Cat Sitting in Ashville

“We had an excellent experience with Mariah. This was my first time leaving my cats in the hands of a pet sitter so I was a bit nervous. During the week, Mariah sent updates of how the cats were doing as well as photos of each kitty. I couldn’t be happier”

“Emily did a great job. My dog was so happy to have someone come to her home rather than having to go to a loud kennel with other dogs she doesn’t know. We would definitely recommend Emily to anyone who is looking for care for their fur-baby.”

“Jeanette was a fantastic drop-in sitter for our two cats! She went above and beyond to share photos with us and communicate while we were gone. We will be booking her again and I recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter!”

About: Hi! I go by Kat and since I was ten I've been around animals, from living on a farm with three Great Pyrenees, four Australian Shephards, two Pugs, and two chihuahuas and numerous litters and a cat rescue of twenty-six cats to my current situation of three dogs and six cats. I have also owned rats, mice, rabbits, and a gecko, so I have experience with all sorts of pets. Aside from what I own, I have cared for cockatiels, doves,geckos, a lorikeet, great danes, and pittbulls. I also worked at a vet office for a year before I started college, and seven months at a cat hospital in Maine, along with six months of professional cat boarding. Currently I'm unemployed but am looking for a night shift part time job! I work part time nights only and am available all weekend, Friday through Sunday, full time, so I will have plenty of time to ensure your pets will be well cared for! I am very flexible with how to care for pets, from crate training to leashed walks or free roaming. My animals are a mixture of them all, crate trained when guests are over and free-roaming during the day when I'm outside with them.

About: With 15 years of hands-on pet care experience—including a decade caring for a cat with Cerebellar Hypoplasia (CH) and an elderly dog who required specialized support—I’m comfortable meeting a wide range of pet needs. I provide reliable, attentive care such as walks, feeding, playtime, and close adherence to established routines. These experiences have shaped me into a patient, compassionate, and dependable sitter who truly treats every pet like my own. I work from home in a flexible position, allowing me to adjust my schedule around both my own pets and the pets I care for through Rover. Being home throughout the day means your pet will receive consistent supervision, timely walks, feedings, potty breaks, and plenty of attention and companionship—never long stretches alone. I care for pets in my home by keeping their routines as normal as possible with regular meals, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. Since I work from home with a flexible schedule, pets are rarely left alone and get plenty of supervision and companionship. I aim to create a calm, comfortable environment where pets feel safe and at home.

“She arrived a little early so we could go over Ollie’s routine and instructions, which I really appreciated. She was also very friendly, polite, and easy to talk to. She followed instructions, such as giving Ollie his enrichment toy and taking him outside. During the visit, there was an accident in the playpen that was not communicated to me and wasn’t fully cleaned up, and I also noticed Ollie’s water dish was empty. I appreciated her kindness and willingness to help, but I would have liked clearer communication about how the visit went. That said, she was good with Ollie and he really liked her.”

“Amanda took excellent care of our cat while we were away. Our cat is very social and playful, got all the attention she needed, and appeared fully content when we returned. Amanda also made sure to check in via the Rover app and keep us updated while we were out of town. Next time we need a pet sitter, I know we can rely on Amanda!”

“I scheduled a few drop-in visits with Rachel and she was able to meet the same day to go over My pup’s routine and introduce herself. My dog seemed to love her! During one visit she noticed my dog had gotten into some food and contacted me right away. I highly recommend Rachel!”

“Rachel and John are familiar with rescues and gave my girl great care.”

About: I have worked with horses, many different sizes of dogs, and I am an animal lover at heart. We’ve got your tail covered all day. So I am free almost all the time and it would be me and my mom but mainly me and I have worked with many size and ages of dogs. I always keep an eye on the surroundings of where I walk the dogs and I make sure they’re safety is number one along with mine I don’t let them out of my site and I’m a very cautious person

About: I have taken care of my own dog for 10 years, giving me hands on experience with daily routines, behavior, and long term care. My friends, family, and neighbors all trust me with caring for their pets whether that be through walking, feeding, and overall care. I am reliable and attentive, making sure everyone feels safe. I am currently working a part time flexible job so it will be very easy for me to have an open schedule to care for peoples pets. I always make sure whatever pet I am around that they feel comfortable with me. I will carefully listen and understand a pets routine making sure their routine doesn’t get off track. Safety of the animal always comes first to me and making sure they feel comfortable in the situation they are in.

“Amber is a great sitter! Would recommend to anyone!”

“Rusty has been great with my dog, Kota! Since Kota can be nervous around new people, we scheduled a meet-and-greet prior to any visits. Rusty took the time to get to know his quirks, and allowed for a slow introduction. He has been very reliable and flexible, and always provides detailed updates. I highly recommended booking with Rusty!”

About: I have experience with dogs of many breeds, ages, and personality types. I am a dog mom of two, a hyper husky and a loving lab mix. Friends and family rely on me to check in on their dogs when they’re away. This type of schedule can fit perfectly for my lifestyle, especially for drop ins to feed, let out, play time, or to take for walks My pets live exactly like I do. They nap on the couch, sleep in the beds, and swim in the pool with me. They are a part of the family

About: My motto is that it's my responsibility to make sure that each dog under my care is HAPPY and SAFE. Every day that I'm with your pup, I keep that motto at the forefront of my mind. I know how important dogs are to our lives, so it's my duty to make sure that your pup gets to experience the same kind of love and care that they're used to at home. I'm a huge dog lover, so making pups as happy as I can, just comes second nature for me! When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It's a great way to make sure that we're all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pup and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it's always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Finally, I just love meeting new dogs! I like to get down on their level to show them that I'm a welcome presence here to make friends, and I'm sure we'll be best buddies in no time at all. I know how difficult it is to be away from your best friend, so communication is the name of my game. I'll make sure to send plenty of regular updates with accompanying pictures so you can see just how much fun your pup and I are having! I’m hoping to make Rover a full-time career! That’s how much I love animals! I’m very flexible with all your pet caring needs so if there’s anything I can help with, please let me know! Although I'm unable to watch your pups at my home, I'll make sure they're safe at yours! I make sure I understand the pups needs, routine, and any specific care instructions provided by you, the owner. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, ensuring their environment is safe and clean, exercising them, and administering medications or treatments if required.

“Chelsea is awesome!! I will definitely have her watch my cat for my next vacation! Very happy with her communication and updates throughout.”

I’m especially interested in flexible drop-ins and short-term care. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away.
