1. Jessica F.
“Jessica was awesome! Our normal cat sitter had something come up and couldn't do the last couple days of our booking and we had to find an alternative fairly quickly. We were nervous about it, given that we were going on an international vacation, but we were at ease from the check-in onwards. She provided regular updates and was super communicative, and went above and beyond to care for our kitties. I would definitely recommend Jessica and use her again!”
2. Elisabeth T.
“Elizabeth did a great job watching our cat and we’d definitely consider rebooking in the future. She was very responsive and provided photos/updates.”
3. Alexa A.
“Alexa did an amazing job with our cat misty. Our girl is usually super shy and hides and she was very excited to cuddle with Alexa. So glad we chose her to help us care for our girl.”
4. Haley S.
“Haley was exceptional in caring for our dog! Our dog is overly shy/anxious and Haley was amazing in how she approached getting our dog to trust her. It wasn’t easy, time consuming, and didn’t happen in a day but kept trying until she earned our dog’s trust! She stayed longer than she needed to when our dog was being skittish to ensure she got the necessities during a visit. Haley provided updates for every session including an overview of the session, pictures, videos, and even did some training with our dog! She played with our dog/took her for walks when she noticed our dog needed to burn some energy. She also reached out to us with any questions and asked for our opinion when needed. I will definitely be using Haley to watch our dog in the future!”
5. Kelsey S.
“Kelsey is literally the best ever! I have a timid Great Dane and and Boxer Mastiff, and they love her and get so excited when I ask or tell them Kelsey’s coming today! I recently was im a bind traveling for work and Kelsey has been a lifesaver. She literally goes above and beyond without asking and I look forward to the Rover reports! Can’t say enough great things about her and definitely trust Kelsey with my furr babies.”
