1. Kacie M.
“She was amazing. Kept us posted on our cat daily with great pics & videos. We came home to a very happy cat. We will definitely use her again to watch our cat.”
2. Alison R.
“Alison has been communicative, responsive and flexible to our needs. Most importantly she has been very attentive and capable to the opposite spectrum of an energetic young pup and an almost blind senior dog. We're spending the summer here from out of town and it is reassuring to know we can count on Alison when we want to go on a longer hike, explore, take guests around and those times when we can't take both dogs with us. We're happy to have found her.”
3. Anne C.
“We highly recommend Anne!! She really went the extra mile taking care of our sweet but slightly shy kitty Jelly. We got lots of updates and photos from their visits, and Anne spent some extra time with Jelly to give her the chance to warm up. By the end of their time together Jelly was really comfortable with Anne. You can tell she really cares about animals and did a great job for us! We look forward to having you take care of Jelly again in the future, Anne! Thank you for everything!”
4. Christina M.
About: I have feeding, walking, playing and poop cleaning experience. I have been around small and large, young and old dogs most of my life. I know all are different in their needs but they all need love and I can provide that. I have no other job so I have all the time needed for your pet. I'm available days, nights, weekends and emergency care available. I haven't had a pet not like me yet. I can follow any routine already set in place. I can give extra time and love to any animal. I will not take the care of your member of the family lightly.
5. Angela J.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats my whole life. I have experience with potty training, walking dogs, and administering medications. I also have senior animal experience. I can do most evenings and weekends. I prefer to go to the pets home for their own comfort. Pet care is part of my daily routine. I prefer to take care of the pet in the comfort of their own home, where everything is familiar and less anxiety for the pet as well.
6. Kristina C.
“Katt watched my two dogs and one ferret. She was wonderful. It was great to have a farent (farent parent) watch my little guy. Most people don't really know what they are doing with exotics. It was cool to hear she has experience with snakes too. I didn't need her for that, but my neighbor did so it was super handy. Very sweet girl.”
7. Jordin S.
“Jordin did a great job with my cat! I love that she sent me photos each time she visited my house so I knew that my cat was being well taken care of.”
8. Julia M.
“Thank you so much for your drop in visits, the ladies loved you and I appreciate how responsive and flexible you were! Would absolutely work with you again!”
9. Haley Z.
“Haley went above and beyond! A third party had left a vital door open and my cat ventured out - Haley let me know immediately, did all the leg work of contacting Rover's support line, got a fb post going, spent a ton of extra time poking around hiding spots outside and even went out and purchased tuna to coax her back home. It was a scary experience but I'm so glad Haley was there for it and that my cat friend is safely home thanks to her efforts with her daught. First time using Rover and glad I did, the support the company offers in this kind of situation is spot on and beyond what I would have expected!”
10. Ariel W.
“I was really nervous about leaving my 18 year old cat with someone else but Ariel put me completely at ease. She was so kind and caring with my cat and completely comfortable administering medication and following special feeding instructions. She also sent me great pictures of my pet each day and was very communicative about how things were going. When I arrived home my cat was content and well cared for. I would highly recommend her for any pet care situation. Thank you Ariel”
11. Giuliana C.
“I had friends over for President’s day weekend who brought their puppy (Archie) to play with my puppy (Gerard). We had made plans to ski the whole weekend but didn’t plan well enough on who will take care of our babies. So we signed into Rover and checked our options. After reading Giuliana’s profile we decided that she was the best choice for us. We messaged her a bit later at night, but she responded immediately and agreed to come very early the next day. She came a few minutes before our set time and was completely flexible when we tried to extend a bit of her stay because of traffic. We came home to two very happy puppies who had been walked a couple of times, fed and played with the whole day. I highly recommend Giuliana and will be using her again.”
12. Rose G.
“Rose cared for our new kitty while we were away. Her communication and care were both excellent. We had not worries at all. We hope to have her watch our kitty again and give her the highest of recommendations.”
13. Maria C.
“Maria was great dog sitting our new puppy! She was flexible and on time, and provided updates throughout. She clearly loves dogs and our puppy clearly had fun!”
14. Bella G.
“Bella and Cameron are such diligent and responsible cat sitters! They sent very cute updates and photos while we were out of town, about all the activities they were doing with our cat. We will definitely be booking with them again!”
15. Beth M.
About: I have been pet sitting for friends and neighbors since I was a child. I have had my own dog for 4 years and know how hard it can be to find reliable pet sitters in the area. Whether you are heading out on vacation or need someone to give your pet extra exercise, I'm happy to help! I have a nervous and reactive dog, so I am comfortable with gentle positive reinforcement and avoiding triggers. I can adapt care to make sure your pet is comfortable and not stressed. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule. I am very available mornings and evenings, and have some flexibility at lunch for short visits. My weekends are wide open and I'd love to take care of your pet! I will treat your home with the same respect and cleanliness that I hope house sitters would treat mine. I can follow whatever rules you normally have with your pet and will do everything to maintain their schedule and sense of normalcy.

“Simba fell in love with Ilia immediately!!! So happy !”
17. Gena Z.
“Gena is a literal angel and is always my first choice when I need any help with my pets. She is a quiet and calm person who not only easily connects with animals but finds joy in spending time with them. Last time she house sat for me she spent time trying to figure out what novelty tricks my dogs can do which they loved and she found hysterical. She is also incredibly tidy, every time she has house sat for me the house has honestly looked better when I got home. My pets and I are very grateful for Gena”

20. Alexis B.
“Alexis took care of our 2 cats while we were out of town. My husband and I were nervous leaving our kitties with someone we didn't know. However, Alexis was very communicative with my husband and me. She sent many photos and texts about how our cats were doing. We also spoke to Alexis on the phone during our absence from the cats. Additionally, Alexis is a Veterinary Technician. The kitties seemed just fine when we returned from our trip.”
