“Starry & Gio were very easy to communicate with (very responsive) and kept me updated on everything. They are great caretakers and my dog was very happy being with them. Thank you!”

“Merin was AMAZING!! I really felt Moose was being well taken care of and left me with such peace of mind while on vacation. She was super thorough, gave constant updates, and reached out with any questions/concerns. Hands down we found our go to sitter which is the best feeling knowing I have someone to trust to take care of Moose when I need a little R&R! Thank you!!”


“Sal and Troy were great hosts for my dog. I liked the fact that they gave my dog a lot of exercise which he usually needs. I will definitely recommend them to any one who wants to feel comfortable when away about their dog.”

“Angela (and her partner Dan) took great care of Truffle. They sent meticulous updates with photos throughout the day. Truffle got to spend plenty of time outside and was very comfortable in their home.”

“Deibi and Tiffany took wonderful care of my two dogs over a long weekend. I received detailed updates, photos, and videos everyday. Tiffany was super responsive and she’s so kind! My dogs didn’t want to leave!!!”

“Sabrina is incredible and took special care of my dog. She keeps in constant contact with photos and videos. This was my first time using Rover and I will definitely book with Sabrina again. 10/10 fully recommend her!”

“Farrah had another fantastic stay at Ian and Clementina’s! They shared numerous updates, photos, and videos during her multi day stay at their apartment, and came back super happy!!”

“Michael is simply the greatest dog boarder in the history of the world. When you book through Michael, though, you don't just get him, you also get his amazing wife, too. Michael took care of my dog Lucas during a medical emergency. I was at work at the hospital after midnight. We were terribly low-staffed. There was no one to take over my patients. If I'd left work, I probably would have lost my license and been fired for abandonment. Michael took my dog to an emergency 24 hour vet and didn't get back home until like 2 in the morning. The care he took of my dog went above and beyond. He is awesome, he is amazing, he is smart and capable and caring, I cannot say enough good things about him. You can trust your fur babies with Michael. With him and his wife, they are in amazing hands. It's always scary entrusting your canine children to a stranger, but with Michael you realize that he's not a stranger, he's the family member you didn't know you had. Thank you Michael!!!”

“Sammy was a rockstar! She was quick to reply, sent many videos/pics, and made it easy for me to leave Olive in her care. Olive is very timid, and she warmed up quickly to Sammy. Thank you Sammy for everything!”
“My pup can be very anxious and Nicolle went above and beyond to make sure he was well taken care of. It took so much stress off my vacation planning and will definitely book again:)”

“Kevin and Kelly took great care of Nova . She came back home a happy pup and made a new friend, Lottie ! It was super easy to communicate with them and they were both very responsive. Kevin shared some super cute and fun pictures of Nova. I will be sure to board her with Kevin and Kelly again and highly recommend them !”

“Luisa is so awesome and amazing with Mimi! I could tell Mimi had a great time with her stay. I couldn't have asked for a better person to watch my lil golden gal. I would 100% go back to Luisa again!”
“Rue had such a great time with Grace! Everything went smooth and Rue felt right at home. Got plenty of cute updates while we were away, would absolutely leave her with Grace again!”

“Both Tanvi and Karthik were great hosts. They sent pictures of atom regularly and made sure he was fed on time and taken for bathroom breaks regularly. It was a great experience with both of them. I will definitely be choosing them again. Looking forward to further engagements😇”

“Soo Min was excellent with my dog, sent pictures during the visit, and frequent communication, and attention to detail, very trustworthy and friendly. Definitely recommend!! :)”

“Hila did an amazing job watching Moose. She provided updates throughout his stay and was very reliable with communications. Big perk, she was also able pick/drop off Moose. Will be relying on Hila again for his next stay!”


“I definitely recommend Jessica! She was great with updating us and responds very quickly. I was a little nervous about her son and how my dog would react with a child, but they got along great! I usually worry so much about Rooney and how he's doing but I completely trusted her and actually relaxed on vacation for once!”


