10. Marybeth F.
“***FIRST TIME ROVER USER**** When my normal sitter became unavailable, unexpectantly, I had no idea what to do. I was at the point of not going away on my vacation because it was about a week away from leaving. This was my first time using Rover, and my anxiety was through the roof about the entire process and the idea of a stranger coming into my home. I chose Marybeth primarily based upon location, her photos of her and her pets and her age/experience. Upon meeting Marybeth, her overall kindness and genuine, sweet, friendly personality put me at ease immediately. She listened attentively to what my needs were and my animals routines, without trying to change or judge anything. She was promptly responsive to all of my communication prior to leaving for my trip and the duration as well. When meeting (2) of my (3) fur babies kitties (only because 1 is a scaredy cat and won't come out for anyone really), you could tell immediately that she has a love of cats and taking care of them appropriately and lovingly. I left instructions for her and she followed all of my requests (even non animal related, like bringing in my mail and checking on my refrigerator door that pops open). She was even kind enough to check on my hamster even though that was not part of the animals requested to watch. Every day while I was gone, she was on time, left me a happy little note about the status of everything and pictures of all my babies. Personally, the fear/worry/anxiety about leaving my babies as well as just someone coming in my home was enormous, and Marybeth really put that to ease for me. (I know I already mentioned that, but I figured for anyone reading this, who is on the fence about hiring through Rover). I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, kind, sweet person to take care of your precious family members while you are away. She even returned my key promptly upon my return. Thank you to her again. I am forever grateful for her.”
11. Anna M.
“Anna came in and saved the day for a last minute visit, highly recommended”
12. Charlotte W.
“Charlotte is fantastic! She watched our cat while we were away and she did an amazing job. Kept us updated and was super easy to work with. Thanks again!”
13. Meg G.
“As always, Meg is so compassionate, caring, and gentle with our kitty. She always ensures to feed her her food with her meds, and makes sure her water bowl and litter are attended to. She always spends quality time giving her lots of pets and cuddles and making her feel at ease. We couldn’t recommend Meg enough, if you choose her to watch your little fur baby, you will never be disappointed. Thank you Meg!”
14. Hannah Elizabeth T.
“I've know Hannah for a couple of years now, and in the past 8 months or so whenever I am out of town I have her look after my bearded collie Brighton. She has never let me down, and has taken great care of Brighton. He gets very excited whenever she comes to visit, and her dog Nellie plays very well with him.”
15. Rhyann S.
“Rhyann has an exceptional passion for animals and a remarkable ability to care for them. Rhyann's love for animals is truly inspiring. She has a unique ability to connect with animals, understanding their needs and personalities. I have witnessed her interact with animals of all kinds, and her patience, gentleness, and understanding of animal behavior are impressive. She would bring joy and compassion to any animal in her care.”
16. Alessia R.
“Alessia was wonderful with our shy kitty! Willow came out on the second visit and felt confident enough to come out each visit after! We are so happy that she was able to get love and cuddles while we were gone! Alessia was communicative and sent great pictures! Clearly an animal lover and cares about her clients! Will definitely be booking her services again!”
17. Emma D.
“Emma is a very responsible pet owner and pet sitter. She's cared for my cat and dog on many occasions and I always feel at ease when they are in her care. She always sends updates to make sure I know they're okay. I highly recommend Emma to anyone looking for someone reliable and compassionate to care for their pets!”
18. Kaelin G.
“Kaelin was amazing! I felt comfortable leaving my dogs in her care she is very attentive and patient and she followed all of my instructions perfectly. Kaelin frequently updated me on my dogs progress and went above and beyond to make sure my dogs were happy during my time away 🙂”
19. Rose P.
About: I rescued our staffordshire terrier/apbt mix 2 years ago and have been learning and advocating for breed education. Through travels we have assisted in boxer, rottweiler and golden doodle care. It's important to pay attention to animal cues and of course provide safety and connection. I work remote full time m-f but usually done by 430/5pm. Weekends are flexible. With advance notice I can support drop ins/walks during the day or multiple days in a row. Care is provided in clients home and I ask for care instructions, vet info and any 'house rules.' I want to be respectful and understand the baseline while I'm caring for a pet. Any restrictions, securities measures or special considerations are discussed.
20. Kathryn H.
“I highly recommend Katie to anyone looking for kind and caring pet care! I’ve known Katie for over five years and trust her to be a dependable, compassionate, and communicative person, whether you have a dog, cat, or another type of animal. Katie will always go the extra mile.”
