1. Carolyn A.
“Carolyn was great! She loved Oppy, sent pictures of her playing with him daily, and he was happy as could be when I came back! She was also very flexible and understanding with the timing of when to come see Oppy and some confusion due to me having old kitten food still out. I really appreciate her communicativeness and understanding as I guided her to the correct food to use. Would definitely recommend as a cat sitter!”

“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.”
8. Annie C.
“Annie is the best person I could ever ask for to watch my cat when I’m gone. She’s super experienced with cats and particularly FIV+ cats which reassured me. Not only would she go above and beyond with food, water, and litter maintenance, but she spent time cuddling and playing with my cat as if he were her own. 100000% recommend her for your cat”
