“Vanessa took great care of our cat Teddy while we were away. We appreciated her questions in our meet and greet and her attention to detail in his care. Teddy misses her already!”
“Laura was very attentive and communicated well with us the whole time. She tried her best to engage with our kitty even though he’s shy, and always updated us with a well-detailed rover card after each visit.”
“Jasmine was such an energetic and patient sitter! I needed to find a sitter last minute for a weekend getaway and Jasmine was prepared to be flexible as well as thorough. Luna 🌑 is a shy kitty and he needs lots of patience and good energy, which Jasmine easily demonstrated early on! I also appreciated how communicative she was and how understanding she came off. Luna and I are so grateful for your love and care! 🩶”
“Charlie has been amazing with my dog Oliver. He walks him during the day and is always reliable, attentive, and caring. I can tell Oliver genuinely enjoys his time with him, which gives me peace of mind while I’m busy. It’s not easy trusting someone with your dog, but Charlie makes it effortless. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and kind dog walker.”
About: Hello, my name is Bianca I am currently a senior in high school. I have a cat named Cleo she is 13 years old now, I got her was she was just a baby from a family friend. At first she was shy and would pee on everything, but she was my birthday present and my favorite person in the world so with patience and love I cared for her when my parents were ready to get rid of her. Now Cleo is an calm cat, who loves to be pet by everyone and I think that’s because of the patience and care that I showed her. Every morning when I wake up at 7:00 am and I feed my cat. At around 7:20 am I go to the gym for around 1 hour and come back home around 10:00 am. I feed my cat some treats and refill her water at 12:00pm. Her next feeding time is 5:00pm. I have a indoor cat, she eats twice daily but sleeps most of the day. She sleeps in a air conditioned room, with 2 blankets.
“Highly recommend Kristin! She took amazing care of my cats and followed all instructions perfectly. She is communicative, sent great photos, and handled extra requests like mail and cleaning with ease. My cats were happy and safe under her care. I will definitely be booking her again in the future!”
“This is our second time hiring Tedy to watch after our cat Baloo, and we couldn’t be happier! Shes so kind, incredibly communicative and has a natural gift with animals. We felt so assured our entire trip abroad that Baloo was in the best hands. Thank you!”
“Xiaoying is literally the best person for the job. She went up and above with caring for our 3 kitties. It was our first trip away and for a 2 week period so we were very nervous about leaving them alone. We have a 17yr old male senior cat with specific dietary needs and two 4 yr old male and female cats who need lots of play and attention. We booked her for the morning and evening and she played with them, fed them and cleaned their litter boxes. Our lil Luna is very wary of strangers but she loved Xiaoying and even gave her head bumps. We received detailed reports and so many pictures which we loved! The best sitter!!!”
“Betty did an excellent job taking care of my cat. She’s very responsive, professional, and easy to work with, and her notes and pictures were great. I’m already booking her for another round of cat sitting.”

“Catalina was amazing! My cat Louie really enjoyed her company. She was responsive and punctual with her visits. I felt very comfortable with our first meet & greet, her energy and love for animals radiates in the kind care she was able to provide for my old man. 100/10 would book again!”

Xiaoying took great care of our cat during a week of drop-in visits. She gave us peace of mind by sending LOTS of photos after every visit. She consistently fed our cat, refreshed the water, cleaned the food and water dishes, and spent time playing with her. We came home to a happy cat and would definitely book Xiaoying again!
Dorothy and our cat Bamboo got along great. She allowed us to enjoy our weekend away without worrying and took great care of our little guy. We will definitely be asking her to watch him the next time we go away and feel relieved to have an animal lover watch our cat .
Charlie very gracefully accommodated our last minute request to drop in on our two cats, which we really appreciate. He did an outstanding job ensuring they had food, water, and litter, and was very responsive. We loved receiving updates on the cats every day. Would book again if I have the opportunity.
Paula was amazing! This was our first time using Rover and she took such good care of our babies. We have two cats that she visited and fed every morning while we were on vacation . She was really responsive, responsible, friendly , loving and kind . I got videos and photos everyday along with updates . She was a blessing . I was totally at ease knowing she was caring for our boys . I highly recommend her !
Another fantastic set of visits with Mark! All three of our cats love him and he goes above and beyond to make them feel comfortable while we’re away. My wife and I look forward to his messages, photos, and videos - they add so much joy and comfort to our trips!
Laura is very attentive and took great care of my cat, Bunny! Bunny had some mild diarrhea right before we left for our trip, but thanks to Laura’s attentive care, she was back to her healthy self in no time. She also kept me updated and took lots of pics which I really appreciated. Thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️
Jennifer was fantastic—even our most bashful cat, who had to be allowed to eat in the bedroom on her first day, was showing up to greet Jen at the front door by the end of her gig. We got plenty of photos from each session, and they were happy and full of energy when I finally came home. I would definitely ask her to take care of our cats again!
Our cat Teddy was glad to see Vanessa again for a couple days while we were out of town. She took good care of him and provided updates and photos. Vanessa is easy to work with, and we appreciated her prompt and thorough communication before, during, and after her visits as needed. Thank you!
Emily took such wonderful care of my cats, Tigerlily and Dante, and we are all very grateful for her. This was our first time leaving our cats behind. We were nervous but Emily made the whole experience completely stress-free with her kindness, consistent updates, and genuine love for animals. Tigerlily is usually pretty shy, and Dante loves attention, but somehow Emily made both of them feel so comfortable and cared for. She sent sweet photos and messages that really reassured me they were happy, and getting lots of love while we were away. When we came home, both cats were relaxed and had clearly enjoyed their time with her. It’s obvious that Emily genuinely cares about the animals she watches, and that kind of trust and warmth means everything. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and thoughtful cat sitter. Five stars without hesitation!
This is our second time hiring Tedy to watch after our cat Baloo, and we couldn’t be happier! Shes so kind, incredibly communicative and has a natural gift with animals. We felt so assured our entire trip abroad that Baloo was in the best hands. Thank you!
