We had a great first rover experience with Chelsie! She was one time for every drop-in and has great communication. Loved reading her notes and seeing photos of our cat while we were away! Highly recommend :)

Andrea did a wonderful job with our two kitties and our fish. Even my shy cat liked her immediately! She provided thorough updates and great pictures. I would absolutely trust Andrea to watch my pets again in the future.

Jenevieve is a literal angel. She was just supposed to do a drop-in to see Deku and let him out. My A/C went out the night before the scheduled visit and it’s was 100 degrees outside. Jenevieve took him to her home to watch him for the day while I was at work. If it wasn’t for her, Deku would definitely not be okay! She saved the day and saved me from so much stress during my first day at my new job! A literal lifesaver!

Kiara did an amazing job with our kitties while we were away for a few days. She was an excellent communicator, kind and very easy to work with, and our cats took to her immediately (even our suspicious younger one!). We have an older cat with some medical needs and Kiara put our minds fully at ease with her extensive experience fostering and caring for numerous animals. I would highly recommend her!

We needed a drop-in visit for a single day with only a couple days notice. Brad agreed to do it. He met with us and our dogs prior to the day of the visit and took detailed notes and got to know the boys. He sent us photos and a detailed report of the visit. We were very impressed and plan to use Brad again in the future if he's available.

Kassy did a great job with my Labrador. My furry friend has a fenced yard and is rarely on a leash. Kassy took the time to get her used to her harness before walking her.

Lisa has been cat sitting for me for over 30 years. She treats my cats as though they are her own. She has a lot of great experience with cats and dogs and is comfortable playing with them and caring for them. She has been a really good cat sitter for me whenever I’m away. She sends me pics of my kitties and that helps so much. I’ve had kittens and older cats over the years and she’s done great with them all.

Natasha was great from start to finish. She responded quickly to my original inquiry and was able to fit in a meet and greet in only about 36 hours notice. Her rates are reasonable while still providing great service. One of my dogs needed medication while I would be away, and all of my dogs have their own quirks - she handled all of this with ease and provided some great pictures to boot! There was a little bit of an upcharge due to my location but she was upfront about it and it was also reasonable, so was happy to pay it. Will definitely use her again should the occasion arise and she has the availability.

Lauren is such a great individual to have watching your pets. She's pet-sat for me for the last three years and consistently makes time to engage with my cat. She makes sure my cat is fed, her litter box is cleaned, and she's stimulated/played with. Lauren has two dogs of her own and one cat, she knows and loves animals and is very responsible! She'll take great care of your pet!
