Molly did a great job caring for my cat while I was out of town. She had great communication from start to finish.

I was going on a trip and didn’t want to leave my hamster without food and water for four days. Molly had excellent reviews, so I asked if she would be willing to help me out. I was so grateful that she was excited to help even though the distance to our home was a bit out of the way. During our meet and greet, I instantly knew she was the perfect choice to take care of our hamster because she LOVES animals, no matter how small. She has a big heart. She asked a lot of questions to understand hamsters more, which I appreciated not only because it showed she cared, but I got to geek out over hamsters, something I don’t get to do often. A huge weight was lifted off me as I knew my pet would be well taken care of. I can’t thank her enough!!

We were a little nervous as this was our first time using Rover, but Molly immediately took those nerves away with how kind, thoughtful, and communicative she was. Molly truly exceeded our expectations with her amazing care. She sent us detailed messages and adorable pictures of our cat which was so appreciated and alleviated our worries about leaving our buddy at home during our trip. We will absolutely be booking Molly again when we need a pet sitter. Cannot recommend her enough!

Molly was such a joy to work with and went above and beyond to give our dog a much needed break and extra attention in the middle of the day. We will use her again in a heartbeat!
