“Katie is 5 star VIP pet service. We did a “virtual” key exchange and she completed 3 drop-in visits for our kitty. She sends lots of photos and videos and brings in packages. We could tell she was spending quality time with our cat which gave us peace of mind while we were out of town. Thanks for being so awesome Katie!”
“We are traveling in an RV and had a couple of day long tours. Mishel came in to "walk" Maggie (Bicheon) once each day for about half an hour. She did fantastic and was great with her communications. Since we were in an RV we were difficult to find and it took extra effort for her to get to Maggie. I'd give her 6 stars if Rover would allow it :-)”
“Nina took great care of our cat while we were out of town, including giving medication. She was communicative and reliable and I can tell she enjoyed loving on our sweet kitty!”
“Jessica was wonderful with my two elderly (almost 15 yrs old) cats. They are very picky eaters and she diligently made sure they had access to the food multiple times over the visit- encouraging them to eat. She was always very prompt and relayed helpful notes and pictures. Will definitely call on Jessica again in the future. Thank you!!!”
“Fiona was amazing!!! This was our first time using Rover and we seriously got really lucky choosing her. She took care of our two cats while we were gone, sent so many great photos the entire time, and gave detailed updates. They were so clearly taken such good care of. We appreciated all that she did, going above and beyond our expectations. Would 100% book with Fiona again!”
About: I grew up with dogs, big and small, from puppy to senior, and absolutely love the experience of caring for our best friends. I've also had extensive experience caring for rodents, fish, and lizards. I'm on break from school and working part time, so I'm very flexible with my schedule. I'm available mornings, nights, and weekends for extended periods as well. It is my priority to make sure your pet is the happiest and healthiest they can be when missing their parents. Attention, walks, and play are all part of the fun!
“Madison did a great job caring for our shy little cat, SheShe. She is often timid with people, but Madison was kind and gentle with her, and even managed to coax her out for some petting. I highly recommend choosing Madison to care for your pets, she’s so kind and she loves cats (and dogs!). Will definitely use her again for pet visits.”
“Biza was absolutely wonderful with our three cats! They each have unique personalities and needs, and she got to know them so well. She checked in regularly and was super communicative, and I'd recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter. Thank you so much!”
About: I love dogs and wants to make sure everyone’s furry friends has a safe and welcoming place to stay while you travel! Beautiful fenced in yard with lots of room to play! When they stay with me, your dogs are my dogs and I’ll give them all the attention and love my own get! Part of the family for the entire stay! Make no mistake, they will be begging you to take that next vacation, business trip, or short get away so they can come back to Elle’s house! Pet Reiki healing certified and can be done especially for elder dogs or dogs on hospice for an additional fee! I work for myself and have a very flexible schedule to always be available for your furry friends. I am home all day most every day when they are with me. I have a fenced yard and plenty of space for your pets to roam and play. I am very clean and also run a cleaning business.
“Emily was awesome! She left a detailed note and photos of every drop in visit. Super professional. Made us feel like Finn was in good hands and well cared for. After her first day with Finn we rebooked her immediately for the following day. Thank you Emily!”
“Katherine is a phenomenal pet sitter! She went above and beyond giving our rabbits the best care! She was so communicative throughout our trip. The love and attention she showed our animals gave me so much comfort while away. Definitely would recommend!!!”
About: As a former canine CPR instructor with 20 years of animal care and property management experience, I can care for your home and animals with confidence allowing you to travel with peace of mind. I have a flexible schedule and work mostly from home (part-time) allowing me to keep pets company during the day/night and maintain their regular schedule. I care for your pets in your home, allowing them to enjoy the benefit of familiar surroundings while you are away whether for a few hours or a few weeks.
About: Im a lover of most all animals especially dogs. I worked at a major dog toy manufacturer for over 10 years. Became friends with a dog trainer who taught me about behaviors and the do's and dont's when interacting with dogs. Is your dog a 'fetcher', 'chewer' or 'tugger'. I'm looking to making new dog friends. I'm recently retired and all days are available. It also gives me an opportunity to get some extra exercise while having a lot of fun doing so. I am looking only for dog walking and sitting at pet owners homes to start. That may change in the future but for now that's what I offer.
“Elena is a gem! My kitty absolutely adored her and cuddled with her the whole time I was gone. My home is clean and pretty just the way I left it. But really, it’s all about the fur babies, and Elena will take wonderful care of them and they will adore her instantly. Trust.”
