“They did a great job keeping the place clean and taking care of my two cats. I got daily pictures/videos and could tell they did well bonding with the boys too. Will definitely reach out again for help! Thanks so much!”
“Elizabeth did a great job of caring for my cat and was very gracious about accepting another cat at the last minute. In my hurry to leave for vacation, I forgot to leave cat litter bags out. Elizabeth took care of that and didn't mention it during our exchanges. Elizabeth is an excellent cat sitter.”
“Emma has been a godsend helping with my senior dog while I was out of town. She was very patient, followed detailed instructions, and genuinely concerned for Mitzi's wellbeing. 100% recommend and would book with her again.”
About: I have been able to take care of animals (dogs and cats) since age 5 as I had pets throughout my whole life. I have also briefly owned horses building the skillset of hygiene care for larger animals. I absolutely love dogs. I have had experience with small dogs all the way up to English Mastiff and Ridgeback sizes. I have been a helpful pet sitter for many family members and some friends. I absolutely love animals and plan to incorporate them into my therapeutic process with clients in the future. Please send them my way and I will give them all the love and empathy while you're away and as needed! I am a graduate student with an internship which entails the need for a daily routine. I am more flexible for weekends and holidays, and I am also willing to make other days work given enough time notice in advance. I love to be outside year-round, especially fall and winter, so I will be active with animals in snow/cold or sunshine which means walks and playing! I have three cats who have everything they need including love and grooming! I have a three-legged cat who requires more care for hygiene and grooming, so he gets lion cuts every so often. All of my cats get treats and are spoiled with love. I am flexible and willing to work around whatever is needed for safety and the environment. I would prefer to do house visits and drop-ins to feed/let outside, etc. I would need to be provided equipment like leashes, crates, food bowls, food, etc. I do not want to disrupt your pet's routine or familiarity of their own materials.
“Kelsey did such an amazing job with our cat! Like most cats he needs a little time to warm up and she was so patient with him. He was loving all the playtime he got and by the end even crawled into her lap for attention. Her updates and pictures were detailed and we were able to enjoy our trip knowing our cat was happy, healthy, and enjoying time with Kelsey. The next time we need a sitter we'll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Ariana rocks. She is always quick to respond, and provide updates throughout the visit. We have worked with her on our last two trips and will be reaching out for future trips.”
“This was my first time using Rover, and I chose Sarah specifically because she has so many repeat customers, and it's easy to see why! My cat normally hides from strangers, but walked right up to Sarah at our meet-and-greet. The biggest thing for me was, there was a huge snowstorm coming while we were gone, and Sarah made sure to come over extra early on the day the storm was due to hit, to make sure our kitty had more than enough food and water to last her a bit longer if needed. And it WAS needed, the storm was so bad there was a travel ban put in place for days, but because of Sarah's pre-planning our kitty did just fine until we could get home to her two days later. Sarah, I can't thank you enough!”
“Ciara goes above and beyond when taking care of my boys. From her detailed check ins assuring me all is okay to her genuine care and enthusiasm for animals, she is by far the best sitter I have had (and I’ve had many!). I can enjoy going away because I know the boys are in good hands and my place is taken care of. She is also just lovely and has a great attitude. Cannot recommend her enough!!!”

I’ve also provided regular dog walking, in-home sitting, and medication support for friends and family.

Whether it’s feeding, meds, walks, or just some good company, I’m there to give them the care and attention they’re used to. I’ll keep you updated along the way, so you always know how they’re doing.
“Jenna currently takes care of my high energy pup multiple times a week and she has been amazing! She’s adaptable and gives my boy the care and attention that he deserves. I Highly recommend Jenna for your pet care needs!”
“We were very satisfied with our experience in using Bri to care for our dog while we were out of town. She conducted 5 drop-in visits and followed our instructions perfectly. We recommend her services whole-heartedly and we would definitely use her again.”
About: Hi! My name is Jessica and I am a physician assistant student. I have experience taking care of pets since I was 15 and I have a goldendoodle myself. I have taken care of dogs of all sizes, so I am comfortable with both small and large dogs and anything in-between! I also have friends who have relied on me to take care of their cats when they are away. I am currently in clinical rotations. With enough notice, I can plan my weekday schedule to accommodate your pet.

I will follow any and all instructions to make sure your pet receives the care and attention they require. I ensure to provide excellent care for my client’s pets and treat them like one of my own!
“Courtney is amazing!!! Sierra did really well with Courtney during her visits. She responded quickly to our requests, kept us informed throughout the visits, worked with Sierra's training during her walk, and made sure she was fed. We're grateful she accepted the booking with short notice during our family Xmas visit. Really recommend her if you're looking for an expert sitter.”
“Carolyn is amazing! She watched our cat while we were away on vacation. She administered medication every day and made sure to send us fun pics of our cat! She is hands down the best cat sitter on here!”
“Alyssa was so amazing with my fur babies. She sent daily photos and was extremely communicative. Also cleaned up behind them when they were being a bit naughty (knocked over plants lol) Ultimately, I came home to a clean litter box and extremely happy kittens. I am certain they will miss her and I intend to rebook with Alyssa in the future.”
“Nicole was very responsive and so flexible with my schedule! She always sends a picture and an update. She did in home visits and has kept her overnight. Felt very comfortable with her in the apt. Even took Monna to work with her! Would definitely recommend Nicole!”

Ciara goes above and beyond when taking care of my boys. From her detailed check ins assuring me all is okay to her genuine care and enthusiasm for animals, she is by far the best sitter I have had (and I’ve had many!). I can enjoy going away because I know the boys are in good hands and my place is taken care of. She is also just lovely and has a great attitude. Cannot recommend her enough!!!
Daniela was reliable, communicative, and kind. She provided our 3 cats with consistency and entertainment while we were away! and got even our most skittish cat to feel comfortable and look forward to her visits. Thank you so much - would book again without hesitation!
Elisabeth was absolutely incredible at taking care of our cat. I didn't have to worry for a second while we were on vacation because I knew he was in good hands. She sent lots of pictures and clear feedback and even wrote us an endearing note about her time with our boy. Absolutely would use her services again and again.
Nick watched our cats 🐈 🐈 over the holidays. Very grateful to have someone so kind and respectful of our home checking in on them! Would definitely recommend Nick! He was very responsive and was even kind enough to water our plants 🪴 (which was a huge help).
Marine did a great job taking care of Chidi, who I know can have his behavior quirks and difficulties! She was very responsive and a pleasure to work with- I trusted that Chidi was in good hands when I had to take a last minute trip out of town. I received lots of pictures and Chidi looked like he had a great time. I would definitely have her care for Chidi again and recommend her to anyone looking for A+ cat care!
