1. Maria G.
“Such a kind person and an animal lover to the core. Shinji loved having Maria over! She also gave love to our cat even though he didn't need to be taken care of. I can't recommend her enough, she clearly knows what she is doing and loves the animals that she sits. Will definitely keep in touch if we go travel again. Thank you so much!”
2. Chelsea V.
“Chelsea was great!!! She took great care of hops during her visit. She sent great pictures and was very good at communicating prior to visiting!! Will book her again!!”
3. Rebecka B.
“Rebecka, is an outstanding sitter. Dolly loves her and she takes outstanding care of here. Always keeps me updated, with photos and a nice write up.”
4. Briana R.
“Briana was a phenomenal cat sitter for our darling Nora. Our kitty is quite shy and doesn't take to most people, so we were so pleased that Briana was able to work with her anyway -- she caught pictures of Nora every day and had success trying to engage her in play. I also forgot to tell Briana where a few items were, but she was able to figure everything out and gave Nora quality care while we were away. We will definitely be working with Briana again!”
5. Jessica R.
“Jessica has great communication and is so gentle with our girl, Vi. Our cat doesn't trust easily but, she has warmed up to Jessica. Violet doesn't seem stressed or, unhappy while in Jessica's care and that makes feel so much better about being away.”
6. Cassie U.
“Cassie has been such a wonderful caretaker for our cats. She spends quality time with the cats and ensures everything is clean and in order. Cassie goes above and beyond, was very flexible, and was such a big help. The cats absolutely adored her and seemed to really enjoy her company.”
7. Zachary G.
“Zachary helped take care of my kitty Zeus while I was away for an extended period of time. Zachary sent me updates with each visit to keep my mind at ease. He is a dependable sitter and I recommend him for your pet care needs.”
8. Jennifer P.
“Jennifer is fabulous! A great communicator and trustworthy. I know my dogs are being very well cared for when she’s responsible for them. One of the dogs has anxiety and she is always willing to figure out how to best give him care or asks about various situations. It is much appreciated and is an indication of her true passion for dogs. Thank you Jennifer!”
9. Cam L.
“My cat is high maintenance and a bit of a pain. Cam was incredibly patient and clever in terms of getting my cat his medicine. After a few days the cat finally trusted him to deliver the meds orally. Cam was great throughout the process. 5/5 Would recommend!”
10. Jen H.
“Jen is an incredible pet sitter! She’s been a great friend and neighbor for a few years now. When she told me she was joining Rover I thought it was a perfect fit for her! She does a great job taking care of my Lhasa Apsos, Waldo & Wiggles, who r quite a handful of excited energy and like to barrel through the house bumping into furniture, especially my crafts area … they like to be alert and involved with any activities or noises in and around the neighborhood. Jen has always given them both extra TLC and distracted them from their nerves. I’m her biggest fan! —Mark M., Shrewsbury, MA”
11. paulina r.
“Paulina is a great cat sitter! She was easy to communicate with and was happy to meet us and our cat before we hired her. She is reliable and gave our cat plenty of attention while we were away. Would absolutely hire her again. Thank you, Paulina!”
12. Kevin L.
“Kevin took great care of our pups! We had peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. We will definitely be booking him again in the future!”
13. Ann Marie J.
“Ann Marie was AMAZING with our 1 year pitty mix named Tali. She went above and beyond with updates, pictures, and entertainment for our pup. I could tell Tali looked forward to Ann Marie's visits and we will absolutely be booking her again for drop by visits.”
14. christina l.
“I’ve known christina for years, and she has been walking my dog Winston on a regular basis! She is highly professional, highly reliable, and very trustworthy! I would recommend her services to any of my friends or colleagues”
15. Paul L.
About: I’ve grown up with animals. They mean everything to me. I have two dogs right now and a cat but I’d have an animal kingdom if it was feasible. Even the most stubborn pets seem to soften up to me. I truly think I’m an animal whisperer 🤫🤷♂️ I work Sunday to Wednesday as a counselor for mentally challenged teenagers. Also a full time college student studying social work. Thursday, Friday, and Saturday are my full days off but my work days can also be discussed. I am very flexible so whatever your pet needs or wants then I’m sure I can make it happen. Walks, bathroom, food, sleep, or whatever it is I can make it work.
16. Virginia A.
“I am so happy and to have found Virginia. She takes wonderful care of my Mavis. I already have her booked again and recommend her to everyone.”
17. Mo F.
“Always does a great job!”
18. Victoria S.
“Victoria's awesome. On-time, caring, knowledgeable, reliable. I highly recommend her.”
19. Natalya D.
“Natalya was an amazing choice to care for our 5 cats. She updated me and sent pictures daily. She also has so much experience with animals that she truly made me feel at ease while away. Thank you so much Natalya!”
20. Laura A.
“Laura did an excellent job of caring for our kitten. We could tell right away that she really likes animals. We'll definitely use her again!”
