“This was such a great process and caretaker. Ynes provided photos, came at the scheduled times, and did sweet things outside of the standard, such as asking for a jacket for my chihuahua because it was raining. Highly recommend.”

“Nandini took great care of our pup while we were out of town for five days- kept us updated and is a strong communicator! Would definitely book again and recommend her to friends and family!”

“Mateo was so kind and attentive to my cat while I was away. I really appreciated that he was able to step in on short notice!! He’s a fantastic pet caregiver—reliable, compassionate, very communicative. I highly recommend Mateo, your pet will be in excellent hands!”

“Darius was very thorough. Constantly kept me updated with photos and videos. Took some of the best photos I’ve seen of my dog. Very professional. I didn’t worry much at all. Definitely appreciative of his time and care!”

“Both times I’ve booked with Heaven have been relatively last minute, so I’m appreciative of that in itself. She’s so kind! She handles my pup with so much care! I hope I won’t have to book anyone else ever. 🤍”

“I truly appreciated Bailee stepping up at the last minute to watch my little guy! I had zero issues with communication and I know Rebel received great care. Will book again!”

“Olivia was efficient, excellent at following directions, and very reliable! My cat loved her! I would not hesitate to recommend or rely on her services again. Thank you Olivia!”

“Sarah was attentive, trustworthy, and kind! Leaving your fur babies for a trip is never easy, but I knew mine were in good hands. Sarah gave great updates each time she dropped in for a visit. Will definitely be booking her services again!”

About: I took care of an American Bully for over 2 years and even though she wasn’t mine, she was my baby!! I will make sure that your baby is well taken care of! :) I’m a student at Rice University! I’m always available during winter breaks; perfect for if you take a vacation and need someone to watch your pets! During the school year, it also wouldn’t be a hassle for me to have drop-ins or live at the house if it’s not too far from Rice. I do have 2 cats at home. I can care for cats in my home and in others. But I can only care for dogs at others homes.
“Allison was fantastic with my two cats! She handled everything with care, including giving one of my cats her shot without any issues. The visit notes were detailed and thoughtful, which gave me great peace of mind. Highly recommend!”

“Could not be happier with Natalie as a pet sitter! She is communicative and super reliable. I came home to happy pets, and I felt such relief not having to worry about them while I was gone. I will absolutely be booking with her again!”

“Nupur did an excellent job dropping in on our two cats. Our two cats are still being introduced and don’t yet get along and she cared for each the week we were away. She carefully followed our instructions and shared updates and pictures. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our kitties were in great dependable hands.”

“I have booked Ismael around 4 or 5 times till now for my kitties and each time he has gone above and beyond to take care of them. I cannot recommend him enough for your pets' care and needs!”

“Christine was great, very attentive and friendly. She was very thoughtful about the questions she had regarding care for my dog and I felt very comfortable with him in her care. Will definitely be using her services again.”


“Karleen was a wonderfully caring, attentive sitter for my cat Apollo. She included a detailed note at the end of each drop-in about Apollo’s mood, energy levels etc. that was reassuring, funny and overall such a joy to read each night. I could tell from the photos Karleen included in the Rover card that Apollo was happy and at ease around her. 100% would recommend and book again!”

Sama was fantastic at caring for our cat while we were on a trip. In addition to being super reliable with regular caretaking tasks, she was able to make our cat comfortable by adjusting to his needs and behaviors. Our cat is usually wary and slow to adjusting to new people, but during the trip was able to engage in active play and express normal personality traits due to the level of comfort. We recommend Sama!

Ever since I’ve used rover, Ellie has been my go to sitter! Trust worthy, plays with my animals and even lets my cats outside on the patio so they can get their sun time. She’s responsible and has great communication. Just got back from my recent trip and she even vacuumed my apartment without me asking! What a great way to come home. Thanks Ellie!

Hannah was so great watching our cat, Bubbies! She was great at communicating how he was doing each day and sharing pictures. Our cat had some recent health scares so I was nervous to leave him but Hannah total set me at ease. Definitely would rebook with Hannah!

Gabby was a semi-last minute booking and she really pulled through and showed up. She kept my two cats happy and socialized. Gabby went the extra mile returning keys and communicated openly. I would recommend her service if you want someone friendly, willing, and flexible.

This was our first time booking with Rachel, and we will absolutely book her again! We reached out last minute when our regular sitter had a family emergency and had to leave town. She responded almost immediately, and was very open and receptive. We worked out the basic details quickly, and she came for a meet-and-greet within a couple days. While we were gone, she was amazing! She sent plenty of photos, gave our kitties plenty of love, and left detailed updates about what she did and how they were doing. And they loved her! I have nothing but good things to say about Rachel and how she cared for our little ones.

Emily was great! She made time to come by and see our cat prior to our trip which was nice since this was our first time using a cat sitter. It definitely put our minds at ease. Her drop-in reports with pictures were fun to get and she communicated when she was going to do a drop-in a little late due to bad weather. We would definitely use her again!
