“Don was extremely communicative and sent lots of pictures and videos while dropping in to check on my cat. He left detailed summaries of each visit and my cat warmed up to him quickly! I would highly recommend him for any drop in needs you have!”
“We are so grateful for the care you provided for our cat on such short notice over the holidays. It was a huge relief knowing they were in such good hands. Communication was great, and it was clear our cat was comfortable and well cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again—thank you so much!”

About: I have had farm animals and pets my whole life. All of my pets have had long wonderful lives ranging from 19-22years. I feed my pets all natural and raw foods. I keep my pets groomed and medically sound. I currently work 3 days a week which leaves 4 days a week of being available at home. I only work a 5 minute drive from my home. I have my own dog who is trained and well behaved. On the days that I work I take her for a walk in the morning, come home on my lunch for a walk and then 2 walks in the evening. My Siberian Husky is great company and she has plenty of toys to share. I will have crates set up in my house if you prefer your pet to be crate trained or if the crate is a comfort zone for your fur baby.
About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life. Whether it is dogs, horses, cats, reptiles I have a love for showing animals the love and care they deserve! I’ve done travelling with pets for friends to bring their loved dogs to a different destinations. I work from home, so I have the flexibility to provide attentive, reliable care around your pet’s schedule. From drop-in visits and walks to medication administration, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship, I offer personalized care tailored to your pet’s unique needs. I’ll treat your home with respect and care for your pet as if they were my own Caring for pets in your home means respecting both your space and your pet’s routine. I do my best to keep everything as close to their normal schedule as possible, so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding times, walks, playtime, or bedtime, I’ll follow the routine they know and love. I also believe communication is key, so I’ll keep you updated as often as you’d like with messages, photos, and check-ins for complete peace of mind.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life, including dogs, cats, and small animals, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I’ve looked after many furry friends over the years and take pride in being patient, gentle, and treating every pet like my own. Animal care fits naturally into my schedule. I work full time and do some cleaning on the side, but I truly love making time to spend with furry friends whenever I can. Pet visits and walks are something I genuinely look forward to, and I enjoy adding a little extra animal time into my days—it’s a joy, not a chore. I care for pets with patience, kindness, and respect for their routines, whether in my home or in my client’s home. I follow all feeding, walking, and care instructions closely to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I take time to get to know each animal’s personality, provide plenty of attention and affection, and ensure their safety at all times. My goal is to create a calm, loving environment so every pet feels secure and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: I've taken care of cats & dogs (& many other critters) for over 40 years. I grew up on a farm and know the importance of treating animals with care and compassion. I've walked, groomed, bathed and played with more dogs & cats for myself, friends/family & neighbours than I can count. I'll treat your furbaby like it was my own - with love. I have markets that I attend on weekends for my business, so I have plenty of time during the week to dedicate to pet care. My schedule is pretty flexible. I will be caring for your pet in your home, which means I'll be following whatever rules you have in place. This includes feeding, play, outdoor time & walks.

It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
