Susan was prompt and kind. I could really tell she cares about dogs. She asked great questions, making sure she knew everything she needed to know to properly care for Lucy. Highly recommend!

Madeline did a great job watching our 1 year old Zuko. She was very communicative and sent plenty of pictures! Even dealt with getting into our apartment after we had accidentally locked the door. Would recommend!

We have had Shanley come over for drop in visits regularly over the last few weeks. She has been wonderful with Misty, trusted, respectful and communicative. Her first visit, we had a bit of a snafu (completely our fault), and she handled it with grace and calmness (she was way more calm than me and I appreciated that!). We are so thankful we found her and we welcome her to “Team Misty!”

Christine was amazing. My cats loved her and my older cat takes a while to warm up to new people. She was out and playing on the first night Christine watched her.

We are so grateful to have met Jj and have a trusted person to take care of our 2 cats while we are away. Our kitties are very shy/anxious and Jj has complete understanding of how to accommodate their personalities. Jj has now twice done a great job of taking care of their needs while letting the cats stay in their comfort zone. We will absolutely have Jj visit again and would highly recommend them. They were thorough & asked great questions at our meet and greet too. Thank you Jj!

Ethan is absolutely incredible! I spent my first week away from my pup in 8 years and he assured me that she was getting top-notch care and affection while I was gone through phenomenal updates, photos and messages throughout the duration of the care.

Zara took wonderful care of our cat, Emmy, when we left town on short notice to care for a sick relative. For three weeks Zara came by our house reliably each day to scoop cat litter, refill food and water, and pet / play with Emmy, giving lots of snuggles, and she even brought in packages from our front porch. We really appreciated the care and attention Zara brought to her role, including sending us pictures and videos of Emmy daily. It was very reassuring to know that our cat (and our home) were well cared for during our absence, especially during a stressful time in our lives. We would 100% hire Zara again.

About: We've loved dogs our whole lives and joined Rover with the dream of opening our own doggy daycare someday. We bring hands-on experience, having raised our two dogs—a beagle and a basset hound—from tiny pups to well-behaved adults. Our apartment building has a dog park, that provides an ideal space for quick potty breaks and playdates with other pups. Having two pups of our own, pet care is already integrated into our daily routine. We have flexible work home jobs, ensuring your pup gets enough attention & potty breaks throughout the day. We’ll always be keeping an eye on your pup. Since there’s two of us, there will always ways be someone there with them, and they’ll never be left alone.

I have known Natalie for years and seen how kind and responsible she is with her own cats and dogs. She is just as doting when watching our kitty. She sends lots of photos of their cuddles and makes sure to actually play with him. Litter box is clean and cat is happy and well cared for when we come home. Can’t recommend her enough!

Melina is WONDERFUL! She came in 3 days this week and each day did an INCREDIBLE JOB! She keeps me and my boyfriend super up to date with communication, videos, and pictures ❤️ If I have any questions, Melina responds immediately. And she follows any requests for Ivy (our pup) closely. Looking forward to having Melina come back to watch Ivy soon☺️

Hans is an excellent, trustworthy caregiver! We volunteered together at an animal shelter walking dogs and he was always patient, calm, and happy to see the dogs. He handled leash reactivity well. He's also one of the best cat-dads I know and will take just as great care of your fur babies as he does his own!

I really enjoyed using Cindy’s services. She went above and beyond for my cat Bobbie who I learned while I was away was suffering from an infection. Cindy was able to administer this new medicine and make sure everything was great. It was comforting to get pictures and videos from Cindy while I was gone that showed Bobbie was doing well and comfortable rubbing and being pet by Cindy which is rare because Bobbie is blind and kind of jumpy. Everything went well and will plan to use Cindy again in the future!

I've never seen a happier pet than Felix! It's obvious that Filmon puts their pet's well-being first. They provide the best care, from nutritious food and regular exercise to lots of love and attention. It's clear Felix is thriving in their care. Filmon is a compassionate and responsible caregiver that truly respects all animals.

I simply can't express enough gratitude for the incredible care that Danielle provided to my dog while I was away. I knew very quickly that my furry friend was in the best hands possible. She not only took care of the basics but showered my boy with love and attention. Each update and photo that was sent warmed my heart and reassured me that he was not just fine, but having a great time. Danielle's dedication to ensuring my pet's well-being went beyond my expectations. She was very committed to ensuring that he felt comfortable and secure while I was away. In short, I can't recommend her highly enough and will undoubtedly entrust her with his care in the future. Thank you, Danielle, for being an absolute blessing!
