“Megan stayed overnight at my apartment while caring for my 2 cats, one of which requires daily medicine. Megan sent daily pictures and let the cats lay all over her. She was responsive and asked good questions during the meet and greet.”


5. Alicja B.
About: Growing up we had a German Shepherd that my sibling and I trained from a puppy, and one later on that was 2 when we got her. We fostered a rat terrier that was on daily meds and I even had a rabbit. I have been occasionally dog and cat sitting for friends and family for the last 10 years. My schedule is extremely flexible as I am in between jobs at the moment. I am available for daily visits or overnight care as necessary. Taking care of someone’s pet is a great responsibility I take seriously. By following owner instructions, leaving a status report and even taking a picture if so desired, I can let the owner know their pet was safe and enjoyed spending time with me.


6. Zack L.
“Zack always helps me out when my dog needs a walk, and sits for him when I'm away. Barney loves Zack, and I think Barney gets excited to see him. Never have had any issues with Zack hes very respectful and caring. He would be great edition to any pet family.”


7. Sandra K.

“Sandy was an amazing care taker for my easily stressed kitty. She is very reliable and went above and beyond to make sure Koko and myself as a worried pet parent are comfortable. I highly recommend Sandy as a pet sitter.”


8. Allison D.
“I would recommend Allison to care for your pet. She was very receptive to our dog's personality. Allison interacted with him by playing fetch with him, cleaning up after him as well as feeding him. She got down on the ground to be at his level, talking to him lovingly and giving him hugs. She was very responsible whenever she would take care of him by making sure he had food (at the appropriate times) as well as water. Allison is a very responsible and loving pet caregiver.”




9. Theresa P.


“Teresa did a great job cat sitting my six cats. She sent me pictures daily and everybody was happy when I got home. Thanks Tresa”


10. Marnie H.

“Marnie was absolutely wonderful with Frida. She sent pictures everyday, which really made me feel like Friday was being well taken care of. Frida can be a little shy at first but she loved Marnie and I will absolutely have Marnie take care of her again in the future!”


11. Shannon P.

“Shannon is amazing! She loves animals and has taken great care of our big orange tabby. We have such peace of mind and confidence when Shannon is helping us out!”


12. Laura B.

“Laura is an amazing cat sitter! She took such good care of Chili and really paid attention to her habits and personality. She was super thoughtful and gentle, and it was clear she genuinely cared. She sent lots of cute photos and videos that showed how comfortable and happy Chili was with her. Her visit notes were detailed, warm, and full of love. Laura really knew how to interact with Chili and made her feel safe and loved. She’s truly a wonderful and caring sitter.”


13. Giselle R.

“Giselle is a wonderful petsitter! She’s watched our two cats twice and has always taken great care of them. She takes wonderful photos and leaves descriptive rover cards. She also helped out with a few other household tasks (mail, watering plants, etc) which was amazing. I’d highly recommend her to anyone as a petsitter!”


14. Kelly S.

“Kelly was fantastic with my LuLu! She has some anxiety being in new places and does not get along with other cats but Kelly was able to make accommodations and was so patient with her.”


15. Giada W.

“Giada was great with my cat, Apollo. She played with him and gave him social interaction while I was gone and also administered his medication. She was very easy to work with and a great sitter!”




16. Yesica R.

“Yesi was absolutely great with our two cats and did a phenomenal job house sitting. She took care of everything perfectly and went above and beyond to take extra precautions during the Covid-19 pandemic. She even took the initiative to do some tasks like watering plants that we did not ask of her. Overall we were extremely impressed and will definitely be repeat customers!”


17. Kathleen W.
“Kathleen is absolutely wonderful! She’s cared for my elderly, sometimes finicky tabby several times and always does an amazing job. Kathleen is gentle, patient, and follows instructions exactly, which gives me total peace of mind. My cat adores her — and that’s saying a lot! She took the time to understand my cat’s needs and patiently built trust — something not everyone has been able to do. I highly recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a kind and reliable sitter.”


18. Michael M.
“Hired Mikey on a recommendation. What an amazing kid. He was so mindful to do exactly as i asked for my retired police dog. Very prompt & polite. Even got pictures of him playing with Neo. Super nice touch. Don't let his age or not long on Rover have you pass Mikey over. You will NOT regret hiring him!”


19. Nicole S.

“Great job, no issues, very nice.”


20. Ana F.
About: I’ve always had a pet as a child and going into my adulthood. I love them so much and wouldn’t trade it for anything else! I’m currently part time at the hospital and wanted to get back into pet sitting again because it helped me get my steps in and gave me a rewarding feeling! I follow my clients instructions and let them know if I have any questions. I am very friendly to pets and love to learn more about new friends.
