“Always great working with Tamara! The boys got wonderful care and I love her pics and updates. Also she was very flexible with some scheduling changes that we had which we appreciated!”
“Chelsea always does an amazing job taking care of my cat. She sends detailed updates and photos at each visit and is so easy to communicate with. I feel so much better traveling knowing she is watching my kitty!”
“Nicholas is the BEST cat sitter I have ever found for my cat Aries. My cat has a big personality and loves attention. Nicholas gives him all the love and affection while also making sure to maintain the food and litter while I am away. He is also on a prescription diet and Nicholas follows the important feeding schedule perfectly. It gives me such great peace of mind knowing my little talkative fluff ball is being so well taken care of. Thank you!”
“Alexander took really great care of our cat. He spent time playing with her and followed our instructions perfectly. He was easy to communicate with and sent several sweet pictures of her each visit. Sometimes pets seem stressed when you come home from a vacation, but we came home to a calm & happy kitty.”
“Leila was wonderful with my two kittens! They’re usually pretty shy but warmed right up to her on her first drop-in. She sent pictures/updates each day and took great care of them. I would recommend Leila to anyone looking for a responsible, trustworthy petsitter.”
“Awanti was great! Super easy to communicate with and even helped clean up a small mess my cat made of our christmas tree. I will definitely be using her again”
“Willow am is WONDERFUL! He is attentive and caring and my Shiba who is always great at warming up to new people took to him right away. His communication style is thorough and timely. I would certainly recommend William to others.”
“Patchareeporn saved us by helping us out last moment. Our cat has totally accepted her. He will be mad that I will be the one feeding him today and not her”
“Erin was great with Pepper! She was prompt so Pepper could stay on schedule, asked clarifying when something was unclear, sent us updates! Overall, it’s clear Pepper loves Erin and Erin loves Pepper!”
“Sarah was flexible, reliable, and very communicative. My cat definitely struggles with some separation anxiety and frequently seems agitated when I get home from a trip, but I came home to a happy kitty thanks to Sarah! I would absolutely book her again.”

“Jackie watched our (anxious) rescue cat while we were away on a long trip. She sent wonderful photos and took great care of him! Came home to a very happy and relaxed cat!”
“Haviland takes great care of our kitties taking the time to play with them and give them plenty of love in addition to feeding and cleaning up after them. Highly recommend Haviland for her care and attention to detail!”
“This is my third time booking with Caris - this time we were out of town for a long trip, and it was such a relief to know our kittens were in such good care! She always is very communicative, takes lots of pictures, and sends detailed updates. We will continue to book with her whenever she’s available!”
“Carol was an amazing dog sitter and walker. I always worry when it comes to my reactive Shiba Inu but Carol truly took my instructions to heart and I really felt at ease. Bonus is that she took excellent update photos too!”
Columbia Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Reyhan was wonderful! She took excellent care of our two cats when we travelled for 10 days. At each check-in she not only took basic care of our cats but also played with them, shared adorable photos, and alerted us early about potential issues with their energy levels or food. They turned out to be just fine, but we appreciated knowing that they were being cared for by someone who was so attentive. We felt at ease when we were on our vacation. Thank you, Reyhan!
Fanny took great care of my three kitty babies while I was away. She was responsive, flexible, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire stay. I really appreciated the updates she shared and her thoughtfulness. It gave me peace of mind knowing my babies were in such good hands. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, dependable, and caring cat sitter. She’s the best!
