I requested Monica services for an upcoming trip on Thanksgiving weekend and needed drop in visits for my cat. From the start Monica had great communication and did a wonderful job keeping me updated throughout my trip. She made me and my pet’s first Rover experience an exceptional one and I will confidently schedule her services if needed in the future.

Tanya was extremely attentive to our cats while we were gone and very attuned to their body language and (obviously) non-verbal communication. She was also great at communicating with us. Couldn’t recommend a better caretaker - would gladly hire her again!

I have known Cory and his spouse for a long time. They are caring, loving, a sweet couple. Both love and care for their animals as if they were their children. They are hardworking and strive to give 100 percent to anything that they are working at. I would trust them with my own sweet dog and my very life.

Stephanie was very good about keeping us informed. We got pictures, some of which are hilarious. Personally, I didn't believe her when she said TomTom missed us, but he sure was vocal when we came home! And it was all happy noises. Thanks!

I have always trusted Kaitlin with my two dogs and she has been an amazing resource for me to go to when I need someone I can trust to stay at my house and take amazing care of my babies. She has watched my senior dog and my 2 year old Dalmatian.
