“Heidi quickly gained Muscade’s trust, who was obviously happy for her company while we were away. Thanks to her very clear reports and the quality of the pictures she took of our cat, we could be confident that he was in really good hands the whole time. Heidi is a very reliable catsitter and I would not hesitate to recommend her services.”
“Krystina did a wonderful job looking after my cat! She was clear with communication and my cat also really liked her (also a good sign). Would definitely rebook for any future pet sits- have strong confidence in her!”
About: Dogs - I have owned a dog since I was little and there has rarely ever not been one in the house. Cats- I have owned cats before and also kittens as well. I have completed a full 2 credit Co op at the OSPCA when in high school. I have lots of personal experience and knowledge with dogs and cats, either owning or taking care of them. I do have a full time job but I love to spend my time off caring for animals and getting to know new people and their pets :) I am respectful, easy going, polite, and punctual. I look forward to getting to know you and your animal(s). I currently work full time at Costco but I make time out of my schedule for taking care of animals because I love to do it I own a dog and he is very friendly. I’ve had him since he was a pup and he’s high energy so we spend time on a lot of walks, and we do a lot of enrichment time whether it’s just playing or doing tasks for treats. If I were to come to a clients home I am very respectful and will focus on your pet and make sure all their needs are met and are well looked after. Let me know of any routines to follow or just basic care and daily feeding schedules.
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 12 years old and grew up surrounded by dogs my entire life. Over the years, I’ve also cared for a chameleon, hamster, and ferret, which gave me experience with a wide range of pet needs and personalities. I adopted my dog Maia 3 years ago, and she’s full of energy with a big personality, which has taught me a lot about active dogs, structure, and keeping playtime both fun and safe. I also adopted my cat when I was 20. She was very feisty, and no one else wanted to handle her, but I built a strong bond with her over time. We also went through a lot together, including managing her diabetes, so I’m very comfortable and experienced with giving medication and administering insulin injections when needed. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I always aim to provide calm, attentive, and loving care so every animal feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away❤️ Pet care is already a natural part of my daily life. I'm currently working remote so my schedule is fairly flexible. I’m also experienced with more specific care, including administering medication and injections when needed, so I’m comfortable adjusting routines based on each pet’s requirements. Overall, I’m very organized and flexible, and I genuinely enjoy having animals as part of my everyday routine rather than it feeling like an extra task. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family and kept in a calm, safe, and structured environment. I have a fenced-in backyard where dogs can run, play, and get energy out safely, along with regular walks and supervised outdoor time. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special care instructions. In a client’s home, I respect their space and make sure pets feel secure in their familiar environment.
About: My typical day involves lots of outdoor adventure and fun for your pets. Whether it’s hiking new trails or enjoying playtime, I ensure your furry friends are happy and relaxed after a full day of activities. Their energy means more joy for both of us! I have extensive experience caring for various animals, including administering medication and providing support for pets with unique behavioral needs, like my own furry friend with anxiety. My background in pharmacy enhances my understanding of medications, allowing me to provide compassionate and knowledgeable care for dogs, cats, and more. Pet care is something I genuinely love having as part of my routine! I enjoy getting outside for walks, playing with pets, giving them lots of attention, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m happy to work around each pet’s individual routine, whether that means morning walks, regular potty breaks, feeding times, playtime, or simply keeping them company. I know every pet has their own personality and needs, so I always take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’d be so excited to make pet care a regular part of my week and get to know some amazing pets along the way! 🐾❤️ When caring for pets in your home, I always make sure to follow your usual routine :) I’ll stick to their feeding, walking, potty, medication (if needed), and playtime schedules, while giving them plenty of love and attention along the way. I also treat every home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll keep things clean and tidy, make sure doors and gates are secure, and leave everything the way I found it. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. 🐶🐱❤️

About: I’ve had a dog since I was born but have also had a bunny and now a cat. Love animals and have looked after many friends pets as well. I am currently in university and do not have a job so have lots of spare time. I miss animals being in my daily life since moving to England so would love to spend time with pets on a weekly basis. Each pet is different so what I do will differ. However no matter what that is I will always put your fur baby first and make them as comfortable as possible while respecting your home.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Stroud
Lyndie did a wonderful job looking after our cat who requires 2 medications and is a bit high maintenance with his attention requirements. I really appreciate that she also washed all his food dishes and rinsed out the cans for recycling. Our cat was quite content when we returned home. Definitely recommend her for cat sitting and will book again.
