Just had a meet and greet with James. Really respectful and professional! He took the time to listen to our concerns and started to introduce himself to our dog Mae. I couldn’t have been more impressed and glad I contacted his for our first experience with Rover

Lydia is awesome. Super reliable and accommodating. Just helped me out with only one-day notice. And my cats like her, which is saying a lot. I’ve hired Lydia multiple times and will continue to so.

I highly recommend Jon. He's very responsive to communication and good with my pets. He's responsible and showed up when he said he would. I'm so glad he was available both times we've needed a dog watcher. We very much appreciate him!!

We had set up a 30 minute meet and greet. He arrived on time.we sat and chatted. Romeo got up On the couch and laid beside him. He liked Kevin’s arm. We took a stroll in our community dog park. I think he was surprised by the degree of Romeo’s fear aggression . There were three little dogs that showed up with their owner off leash and were not obeying commands. We simply held on and walk out of the park.

Rich did a fantastic job taking care of our three babies, two dogs and one cat. Our little girl is a recent rescue and not well socialized. Rich took the time to get to know her and gained her confidence. He gave us piece of mind while away. We are truly grateful for Rich.

About: I have hands-on experience providing reliable, loving care for dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, administering basic care routines, and maintaining a safe, calm environment. I prioritize each pet’s comfort, routine, and emotional well-being, treating every animal as if they were my own. I’m attentive to behavior cues, patient with all temperaments, and committed to keeping pets happy, healthy, and stress-free while their owners are away. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine as a consistent responsibility that I plan around other commitments. On a daily basis, I incorporate feeding, walking, playtime, and check-ins into structured time blocks to ensure pets stay on their normal schedule. Weekly, I schedule pet sitting jobs in advance, allowing time for longer stays, exercise, and maintaining routines like grooming or medication if needed. I prioritize reliability and make sure each pet receives focused attention without rushing or overlap in care. I care for pets in their home by maintaining their normal routine in a familiar, low-stress environment. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and bedtime routines. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them consistent attention, affection, and supervision. I also keep their space clean, including litter boxes or outdoor areas, and ensure fresh water is always available. I respect the home by keeping it tidy and secure, and I provide updates so owners have peace of mind while they’re away.

Jay was fantastic!! We had a last minute trip and she was able to accommodate our schedule with no problems l, even with very short notice. She dropped in on Tucker, played with him, gave him a good run around the back yard and fed him dinner. And she gave a little love to the kitties :-) A true animal lover, highly recommend Jay! She won’t let you down!!

Maureen did an amazing job with my shy anti social cat Sonny. It was clear that she really engaged with him because he had none of the "annoyed cat" attitude when I got home. I would gladly book her again, in fact I am after I post this review. If you need a great pet sitter, Maureen is the person!

Cesar is amazing!! He took care of my three cats while we were out of town for our wedding, over the past 9 days our kitties were in great care with Cesar’s drop in visits! He went above and beyond our expectations. Truly kept the litter boxes clean and swept around them! He changed their food and water and made sure they were safe! Cesar is trust worthy and respectful! He kept us updated throughout the whole process, sending us lots of loving photos and even keeping us updated on the weather! He is soo kind and truly loves animals, we have gold fish here too, even thou we were feeding them pebbles with the automatic feeder he noticed the fish and added some bounce flacks when he visited (out of the kindness of his heart). SO NICE! If you are looking for someone to care for your pets, I HIGHLY recommend Cesar he is very knowledgeable and caring, he followed every step I gave him and went beyond that. He even offered to have a free meet and great so the animals could get to know him! SO THOUGHTFUL. unfortunately my tight schedule wouldn’t allow it but, it’s the thought he puts in that counts! Thank you so much Cesar you are a true blessing to us and our animals! Until next time! 💕

While I don’t have a private yard, I’m close to dog-friendly outdoor areas and take dogs out regularly for walks and fresh air. • One household at a time (no mixing with other pets) • Full-time supervision (I work from home) • Calm, clean home environment • Frequent photo updates so you always know how they’re doing Feel free to reach out with any questions, I’m happy to set up a quick meet & greet to make sure it’s the right fit for you and your pet 😊 I work from home and have a flexible schedule so I am available to give your pet all the love, attention and exercise they need throughout the day!

I knew our cats were in good hands with Molly all week long! We were away for a trip and she was reliable and communicative the whole time, I didn't need to worry about a thing. Plus our normally reserved cat walked right up to her for a nose boop when they initially met--a terrific match!
