Kelsey visited my two kitties while I was away one weekend. She followed all the instructions and communicated really well with me before and during her visits. Loui and Lola seemed to warm up to her quickly. Reliable and trustworthy. Will definitely book Kelsey again!

Daniel was our first Rover sitter and was the only person I contacted who met my standards. He is excellent at responding to my messages quickly and is very patient with all of my instructions. I asked Daniel to use my puppy's training commands and he did as asked. He gave her positive reinforcements throughout their visit. He sent many photos of our active, happy pup. I fully trust him being in our home unattended. Daniel was on time for our Meet & Greet appointment and our puppy's first home visit, which sadly other people do not to seem to think is important. I appreciate his professionalism as he understands THIS IS A JOB, not something to fit in his day if/when it is convenient for him, as other potential sitters represented. Thank you so much Daniel.

Katherine did great with our 3 YO Lab and our rescued 8MO newly rescued pup! She did an extra "meet & greet" since we adopted the pup after we had booked the drop-ins for one dog. She was on time, sent multiple photos to assure us the two were doing great, and left an extra note to let us know of a small problem the pup had while we were away. Great 1st assignment!

We just returned from a 2 week trip, and Cory provided care for our 5 cats. He did a fabulous job! 3 of the cats were elusive, but the other 2 warmed up to him. He saw to all of their needs, and also fed the birds and squirrels for us. He did all we asked of him, and I was confident that they were in good hands. I highly recommend Cory, and will reach out to him for future needs. Thank you, Cory for the great job.

Monica was absolutely amazing taking care of our pups and giving us the ease of mind knowing they were well taken care of on our wedding day. She left very detailed notes about her visits and took care of them like they were her own. We appreciate it so much and will definitely be booking her again if we need dog sitting in the future!

She was loving and caring to my 2 cats and my crazy high energy German Shepard. 10/10 would book with her again and will recommend to any fur parents I know in the future!

About: Dogs and cats are my first priority whenever I'm over at a friend or family member's house. My brother had asthma so we re-homed our dog Sylvie when I was seven years old--I have some very dramatic journal articles from that time! So, whenever I got to be around pets, I gave them as much of my attention as they were interested in. I am now lucky enough to have my own dog (Shannon, the goldendoodle in my profile picture) but can never get enough time with dogs and cats!! Over the summer my schedule is relatively flexible, so if your dog needs a walk or your cat needs to be fed at any time throughout the day, I should be able to make it work! My goal is to maintain your pet's routine as much as possible! I can spend one-on-one time with them, take them out, or just check on them as the situation requires.

Sincerely amazing, took pictures of everything that I wouldve asked for without me even having to ask. Super sweet and considerate detailed notes with every visit. Cleaned up any messes which was so sweet. One of the few people on here that really knows how to care for cats and does so excellently. My cats loved her especially my scaredy cat who is afraid of everyone. I sincerely do not believe I’d book with anyone else after this amazing expirence.

Carly took care of our 3 dogs for us while we were gone. She did an amazing job! Kept us updated, asked any questions that came up, sent pictures, and really put us at ease. We have never left our dogs with anyone before and we could not be more pleased with how Carly did! I would highly recommend her to anyone, and we will happily use her services again in the future. Thanks Carly!!

Madison was absolutely fantastic! She was accommodating, personable, punctual, and wonderful with both my Yorkie and Persian cat. From the very beginning, she communicated exceptionally well, asked thoughtful questions, and made me feel completely confident that my pets were in great hands. Her reports were thorough and detailed, and she sent plenty of photos that gave me peace of mind while I was away. She spent quality time playing with my pets, took my dog on walks, and clearly treated them with genuine care and affection. She also kept the house tidy and made sure pet bowls and feeding areas were always clean. Madison went above and beyond in every aspect of her care and truly exceeded my expectations. I would not hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter.

William is a wonderful and very friendly pet sitter. He came to visit prior to the job and do a meet and greet. I was impressed with all his zoo background work and you can tell he loves animals. My cats were happy and he sent me a picture to update how they were doing. He followed instructions, and was prompt. I will be using his services again for sure. Highly recommend.
