“Marvel is great, we’re now repeat customers thanks to his communication and reliability. We will book again and would recommend his services to others as well. Thank you!”
“Eileen was really great. This was my first time using rover & she took the time to reach out, go over all the details and make sure she understood Kiki’s needs and I understood all the details about Rover updates and communications. She sent me great pictures and updates and was able to get my kitty to come out of hiding and do her playful thing. Eileen used the full arsenal of toys and treats I left around and even brought some more for Kiki! Would 100% use Eileen again.”
“Bazarkul is the best! She always takes great care of my two older cats and truly goes above and beyond to send me updates and make sure they are happy and well cared for while I’m away.”
“I felt comfortable leaving my 2 cats to be cared for by Alyssa. She was able to drop in prior to the booking to get instructions and communicated well. The cats are very shy - practically feral - but she was still able to snap a photo. I would definitely book with her again.”
“This was our first time using Rover so I didn’t know what to expect but I’m so glad we found Yahnzy!!! She was great with my cats and felt at ease being Away while she watched them. My oldest cat Floyd absolutely LOVED her. My little one is a bit skittish but he eventually came around lol. When I got home everything was clean and I didn’t even have to straighten up which was great bc we had a long day of travel. Great experience and I will be using her again the next time we go away for sure!!!!”
“Rachelle is always our first choice for cat sitting! We have 4 cats with varying personalities, energy levels, and desire to socialize, and she makes each of them feel comfortable and safe while we are away. Rachelle is very kind and trustworthy — we especially appreciate the updates and photos she shares with us, which gives us peace of mind that our babies are being well cared for!”
“Shanna did an amazing job caring for my cats while I was away on a much-needed vacation. From our initial meeting, my cats took to her right away, which was such a relief! She was very responsive and shared thoughtful, detailed updates in each Rover card. I genuinely looked forward to reading them after every visit. It was clear she cared for Skylar & Jackson as if they were her own. I was able to feel at ease during my trip because I knew they were in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Nia was great!! 5 stars. After a friend left us high and dry on a holiday, Nina was there whej we needed her for a 12 day trip. She is responsive, sends a lot of pictures, and left our place super clean. She even agreed to water our plants and do a few other things that we requested. We would not hesitate to have her stay in our home again!”

About: I have a deep sense of love for all animals, and make it my utmost priority to make sure that they are comfortable and have a good time. I have experience walking dogs including walking guide dogs. I will give your pet the attention and care they deserve, as well as being sure that they are hydrated, and fed. I typically nap with the dogs, cuddle, give them treats, and take them on many walks. I am a recent college graduate and am working as a dogsitter and walker as I look for full time jobs. Watching or walking your dog will give me peace and comfort during this time. Napping with the pet and making sure that they are comfortable. I will give them ample room to sleep as well as an area to potty during the night if needed.

He was incredibly patient, attentive, and made sure my baby got plenty of exercise and affection. My husky can be high energy and a bit stubborn, but Selassie handled it all with calm confidence and genuine care. My dog came back happy, well-fed, and clearly bonded with him. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was in capable hands. I would absolutely recommend Selassie to anyone looking for a loving and reliable pet caregiver!”
