with my dogs. She followed their schedule and gave them a lot of love and attention. My home was just as I left it when I returned. She is intelligent, personable, and dependable. I plan to use her for my trip in September. I can now go on my cruise knowing everything will be okay at home. I highly recommend her.

JP was amazing. She took great care of our little dog. She communicated with us throughout our time away sending pictures of our dog. Abbey, our little chihuahua, actually seemed to miss her when we were back home. That says a lot! We would not hesitate to recommend Jp, and will book her again in the future.

What a fantastic sitter Amber was! She was able to handle all 3 of our dogs, one of whom I am sure smothered her with affection attempts and another on the opposite end of the spectrum in that I know she had to use patience to win him over. She was able to do it all and everything in between. If our dogs could talk I know they’d already be asking when is the next time Amber is coming by. Thank you.!

Lee jumped in and helped housesitting my dog and cat while I was out of town. He was great! I got daily updates with photos (always appreciated). My cat and dog were both well loved and well taken care of. He was quick to respond and always asked questions. Would definitely have him watch my fur babies again when I'm out of town!

David has been a lifesaver when it comes to us needing someone to watch our pups. He’s always persistent with knowing if our dogs are on any kind of medication or if they have a schedule when it comes to feeding and letting them out. He’s very quick to respond if you’re just wanting to check in on your pups to see how they are doing with David. Overall, I would always pick David to watch our pups and he’s always so sweet and gentle with them!

Katelyn stayed at my house and took care of my Jack Russell Terrier, Lucy. Katelyn has a very natural and calming effect and I could tell Lucy liked her right away. Everything went so smoothly and I could tell from the updates and pics that everything was going smoothly. It really put my mind at ease while traveling. When I returned my house was spotless (neater than when I left!) and Lucy was very happy, well fed and walked. I 100% recommend Katelyn and will seek her dogsitting help for my next trips!

Jonathan was a *wonderful* sitter! We have an 8-month old kitten who needs lots of playtime, and Jonathan was reliable, confident, and reassuring. He hit it off with Bowie right away, and came up with lots of fun ways to keep him entertained. Jonathan sent us plenty of photos, and we came home to a happy and relaxed cat and a clean house. We'd certainly book with Jonathan again!

Bri was great in taking care of our animals! I would trust her to watch all of our dogs and cats. She is respectful and clearly has a love for animals. She is great, trustworthy and reliable. She knows to stick to a routine and take care of the animals as needed. We don't worry when we Bri is there to take care of our pets. It gives us peace of mind and for that we are grateful.
