9. Adam E.
“Amazing!! Definitely will be using them again for their wonderful service and personable personalities! Literally the ONLY reason I’d consider not giving them a 5/5 is so they won’t get so booked up that they couldn’t watch my cat again.”
10. Kimari M.
“Kimari was great with my two dogs. She came to meet them a week before. She asked helpful questions. She checked in and was detailed with every visit. I felt very comfortable having her in my house and take my dogs out. I will definitely chose her again.”

12. Samuel M.
“I’m proud to recommend my little brother, Samuel Montano, as a pet sitter on Rover. He’s always been the animal guy in our family and making sure every pet felt loved. Samuel’s super patient and easygoing, and animals pick up on that right away. Even the shy ones end up sticking to him like glue. He doesn’t just pop in to feed them and leave he actually spends time with them, plays with them, and makes sure they’re happy and comfortable. Plus, he’s crazy reliable. He’ll show up when he says he will, send you plenty of pics and updates, and treat your pets like they’re his own.”

About: Hi! My name is Amy, I am a new Rover user, but I have current experience from being a Wag Caregiver. I have worked with many pups of different sizes and ages, from big and small. As well as experience for dogs who pull, oral medicine administration, special needs dog care, and puppy care! I have much love to give, and can’t wait to make beautiful bonds and memories with your cuddle buddies!! I currently work from home so I’m home 24/7. So I have lots of time and attention to give. I don’t have any pets of my own, so it would just be me and your cuddle buddy! I am available for on boardings, and I also board up to 4 dogs, at the same time! Since I board up to 4, I do AirTag all pups that join me to keep track of all of them all the time. I remove them once it’s time for bed or even just in the backyard where I can see them all, and also before they go home :) I have a large fenced backyard, so lots of space for your pup to run around and go potty in peace. I have kids that are over the age of 9, they understand boundaries when it comes to dogs. I live in a little separate home away from the main house, so it would just me and your pup most of the time.
14. Anna P.
“My cat Biff was loved, pampered , and spoiled by Anna. I will be reaching out to Anna in the future for coming trips”
15. Krystal W.
“Krystal was wonderful! So kind and responsible, she took fantastic care of my cat, who needs special care and medication. Krystal clearly has experience with animals and knew exactly how to approach my shy kitty so that my cat immediately loved her! She also sent pictures and regular updates of her visits. I would definitely book her again :)”
