As a last-minute first time visit, Amy was so easy to work with. We were able to communicate easily, and I felt so comfortable having her take care of Gino because she was communicating so well with me and this is without having a meet and greet prior. Great first experience!

Marc did a wonderful job taking care of our dog and a cat for a week. Our dog requires medication- Marc was on top of her meds schedule . We came back a little earlier and the house was clean. We had instances with other pet sitters where this was not the case. Both girls are happy and well taken care of. We would trust Marc with them again. Thank you!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for over 20 years and currently have two of my own. I have experience volunteering for animal shelters and can handle meds, clean up, walks, or assistance for special needs animals. I am insured with Pet Sitters Associates. While in my care, your fur babies are my highest priority and I will love them as if they were my own! I’m currently on a sabbatical from work and am available most days during the week. After taking care of my own, I am free for walks and play starting at 8:30am until 6pm. Peace of mind, pet safety, and your pets contentment is my highest priority and I will follow the exact instructions provided by the pet owner.

About: I am currently working as a veterinary technician and have extensive pet sitting experience. I have a dog and 3 cats of my own and would love the opportunity to care for your pets as if they were my own! I can care for all sizes of dogs, cats, and other pets. I'm able to medicate, administer insulin or other injections, or anything medical. I'm very good with scared or unsure pets and have a knack for helping them feel more comfortable. I'm happy to spend time with the pets, walking them, playing with them, or just spending time petting them. I have loved and cared for animals since I was young and am hoping to have the opportunity to care for yours as well! I work from home and can be flexible with drops in and walks. I am also free all weekend! I can do drops ins, walks, overnights or medication administration. I will always make sure to follow your preferred schedule and make sure to take care of all needs you have for your pet! We can walk, play, snuggle, whatever they prefer!

So fortunate to have connected with Brian. He was great with our dog and bonded quickly with him. Brian was responsive and communicated clearly. He asked great questions during the meet and greet. Throughout his care of our dog, he provided detailed updates, photos and pictures. We will absolutely be using him in the future.

5/5 — Another fantastic experience with Yana! Yana once again went above and beyond. She was 100% responsible, sent complete visit summaries, and shared plenty of photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. She cared for our dogs as if they were her own—lots of love, attention, and care for every detail. Our girls absolutely adore her! We trust Yana completely and couldn’t recommend her more highly!

About: With me as your sitter, you can say goodbye to the stress of leaving your dog at home. I have grown up with dogs of all sizes so I am ready to help take care of yours! I currently work full time but remote on Monday, Thursday, and Friday. I would be able to help before or after business hours, as well as on my lunch break i want to provide the upmost care for your dog, so I would ask to be given a detailed background on your dog, their personality/ quirks, and the way you care for them when you’re home to ensure your pet is feeling happy and safe

I was very hesitant to use rover for the first time but Michael was very kind and answered all of my questions. He really took the time to learn about my pups and make sure they were happy while I was away. They warmed up to him quickly and let out their crazy side. I felt like we were in constant contact so I knew my dogs were being well taken care of which really took a weight off my shoulders. He even went above and beyond by sweeping up the dog hair which with a Great Pyrenees at home really builds up fast. I am so happy with how everything went and will definitely be using Michael again in the future. It was truly a great experience and I can’t thank Michael enough he really did and amazing job!!!

Marc was wonderful with our kitties! From the very first meet-and-greet, he was sweet, kind, professional, thoughtful, and respectful, which immediately made us feel comfortable leaving our cats in his care. During each visit, Marc went above and beyond to make sure our kitties were happy, cared for, and loved. He kept us consistently informed with updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that he truly cared about their well-being and took the time to make them feel safe and comfortable. We are so grateful for the care Marc provided and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring cat/dog sitter. Our kitties were in great hands!

Frida was amazing! Our cat is usually not a people person but he was unusually receptive to Frida. She took great care of him and made sure he was well fed, clean and took time to play with him. We felt at ease with Frida in our home which she took great care of. We would be happy to welcome her back for future visits!

Jessica did an excellent job taking care of Bella and Audrey, even during several very cold and snowy days. She was attentive, patient, and thoughtful, and made sure the dogs were safe and comfortable despite the challenging weather conditions. We really appreciated her care, flexibility, and attention to detail, and felt very confident having the girls in her care. Highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.