“We were very happy with Deborah's services. We left Taz with Deborah for a few hours while my husband and I attended an event. Our Taz has some separation anxiety, but he seemed to be very much at ease with her. When we were leaving Taz put his paws on her knees and wagged his tail, which he really only does with people he is comfortable with and likes, so it seems he enjoyed his stay with her! Deborah was friendly and professional from start to finish, and was understanding when we ran a few minutes behind schedule. We also appreciated the way she interacted with our senior boy. We would leave Taz with Deborah again.”

“My cat has quite a few special needs, and Kobi did a great job making sure he was well taken care of! She sent pictures everyday either playing or hanging out with my cat which was awesome. I highly recommend her for all your cat sitting needs!”


“Jessica is really awesome, communicative, and super kind. She took great care of Tuesday, who can be a little shy. Jessica made sure Tuesday's water/food area stayed broom-swept clean, sent videos, and helped to keep Tuesdays litter area clean too. I would definitely book again!”


“Yun did a great job taking care of my cat Banjo while I was away for a trip. Yun sent detailed updates during drop-in visits, including pictures and videos. Thanks again, Yun!”


“Isaac was great. Came by for a meet/greet before the sit. Was clear in communication and provided detailed updates and photos. Highly recommend. Would use his services again.”


“Zoe took such good care of Kiwi!! She sent me lots of adorable photos and updates and was responsive whenever I checked in. She was also super accommodating with the pick-up and drop-off and even graciously agreed to keep Kiwi one extra day when my flight was delayed last minute. Would board with her again!”


About: Cats have always been an important part of my life, and I currently share my home with two Maine Coon cats. This strong bond came 9 years ago when I first adopted my cat Peanut. Caring for them has given me firsthand experience with everything from daily feeding and grooming to understanding feline behavior, body language, and individual personalities. I know that every cat is different—some love attention and playtime, while others prefer a quieter environment and affection on their own terms. I'm experienced in maintaining routines, keeping litter boxes clean, providing enrichment and interactive play, and creating a calm, stress-free atmosphere where cats feel safe and comfortable. My experience with Maine Coons has also made me familiar with the grooming needs of long-haired breeds, including brushing, coat maintenance, and monitoring for mats. Whether your cat is social and outgoing or shy and independent, I'll provide patient, attentive care tailored to their needs while keeping you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay. 🐱💕

“Rebecca is a great sitter- very communicative and punctual. We knew that our cat was in good hands while we were away. Thank you Rebecca for taking such good care of Havva!”

“Pooja was great! Took our booking at the last minute for drop-in visits and did a great job looking after Henry for us while I was away and my fiance was at work. She followed instructions very well and was great at communicating with us after each visit. Would recommend her for anyone looking for reliable pet care services!”


“Francesca was amazing with my cats, as always! She accepted last minute booking and was very communicative leading up to and during the visit. She stayed at my apartment and left the space spotless and my cats were very happy when I got home. Don’t hesitate to book Francesca for your next trip, your cats will be in great hands.”


“Christina is the best petsitter you could truly ask for! She was so patient and loving with our timid cat while we were away. She tried all the tricks to get our cat out of hiding and her perseverance paid off! They Winnie finally emerged and they bonded! Christina goes above and beyond in her communication, rover cards and care of Winnie and home. I'm so grateful to have found such a trustworthy, warm, humorous and thorough care giver for our kitty. I cannot recommend her enough! Thank you so much, Christina!! You're the BEST!”

