“We are so thankful for Christina and the way she looks after our kitty while we're away. She gives him his meds, spends time giving him love, and keeps us up to date. It makes it so much easier to leave our geriatric kitty!”


“Jon was great while we were away - we had an emergency and he made time to go over and check on the cats at an unscheduled time. He gave updates every time of what he did and sent photos. Even brought out mail in while we were away which was really appreciated.”


About: I have taken care of cats for over 20 years. I have experience caring for cats in all life stages- from kitten to seniors. I would be thrilled to care for your cat(s). I have a flexible work schedule, and can come care for your animals when needed. I'll happily visit more than once a day in order for your pet to feel safe and well-taken care of. I will take care of your pet in your home. I currently have 2 cats, so introducing new pets into my home is not an option.


“Michele was wonderful with Otis. He was calm and relaxed when we came home. Received lots of photos and detailed updates. I was very impressed that prior to her visit she came by to introduce herself to Otis and get all the necessary information she needed. Would definitely recommend to anyone and will be rebooking!”


“I can’t recommend Isabella enough! She did a few drop ins for my kitty moomoo. Moo is usually pretty timid with new people but she loved visits from Isabella. She sent multiple pictures from each drop in. It was such a relief having someone so reliable and trustworthy.”


“Tim did a fantastic job watching over our home and pets. Great communication. Conscientious and trustworthy. And our kitties love him.”


“Eric is a super thoughtful caretaker. Perfectly timely and communicative, and I am very happy to have someone so dependable help out with our kitty. Thank you Eric!”


“Hi my name is Sheila , my husband Andrew and I hired Rover pet sitter "Kevin" to visit & take care of our 16 year old Bengal cat "Benny" while we were on vacation for 2 weeks. Kevin was AWESOME! we loved his notes , messages, & pictures that he sent to us, DAILY visits were recorded and, sent to me via text and e-mail. This was reassuring to know that Benny the cat was doing O.K. alone for a long period of time.Kevin scooped and cleaned out her litter box, fed her daily and made sure she had enough water in her bowl to drink. He also played with her and gave her Fun what he called "meow time"! I loved that. He told me that she was funny and got used to his visits and was responsive to his attention. We are going away again in later August and, I won't hesitate to reach out to Rover again to see if Kevin is available to take care of Benny cat again. Kind regards, Thank You Kevin, Best, Sheila & Andrew”


“Ashley did a great job caring for my cats while I was in Asia! She wrote good notes in the app every day, included extra photos and videos, and she really seemed to bond with my cats! They seemed to trust her which I appreciate. I also had a bit of an issue and she ended up fitting me into her schedule sort of last minute, which I really appreciate. She was a great sitter. I would absolutely book her again!”


“Jeannie was awesome! She came at nearly the exact time we agreed on, I got tons of pictures every day (really good ones I might add!) and when I came home I actually think my cat was disappointed! She kept waiting for me to play with her and I even think photograph her! ?. I am definitely going to use Jeannie in the future!”


“As always, this dynamic duo took great care of my guys with awesome communication and lots of updates! They are just the best! 1000% recommend!”

“Harley was great! I have a spicy older male cat who needs twice daily heart meds he's very good at avoiding, on top of both of my cats being a little skittish around new people. Harley had him taking pills no problem. She's on time and sends good updates to keep you in the loop.”

“If you can find someone who loves their pets (and really, ALL pets) more than Elizabeth... well actually I challenge you to find someone. Go ahead... I'll wait. In all seriousness the only issue you'll have with Elizabeth is that your pets will want you to go on vacation more often just so they can see her. Kind, dependable, fun (will play with pets!! alot... like you may need to up your game when you return just so they like YOU again). Just kidding... kind of ;-) Really though, if you need a pet sitter, Elizabeth is the person you wish you could hire. Oh... hey! maybe you can!”
