I don’t even know where to start. I had to go to the hospital unexpectedly and was panicking about my cats and my apartment. Illeana responded right away and stepped in when I really needed someone. She met me at the hospital to get my keys and took such good care of my babies, sending me pictures and updates that gave me so much peace of mind. But what she did beyond that completely shocked me. I came home to a clean apartment. She took out all my trash, cleaned my kitchen, washed dishes, bought bowls for my cats, left cleaning supplies and even flowers on the counter. She showed me so much kindness during one of the hardest weeks I’ve had. I have no family or friends in this country so she’s the only one I had during that time. She is compassionate, trustworthy, and truly goes above and beyond. I will never forget what she did for me and my cats. If you’re thinking about booking her, please do. She’s amazing.

Charlayda, or “Layda” recently took care of our 4 dogs—2 11-mo olds, who sleep in the garage, are trained to bathroom on puppy pads, and a 4 and 5 year old who are totally family members who sleep on beds, love the outdoors, and live to please people! We went away for a military graduation for 6 days, and were nervous to use a “service” but our friend could not stay here, so we took a leap of faith with Rover and Charlayda. When she came for a Meet and Greet 4 days before we were leaving, we immediately could tell we were with a lover of dogs, someone knowledable who all 4 dogs quickly “took to.” All of our fears about leaving went away as she asked questions and took the time to get to know specifics about all 4. While away, we received photos, videos, and texts as requested. When we returned home, all the dogs were calm, happy, sat for treats better than before!, and we could just tell that Layda had earned an A++++ in every way. We never thought we could leave all of them. We were proved wrong!! She’s superb. We’re now thinking about a weekend away, something we considered impossible before!! We’re so grateful!!

Alexis was literally so wonderful. We had a trip planned for months, and one of our cats was diagnosed with pneumonia right before we were set to leave. Alexis was comfortable administering medication, and sent such good updates about how everyone was doing. I was actually able to relax and focus on the tasks I needed to do on the trip. Will one hundred percent be recommending her to others!

Huge thanks to Jeweliana and Riley for being so patient with us as first-time Rover users. We have a 12-week-old puppy and they took the time to meet her and answer all our questions during the first visit, which really put us at ease. Even though we ended up getting home before her scheduled time, we were more than happy to pay for the booking. We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again!

Alivia was the best caretaker for our fur baby while we were away! So glad I found her on here. She came for a meet & greet and had an instant connection with our cat. She did not have experience giving medicine (pill form) to a cat before, but you’d never know it because she found a way to get our cat to take her meds every visit without issue which was a huge relief. I’ll definitely be using her services again in the future. Thanks again Alivia!!

Mark is awesome! He was so attentive to our pups and even got a little dog to open up to him (which she never does to anyone but me) he was very responsive if I had a question and was immediately available when an emergency came up! If I could give him over 5 stars I would! He will a 100% be our permanent dog sitter! Definitely go with him if you’re looking for someone who is passionate about your little babies!
