1. Carole N.

“Carole was absolutely wonderful, and I recommend her highly. She did a great job caring for my shy cat and helping my cat get comfortable enough to come out for pets, even in the short time span of a weekend. Carole was also great to interact with, and I really appreciated her detailed check-ins, consistently prompt replies, and generally easy communication. I definitely recommend her!”


2. Natsha D.

“Natsha was so kind and took wonderful care of my cat! It was my first time using Rover for catsitting, but Natsha made it a very comfortable experience for my cat and gave me lots of peace of mind! She spent a lot of time with him everyday that I was gone and I’m very happy with her petsitting!”


3. Lisa B.

“Lisa took such great care of my shy cat while we were away, and her daily updates helped calm my anxiety of leaving my cat. She followed my instructions carefully and left the house in the same condition we left it. Plus, she watered the plants! I will be using her again!”


4. Jen N.

“I can leave my cat with Jen and feel confident that she will be given the attention and care she deserves. Jen is an all-star, and I am fortunate to have her taking care of my companion.”


5. Jessica A.

“Jess was available with only a few days notice and was very prompt with all responses while scheduling. While last minute isn’t how I like to roll, our holiday plans changed unexpectedly. She did a great job with my instructions caring for our senior cat and left everything in perfect order. I’d recommend her without hesitation!”


6. Mankamal D.

“Mankamal is the best pet sitter! She did drop-in visits when I was out of the country. Super consistent and clear communications with update photos. I would recommend!!”


7. Amanda L.

“Amanda did an amazing job taking care of our two cats while we were away for a weekend. She’s super friendly and knowledgeable about cats. She sent lots of photos and updates! We knew they were in such great hands with her and look forward to using her again.”

“Sarah is fantastic—responsive, flexible when some of my plans changed at the last minute, and so sweet with my cat. Can’t wait to rebook with her!”


11. Melissa K.

“Melissa is so fantastic. She is flexible, responsive to communication, and great with animals. We got wonderful photos and updates when during her drop in visits with our cat Nora. We felt like Nora was in very good hands and that she had lots of fun with Melissa. We would definitely book Melissa again and would highly recommend her.”


12. Lily W.

“Lily did a great job caring for our two cats! They’re very shy but she was able to make a little progress. She was on time with her visits and they were very well taken care of!”


13. shupeng l.

“We are truly grateful to Shupeng for taking care of our dog. He was incredibly attentive and patient, making sure everything was spotless while also giving our pup plenty of love and attention. Not only did he clean up thoroughly, but he also took the time to play with our dog, which means so much to us. His kindness and dedication really put our minds at ease. We highly recommend Shupeng to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet sitter!”


14. Faith L.
“My dog, Honey, absolutely loves when Faith comes to watch and hang out with her. Honey is a very energetic and excitable dog and Faith always gives her the exercise, attention, and love that Honey needs. Whether it comes in the form of throwing the ball, going for a walk, playing tug-a-war, or training with treats, I never have to worry about if Honey will be exercised, happy, or fulfilled after Faith stays/checks-in on her. Honey and I can’t recommend Faith enough for any of your pet needs.”


15. Liz W.

“River was great with our cats and took the time to pet and play with them each day. Loved getting the pics and knowing they were safe while we were travelling!”


16. Teddy S.

“Teddy responded to my last-minute call for help immediately and though it was only for a quick overnight, took great care of my elder cat. She got him to eat well, which isn't always easy and spent some quality time with him, letting him outside on a sunny day which he loves. I would definitely recommend Teddy and will be using her services again.”


17. Sedona P.
“Sedona has cared for our two dogs (Doberman and Labradoodle) along with our three cats! She is very conscientious and loves pets. For the dogs, Sedona is very athletic and takes them out for walks and ball retrieval games often. I have no hesitation recommending Sedona you and your pets will be pleased”


18. Emmery K.
“Emmery would be a fantastic caregiver for any family and any type of pet, providing attentive, nonjudgmental care. She has two furry friends at her childhood home who she has taken care of for over 15 years. Calling them her “everything” wouldn’t even begin to capture their importance in her life. She is perfect for this position as she misses them dearly while living away from her parent’s house. You will find her to be trustworthy, respectful, diligent, and kind - you will not be disappointed.”


19. Mayella V.
“If you’re looking for someone who will provide not just excellent care, but also kindness and attention to your furry family members, Mayella is the perfect choice. She is reliable, responsible, and has a natural talent for making pets and their humans feel at ease. I couldn’t recommend her enough!”


20. Alondra A.
“I highly recommend Alondra as a pet sitter! She took amazing care of my Yorkie for two days, making sure he was well-fed, played with, and even gave him a bath. She truly goes above and beyond to keep pets happy, active, and comfortable. Her love for animals is clear, and I had complete peace of mind knowing my pup was in great hands!”
