1. Kathryn C.
“Kathryn took excellent care of my 3 cats who are difficult to care for. I can home to happy cats, clean food bowls, clean and full water fountains, and clean litter boxes”
2. ANN P.
“Ann provided updates every day while we were gone, along with pictures. We have one excessively shy kitty and one more sociable kitty-- our shy kitty hid the whole time despite Ann trying to find her. This was expected by us but I appreciate Ann looking for her. Our kitties seemed well-cared for (and the shy one revealed herself as soon as we returned home)!”

This was our first time using Rover and now we’re wondering why we didn’t use this service earlier. We will definitely be booking Cameron if/when we leave town again.”

12. Sarah P.

13. Zulema D.
“When Zulema goes on vacation, she creates a detailed hourly itinerary and provides it in a PDF format that can be emailed to your preference. She also sets up surveillance to monitor her cat and takes time during her vacation to check in, say hello, and ensure everything is okay. Zulema stays in constant communication, calling, texting, and requesting updates and pictures of her cat. She knows her pet’s favorite foods, dislikes, and even subtle behaviors, showing just how deeply attentive and devoted she is. Her dedication to her cat is a testament to the exceptional care she would provide for any pet.”

16. Maani N.
“Maani took excellent care of our home and kitties while we were away for a week. She sent pictures almost every day and left our home clean & tidy. Our cats are a little high maintenance (feeding schedule for weight loss, hairballs, medicine, etc.) and Manni took care of it all. She was also very easy to get in touch with. It was a great comfort to know that our cats were on their regular routine while we were away. I will definitely use Maani again in the future!”

20. Melissa V.
“Anytime my husband and I go out of time, we use Melissa n. When we come back home, our dogs are the same as to when we leave. We come home to happy and healthy dogs. She treats them with respect as if they are her own. I would definitely recommend Melissa to anyone else.”
