I love these updates. Erika is very nice and always willing to work with me on times due to my current work schedule. I can’t see having anyone else take care of my fur-babies while I’m away.

Maylynn was so sweet but most of all I loved how my boys reacted to her. It let me know that she is a good person and that my cats were in good hands while I was away. She was on time for both drop in’s and even made sure to give them some playtime. I’ll definitely be using Maylynn again and recommend her to everyone.

Hunter watched our cats while we were away and was amazing! We received pictures and updates everyday, plus our cats seemed super comfortable and were even laying on Hunter’s lap. We’ll definitely book with Hunter again the next time we’re traveling!

Jill was amazing. I contacted her at the last minute and hired her sight unseen based on her reviews. My puppy Charli is everything to us and I am SO excited as I feel we hit the jackpot having found her!!! I have peace of mind knowing if I need to be away from Charli, Jill is the perfect fill in for Mommie?

Overall, I would rate Lindsay as a good pet-sitter. Prior to our vacation, she was very timely in responding to my messages and she also modified the Rover.com charges to a very reasonable rate for her visits with our 2 cats. It was while we were gone that I felt she fell short. My first issue was with her inconsistency in providing updates on the visits - there was a photo and thorough recap on the 1st day, but on subsequent days there was less detail and on one day there was no update at all. My second issue was with the timing of her visits. I had made it very clear that it was important to check in during the early afternoon, but at least twice she didn't visit until the evening. My third issue was with attention to detail - I had left very specific notes about the cats' food/water/litter and it didn't seem that she had followed them. Lastly, my greatest concern was with the well-being of our female cat and her being bullied by the male cat in our absence. We came back to find that she had a facial injury and had urinated in a chair out of fear. All-in-all our pets were reasonably cared for, but I was definitely disappointed. Lindsay is a very nice girl and I'm sure she had the best intentions. I think the issues may have been due to lack of experience or perhaps I wasn't clear enough on stressing the importance of certain things. (To those reading this review, please note that I have very high expectations for the care of my pets and I think Lindsay is absolutely capable of meeting the needs of a less demanding client.)

Katie was amazing! She was communicative and very kind. It was our first time using a sitter through Rover and we were not disappointed. Katie was friendly and accommodated all our needs. For the first time, I could say that we vacationed stress and worry-free. Our babies were in great hands. We have a cat and dogs and she catered to their needs very well especially since my Lion (dog) needs extra love when we are away during 4th of July weekend! I highly recommend her and will be looking forward to having her back. 💗

We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Kaylee for our dog Nikko while we were away for two weeks. From the very beginning, she went above and beyond to make sure he was not only cared for, but truly loved and engaged. Kaylee spent extra time with Nikko, took him on car rides (which he loves!), and made sure he had both fun and comfort while we were gone. It was clear from the photos and updates—and even more so when we returned—that he really enjoyed his time with her. She treated Nikko like her own, and that kind of care is priceless. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We highly recommend Kaylee and would absolutely book with her again!

Your pet stays secure, understood, and consistently well cared for.

Chelsea was great! Throughout our vacation, she sent us so many photos and updates on our pets. It was clear that Chelsea was great with all of them: the cats and the bird loved her! Additionally, she went above and beyond. Our neighbor dropped off something unexpectedly, and she brought in the packages and mail. Couldn't have been happier with her!

About: I have owned a cat for seven years, and I enjoy brushing him, feeding him, giving him treats, cleaning the litter box, and cuddling. Sometimes he comes into my room, jumps on my bed, and sleeps with me. I also walk a puppy, a bulldog, named Buckiss. I clean up after him, and enjoy spending time rubbing his belly, and playing catch. At the end of our walk, I bring him back to his house, feed him, and give him water. I follow strict feeding instructions on how much food to give, and what kind of food he's allowed to have (no more than 2 treats a day). When walking in the winter, I make sure Buckiss has dog booties so his feet don't get hurt. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time in my schedule to care for your pet! I have a pretty flexible schedule. When I come to take care of a pet in my client’s home, I make sure that they are cared for with love and I do everything I can to make them feel safe, happy, and comfortable with me. I also make sure that when I end the stay, the client’s home is in the same or better condition than when I first came. I will make sure to clean after myself and leave the place looking as spotless as I can. I try to be a considerate and clean house guest.

Vera is wonderful! We needed someone to check on our 3 kitties super last minute while we were away because the house got too hot & we were worried about them overheating. She was super accommodating and the cats all loved her, even our oldest who is terrified of strangers. We now knows who we’ll ask to check in on them on future trips. Thanks so much Vera!
