“Sara was wonderful. She helped us out last minute and was super patient with our anxious dog. She worked with him each time to get more comfortable with each other that by the end, he didn’t even bark at her. We’re super grateful for her kindness and communication.”
“Brenda did an awesome job looking after my two cats, notoriously shy, she got them to hang out and play! I already asked her to do another drop-in, she’s super reliable and the cats seemed very happy with how much time she spent with them!”
“Victoria was great! Quick/easy to communicate, check ins were on time and as discussed, and she seemed to take great care of my cat while I was gone! I will use her in the future.”

I am very careful and safety-conscious, so you can be sure I will leave your home secure and comfortable for your pets when I visit.
“Tara took care off my girl very well while I was on vacation. She is a long haired Persian cat that needs extra care such as eye cleaning and hair brushing and Tara did an excellent job with it. She was very communicative and sent a lot of detailed info and photos to ease my worries. I highly recommend Tara to all pet parents.”

“Yesenia is awesome and has extensive experience with both cats and dogs. She was so patient with Axl as he is a puppy and a bit shy around people. She is responsive, has great communication during check-ins and take lots of pics. Thank you Yesenia 😃!”
“It was a pleasure working with Michael! This was my first experience on Rover and he made it a great one. Michael not only medicated, fed, and played with with my moody cat, but he also sent adorable photos and detailed updates to ease my mind during my travel. I will definitely call him again (and you should too)!”

Sara was the best cat sitter i could have booked. She was super patient with my cats especially our skiddish girl. The fact she took time to give each cat attention which is difficult since all of them are attention hogs. She left detailed reports and lots of pictures of our fur babies.If i need another sitter im definitely having her come back if shes available
We feel very fortunate to have found Jill! One of the things we appreciated right away is that she lives in our neighborhood, which made scheduling and communication very convenient. From the moment she came over for the meet-and-greet, it was obvious that she was completely comfortable with both cats and dogs. She asked thoughtful questions, took the time to get to know our pets, and immediately inspired confidence. Jill has cared for our pets twice now, including one visit with our Golden Retriever in addition to our cats. She took excellent care of everyone, sent regular, detailed updates with plenty of photos, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We also appreciated the little things, like noticing and closing windows that had been left open before we left. We are already planning to book Jill again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and communicative pet sitter.
Mari seems so nice! You know when you look at a person & can just tell they’re genuinely a good human-being? That’s how I felt about Mari & what made me feel comfortable choosing a fellow dog-lover who is intuitive, patient & understanding. She had clear communication, was supportive of mine & Maggie’s needs, & followed everything exactly how I requested. Mari did such a great job dealing w/ our 1yr old Labrador who is nervous around strangers. I highly recommend Mari & would love to have her help again in the future. Thanks for being there for us when we needed you!
Karmelita was a true godsend for our two cats. It was great having someone check on the two boys and ensuring they were okay. She provided great photos of them and gave them much needed play. Overall I feel my cats did well under her care, vs the unattended check in my neighbors previously did. I will definitely consider booking Karmelita in the future.
Brenda was awesome, we needed someone last second to drop in and hangout with our puppy. She set up a call so we could get to know each other, asked great questions, and provided photos and videos of their time together. We couldn't asked for much more. We will definitely be using her in the future.
Wow! Emily is the best sitter I’ve had in a long time. I booked her for a long visit, and was so nervous to be away from my cat. But Emily gave me reassurances by sending me photos and updates on my cats behavior. It’s a really good sign that my shy but loving kitty warmed up to her so quickly, and was even waiting for her by the window on their last visit! Emily also took care of my plants, which was so essential too. I would 10/10 hire her for your pet sitting needs, I will surely be doing the same next time I need a sitter ❤️
