Patrick has extensive knowledge in the pet world. He and I worked together at a pet food store, so I got to see firsthand how he interacts with all of our wonderful fur babies. He not only understands body language and how to respond, but is also knowledgeable in pet nutrition, the importance of playtime, and how to spot when something is wrong. Patrick is compassionate and has a very calming influence, understanding that pets react to our own emotional state. I trust him to take care of my pets.

Zara was prompt and took good care of our cats. She sent us a lot of pictures of the cats and the food. She played with the cats and kept them entertained. They look forward to her visits now.

Ethan is absolutely incredible! I spent my first week away from my pup in 8 years and he assured me that she was getting top-notch care and affection while I was gone through phenomenal updates, photos and messages throughout the duration of the care.

This was our second time booking Ashtyn and it was another success. Our cat got to know her better this time and acted out because he didn't want her to leave. She let me know about his behavior and worked with me to understand what was happening. She came up with a solution and it turned out fine. We're really happy everything worked out!

Monique was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was very thoughtful and attentive when meeting our pets and I can tell she really cares for animals! She even went above and beyond to ask helpful questions during the cat-sitting process to make sure that our kitties were acting normal. She also helped house do some house-sitting tasks while we were out of town so that our packages didn’t get stolen and our trash got picked up. Overall she was a 10/10 and we’ll definitely be using her again in the future if we need cat sitting!

Maria cared for my cat, Ramona, while we were away for Thanksgiving. She was easy to coordinate with, asked all the right questions during our meet and greet, and sent photos of Mo while we were gone. We will most definitely be rebooking with Maria! ❤️

Tina is the best cat sitter we have ever had. Not only highly communicative but did all of the things both asked and unasked. Our cats brush was cleaned! She’s great and we will use her exclusively for our times away from home

Miranda has been my cat sitter for the last two years. She truly adores my two cats, and enjoys spending time with them. If anything, she indulges them with more affection and playtime than I do. At least that's what they tell me. She is also extremely tidy, responsible and detail-oriented. When I leave home I always miss my cats, but I never worry about them in Miranda's care.

First time using Rover. A pleasure to meet in person. During her service, she provided clear status updates and sent plenty of photos. She is attentive and responsive. My cat Cheech definitely has a new friend. She will be my go-to person for future services. I highly recommend her services!!!

Sarah was excellent! She dropped in and checked on our very young puppy to feed her, give her a potty break and— most importantly— for some play and snuggles! She sent us picture updates and definitely made us feel better about leaving her at home.
