“Amazing care to our fur babies! They love her and she takes the best photos of our babies through the visits which makes us always feel more at ease and can enjoy our trips.”
“Britany was wonderful. She was available very last minute and took good care of our 3 cats and was even willing to feed a community cat that shows up. We would hire her again if needed.”
“Yolena was incredibly helpful and left robust notes at the end of her visit that left me feeling sure that my baby was well-taken care of. She communicated well and even helped with mail without being asked. Would highly recommend Yolena to any pet parent!”
“Maggie is awesome! Super friendly and sweet. I scheduled her for drop ins while I was away for the weekend. She had great communication, sent lots of pics, and my dogs loved her. I felt super comfortable having her in my home while I was gone. Definitely will be booking with her again!”
“She was amazing!!! She was very caring for the cats, and she explained very thoroughly to us the process of cat sitting. Our cats are very shy so they couldn't say thank you or even say Hi but they are grateful for her as well.”
“I am so grateful that I found Kayla on Rover. We had a meet and greet and my animals really took to her. She has a very calming and gentle energy that really connected with my two dogs and 2 cats. She agreed to do a drop in visit for me while I was out of town for an extended day. She tidied up after my stubborn Frenchie, took care of their food needs, got them some sunshine and exercise and sent some adorable photos. I am so happy and have already set up another sitting with Kayla.”
“Heavyn did a fantastic job watching my 2 dogs and 2 cats. All of them took to her immediately and I could tell she is truly an animal lover. She provided updates with photos and video for each visit. I highly recommend Heavyn!”
“Shaelyn is awesome! So thankful for how she cared for my kitties while I was away- I was slow to message and she read my mind with some of the things I forgot to mention ahead of time (e.g. adding extra litter to the litter box). Reliable and 100% will book again!!”
