“Conscientious, caring, reliable and trustworthy! We were extremely pleased with the care Brianna provided to our 3 cats. She understood all instructions, always responded to all communication, and followed a rather complicated set of instructions perfectly. We highly recommend Brianna's services and would not hesitate to use her in the future. She earned and deserves the 5 star rating”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for cats of all personalities—from playful kittens to shy, reserved cats. I’ve boarded cats in my home, done drop-in visits for multi-cat households, and always make sure pet parents feel connected while they’re away. I send regular updates with photos and videos so you’ll never have to wonder how your pets are doing—you’ll see they’re happy, safe, and well cared for. In addition to cats, I also have experience with dogs and even tortoises, so I’m comfortable caring for a wide range of pets. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company, I’m here to give them the attention and love they deserve. Since I work part-time evenings, I have plenty of daytime flexibility for pet care. I enjoy making cat care part of my regular weekly routine. I create a safe, calm environment by keeping areas clean, securing doors and windows, and sticking to the pet’s usual routine so they feel comfortable and cared for.
“Jennifer is so great! We feel so comfortable leaving our kitties with her. She’s very reliable, sends a ton of pics, and is so sweet with them. I would highly recommend her to anyone”
“Katie was available to watch my cats on short notice. This is the second time I have used her pet care services and it's a relief to know that my cats are well taken care of while I'm away.”
“Jerry was amazing with my feline beasts. She has excellent communication, provided me with videos and pics with each visit along with a brief summary of the visit. I am so happy to have found someone who cares for my felines as if they were her own. My cats required medicine and are not the cuddly pair. But Jerri was able to build a connection. I'm so appreciative of how well she took care of my animals and hm.”
About: I’m a full-time nursing student with a natural love for animals and a calm, dependable presence. I’ve helped care for pets for over 6 years, including cat sitting for my in laws, dog sitting for friends, administering basic medications, and keeping pets company while their humans are away. I’m especially great with cats (I have two of my own!) and enjoy quiet drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, litter box cleanup, and giving pets the affection and attention they need. I also love dogs and am happy to help with walks, check-ins, or house sitting. As someone studying nursing, I take responsibility seriously and will treat your pets like my own.

I love fitting pet care into my routine — it’s a great way to unwind and connect with animals! I especially love cats, and have done tons of research and pride myself in knowing cat behavior. I always prioritize the comfort and safety of the pets I care for. Whether I’m visiting your home or offering house sitting, I follow instructions closely, keep things clean and secure, and make sure your pets feel safe and loved. I’m experienced with cats and dogs, including giving meds, cleaning up accidents, and keeping them engaged and stimulated with play and activities. You can trust me to treat your home and your fur baby with the respect they deserve.

Carpenter cat parents share their Rover experiences
Veronica was a wonderful cat sitter for Caper and Tiggy! She was a great communicator, always letting me know when she would be dropping by, and she stuck to the schedule she committed to. Each visit came with detailed updates and plenty of cute photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I could tell she really cared about my cats. I’d happily book her again.
Minjee is truly the best! She’s so patient and kind and handles our cats SO well despite their different needs and personalities. We recently left on vacation, and unfortunately our kitten hurt his eye just before we left. Minjee was able to help administer his medications while we were away even when his usual vet clinic had trouble. We came home to happy and healthy cats and I couldn’t be more grateful. 💛
Brianna is a reliable and attentive caregiver to our cats. While we were away on vacation Brianna checked in on our two cats, refilled their food and water and checked on their litter. I really appreciated her responsiveness and thoroughness. She even watered our plants! I would highly recommend Brianna to others and would have her watch our cats again! 🫶🏻
Jamie was a fantastic cat sitter for June. She was attentive and reliable. And even sent daily updates and photos. I would absolutely work with her again. May thanks!
Very professional and nice. Friendly with the pets and showed on time. Recommend for sure and will repeat service.
This is the second time we’ve used Raeyna but the first time we’ve left our cats for more than a couple days. I am admittedly a crazy cat mom and was a bit nervous. Raeyna did a great job responding to my texts promptly and sent me pictures of both cats which helped put me at ease. This was greatly appreciated since one of my cats is fearful of strangers. Raeyna eventually earned her trust and even played with her! Everything was in order when we returned and our kitties came to greet us immediately. Thank you for taking good care of our kitties and putting up with an anxious cat mom!
I recently hired Alison to look after my cat, Mila, and I couldn't be happier with the service. From the very beginning, she was professional, responsive, and genuinely caring about my pet's well-being. During our initial meeting, Alison took the time to get to know Mila and understand her routines and preferences. She provided regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind. I highly recommend Alison to anyone in need of a reliable and loving cat sitter. I will definitely be booking her again in the future! Thank you, Alison! P.S. Mila misses her play dates already. 😄
Diana was super communicative and very easy to work with. She sent pics and videos of our little guy, which was much appreciated. I look forward to using her services again in the future!
Marney was awesome! We had a bit of an emergency with our original cat sitter bailing on us last minute (which was very upsetting) but Marney stepped in and handled it wonderfully! Our cat Milo took to her immediately and the two became quick friends which relieved our anxiety so much given the situation. She was responsive, diligent, and followed all our instructions perfectly! We'll definitely book her again as soon as we need it!
Exceptional Caregiver & True Animal Lover! We feel incredibly fortunate to have had Kirstin care for our beloved cat at our home for 45 days. Her kindness, proactive approach, and dedication to our pet's well-being exceeded our expectations in every way. Throughout her stay, Kirstin maintained excellent communication, keeping us informed about our cat's daily activities, appetite, and any concerns she had. Her prompt notification and willingness to take action in case of emergencies gave us immense peace of mind while we were away. We were impressed by her respect for our home and adherence to our rules. Upon our return, we found our home tidy and clean – a lovely surprise! But what truly sets Kirstin apart is her genuine affection for animals. Our cat adored her, showering her with cuddles, purrs, and even the occasional 'biscuit-making' sessions – a testament to the special bond they formed. Her selflessness and compassion shone through in many ways, including a few thoughtful overnight stays to monitor our cat's health and her kind offer to care for our pet on the night of our return, when we were struggling with jet lag. To top it all off, Kirstin surprised our cat with a delightful parting gift, which has become his new favorite toy! We wholeheartedly endorse Kirstin as a trustworthy, compassionate, and exceptional house sitter. We would be delighted to have her care for our pet again and highly recommend her to anyone seeking a reliable and animal-loving sitter.
Jerri did a great job playing with Kianna while my wife and I were out on a long trip. Jerri provided photos and videos to keep our mind at ease that our little elder cat was have fun and had good company
Awesome sitter. Got acquainted and played with our shy cat and was able to make sure she was fed and taken care of. We had regular communication over chat and videos from Rover during visits
Sana sent pictures every day and promptly responded to any messages I sent. She also helped with bringing in some heavy packages and one that needed to be refrigerated, which I really appreciated. Most importantly, our girls were well taken care of.
I wanted Juejin again for my second time thought I somehow searching in the wrong place. However I was able to book her for a 2nd time. I would certainly keep her as a permanent sitter, however her area will be changing. Her new location area will be getting a very valued and dependable person for drop-in visits. I recommend her highly.
Jasmine was a great choice for watching our pets while we were on vacation. She came over a couple of times prior to the trip to make sure that she understood everything and it helped the pets get comfortable with her. While we were gone, she came on time every day and sent plenty of pictures. I would use her services again without a doubt. Thanks Jasmine!
