Arlene was amazing! She took care of Mew and Gaia on short notice after our sitter dropped out the week of our wedding. I could not recommend her services more, our cats love her.

Arlene was wonderful and took such good care of Atticus. I greatly appreciated the time she took at our meet greet to understand his needs and get to know us both. Her check ins were thorough and I loved getting the photos. Highly recommend Arlene.

This was my first time using a Rover sitter for my boys, and Arlene was absolutely amazing. My cat Tybalt never goes to anyone he doesn’t know, yet he was in her lap right away. I couldn’t believe it! Arlene went above and beyond my expectations. She was extremely communicative, left our home in perfect order, and sent wonderful photos of my precious boys. I felt completely comfortable leaving them in her care. I can’t recommend her enough and will definitely be booking with her again.
