This was our second time with Erin as our two cats’ sitter, and she’s always been fantastic. We were very lucky to have her care for our boys while we were on vacation for almost two weeks.

Rucha was great with my cat who is very shy. My cat actually came out of hiding and went over to Rucha which is very unusual. Everything looked great when I got home. Will definitely ask her again!

My cat took to Dan right away, even though she’s typically wary of men! Dan is punctual, professional, and very communicative. He took great care of my cat and home.

Emily was just amazing! I didn’t have a good experience with the first one Rover a few months back and Emily made up for that and MORE! She was prompt every time, Stayed the whole time that was promised. She sent lots of pictures of my furbabies, which helped to calm my anxiety of leaving them for 5 days. She gave our kitten lots of laser pointer exercise to help him get out and about and okay time since he’s not allowed outside. She was challenged by both kitties with throw up, poop and dead bird issues and she cleaned up all messes and kept me informed of any changes and of each visit. I would highly recommend her and wish she was available for august when we leave again because I’d book her NOW!

About: I have had pets my whole life growing up. I’ve had dogs, cats, fish, and even rabbits! In fact, my mom has 2 dogs (Finley and Millie) that I helped take care of and train for years. Finley is a golden retriever and Millie is a chihuahua so my experience with different dog breeds is very diverse! I love walking dogs and getting to know each of their individual personalities. I’m a very energetic person and I’m so ready to go on long walks and even runs! I'm currently on summer vacation and am only working part-time so all other hours are mostly filled with walking and sitting dogs and spending time with my friends around San Francisco. I'm not busy at all at the moment so I'll make sure to be timely and patient with your animals and give our time together the upmost importance. I always listen to the needs and demands of my client's and their animals! I'm detail-orientated and able to follow a strict schedule insuring that your pets get the exact care that they need! :)

Simone was a great sitter for our cat!! She was quick to respond to our request only a day before we needed her, and even met up with us then too. She took great care of Cassie. She definitely didn’t just feed her and leave; she made sure to spend some quality time with her too. Overall I would highly recommend Simone!!

Nicole is the best sitter I’ve ever encountered-I love her and so do my cats! She really bonds with and pays attention to your pets and your home. She did an incredible job, everything is so clean and thoughtful and the cats had a great time with her. I’m so glad to be working with her-I can travel without any anxiety about their well-being, both physically and emotionally.

Maria was amazing!! She was so kind and patient with my sweet (albeit difficult) cat! My cat has a bunch of health issues, and Maria did a wonderful job navigating them, including giving her meds! She kept in contact with me, sending pictures and updates that really helped put my mind at ease while I was travelling, knowing that my cat was in good hands! She was quick to respond to both my booking request and my questions, and was willing to set up a meet-and-greet with me and my cat, so that I knew she was in good hands. This is the most relaxing vacation I’ve had in years, knowing that my high-needs cat was in good hands. I will never book anybody else!!! She was so kind and patient, and my cat really liked her too! Maria did a wonderful job, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for somebody trustworthy to check in on their pet.

Rachel did an outstanding job. She came everyday at the same time as I had requested, gave my cat her medications, brushed her and played with her, and kept the litter box tidy. Receiving daily photos is a real plus; it meant I was not worried about my pet’s care. In sum, Rachel is great and I would hire her again in a heartbeat.

Due to Alex's extensive background in animal care, I felt very comfortable leaving my cat in Alex's care for drop in visits during a 9 day trip! Alex was meticulous with following the rules of Rover and had careful business practices, such as staying on platform for all communication and waiting to accept the booking until after our meet and greet went well. Alex was also meticulous with Mocha's care. I have some very complicated instructions for the care of this finicky senior kitty (special food prep, pills, tooth brushing, recording amount of food consumed) and Alex did a great job following them! As an added bonus, Alex even cleaned the floor around Mocha's food bowl without my asking! Would hire this sitter again. Thank you Alex!
