“Collette did a wonderful job caring for our two cats, and definitely made our first Rover experience a comfortable one. We were given updates and photos at each visit which was greatly appreciated. Our cats weren't too interested in eating while we were away and Collette kept track of that. She quickly figured out our older cat was being boujee and only wanted fresh food. Collette happily appeased her. 10/10 recommend Collette.”
“Holly is absolutely great with my cat, and I feel much better knowing she is caring for her. Highly recommend her to anyone who wants the absolute best care for their pet.”
“Misty was wonderful with my cat, Apollo, over Thanksgiving! I was out of state and completely at ease knowing she was taking such great care of him. She sent daily updates and photos, which made being away so much easier. I had just bought an automatic feeder that started malfunctioning right after I left, and Misty handled it perfectly, making sure Apollo was fed and cared for. It really reinforced how important it is to have someone reliable checking in, even if you have automatic feeders and a water fountain. I’m so grateful for her help and will definitely book with her again! 🐾”
“Katherine took great care of our Sally. Communication was excellent and she followed instructions well. She is reliable, we look forward to working with her again and would highly recommend.”

Sasha really has a different relationship with them that fulfills her need for a larger family I need them to be a part of her life for as long as they can. ❤️❤️❤️ I recommend for special needs cats and cats that are by themselves.

About: I have taken care of and loved all types of dogs for as long as I can remember. I currently have 3 large dogs of my own, one of which is a senior who needs daily medications. Family, friends and neighbors have always relied on me to take great care of their pets! I am currently a stay at home mom which means I will have plenty of time to play with and take care of your pets! My availability ranges from 9am-9pm, all week long!

They have 3 acres to roam around and explore! We also have a cat who loves her indoor life and gets along great with the dogs! My oldest dog is 10 and has a few medical issues, so giving medications is not a new responsibility for me and I am completely comfortable with doing so.

Potomac cat parents share their Rover experiences
Emma was so great! This was my first time hiring a cat sitter and was kind of nervous about it, but she made me so comfortable and she gave me great updates about how my cats were doing. I appreciated the photos and detailed summaries after her visits. She also cat sit over Christmas and was able to do it last minute, so I feel very lucky.
Mary B. was an awesome sitter for Dodger. Dodger is typically a very shy cat and he really loved her. She even stayed a little extra when my kitty threw up on the carpet. She did an awesome job while I was out of the country and was very respectful of my home. She also sent me beautiful photos and videos of him which were wonderful to view while I was away. I would recommend Mary as a pet sitter to anyone with a cat.
