“Kathryn was eager to meet my boys prior to our trip. This puts everyone at ease. It’s something I look for when choosing a new pet care provider. Kathryn followed all my instructions and was communicative all during our trip. My boys were happy and content when we got home.”

“Chloe is amazing! My super shy cat warmed up to her and was waiting for her at the door by the end of her visit. I would recommend her 10/10 to anyone. She provided peace of mind and was thorough with her photos and communication. Thank you Chloe!!”

“Kelli did a meet and greet the day before and she was very nice, I was happy to find someone I could trust with my cats. She kept open communication the day of the visit to make sure she had all the info she needed. I would contact Kelli again next time I need help with my kitties.”

“Camila was great with Tilly! She showed up on time and took awesome care of her. When I got home, Tilly was super calm and happy, so I know she was in good hands. I’ll definitely be using Camila again. Highly recommend!”

“Alyssa was phenomenal in every way. Responsive, reliable, kind, and trustworthy. I cannot recommend her highly enough -- she took EXCELLENT care of our two cats, and I fully trusted her in our home. It made our vacation more enjoyable knowing our boys were in such good hands. Thank you!”
“Jenn became very valuable during my recent trip when the other sitter did not follow directions and left my cats without enough food. She went to the store and purchased what I needed without hesitation. Very reliable.”

“Yvette was awesome! Took such good care of my 3 little fur babies. Definitely went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and I was in the loop with pictures and updates. One million percent would book again! Thank you!!!! 🐾🐾🐾”


“Erick did a great job taking care of our cat following my wife's exacting food prep standards over several days while we were away. We had an intro meeting ahead of our planned visits, and after that we had an unexpected change of plans and he was able to accommodate a different schedule on short notice. He was on time, responsive, and dependable. He played with the cat, fed him, changed his water, and cleaned his litterbox. Erick also went above and beyond, ie he brought in packages left on the porch and pulled in the trash container from the curb after the weekly pickup. Highly recommended.”

“To be honest, we were a little afraid to leave our two kitties in the hands of a stranger when we considered Rover. But we were so lucky to have Suzanne as our catsitter. She's absolutely wonderful! Coming back from our holidays we found our kitties happier than ever! Thanks Suzanne!”

“Raquel was communicative and reliable when we needed a last-minute drop-in sitter for our cat over the holiday weekend. During the meet & greet, she was very interested in learning about Monty’s habits and needs. While we were away, Raquel sent updates and photos each day, and helped with an unexpected package delivery. It was great to know that Monty was in such good hands - we highly recommend Raquel!”

“Melissa was amazing with our 2 cats! They warmed up to her so quickly and she snapped some great photos of them too really capturing their personalities. Great communication and gave us such peace of mind while we were away from our girls for the week. Thank you again Melissa!”

“Matthew and Christianna were excellent — punctual, communicative, and sent regular photo updates. Our dog was very comfortable and not stressed while we were away. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and a clean, tidy house. For us, it was such a relief to be away and not worry about a thing. Highly recommended!”

“Lisbeth is a great person with an awesome heart! She takes such good care of our pup. She’s great at communication and she looks out for our pups well being. Nothing but great things to say about Lisbeth. Thank you Lisbeth!!!”

About: I have 2 dogs, young and big, old and small. I’ve helped train and care for both so I am very capable of walking, caring for, and sitting for dogs and pets-alike. I take care for my own dogs daily yet my schedule is very flexible throughout the year. I am available all throughout the week and on most weekends. I will make sure to entertain your pet yet respect the rules of your home by treating it as my own. No roughhousing or jumping around allowed!
“I feel comfortable leaving my dog at home when I know Peter is taking care of her. He really takes his time with her and gives her a lot of attention. I highly recommend him as a pet sitter.”
