“Amanda was a gem! She was so kind to extend her stay so we could go out to dinner. She is very sweet with our dog and we’’ll be sure to request her the next time we’re in NOLA!”
“Elizabeth was prompt with her visits and reports. She made me feel secure about being away from Tula. Everything was in order when we returned. I would trust her to check on her again if needed.”
“PSA: BOOK E FOR ALL YOUR PET NEEDS🗣️🔊 I cannot say enough good things about E. We will use them everytime we go on vacation. E came to our place before our trip to get a vibe of the cats, learn the home, and just understand what we needed. It was so professional and made us feel so safe and comforted to leave our cats with E. Immediately, our cats loved E! Every visit, E took so many pictures, and that really helped us on our 2 week vacation. They did everything we asked them too - they tailor their care to what you need them too. E loves all pets and we could immediately feel that. They also caught a big problem! Our AC went out while we were gone, and E let us know, and fixed it by finding the circuit box to turn it back on. That gave us peace of mind and saved us $$$$ to not have to call a HVAC guy. Overall, do yourself a favor and book E!!!🥰🥰”

“Ashley was so easy to work with and took such good care of my boy. It was my wedding night, and my dog was the ring bearer, but I needed someone to take care of him for a little while during the reception. She made the process so stress free. Just an invaluable peace of mind during the chaos of a wedding! Would highly recommend her to take care of your furbabies.”
“I feel great & secure going out of town for a few days knowing my pooch will be well cared for. She’s happy when I get back home & my place is well respected. Thanks Alaina!”

She gave me updates for each walk and house sit that included the sweetest pictures. My dog has a fear of loud noises, separation anxiety, and is older so can be a grumpy old man but he loved her welcoming, calm energy and she catered to his needs beatutifully. Would absolutely recommend her and will be using her again in the future!”
“Jamie did a fabulous job with my older cat. She was patient and interacted with her to her tolerance as she is shy with strangers, but she made a connection with her. Great piece of mind while out of town.”
“Arises was so helpful and caring with our two cats while we were out of town. She interacted with them (as much as they would allow) and made sure their needs were met. Would not hesitate to have her take care of them again!”

Margarida did a great job with both my cats, she took her time with them while they eased into meeting someone new. She sent detailed updates and a lot of pictures/videos. They were both in great spirits even after us being gone 5 days. Would definitely book again.
Alaina has taken care of our elderly cat multiple times now. She has excellent communication before and during the sit. She follows all the instructions. Most importantly our cat is comfortable enough with her to get brushed. He never has mats, which has been a problem with past sitters. I’m so grateful for Alaina!
I always trust Olivia to look after my two kitties while I’m away! She is extremely dependable and sends tons of photos.
Sarah is fantastic! She’s attentive, caring, and reliable. She knows our cat, Phife, very well (including her hiding spots haha) and always makes her feel comfortable during her visit. We love having her as a sitter!
Thanks for taking care of our girl. Easy to work with and consistently there when we needed her, Kelly was great
Caitlin did an amazing job checking on my kitty girls! She was super communicative throughout, offered to do a meet and greet with the cats beforehand, asked about feeding routine/favorite toys beforehand, and sent tons of pics from her visits. I will definitely use Caitlin again, thank you!
Loren did an excellent job as always. This is the 4th or 5th time looking after my cat while I'm away. My little buddy looks forward to her visits and knows he is in good hands.
Thank you for following all my detailed instructions and loving on my sweet old man. I so appreciate you!
Samantha is excellent! It was my first time leaving cats for a week and Samantha made it easy for me to be away and not worry. She gave updates twice a day with photos, and patiently answered my text questions. Samantha went above and beyond the required. Great communication skills. Reliable, responsible, and flexible. I highly recommend Samantha!
Enjoying our vacation was easy knowing our baby was in the very capable hands of Camille! She goes above and beyond to make sure our finicky kitty is comfortable, happy, & well taken care of. She’s incredibly professional & the communication is top tier, which is just what we look for in a pet sitter. Our baby boy isn’t always the sweetest to strangers, so we were elated to see how well he got along with Camille. She has a way with animals. We travel often and haven’t lived in the area for long, so we didn’t have any other option than Rover. Our first booking was scary, but we got sooo lucky with Camille. We still feel guilty having to leave behind our baby, but knowing he’s in more than capable hands takes away some of that stress. I would give you 10 stars if I could!
Xander was super thorough and a huge help while I was away. Would absolutely recommend and book again!
Ashley always goes above and beyond to take care of my pups. I really appreciate her detailed descriptions of the visits and all the photos!
My cats are a bit skittish and Morgan did such a great job of earning their trust. By the end, Morgan was sending me much appreciated videos of them coming up to her for cuddles!
This is my second review because I feel moved to reiterate how wonderful Amelia is…. My cats adore her and she is simply the best!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Nikki was wonderful! She was professional, on time for all drop ins, great with using the Rover card and adding pictures of my dog. Nikki even noticed that my senior dog was having some anxiety due to fireworks and gave him his anxiety meds and replaced his potty pads. Highly recommend- will reach out to her again for pet sitting!
Cristina is the best cat sitter we've ever had. She clearly loves animals, she asked thoughtful questions when meeting us and gave great updates throughout the days of her cat sitting for us. She really went above and beyond for our kitties, Fiona and Moses, and we will certainly turn to Cristina for our future cat sitting needs. If you want a sitter who is conscientious, attentive, and will give your furry family members the love they deserve, look no further!
Paula is wonderful! She’s very responsive and sent the cutest pictures of my pup during her visits. He’s very shy and she is wonderful with him. Book her if you get the chance!! Unless I beat you to it…
Chayanne was great with our dog Goose! Always arrived for drop ins when she said she would and offered her lots of playtime! We’ll be booking again when needed!
