9. Shelly M.

“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn't hope for a better experience. Shelly was professional, communicative, and easy to work with. She provided us with daily updates and pictures of our cats, When we returned home we saw our cat's food corner cleaner and more organized then we left it. This community could use more people like Shelly.”


10. Esther C.

“Esther was such a great last minute sitter! I really appreciate all the visits she gave to help out feeding Hibiscus! She was very understanding that she was a shy new foster cat and was very sweet to feed her and make sure she had a clean safe place! Thank you Esther!”


11. Becky H.

“Becky went above and beyond in taking care of our cats. She was incredibly communicative, quickly responded to our cats' many antics, and was attentive to every detail of their care. Because of her great sense of humor, we were excited every time a new Rover card was posted, where her love and care for our cats was apparent. It can be hard to leave your pets with a stranger, but we felt completely at ease knowing that Becky was taking care of them. We would recommend her to all pet parents looking for a reliable and conscientious sitter.”

14. Stacy A.
“Stacy is an extremely loving and attentive pet owner and has shown my pets that same kindness and care. I’m always impressed by her capability to manage caring for my dog along with her own. My dog is a recent rescue and needed extra patience which she was able to provide. It meant so much to see my dog open up and trust another person. She’s one of the only people I’d trust with my pets and that helps me to rest easy when I’m away.”


15. Shawn M.
“We're so lucky to have met Shawn and to have had him care for our 2 Golden Retrievers. He's not only consistent and an excellent communicator, but he's incredibly kind and loving towards them. They get so excited to see him when he comes to take them for their walks. It's really nice to have peace of mind, knowing they're in the best hands. Thank you Shawn!!”

“Could not have asked for a better first experience from using a cat-sitter from Rover. Patrick knows exactly how to take care of your cat with care like it’s his own and also giving check-ins that make you feel like your pet is having the time of their life. I would highly recommend Patrick and his care to anyone with a feline friend.”

“Anchisa’s love for dogs is amazing. She takes such great care of every dog with so much love and energy. I always have her look after my 3-year-old dog when I’m out of town or just need someone to walk him while I’m at work. She gives him all her attention, and my dog loves her!”
