1. Courtney G.
“Courtney has been super helpful for me on 2 separate occasions. She does a really great job of spending time with my kitty and allowing me not to worry when I’m away. 10/10 would book again!”
2. Robert M.
“Robert has my highest recommendation! He checked on my 3 cats for 2 weeks while I was away and did a wonderful job, even going above and beyond. He made sure they were taken care of and sent me humorous updates every day. The communication was great, asked questions if needed and let me know anything going on with the house or cats, or any change in plans. He also brought in my mail, took out my trash, and I think left the house even cleaner than I left it. I am extremely grateful for all he did while I was away to be able to trust that my babies were in good hands - awesome cat sitter!!”
3. Gabrielle W.
“I wish I could leave 6/5 stars. Thank you so much Gabrielle!!! You saved us when we needed last minute help! We will probably never find someone more trustworthy and caring as you!❤️”
4. Kelly J.
“Kelly has been an absolute blessing. She has helped me give injections to my cat over the past six weeks. She is incredibly kind, often brining a treat for Ciri, and helping me to keep my sanity by calming a very anxious kitty.”
5. Rebecca G.
“Rebecca was absolutely amazing with my two pups! She did drop in visits throughout the day and was super patient with my 10 month old puppy. She treats other peoples pets as if they were her own, with such kindness and care. She was also super flexible if I needed to adjust the hours, which was such a lifesaver with my military work schedule being so unpredictable at times. If I ever need someone to watch my babies, she’ll be the first one I call :)”
6. Lindsey H.
“Lindsey was professional and did everything that was asked of her during her visit. Giving oral medication to a cat is not always easy, so it is nice to have a pet sitter who is capable of doing that. Her experience as a Vet Technician is a real plus!”
7. Jennifer M.
“Jennifer was great with the dogs! They really liked her, and I received pupdates after every visit. Definitely will be using her for petsitting in the future!”
8. Falynn R.
“Falynn did a great job with my dog. Kept me updated and my little girl was so happy to have a friend visit with her. Would recommend her anytime.”
9. Alana M.
“Loved the pictures!! She took such good care of Goose! Very attentive and loving!”
10. Stacy M.
“I was told of Rover.com from a co-worker who had used your service, but I was a little apprehensive going on to the Rover.com website because I did not know what to expect but quickly realized there were folks (sitters) I knew, and that eased my mind. I like how you set it up the meet-and-greet to see if the sitter and dog(s) match. While I was on vacation, I had peace of mind that my babies were in good hands. I do greatly appreciate Stacy and her calm demeanor with my Ammo, who is a little protective of me, but she took to Stacy, and all was well. Thank you all for the service you provide and for Stacy who did an outstanding job ensuring my little ones were good each day. A believer of Rover.com Josué”
11. Violet V.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs ever since I got my Stella in 2020. Shortly after, I also got Charlie, and they are my everything. I love to take them on walks, to the dog park, and treat them to pup-cups. On occasion, I have also helped out with babysitting puppies and dogs for family friends. I love any dogs, big or small. I’m currently a full time student at USC-Sumter with a part-time job outside of Rover, but I can still make plenty of time to play with your pups! If I can make time for my dogs, it’s no problem with yours. I have a fenced yard and two dogs who love to make new furry friends. I can easily help your dog feel welcomed in my home or make them more comfortable with me being in yours.
12. Dori B.
“Dori is excellent with animals. She is very loving and attentive and takes exceptional care of them. We have a dog and a cat that she adores. She will go above and beyond to make sure your pets are well taken care of!”
13. Ariel C.
“Ariel was really great with my cats. She played with the kittens and made sure to love on my older cat too. She sent pictures and reports after each visit so I knew how everyone was doing, which gave me great peace of mind. Thanks, Ariel!”
14. Angela V.
“Amazing. Responsive and very easy to work with!!! I need this service quite a bit so now that she and Brady are aquatinted this will work perfectly.”
15. Marisa J.
“Marisa did an absolutely amazing job watching my fur baby. She was able to help me out last minute for my weekend trip away from home and I can tell she put forth an outstanding effort to really care for my baby. 10s 10s 10s across the board, I will definitely be booking her again 🙏🏾.”
16. Bethany H.
About: I have had cats and dogs since I was 10. I have been pet sitting for 10 years. I would love to help out with your pets. My schedule is very flexible, so I am available most weekends and on weekdays. I can check on pets in the morning, afternoon, and in the evening. I have three cats with different personalities. I have a cat that loves affection and another one that prefers to be left alone. The client can let me know their pets personality, so I will know if they would like me to play with the cat/dog or leave him/her alone.
17. Helen C.
“Helen took such amazing care of my little girl, Fiona! I was in a crunch to find someone to drop in and Helen really saved the day and spoiled my girl with so much love and attention while I was gone. I think Fiona loves Helen more than she loves me now! So far she’s been Fiona’s favorite sitter and I’m very excited to book with her again soon.”
18. Vanessa C.
“Vanessa was phenomenal and extremely flexible. First interaction, you know this is her passion. She takes the extra steps to ensure you puppers are given the best care. 10/10 would recommend and will rebooked again in the future.”
19. Kristin U.
About: I’ve had my own 3 dogs for the last 6 years. Before that, I would take care of my friends animals. I often dog sit and cat sit for close friends and family. Figured I would do it on here, too! I have trained all of my dogs, nothing crazy. Just the basics. One of my dogs does have health issues and another has really bad allergies so I definitely know what it’s like to have a certain routine per animal. All my animals needs are different and I’m here to provide that to lessen your stress ☺️ All day, all night!!! I am also able to travel. I drive a lot so I don’t mind if I have to travel a bit. I would love for the pet owners to give me a run down no matter what! Even if your animal is low maintenance. My dogs are high maintenance so I’m also used to that. I just like specific instructions, I feel it makes it easier for everyone involved! Especially if I’m pet sitting in your home. That’s your safe space.
20. Kylie E.
“Kylie was very reliable! She was able to add an extra visit on short notice. She even brought in a package that was on our doorstep. Our pups liked her too!”
