1. Sophie K.
“Sophie was amazing!! My cats are shy and scared around strangers and go into hiding, but Sophie was patient and coaxed them out (with a judicious application of treats). They did great under Sophie's care, thank you!”
2. Laura Jean F.
“Laura was amazing! She kept me updated each day with pictures and even trimmed my cat’s nails while I was away! Every aspect of my cat’s needs/care was communicated very clearly before my trip. If you have cat’s and are planning on going out of town I can’t recommend her enough!”
3. Lindsay P.
“Lindsay is amazing! Her and her daughter help get my pup’s zoomies out and take care of her like she’s their own dog. I will continue to book with her to watch Lily!”
4. Molly C.
“Molly was so so sweet and patient with my two cats. I had her stop in for 5 days while I was on vacation and I could tell from the photos, they really enjoyed her presence and felt cared for. Molly stayed for longer than was needed and also brought my kitties a cat toy they love🥹. I don’t have enough good things to say about her care for my babies. This was my first time ever using Rover and Molly made my experience 110% exceed my expectations. I will be re-booking with her in the future. Thank you so much Molly! ❤️”
5. Abbie F.
“Abbie looked after my cat while I was away for the week. They send many videos and photos, keeping me well informed about my cat. Thanks again!”
6. Rachel F.
“We were so lucky to have Rachel to look after our cats while we were on vacation. She followed the feeding and caretaking instructions that I left for her perfectly despite our cats being especially shy and difficult. When one of our cats was hiding one night, she even spent a considerable amount of time looking in every nook and cranny I could think of trying to find her just to put my mind at ease. It's easy to tell that she really cares about animals and I felt so much better knowing that she was there looking after them.”
7. Drew G.
“Drew was great!! Billy Jean (cat) is extremely social and we could tell that she enjoyed her drop in visits and freshly scooped litter box. We received pictures and reports after each visit (which was wonderful) and he was even kind enough to bring in a package that came while we were out. We look forward to booking him again in the future!”
8. Kelsey F.
“Kelsey did an amazing job!! Was very responsive to my little dudes’ needs and let me know if anything seemed off. Was also very responsive to communication and flexible with logistics around handing off house keys, etc. and is generally just really cool, nice and professional! Would highly recommend 🥳”
9. Katie S.
“Katie was great with Georgie. She is a people-shy cat, and I was worried about her being alone for a few weeks. It took a little time, but Katie got her to come out for scratches and pets.”
10. Josephine B.
“Josie meets every expectation we could have for our first time "Drop-in" Daily caretaker of our two big boy cats, Jondular and Tonga. This is the first time we have used Rover and we are thrilled with the outcome. Before we always took our cats in carriers to places where they sat in cages and they were very unhappy so we were unhappy too. When we discovered Rover we were so relieved. Josie has had plenty of experience with cats and was top notch all the way! Thank you Josie and we will be asking you back next time which may be soon.”
11. Jill R.
“Jill did an amazing job caring for our two cats and keeping us updated daily with photos and texts. I would not hesitate to use her again or recommend her to others!”
12. Danielle J.
“Danielle was attentive, always in contact, and did her due diligence in dealing with my reactive dog. I could not have asked for a better sitter while I was gone for family reasons. If she’d be willing I’d definitely book her again!”
13. Angela J.
“Angela was great! She is very experienced and very comfortable with any and all instructions I gave! She took great care of my cats, and I never worried about them while I was gone!”
14. Stephanie F.
“Stephanie is a fantastic sitter!! From the first time our cat Nora met her, it was love. Nora has been hesitant to welcome guests at times, but not Stephanie. Nora sniffed her face and proceeded to love on Stephanie like they were long lost pals. Based on pictures Stephanie sent when here for visits, Nora’s love and comfort continued! We too were comfortable and confident in Stephanie taking care of Nora. Her daily reports are thorough and everything went well while we were gone. I will certainly have Stephanie take care of Nora again!!”
15. Victoria F.
“I was so happy to have Victoria as my cat sitter. I was nervous leaving my two kitties behind but she made me feel much more secure about it. She saw them exactly on schedule, made sure she visualized and interacted with them, and of course I got pictures. She was great.”
16. Laura G.
“Archer is always so happy to see Laura. I’m happy too. I know he will walked, loved, safe, engaged and well cared for when he is with Laura. We have even used her on weekends when we have been out of town. Laura is trust worthy, prompt and professional. Five stars for the care she gives. You can’t go wrong picking Laura to help with your fur baby.”
17. Paige H.
“I highly recommend Paige. Upon our return our home smelt normal and Sasha’s litter was clean. Paige was able to administer meds to her which was no easy feat. We will keep booking her if she is available.”
18. Hannah S.
“She played with the cats daily. Great job, great communication.”
19. Dave K.
About: Hi! I would love to watch or walk your pet. I grew up with two dogs and two cats, so I understand the in and outs of pet care. I also have experience pet-sitting both dogs and cats outside of my own. I don’t have currently pets but cannot wait to get a dog of my own in the near future! I enjoy the amity (and oxytocin) that pets provide. I also understand the importance of customer service, and that your pet-preferences come first. I work a very flexible schedule. My job is full time but I work from home more often than not. I work across the street from where I live, so in events where I do have to be in the office, the commute home is only a 2 minute walk. I am malleable! Whatever your pet needs are, I can adapt. I live 2 blocks away from a park (Mears Park) and a 5 minute drive from an even bigger park (Harriet Island) so plenty of opportunity for exercise and/or playtime.

“Mary Louise was great with my dog. He's high energy and she has experience with dogs like mine. She communicated well and sent me an abundance of pics. Thank you!”
