About: I love all animals and I have taken care of my own dogs and cats for 15+ years. I am also a 'go-to' person for my neighbors' pets too. I work remotely a few times a week so I can assist during the week!! Can drop in Thurs, Fridays, Sat and Sundays whenever needed to let your animal out, walk or feed too. Also can give shots as I had a diabetic cat which needed shots I can walk your pet - feed, give medication, let animal out - or spend time with them during the day. Happy to assist when needes.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I could walk, literally. I grew up surrounded by pets on a small family homestead, we're talking dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, and the occasional bottle-fed goat among so many others I lost count. Now 28, I bring that same lifelong experience, calm energy, and deep love for animals into every pet-sitting job I take on. Whether your pup needs a long walk, your cat needs quiet company, or your senior pet needs gentle care, I’m here to help. I’m confident handling animals of all sizes and temperaments, and I take pride in being reliable, communicative, and kind. I treat your pets like they’re my own. Let me know how I can support your pet’s routine while you’re away! I work weekends in the hospitality industry, which gives me a lot of flexible time during the week to focus on my writing. Pet care fits in perfectly—I love having walking buddies and a reason to step away from the page and get outside. Whether it’s a midday walk or a quiet home visit, I enjoy building routine and connection with the animals I care for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I’ve worked with animals my whole life—on a farm and in private homes—which means I’m confident handling different energy levels, temperaments, and situations. I’m attentive on walks, avoid unsafe areas or off-leash encounters (unless discussed), and always keep water and waste bags on hand. During home visits, I follow your instructions closely, whether it’s feeding, medications, or just quiet companionship. I respect your space, lock up carefully, and keep you updated with photos and notes so you always know how your pet is doing. My calm energy helps animals feel safe—and I treat them like they’re part of the family.
“Rachel is fabulous with my cat Cotton, I think he likes her more than me now! Got him to endlessly purr, roll on his back for cuddles, and he even lets her hold him (how she pulled that off I have no idea). She truly has a special way with cats and takes great care and affection when pet sitting. Highly recommend.”

Lisa N.
“If you're looking for someone who treats your dog like family, Lisa is the one. She’s reliable, patient, and genuinely loves animals. My pup warmed up to her instantly—and that’s saying a lot, because he’s usually shy around new people. Lisa goes above and beyond, whether it's making sure your dog gets plenty of exercise or sending adorable photo updates that brighten your day. Her calm energy and attention to detail give you total peace of mind. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my four-legged best friend.”

Lily F.
“Lily took care of our two dogs and four cats while we were away for two weeks and honestly, I can’t imagine a better experience. One of our cats is older and needs medication every 12 hours, and our dogs are super high-energy and need a ton of fetch and running around to stay calm. Lily handled it all beautifully. Our animals are usually slow to warm up to new people, but they trusted her right away. The first week she came twice a day (morning and early evening), and the second week she stayed at our house full time. She was great at sending us updates--and not just quick check ins, but real pics and videos of everyone playing (both cats and dogs), relaxing (both cats and dogs), and just doing their thing (cats). It meant a lot to us to feel connected to our babies while we were away. When we got home, everyone was happy to see us of course, but they weren’t anxious or unsettled at all, which was such a relief. In fact we were shocked at how relaxed they were and how quickly they got back into their routine after being gone for a good 2 weeks. That says a lot. And of course the house was spotless. ( I think it might’ve been cleaner than when we left.) Lily is calm, thoughtful, incredibly reliable, and really sweet with animals. Even our standoffish cats came out to hang with her. We’d have her back in a second and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone who needs a trustworthy, kind, and genuinely wonderful pet sitter.”

Balmville cat parents share their Rover experiences
Lacey was awesome with my two cats. They can be slow to warm up to people, but they loved her immediately! She sent me lots of pictures while I was away and made sure that I knew that my cats were well taken care of and loved.
Pamela was very helpful, and she was also very patient with my shy cat, eventually earning her trust. She clearly loves animals!
Leah was so easy to work with and really great and patient with Pepper, who can be a bit shy. Looking forward to working with her again soon!
Loren was awesome, taking care of my 2 cats over my Christmas vacation. My sweet kitty really loved her, and my scaredy-cat even said hi once (first time he’s ever said hi to any pet sitter.)
Catherine was great! We recently moved to a new area so needed a new pet sitter for our cat. Catherine was quick to reply during the booking process and took the time to have a video call with me. Catherine was also very responsive while we were away, sent photos, detailed her drop-in visit activity and answered any questions we had. She also really took the time to win over the affection of my cat, and by night 2 they looked like BFFs! I would definitely book with Catherine again.
