Pennington-Prospect pet parents share their Rover experiences
Brandi was absolutely wonderful with our three cats during the seven days we were away. Each of our cats has a very unique personality, and she took the time to understand and accommodate their different needs for pets, playtime, and supplements. She kept the litter boxes fresh, the water bowls topped up, and even wiped down the counters for us. She easily navigated our tricky parking situation and was thoughtful enough to offer to water our plants while we were gone. We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats, and we’re so grateful for the care and attention she gave them. Highly recommend!
Jen did a wonderful job of taking care of a cat who is afraid of people and hides whenever the doorbell rings or someone comes in. Bella also needed medication while I was gone so I had to confine her to a specific room and Jen handled keeping her from escaping as well. I don't think Bella was won over, but Jen was the best possible caregiver for her because she's calm and quiet. I'm grateful for the level of care and caring Bella received and I'd hire Jen again in a heartbeat.
Outstanding. That’s one word I can use to describe Josh. I have two dogs. One is very old, 13. I’m always worried about my golden retriever when I’m away. Josh sent me pictures that reassured me that the older dog was OK daily. He also vacuumed up dog hair, which was a pleasant surprise to come home too. The daily walks and the daily visits are priceless. Thank you Josh!! If you’re looking for a dog sitter, or a realtor Josh is your man. Very pleasant demeanor and very organized. With this type of work ethic, you can’t go wrong with Josh. Thanks again from my family! Tk
I highly recommend Arassely to anyone looking for a professional and attentive pet sitter. From the start, communication was clear, prompt, and reassuring. She followed all care instructions closely and took the time to get to know my pet’s personality and routines. I received thoughtful updates and photos throughout the visits, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I returned home to a happy, well-cared-for pet and a tidy space. It’s clear that Arassely takes their responsibility seriously and truly cares about the animals they look after. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again.
This was my second time using Ashley and she was just as amazing as the first. She truly cares about dogs and always goes above and beyond. She was reliable, communicative, and gave each of my three dogs so much love and attention. I came home to happy relaxed pups and a clean space. I completely trust her and will definitely book her again. Highly recommend.
Kathleen did an outstanding job of caring for Bella while I was away. When I returned from my trip, Bella was happy and healthy. It was such a relief to know that she was in good hands. Kathleen communicated with me daily and sent pictures each day. Kathleen provided excellent care for my cat and I would highly recommend her to for anyone who wants an assurance that your pets will be treated with loving kindness in your absence.
Emily is an absolute joy! She communicates quickly and when she met our dog Rocco it was crystal clear she was highly experienced with approaching and working with dogs. She arrived on time and kept us informed of how Rocco did on his walks. Will absolutely book again!!
