3. CJ T.
“I needed a last minute solution as I was traveling to the bay area from NYC for work and had to bring my mini aussie with me. I am so grateful I found CJ ! Very professional and accommodating. But the best review comes from my dog herself. When he showed up to watch her on day 2, she was SO excited to see him she barely noticed when I left. Will one hundred percent hire him anytime we are back in the Bay Area!”
4. Aiko T.
“Aiko took care of frosty while I was gone with lots love and attention! She followed my instructions very well, and sent me great updates. Thanks Aiko!”
5. Jessica S.
“Jessica watched our kitties Charlie and Jupiter. Besides just basic needs of feeding, watering, and littering for my cats, she played with them everyday and took photos of them. They looked so happy and relaxed, even laying on their backs! Super comforted to know they were taken care of. More so, when my litter robot was on the fritz, Jessica wanted to be sure my babies would be comfortable and was attentive as I walked her through a solution by phone. I’m really happy with her cat care!!! ??”

7. Tatiana “Sasha” G.
“My fiancé and I moved to Dallas just 2 weeks before we were going out of town for the holidays and since we didn’t know anyone here yet I downloaded Rover and found Sarah based on her reviews. She met up with me to meet Pepper and go over things before I left and made it super easy for me to leave by keeping in touch everyday about how she was doing! She went out of her way to send me videos and pictures as well as to make sure the apartment was a comfortable temperature and everything for her. I highly recommend having her watched your pets and will absolutely be using her again myself. Thank you Sarah for taking care of Pepper so we’ll while I was gone!”

“We hired Rachel to take care of our cat Marie Curie for a couple of days and we coulnd’t be more satisfied! Rachel provided exceptional care and attention, ensuring that our cat was well-fed, entertained, and comfortable throughout our absence.

We highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and caring cat sitter!”

12. Melissa C.
About: I’ve had small dogs all my life. I absolutely love them and spend all of my time with my big Chihuahua Archie. We’d love to have your pup join our little family while you’re away! I work from home and already have my schedule based around my dogs needs. We go on at least two walks a day and have plenty of playtime inside and outside. I live in an apartment complex with a big grass area right next door for potty and play time. Dogs are allowed on the couch and on the bed. I don’t give dogs people food- only your approved treats.
13. Kateryna P.
About: I just love animals very much. I enjoy playing with them, throwing a ball, running with them, just walking. I treat each fluffy creature with special love and care.❤️ I have 7 free hours from 6am to 1pm Monday through Friday. So I'll be happy to spend them playing and walking with your favorite pets. 😊 Unfortunately, I do not have the conditions to take care of pets at home, but I can take care of them in their familiar territory.
14. Minghao & Yuchen L.
“Minghao and Yuchen have taken care of our cat before. This was a longer trip away and we fully trusted that everything would go smoothly, which it did. Thank you as always!”
15. Tanisha H.
“Having recently returned from a trip, I couldn't be happier with the care that Tanisha provided for my two cats, Sully and Boo. Not only did she do a fantastic job ensuring that they were well looked after, but I also came home to find my plants healthier than ever, a testament to her green thumb. She was particularly vigilant about Sully's digestive needs, adjusting his diet as needed to keep him comfortable and healthy. It's clear she's not just a pet sitter but a genuine animal lover who goes above and beyond to ensure they receive the best care possible. I wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and skilled caregiver for their pets. Her ability to juggle the needs of pets and plants alike, ensuring all are thriving, is truly impressive.”
16. Kira Elyse C.
“Kira is the most kind, responsible, dog loving young woman. She is bright and amazing with dogs! Highly recommend her to walk/care for your dog!”
17. Tracy D.
“Great communication and so helpful! Thank you for sending photos! We appreciate your help.”
18. John C.
“We are very particular at who we trust our cat and dog with. John has taken care of both of them many times. We have found him to be very trustworthy and he genuinely cares about our fur babies. When he arrives at our home our dog gets all excited greeting him. Our cat will jump up on the couch next to him. I am very happy when he is available because I know they are in very good hands. I would highly recommend John…..”

About: I lived on the farm for 16 years which we raised several types of dogs ranging from a miniature poodle name Benji to a black lab named Bear. We had several cats, some of them were called Barn cats and they would just stay in the barn and catch the mice or any other little creatures that would roam around! Once in awhile I would sneak in a kitty and make sure they were out of the house before my dad got up! I always felt bad for them sleeping outside. One of my first dogs as an adult was a Rottweiler named keela. She was so smart she wouldn't let the kids out of her side. When she got pregnant she had a hard time giving birth. I remember watching a movie 101 Dalmatians and one of the puppies wasn't breathing and he used a technique on the throat. That actually works. I had the vet on the line and he talked me through helping her give birth. That was one of these scariest most exciting moments owning a pet! I used to train our puppies on the farm the basics. They were so easy since treats or a puppy's best friend! My furry granddaughter moved out recently with her mom and her name is Bella. I get her on weekends sometimes like any other grandparent gets their grand child. I have doggy sat / house sat for one family for the past five to six years when needed. Ella is always excited to see me as I am always excited to see her! I believe that are pets are just like our children. They need our unconditional love, attention, patience, and understanding. Our pets can not talk to us so we need to make sure that we understand their language when they're not feeling well or when they're anxious or stressed out. I will treat your family member just like I treat my own. I now have a new addiction to the family. Her name is Luna. She is a 9month old tabby that I adopted Halloween night last year!! She was 8 weeks old and boy is she a character. Right now, I have an open schedule. So anytime would be great to hang out with some fur babies. Being with your babies would be a blessing to enjoy. Every morning we get up and have breakfast pour fresh water in her fountain. I allow her to go outside on the balcony for a bit while i am out there tending to my plants. we then go and empty her litter box in the morning so we can have clean litter for the day. I am trying to harness train her so if she wants some day we can go on a walk. we come back in, and we will play with some toys or the laser. then it is treat time. by then she takes a nap. this is how i take care of my pet. your pet would get the same treatment.
