1. Stefanie S.
“Stefanie is a great cat sitter. She was flexible and able to change dates when I had an emergency and needed to move the booking up. She was able to befriend one of my cats "Binx" and sent many pictures of him playing,.relaxing and being petted. She searched for my other 3 cats and kept me updated if they weren't spotted. She was able to figure out the litter robot and empty the waste bin and even cleaned up the occasional hairball.”
2. Joran G.
“I’ve had Joran walk my lab Bella for a couple months and he was very responsible also was a big help and made Bella very happy she got zoomies anytime he was around.”
3. Maxwell F.
“Magdalyn was excited when Maxwell arrived. They went for a walk which calmed her a bit. Overall a good experience for both of us. Thank you. Will reach out to you again. Sharon.”
4. Sara H.
“Sara was so great. My shy cat loved her immediately - she was sitting in Sara's lap before the visits were done! Also, my lock broke while I was away and she helped me deal with it and was so patient. I’m really happy to have someone I can trust and my cat likes to call when I go out of town now.”
5. Taylor H.
“Taylor was great with my kitties! My very shy little girl fell in love with her right away. Very responsible, prompt, great with kitties! Even reported a maintenance issue to my building for me when I was away!”
6. Syd S.
“I’ve been hesitant to use Rover for years worrying over leaving my fur baby with someone unfamiliar and having a stranger in my home. I decided to try the service out when a last minute trip came up, and I’m glad I did because Syd removed all my fears! She was so nice and communicative, my baby Pepper loved her and I enjoyed seeing all the photos of their playtime and walking adventures. I would definitely use Syd and Rover again knowing that my fur baby is in great hands.”
7. Janina K.
“Janina was great! We left very detailed directions for our 3 cats and a foster cat, she followed everything perfectly and sent updates with photos at each visit. Very kind, professional, and responsive-put my mind at ease while j was away for the weekend. Highly recommend!”
8. Lenford W.
“Lenford is great with my dachshund, Isles. He’s always early and stays a little extra to make sure my anxious pup feels safe before he heads out. Lenford plays with him too, and Isles is always thrilled to see him, running up with excitement. Really happy with his help!”
9. Kayla P.
“Kayla is great! She has been dropping in on our puppy routinely for about 5 weeks. She is reliable and always let's us know how Finn was doing that day. We are so thankful for Kayla and highly recommend her!”
10. Giovanna G.
About: I took care of my dog since he was a puppy and i was 12, I make sure I put full dedication and effort into caring for my pets with love and respect. I am currently a full time college student but I have Monday-Saturday availability from early morning to evening to attend and walk your pet :)) I make sure to follow the set of instructions provided depending on each pet, seriously and on the set of time, making sure that that pet has full comfort.
11. Mellissa C.
“Mellissa took excellent care of our cat! Super quick and thorough communicator, truly cares about what she does, and made us feel totally at ease being away from home. Would 1000% recommend!”
12. Katryna P.
“Katryna was on time, responsive and followed my multi-step feeding directions for my elderly kitties perfectly. They are usually shy and came out while she was there. She also left my place tidy - thanks Katryna!”
13. ANEI B.
“Anei is punctual, reliable, and proactive! I depend on her attention to detail and prompt communication. She sends updates after each visit, often with photos, so I can see that my kitties are happy and well cared for! I totally trust her with the care of my kitties while I’m away - she ensures they are fed, have clean litter, and receive the affection and playtime they need.”
14. Marvel J.
“Marvel is great, we’re now repeat customers thanks to his communication and reliability. We will book again and would recommend his services to others as well. Thank you!”
15. Emily J.
“Emily is the next best thing to having close friends/family take care of my furballs! I'm a repeat customer and will never hesitate to book her when I need someone to check in on my 3 cats. She's easy to coordinate with, responsive, helpful, and obviously truly spends time doting on them. I actually got a chuckle reading her check-in notes because everything she wrote was so spot on for each of their personalities. I can't recommend her highly enough!”
16. Yun F.
“Yun was the best sitter I’ve ever hired for my kitty. She fulfilled all of my cat’s needs, heeded all of my instructions, and was consistent in her visit times and communication. I would recommend Yun to sit a pet 10/10 times.”
17. Ming H.
“Great job! Ming is attentive, communicative, and meticulous. We are pleased she helped us with our young and energetic Birman. I recommend her and will use her services again.”
18. Liudmyla T.
“I know Liudmyla as a great, responsible and trustworthy as well as a caring person. In her life she had a cat, parrots, fish. Hosted cats and dogs for friends when they had to be away for a few days and now she has 2 cats. From what all her interaction with pets that I’ve seen - pets always trusting and feeling comfortable and happy with her. She would be a great pet sitter/walker on my opinion.”
19. Celine D.
“Celine is a model pet owner. She has two dogs, King and Maxie, who clearly love and listen to her completely. She always ensures they are fed, healthy, and well entertained, and she'll do the same for you. I know because when I went on vacation to visit a friend and needed someone to take care of my dog Fenris, Celine jumped at the chance, and the two of them had a blast. She'd send videos of them playing, kept me updated on all his meals, and even took him to a grooming session so I didn't have to reschedule. I couldn't ask for a better sitter or friend.”
20. Helena F.
“Helena was great! She was very communicative and kept me up to date on my cats. She even went above and beyond and dropped in an extra time as well as bringing a package I received up to my apartment for me! Will definitely use her again the next time I need a sitter.”
