“Claudia was amazing! She sent us detailed checklists after each visit and lots of cute videos! Our cat loved her right away which tells us everything we need to know 😊 We will definitely be reaching out to Claudia again the next time we need a cat sitter!”


3. Yiqing Y.

“Yiqing was great to work with. She came over ahead of time to get oriented with my place. She was very responsive,a proactive communication, and did a great job taking care of my cats. She played with them every day and kept my place quite clean. Will definitely be using her again!”


4. Amie C.

“Our Dog loves Aime! She is very reliable and communicative. She's walked our pup a couple times a week and we are so happy to have found her. She is kind, loving and takes extra good care of Manti Carlo.”


5. Spencer W.

“We had a wonderful 9 day vacation because Spencer was able to pet sit our needy cat Lexi and gave her lots of attention and care during our absence. Lexi came to our home recently and was still adjusting to the new environment, so we were very nervous how she would react when we were not home. Spencer dropped by our place twice a day to ensure Lexi's daily needs were taken care of. I had a very detailed care sheet for Spencer and he followed the instructions perfectly. We received daily updates and numerous pictures from Spencer so we got the peace of mind that Lexi was well taken care of. More importantly, I could tell Lexi enjoyed his company based on how they interacted. Spencer was super easy to work with and we will request his service again for our cat when we are out of town.”


6. Tzu-Wei T.

“Vicki is excellent and did a wonderful job taking care of our kittens. She also took amazing photos of them! We will definitely re-book with her in the future.”


7. Jonathan G.
“Jonathan takes great care of my dog. Very punctual, responsible and caring. I have trusted him to take care of my dog for multiple days when I go on trips and my dog absolutely loves him.”


8. Thaina B.

“As always, Thaina was super helpful! Our cats are so calm even after us traveling for 2 weeks. Also great attention to details. Highly recommend. Thank you so much!”


9. Casey C.
“Casey has been an animal lover and rescue advocate for his entire life. He focuses on professionalism as well as affectionate and compassionate care. He treats every pet like his own and cares for their unique needs and personalities and the manner that their fur parents see fit. He's cared for my German Short Hair (in her many states of mania) and it was a marvel to see her calm down in his presence. Animals just feel safe with him! An added bonus - Casey is adaptable to work and vacation schedules, and can absolutely be trusted with the security of your pet AND your home. Five Stars :)”


10. Catherine D.

“Catherine was amazing! She took care of our needy dog and was great at communicating. We’re so grateful for all of her help.”


11. Emmily C.
About: I've taken care of close friends and family dogs since 2020! I've taken care of them for just a weekend, but also for long vacations. I personally own a cat, but I also love dogs, since my family has a lot of them! I'm currently in college, so I’m pretty flexible with my timing during the weekdays. I am available on weekends too just need to schedule ahead of time! I am always willing to drive wherever is needed since I own a car. I am always willing to meet your pets need, as I have experience giving pets medicine as well!


12. Rachel M.

“Rachel was a great cat-sitter! She watched Lily while we were on vacation, and eventually got our scary-cat to come out of her shell. Rachel took very good care of our cat, and even took care of the houseplants. I will definitely hire her the next time we go on a trip!”


13. Susan C.

“I have boarded my maltipoo, Tofu, with Susan every time I have had to fly out of town. She is very good about giving updates on how he is doing and sends me pictures everyday. One time she let me know he seemed to have an upset stomach (probably because I gave him some of my lunch oops) and that she would be feeding him chicken and rice until he felt better - with my approval of course. Every time I go to pick Tofu up he is the happiest he’s ever been! Highly recommend her!”


14. Michael B.
“Michael is amazing ! He consistently goes above and beyond to ensure my dog has a fun and safe walk every time. My puppy, Teddy, needs extra walks for weight loss and practice being on leash so this has been a great arrangement. Michael is flexible and a great communicator. Teddy gets excited to spend time with Michael and is well exercised after the walks. I look forward to daily updates and pictures of him. Highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog walker!”


15. Zuleirys S.


“Zuly was my first experience using Rover. Teddy is a new puppy, so I was very nervous about leaving her... but Zuly's sweet and positive personality made me feel comfortable. She showed up on time to her meet and greet, was very personable and gentle with Teddy (who I could tell loved her from the beginning), and was very kind and patient about all the very specific instructions I had. She was very quick to respond to any messages I sent, and took very nice photos while she played with Teddy. My house was exactly the way I left it. I would definitely trust Zuly to look after Teddy again. Thank you so much Zuly!”


16. Alexander L.

“Alexander is the best dog sitter we have ever had. He’s trustworthy, on time and of course loves dogs ;)”


17. Michelle D.

“Michelle took good care of our cat while we were away. She was very easy to communicate with, on time, and cleaned up nicely. We will be using her services in the future for sure. Thanks Michelle !”




18. Courtney F.

“Courtney was awesome, quick response time, shared a pic during her visit, provided good company to my cat when I had to go out of town for the weekend. Highly recommended!”


19. Diana & Michael G.

“Diana and Michael were so kind and professional. I felt extremely safe leaving Reptar in their hands. He requires a wagon and to be lifted, so not for everyone, but Michael was able to assist my big/little guy and get him out while I was out of town for the day. Thank you so much for being so kind and sweet to my guy.”


20. Olivia K.

“Olivia was amazing with my two kitties. She is very communicative and patient with all my questions. She came by for a meet and greet and dropped off my key afterwords in a timely manner. She sent me many photos for each check in, and left a very detailed description for her updates. I highly recommend Olivia she’s very personable and loves animals. Thank you Olivia!”
