“Heather was great! My old man cat doesn't really require much but Heather was on time and consistent for each visit. Always providing a picture too, which was nice.”
2. Taryn M.
“Taryn was great. She hit it off with my cat Murphy. She followed all instructions. She stayed for the full time she was supposed to. I will definitely hire her again when I go out of town. It was nice to have the piece of mind that Murphy would be looked after while I was gone.”
3. Kayla C.
“I can tell Kayla is a true animal lover, she came in early and stayed the entire planned time and made sure Tessi (cat) had fresh water and food, and also played with her after she ate. I hadn’t come home last night and noticed in the camera Tessi had been stopping by and waiting by door several times throughout all night, worrying whether someone would come home. She started her cat cry around 7:30am, and after Kayla’s service at around 11am Tessi didn’t bother to come to the door until I came back home around 3:30PM, indicating Tessi was content and that was exactly what she needed. Definitely recommend!”
4. Crystal L.
“This was my first time using Rover, and Crystal was really great. She got a long very well with my cat, and I can tell that she really cares. If you want someone trustworthy to care for your pets, I would definitely recommend Crystal.”

“Job well done...Alex communicated with me each day, and was even willing to take out my trash on trash day! I def recommend. I already have her booked again!”
8. Sarah P.
“This was our first time using Rover but Sarah put us at ease right away. She’s a great communicator and kept us up to date on our cat two times a day. When we got home we could tell that our sweet guy was happy and very well cared for! We will definitely use Sarah again!”
9. Jessica S.
About: I have owned dogs, cats and birds. I have rescued animals. I am the first person family and friends call when they need a sitter or if they find a stray they need help with. Whatever your pets needs, I’m your girl! I work full time, but I am available nights and weekends to care for and play with your furry loved ones. I love to go on walks daily. I have a goldendoodle that loves to play with other dogs, so your pets will have a playmate if you bring them to my house.
10. Eli W.
“Eli is fantastic! I cannot say enough positive things about our experience! Our cat, Babs, was well taken care of, fed, and even got to play while we were away for the weekend! I absolutely loved the check in reports Eli made! My husband and I were smiling all weekend reading them and for the first time I can remember, I wasn't laying awake in bed worrying about if Babs had enough food and water or was getting into trouble while we were away. I would recommend Eli to anyone who has pets and wants them to feel cared for while they are away and I will definitely be contacting Eli again for check ins when my husband and I go on another trip!”
11. Pam C.
“Pam was great from our very first contact. She suggested meeting at a neutral spot so we could meet and the dogs could meet. We met at Petsmart. The dogs got along great too we proceeded to book Ozzie's 2 night boarding stay. Her house is very nice with a huge yard and a walking trail that borders her property. She took Ozzie and her dog Redford on several walks. I knew right away that Ozzie would be considered as part of the family and would be treated well. He made himself right at home and I was very comfortable leaving him there knowing he would be comfortable and well cared for. I will definitely use Pam again next time we have to go out of town. Highly recommended for overnight pet boarding!!”
12. Anna L.
“Anna is awesome! She has taken fantastic care of Coco while I’m in the hospital and I’m afraid Coco’s gonna like her better than me! Not only did she feed, clean litter boxes and apply medicine, but she sits with her every day and makes sure she feels loved. Can’t tell you how reassuring I feel to have found someone so caring and compassionate! If you’re interested in Anna, don’t hesitate; you won’t be sorry!”
13. Caitlin C.
“Caitlin C. would be the most loving pet sitter! Her love of animals goes beyond the love of her own pets. You can't take Caitlin anywhere without her stopping to pet any animal she comes across. A side from that, Caitlin is also very respectful, responsible, caring and compassionate. I would not hesitate to give Caitlin a call.”
14. Nayeli R.
About: I love going on walks i’m homeschooled so i am always available, i can insure that as ur pet is in my care they will be fed, looked after, as well as taken out to use the bathroom, (and or litter box) I am currently in online school, so that allows me to have lots of free time, i already like to fill that free time with going on walks so adding your fuzzy friend won’t be a problem! I have no dogs currently but have had and know how to properly care for a dog, i am responsible, trustworthy, and clean. I can be both active and chill depending on your fur baby’s needs and requirements.
15. Nicole W.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life! Taking care of them is a passion I didn’t realize I had until I had my own house and didn’t have one to care for! So I quickly changed that and have a dog I care for daily. I am a home maker. I spend most of my daily hours home taking care of my kids and my dog! Our home is filled with love and laughter. The care I provide is the same care I would expect one to treat their dogs with! Dogs are not just simply pets but family members and should be treated as so!
16. Erin G.
“I’m happy Cesar got the love and the attention he deserved! Erin was very patient with an excited dog!”
17. Elizabeth R.
“Elizabeth is wonderful with our fur baby?♥️”
18. Anna W.
“Anna has stayed with my babies multiple times. She loves and cares for them like I do. The house is always clean when I get home. She is an absolute gem and there is no one else I would want taking care of my fur babies.”
19. Melissa D.
“Melissa was wonderful with our cat. He was content and well cared for. She took meticulous care of the house also. Communication with her was exceptional! I will absolutely ask Melissa to watch Mazzy again the next time we go out of town.”
