Julia was the best cat sitter I’ve ever had! She was so communicative and spent extra time with my kitties. I have an elder cat and she did an amazing job administering her meds. Will definitely be hiring her again. 10/10 recommend for other cat parents!

Olivia was amazing with my dog, Finley!! She was great with communication, keeping me updated while I was out of town. I could tell from all the pictures he was very comfortable with her and had a great time. She also was willing to add a last minute drop in when my flight was delayed returning home!! Highly recommend!!

Dani made our first rover experience AMAZING. We had an event in Houston that involved us being gone from 3pm-11:30pm so she did two drop-ins for us. She attached multiple photos to each drop-in card and our golden guy looked so happy. Thank you, Dani!!! We will definitely be a returning customer!

Waqas was exceptional in every way. From the initial meet-and-greet, it was clear that he was not only knowledgeable but also genuinely caring and attentive to my pet’s needs. Throughout the sitting period, Waqas provided regular updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease. My cats were well taken care of, and it was evident that went above and beyond to ensure their comfort and happiness. The communication was seamless, and Waqas was always prompt in responding to messages. I especially appreciated their flexibility with scheduling and their thoughtful approach to following my pet's routine. I highly recommend Waqas for anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter. The level of care and attention my pet received was outstanding. I will definitely be using Rover again for future pet sitting needs!

If I could leave Jackmar 10⭐️s I would! We had a last minute trip and she was very flexible in accommodating us. Our Lola is an English Bulldog and it’s hard to find a sitter willing to take on her needs/behaviors. No hesitation on Jackmar’s part. You can tell she is an experienced sitter. Loved having her watch our Lola!

I can't say enough wonderful things about Bella! She is an incredibly attentive and kind dog sitter who goes above and beyond in every way. From the moment we met, I knew my pup was in the best of hands. Bella's attentiveness to every detail, from feeding schedules to playtime preferences, put my mind at ease. What truly sets Bella apart is her genuine love for animals and her exceptional communication skills. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, so I always knew how my dog was doing. It was clear that my dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for under Bella's watch. If you're looking for a dog sitter who is reliable, caring, and treats your pet as if they were her own, pick Bella. I wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone who wants peace of mind and a happy pet while they’re away.

Michael was great! He was communicative and very attentive to our cats needs, and went above and beyond in several respects including giving oral medication to one of our cats. He was very conscientious and made sure everything was in good order when we returned, including putting out trash, relining trash bags, recycling pet food cans, and sweeping up stray cat litter. Our very shy cat really took to Michael (they all did), as evidenced by photos of her coming out to greet him each visit. The cats were in very good spirits when we returned. We will definitely use Michael again and highly recommend him!

About: I grew up with schnauzers, have experience with breeds such as boxers, rottweilers, bully mixes, doodles (of all sizes), australian shepherds as well as small dogs such as shi tzus and yorkies. I like to match the pet’s personality, whether that’s going for a casual walk, a run, play time or chill time. Whatever makes them the happiest. I’ve always enjoyed taking care of pets whether it’s my own or others. I understand when owners want their animals to be with people during the day and to be taken care of, which is why I do this. If they’re in my clients home, I always start with letting the pet know who I am and come up to me first and spend sometime getting comfortable with me. If they need walked, I like to do that first to get their endorphins going and so we can come back and play/hang out to tire them out and

I wholeheartedly recommend Kelly. 🐶 She has been taking care of our dog, Finn, for over 5 years after rescuing him. Her dedication and love for animals are unmatched. Kelly is incredibly responsible with him, Finn gets plenty of exercise and gets well-fed. 🐾 Finn adores her and is always excited to be with her. ❤️ You can trust her to treat your pets like her own. - Dan W.
