“Chrissy is truly an angel on earth. She stepped in on very short notice to care for our cat, Coconut, after a previous sitter failed to follow our instructions and disrespected our home. Despite being out of state and only having a brief call with her, Chrissy immediately put us at ease with her kind, respectful, and attentive approach. Throughout our vacation, Chrissy provided the most detailed updates along with multiple photos that clearly showed Coconut was in loving, capable hands. Her communication was outstanding, and her genuine care gave us peace of mind during a stressful time. We returned to a happy, healthy kitty—and that is absolutely priceless. Chrissy is the most reliable, thoughtful, and compassionate sitter we’ve ever encountered. We’re already planning our next trip knowing we can fully trust her. We are forever grateful for her professionalism and warmth, and we’d recommend her a billion times over!”
“Wendy communicated great on each visit and was super respectful of our home and even helped out when unexpected packages arrived while we were away. Both boys were well cared for and we looking forward to having Wendy sit for us in the future.”
“This was my first time booking Rebecca, after my regular sitter moved away. Everything seems to have gone well, kitty seems happy and well fed and that makes ME happy 😊 Thank you so very much for sitting for my invisible cat 😂”
“Christina was excellent! She took really good care of our cat Pebbles, including with her special/medicated food -- which is always tricky for us when we hire a sitter, but Christina did amazing! Pebbles warmed up to her super quickly, too, and we always looked forward to her reports and photos. Will definitely hire her again!”
“Kieanne is a wonderful sitter!!! She sent so many fun updates with pictures and videos of our cats while we were away. I could tell they were in great hands with her :) will definitely be booking again next time we need a sitter!”
“Alyssa was great. She was kind and took good care of Charlie while I was away. I would definitely recommend her and will request her again in the future!”
“Always so grateful we found Ansley. We hire her for every trip we take. Our cats love her, and it makes traveling so much easier. Thanks for everything, Ansley 🥰 can't wait to have you back for the next trip!”
About: Since the age of 8 I have cared both emotionally and physically for the well being of animals — all animals, but hands on experience has revolved mostly around dogs and cats. My own, friends’, family’s, fosters… I am the go-to gal for animal care. I am up for grabs and paws two days a week, (Sunday/Monday) and certainly some Tues-Sat evenings, as well. Just message me if you have specific times to request. I will come into your home with respect for you and your furry family. I will care for them with patience and love: feeding, walking, playing, petting, administering medication, and/or just giving (and receiving!) great company to (and from) your companion(s).
“Ashley is amazing! She is communicative and attentive and she truly cared about the happiness and safety of my cat. When I came home, Maggie was happy, healthy and safe. Ashley noticed the house was getting stuffy while I was gone and turned on the fans so my kitty would be comfy. She pampered Maggie with attention. Ashley also sent detailed updates and sent Lots of cute pics and videos! It put my mind at ease knowing Ashley was taking such great care of her. . I definitely recommend her!! I will be booking her again for sure! 10/10 stars ⭐️”
“Danielle did a wonderful job of watching or cat over the Christmas holiday. She was reliable and needed very little information. She sent great pictures of our Alfie clearly happy with her company.”
“Cat loves her to the point where he is "the only cat that doesn't randomly attack [her]". Very communicative and my cat loves it when she comes over. Eases his stress a ton when I'm on the road for work”
“OMG, I don’t think we could have had a better sitter! We have not left town since we bought our house in 2021. Over the last year we have had a really rough time and we needed a couple days away from the city, just a break from normal life and reconnecting with my fiancé. I was very nervous about leaving, and then my fiancé's parents told us that they couldn’t watch the dogs, and we didn’t have a backup plan. But I am so glad we found Josie! She saved our little vacation and put me so at ease that I felt I could leave and not have to worry about the babies at home. It has been amazing to relax with my fiancé for a few days and I owe that to Josie! Our dogs are a lot to take in for a new person, but her love for animals shined through and our girls loved her! Bless her heart, Luna is still full of puppy energy and she isn’t small, half Irish wolfhound, and Josie was great with her. Even when I thought Luna was going to knock her over, she was still as calm and happy as she could be. She was able to take on the job short notice, and she was punctual for every meeting and visit. She had such positive energy from the moment I met her. Our girls are kind of picky about who they like and who they accept into our home, and they absolutely loved her. I was so worried she was gonna run screaming lol. She also went out of her way to help with our roosters which were not part of the job, but had flipped over their waterer the first 3 hours we were gone. So she’s attentive and if she sees something that needs to be done, whether it’s part of her job or not, she did it. That type of work ethic is very hard to come by these days! She was also more respectful of our home than we are! I appreciate the care she gave our babies and our home. She is a very hard worker and she stayed longer just to make sure that everyone was safe and happy! This was our first experience with a professional pet sitter and Josie was great! We hope our girls didn’t scare her away from coming back for us in September. If you are looking for a caring, attentive and hard working sitter, then you definitely need to book Josie. She will take care of your home and all of your animals like they were her own. You can rest easy with her, your fur babies and feathered babies are in the best hands!”
“Elisha was really great! She checked in with me daily, made sure my kitties got all the attention they wanted while she was there. I felt very reassured she was looking over then while I was out of town.”
“Bill was very friendly, communicative and punctual. Thanks so much!”
“Chrystina was available for a drop in visit the next day. She kept in communication and sent lots of pictures to keep us updated! Very friendly and would recommend!”
“Alyssa is the best! She checked-in on my two cats over the holidays and was very communicative on what time she’d be stopping by so I never had to wonder when I’d be getting an update. She sent photo updates every day and I could tell my cats were being played with and having fun. She even managed to coax my shy cat out from under the bed for some pets and play time. I also came home to a sparkling place; all food bowls had been washed and litter area swept, thank you! I highly recommend Alyssa and will be using her for all my future sittings. ?”
“Brittany helped me out super last minute which was amazing (someone else backed out the night before we were leaving for a trip) she was so quick to respond. She was great with the communication and we loved the pictures she took of our kitty, this was our first time using rover and Brittany made it a great experience, I would definitely recommend her!”
“Laura is great! She has been walking out dog for a while, but also recently did a few weeks of drop ins for our cats while we were out of town!! She is fantastic to communicate with, the animals love her, and she brought in the mail/packages. We love her!”
“Robin was flexible with scheduling, helped monitor a couple medical concerns, and took cute pictures! We will absolutely have her do a drop in again!”
About: I have experience with puppies to senior dogs. Kittens to senior cats. Anything in an aquarium, as well as reptiles. I’m comfortable with medications, and special diets. I work full time, but I generally am up by 6 am to take my dogs for a walk, and give my kitties some extra love and kitty crunchies. I do have a partner that is able to watch our pets while I give all the love to yours!! I have a fenced yard, so my dogs pretty much have a place of their own. I typically pick up their messes immediately after just for cleanliness purposes. I deep clean my cat boxes once a week, and scoop them everyday.

