“Ann does a great job with our cats and our dog and is very flexible. She is very loving to all of them. We have used Ann’s services several times!”
2. Ruben D.
“Ruben was great!! He was on time, very nice, and took good care of my two dogs. This was my first time having a stranger walk my dog who is very reactive and I felt comfortable after meeting Ruben that he was very knowledgeable and could handle it. I would definitely book with him again!”
3. Kim B.
“Having Kim as our caregiver for Dale has been life changing. She has allowed us the ability to travel without worry. I had so much anxiety traveling prior to Kim. I cannot thank her or recommend her enough. Absolutely fantastic!”
4. Annie M.
“Annie did a great job with our very shy cats. This was our first time leaving them and we were really nervous about it. Annie sent pictures every day, making us feel much better. She even watered the plants.”
5. Jessica W.
“Jessica was an excellent sitter to our dog. She was very devoted and attentive. Very concerned about Trista, and gave her some extra time. I would highly recommend Jessica and use her again.”
6. Kelly E.
“Kelly was great! She did what we asked and offered to come ahead of time to do a quick walkthrough before she did her check in to make sure we were on the same page. She communicated wonderfully and our cat loved her. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to check in on their pet.”
7. Jessica K.
“Jessica came and took care of Axel for a drop in visit. We got home 11 hours later and he was calm cool and collected. That made it absolutely worth it. Will ask Jessica to care for Axel again!”
8. Christopher M.
“10/10 recommend! Thank you for all your help Chris!”
9. Briana R.
“Briana is amazing! She’s incredibly prompt with communication & visits and as evident from her visit pics (so cute, thank you!!) my dogs think she’s paw-some too!! I was super nervous about leaving my 2 babies for the first time in a long time (one) and for the first time for extended hours ever (second), but Briana helped make it a breeze so I could focus on work instead! Thank you!!!!”
10. Cassie U.
“Cassie has been such a wonderful caretaker for our cats. She spends quality time with the cats and ensures everything is clean and in order. Cassie goes above and beyond, was very flexible, and was such a big help. The cats absolutely adored her and seemed to really enjoy her company.”
11. Kiari A.
“Did a great job while I was out of the country. Very grateful to Kiari”
12. Emily G.
“We hired her to watch our 2 cats for a vacation. Our family vacation plans went south the morning of our trip when our son had to be hospitalized. Our dog was supposed to come with us, but instead was home a lot. She played with our lab and loved on her the whole week. Emily was so good to our pets. She went above and beyond to care for them. Lots of pictures, feedback on how they were doing, and was compassionate towards us/our pets. We felt reassured while we were taking care of our son, that she was taking good care of our furry family members. Thank you, Emily!”
13. paulina r.
“Paulina is a great cat sitter! She was easy to communicate with and was happy to meet us and our cat before we hired her. She is reliable and gave our cat plenty of attention while we were away. Would absolutely hire her again. Thank you, Paulina!”
14. Abigail D.
“Abigail is AMAZING with pets and animals. She is patient and is capable of handling a variety of breeds and has had years of experience with animals. She has personally pet sit for me both overnight and while I have been at work and as my dog is my best friend, I can say I was VERY picky with who I trusted my Bailey with. Bailey LOVED Abigail and I would HIGHLY recommend her and trust her to anyone looking for a loving person to look after their animals. Lastly-- her experience working at a vet as well as attending veterinary school has expanded her capability and knowledge and makes her the PERFECT pet caregiver!!”
15. Jen H.
“Jen is an incredible pet sitter! She’s been a great friend and neighbor for a few years now. When she told me she was joining Rover I thought it was a perfect fit for her! She does a great job taking care of my Lhasa Apsos, Waldo & Wiggles, who r quite a handful of excited energy and like to barrel through the house bumping into furniture, especially my crafts area … they like to be alert and involved with any activities or noises in and around the neighborhood. Jen has always given them both extra TLC and distracted them from their nerves. I’m her biggest fan! —Mark M., Shrewsbury, MA”
16. Maria R.
“Maria was a blessing when I rescued a puppy. He had some difficulties due to his past and she managed to get him comfortable and happy with her very quickly. She would take him out when I went to work or keep him for the day. I got several pics and videos of how happy my boy was with her each time. She took him to dog parks, on walks, socialized him with people and did soooo much more. She was not scared off one but by his sometimes strange behavior or his lack of trust. Maria is definitely an animal whisperer. I have yet to find someone who could gain his love and trust so promptly”
17. Jacqueline R.
“I have known Jackie for almost 20 years. She’s responsible, mature and caring. She’s had pets, including dogs and cats, her entire life and understands what it takes to care for them. We trusted Jackie with sitting for our dog, Sakari, starting with daytime walks and ending with weeklong stays in our home (alone) with our Sakari. Jackie always took great care of Sakari, and I highly recommend her as a pet sitter/caregiver.”
18. Claire A.
“Claire took the time to play with our cats and give thoughtful updates each day. She was thorough with questions beforehand and during, we would definitely have her as a catsitter again!”
19. Virginia A.
“Virginia is absolutely amazing! She catered to all four of my cats. She adjusted perfectly to our cat’s particular needs. We have one shy cat who will not come out from under the couch for anyone, but Virginia was able to bond with her and give her the attention she needed. We will be using Virginia for all of our future “cat lovin’” needs!”
20. Laura G.
“Laura is a total "dog lady" and by that, I mean there is not a dog on earth that she does not want to be friends with! One of those friends is my American Pitbull Terrier, Maggie. She is a very sweet, but VERY strong and dog reactive dog. I can't let just anyone take care of her, and Laura is on that short list of people who I do trust for the job. Maggie loves her, listens to her, and I know that she is safe and under control with Laura. Not only safe and under control-but loved and spoiled! I would not hesitate to recommend Laura to anyone who is in need of someone that they can trust to take care of and love their dog just as well as they do.”
