1. Kilie A.
“Kilie was awesome! She showed up on time for every feeding, gave our kitties some love and attention and made sure they were well taken care of. We’ve never left our cats in the care of anyone other than family so we were a little nervous about how it would go, but Kilie was so good that we now feel free to travel as long as we can book her.”
2. Jennah M.
“Jennah is great! Very good with our crazy puppy. She even works on some training with him. Our puppy is very excited to have weekly visits from Jennah.”
3. Margaret P.
“Margaret did a wonderful job with our cat Ghost! It was our first time using Rover and we were nervous but she was so thorough. She came to meet us and Ghost for a meet and greet to start. She administered our cat’s oral medication and fed her twice a day. She is very kind, considerate and timely! Easy to communicate and we liked getting updates and photos twice a day. We can tell our cat really appreciated her attention and care. Will be happy to work with Margaret again!”
4. Jamie E.
“We recently moved and were nervous about leaving our cat and bearded dragon but Jamie did a great job of keeping us updated and sending pics. Traveling can be stressful as is and she gave us peace of mind that our babies were well taken care of. Will definitely book with her again :)”
5. Alison & Robert K.
“Alison and Robert are dream pet sitters. They were kind enough to drop in on my cat during a recent trip (and my first time using Rover). They went above and beyond throughout the visit to spend time with her and to write daily updates that shared how she was doing and her level of interaction. Highly recommend if you are looking for pet carers during your travels!”
6. Darian H.
“Darian has been nothing but amazing with my pets! I have a 7 year old golden retriever, who is highly active. And I also have a 1 year old cat. She goes above and beyond with both, but especially my dog because she’s so energetic and needy. She takes her for walks, brings her to the park and plays fetch. It’s comforting that she provides photos and updates while they’re together. She also feeds my dog and makes sure to give her the supplements she needs at the right feeding times. It makes me feel at ease when she’s taking care of my animals because I know they’re in the best hands! Highly recommend Darian to everyone!”
7. Amber M.
“Best sitter you could ask for in the area! Responsive and will treat your pets like her own. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will take care of their babies with the most love and attention as possible!”
8. Claire W.
About: I’ve taken care of pets of all kinds for the last 15 years, and began working with dogs 4 years ago when I raised and trained my own. Since getting a dog I have cared for and pet sat for many of my family friend’s and neighbor’s dogs and cats. I know how to handle medically complex pets and how to properly administer medications. I will love and care for your pets as if they were my own and ensure that they are happy and healthy whenever they are in my care! I am in my first semester of grad school and currently have a very easy schedule, so I have lots of time to care for your pets! I’m available in the mornings from 6-11 and in the afternoons most days from 4 pm onwards. I have a very friendly and well-trained dog that can help accompany your pup on walks and influence their calm with hers (she only accompanies me on walks when requested). I will ensure that your pet has a fun and safe time, getting to go out for a walk or potty/play break.
9. Rachel Z.
“Rachel has loved and cared for all animals her entire life! She grew up in and around pet loving households and is a very caring, honest and responsible young woman. I think she would do well in any career that dealt with pet care and would be a great pet sitter!”
10. Cammie M.
“Excellent all around! Good daily updates, great silly pictures, and my boys were well taken care of.”
11. Amanda L.
“Amanda was awesome & took good care of my bunny Scottie! She was very thoughtful in updating me and I could tell my Scottie had come to trust her over the week of her drop in visits.”
12. Hannah M.
“Hannah was great! Communicated with me well. The dogs seemed very happy in the photos she sent and when I got home from work. Will definitely rebook”
13. Jimmy S.
“My dog, Bailey loves it when Jimmy Shah comes to feed and walk her! Bailey can be a challenge for non-family members because she is a blind older dog (15 years old) but Jimmy handles her with care and respect.”
14. August S.
“August has been great with our dogs and cats. We have one dog that is a little nervous around new people but August handled it perfectly and put Pippa right at ease. Excellent communication and dependable.”
15. Rachel L.
“Rachel was very kind and attentive to my dog & I felt very comfortable having her check-in on him from the first day they met. She was always been very prompt and reliable.”
16. Kaleigh J.
“Kal took excellent care of our cat Oliver while we were out of town. They were extremely prompt with visits and communications, sent us lots of pictures and updates, and even accommodated an extra visit when our flight home was cancelled. They went above and beyond in caring for Oliver, and he was completely comfortable with them. We highly recommend Kal and will be requesting their cat sitting help again!”
17. Luis W.
“Luis was a great help for us during the holiday season. His notes showed a lot of dedication and care for our dog. He took care of our dog during a recovery period after a stomach issue. Luis was careful to take care of correct time for the medicine and took our dog to long walks. Super recommended!”
18. Alyssa P.
“I highly recommend Alyssa. She has been so amazing for Bailey during my school year work schedule and is super reliable! Thanks so much Alyssa!!”
19. Nicholas M.
“Nicholas went above and beyond in taking care of my cat! He sent me friendly messages every day along with the photos and it was clear he really cared.”
20. Shelby S.
“This was our first time using Shelby. She came out to our home for a meet/greet. She was very friendly and her love for animals was very apparent. She did an awesome job with two scheduled drop- ins with our 2 cats! She updated us daily and sent pictures to us!! We felt very comfortable with her in our house and are looking forward to hiring her again! thank you Shelby”
