“Shannon was an amazing choice for a puppy visit! She kindly took care of my high energy 10 week old puppy for 30 min when I had to go to the office. She was very responsive and followed all instructions. Wrigley was lucky to have her help!”
2. Iryna K.
“This was my second booking with Iryna. When I came back from my previous trip, I noticed my cat was a lot calmer and loving than coming back from trips with other sitters, so there was no doubt about using her services again. She has great communication and documents everything really well. I got daily pictures and video’s of Iryna playing with and caring for Yuki. She was also flexible to come back to us, with a last minute booking, both in location and time. I would absolutely use her services again and I absolutely recommend her for any other cat parents :) thanks Iryna for being there !”

7. Patricia S.
“Patricia is the BEST! She was my first ever Rover experience and she was amazing. She communicated with me everytime she visited my dog, took her on walks, and spent time to play with her each time. She also sent pictures of my dog for each check-in which was really appreciated. Patricia went above and beyond my expectations and I absolutely recommend her to any other dog owners who want the peace of mind that their pup is in good hands.”
8. Ameera B.

10. Javkhlan T.
“Jackie was very pleasant to work with, asked questions to cover all the angles to make sure my super senior kitty was taken care of, including about giving her medication which Jackie did with ease. She sent me pictures for each visit and provided thorough notes/summaries, and I could tell she genuinely adores cats and showed that love to Moojie. I will absolutely hire her again!”

12. Catie N.
“Catie had to make a change to the reservation due to a personal situation but she was super communicative to make sure I had time to find a sitter for the rest of the time and worked to get the key to the person as well. Vinnie loves her and would definitely hire her again when I need someone to watch her.”
13. Sreya C.
“Sreya was wonderful. She's a good communicator, is on time, and was great with my noisy, rambunctious crew. Thank you!”
14. Kerra H.
“Kerra and Chris took great care of my kitties!! They were very responsive and sent many videos along with photos and a detailed update every day. They also were upfront and told me about any unexpected delays about timing of starting the visit, even if it would only be by an hour or two. I will definitely be using them again! Thank you!”
15. Melissa S.
“I can’t rave enough about how AMAZING Melissa is! As a very devout cat mom, I tend to find myself stressing about my Berkley🐈⬛ while vacationing! Not only is this the first time I was able to detach myself from those ever so common stress paths, but I also was able to fully indulge in my entire trip without even questioning his wellbeing. Melissa went ABOVE & BEYOND ensuring she formed a trusting Bond with Berkley and it showed. I can count on one hand how many people Berkley has trusted enough to not only play, but hand feed him, Melissa has made that list and he is 7 years old! Impressive is an understatement. I know exactly who I will contact next time we need a sitter and if Melissa isn’t available, I will likely resechedule my trip to a time she is! Thank you, Melissa. You have gained a permanent place on the top of the sitter list and I really can’t thank you enough!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻”
16. McKenna D.
“McKenna was amazing with Goose and Roo! We came back to tired, content puppies. McKenna was great with sending regular updates and pictures. We definitely plan to have her watch the dogs again next time we’re out of town!”
17. Michelle O.
“Michelle always takes such great care of my anxious, high-energy pup. She is incredibly responsive and professional. I can always count on frequent updates with photos and videos, which gives me peace of mind knowing my dog is in great hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter or walker!”
18. Louise W.
“Louise was great with my cat while I was away; her updates were detailed and really showed the care she took. Thank you for taking such good care of Angie, Louise!”
19. Yiting D.
“Yiting is amazing! She is very responsive, communicative, and caring. Mico was taken good care of by her while I was away. She sent pictures, videos and detailed updates. I would definitely have her help to drop in again! Cheers!”
20. Angela S.
“Angela took care of my 3 month old kitten and it was clear that he was in good hands. She made sure he was well-fed and entertained, and I would gladly trust Angela with taking care of my pet anytime.”
