Carrie was a fantastic sitter for our two cats. She played with high-energy kitten every time she visited, and she made sure to pay careful attention and give love to our older cat as well. Both of our cats seemed very happy and content when we returned home!

Carrie is amazing and takes such good care of Freddy! When I need to travel for work with relatively short notice she has been super accommodating, detailed in her updates in how Freddy is doing, and a great companion for him while I'm away.

Carrie took care of our two very shy rescue cats while we were out of town for the long weekend. She was very reliable and a pleasure to communicate with.

Absolutely amazing pet sitter! Carrie is kind, reliable, and clearly adores my fur babies. I felt totally at ease knowing my cats were in such loving hands. Couldn’t recommend Carrie more!

Please share anything that's important for me to know, including your pet's favorite games and toys, spots inside of your home that are the first place to look when a cat is "missing" (napping in private lol). Please also give me a heads up if your dog is reactive to other dogs or people.
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.