About: Lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. My household includes a Doberman Pinscher, a Great Dane, and two Maine Coon cats, so I'm comfortable managing everything from giant breeds and high-energy dogs to independent, affectionate cats. Living with a Doberman has given me experience with intelligent, active dogs that thrive on structure, exercise, and attention. My Great Dane has taught me the unique needs of giant breeds, including gentle handling, patience, and awareness of their size and comfort. My two Maine Coons have helped me develop an understanding of feline behavior, grooming needs, and creating a calm, enriching environment for cats. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their routine, I have the space and resources to provide attentive, reliable care tailored to their individual needs. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 🐕🐈 Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As the owner of a Doberman Pinscher, a Great Dane, and two Maine Coon cats, my days are already structured around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, exercise, and providing plenty of attention and companionship. I work with a flexible schedule that allows me to be present throughout the day for potty breaks, walks, supervised play, and check-ins. Pets in my care receive regular attention rather than being left alone for long periods. My large rooftop deck also provides a convenient space for supervised outdoor time and exercise between walks. I understand the importance of maintaining consistency, so I do my best to follow your pet's normal routine, including feeding times, medication schedules, exercise needs, and any special instructions. Whether your pet is energetic and active or prefers a quieter environment, I can accommodate their individual needs and help them feel comfortable and at home during their stay. 🐾 Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a clean, secure, and pet-friendly environment where animals can relax, play, and feel at home while you're away. I share my home with two friendly, well-socialized large dogs—a Doberman Pinscher and a Great Dane—who are accustomed to being around other animals. I carefully manage introductions and always prioritize each pet's comfort level to ensure a positive experience for everyone. One of the highlights of my home is a spacious 1,600-square-foot private rooftop deck, providing plenty of room for supervised outdoor time, fresh air, play, and exercise. Pets are never left unattended outdoors, and all activities are monitored to maintain a safe environment. As a pet owner myself, I understand the trust involved in leaving your furry family member in someone else's care. I'll keep you updated with regular photos, videos, and messages so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. 🐾
“Very happy to have found Zoe (and her husband) on Rover to take care of Noodle. From the very beginning, Zoe was professional, friendly, and clearly passionate about caring for dogs. Zoe was responsive to all the questions and concerns prior to the booking. She kept me updated with messages and photos during day care. It was clear that Noodle was well cared for and loved during his stay. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”

“My dog now becomes friend with Vera’s dog! Even before the day care start date she has already asked many questions for my dog to make sure everything is ready. During the day care she constantly sends my update with photos and videos. I know my dog has a wonderful stay at her home with his dog friend!”

“Danielle has such great energy . She is kind , trustworthy and seams like a natural with animals . It takes sometime for Freye to open up to new people but almost instantly my Freya felt comfortable with Danielle. Danielle provided videos , pictures and updates in real time that helped me know what was going on. Danielle went above and beyond for my little Freya and is highly recommended. I will defiantly be using Danielle again !”

About: I love all dogs -- small, big, somewhere in the middle. They're silly, noble, riddled with quirks. Sometimes the city is a lot for them -- I get it. I have a big ol' gentle hound who is my whole world. I am a very active person and love getting to explore the neighborhood (that means with your dog too!). If my client already has a schedule they would prefer to adhere to, I will make sure to stick to it! I am versatile and flexible in ensuring that your pup/cat is well situated while they are under my care. I have baby proofed my house in the past for my own dogs and am very observant in taking precautionary measures to create a safe environment. Otherwise, I am comfortable with crating if that is preferred.
About: Hello my name is Nicholas and I'm a pet loving, experienced dog walker. I just received my first 5 star rating. I take great pride in providing the best pet care possible for my clients. Besides having pets growing up I was the only child. So I fully understand the value of a pet as a member of the family. I'm a full time pet care provider but more over we're a family owned business. So we provide pet care in McGinley Square and in Society Hill. Essentially we walk, board, pet visit, and doggy daycare all week. Plus on holidays. We have a backyard so the guys get run some laps and get in some much needed quality time. Plus we literally take group photos. Plenty of belly rubs to give out and fresh Poland Spring for the modern active doggo.
“Grace was flexible and able to accommodate my dog last minute, and was great at giving medicine on time and taking her on walks. And my dog seemed to feel at home right away!”

“They provided the best care for my pup. It was my first time leaving him with a sitter and I was nervous but they comforted me the whole time he was there and send many photos and videos. Very grateful and will definitely rebook!”


“Yutong was great with Latte! Sent plenty of updates throughout the day and it seemed like Latte had a great time with them! Will definitely book with Yutong again if needed!”

I also have experience in dog sitting puppies, big dogs and older dogs! I work a hybrid schedule, spending 3 days a week at the office in NYC and the rest of the week at home in Hoboken. On remote days, I’m flexible to take pups out for long walks and breaks. I’m also available for overnight stays throughout the week if you need! When caring for any clients pets, I will make sure to ask any and all questions to ensure their pet is in safe hands. I will respect their home and follow any instructions they give me to build our trust and to make sure their pet is satisfied.

