“Dexter and Savannah both give Amanda 4 out of 4 paws! Amanda had great communication, took photos everyday, and I came home to cats in the best they've ever been in after a long trip. HIGHLY recommend! She's a great sitter”
7. Brianna K.
“Brianna was fabulous with our two cats! She went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and well taken care of while we were out of town for over a week. This was the first time we’ve left them in the care of someone else and Brianna’s stellar communication and amazing notes/pictures from every visit really put us at ease. If you’re looking for a kind, caring, and cat-loving sitter, you found your gal! Thank you Brianna for being there for Gus and Ella ☺️🐱”

10. Daniel L.
“Daniel is great. He always shows up as scheduled and takes good care of our cat. She also feels at ease with him so petting is included on his visits.”
11. Shauna S.
“Shauna was wonderful. To start off, I was new to Rover and she was very patient with me. Up to this point I only had my mom watch my kits and since we're both so used to the routine I was struggling with remembering what to tell Shauna. She asked great questions and took notes during our meet and greet, which I did not do correctly 😆. Turns out our kitties have the same issues so she was familiar with their diets which was comforting. My kits are kind of the definition of scaredy cat, however they took their squeezy treats from her on day one which is unheard of even with my mom sometimes. She has a very calm energy, which my kits appreciate. There were no stress related bathroom issues which was fantastic. She sent pictures and a little summary everyday. My kits seemed very comfortable with her. I would absolutely ask her to watch my kits again.”
12. Stacey S.
“Stacey takes wonderful care of our usually very shy and timid dog and has done so unfailingly, whenever we've had a sudden and unexpected need since our doggy was a wee puppy (with lots of puppy needs!) Our dog LOVES Stacey and happily moves right in and makes herself at home whenever given the chance. Our dog is anything but timid or shy with her beloved Stacey! Stacey truly lives by the platinum rule with the pets in her care - treat others as they wish to be treated - and is attentive, caring and warm. We are so grateful for her dog sitting!”
13. Maggie O.
About: Apart from not having pets growing up, I have always loved animals. I am very familiar with dogs and cats because of my neighbors, friends, and family. I have grown up around them. My friends have asked me to come let their dogs out, feed them, or play with them. I have also, recently over the summer, house-sat/dog-sat 2 dogs for a whole week. I currently don't have a job so I am available whenever needed. At some point, I might end up getting a part-time or full-time job, so my availability will change depending on what happens. I make sure I carefully pay attention to what your needs are for your pet. I want to make them feel comfortable around me and gain their trust. I focus on their health and making sure they get all the love they need!
14. Jen W.
“Jen is such a helpful pet support! She clearly loves animals of all kinds and goes above and beyond to make sure all is well when we are away. Highly recommend!”
15. Katherine K.
“We were so glad Katherine could come back to care for our sweet kitty. She is a great support when we are out of town! Always communicative and thorough with updates. Definitely recommend!”
16. Jesse B.
“Great care!”
17. Virginia R.
“very communicative and kind! loved the updates on the pets:)”
18. Lindsay H.
“Lindsay could not have been a better drop in caretaker for our two fur baby rabbits! She sent lots of photos of the bunnies enjoying their visits and the meticulous clean-up and replenishing of their enclosure! It gave us complete peace of mind having Lindsay check in on our fur babies while we were out of the country. We hope she is available the next time, as we would most definitely book again!”
19. Jake S.
“Jake's a great animal person that will get to know and take care of your pets! Super consistent. He's a top dog!”
20. Elena S.
“Elena has always loved animals and her major in college was Animal Ecology. She has worked in wildlife rehab and also at a zoo. She loves her dog, Bay and is very knowledgeable about the care of dogs and other animals. Elena also loves the outdoors so she is just the person you want walking your dog if you can’t do it.”
