Amanda was fabulous!!! She knew so much about my Jewel's special personality and needs due to her own experiences. Her drop ins were timely. And she even have us some tips to help with walking. Her photos and updates have my daughter and I something to look forward to each time and we will definitely use her again in the future.

This was our first time using services through Rover and we are so glad we did! Cat was absolutely amazing through the entire process keeping us well informed at each drop in. She was incredibly patient with our fur babies and their unique personalities, even befriending our shy boy in record time. Thank you so much, Cat!

This was my first time using Rover services. Kyle was fantastic! My pet was well taken care of, my home was just as I left it and the communication from Kyle during my absence was perfect. Not only will I use Rover again; fingers crossed that Kyle will have openings on his schedule for me.

Cassie did an excellent job with my two kittens. She provided daily updates with photos which were awesome to see. Very dependable and was more than happy to make a last minute check in when I had some scheduling issues. 10/10 recommend.

Thank you so much, Maria! Maria was a fantastic sitter for my two cats. She did drop in visits while we were away for a day, and she followed instructions perfectly, and came at the times we agreed. She played with my cats, and sent me lots of pictures, where my cats looked happy. We came home to two perfectly normal cats and house. Having her made my day better, because I could relax knowing that my boys were taken care of. I will definitely contact her again, next time we are out. Thank you so much again, Maria!

Alexas was a wonderful sitter for my pets while I was away for the holidays! She was able to accommodate a last-minute meet and greet, where she met my cats and took notes on their personalities/feeding schedule. She was very communicative during her drop in visits and even offered to water my plants! I would definitely recommend trusting her with your space and fur babies!

Second time we've used Mallory. Our babies are well looked after, and nearly as important - we are constantly reassured and have great communication and updates while we're away!! Puts our mind at ease to enjoy our time away, when the pups can't go!

I highly recommend Veronica for anyone with animals - but especially those who have big crazy dogs and are nervous with leaving their pups with folks who might not be used to handling big crazy dogs! She is awesome and is very communicative. She goes above and beyond to make sure your baby is loved and cared for while you’re gone!!
