“Courtney was absolutely a savor for me. She did the dropped in and checked on Mello for me while I was out of town. She loved him like he was hers, she treated him so kindly and did an amazing job. She was very respectful, not only to me, my wife and Mello but also to our home. We would love to book her again whenever the time comes.”
“Abigail is great to have come watch our cat Henry! He is very needed and loves to have someone come by and play. Abigail does a great job at following the instructions and provides so many good photos of her visits!!”
“Deanna is amazing with our two cats. We were out of town for six weeks and Deanna did a terrific job taking care of our two fur babies, our plants, and our home. Great communicator and a heart of gold. Deanna is our go-to pet sitter!”
“I’ve said this time and again, Vanessa and Gilberto are the best. Our cats can be a pain, but they respond to them. We don’t have to come anymore to a cold shoulder.”
About: I have a 11.5 years old Samoyed, I have him since 2 months old. I have experiences to take care a dog with different ages I have a flexible job and try to spread my love with other pets. Especially nowaday lots of jobs start requiring the employees return to office, I want to offer more love and care to those pets so they won’t feel lonely for all day long. Introduce myself to the pets like how we meet human. Build up the trust and comfort. Observe their body languages to offer anything that they need.
“Kaylalea was thorough in her communication, my cats seemed happy with her company, and my home was in the same condition as i left it. would definitely book again!”
“Daniele was an amazing sitter for my old, cranky, shy kitty! I knew from the very first meet & greet that she was going to be a perfect fit- Poptart walked right up to her and she gave her a boop on the nose! ? Daniele had so much patience and understanding for how to handle her, and made sure to keep me in very close communication while I was away from home. I usually worry so much about leaving my kitty alone for extended periods of time, but having Daniele helped relieve my stress. I knew Poptart was in great care, and we’ll definitely be using her in the future! She even took care of my plants!!”
“The fastest responder in the business! Burak treats my little Coco like his own and goes above and beyond for her. I feel at ease knowing she will get a treated with love and showered with belly rubs. My favorite sitter!”
“Haley did a great job watching my dogs, Zoey and Marley! She was responsible, communicative, and made sure they were well taken care of. I came home to happy pups and everything in order. I’d definitely trust her with them again!”
“Alexandria is the real deal. She helps me out on a daily basis with my 4-legged son by giving me peace of mind that he’s being checked on, walked, and loved on. Thank you as always.”
About: Having a reactive dog has taught me to be patient and extremely knowledgeable in dog behavior and care. Additionally, my family had many dogs growing up, so I am used to the chaos! Beyond that, really, I just love the warmth and love they give without any judgment. I work full-time remotely so am flexible with bookings. I let my dog out every 4-5 hrs! My calendar is up to date but please reach out with any questions. I have a 37 lb dog who loves playing with other dogs. I live in an apartment so I let the dogs out every 4-5 hrs and will take them on walks and if I have time, we’ll visit a safe dog park.
“Heaven was phenomenal. She was super punctual both with responding to my messages and in caring for my kitties. She’s super sweet and went out of her way to make sure my babies were comfortable. She sent tons of photos and videos as well which was much appreciated. She also washed a blanket for me when she didn’t need to and I really appreciated it. Overall, she was fantastic and a great sitter. She made me feel completely comfortable being away from home, knowing she was caring for my babies. This was my first time booking with her and I will do so again in the future! Thank you Heaven 😊”
“Fantastic! My dog is usually skittish around new people, but Jennifer has the magic touch and immediately made her feel comfortable. Jennifer was so sweet to her! I am happy to have found such an amazing person to look after my fur baby. 👍”
“Dawn took such good care of my sweet Ellie while I was away on business for five days. She sent prompt updates with pictures and everything was perfect when I returned home. You won’t regret booking with Dawn for your cat’s care ?”
“Carolina was able to home-visit my cat on very short notice when I was stuck out of town for longer than anticipated. Her service has been great and she is a great at communicating with me.”
“Anastasia did an excellent job of taking care of my two kitties. She gave detailed reports and sent lovely pictures! She followed all my instructions including playing with and brushing both of my purr-babies! I will book her again in the future!”
“Bryan was delightful to work with and is extremely talented and trustworthy when it came to my pitbull mastiff. He always kept me in the loop with pictures and nice messages with each trip to my house. If I ever need to get out of town again, he will be the guy I’d call first. I recommend him to anyone who wants a hassle free pet sitter.”
“Yushan took care of my puppy, Kodak, who is still learning potty and crate training. She followed the instructions for her thoroughly and gave her affection. She is someone I would feel comfortable entrusting with my baby again.”
Galleria-Uptown pet parents share their Rover experiences
Abigail did a fantastic job. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She followed all instructions and took extra precautions for Tuna who has some issues eating/getting into things. She took such great photos of Tuna and gave me plenty of updates. I was really impressed with how well she was able to connect to Tuna. She’s normally a little shy but seemed to warm up super fast to Abigail. Abigail also was able to read Tuna and know what she wanted! Will definitely be booking. Abigail again!!!!
Haley, was amazing with my cat, Gryff! She went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and happy while I was away. Gryff can be a little shy at first, but he warmed up to her quickly — which says a lot! I got regular updates and photos, and it was clear he was getting lots of love and attention. I came home to a relaxed, happy cat and a tidy space. I’ll definitely book with Haley again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
Here’s a more playful, pet-owner-to-pet-owner style version for Rover: ⸻ Robin is the best! My pets absolutely love her and I could tell right away they were in great hands. She kept me updated with the cutest photos and videos, which made being away so much easier. She’s dependable, super easy to communicate with, and treated my home with care. I’d trust her again in a heartbeat!
I was pleased with the care and attention that Raghad gave to my cats while I was away. She has excellent communication, quick to respond, and always kept me updated with photos. My cats were happy and well-cared for, I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter!
Nathan is such a nice guy! :) He came in and loved on our animals (4 cats and 1 dog) for 2 days and we really enjoyed his services. Each animal has a different feeding method and Nathan took care of them no problem. Our high strung dog took to Nathan immediately which was awesome to see when he came over to meet them. We will definitely be using Nathan’s services when we’re away next!
Elizabeth is the best! I had to leave town last minute and she saved the day. She is so loving with my kitty and I couldn’t be more appreciative. My little man also wanted me to say “ Thanks for all the love, cuddles, and snacks while my human was gone! 🐾❤️” - Moon Pie + Haley
It was pleasant working with Bian and I’d recommend him to other pet parents! Bian is cooperative and communicate well. I had some issues initially with coordinating with my apartment to give him access to my place, but he was very patient throughout the whole time and eventually took initiative and sorted things out with the front desk. My cat Lucky is an energetic young boy that can make things messy sometimes. Bian took great care of him and took my instructions very well. He gave Lucky a lot of play time exactly like how I hoped, filled both of Lucky’s water bowls, and cleaned 3 litter boxes. I can tell that Lucky likes him and enjoyed the time with him. I’d definitely rebook in the future.
