“Brittany is a lovely person and I felt very comfortable with her taking care of our cats for the first time. She was very dependable and showed up for the cat visits when promised. She did her best to locate both cats when she visited and sent pictures of our cat Georgie, who looked very happy. I will definitely ask Brittany to watch our cats again.”
“Carol was so lovely to work with! She gave great updates and was very communicative. My fluffy boy was so soft from all the brushes. Thank you for caring for our boys!”
“Karen was wonderful with our kitties. Her daily checkins and photos were so appreciated and we trusted her implicitly. Highly recommend and will seek her out on our next trip. Thank you Karen!”
“Nicole was easy to work with and very accommodating after my lack of planning left us without care for our cat at the end of our 2 week vacation. She worked around my schedule to come meet before we left and gave updates while she was with our Dory.”
“Sarah was amazing with my special needs kitty, little baby No No Pants. He's a one eyed, limited vision in the remaining eye, hearing impaired little gremlin who was recovering from dental surgery when she met us for a meet a greet and ultimately cared for him while I was away for the first time over the Easter holiday. She handled all of his special needs along with his quirks with care and patience. She allowed him to get acquainted on his terms, which meant becoming his personal jungle gym to investigate her head to toe. She followed all of his care instructions wonderfully, sent adorable pictures to keep me posted on how he was doing, and totally put my worries and anxiety at ease while I was away. I came home to a happy well cared for little guy. She's officially No No approved with two paws up for sure!”
“Sarah is wonderful! Very flexible to schedule and meet up with, asked all the right questions, and we felt great about leaving our cats in her care. Despite one of our kitties being rude and territorial to her on the second drop-in visit, Sarah still made sure they had everything they needed, and called us to make sure everything was alright before leaving. Sorry that Gypsy was a big brat, but otherwise, thank you Sarah for your thoughtful care and being there for our cats!”

When it came time to leave for our trip Patricia made sure to send us a whole bunch of pictures of her and Daphne playing and having a good time. Patricia made our first experience using Rover effortless and made us feel comfortable while we enjoyed our weekend. We will be sure to check if Patricia is available next time we book a trip.”

Highly recommend and will definitely be booking with her again!”

This is my first time using Rover. And also my first time using Jenn. She was fantastic! She sent me pictures, she sent me texts, she kept me informed. I loved having her! Hopefully she’ll be available in the future for me.
Ashley did a very nice job taking care of our kitty. We really appreciate her dedication! And she fed our little turtle as well. Thank you, Ashley! I would be happy to recommend her.
Destinee was amazing!! She was super flexible with setting up our meet and greet so that she could meet our dog, Maddie, and all four of my pets were well looked after, and seemed to be super happy!! One thing that really stood out to me during our meet and greet, was that Destinee said she wouldn’t do anything with Maddie that she wouldn’t do with her own dog, and that made me feel super at ease! She has amazing, open communication and sends lots of great pictures that put mine, and my fiancés, mind at ease while we were on vacation. Definitely recommend Destinee if you’re looking for a great, communicative sitter!! Will definitely be reaching out to her again!!
Olga was really amazing. She was so fantastic with my three kitties. Normally timid, two of them immediately came out on the first day with her!! Olga was consistent, warm, friendly, thorough and professional as well as communicative. I can’t recommend her enough!
We’ve rebooked with Lauren any time we are away. She is great with the cats and reliable. We love getting the reports about our cats while we are away, too 😄
Teresa was great. We really appreciated the pictures and the updates. My cats really enjoyed her attention
