With the holiday rush, we forgot to book a cat sitter until the last minute, but we were lucky enough to get Maria! She was very responsive and professional, and she took great care of our two cats.

We were so lucky to have found Marisol as a back up to our other Rover sitter. We have used her twice and have her scheduled for two more visits. She read and followed the instructions in our dogs profile and even brought in a package for us! Our dog was happy when I arrived home from work!

I'll work with their feeding, exercise, playtime, and daily schedule to help them feel comfortable and at ease.

I understand firsthand how difficult it can be to leave your pets behind while you're away, and how important it is to find someone you can trust. My goal is to ensure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you peace of mind during your time away.

Carole was so kind and personable. She’s very detailed, friendly and asked great questions during our first meeting. I know our dog was in great hands. Carole was able to work with us on short notice and helped keep our older dog busy & entertained on his first solo stay. He was very happy and well cared for.

Ive been having great experiences with Corina during her drop-in visit with my dog, Gunner. She were punctual, friendly, and gave Gunner lots of attention and care. I appreciated the detailed updates and professional photo shots—it was clear that he was happy and well cared for. Corina followed all my instructions and went above and beyond to make sure everything was just right. I’d definitely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable pet care!

Karina was absolutely amazing, and I cannot recommend her enough. Princess is an extremely shy dog who rarely trusts new people, and it is not easy at all to win her over. In the past, many sitters have struggled with her, and some have even given up, so finding someone like Karina has been a huge relief for me. Karina was incredibly patient, calm, and clearly very experienced with dogs. She truly went above and beyond to earn Princess’s trust at Princess’s own pace. It takes someone with real skill, understanding, and confidence around dogs to handle Princess the right way, and Karina did exactly that. Knowing Princess was in such capable and caring hands gave me so much peace of mind. I am so grateful that I found Karina, and she will absolutely be the first person I reach out to whenever I need help going forward. I look forward to working with her regularly because it is truly hard to find someone this dependable, skilled, and caring. If you have a shy, nervous, or challenging dog, I would recommend Karina without hesitation. She is outstanding.

Robin is really great with our pups. One of our dogs is not good with other dogs and the other is so nervous with new people. Robin makes sure to attend to their needs and is very energetic and sweet. I am so happy to have found her. She has done walks for us and drop ins while we travel.

I was so happy to have Leah stop in and take care of our pups. She met them ahead of time and made sure she understood what we needed done. We hired her at the last minute and she was very flexible. One of our dogs is super scared of everyone and she did great with Leah! I will definitely hire again without hesitation.

Carol was absolutely amazing! She stepped in last minute when I really needed help, and I couldn’t be more grateful. She was attentive, reliable, and made sure my puppy was well taken care of while I was at work. I really appreciated how patient and kind she was, especially since my puppy is still very young and not fully trained. She followed all instructions and gave me peace of mind knowing my baby was in good hands. I would definitely book Carol again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter!

🌟 Maria is the best! 5 stars is not enough! Luka had such a wonderful time with Maria! She took him on regular walks, gave him his favorite treats, and most importantly—showered him with so much love and attention. It was clear that he felt completely comfortable and happy with her. Maria kept me updated with sweet messages and adorable photos, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Knowing that Luka was in such caring and trustworthy hands meant the world to me. I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Thank you, Maria, for treating Luka like one of your own!
