Michael was an amazing surrogate while I was away for work. He walked, played with and generally loved my Paco and that’s exactly what I wanted. Michael does not disappoint. It was a comfort to me and alleviated any concerns so that I was able to function and focus on my work without any worries about my best pet-friend. I highly recommend Michael and will definitely call him should I need such a service again. I can’t say enough good about him! He also sent pictures twice a day which were the highlight of my day. Thanks and very big kudos to Michael!

Christina did a wonderful job taking care of my two dogs during the holidays this year. We arrived home after a week away and my babies were happy, well fed, and relaxed. I feel so happy to have found Christina. I will be booking her again!

Adam impressed us from minute 1 with his knowledge and understanding of how to train dogs and influence behaviour. Our puppy Scilly bonded with him faster than any stranger we had visiting before. In summary invaluable advice and a very pleasant experience. I feel 100 % comfortable leaving Scilly with Adam.

Excellent caregiver. His sincere affection for all creatures is evident. He provided exceptional care for my pet and was incredibly accommodating. The peace of mind knowing my pet was well cared for was priceless. I highly recommend him for any future pet-sitting needs!

I couldn’t rant and rave about Victoria more. Not only is she personally the sweetest person ever. But he love for my car Fred was above and beyond. She was very communicative during all visits and even went above and beyond and cleaned and kept Fred’s area nice and tidy! I even have referred her to other people already and they all have said raving things as well. I’m so blessed I found her!

Jake wasn’t able to get into our apartment till 30 minutes past his start time because our doorman was out and he stuck around 10 minutes past his end time to make up for it without us asking. He was friendly with our puppy and attentive.

Liza is like a second dog mamma to our Eskie. It’s clear that she loves animals and we trust her completely with our dog. It’s great to see our dog run towards Liza, spin around a few times and roll over for her belly rubs. We feel very lucky to have found Liza and recommend her to anybody searching for a trustworthy, kind and personable pet sitter.

Lauren was amazing. She took great care of my cat. Whilma, my cat, is 12 years old with lots of special needs to attend to. Lauren met all of her needs abundantly, provided so many pictures and detailed updates. Her attentiveness allowed me to feel relaxed and confident that Whilma was in good hands. I returned to a pristine home (just as I left it) and a happy kitty! I will be a returning customer!

Kyle is actually incredible and couldn’t recommend more. This was my first time using the Rover app and was a little hesitant at first, however, Kyle went above and beyond here. I felt like Kyle really bonded with my kitties and really went the extra mile in getting to know them and making sure they felt fully comfortable when he dropped in 110% will be booking him again, I can’t recommend enough

I’ve already reviewed her, but the app is asking me to do so again. She’s the best. You should always hire her. She’s thoughtful and goes above and beyond each time. Even my doorman tells me how lovely she is when she comes. I literally cannot more highly recommend her.
