“Andrea made our first vacation using Rover a breeze! We had previously never used a sitter outside of friends or family, so we were a little nervous. But Andrea came to meet us and our pets beforehand, she was very attentive and kind. She was on time for every check in and left us a note with pictures every time. She was easy to communicate with and quick to respond. We highly recommend Andrea and her services. She left us feeling at ease while we were away. When we got home, everything was perfect and our pets were happy and healthy. Thank you so much!!”

“Jessica is amazing. I finally was able to go away for a few days. I’m always worried about my one diabetic cat. Jessica handled everything perfectly. I will definitely be using her again now that I have the freedom to travel! FYI - She took care of all 3 fur babies!”

“Kristen is by far the best sitter we have ever had for our cats. A total cat girl and you can she actually loves our cats. She is overly thorough and has a lot of pride in her services and it shows. We are so grateful for her flexibility and willingness to step in when we are away.”

About: I’ve grown up with 3 pups of my own who are back home in Philadelphia while I’m in medical school! My roommate of 4 years had a senior cat of her own, so I am well versed in the needs of both cats and dogs. :) I’m currently in my 3rd year of medical school doing my rotations throughout the Palm Beach area! Dropping in on some furry friends or spending the night with them is something I’d love to be able to do when not in the hospital :) I’ll treat your pets like my own! They’ll get all the hugs, kisses, and snuggles - whatever they need. Safety is my priority and they will be treated like family.
“Isabela was a great cat sitter for our feline family. We had never tried a professional sitter before and were anxious about the experience especially the care of our cats. Isabela was very patient with us and our fur babies and made the visits as stressful as free as possible. We look forward to having her for our future trips and I’d bet our fur babies are excited to see her again as well.”

About: I’ve grew up with animals since I can remember. I had to stop myself from brining home every animal that needed a home haha. Being around animals so often, mainly dogs and cat has taught me not only how to properly take care of them but also understand them while building a loving and trusting bond. Yolenny is the founder of a dedicated pet care service called Moos faithful hounds LLC. Her inspiration to Create this business was inspired her profound love for animals and in memory of her French bulldog, Moo Friend. She believes every animal is unique and deserves personalized care. My passion for animals and the drive to begin training blossomed as I cared for both my dogs, Nala and Moo. However, Nala my Labrador was what sparked my interest to start training. Through Nala, I learned the foundations of dog training. Over time, through formal courses and hands-on experience, I discovered a true calling: connecting with each dogs unique personality and needs, so I can help them thrive. As a military service member, my mission is to bring my love, knowledge, and experience to every pet I care for, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and understood When I provide my services, safety is always my priority. Safety protocols can be different for each pet. With that being said, I always communicate with the owner to understand and adjust safety protocols based on each pet's needs.
“Mackenzie has always watched our feisty, 7 yr old cat & she was very quickly able to warm up to our new, little Daisy! She watched the girls through the holidays & it was obvious from the photos how much they love her!”

“Stephanie was detail-oriented, and she kept us updated throughout her drop-in visits. Zee was so happy to see her. We could not be happier with her services!”

About: My whole life there’s always been a furry member of my family. My mom currently has a 9 year old rescue pit who needs special attention throughout the day I’ve dressed wounds on his paws, I’ve fed him and bathed him and I’ve given medication when needed. I’ve taken him into my home a few days at a time while my mom works and my kids have learned how to care for dogs as well . Rover fits perfectly in my daily schedule. I work part time and have plenty of free range with my time . Whenever I’m home I’m always just tending to my kids or the house rover will be a fun addition to my schedule I don’t have a fenced yard but there is a dog friendly park right down the street from my house which is where I plan to do most play time. I also have 2 small children in my home but they’ve been around dogs their whole lives so they know how to act with animals and how to treat them with respect
“Could not be any more appreciative of Tony's caring for Leo over the past month. She shares great feedback and suggestions after every visit and has been extremely helpful.”

“Catherine is fantastic, I really feel like she cared for my 2 cats like her own. I will be continuing to work with her in the future. I really appreciate everything!!!”

Central Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jorden has taken care of my dog and cat many times now for various weekend trips and my longest two week vacation. She has always been readily available and great with the animals. My dog is a big German shepherd and she handles him with ease and even does his eye drops twice daily. Jorden is very reliable and will always be my go-to sitter.

Alexa is amazing!!! She not only came to rescue when we needed last minute help but went above and beyond to take care of my cats. I really appreciate her communication, photos and that she even cleaned up when it wasn’t asked of her! Will definitely have Alexa help watch my little angels again asap!

Leah is so great with my puppy and two other furry siblings. She’s quick to respond and communicates very well when she’s arriving and leaving. She’s a tremendous help with my pets and they love spending time with her. I HIGHLY recommend Leah and would give her more stars if I could especially now that she’s hired for weekly visits!
Andres was an amazing cat sitter! He followed all instructions carefully and treated my cat with great care. I truly appreciated how reliable and attentive he was throughout the visit. I’m especially grateful he was available last minute when I needed to be away, and I would absolutely book him again! Thank you!💖

Evan was awesome with my two cats. They loved him and appreciated his playing. Evan provided extremely thorough and detailed updates to me in each of his visits and asked any clarifying questions he needed to. I would highly recommend Evan to anyone looking for a sitter in the area.
