Kaylee/Joe were amazing! I had reached out last minute for a few drop in visits while I had last minute travel. They were very accommodating, provided updates each visit with lots of pictures to know my baby was in good hands! Highly recommend!

We loved having Emily as our cat sitter! She sent lots of pictures and kept our cat happy and socialized for the week we were away. She made the process easy and was very fast in getting back to us. Would definitely recommend!

We are return customers for the kind, considerate, trustworthy and patient caretakers that are Megan and Kirby - THANK YOU! Their abilities to follow instructions, be consistent and caring and even better, their efforts to actually try and "bond" with our cats - especially the skittish one - are SO very much appreciated and we're so comfortable with them taking care of our kitties when we're away! We plan to continue requesting their services again in the future, if they're willing and available! Thanks again!

About: I work remotely and live in a condo with a small backyard. My small mix breed is loving and sweet, and gets along with all pets. I'm excited to have a new furry friend over to play with my pup! I absolutely adore dogs and have always had them in my life. Nothing makes me happier than being around them. I live in a lovely neighborhood with plenty of opportunities for long walks and outdoor adventures. Please don't hesitate to ask me any questions - I'm confident that my flexible schedule and ability to provide updates throughout the day will make for a great dog-sitting experience. I'm also open to dog-sitting if you need someone to watch your furry friend for a while I work from home, I am available every day with a very flexible schedule. On the weekends, I stay mostly in the house, and I have help partner's help. I have a small fenced backyard and I live in a lovely neighborhood with plenty of opportunities for long walks and outdoor adventures . It is a lovely dog friendly community.

Alejandra did a great job dropping in on our cats over the weekend. She was on time, provided detailed reports, took lots of pictures, and asked good questions when some of the instructions we left were unclear. I plan to hire her again if she is willing!

Mikaela is such a find! We were in a bit of an emergency situation with the dogs and she was able to save the day with her responsiveness, availability, and kindness. She gave super detailed reports on the dogs with every visit and it's clear how much she loves animals. Two massive thumbs up!

About: I have been blessed to have great pet's for almost the entirety of my life. I consider them some of the best friends I've ever had and shared strong bonds with them all. I have plenty of experience sitting for both dogs and cats for friends, family, and strangers alike. I was also a frequent participant in Humane Animal Partner's "Doggy Day Out" program. Through this program I was able to grasp the nuances of caring for dogs I was not familiar with and understanding how they all can have differing needs. I'll be sure to provide the love and care your pet deserves. I am currently working part-time while exploring more stable career options. This leaves me with plenty of time to be there for your pet throughout most parts of the day. Through clear communication from my client's, I can responsibly meet whatever needs your pet may need. I understand that your pets are members of your family and I will treat them with the respect you would expect from someone looking after a loved one.

Shelby was fantastic with my two cats when I was away for 8 days. She came over daily to feed and give treats and attention to them and always sent me detailed updates on sightings (one of my cats is very shy). I appreciate the extra effort she put into trying to find them both every day instead of just assuming they were ok, adding food and leaving. I’ve had that in the past so I’m really happy Shelby sat for some time each day waiting to see if the cats would come out. She also cleaned up a couple of messes that were made, definitely above and beyond what I was expecting! She is a real find on Rover and I will definitely be using her again!

About: I’ve watched and walked dogs since I was a kid, I’m always attentive, and protective of animals. Cats and dogs are naturally drawn to me because I have great energy. I’m a student but I’m available to care for your pets throughout the week, and I’m always available on the weekends. Or whenever needed. Caring for pets in my home or a client’s home starts with understanding each animal’s routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any medical requirements. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean and safe environment, and plenty of attention and affection. I also follow any specific instructions from the owner, such as administering medication, maintaining training consistency, and keeping the pet comfortable while the owner is away.

I used Rover for the first time and booked Jannelle to do several drop-in visits for my cat, Rainbow, for about a week. This was also only the second time I’ve needed some type of boarding or sitting for her. I was very nervous and Jannelle was extremely patient and accommodating to make me comfortable with the arrangement. Once the drop-in visits began, she followed all my instructions, gave thorough reports, and was very communicative. She took very good care of my Rainbow. 😊 She was nurturing, made time for play, and left my home looking exactly as I left it. Rainbow quickly warmed up to her, which spoke volumes! I couldn’t be more pleased with my experience and with Jannelle’s care.

Mike was amazing with Scooby! He watched him for a couple of weeks and took great care of him the whole time. He was very helpful, easy to communicate with, and made sure we stayed updated every day by sending videos. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Scooby was in good hands. Highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring Rover 🙌🏽

Erica was great with our cat. She was very responsive and helpful. She went above and beyond, e.g. by also bringing the mail inside and stopping by for an additional, next-day visit. Would definitely recommend her and work with her again. Thank you, Erica!

I never worry about my kitties when Eleanor takes charge. They love her and patiently wait for my return. And she helps with anything that needs attention in the apartment, communicates right away, over and beyond just cat sitting. I have found the very best and trust her completely!

I'm so glad to have been able to book Russell for a second round of visits! Russell visited my two cats every day for nearly a month and took great care of them. He sent daily visit photos which put my mind at ease. On the day of my return my flight was delayed over 5 hours, and Russell very kindly made an extra visit to my guys to make sure they were fed and watered despite my delay. My cats and I loved having Russell!
