1. Emylee L.
“Emylee was quick to respond to messages, on time with the scheduled check ins, posted plenty of pictures, and even brushed my dog out during a check in!”
2. Olga M.
“Olga’s updates + pictures everyday helped me feel at peace leaving my cat for 2 weeks! I would 100/10 recommend booking her for any and all pet needs! I will 100% book her again in the future when I go out of town!”
3. Sarah J.
“Sarah is awesome! She did drop in visits for our kitties last minute, which was amazing. We are so grateful to her and for her excellent care of our kitty crew.”
4. Victoria C.
“Took excellent care of our cat Sabre!”
5. Rinnah A.
“We used Rinnah for the first time to do a drop in visit and we loved her! She was very responsive when we first sent our request and was able to come over ahead of time to meet our dogs. During the check in, she confirmed in the morning and let us know when she was arriving. She took the 30 minutes to let them out and play with them, which we so appreciated since we kennel them when we are gone. Not only did she communicate with us during the visit, but she also sent us videos and pictures. I think we found our new dog sitter and will be using her more in the future. Thank you, Rinnah, for loving on our dogs!”
6. Dana H.
“Dana is amazing! One of my pets is a very anxious bulldog named Heidi. I don’t know much about my dog’s life before she became mine at 2yo, but I know she experienced neglect and abuse. She’s made great progress since, but needless to say that it’s very hard finding someone trustworthy and understanding of those anxious needs. When I knew I’d be away and needed that person, I immediately thought of Dana. She was so great with Heidi, she kept an eye out for any of her anxiety behaviors and worked to stop them right away. She of course provided daily updates and pictures, allowing me full peace of mind to enjoy my trip. And I returned to a happy and healthy pup 😊 Dana did all of that on top of taking excellent care of our other animals too. Would 1000% have Dana look after them again”
7. Martin K.
“Martin is amazing with dogs of all kinds. I doubt he has ever met a dog that he didn’t loved and that didn’t love him. He is punctual, communicative, and obviously cares a lot for the wellbeing of our furry friends. Martin has been helping me to walk and take care of my dog while I am away or busy for over 18 months and I trust him more with my baby than anyone else. Do not hesitate to work with Martin if you get the opportunity!”
8. Meredith S.
“The best cat sitter ever!! Communication was timely and kind. Both of my older cats absolutely loved her. They were incredibly well taken care of; brushed, played with, fed, water and a litter clean. Also was so kind to water my plants at a last second request :) will be using Meredith and Macey any time I travel! Highly recommend!”
9. Sinead B.
“Sinead was an excellent sitter for our elderly cat. She was very reliable, and completed the daily tasks as requested. Sinead and our kitty seemed to really connect. Sinead also sent photos and communicated consistently about her visits. We felt confident that our cat was well cared for and had a comforting companion with Sinead. We would definitely recommend her!”
10. Kathleen D.
“I highly recommend Kathleen. She took care of my cat for 21 days while I was in Europe. Her daily reports accompanied by photos gave me the reassurance that my fur baby was doing just fine. Kathleen is caring, conscientious and does an exceptional job. She bonded with my kitty by playing with her and taking care of her needs. I felt assured that my cat was in excellent care while I was gone. I would definitely book her again through Rover.com for any future pet care while I’m out of town.”
11. Rachael B.
“Raechel is a very caring sitter and went out of her way to understand what my cat Huckleberry would enjoy and tailored her visits to his needs. She is very passionate about her work and highly recommended!”
12. Alexandra B.
“Alex did a wonderful job dropping in to take care of my cat, Delilah, while I was out of the country. Alex left detailed drop-in notes with photos and took great care in following the instructions for feeding that I left. Alex spent time with Delilah during each visit for some much-needed cat playtime. I had complete confidence that Delilah was being well cared for while I was away for the week. Thank you, Alex!”
13. Loren G.
“Loren is such a big help checking in on Gary on unexpected days of work I haven’t planned out. She does a wonderful job and Gary sure seems to love hanging out with her!”
14. Shelley B.
“Shelly was great! She had excellent communication including being flexible with our initial meet n’ greet, letting me know she has arrived at my home, and sending me pics of my pups playing in the yard. She is professional, personable, and I feel very comfortable trusting her with my pups and home.”
15. Josephine D.
“Josephine has watched my dog many times and Winnie is always happy and excited to stay with her. Her other dogs are great playmates and she always updates me with pictures and texts of how my dog is doing while I’m gone. I can tell how comfortable and loved Winnie is when she stays at Josephine’s house. Definitely would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter”
16. Valeryan S.
“Val is truly a pet-whisperer. He instinctively and intuitively understands pets in a way beyond what most of us can perceive. He cares for them with a depth of love, warmth and deep compassion. He also understands that pets need boundaries and guidance. I have seen him work with very difficult dogs and bring about incredible change. It’s an energy he carries. You will absolutely love him and so will your cat, dog or other pet! Highly, highly recommended!!!”
17. Hope M.
“Hope was incredibly helpful and flexible during my long trip away from home. It was helpful to know someone who genuinely cared for Juno and was enjoying spending time with her was with her while I was away! I couldn’t ask for a better sitter and I’ll be asking her to sit for me again if I ever have a trip out of town again!”
18. Veronica G.
“Veronica provided excellent care for my basenji. She would take him on long walks, and provided several nights of overnight care. She was so incredibly loving, reliable, and punctual. Atlas just adored her.”
