She was so thoughtful and attentive and easily developed a special relationship with our cat, who has never been left alone before. The daily pictures and reports put our mind at ease. The Rover app was helpful when we were overseas. We could not have gone away without Sara!”
“Lianne took exceptional care of my two cats while we were away. She went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable and well looked after. Her detailed report cards and frequent photo updates gave us so much peace of mind. Each message was thoughtful and showed just how attentive she is. I can’t recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”
“Virginia is absolutely amazing! She catered to all four of my cats. She adjusted perfectly to our cat’s particular needs. We have one shy cat who will not come out from under the couch for anyone, but Virginia was able to bond with her and give her the attention she needed. We will be using Virginia for all of our future “cat lovin’” needs!”

“Nicole watched my sweet kitty Nala over the holidays. She was absolutely spectacular and I felt so much comfort knowing Nala was in her hands. She went above and beyond to make sure Nala got cuddles, treats, fresh water, and sent tons of pictures.”
