We have had 10+ sitters and a ton of visits through rover and Joe was hands down our favorite so far. We had two senior dogs who need a lot of assistance and have a lot of meds to take. Joe came over and met them before hand and was so patient gaining our dogs trust and getting to know them. He brought in our packages that came, took such good care of them and gave so many great updates. He made our long weekend away so good knowing they were in great hands. 10/10 recommend him for going above and beyond :)

Karleen was a wonderfully caring, attentive sitter for my cat Apollo. She included a detailed note at the end of each drop-in about Apollo’s mood, energy levels etc. that was reassuring, funny and overall such a joy to read each night. I could tell from the photos Karleen included in the Rover card that Apollo was happy and at ease around her. 100% would recommend and book again!

I recently had Nupur watch my dog while I was on vacation, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! This was my first time leaving my dog for an extended period, and I was really nervous about it. However, Nupur did an amazing job of easing my anxiety by providing detailed updates after each check-in, along with plenty of pictures, and shared how my dog was doing, which really helped calm my anxiety. It was so comforting to see my dog happy and well-cared-for. Nupur truly went above and beyond to make sure all of my dog's needs were met, and made sure my dog was comfortable and happy. My puppy clearly loved her, and I felt so relieved knowing she was in such caring hands. I’m incredibly grateful for the care Nupur provided, and I will absolutely be booking with her again in the future. Highly recommend Nupur to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

As expected, she goes above and beyond and I never have to worry about my pets when I’m out of town. I didn’t even have to check my phone as she’s timely and treats my pets as her own. You’re amazing Esmeralda! Can’t wait to book you again!

About: I have pet sat for many years for friends and family, but have done it professionally for about 3 years now. I work under a professional pet sitting company and am using Rover to fill my schedule. I work my full time job Sunday-Thursday 8 am-3:30/4:00 pm. When im not at work I am often pet sitting! When I pet sit I never leave for more than 4 hours at a time unless it is for work, and you will know ahead of time. I am willing to do drop ons on my lunch break, so long as I can do it and return by the time my lunch break is over. Usually depends on distance. My hours at work are somewhat flexible and I can occasionally finish out the day at home if needed. I do my best to make sure that the pet's usual routine is kept and I follow instructions to a tee. I keep the environment calm and welcoming so pets can warm up to me on their own time. I am a snuggle bug and am happy for pets to sleep in a bed with me--whatever makes them the most comfortable.

Emily was great! She made time to come by and see our cat prior to our trip which was nice since this was our first time using a cat sitter. It definitely put our minds at ease. Her drop-in reports with pictures were fun to get and she communicated when she was going to do a drop-in a little late due to bad weather. We would definitely use her again!

Alejandra did a wonderful job with my girl! She did 30 minute drop in visits on my cat for 4 days while I was on vacation. She did an excellent job each time giving her treats, food, water and scooping her litter box. She spent time giving my girl lots of pets and scratches and love. We had a great meet and greet and she followed all my instructions carefully. I appreciated her excellent communication and she sent me several pictures from each day’s visit. She took great care of and attention to my girl. Highly recommend and will book her again in the future!

Heaven did an amazing job keeping my cat Kali company while I was gone! I was nervous about leaving her for a couple of days, but Heaven kept me updated whenever she checked on her, which gave me the reassurance I needed. She was also flexible with dropping off the keys to my place once I got back. I highly recommend her, she obviously cares a lot about animals!

Olivia is so great with our boys and our home! Our standoffish cats both come out to see her every time she visits. She is very communicative with us about how they’re doing and takes initiative with things like vacuuming litter and washing their food bowls. We never have to worry about our boys when we are on trips because we know she takes such excellent care of them.
