Jay Lynne was great with our two very different cats. She catered to each of their personalities and made sure they were super well cared for. She provided us with frequent updates and was an amazing communicator. We really appreciate her and will definitely have her care for our babies again.

Luis did a terrific job taking care of our dogs (and chickens). He came very well-prepared to the meet and greet prior to his stay and we immediately felt comfortable having him care for our pets. Luis kept us up to date on how the dogs were doing throughout his stay, and we returned to happy pets and a clean home - thanks!

Luciana did a great job watching my standard poodle, Henri. She was very regular in communication, sending multiple photos each day. I feel like he was well taken care of during my vacation and I'd be happy to have her watch Henri again.

Wendy is awesome! She kept us updated with pics of our pup while away and was responsive before and during booking. Our dog has a lot of energy and Wendy kept up with him playing fetch and keeping him happy. She stayed at our place for almost a week, and we came back to a clean house and a happy dog (she even took out the trash and washed the sheets of the guest bed!). Wendy was great, and we will definitely be using her again for our next travel!

Ana was an amazing sitter for my pup Ava. I recently lost my long term sitter, and only had a short amount of time to find a new sitter before a week long vacation. Ana was extremely flexible with booking a meet and greet given the short notice. That flexibility continued when coordinating House key drop-offs, dealing with home internet issues and adding an extra walk on the last day of her stay. I could tell immediately my pup really connected with Ana. I received several updates and photos each day. At least one before or after each walk or activity. They had a wonderful time together. When I returned, I came home to a happy healthy pup, and I knew my girl had been well cared for. I absolutely recommend Ana for pet sitting and dog walking.

Victoria did a wonderful job taking care of my pup Chickpea in my apartment and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a Rover! A different Rover last minute cancelled on me and Victoria was flexible, communicative, and able to do a quick meet and great with my pup before I left. She sent me pictures throughout the stay and left my place in great condition. I really appreciated Victoria's care for my pup and I would definitely use her again.

Victoria was such a great pet/house sitter! Our pup can be a bit anxious so we knew boarding wouldn’t be the best fit for him. Victoria made us feel very comfortable by sending us detailed updates and pictures throughout the day. She took great care of our place. Would definitely book her again!
