Pets

Safety, trust & environment

My cats are pretty self sufficient as cats are but they are fed every morning and evening and get treats. They are indoor cats aged 7 and 8. I feed fish daily and do water changes once a week as Maintenance. Chickens are a bit more daily maintenance with cleaning out coop everyday and filling water and feeder but it's rewarding (especially with getting eggs)

This is our first time using Rover and we have to say there isn't a better option for our precious Lacey. We chose Barbara for her experience. After reading her profile and reviews we thought she'd be a perfect candidate. Lacey can be affectionate but often times she's to independent to bother. With the meet and greet she seemed comfortable and even allowed Barbara to pet her which usually takes some time but it was a sign. Everything went so well. We felt at ease knowing Lacey was comfortable with Barbara. We loved all of her pictures and we could tell that Lacey happy with Barbara's company. We're so thankful everything went as well as it did and we truly appreciate how caring and patient Barbara was with her. We would definitely recommend Barbara she really exceeded out expectations.

I would definitely hire Barbie again. Marvelous cat sitter, got along really well with my Annabel Lee, spent time with her, and did everything we asked. Very responsible, I wouldn't hesitate to book her if you need someone to take care of your pet!

Barbara is reliable, conscientious and good to my cat. She is a good communicator and we have resolved any issues, such as a leaving her the wrong keywithout hassle. I have used her multiple times.
