Monica was fabulous ! My dogs warmed up to her very quickly. From an owner side, i was very comfortable because Monica left detailed notes and pictures for each drop in visit.

Kassy has been helping taking care of our animals for years. She has bathed and walked my pitbull. Her help with our foster animals has been invaluable. She has also watched our two cats. We will definitely be booking her through Rover!

My dogs and cat were in such good hands. Highly recommend him. Will use again and again. Was in another country and he was so patient with my payment issue. I didn’t have to worry even at 3700 miles away.

Troy has been nothing but amazing, not only with our dog but with everything he does! Our pup is a bit people selective and moose was comfortable in no time due to Troy being patient and knowledgeable about how to handle a more reactive dog. My husband and I would 100% recommend him to take care of your furry friend too! He is always on time and makes sure he leaves the house cleaner then when he got there!

Lisa was fantastic with our kitties! We came home to two very happy and well-cared cats. Prior to booking, Lisa met us and our cats at our apartment and was very attentive to us describe our cats routines and behaviors. During the booking Lisa provided detailed updates and pictures from her drop-ins to leave our minds at ease while we were gone for the holidays. We highly recommend her for any of your cat-sitting needs and will definitely be using Lisa again for future drop-in needs for our cats!

Caron will love your dog and give you peace of mind while you are gone. My dog liked her right away. Caron is a laid back, happy dog caretaker. Caron followed my instructions and gave my dog excellent care. I highly recommend her and will use her again. You can trust Caron to come into your home, care for your dog(s) and know your pups are getting the best care possible. She goes to extra work to make sure your dog is happy and comfortable.

Megan was fantastic! She was a lifesaver as one of our cats requires insulin injections twice a day but no one would board her. Megan was communicative (sent pictures with each check in) and detail-oriented as the directions I left were quite lengthy. She even brought in a package that was delivered while we were gone. I will definitely book Megan again!
