For the last year, I have trusted Emma-Leigh as the cat sitter for my cat, Kali. I have hired her for weekends and week-long periods of time. Emma-Leigh has gone above and beyond my expectations in caregiving for my cat. For example, she takes time to play with and engage Kali in games. She has even taken time to repair Kali's cat tree without prompting from myself. She is responsible and reliable. Her attention to detail has been what sets her apart as someone I can trust. I know that when Emma-Leigh is sitting for my cat, she is in safe and capable hands. She has taken the time to get to know my cat's needs and temperament. Kali loves her, I know this because when ever she comes over, Kali will greet her with purrs, and affection. I would not hesitate to hire her again!

Carolina did a phenomenal job with taking care of our dog. We have been repeat customers bc we thoroughly trust her and the level of care she brings. She has excellent communication with us and always gives us updates on our pet. Our dog is always happy with her and we are at peace while we are away. We can't thank her enough. Always such a positive experience. Thank you Carolina!

Liliana is the best pet caregiver I’ve met. Liliana has a natural ability to connect with animals, ensuring they feel safe and comfortable under her care. She is attentive to pets’ needs, whether it be feeding, exercising, administering medication, or simply providing companionship. Her patience and understanding make her a perfect choice for any pet owner looking for someone they can trust.

About: My roommate and I both are on Rover here and we love doing dog care at my apartment here you get 2 sitters for price of 1. This job taking care of dogs is by far my favorite one as dogs are therapeutic and a joy to be around I've cared for about 18 dogs now and some repeat clients since being on here in December of 2024 and don't regret a moment at all and learned alot. I love taking care of dogs and can also handle walking the giant dog breeds and love pitbulls!! Love all dogs though they r awesome potty breaks evry 2 to 4hrs regualrly Have any questions feel free to message me and get to know you and your puppies!! 🐕 Great since I work from home im able to care for dogs quite frequently and also there's a yard just In case since accidents do happen i would want a gate up near a pool no matter what area also if their were children around always like to make sure the dog bowls are nice and clean not dirty also change the food out as well. as if us people had to eat out it clean

He did a fantastic job with a very difficult rescue doberman. My dog is particular about humans and has some serious trust issues, but John-Michael easily worked with her and helped put me at ease. My dog did great with him and it was obvious she was well taken care of while I was away. He was very communicative, took good care my dog and my house. I will definitely hire him again.

I can’t recommend my mom enough as a dog sitter. She has a natural way with animals—kind, gentle, and incredibly attentive. I’ve grown up with pets my entire life because of her, and she’s the one who taught me how to care for them with love, patience, and respect. Whether it was dogs, cats, or even the occasional rescue, she made sure every animal in our home was not only cared for but truly loved. She’s also one of the cleanest and most organized people I know, which makes a big difference when someone is trusting you with their home and their pets. She pays attention to every detail—making sure dogs are fed on time, walked regularly, and given plenty of affection and playtime. She treats every pet like they’re part of the family, because to her, they are. If you're looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and experienced to care for your dog, my mom is the perfect choice. Your pup will be in the best hands.

About: I grew up with 6 dogs that I cared for and loved with all of my heart. Dogs can expect lots of love, play, and exercise. I work from home by caring for my disabled husband and our 3 cats. I can easily fit walks check-ins and pet-sitting into my schedule. In my own home, keeping everything safe and clean for my pets is important to me. Working with your pets in their own homes will carry the same importance. I will make sure they have fun and enjoy their time, even when away from their pet parents.

Kaitlyn was amazing! She stayed in our home with our 1yo golden retriever, Ellie. We received lots of updates throughout our trip and Kaitlyn was always responsive when we needed to communicate with her. She respected our home and followed our care instructions for Ellie. We will definitely be reaching out to Kaitlyn in the future :)
