I'm very happy with my experience with Tricia, who took excellent care of my cat, Pedro. Punctual and attentive, Tricia ensured Pedro was well-fed and entertained. Her communication, including messages, pictures, and videos during visits, provided peace of mind. I'm delighted with the service, would gladly choose Tricia again, and highly recommend her to friends 😻💙

Edward is the best cat-sitter we've ever had. He is prompt, our cat Ferdinand absolutely loves him (demonstrated through many friendly headbutts!), and Edward always sends us pictures and videos of Ferdinand, his food, clean litter boxes, etc. Whenever we travel, we really have complete peace of mind knowing that Edward is taking care of Ferdinand.

About: I have taken care of dogs for years either boarding, house sitting, or walking for up to a month at a time. I'm excited to support you and your pet care needs. I work from home so it is very easy for me to walk, feed, and care for your pet based on their typical schedule. Just let me know! I am extremely careful to make sure that pets stay safe and feel comfortable while they are being cared for. I can send text and/or photo updates as requested.

Juli went above and beyond: not just in taking diligent care of my cat Billie, but also in helping make sure an urgent package delivered to my apartment got inside securely and without risk of theft. She’s a wonderful sitter and someone that I plan to seek out first and foremost for my pet care needs!

Madeline is amazing and very compassionate! Took great care of my senior pups. My one senior really can’t leave the house anymore so we did drop in visits. Madeline put us at ease by sending updates and photos every time she checked in. Definitely will use her again! I’ve used Rover twice before and she is the best!

Chasity did some drop-in visits for our cat Tucker and was amazing!! He can be a bit needy and is very chatty but she loved hanging out with him and sent so many great photos. She made sure his litter box was clean and gave him plenty of love while she was here! She was also very responsive and right on time for the scheduled visits. I’d definitely recommend her and will be scheduling with her again in the future if she’s available!

Susan was wonderful, and so understanding of both my shy kitty and my kitty who has been territorial after our move. She was so attentive to them, and also was gracious enough to water my plants while I was gone. I would highly recommend her as a sitter! I knew that my boys were in excellent hands with her while I was away!
