Anastasiia was amazing. She was punctual, responsive, and sent regular picture updates throughout the stay. Even though Matilda is a bit shy, Anastasiia was so kind and patient with her. It gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing Matilda was in such good hands. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their cats.

Jessica was great with our Cocker Spaniel!! She was timely, great communications, energetic, pictures and all-around very entertaining for Winnie. Clearly, deserving of all her 5 star reviews. Exactly what we were looking for in a sitter so we could comfortably leave Winnie for few hours while visiting the City. Also had to extend visit (due to transportation issues) without any problems. Will comfortably use again and highly recommend.

This was my first time using Rover and I was worried about how it would go, but I'm so glad I gave it a try and found Xinyu! She is friendly, positive, and considerate, and really went above what was asked (thank you for taking my packages inside for me..!). Xinyu was diligent with the schedule and followed care instructions to the letter. I would definitely book her again next time I'm out of town. 🖤🐈‍⬛

About: I’ve grown up taking care of my own dog and cat (both now at my family house) since they were babies. I work remotely, so I can give your pet as many pee/poop/walk breaks as they desire! I also have experience caring for pets in my apartment in the past. I work remotely, so I can allocate more time to take care of your pet throughout the week. I’m available for boarding / dog walks during the weekdays! I live on the second floor so it’s easy for your dog to go up and down. In my home, I provide a clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment where pets can relax and feel comfortable. I supervise them closely, make sure they get plenty of exercise and enrichment, and do my best to make their stay feel like a home away from home.

I am so happy I left my two cats with Abdelkader! It was my first trip away from my boys since I adopted them and I was an anxious mess, but Abdelkader eased my tension because he was just so wonderful with my boys. They loved him and I came back home to some very happy cats. I appreciated the regular updates and photos he sent, which allowed me to enjoy my time away knowing my sweet boys were happy and well cared for.

About: I love dogs (and cats!) I just love them so much :) My husband and I have cared for our disabled Labrador since she was 5 months old (she’s now 7), so I’m very comfortable with special needs and senior dogs. I also grew up with a dog so I am experienced with puppies and basic training. I genuinely love dogs and treat every one like my own! I’m home full-time, so I have plenty of time to give your dog lots of attention, playtime, walks, and care. I’m available throughout the week for both daycare and boarding. I live in an apartment with an elevator. I have plenty of space for play, meals, and cuddles, and I make sure every dog feels comfortable and cared for. I follow each pet’s routine closely and adapt to their individual needs, whether they’re active, chill or somewhere in between.

Anastasiia was amazing and we will definitely be booking with her again! She took great care of our cats and made sure that they were as comfortable as possible while we were gone. Our cats are usually quite skittish around new people but came out to say hi on her first visit, so if they could talk I’m sure they’d give her 5 stars as well.

Melissa took great care of our cats during her first time sitting for us. Communication was smooth, and the cats were well cared for while we were away. She also went out of her way to bring in a bunch of packages and registry gifts that arrived, which we really appreciated. A very helpful and dependable sitter. Thank you!

Nothing feels better as a cat parent when you’re away from home than knowing your cat is in the care of a trusted and thoughtful sitter. My cat, Apollo, absolutely adores Jady. He’s incredibly selective about the people he chooses to spend time with, so his affection speaks volumes. Jady cares for Apollo as if he were one of her own cats, and I truly appreciate the love, attention, and patience she gives him. Knowing he is so well cared for gives me tremendous peace of mind. I can leave home feeling happy and reassured, knowing that Apollo is in the best hands possible. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust Jady with him again in the future.
