Luis was wonderful with our cat Mango when we needed last minute care over the holidays! He was super communicative and made sure to spend quality time with her while we were away.

Lauren was absolutely amazing watching my dogs for three days! From the moment we connected, she was professional, warm, and incredibly attentive. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly loved on the entire time. She followed all instructions perfectly and treated them like her own. When I returned, everything was clean, organized, and my pups were calm and content — which says everything. It’s not easy trusting someone with your fur babies, but Lauren exceeded every expectation. I would 100% book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate care. Thank you, Lauren! 🐾💛

About: I am aware of pets’ needs. Whether they need a slow, assisted stroll or an energetic play session, I’ve got you covered. I have vast experience in caring for mobility-impaired seniors (including administering meds and using lifting harnesses), reactive dogs, as well as puppies who need active socialization and clear boundaries. From personal experience, I have 3 dogs of my own (including an 11 year old senior) and I recognize each pet as an individual with differing personalities and needs. Working part-time from home gives me the flexibility to be there when your pet needs me most. I can easily shift my working hours to accommodate specific walk times or multiple drop-ins throughout the day, ensuring your pet stays on their preferred schedule. Before every service, I conduct a thorough meet and greet to understand your pet's routine and your home's security needs (alarms, locks, and gates). While in your home, I am extremely detail-oriented and will be sure to keep your pet and home safe. I am a non-smoker, clean, and respectful guest. You can expect daily photo updates and quick communication so you can relax knowing your fur babies and your home are in safe hands.

About: I grew up with a lot of dog breeds (Doberman, German Shepard, Poodle mixes, Pomeranian), and I currently have a cat. I have a lot of time until I start my new job to care full time for your pet! I am currently waiting to start my job in July, so I be full availability until then. Happy to watch pets full time for the first part of summer. I live in a doorman building with an unfenced green patch in front where all the neighborhood dogs play. I am also near a park and a neighborhood great for walking.

Vitaliy is the most thoughtful pet caregiver we’ve ever worked with. He was able to come care for our kitties on short notice and we are very grateful. He was very thorough with their care, even with things we forgot to mention, and is excellent at communicating. Next time we need someone to take care of our cats, we hope he will be available because we had nothing but peace of mind knowing our kitties were being taken care of by Vitaliy.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets for over 10 years now. I have experience with non-neutered cats and elderly dogs with sicknesses. I’ve done all things such as playing, feeding, walking dogs, bathing, distributing medicine, and taking any animals to vet appointments. I’ve worked with kittens to adults cats and with adult to elderly dogs. I tried to prioritize as much time as I can to any animal I take care of. I currently work part-time at my other job so I am very flexible! I will be going to college in the fall, but for the summer I'm available during the weekends on Fridays through Mondays during mornings and afternoons. I'm away for house sitting at the moment, but the longest I could sit would be up to 8 hours. Please let me know your own preferences when it comes to drop in's and dog walking, I'd be happy to settle with you! My home is not in use for in use for boarding. I could meet with you before services through a personal meet up or by a video call, what ever you feel most comfortable with! I will always look after my environment in every setting I'm in.

About: I have a huge animal-less hole in my heart to fill!! I always grew up with a dog and a cat in our home: a German shepherd, Jasmine, then a Welsh terrier, Rex, and kitties Madeline, and Isabel. While I mostly took on the play duties with the pets, I began my pet-sitting journey in elementary school watching my neighbors' cats when they were away and, eventually dogs and cats of my high school friends. Since starting my pet-sitting journey, I have done drop-in visits, dog walking, and house-sitting. I love spending time outdoors, whether at a park, on a walk, or in your backyard! It's important for me to provide gentle love to pets while also abiding by the training they follow. I have cared for up to two animals at a time which is what I feel most comfortable and confident in! I'm not afraid to pull up my sleeves and take care of sh*t (literally!) I loooove taking pictures and will always share pics with your little babies, maybe even a little photo shoot :) I am an entrepreneur growing a Pilates and Wellness business! I have the luxury to create my own schedule and make time for your babies! When visiting someone else's home, I have very high respect for the space I am in. I leave places I have been cleaner than I found them and take care of the home I am in. It’s important to me for your four legged friends to feel safe and comfortable as if you were there all along.

Hope far exceeded our expectations. This was our first time using rover and first time leaving our fur baby with someone other than friends and family. Hope was so communicative, loved on our baby, and was just the best person we could’ve trusted to take care of our family. We will 100% be using her in the future and we could not recommend her more! Thank you Hope!!!!

Calvin was an amazing pet sitter and we will absolutely book with them again. He was very responsive, asked specific questions about our pets that showed his experience, and was incredibly easy to work with. It was clear that Calvin took the time to get to know our two cats and their personalities. His summaries and the pictures made us feel so much better about leaving for several days in a row. I highly recommend Monica and Calvin to anyone who wants a worry free vacation away from their fur children.
