Nelly was wonderful to have taking care of our basset sisters. She followed all of the care instructions and went above and beyond in looking after the girls and the house.

Emily was extremely responsive and professional from the first moment we talked. She stayed over at our place for two nights caring for our senior lady, Mocha. Mocha is 15 years old and due to her age, has some needs. Emily was very attentive to all the details we shared with her and took such good care of Mocha! After meeting Emily we felt very comfortable leaving Mocha with her. During her watch, she sent us many updates and photos. We will definitely book with Emily again in the future!

Christina was an absolute blessing to 13-lb Iorek for my 10-day trip. Iorek has many special needs, and from the moment we made first contact, Christine was sensitive to learning his needs and enthusiastic to accommodate them. This approach persisted throughout my 10 days away while she stayed at my apartment to care for Iorek. Each day, I received adorable photos and updates written thoughtfully and with a clear intent to put my anxious dog-mom mind at rest. Christine ensured that Iorek’s routine was disturbed as little as possible, including facilitating play dates with neighbors (both dog and human). I returned home to a puppy free of anxiety or stress, and a tidy and clean home, all linens washed from her use and everything in its place. What a delight! I can’t say enough good stuff about Christine. If you’re lucky enough to book her, your pet will thank you! My future travel plans will always include Christine.

Loralys is seriously the best in-home sitter I've had on Rover, and I've had some great sitters. The difference is the amount of obvious love she showed to my dog, Pippin, which I think speaks to her love of animals, period. She texted frequently, sent pictures and videos, and in general made us feel very comfortable about leaving our fairly new rescue pup with someone else. In the videos she is talking to our Pip in a soft, reassuring voice, and Pippin was clearly relaxed and happy. She got to know Pippin at a time when I was also still getting to know her, which actually helped me, too. She goes out of her way to bring her own food, towels, etc. which with us, is unnecessary because we consider an in-home sitter to be a guest, entitled to use our things and make herself comfortable (especially if they are taking good care of our dog, who is an entitled member of the family). For others who aren't so inclined, they may appreciate that she does this.

Kasey was a fantastic Rover! I’d absolutely hire her again. I hired her to take care of my two cats (who have very individual needs) for almost 2 weeks. I was able to go on vacation with complete peace of mind knowing that Kasey was at my home. She texted me almost daily with pictures of the cats and updates on how they’re doing. Even our shy and antisocial cat loved her! Kasey even had the sweetest touch to leave a little gift for us upon our arrival back home. Thank you Kasey!

My dog had a good time with Jared. I was skeptical about how she will be with Jared’s dog but everything went well. Jared shared pictures of Fifiee few times in a day which made me more comfortable about her stay with Jared.

Natasha was great. She came over to the house before I accepted the service to make us comfortable and to meet the pups, she asked all the right questions (vet, emergency contact, etc), and took great care of the pups. Will definitely rebook!

Lu and Rhiley stayed at my house with our big old senior dog, Grace for over a week. Lu was a great communicator, responded quickly to questions, was super responsible and attentive to Grace and things at the house, sent photos, and, most importantly, clearly loved spending time with Grace. I highly recommend Lu and would definitely invite them to stay with Grace again!

Meg was amazing! We were so relaxed all weekend knowing that Louie was in excellent hands. She updated us with pictures and messages throughout the weekend and left our home cleaner than when she arrived. I know Louie had a great time with her because he was relaxed and tired when we got home. 10/10 would recommend Meg to anyone, and we will absolutely be requesting her services again and again. ?

About: Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me for pet sitting for over 10 years for both dogs and cats (and the occasional bunny). I am avaliable to check in, feed, and keep your cat(s) company. I am more than happy to send picture or video updates while cat-sitting! Feel free to be as detailed as you want to with required and prefered instructions because all cats like and dislike different things. I look forward to meeting your cats! I am currently a student with open availability Friday-Monday and limited availability Tuesday-Thursday. If you need a sitter for times on Tuesday-Thursday, we can work out a schedule so long as I have a few days heads up :) I am not offering at-home care in my own house at this time, but I am more than happy and willing to travel to you!
