Jose was fantastic. He was very communicative from the first meeting throughout the time we were away. He made sure to take care of our cats well! Even our nervous kitty that doesn’t always like to come out when we have people over came out and got some pets from him, so 10/10 from our cats as well :) Everything you could hope for in a pet sitter, we will certainly book again!

Jose took great care of my cat, Ebby! He took lots of time to visit with me and walk through my cat's routines. He was super responsive and sent pictures on each visit. When I came back, my cat was happy and healthy and my house was in great shape. I highly recommend Jose as a pet sitter!

Jose did a PHENOMENAL job watching my dog! After a previous sitter did not show up for a house sit, Jose was so quick to accommodate a last minute rebook and work with me to make sure my dog had everything she needed while I was out of town. He was consistent with updates and extremely responsive. I came home to a happy, well cares for dog. Thank you so much, Jose! Cannot recommend you enough!

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.
