“I was in a pinch to find someone to care for my two senior cats when I went on vacation and came across Barbara. I liked her and her bubbly personality from the moment I met her. She did an amazing job caring for the cats, including changing the litter boxes and cleaning up after them. I enjoyed getting her daily updates and pictures. I will definitely use Barbara’s services again.”

“Ishi has been caring for my fur babies for years. I don’t know what I would do without her - my cat and dog love her. My dog takes time to develop trust and she made sure to go out of her way to respect their boundaries and ensure they felt safe and comfortable. Now they get so excited when they see her! Can’t recommend Ishi more!”

Viv communicated so effectively when she was on their way and sent so many pictures of our dogs to reassure my nerves.

We will definitely being using them again.”

9. Sherry G.
“Sherry is like a second parent to our puppies. When our pups were neutered and we needed someone in a pinch to drop by while we were out, we didn't hesitate to ask Sherry. She followed up with us via text and phone to make sure she had all the instructions since they were still recovering from surgery. She gave a lot of good advice, showing her experience with dogs. We knew the puppies were in good hands while we were away. Sherry provided us the peace of mind we needed.”
10. Mary B.
“This was my first time leaving my babies (2 adult cats) for a week vacation and I’m grateful that Mary was there to love them while I was away. What I appreciated most was the thoughtful updates she provided each day, along with her ability to quickly recognize what each kitty needed to be taken care of for the week. I 100% will book with Mary in the future because I trust her and my cat Appy has definitely made a new friend!”

14. James F.
“James has watched my dog for me on many of an occasion before he came to Rover. He was always dependable and my dog Nugget was always glad to see him and would snuggle with him. Sadly Nugget crossed the rainbow bridge, so I no longer need James' services, but he is a caring and reliable sitter for any pet.”
