10. Marybeth F.
“***FIRST TIME ROVER USER**** When my normal sitter became unavailable, unexpectantly, I had no idea what to do. I was at the point of not going away on my vacation because it was about a week away from leaving. This was my first time using Rover, and my anxiety was through the roof about the entire process and the idea of a stranger coming into my home. I chose Marybeth primarily based upon location, her photos of her and her pets and her age/experience. Upon meeting Marybeth, her overall kindness and genuine, sweet, friendly personality put me at ease immediately. She listened attentively to what my needs were and my animals routines, without trying to change or judge anything. She was promptly responsive to all of my communication prior to leaving for my trip and the duration as well. When meeting (2) of my (3) fur babies kitties (only because 1 is a scaredy cat and won't come out for anyone really), you could tell immediately that she has a love of cats and taking care of them appropriately and lovingly. I left instructions for her and she followed all of my requests (even non animal related, like bringing in my mail and checking on my refrigerator door that pops open). She was even kind enough to check on my hamster even though that was not part of the animals requested to watch. Every day while I was gone, she was on time, left me a happy little note about the status of everything and pictures of all my babies. Personally, the fear/worry/anxiety about leaving my babies as well as just someone coming in my home was enormous, and Marybeth really put that to ease for me. (I know I already mentioned that, but I figured for anyone reading this, who is on the fence about hiring through Rover). I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, kind, sweet person to take care of your precious family members while you are away. She even returned my key promptly upon my return. Thank you to her again. I am forever grateful for her.”
11. Hailey A.
“Hailey watched our very velcro and very muscular staffy mix and followed all directions well. Hailey was prompt and friendly. Zale felt safe and is tired out! Will rebook!”
12. Anna M.
“Anna came in and saved the day for a last minute visit, highly recommended”
13. Hannah Elizabeth T.
“I've know Hannah for a couple of years now, and in the past 8 months or so whenever I am out of town I have her look after my bearded collie Brighton. She has never let me down, and has taken great care of Brighton. He gets very excited whenever she comes to visit, and her dog Nellie plays very well with him.”
14. Tiffany M.
“Tiffany is amazing! Her love for animals shines through. She is very responsive with communication, obviously understands animals and what they need and goes above an beyond to make them feel comfortable and secure. Thank you Tiffany for taking such good care of Finley!”
15. Emily V.
“They did a get job. I was really nervous because we are new to Albany and this was the first time leaving our pets with someone who wasn’t a family member, and I hate leaving them but my cats were definitely well taken care of. Emily followed all our instructions for each cat and they were safe, health, and happy when I came home. We will definitely be requesting their service the next time we have to leave our little cats!”
16. Aleysha v.
About: Hi I’m Aleysha! I have 2 cats and unfortunately not enough time for a dog but I love spending time with dogs and taking them on walks and to parks! I work normal office hours but am available outside of that. I am available before, after & on the weekends to care for your pet. The pet always comes first. I want them to be comfortable with me, and me be comfortable with them. I am energetic and ready to work.
17. Alessia R.
“Alessia was wonderful with our shy kitty! Willow came out on the second visit and felt confident enough to come out each visit after! We are so happy that she was able to get love and cuddles while we were gone! Alessia was communicative and sent great pictures! Clearly an animal lover and cares about her clients! Will definitely be booking her services again!”
