5. Miranda S.
“It was my first time using Rover for drop-in visits with Felix. He is very afraid of strangers!! Miranda communicated well with me, updated me on his behaviour, and sent me pictures after each visit. I really appreciated the way she gave him the space and time he needed to get used to her. Thank you, Miranda.”

7. Jiayu K.
“Jiayu was such a hit with our cat, Hagrid, during the meet and greet! She was very keen on cat behaviours, as well as very natural with her interactions. While we were on vacation, she was excellent with consistent kitty updates. Her photo/video content was phenomenal, and we looked forward to the next one she would send. Highly recommend Jiayu as a pet sitter 🐈⬛🙌🏻😻”

11. Shaena T.
“Came last minute later in the evening to help put with an emergency I had at work. I really appreciate the fast response, the willingness to go right away and 'play it by ear' attitude as she found her way into my place, found their leashes and food and walked around as it was getting close to dark out. Thanks again!”
12. Maryam G.
“I really hate leaving my kitties for more than a day or so but Maryam was so nice and such a natural even from first meeting them that I felt much more at ease!
