We had a wonderful experience with Ayla! They took such great care of our three cats while we were away and truly went above and beyond to make sure they were well cared for. Communication was excellent throughout every visit and I felt comfortable reaching out and asking questions in between. Ayla was responsive and updated us immediately after each visit with updates and pictures, giving us complete peace of mind. She was able to take care of our cats while one of them was in heat and helped us monitor her from afar. it was clear Ayla genuinely cared about our cats and treated them with kindness. We could not have asked for a better sitter and will be reaching out if and when we might need someone again in the future. I highly recommend Ayla to anyone looking for a reliable, caring and trustworthy pet sitter!

Ayla did a great job taking care of our shy cat. She was able to coax her out for pictures. I truly appreciate the attention to details like taking out the garbage and running the dishwasher at the end of the week. Thank you so much.

Ayla took excellent care of our kitties. We came back to healthy cats who are enthusiastic about hanging out with us, and our house was sufficiently clean and dry. I would totally hire Ayla again and recommend her pet services to others.

Ayla is a tender hearted soul who also is very assertive. She has a good ability to assess situations correctly. I know because I am her mother! Ayla is more mature and responsible at a young age than most people. I have always been able to count on her to care for our animals. We have neighbors that have hired her for cat care. When our 1 year old collie broke his wrist from a paw slipping into the storm drain on a snowy night, Ayla was my helper to put his forearm into a splint and unwrap it twice daily for the duration of the treatment. She has been my main helper in giving the dog a bath and helping to clip his claws. While visiting from California recently, she took both cats to the vet for me for their check-ups. One needed eye drops and she took care of this independently as follow up. She is engaging and soothing for animals and you can tell they respond well to her, as children also do. If you are looking for someone who is trustworthy and has excellent communication skills to care for your pets, you have found her!

It's important for me to know your pet's temperament, how they act around other animals or people, what kind of food/treats they can eat, and if they have any special needs or medical conditions.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
