Kirsten did a wonderful job with my cat! My cat is usually timid and doesn’t let people even get close to her, but she came right up to Kirsten and was super comfortable from the start. Will definitely book her again!

Julia did a great job dropping in on my two cats over a long weekend - everything about working with her was easy and enjoyable, from the initial communication to our first meeting, the care she provided and photo updates she shared, and how happy and healthy the cats were when I returned. I would definitely book with her again.

I cannot recommend Stephanie enough! Stephanie is clearly someone who cares and connects deeply with all animals. She watched our two cats for 2 weeks and was responsible and punctual and we could tell she showered them with love. Her communication was great and I intend to book with her again in the future!

Emily was amazing - I can’t recommend her enough. Took such good care of my good, was so punctual, and so easy to work with. Plus, my dog love, which I thought was telling. My dog is reactive and Emily handled her perfectly. Will definitely be using Emily moving forward.

This is the third time I’ve left my cats in Rachel’s care, because I know that she is trustworthy and I don’t have to worry while I’m gone. I remain so delighted and impressed at her thoughtful updates, and how she goes the extra mile to befriend my shy cats who hide under the bed. It’s just such a relief to not have to stress when you’re gone, and Rachel delivers that flawlessly!

Cheyanne was so amazing with my kitties! She made sure my cat who needed meds got them down every day and kept me updated with cute pics twice a day! I felt so much peace of mind knowing Cheyanne was checking in on them every day and making sure they got the love and attention they needed while I was away! Thank you, Cheyanne!!!

Kelli did an excellent job watching my cat while I was out of town. This was the first time I left him alone overnight and my first time booking with Rover, but Kelli made it a great experience for both my cat and I! She was always on time, provided very detailed report cards each visit, and sent plenty of photos! Thank you, Kelli!!

I am friends with Lily for several years now and have always known her to be a compassionate, caring, and trustworthy person. So when I needed someone to dog-sit my French bulldog Tomato, I knew immediately that Lily is the right person for the job. Lily has taken care of Tomato on many occasions now. And on each occasion, Lily has always exceeded my already high expectations. I’m happy to say that I will continue to enlist Lily’s service to dog-sit Tomato now and in the future. I highly recommend Lily N.
