Anna took amazing care of my cats while I was out of town! It’s always difficult to leave them, but Anna’s detailed updates and awesome photos put me at ease. She cared for my cats as if they were her own, and i am incredibly grateful. I only wish I wasn’t moving away soon so I could book her as my regular sitter!

Ciara was great! We were gone for a couple of days and needed someone to check in on our cats. She was communicative and the cats were well taken care of while we were gone.

Gabriela took wonderful care of my 2 kitties while I was on vacation. She is responsive, punctual, attentive to needs and solution driven. We encountered a couple issues with the key fob dispenser not working properly and with the cats knocking over a large plant. She notified me and resolved both issues quickly which was a huge relief. Nobody wants to be dealing with or stressed out with issues from a distance and during a short time-off. I trust her with my cats and will definitely be booking her again. Highly recommend her services.

About: I have grown up with pets my whole life and love to play and walk or even just hang out with them. If you need I am a responsible owner who will take your dog to the park or a long walk! I am still in school and I work part-time but I can definitely work around that. I am available most afternoons and weekends as well. I will take your pet to the dog park or a long walk or just hang out with them if they need company. Whatever is needed!

About: I had my dog for 11 years of my life, until she recently passed. I’ve also cared for my neighbors cat for two years. While I miss my pet, I would find so much joy in caring for yours! I’m currently home for the summer from college, and I have a very free summer! I am super flexible and can care for your fur babies whenever you need! I have a fenced yard, and when I am out of my house the pet would be safely confined to one room and made as comfortable as possible. I am fully comfortable walking your dog as needed, and having play time!

Orianne provided care for my cat for the first time last week while I was out of town. I appreciated that she responded to my request sort of last minute. She was on-time and provided all the services I requested for each visit. She immediately reported an issue when it happened and it was quickly resolved. I would highly recommend Orianne for pet care.

Sarah was such a great caretaker for my cat Punch Bowl while I was away! She gave me peace of mind while I was gone by playing with him, petting him, and giving him treats. I felt really comfortable with Sarah checking in on him and she is clearly a huge animal lover- Punch Bowl seemed super comfortable with her!

I had an excellent experience with Zoey and would absolutely book with her again. Before my trip, she took the time to come to my apartment to meet my cats, get familiar with their routines, and make sure she understood all of the care instructions. That gave me a lot of confidence before leaving. During every drop-in visit, she sent detailed updates along with plenty of photos, which gave me peace of mind and let me know my cats were doing well. It was clear she genuinely cared about their well-being and paid attention to how they were behaving each day. She also went above and beyond by keeping everything clean, taking care of the litter boxes, and tidying up after my cats during her visits. When I returned home, my cats were happy, well cared for, and my apartment was just as clean as I had left it. I highly recommend Zoey to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and compassionate pet sitter. She made traveling completely stress-free, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.

Carrie is always great with our cats. Hermes in particular can be aloof, but quickly warms up to Carrie. It helps that Carrie is a good reader of the signals he sends when he wants to play, get some ear scratches, etc.

Sam did an awesome job of taking care of Teddy for over 2 weeks. Teddy was our new rescue and we were a bit nervous leaving him since he is still a bit skittish. This was also our first time using Sam. But the daily love-fest of photos put us at ease right away. We got to see Teddy was receiving the best of care and loving. When we got home, it was evident that Teddy was the happiest we’ve ever seen him. Thank you Samantha! ❤️

I was very pleased with Erica as a pet sitter for my cat. She was very reliable and I liked the way she took notes during the intro visit. It was the first time I had used her as my pet sitter and the first time using Rover in many years. Erica sent pictures and gave me updates daily as to how things were going with my elderly cat and she was very good at communicating with me regularly. She handled bringing in the mail and also another small house chore. I appreciated her flexibility. Most importantly, she seemed sincere in wanting to help my cat be as secure and comfortable as possible when I was away.
