Nicholas cared for my two cats, Miss David Ortiz and Miss Annie Bee, while I was away for 8 days. He kept the girls happily fed and was extremely detailed in his visit recaps — I felt confident that they were in good hands with Nicholas and highly recommend him.

Tamara took great care of our (cat) baby Ike for a solid 9 days. He is shy with new people but she did a great job of making him feel comfortable and he was in great spirits when we got home. Thank you!

Madelyn has watched my dog for me on multiple occasions when I needed an extra hand and my dog absolutely loves her! She’s responsible, kind, and has a way with dogs. My dog and I can’t wait to have her help out again in the future!

Leeanne is really professional and really knows what she is doing! She did a great job with my dog who is a little nervous and slower to warm up to new people.

Emily put me at ease by sharing little stories about her visits to see my kitty on the Rover card. It was the highlight of my day to hear a little about how Sadie was responding to her. Also she came on time and communicated in advance when there was a work conflict. I highly recommend her.

Ian did such a great job with our pets! We recently moved to the area and were anxious to find a pet sitter that could handle our finicky cat and 85 lb german shepherd. Ian seemed to have experience with larger dogs so we went ahead and booked him. He did a great job! I know our GS got lots of long walks while we were away and we didn't have to worry about either of our pets at all! Thanks Ian!

Chelsea did an amazing job with my cat, Willow. My cat can be a bit particular when it comes to sitters but Chelsea was so patient with her and gave her space to get comfortable with her. I came home to a happy kitty because of her. I’ll definitely be booking Chelsea again in the future!

Joie took great care of our cats while we were out of town. She gave them tons of attention and sent us the cutest photos. It was great to feel like our babies in great hands, and she was very communicative when our flight was delayed and we thought we might need to ask her to come back!

This is the third time I’ve left my cats in Rachel’s care, because I know that she is trustworthy and I don’t have to worry while I’m gone. I remain so delighted and impressed at her thoughtful updates, and how she goes the extra mile to befriend my shy cats who hide under the bed. It’s just such a relief to not have to stress when you’re gone, and Rachel delivers that flawlessly!

Our cats clearly loved Ann and thrived under her care (as did our plants!) and we were so grateful that they were in good hands when we were gone. Ann sent pictures after each visit of the cats snuggling and playing with her, and when we returned home they did not display any anxiety or stress typical after being away from them. Highly recommend Ann to take care of your kittens!

Zora is an awesome petsitter! She’s watched my dog Cola and my cat Felix a few times and each time, they seem sad to see her go. Her love of animals is genuine, and she will care for your pets as if they’re her own. I highly recommend Zora for all of your pet needs!
