Springfield cat parents share their Rover experiences
Stacey is a great sitter. She asked excellent questions to ensure a common understanding of expectations. She was very communicative as events occurred during the visit. They stayed with my cat for the full time frame even when he stayed aloof. Highly recommend.
Our cat Rupert has a complex diet and medicine routine, and Sophia was amazing in making sure he was eating and getting is meds while still keeping him entertained and giving him the love everyone's animals deserve! She communicated with us through our whole time away and let us know he was doing with comments and pictures each day. Sophia is wonderful!
Jennifer did an outstanding job, cats looked very happy in all the pictures that she sent and was very prompt and punctual on all visits. Went the extra mile to send pictures of cats eating treats and being very social and active. Will definitely use Jennifer again.
Ally did a great job taking care of my three kitties for 12 days. The cats and I had just moved into a temporary rental, and with environment being so important to cats, I was concerned about them settling in. Ally was kind enough to do a complimentary meet-and-greet, and the kitties rightly perceived that Ally is a real animal lover. I got the evidence every day in pictures and notes, keeping me in contact with my little ones. NOTE: I had pre-paid a $50 tip, so I would like Ally to perceive the tip that I include here as an additional amount for the excellent work she did.
