“Thor and Loki are extremely shy kitties when it comes to strangers. Especially Loki. The fact that Loki came out of hiding the first day when Linda checked on them told me that she was a very nice a calm person. When we returned the cats were not stressed or spooked, almost like we never left at all. Over all the visit went very well. Thank you Linda!”
“Alicia has watched our fur babies on multiple occasions and every time she has gone above and beyond. Would recommend her to anyone that needs care for their pets!”
“Alessia was wonderful with our shy kitty! Willow came out on the second visit and felt confident enough to come out each visit after! We are so happy that she was able to get love and cuddles while we were gone! Alessia was communicative and sent great pictures! Clearly an animal lover and cares about her clients! Will definitely be booking her services again!”
“Barbara was extremely great with my 2 cats. They usually aren’t friendly and like to hide but they warmed up to her! You can tell she really cares! I’ll definitely rebook for my next vacation!”

“Lawrence was great! It was my first time using Rover, but they were very understanding and communicative. Our cats are shy, and they were great with respecting their boundaries. Their daily updates were thorough, and the pics always made us smile.”
“We were first time rover users for our cat Selene. Amanda was very kind and patient with us as I was all over the place with our trip. Our kitty hid each time she visited but was fed, watered and her box scooped! We will certainly book again the next time we have a trip planned! 😁”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! While I was admitted to the hospital for six days, I knew my cat, Logan, needed more than just someone to stop by and fill his bowl—he needed companionship, playtime, and someone to ensure his environment was safe and comfortable. Glenmary went above and beyond, not only taking incredible care of Logan but also easing my own worries. Her updates, attentiveness, and genuine care made all the difference. I’ve already booked her again, and she will be my number one sitter moving forward. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and reliable pet sitter!”
