Cat Sitting in Alvord

“Zach did a wonderful job taking care of my kitties and mice! Though he didn't have a lot of experience with mice, he jumped right in and was ready to learn! He was reliable and even came back over when my lock wasn't working correctly to make sure my animals weren't alone! Thank you!”

“Tilly was great to work with! We will definitely be using her services again! She was easy to coordinate with and kept me updated with pictures and texts of my kitties !! We even had to add an extra day last minute due to travel and she was very open and willing to help!”

“I appreciate the love and care Breanna provided my two kitties while I was away. I felt very comfortable leaving them in her care which included administering insulin injections to my special needs cat. Thanks Breanna!”

“Amanda was awesome!!! Honey thoroughly enjoyed her company while I was away and will definitely be hiring Amanda in the future. Even when there was a snow storm, she evaluated the situation and decided on the best coarse of action. 10/10”

“From the very beginning, Sydney S. has had a natural, undeniable connection with animals—especially dogs. Having grown up with pets in her life since birth, caring for and understanding them has always come as second nature to her. Sydney doesn't just “watch” pets—she nurtures, comforts, and forms bonds with them in a way that is truly remarkable. Even as a young girl, Sydney’s compassion and maturity stood out. She became one of the youngest volunteers at the Aberdeen Area Humane Society, where her dedication and care earned her the well-deserved honor of Volunteer of the Month. Her commitment was not just about showing up—it was about showing up with her whole heart. In high school, Sydney rescued her first dog, a moment that spoke volumes about her courage, empathy, and unwavering belief that every animal deserves a safe, loving home. That spirit of kindness has continued to shine through in everything she does. Since junior high, Sydney has provided loving and reliable dog-sitting services for countless families. Whether it’s caring for elderly dogs with special needs or energetic puppies who need constant attention and affection, Sydney brings a deep sense of responsibility, patience, and joy to each pet she looks after. Pet owners trust her not only because she is dependable, but because she treats every animal as if it were her own. Sydney S. is more than a pet-sitter or animal lover—she is a true caregiver, advocate, and friend to animals. Anyone who places their pet in her care can rest easy knowing they are being loved and looked after by someone with a rare and genuine gift.”

About: Hi there! 👋 My name’s Brady, and I’m a reliable, tidy, and animal-loving house sitter. I don’t have any pets of my own right now, which is exactly why I love house sitting—it's a great way to spend time with animals and give them all the attention they deserve. I’ve recently house sat for friends and absolutely loved it. Whether it's playtime, walks, or just some company during the day, I’m happy to step in and make sure your pets feel loved and comfortable while you're away. Most of my work is remote, so I’m home a lot and can give pets consistent attention throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, which makes it easy for me to work around your pet's routines—feeding, walks, meds, etc. When I’m staying in someone’s home, I treat it with the same respect I’d want someone to treat mine. I keep things tidy, follow your instructions, and make sure your pets feel safe and at ease. I send regular updates and pet selfies (please tell me if I'm annoying) so you’re never left wondering how things are going.

About: My significant other and I live in a house with 3 dogs. We take our dogs (who are more like our kids)on a walk in our neighborhood or fenced in backyard and let them run around at least twice a day! Our dogs are spoiled and loved as they should be! We play ball and snuggle and they sleep with us too:) We'd love to love your pet while you're away! I work part time at WagZone dog day care so I have a lot of free time for my own pups. I love walks, hikes on our land outside of time or just fetch time in the yard. Fenced in yard allows dogs to run freely all day with a dog door to a sheltered garage. My dogs get along with all other souls.

“Mackenzie has watched my dog a couple of times when we had to go out of town. My dog (Woofy) gets depressed and doesn’t eat when we have to leave her home alone overnight so Mackenzie would go over and hangout with her for the night. Woofy loves her so much she would get very excited when she would come over and wouldn’t leave her side.”

“She’s the best! We love getting pictures when we’re away from home. We can tell the pups love her!”

About: I’ve grown up loving and caring for animals! I’ve been around dogs since I was a baby and had many different breeds growing up. From a akita chow to a cocker spaniel to a yorkie. I have a passion for animals and would love to open my own rescue one day! Thank you for your consideration! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of flexible time! I also have my own transportation and i’m willing to travel! Thank you! I will care for your pets like they are my own! I’m detail oriented and like to go above and beyond for animals and their owners!

“I couldn't be happier with my experience using Rover! My sitter was incredibly kind, professional, and provided regular updates with pictures of my pup. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in great hands. When I returned, she was happy, well-cared for, and had clearly been treated like family. I highly recommend Rover to anyone looking for trustworthy and loving pet care!"”