“Paige was very communicative and accommodating! We had a non-traditional request - just a quick in-home “daycare” for an evening - and Paige was very flexible and understanding.”

About: Hi! My name is Ashley and I am originally from Los Angeles. I grew up with three dogs who taught me how to be patient and loving. I have also spent a good amount of time dog-sitting and boarding different dogs. This has given me the experience I need in order to provide the best service for you and your dog. I am reliable and I would treat your dogs like part of my family. I work from home full time so I can easily fit a dog into my weekly routine. I am always conscious of letting dogs out frequently and taking them on longer walks before/after work. I live in an apartment and I do not have a fenced yard. However, I live close to multiple parks and would take your dog on walks a few times a day. Your dog is allowed on my furniture if they are potty trained. I usually allow dogs to sleep with me if they want to!
About: I provide the ultimate combination of care, attention, and fun for your furry friend. I go on walks outside during the day, and my building has a convenient dog run in case it’s rainning. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages and energy . I did many training classes with a professional trainer in order to train my golden retriever. I am always around to ensure your dog is never lonely and gets all the attention they need. Your pup will be in a loving, safe, and active environment! I am home all day and able to provide constant attention to the dogs in my care. I take frequent breaks throughout the day for walks, ensuring the dogs get plenty of exercise and fresh air. In addition to our daily walks, the dog run in my building is a perfect spot for quick play sessions. My flexible schedule means I'm always around to meet your dog's needs! In my two-bedroom apartment, there is plenty of space for your dog to feel at home. With regular walks, access to the building’s dog run, and plenty of playtime, your dog will have a balanced mix of exercise and relaxation. I also have two friendly dogs, a two year old Golden Retriever, and another Golden Retriever whom I adopted in October 2025 (puppy). My 15 year old Shih Tzu crossed the rainbow bridge on 1/24/2026. He required multiple medications, so I am experienced in caring for senior dogs. Since I work from home, I am always present to provide attention and care throughout the day, ensuring your dog is never alone.
“Xueying was amazing! I left my sweet boy with her and she kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout his stay. He always looked so happy and well cared for. I was running late to pick him up because of traffic, and she was so understanding. I highly recommend booking with her,your fur baby will love her!”


“We have a last minute trip planned and all my regular dog sitters weren’t available, then my friend recommended Jessica since she took a good care of her cats during her trip to Europe. And I was more than glad to have booked with her — she’s caring and communicative, adapted to Shumai’s personality and needs, also took her out for plenty of walks. We will definitely go back to Jessica for the future boarding needs.”

“Alison was incredibly patient with my new rescue dog, Olive, who tends to need a bit of time to warm up to people. She took some time to give Olive some treats and get to know her prior to taking her out for the walk which was so appreciated! I am excited to have her take Olive on more walks.”

About: Hi, I’m Jocelyn! Based in McGinley Square, Jersey City, I offer flexible pet care with experience handling all kinds of personalities, from bouncy pups to chill cats. My own toy poodle, Honey, is friendly but prefers her personal space, and my two cats are wonderfully independent. I’ve cared for pets big and small, energetic or easygoing, and always incredibly lovable. As a fourth-year neuropsychology student, I spend most of my time studying at home and am only out a few hours a day for class or my internship. I tend to read my textbooks aloud while studying, and every fur baby I’ve looked after seems to enjoy a mini lecture on neural systems! 🧠🐾 Whether your pet wants cuddles, quiet company, or a walking buddy with treats in her pocket, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. 🐶🐱💕 My social life mostly involves textbooks and tail wags! I spend a lot of time at home studying or relaxing, which makes pet care an easy and enjoyable part of my routine. I like to work with each owner to find what schedule and style of care fit best for their pet’s needs. You can trust that your pet will feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. In My Home: Your pet will have a cozy, safe space where they can relax comfortably, especially if they prefer quiet or personal space. I provide structured routines with regular feeding, walks, and playtimes, always keeping an eye on their comfort and stress levels. Pets are allowed on the furniture. If you'd like your dog to be crated, please provide your own crate. In Clients’ Homes: I ensure each visit feels familiar and comforting for your pet, sticking to their routine as much as possible. I refresh food, water, and any bedding as needed, and provide companionship and plenty of play. My focus is on creating a seamless transition so your pet feels safe and secure while you’re away.
“Amy has been fantastic with my dog! She always sends a detailed Rover card after each visit, complete with plenty of pictures, which I really appreciate. It’s clear she takes great care to make sure my dog is happy and comfortable. Amy also goes the extra mile by refilling the water bowl and giving treats before heading out. It’s those small touches that show she genuinely cares. If you’re looking for a reliable and thoughtful dog walker, I highly recommend Amy!”


