Thank you Anastasia, for taking good care of my babies. Also, Thank you for being so easy to get a hold of when I had questions. Your service gave me so much peace. I have hesitated to go on vacation, but since I found you, I know they will be well taken care of and I can go on vacation stress free.

This was our first time using rover for our 2 cats. They are super anxious kitties and Natalie was awesome. She kept me updated on them and I didn’t have to worry about a thing!

I highly recommend Abby if you are seeking responsible, loving and reliable care for your pet. Abby followed instructions and took an interest in my kitty. She sent daily photographs and communicated consistently. I will definitely book Abby again.

About: Hi there! My name is Jordan R. and I love taking care of dogs :) My family has always had dogs growing up from big to small, and have been my best friends. My roommate also has a dog and I love to play, walk with them, teach them tricks, and have fun with them!

About: Who better than a veterinarian to take care of your best buddies while you're away? I am a new DVM graduate, and am happy to take care of your pets, no matter how old or young, especially those with special needs! I am certified in dog/cat CPR, and am comfortable providing any care needed. *Please note*: My providing pet sitting/dog walking/pet care services does NOT constitute a VCPR, and I cannot provide medical advice unless a VCPR is explicitly established in accordance with NY State Law* I prefer to stay in the client's home especially for dogs as this is generally much more comfortable for the dog to stay in their own environment. For overnight stays, I like to meet the dogs beforehand with owners present. This way they are assured it is okay to have me in their space for staying with them.

I had a great experience! Rachel stopped by to feed my cats while I was away, and everything went perfectly. Rachel followed all instructions, sent updates, and made sure my cats were happy and comfortable. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend!

He did a fantastic job of taking care of our girls while we were gone. They were fed, watered, played with, and poops cleaned up. We came home to some very happy cats.

Briana, and her little boy, always exceed expectations. My animals will be asking me to go back on the road just so they can see her again. Rover hasn’t recognized livestock yet, but Briana does!

About: I have 6+ years of taking care of my 2 jack Russell’s, neighbors dogs + cats in 3 different states and my boyfriends parents 2 cats (1 disabled). Promptly giving medicine to those animals in need for specific time, and patience tending to their attentions and needs. I work full time remote M-Thursday 8am-4pm with an hour and half lunch break each day. I work 3x a week part time on site and can be flexible as needed. I have a high energy dog (Jack Russell) that requires a lot of assertiveness and strict use of instruction. But at the same time requires rewards and playtime. I love to care for animals, but also care about the safety of myself, and owners property always keeping that at a #1 priority of my surroundings and the pets safety and better interest of the owner.

Cortney came to the house to meet Teagan before we went away-the longest trip we’ve taken since he joined the family, and I was approaching basket-case level anxiety about it. I was immediately relieved after meeting Cortney and seeing Teag warm right up to her! She sent pics and messages about him everyday. And it’s no small detail that she’s a vet tech and knows how to assess an animal’s health! I hope Cortney is available for our future trips!! Teagan was happy to see us back, but he’s still a little cranky about us being away?

I am very understanding person considering i’ve had a lot of pets and also come from a big family. i’ve taken care of neighbors animals for a while and never had a complaint. pet care fits in my schedule because i pet sit part time. i am a full time college student but on weekend and nights i dog sit. In the summer i can dog sit full time since i wont be in school from weekdays to weekends. I care for pets in my clients home whatever way they need me to. If there pet is on a routine I stick to that routine to make sure when my client comes back they don’t have to start over with a new routine for their pets.

About: Well hello everybody! I have owned and cared for cats my whole life! I would consider myself an expert even with the most challenging kitties and cats of all ages. Most of the cats I have had as pets have been special needs as well so please don’t think your little fur baby is too “difficult” for me! Also, I have been professionally taking care of pets all of my whole life. at most I’ve had 15 cats, 4 dogs, 1 turtle and 1 lizard. poop doesn’t scare me and neither does piddle! I have also had a plethera of pets that had special needs. therefore, if your pet requires special care, I am 100% willing to do that to ensure that you’re comfortable and that your fur-baby is too ☺️ Elderly pets are no worry. If your pet sprays I don’t wish to board them mainly because I don’t want their potty scent throwing off my animals. I have 3 cats of my own at my house. if your pet doesn’t agree with cats boarding probably won’t be the best solution for you! I have a completely open schedule that allows me to be around for you and your pet needs almost everyday of the week. I’m awake around the clock and don’t mind working with odd hours either! I would refer to the pet owners wants, wishes & concerns and of course treat them like as if they were my own little fur baby!

About: I've owned multiple cats, and dogs including a plotthound, and a Doberman. I had a pit bull and watch my mother's cattahoula, and other mixed breed dog Lucy. I've been to training classes with dogs, and understand animals very well. I'm extremely compassionate, and can pick up on animals emotions, and see there needs. We've owned animals since I was 5, and it was one of the best things about growing up in our household. Currently there are no animals in the household. At the moment I have a completely open schedule I typically work tech contracts along with other contracts most recently working remotely for various companies. A small kids pool in the summer, walk to the park, regular training, only natural and safe treats. I dehydrate my own healthy treats, We play often, and are continuously teaching positive behaviors.
