“Kiffin has been a lifesaver in helping me care for my two rambunctious puppies! She’s communicative and caring and always a goes the extra mile. :)”
2. Mariah & Nathan M.
“We had such a WONDERFUL experience with Mariah and Nathan. Communication with them was always prompt and the regular updates from them (with pictures) made us at-ease with being away and confident that our 2 cats were cared for. Having 2 cats, one geriatric and one that needed oral medication 2x a day, they were very attentive to each needs. We will MOST DEFINITELY reach out to them for future needs because of how great of an experience we have had. As new users to Rover, we had initial apprehension, but meeting them made us feel confident that our cats were provided caring and competent care!”

“I’ve known Basia For many years. She is an exceptional young lady who is responsible, conscientious and caring. She has taken care of my pets many times and being an avid animal lover, I would only trust a most compassionate person to take care of them. I was always confident they would receive excellent care, as she treated them as if they were her own . I was so fortunate to have her as my pet sitter before she moved on to college. I highly recommend her services to all pet lovers. Rest assured, they will be taken care of with love and kindness!”
17. Violet S.
“Violet has cared for my dogs several times. The first time she met them, she was sitting on the floor with them within 5 minutes. They were so comfortable with her that we knew right away that our dogs sensed Violet was a good person. Right before we left on our first trip away, one of our dogs required eye drops due to a corneal abrasion. Violet did not shy away from administering those drops as well as the other oral meds that our furbabies required. While we were away, she sent us pictures and updates on how they were all doing. We had such a good experience, we've asked Violet to take care of our pups on other occasions. I'd recommend Violet for anyone looking to for someone to take care of their furbabies!”