About: Hi I am Olivia (aka Si). I love dogs, cats and all small animals. I have one Shiba Inu and two British Shorthair. I've taken care of dogs, cats, and other small animals like rabbits, and guinea pigs for more than 10 years. When I was in Seattle, I volunteered at the Seattle Humane Society in my spare time, and was a foster parent. I always help my friends or my parents' friends to take care of their dogs and cats when they are away, and I received very positive feedback every time when they back. I am willing to spread my passion of love to anyone who needs help. Pets are our friends, our family, so it is important to give them many cares just like how we care our close friends and family. I'm normally working from home so I can be available on weekdays and weekends. I am working from home most of the time, so I am flexible with your time. I can do weekdays or weekends. Feel free to inquire. I live in an apartment and will be able to separate your pet from mine if needed. I will feed them separately and ensure they have their own food.

“Sal and Troy were great hosts for my dog. I liked the fact that they gave my dog a lot of exercise which he usually needs. I will definitely recommend them to any one who wants to feel comfortable when away about their dog.”

“Deibi and Tiffany took wonderful care of my two dogs over a long weekend. I received detailed updates, photos, and videos everyday. Tiffany was super responsive and she’s so kind! My dogs didn’t want to leave!!!”

“Michael is simply the greatest dog boarder in the history of the world. When you book through Michael, though, you don't just get him, you also get his amazing wife, too. Michael took care of my dog Lucas during a medical emergency. I was at work at the hospital after midnight. We were terribly low-staffed. There was no one to take over my patients. If I'd left work, I probably would have lost my license and been fired for abandonment. Michael took my dog to an emergency 24 hour vet and didn't get back home until like 2 in the morning. The care he took of my dog went above and beyond. He is awesome, he is amazing, he is smart and capable and caring, I cannot say enough good things about him. You can trust your fur babies with Michael. With him and his wife, they are in amazing hands. It's always scary entrusting your canine children to a stranger, but with Michael you realize that he's not a stranger, he's the family member you didn't know you had. Thank you Michael!!!”

“My pup can be very anxious and Nicolle went above and beyond to make sure he was well taken care of. It took so much stress off my vacation planning and will definitely book again:)”

“Both Tanvi and Karthik were great hosts. They sent pictures of atom regularly and made sure he was fed on time and taken for bathroom breaks regularly. It was a great experience with both of them. I will definitely be choosing them again. Looking forward to further engagements😇”

“Hila did an amazing job watching Moose. She provided updates throughout his stay and was very reliable with communications. Big perk, she was also able pick/drop off Moose. Will be relying on Hila again for his next stay!”

“Ivette was an awesome sitter for Zumba, she was also very accommodating with the drop-off and pick-up times. She sent messages as well as pics of Zumba. My fur baby was tired and happy from all the playtime and walks. I would 100% recommend her to anyone that wants a great friend to your pet while you're away. I look forward to contacting her again when we need a sitter. Thank you Ivette!”

