Christina did a wonderful job taking care of my two dogs during the holidays this year. We arrived home after a week away and my babies were happy, well fed, and relaxed. I feel so happy to have found Christina. I will be booking her again!

Victoria is awesome with my dog Toby! He loves the extra (and long!) walks he gets with her. She’s great about sending lots of picture updates and setting up Toby’s meals which require some extra steps since he’s a picky eater.

Tetiana is always there for me when I need help with my dog. With my crazy, unpredictable schedule it’s hard to plan everything ahead of time. Even if it’s last minute, I can count on her! By booking her for the entire week ahead of time makes sure that my baby will be taken care of!

Julia is my roommate and has a 6 year old dog who she’s raised since he was a puppy. She loves all animals and is extremely responsible. She is very reliable and you never have to worry about communicating with her and trusting that your pet is safe with her. I am a long time Rover sitter myself and would absolutely recommend Julia to others if I ever couldn’t take a booking.

About: I have had pets since I was little and have helped raise them. This sparked my interest in pet care. I love to help out other fellow animal lovers with their pets. I am currently a student at Pace University and am usually busy with studies, so pet care is a perfect flexible fit into my schedule. Being an animal lover I know a bunch about pet needs. I able to catch on quick to what your animal needs, and will be there to help you as an animal parent.

I highly recommend Natalie as a pet caregiver for Rover. Natalie has always been incredibly responsible, reliable, and loving towards furry friends. She takes the time to understand the unique needs of each pet and goes above and beyond to make sure they feel comfortable and happy. Anyone would feel at ease leaving their dog with Natalie and know that they are in excellent hands. I would recommend Natalie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring.

I couldn’t rant and rave about Victoria more. Not only is she personally the sweetest person ever. But he love for my car Fred was above and beyond. She was very communicative during all visits and even went above and beyond and cleaned and kept Fred’s area nice and tidy! I even have referred her to other people already and they all have said raving things as well. I’m so blessed I found her!

Kaitlyn was so amazing with my kitties!! I would consider myself a fairly concerned pet parent and I always worry about my babies when I’m away, but Kaitlyn made me feel soo much better. She is extremely kind and conscientious and gives very detailed notes and photos! It is clear that she is very thoughtful in her visits and a true animal lover! Thank you!!

Steven took amazing care of my dog and cat while I was away for the weekend! I recommend him 100% for any pet care needs. Steven came over beforehand to meet my shy dog and to pet my cat with a big personality—he was so respectful and made sure he understood their routines. While I was gone Steven sent adorable pictures of my fur babies and he really understood their needs. Steven was great with my senior dog who really needs a gentle person to take care of him, and he even made sure he got his daily vitamins. Steven also made my cat feel loved and cared for (he’s a needy kitty). It’s a relief to know that Steven can care my pets when I leave town—he’s professional, courteous, and a kind person to work with.
