“Sheri is so good with our cat Gucci! I always know he will be happy and well cared for while I'm away. She follows his special diet, and also feeds our wildlife in the backyard! Thank you Sheri!”
“Jaimie was wonderful taking care of our cat and the house while we were out of town. She contacted us daily to let us know that everything was ok. She was thorough in asking questions to help care for our cat. She’s very reliable and we had a good piece of mind that things were taken care of. We will definitely use her again!”
“Maddie is my go-to sitter for my kitty Emma. She is really responsive and on top of things, and clearly loves and cares for every pet she comes into contact with. Was really relieved to have her while on a week long trip. Everyone should book Maddie for peace of mind for your beloved fur baby!”
“My kitten stayed a week. Iwonka took fabulous care of him. She sent pictures and updates daily. When I picked him up she also had a written review of item my kitten liked to play with. I would definitely recommend Iwonka to anyone who is looking for a cat sitter.”
“Many thanks to Janet for taking such good care of my kitties! I was happy to receive her updates and cute pictures and I knew my boyzz were in good hands. A great first experience!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. Even though I’ve never owned one personally, I’ve always been the first to step into ‘owner mode’ whenever a puppy or dog needed love, attention, or comfort. Animals have a special place in my heart, and I genuinely enjoy giving them affection, patience, and care. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away :) I’m currently working part-time and also in school, so my weekly schedule can vary. However, I’m typically available on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, and I often have open availability during weekdays as well. I’m flexible and can usually adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions closely and keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible. I’m gentle, patient, and very attentive to each animal’s comfort level. I make sure food, water, and potty breaks are handled safely, and I always keep doors and gates secure. I also send updates and photos during every visit so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away :))
“Brooklyn was a real hero for me, when I needed a last minute pet sitter. I knew her from outside Rover and she knew my dogs. They warmed up to her right away and I could tell from the pictures they were happy she was there. They were fed, walked, played with and received lots of cuddles.”
“Amanda has been great very reliable and excellent communication she lets out my dog birdie 5 days a week and it’s such a relief knowing my dog is getting some exercise and attention while I’m at work. I’ve noticed birdie isn’t as hyper when I get home from work I will continue my service with Amanda as long as she is available thanks again Amanda”
“Marie was wonderful. My cat Tony needed an insulin shot daily and she had no problem administering that. She sent cute daily pictures which were fun to see. I would highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve always been an animal girl of all kinds, but dogs and cats are my LIFE!!! I have a dog and cat myself. I have SO much love to give, and i’m SO excited to meet and get to know more fur babies. I have a lot of experience and am very responsible. I have worked with animals of all sizes and different temperaments and no animal is off limits! I’m ready to give all my care and cuddles to your animal of all shapes, sizes and ages like they are my own :) I put my all into pet sitting, meeting new owners and animals fills my heart. I am loyal to my clients and pets, a lot of people i’ve worked with through Rover I still consistently watch for years! I’ve worked with animals in multiple different ways. But currently I am a dog groomer looking to give my care on the side! I wont be around all hours of the day for your pet because I do work during the day so your dog will have to be comfortable being alone for however long my shift that day is, but as soon as my shift is over I will return to your pet asap with all my love to give !! With enough time in advance, i’m hoping to find the time to care for your animal and help as much as I can! I am comfortable with pretty much anything as long as there is open communication and understanding! My #1 priority is your pets safety and happiness! I am comfortable with staying overnight, stopping in for visits, anything you need i’m sure we can make it happen with communicating each other’s boundaries and ideas!
About: I have had cats for over 10 years. I love them; they are my family! I have experience with cats of different ages. I also have experience administering medicine, both topically and orally. I love meeting new cats and I cannot wait to meet your fur-babies! I own a bakery so I make my own hours. I work most days, but can easily come before, after, or during work if needed for a check in! I will adapt my visits to best suit your cat. Do they like to be left alone? Fine with me! I’ll see if they’re doing okay and let them be. Do they like attention? Even better! I will give them so many pets! I want them to be as comfortable as possible!
“Natalie has been absolutely fantastic with my four dogs. She handles them all with no problem at all. She is responsible and flexible with schedule changes and that has been a big help as my work schedule does fluctuate. The dogs just love her and we feel very fortunate to have her as our daily pet sitter. I would strongly recommend Natalie if you are looking for peace of mind when it comes to having someone trustworthy to care for your pets.”
About: I’ve had several pets from the time I was 5 years old. My most recent was an elderly dog we have for 16 wonderful years. I truly know how important it is to have compassionate care that you can trust when you’re away from your pets. I utilized this service and since my pup has crossed the rainbow bridge, I want to provide the same love for your pet that others shown mine I work full-time as a surgeon but I am off every weekend from Friday evening at 4:00 PM through Monday morning at 6:00 AM. I would love to help with weekend care for your pets. I am open to watching them during the week as long as they are ok to be alone during the working daytime hours I would prefer to keep your pet in your home in their own environment. I found that my previous dog(s) did wonderful in their familiar surroundings
