6. Stacey S.
“Stacey got the job done and was attentive with my cat. She went above and beyond. We didn't realize her vet would be closed the day before Thanksgiving and we were unable to get a refill on her prescription that she takes twice a day. Stacey called the vet the day after Thanksgiving and picked it up for us. She really came through in a pinch and we felt great that she was the one caring for our gal. We highly recommend her”
7. Jeweliana W.
“Jeweliana is professional, communicative, and courteous. She was patient with my shy cats and allowed them time to warm up and get comfortable with her. Both my home and my animals were very well taken care of while I was away.”
8. Shana S.
About: I’ve had my 3 fur babies since they were all 6-8 months old. 2 chihuahua mixes now 14 years old and 1 maltipoo that’s 12 years old! I am a huge pet lover and try to do my part in assisting with keeping them all safe. Currently, I have a full time job that takes precedence. Weekends would work out best for me to pet sit and care for your babies. Caring for you pet in your home would be as simple as me learning their routine. Allowing you to walk me through what works best for them and what you are comfortable with as well as what they are comfortable with. I am definitely okay with having a schedule or a list to follow.

15. Kiersten F.
“Kiersten was my first Rover sitter for my princess Tortie. She was super flexible and understanding given the short notice and accommodated to my apartments security. She went above and beyond with photos and quality time spent with my kitty. I went from having tremendous anxiety leaving my pet and home alone to a stranger to looking forward to her updates with my cat. I would/will 1000% book again.”

I would definitely use her again and would recommend her to anyone!”

My kitties were well taken care of! they stopped by the day that the hurricane was passing near Jacksonville and were willing to bring in my couple of pieces of patio furniture and then place it back out (so the wind didn’t carry them away during the storm.) Highly recommend to others and would absolutely book again.”
