“Katey provided great care for our cat while we were away for the holidays. She cuddled and played with him to his heart’s content. She was on time every day and sent many pictures and updates to ease our minds. Definitely recommend!”
2. Haley Jo C.
“Haley Jo was fantastic! We felt very comfortable with her when she came to do the meet & greet and our first impression was spot on. We are so fortunate to have found her. Luna (our cat) liked her right away. We got great pictures after every visit and a detailed report about the visit. I would definitely recommend Haley Jo, and will definitely have her watch Luna again!”
3. Julia L.
“Julia was great at caring for our pups. She did an hour long drop in and made sure they had some time outside and our pup was not in his kennel while my wife was working. Thank you for taking care of them and helping us out.”
4. Lindsay W.
“Lindsay was outstanding! I love how she brought a little lobster toy the first time she met my cat. Lady Grey was taken good care of. Lindsay went above and beyond and sent me lots of pictures. :)”

“Annie is the best! She took great care of our dog, Hank. He loves going on walks with her, and we appreciate being updated while we’re away. We definitely recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent dog walker.”
8. Candace O.
“Candace was great at communicating while I was away and navigated the complexities of entering my condo building with ease. I’m happy Cleo was in good hands.”
9. Julia K.
“Julia looked after my cat, Bastet aka Bas, for 3 weeks. It was the first time I had left Bas alone so wasn't sure how she would respond. Julia did an excellent job. Bas was shy at first and would hide, but Julia was patient, after a couple of visits Bas not only stopped hiding but trusted Julia enough to show her belly. That photo told me I had nothing to worry about. My apartment was neat when I returned and she even watered my plants. Thanks, Julia. Highly recommend her and will definitely ask her to sit with Bas again.”
10. Priscilla G.
“Hendrix warmed up so quickly and I felt very comfortable that he was in great hands. Thanks again for taking care of him!”
11. Melissa W.
“Melissa was a wonderful cat sitter. She took the time to meet our two cats and get instructions on how to care for them. She was always on time and accommodating. It was my first time using rover and I had a really good experience. My one cat is very shy toward people and Melissa was patient with her and was able to play with her by the end of our trip. If I go out of town again I would book Melissa without hesitation.”
12. Carla V.
“Carla took great care of my 2 senior cats! I'd definitely book her services again!”
13. Jackiellen B.
“Few people are animal people, truly animal lovers, Jackiellen is one of us. I’ve known Jackiellen for nine years and I trust her with my cats and dogs, no one else. I’m confident Jackiellen will do whatever is needed for any animal in her charge, whether it be extra loving or an emergency trip to the veterinarian. It takes an animal lover to know one, I am and Jackiellen is. We are fortunate indeed to have her on overwatch of our four legged critters.”
14. Viva L.
“Absolutely wonderful! Viva is attentive, kind, considerate and takes my puppy for great, engaging walks! My puppy loves her and enjoys the walk break while I’m at work. Viva takes pictures and videos of my puppy that I love receiving!! 10/10 would recommend her for any dog walking needs :)”

“Andrew took excellent care of my dog! He is reliable, consistent and I never have to worry about my dogs safety when he is taking care of him!”
16. Daniel W.
“Dan was reliable as always! Thanks for taking care of my pups!”
17. Amanda L.
“Amanda was great! She is very responsible, prompt, detail oriented and my cats loved her. I have 3 pretty outgoing cats, each with their own quirks, and it can be a lot when they are all hungry and want to play. She was great with all of them, got to know each of them, and spent a little one on one time with each despite time constraints. I will definitely hire her again when I travel.”
18. Jonathan G.
About: Got it! How about: "With over a 20 years of pet sitting experience and a lifelong connection with animals, I'm dedicated to offering loving and trustworthy care. Growing up on a farm and always being around dogs has given me a natural affinity for pets. I'm experienced in basic grooming I also have had dogs that needed administering medication, including care for diabetic dogs. You can count on me for all your pet-sitting needs." Full availability since I work from home and make my own schedule. I will always put you fury family member needs and well being to the top priority. Will be fencing in the yard having a place for them to play in they will also be taken out for long walks weather permitting. There is plenty of space for them to play I the house. I do have the ability to separate them if the need arises.
19. Bret L.
“Bret did an absolutely incredible job taking care of my pets while I was away. My cats require a bit more upkeep than most others and she went above and beyond to provide them with the care they needed. Getting consistent updates and fun pictures helped reassure me that they were in good hands and it showed how much my cats grew to trust her in such a short period of time. I couldn’t recommend Bret enough!”
20. MacKenzie G.
“MacKenzie watched my puppy Walter while I traveled for work. Walter LOVED her and MacKenzie was amazing about sending through lots of updates. When I got back Walter slept for HOURS because MacKenzie did such an amazing job at playing with him and keeping him busy, which is hard for a herding mix puppy!! MacKenzie's obvious adoration for dogs made me so much more comfortable and trusting of her with Walter, I knew that he would get tons of attention and love from her while I couldn't be with him! Couldn't recommend MacKenzie enough!”
