“Thanks for your help with the fur babies, Vicky! You were extremely kind, gentle, and attentive to them while I was away on a trip.”
2. Kelley J.
“Kelly did a great job taking care of our fur babies. Kelly knew how to interact with the four personality differences with our kitties. Her excellent care and great communication with us while we were away was reassuring. We will definitely be utilizing her again!”
3. Jill G.
“Jill was absolutely FANTASTIC while watching our two cats while we were on vacation! She sent thorough updates on the tasks she completed as well as how the cats were doing. She had excellent intuition and was able to problem-solve a few small hiccups before we could bring them up, which only further increased our confidence and appreciation for Jill! Will happily rebook and recommend to anyone!”
4. Georgia M.
“Was totally satisfied with Georgia’s care for my two elderly cats (including one who needs insulin shots). Everything went smoothly and I was able to enjoy time away with family knowing my cats were just fine!”
5. Kat E.
“Kat did a fantastic job taking care of our cat and providing detailed updates about how the visits went. She was very helpful, caring towards our cat, and trustworthy!”
6. Addison G.
“Highly recommend! Addison has watched my dog Luna multiple times, and I’ve been very happy each time. She’s reliable, always arrives on time and communicates if there’s any change in arrival. She gives Luna a great walk and is very understanding if I ever need to cancel”
7. Shannon N.
“I’m so happy to have found Shannon to care for our cats. This is the first time I’ve used Rover, and I’m glad I did. Shannon went above and beyond checking in on our shy boy, Diego, and befriending our aloof calico, Frida. It really put my mind at ease knowing that Shannon was there. I loved getting notes with updates and pictures after each visit. I’ll definitely be booking Shannon again in the near future!”
8. Derian C.
“Derian was amazing! She worked for us last minute over the holidays and had to deal with medications. She sent us plenty of photos and tips every day - including Christmas!! Our cat Macy adored her and we just wish we had met Derian sooner.”
9. Annie J.
“Annie was absolutely fantastic! She was available last minute and on Thanksgiving which was amazing. She was very friendly and very professional, and did a wonderful job taking care of our cat! Her profile is definitely more dog-focused but she is perfect for cats as well. If we need a pet sitter again I will be going with Annie every single time if she is available. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
10. Peggy P.
“Peggy is an excellent petsitter-- we had her drop in to check on our cat while out of town, and she was really attentive and kind to our girl! I really appreciated her daily updates, and everything went perfectly-- 10/10, would recommend to friends nd family!”
11. Kendall M.
“Kendall is a great pet sitter! Of the years, I’ve seen Kendall care for many breeds of dogs, cats, guinea pigs and geckos. For each breed of animals, Kendall is very knowledgeable of their needs and how to take care of them. Kendall is very responsible and is responsive to the pet’s needs.”
12. Jaclyn J.
“We will be booking Jaclyn again! Jaclyn took great care of our super social cat while we were out of town. We really appreciated her going above and beyond to play with him and check on his litter. Great sitter who clearly loves kitties. Thanks, Jaclyn!”
13. Tiffanie P.
“Tiffany was great. I could tell from the pictures that my cat felt loved.”
14. Brittney & Cody E.
“Very loving and caring couple. Committed to caring for pets”
15. Alyssa F.
“Alyssa was so amazing and kind, and I felt super comfortable with her checking on our cats!! She took so many pictures and took the time to play with them despite the fact that she was just stopping in to feed them😭 our cats are pretty shy but it was really clear that she made them feel comfortable and safe because they never show themselves to pet-sitters, but they both came downstairs and ate for her! I really appreciated her vibes and personality and will definitely be reaching out to her again for our cats in the future!”
16. Hannah A.
“She did a great job checking in on our girl and getting her outside and making sure she had food and water. We felt extremely comfortable with her in our home and look forward to booking her again for check in visits.”
17. Renae D.
“Renae came on short notice and jumped through extra hoops to take care of my cat with no complaints. She was pleasant, and we felt immediately comfortable that our cat was going to be taken care of while Renae was visiting. We enjoyed the photos, her great communication, and that she took care of things that she saw needed taken care of. Thank you, Renae.”
18. Sarah L.
“Sarah is a perfect example of what a pet sitter should be like. She is kind, communicative, cautious, thorough, and genuinely cares about the job she is doing. This is my first time using a pet sitter and with having professional background myself in pet care and doggie daycare and boarding, I was hesitant to hire someone knowing that there are some people who don't take this field of work seriously. Sarah completely dissolved my worries and made me feel safe to rely on her. She went out of her way to make sure she established a relationship with my pets with a meet and greet and made sure she had all of the necessary information before she took care of my pets. It is a huge plus and a huge sign that my animals were their best selves with her. Absolutely will be using her services again!”
19. Zhalih T.
“This was our second time having Zhalih and I couldn't be happier. She is absolutely amazing with my cat, Frazier. It's clear that she genuinely loves animals, she goes above and beyond to make sure he's not just cared for but entertained and happy. She even took care of his wrestling match with his litter! It's little things like this that show us just how wonderful people can be. My husband and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter, especially one that truly cares. She is the best!”
20. Julia S.
“Julia did a great job with my dog. She checked In multiple times a day and really went the extra mile to make sure my dog was taken care of (including giving him his daily medicine). Will definitely keep her in mind for future checkins!”
