Axell did a great job looking after our 2 cats. They communicated well, sent us photos and videos and did everything we asked and more. For instance, there was a wind storm while we were gone and axell cleared branches off of our walkway. One of our cats has asthma and requires medicine twice a day so we are so happy that we had such a reliable cat sitter!

Sarah is wonderful. She is very helpful and attentive with our timid cats. Sarah has patience and eventually the cats have let her pet them. I would highly recommend her. We will choose her for all of our vacations.

I have a diabetic cat who's afraid of everyone and requires insulin injections 2x a day. I have not been able to find anyone willing to take on this challenging situation, until I found Cassie on Rover. I swear she can walk on water and is a cat whisperer. She took the time to come and watch me do a glucose test and insulin injection before the first trip I've been able to take in 7 yrs , knowing she would take good care of Punkin. I was gone for 8 days and she came twice a day and Punkin didn't hide from her like she does with everyone but me. I could not recommend her highly enough and will definitely be planning longer trips, using Cassie without worrying my cat would suffer. If you want a sweet, reliable and caring cat sitter, you want Cassie on Rover.

About: I have had pets my entire life, including puppies and senior fur babies as well as cats, I'm very familiar with all aspects of pet care including bathing, grooming, administering medications, (and spoiling them with lots of play time and loves!) I work from home with a very flexible schedule that i build myself, my animal buddies always come first! I like to spend my mornings outside (enjoying some coffee) while my pets enjoy the fresh air and sunlight (unless its raining!) I have a fenced yard with a senior fur baby to keep your baby company. My chill old guy likes to sleep a lot and stays in his own area, he gets along with every animal he meets, but i can easily crate your dog if you prefer. Pets in my home stay inside unless we are doing walks/potty breaks and playtime, or if we are outside just chilling (they will never be alone outside/ i will always be there!)

About: Working as a vet assistant, groomer, trainer and sport and show handler I have built a unique set of skills that can provide your dog with an experience like no other! I am a stay at home mom with two kids in school. My day consists of staying at home so your pup will never be alone. I have a 6 foot fully fenced yard, plus a separate dog run area where I have cameras inside and out. Safety is my number one priority. Your dog will have eyes on them 24/7. Since safety is something I take very seriously these are some of the things I do to ensure your dog feels comfortable at all times. All dogs are fed separately, this includes chews and treats. Dogs are on leash if not in the fully fenced backyard. All dogs have their own drinking water to prevent any spread of illness. Food and water bowls are washed daily. The yard is chemical free, I do not use weed killer or insect sprays on the property. Pictures and updates daily to insure peace of mind while you’re away. Is your dog shy, submissive or reactive with other dogs. No problem, I have lots of areas in the house and yard where they don’t have to be apart of the group of other dogs. I have one cat who is an indoor outdoor kitty. She has grown up with multiple dogs in the house. She has been around many dogs who don’t like cats, you’ll normally see her up in the trees or on the roof. I do have two kids in the house who have grown up with dogs. Along with safety respect is also something I value. My children respect the dog’s space. If your dog doesn’t like children or is nervous around them that is no problem. I strive to make sure my children are coexisting and having little interaction with our dogs who are not child friendly. All interactions with your dog are supervised, there will not be any interactions out of sight with the children. We take dogs with all kinds of personality. While your dog is here their comfort and happiness is my priority. It’s very easy to keep your dog and the kids separated.

Xiaotong is an amazing sitter. When meeting and booking, she was responsive and caring, and asked great questions. During the time she watched my cats, she was consistent, compassionate, and meticulous in her care, giving them plenty of love and playtime. I hate leaving my cats, but would trust them to Xiaotong every time.
