Brian did a great job caring for Gordie. Each day we looked forward to seeing the photos he would send along. He was prompt at replying to any inquiries we had.

Sarah was wonderful - this was our first experience using Rover and I was pleasantly surprised! She answers very quickly and is super flexible - we met with her a week prior, had her over to meet the cats and us, and walked her through their care routine. Her report cards after each visits were super detailed, she took pictures of the clean litter boxes and full bowls of food to let us know that our babies were taken care of. Super grateful for our awesome experience. We’ll definitely be using Sarah again.

Christine went above and beyond caring for our cats and home while we were away. It's never easy leaving your furry loved ones, but knowing they are in great hands gives me peace of mind.

Thanks, Lauren. My cats were so well cared for and happy during your overnight week of stays with them. They will love any visits in the future.

We’ve been using Doug as a pet sitter for a while now, and we highly recommend him. Doug is not only reliable but also genuinely enthusiastic about caring for our cats. We never have to worry about anything when they’re in his care. He ensures they get plenty of attention, including playtime and cuddles, which helps keep them happy while we’re away. Our cats require daily medication, and Doug handles this with ease, showing he’s comfortable with more complex care needs. I highly recommend his services to anyone—your pets will be in excellent hands, and you’ll have peace of mind knowing they’re well cared for.

Natalie has been absolutely fantastic with my four dogs. She handles them all with no problem at all. She is responsible and flexible with schedule changes and that has been a big help as my work schedule does fluctuate. The dogs just love her and we feel very fortunate to have her as our daily pet sitter. I would strongly recommend Natalie if you are looking for peace of mind when it comes to having someone trustworthy to care for your pets.

Chloe did great with my cat, Ellie. She came over twice a day with no issues and fed, watered, and cleaned the litter area for Ellie when I was out of town for two weeks. The house looks spotless and Ellie appreciated the company. Highly recommended!

About: I have had cats for over 10 years. I love them; they are my family! I have experience with cats of different ages. I also have experience administering medicine, both topically and orally. I love meeting new cats and I cannot wait to meet your fur-babies! I own a bakery so I make my own hours. I work most days, but can easily come before, after, or during work if needed for a check in! I will adapt my visits to best suit your cat. Do they like to be left alone? Fine with me! I’ll see if they’re doing okay and let them be. Do they like attention? Even better! I will give them so many pets! I want them to be as comfortable as possible!

Kathleen went above and beyond to make sure she gave my cat his injections. He was difficult but she was a trooper and got the job done. I very much appreciate all her hard work. I would highly recommend her.

Carolyn was amazing! She went above and beyond, even taking thoughtful steps such as taking my trash can out for trash day despite me not requesting her to. She provided great photos and updates on my cats that really helped me to feel assured that they were in good hands while I was away. She even took the time to try and get my boys to come out of their shells a little! Would definitely recommend!!

Mark was MORE THAN WONDERFUL!!! I’m usually a worry wart when leaving my cats or dog, but Mark really put my mind at ease. I knew my sweet babies were in good hands. He followed on instructions to a tee, asked questions for clarification, and sent us many, many pictures of our pets. I missed my 3 cats so much, but Mark made leaving them a little easier by taking such thorough care of them. We will not hesitate to book with Mark again in the future.

About: Love is a four legged word and we are blessed to have these sweet angels in our lives. I have always loved animals. From volunteering at a local cat shelter to a dog rescue where I lived in Vermont. I always find love in my heart when I'm with animals. I have experience with little doggos to large doggos. I have sat for puppies that were two months old to vintage dogs that are 17 years old. Your doggo gets to go for a walk, play fetch, and cuddles. And perhaps a song made up just for them! I offer daily drop in visits that you can schedule weekly or overnights when you are out of town. I have experience with medication as well. As a former yoga studio owner, I take professionalism and responsibility seriously and will communicate with you as soon as I can. I have references upon request. I look forward to meeting your special friend! I am a full time dog sitter so I have open availability for drop ins and overnights. I have references upon request. Looking forward to connecting with you today. I will always send a picture update of your furry friend at every visit. I will communicate if there are any updates with the visit.

Cece did a great job taking care of our cats over the busy Thanksgiving holiday. We received updates daily and our kitties were happy when we came home. I would recommend to anyone thinking about leaving their pets with a caregiver to use Cece.
