“Jessica was fantastic with providing clear communication, including updates, photos, and how our pupper was doing! Very pleasant experience and would recommend/have again in the future.”
“Thank you so much for checking in our girl! You were great…reliable, attentive, and sweet! I’m sure Biscotti loved meeting a new friend :) We appreciate it!”
“Elizabeth is so great with my dog! She is very responsive, friendly, and I knew he was in good hands. Will definitely be reaching out again in the future :)”
“Lila was awesome! She paid attention to detail and followed our requests to a tee. She was gentle with our cat & was a great communicator. Would def schedule again!”
“Felicia was awesome! We just needed someone to watch our cat while we were away for a few days. She was super communicative and great with our elderly, persnickety cat! She stopped by two times daily, and took lots of photos and kept me up to date with every little detail. Highly recommended! Thank you, Felicia! :)”
“This was our first time having Jeffrey do drop ins for our three wild kids and he was AMAZING! Great communication, super professional, loved on our doggos just like we would!”
“Mallory went above and beyond for our senior bunny. She obviously knows her way around small animals and was very understanding of his grouchy temperament with a new person in his space. She got him to warm up to her in just a few visits and she did extra cleaning around the house that was not required. We loved coming home to a clean home and a happy bunny”
“Excellent visits! Great communication, sent lots of photos and very interactive with our cats. Flexible with providing care and changing up day to day routine. Absolutely perfect pet sitting experience!”
“Chloe was great with our 7month old lab. He’s a good dog but definitely has puppy tendencies and she did well with his overall exciteability and energy level. Would definitely trust her with our fur baby again.”
“Kristen is a gem of a person and so attentive to our dog, Skye. She sends lots of updates and pictures and is also very funny. She is great to work with and I totally trust her with our furbaby.”
“Elijah was wonderful with my shy and aging cat who he administered insulin to over the course of several days. I was nervous to leave her for the first time since she got diagnosed with diabetes but Elijah gave lots of updates and took great care of our cat. Would definitely hire again.”
“Harlee took great care of my two cats when I was out of town for a long weekend. She sent me cute pics of them and I loved to see them so comfortable with her right off the bat. Would definitely rebook!”
About: I may not have a lot of pet experience but when I love something, I do it 110% I work full time in mental health /substance use and as you can imagine, my day to day is extremely stressful and I talk to rude people with a smile on my face. But around animals, it’s a real smile. They love us so unconditionally and do so much for us, how can you not give your pet the world and them some after that? All I want to do is make sure every animal feels love, safe and happy. I work 4, 10 hour days a week and 3 days off. I can easily squeeze in multiple drop ins, walks, and house sitting on my days off which are Wednesday, Thursday, and Fridays. Even a small overnight could be possible. I also work from home often. Sundays are my guaranteed work from home day so I can find drop in or walk times. As well as house sitting on Sundays! Saturdays, I’m off earlier, clock out by 6:30, so I can definitely squeeze in a night drop in or 2. Monday’s and Tuesdays are my “in office all day” days so I wouldn’t be able to do anything those 2 days, but every other day, I can work something out no problem! I try my best to not break their routine. I have a pretty good understanding of animal body language and I can tell when they are stressed or overwhelmed. Me being a stranger to them, can already have them slightly stressed. So the best thing I can do for them is to continue doing what they already know.
“Violet loves Jora!!! I think she may even like her more than me. 😂 It’s apparent that Jora is an animal lover through and though, she immediately bonded with Violet and was super communicative through the whole process. I won’t be leaving my dog with anyone else from now on, Jora is the best of the best and I’m sure your fur children will love her just as much as Violet did 😍”
“Abigail was great with our cat while we were gone for a week. She communicates well and is very thorough in her check in notes. And she takes great pictures! We would book with Abigail again with confidence!”

Stadium pet parents share their Rover experiences
Abigail was stellar as always! We are always so happy when she can come in to check on our two cats! She always spends time getting them to play (or to at least make an appearance). She's flexible, friendly, dependable, and we highly recommend her as a kitty checker-inner.
Cat has been an absolute pleasure to work with! I scheduled her last minute for daily drop-in services with my dog, Koko. Even though it was a short turnaround time (I made the request Saturday morning for services starting on Monday), Cat came to our house that same day to meet Koko and discuss what I was looking for in drop-in services. Over the past week, Cat has been an excellent communicator, has consistently arrived on time, and has really catered her care to Koko's preferences (e.g., playing ball with her in our yard, convincing her to eat something at lunchtime even though she's picky). I have already booked another drop-in session with Cat for next week and will certainly continue to work with her in the future! I highly recommend working with Cat!
Emily was amazing! She was very communicative and FaceTimed with us before we left to make us comfortable. She sent us great pictures and was able to get our very shy cat to love her. Highly recommend if you want someone to care about your cats like they are their own!
Brenna did an amazing job of checking in on my cat T. Rex while I was out of town! She was a great communicator and super flexible with my traveling times. I would 100% recommend her to other pet owners and am sure I will reach back out next time I need a drop-in again!!
Katharine was wondering!!!! She went above and beyond her task. She even accommodated me adding a couple of days last minute. She was very caring and I can tell that my dog really likes her. I was able to have totally peace of mind on my trip. I definitely recommend Katharine and rebook her.
