1. Pui T.

“Pui is wonderful. Our cat Eleven can be wary of strangers, yet she seemed at ease with Pui and came out to play and receive a snack rather than hiding away. Pui looked after her excellently during her drop-in and sent lots of photos and a video. My partner and I felt so reassured and relieved to see Eleven happy while we're away. Huge thanks, Pui.”




2. Charlie S.

“Charlie was absolutely great, her communication was incredible and we came home to a very happy cat after 4 days away. She went above and beyond when he was poorly and sent lots of updates. I would highly recommend her and will definitely be asking her to look after our cat when we are next away.”

“We cannot be more thankful to have found Maggie! We have never seen our Tequila smile so much. She is beyond extraordinary ✨⭐️💫🌟”


4. Abigail C.

“As in previous occasions, Abigail has been a fantastic carer for our two guinea pigs. Lots of updates and pictures, good communication, she is just perfect! More than recommended.”


5. Ricardo P.

“Ricardo was just amazing! He took such good care of our cats and didn't just feed them but played with them every day. We got photos, videos and meal updates and we felt very sure that our babies were in good hands. Ricardo came at the same time every day, was very communicative and even helped with a last minute request. I'll surely book him again!”


6. Lesley N.

“Lesley has been amazing! She made sure my cats were looked after well when I was away. She was checking in regularly, sending me thorough updates and photos/videos, as well as kept my home clean and tidy. I will definitely book Lesley again and I 100% recommend her services!”


7. Irene B.

“I and my cat Max were 100% happy with Irene's service. She was reliable and very caring. Paid attention to Max, and he was so glad to see her! Would recommend and will book again.”


8. Giulia B.

“We are so grateful for Giulia’s care for Chester and Tika! We reached out to her just a few days before our trip, and she responded immediately and was available to help. She was very friendly, accommodating with key pick-up and drop-off, and flexible with our schedule. During her visits, Giulia kept us updated with photos/videos and messages about how Chester and Tika were doing. The cats absolutely adored her, and we could tell she took excellent care of them. We are extremely thankful and highly recommend Giulia to look after your fur babies! -Karolina and Lee”


9. Drew L.

“Drew was amazing - super friendly and communicative! It was my first time using rover so was feeling quite nervous but I felt completely at ease once I met Drew and appreciated the detailed updates and photos. My cat, Fry, can be quite shy of new people but warmed to Drew after a couple of visits and seemed very bouncy and relaxed when we got home. So grateful and couldn’t recommend enough :) thank you!”


10. Anh N.

“Would definitely recommend Anh as a pet sitter. She did a great job looking after our cats while we were away. Communication was very easy and she sent us lots of updates. Cats seemed very relaxed and happy when we got back.”


11. Omari D.
“I own a 2 year old 60KG bullmastiff called Zeus, He is a very well behaved dog and amazingly trained too, he is also amazing with children and other dogs but as dogs do he can be quite protective of his family and house, Since getting a new job I needed someone to walk Zeus and mind him for only a couple hours before I get back home from work, Obviously I was very nervous about leaving Zeus with someone who he has never met before as most big dog owners would but Omari’s skills when he first met Zeus was amazing he really took to him and understood him as a dog, When I later picked my boy up from Omari they was the best of friends and I could see that Zeus didn’t want to say good bye as they have had so much fun together, I was so surprised and happy to see Zeus in such good hands, I would highly recommend Omari he is very professional and very wise about the nature of dogs and different breeds.”


12. Agostina O.

“Agostina is a fantastic and caring sitter, I could not recommend her enough! Mercy, our cat was taken care of by Agostina twice now, I have been updated with messages and pictures. If you want your pet to be in safe hand, Agostina is the one !”


13. Megan L.
“Megan came and stayed with our beloved Toby in our home. In a true German shepherd nervous fashion Toby can be very intimidating towards new people, however Megan’s calm and patient demeanour put Toby at ease. She followed our instructions to a T; successfully administered Toby his oral medication ( some sitters really struggle with that) and even took him out for a little walk for toilet. She kept us up to date with sending photos and videos. We are very happy to have found Megan and we will definitely be booking her again.”


14. Emma T.

“Emma helped us out at very short notice with a cat sit and bit was so reassuring. She was prompt and was thorough. Gave me all relevant feedback on the visit. My cat can be a bit nervous amd she was understanding of that. Yes, would recommend Emma and book again.”


15. Charlotte H.
“Charlotte is so caring and accommodating when it comes to my very lively cockapoo! Reliable and professional, I couldn’t recommend her enough. She’s also got an adorable little sausage dog herself!”


16. Alice M.

“Alice has been looking after my dog, Stella and is always providing amazing updates. As Stella has recently been adopted I wasn't sure how well she would accept a new person but Alice has been great with her!! Alice has been super reliable and flexible which is really appreciated!”


17. Rebecca S.
“Becca has been my #1 cat sitter of choice for over 2 years now! She is super friendly, kind, thoughtful and attentive, and my ragdoll Branston absolutely adores her. Its clear that Becca is a real animal lover from the affection and care she shows. I am a classic over anxious cat mum(!) and can worry about leaving him, but when I know Becca is looking after him I feel so much happier and confident he is in great hands. Becca is super reliable and organised, sending me very cute pics at every visit which I appreciate loads. Don't hesitate in booking Becca to look after your fluffy baby!! <3”


18. Spike G.
“Spike regularly looks after our little border terrier Refn, and has a fantastic rapport with her. He is great with dogs, she has bonded well with him. He also provides regular updates and photos too. Would definitely recommend Spike ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”


19. Federica G.
“Federica is the animal whisperer! She’s amazing with and loves all animals & they in turn love her back. I’d highly recommend her to look after your pets as they would be in great & caring hands! She has looked after my sausage dog Peanut for a few years now & he never want to come home when he stays with her. Thanks for everything, we’d be truly lost without you!”


20. Anastasiia O.

“Anastasiia was a fantastic sitter - I came home to a clean flat and a very happy cat, what more can you ask for? She kept me updated all throughout my trip and quickly got to grips with my cats medication schedule. Can't recommend her enough!”
