3. Hope J.
“It was our first time using Rover and we were a little skeptical of the app, however, Hope was AMAZING. We hardly ever go on vacation, so leaving our cats and bird alone stressed us out. Hope was a perfect fit for us and we were able to have a stress free trip! At the meet and greet she was professional, sweet, and attentive. She asked a lot of questions to get to know us and to figure out our pets' needs. She updated us everyday with pictures and funny stories about our pets. She's hilarious and we can tell she enjoyed her time with our babies. The moment we came home from our trip we could tell our pets were well taken care of and loved. She's a true animal lover! We would without any hesitation rebook with Hope and highly recommend her!! Thank you Hope!!”

“Maria was a pleasure to meet and was very in tune with our cat from the first moment they met. She came over every day, played with her, fed her, cleaned her litter box and even took out the trash for us while we were on our vacation. She sent daily pics and even a few videos of their sessions and always kept us up to date on how Our cat was doing. She is a fantastic sitter and I cannot recommend her enough, we will definitely use her again in the future!”

9. Dahzia S.
“Some of the visits were significantly shorter than expected (7-10 minutes). I would have expected that even if they only needed that much time to go out, some extra cuddles and time would would have been spent.”
10. Tommy & Julie F.

11. Allison W.
“Allison watched my dog Churro quite frequently throughout the summer. She was always super responsive and communicative when it came to her availability and always got back to me as soon as possible. I could always tell she was active with my dog as well because he would be very tired when I would return home. I would highly recommend Allison as an exceptional pet sitter.”

20. Robyn C.
“Robyn is one of the most caring people i know especially in regards to animals. She is very attentive to the needs of her animal as well as the animals of those she comes in contact with. Animals love her gentle nature and her care. She is very giving while at the same time understands that animals sometimes need to heed so they do not hurt themselves or something else. She does so in a very direct and caring way. This woman was born to care for animals and is right at home loving them and being loved by them. I can think of no one better to have watch and care for your adored pets than this natural animal lover. ”
