“Stephanie was very responsive to any questions, and best of all the animals were all very calm when we got home. They usually are overly excited when we return from a trip so this was a relief. We feel she did a great job of looking after our 2 cats and dog.”
4. Felicia H.
“Felicia is a wonderful dog and house sitter! This is the second time she has taken care of the dogs for us. She is warm and loving with the pups and very professional with her obligations. The dogs adore her and we are so glad we came across Felicia on Rover. Communication is strong and we lovingly refer to Felicia as our dog whisperer.”
5. Ayreal Z.
“Ayreal was thorough, attentive, communicated at every step and kept in touch throughout the whole process. She sent photos and updates and made sure all our fur babies were well taken care of. She was very patient with our female cat who is usually the less social one and also took great care of our house and plants as well! We would definitely work with Ayreal again, a trustworthy sitter all around.”
6. Kristina J.
“Kristina was wonderful! She took great care of Bowie, and he was happy and relaxed when we came home. Kristina was communicative and responsible, and left the house clean and tidy. We'd definitely book with her again.”
7. Craig & Chelsea B.
“Craig and Chelsea were amazing. They took such great care of our house and our dog. She was so well loved and taken care of. Our dog is a very anxious dog and she had a blast with them. They were so flexible as well when our flight was delayed a day and they made sure our dog was still well taken care of. So glad we had them taking care of our pup!”
8. Tamara H.
“We had Tamara come for a few hours to watch our two dogs!! They loved her and their walk. We came home to two very happy pups! She also left us a lovely card wishing us a Happy Anniversary with sketches of our dogs. We look forward to booking her again soon.”
9. Lynn B.
“Lynn took great care of our boys! One day a big storm blew up out of nowhere and she rushed back over because she knew one of our dogs did not do well in storms. ❤️ Highly recommend”
10. Emma S.
“I highly recommend Emma as a pet sitter. She has taken care of my pet(s) multiple times, and I couldn’t be happier with the level of care and attention she provides. Emma is reliable, responsible, and truly loves animals. She follows all instructions carefully, keeps me updated with messages and photos, and makes sure my pet(s) get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. Knowing that Emma is looking after them gives me complete peace of mind. If you’re looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter, Emma is the perfect choice. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again!”
11. Kymberly & Robert D.
“Kym was great! I enjoyed getting to know her before we left. She came twice to visit and meet with YellowCat. He's generally shy around strangers but warmed up to her during her stay in our home. She took care of him and the house. Clean, Responsive, Responsible...I felt very comfortable having her stay and grateful to find her for YellowCat!”
12. Kelly F.
“Kelly took great care of my dogs while I was away. Getting photos and frequent check ins helped me know that they were being loved :) Thanks Kelly!”
13. McKinley K.
“Our German shepherd mix, Atti, LOVES McKinley. She dog sits for us regularly and has a wonderfully positive and patient energy. Her kindness and intuition with pets makes her the first person we ask any time we need a dog sitter. We feel so lucky to have someone we trust so completely to take the best care of Atti. Thanks, McKinley!”
14. Lori L.
“Lori is a wonderful dog sitter! She has watched our shar pei and boxer for over a week at our house. During that time, she kept the house neat and tidy and stayed in communication with us on a regular basis, eliminating the stress of leaving the dogs and house behind. Above all, Lori is trustworthy, and our dogs loved her. Our boxer is extremely needy and Lori was happy to accommodate his needs. Multiple play sessions and time outside. We would highly recommend Lori to anyone looking for a dog sitter. Scott and Jen D Falmouth, Maine”
15. Aphtyn L.
“Thank you so much for doing such a wonderful job!”
16. Bethany W.
“Bethany did a great job with my dogs and my house looked great when I got home. One reason I chose her on Rover was she said she worked from home. Since I'm retired, my dogs are used to having someone around a lot during the day. Unfortunately, her schedule changed and she had to go in to work. I wish we had had an opportunity to sit down and talk about that. But, overall, everything was fine. Dogs healthy and happy when I got home.”
17. Ella-Rose B.
“Ella is a superstar! She is so caring and kind with all animals. I am so appreciative of her taking care of my dogs and I feel confident knowing they are very well cared for. Ella offers great advice and is very supportive of pet parents. She can administer medications if my pets need it too! My dogs are always so excited to see her and she always takes the time to greet each one individually and learn their quirks and needs. Go to Ella for quality tailored pet care so she can love up on your furry friends too!”
18. Daniel W.
“Daniel stayed at our home for 4 days and took excellent care of our girl Chloe and the house itself. His relaxed nature is perfect for our dog and he was extremely conscientious, checking in with us now and then to let us know that things were going well and leaving our dog happy and our home in excellent condition. His communication was prompt and clear. Definitely a 5 star experience.”
19. Maddie M.
“Maddie was great! She communicated well about her stay and did a few extra things for me to help me be able to leave for my vacation with no stress! I will definitely use her again!”
20. sarah v.
“Sarah is the best dog walker we’ve had! Our dog can be iffy with new people and we weren’t sure how he’d do with someone new coming in when we weren’t home. Sarah was great with him and he loves her so much now! Highly recommend Sarah for your future dog walking/sitting needs!!”