“Alexis is amazing with my pets! He takes my dog Oscar out into the backyard to play while I'm gone, and Oscar absolutely loves it! Alexis always gives him plenty of attention and love while I'm gone so that my puppy isn't anxious, and when its super hot outside, he gives him plenty of water to drink so that Oscar doesn't get dehydrated. Alexis is also fantastic with my cat. My cat Luna loves to lay on his lap and be petted while Alexis is there, and Alexis even uses the cat toys to play with her to keep her entertained :) On top of all that, Alexis is great at remembering the dietary restrictions that Oscar has and he always makes sure to feed both Oscar and Luna if I ask him to. My pets absolutely love him and Oscar always gets super excited when he comes over! :)”

Sierra did a great job taking care of my kitty while I was out of town. Happy that she could help me out and was extremely flexible.
Danielle is THE BEST. She has been nothing short of diligent and kind to me and my girl Emry. She knows how to take care of your beloved furbabies, when you are not around and need someone to help take care of them. She is punctual, always sends photos and updates about the progress of status. Last but the best part- your furbaby will love her. What more do you need?? If you need someone to help out for your furbaby’s care, Danielle should be the one you should reach out to! Dont hesitate!
Jori is great! She was so fast to respond and super easy to coordinate care for our pets, and very accommodating to our needs and special requests. It's obvious she loves all animals and we will ask her to come back to care for our pets every time we need to travel. Highly recommend her services!
Tiffany did an awesome job keeping my cat happy while I was gone! I would be happy to re book in the future!

Glory was great and took perfect care of my Dali! She also provided the cutest pictures of him. I would definitely recommend and use her again if I need someone to check in on my cat in the future :)
Our previous care plans for our two cats fell through, and we were heading out of town for two weeks. Nicholas took on two weeks of care last minute for us with minimal instructions and no time for a meet and greet as I gave him less than 24 hours notice. I came home to two well fed and well cared for cats, who had clean litter boxes. He also watered my plants for me and kept them from succumbing to the hot weather we had. We really appreciate the time and effort Nicholas put into caring for our cats and gardens.
Hire Alyssa! She’s amazing. She cares for your babies like her own. I love her communication and updates! It’s really helpful to know your fur babies are safe with her and your space is cared for!
Elisha was great to work with! She was so sweet with our kitty, and we greatly appreciated her communication with us before and during the booking. Thanks again Elisha!!
Elisiya is always great with my cat! I can’t recommend her enough if you need someone to watch your pets!
Dana was fantastic! She took amazing care of our kitty, provided great updates, and was super communicative. She went well above the call of duty and we're grateful for it.
This is the second time I’ve booked Cameo and once again she exceeded expectations. This sitter provided excellent care for my pets and kept in regular, clear communication throughout. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands while I was away.
My cat took to Noel very quickly. Noel sent plenty of updates and followed care instructions perfectly. LOVED all the photos she sent everyday ❤️
Came home to some super happy pups and kitties! Kelly was amazing with communication and updates, and my animals were super relaxed. Definitely will be rebooking with her the next time I’m out of town!
Thanks for filling in until my regular River sitter was available. Now I have you as a backup sitter! Sounds like everything went well for both you and Chico. Thank you!
Miriam was great! She did a 30 minute check in for my cat, Ruth, while I was out of town. She showed up right on time for the pre-check in meetup and was very attentive while I showed her the food and litter box. During the check in, she did a great job taking care of Ruth and sent loads of pics and funny updates. She also messaged me the day before the check in, just to confirm she would be there the next day, which was nice. I will definitely book her again in the future!
Alicia was perfect! She was great at communicating and an amazing cat sitter too. We got great photos and I knew my kitty was in great hands. Will definitely use Alicia again in the future.
Absolutely amazing experience! We were so scared to leave our cats with someone, and Violet did a fantastic job making sure they were taken care of. She followed instructions well with medications, food portions, and care for the cats. She also went above and beyond with their treatment for play and spending time with them.