About: I am a recent graduate of Catch Canine Trainers Academy and am open to giving feedback on training or behavior modification.If I have the solution, I am willing to do some training during my stay. We can discuss the details at the meet and greet. I love to walk and be around dogs. I have extensive experience as a shelter volunteer in Brooklyn and will always be ready with a treat and lots of pets for your pup. I have handled all types of dogs and am in this for the positive benefits of caring for dogs more than anything else. In my mind, it's a dog's world and we are here to nurture these beautiful creatures that just remind us of our own inner beauty and make us better people. We can learn alot from dogs and I am here to help make their experience special and to look after them as if they were my own. I currently have full availability so I am pretty flexible and can probably accommodate clients on short notice. I just moved to Jersey and am looking forward to meeting pups from Jersey City and Hoboken. I don't do boardings, but the sitting clients that I have worked for have told me that I did a good job of respecting their home and whatever guidelines they told me to follow during the initial meet and greet.
“I would highly recommend Caren to anyone looking for someone to love their pup while they are away! She is great with my high energy dog! I know my pup is well taken care of when she stays with her. Caren is very responsive, takes my dog on plenty of walks, and always sends great photos and videos! Thanks, Caren!”

“Bernadette was simply the best. She made everything so easy. I was away for a week and not once did I worry about my dog. She was highly communicative and personable; she sent updates. Extremely professional. And most important: I could tell my dog absolutely loved her. Highly, highly recommend! A plus service.”

“Binny and her husband were great with my dog, Benny. She immediately made me feel at ease awhen we first met, and Benny loved her too. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter! 🐕 I will definitely leave Benny in their care again.”

“Natalia is so trustworthy. My 18 month old was right at home with her. She was so caring and loving towards Kiryu. I really appreciate her flexibility in accommodating last minute schedule changes. She took care of Kiryu like her own baby and even fed him chicken and rice after a bout of upset stomach. Definitely recommend Natalia!”

“Jarianna was an incredibly sweet sitter to my dog! Super responsive and shared many photo updates throughout my dog’s stay. She was also flexible with pick up and drop off times which I truly appreciated since I had some travel delays. My dog seemed super happy and energetic when I picked her up. I would absolutely use her services again and recommend her to all my friends. Thank you so much!!”

About: I grew up with cats — five of them — so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Friends regularly trust me to cat sit, and I truly love creating a calm, safe, and affectionate environment for pets. About six years ago, I completely fell in love with dogs too — especially after bonding with my partner’s rescue from Mexico, a big Golden Retriever/Labrador mix with a strong personality and an even bigger heart. He’s a 100-pound baby, and I loved taking him on long walks (sometimes 2 hours!), playing, cuddling, and keeping him happy and active. Over the years, I’ve gained plenty of hands-on experience dog sitting for friends and caring for different personalities and energy levels. Whether your pet loves adventure, playtime, or just cozy company, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. I would love to host your dog or cat in my home and make them feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and can plan most days around pet care responsibilities. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and check-ins fit naturally into my routine. I am organized, reliable, and make sure pets receive attention, exercise, and consistency throughout the week, including mornings, evenings, and weekends when needed. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s habits, preferences, and routines before care begins. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I maintain a clean environment, secure doors and outdoor spaces, avoid unsafe interactions, and provide attentive supervision. My goal is for pets to feel comfortable, relaxed, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind.
About: Hi! We're Ashley & Lili (or, LD - the D is for dog). I've had dogs for over 20 years from puppies to super seniors. Lili is a trained therapy dog who volunteers with elders and children regularly. Handling dogs with medical needs is no issue for us. We'd be honored to host your dog for some fun and new friends! I work 100% remotely and have flexibility for walks and playtime during the day as needed/wanted. I live one block off Gantry State Park for a nice long walks along the waterfront and a "woof top" in my building for dogs to run and play! You'll always receive pup-dates of our adventures during the day. I'll treat your dog as I treat my own and support sloppy kisses and snuggles! Dogs are allowed on furniture and wherever makes them happiest in the house - even if it's on my lap for the entire day.
“Amazing experience with Mimi’s dog sitter! They were caring, reliable, and kept us updated the whole time. Mimi was happy and well taken care of. Highly recommend!”

“Connor was a great sitter! He was friendly and my dog Phoenix warmed up to him quickly at our initial meet and greet. Drop off/pick up were a breeze. I appreciated that Connor gave me a heads up about last minute maintenance noise at his place that may cause Phoenix stress. I would use Connor as a sitter again!”

“We always feel at ease knowing Heather is taking such great care of our girl, Max. She is always sending us pics to let us know she’s in good hands ❤️”
