Pet care experience

I grew up in a tropical country surrounded by animals. Naturally, learning and caring for them became my passion. I currently have a dog and a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets.

Jo was absolutely wonderful looking after our kitties. She was extremely informative and very responsive. It’s always stressful leaving our kitties alone, but Jo made us feel at ease. Would absolutely rebook again!

Jo was awesome! I highly recommend her. She was great with my cat. She gave my cat a lot of attention and my cat enjoyed it so much. I very much appreciate her schedule flexibility too. She visited earlier than the schedule upon my request. Also, she took goofy pictures of my cat. 😀

Jo is a great choice for dog walking! She is reliable and responds quickly to messages. I love getting all the updates she provides. Our dog loves her and would recommend 10/10!

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.
