Cat Sitting Chelsea

“Betsy was fantastic with our cats! During our initial meet and greet both cats came out to greet her, which is a rarity with strangers. During her visits she took great photos and provided detailed information about how they were doing. Betsy is great!”

About: I've personally cared for multiple dogs and cats for most of my life. I've most recently provided in-home care for a number of pets on Trusted Housesitters along with my partner for the past three years. We have received consistent five-star reviews from pet owners. I've also cared for my own two small dogs, and am comfortable managing daily routines, exercise, and behavioral cues. Most recently, I've supported a senior cat with health issues during an acute period providing attentive monitoring and calm, consistent care. I have a flexible schedule allowing me to be present for walks, daily care, and lots of one on one attention on a regular basis. I live on a quiet two-acre country property with open space and low traffic dirt roads. The yard is not fenced so dogs are always supervised outdoors and kept on a leash for walks.

“Shelli was great with our cat Marley. Very reliable and friendly. She gave us nightly updates which made our trip more enjoyable knowing she was in good hands. Thanks Shelli! We will surely think of her when we need a sitter.”

“Alexis did a great job taking care of our kitten! Pepper has a lot of energy so it was great to have someone take care of her and play with her while we were away. She sent pictures of Pepper playing every day which I loved.”

About: Im not your normal dog sitter i don't only just care there my family and I am reliable, trustworthy, and caring. ill treat your fur baby or fur babies all kind of dogs just like my family. I had 4 dogs and watched friends and family friends dog since i was 14 It fits in my daily routine for me to help other people and take care of there dogs. I have a husky of my own so I understand sometimes you need help with watching your fur baby If your fur baby likes to play I can play with it or i have a husky that loves to run and play and can keep your fur baby company and get its energy out.

“Melissa was fantastic! She treated my dog like family and kept me up to date every visit. I was very nervous about leaving my dog at home but Melissa made it easier. I will 100% request her again.”

“We loved having Karla check in on our pup while I was having a medical procedure out of state. I had an adverse reaction and had to stay an extra night and Karla saved our butts by being able to do an extra day! Very punctual and highly recommend using her!”

About: I grew up with dogs, as many do. I have experience with an anxious reactive dog, experience taking our dogs through behaviorists and trainers, and experience potty training a puppy. I have watched cats for a handful of friends and have checked in on dogs for other friends and family as well. I am starting with Rover and looking to make a little extra money. Each pet is different and each schedule is different. Reach out and we can talk about what your needs are. I prefer to do meet n greets if you have a pet with behavior concerns. I would care for pets in a client's home, depending on their preferences and needs. A check in would include a meal if needed, walk if needed, medication if needed, potty time if needed, and play time or snuggle time if needed.

About: I currently work at a vet tech. I’m hoping to pursue veterinary school within the next couple years. I have a cat, dog, and tortoise of my own. I love taking care of animals. I’m willing to be flexible with rates too. I have experience sitting independently. New to Rover though! Im working part-time so I have plenty of flexibility with my schedule and will do my best to accommodate your fur babies. They’ll be treated like my own! I cannot provide boarding unfortunately as I don’t have a house. However, I am definitely willing to come sit and do overnight stays if you live a reasonable distance from me.

“Allison was very helpful in taking care of our two senior cats. Normally when we’re gone they’re very stressed out but we came home to two very relaxed kitties. Thanks Allison!”

About: I have experience with all types of temperaments and breeds in all phases of life. My approach towards dogs is that they should receive ample stimulation through individualized exercise needs, walks that allow for lots of sniffing, and play time that allows your dog to feel like they accomplished a mission! EXPERIENCE HIGHLIGHTS: senior care, reactive dogs, fearful dogs, service animals, puppy training, grooming, nail trims, administering medications, general training PET SITTING EXPERIENCE - I have pet sit for many friends over the past few years. I have bonded closely with each of them and think of them each as my little friends! I am dedicated to providing timely potty breaks, ample and diverse stimulation, and exercise. I have experience administering medications, grooming, nail trimming, and training. REACTIVE DOGS - I helped train and raise my parents dog, a reactive rescue named Thunder. Through a gentle and persistent approach, I trained him to recall on demand, tamed biting tendencies, and blttust humans again. In his older years I have learned how to encourage eating following a medical event that left him with no appetite. - I also have experience pet sitting a high energy herding dog who needed minimum of a 2 hours of exercise per day an struggled with resource guarding. With patience, I helped train him to share toys and use his inside voice when he demands something! - When living in Cincinnati with my Shiba, we would spend 10+ hours per week at the local dog park. Here I learned de-escalation with aggressive and unpredictable dogs. SERVICE ANIMALS - In college I helped a friend train a Labrador from 8 weeks old to be a Leader Dog for the Blind. I learned how to crate train, potty train, stop at crosswalks, and train a dogs to be in public spaces through the use positive reinforcement and slow immersion of new situations. - My first (and current) dog is a Shiba Inu, a breed notorious for their stubbornness. I trained him like a service animal (although he is not registered) and he regularly goes to public spaces like crowded festivals, dog friendly music venues, and dog friendly businesses and if often complimented for his calm behavior and ability to sit patiently. I am a full time pet sitter who can do visits morning to evening Monday to Sunday. I travel often and only decline clients when I have a trip planned. I will tailor frequency and duration to your pets needs. I am able to provide all of the following: walks, play time, grooming, nail trims, administering medications, special requests, some training.

“This is my first time using Rover to get a pet care giver. I am very satisfied with the result. I would come back to Julie for future needs of visits.”

About: I’ve been caring for loving animals since I was 11, and over the years, family, friends and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk and look after their pets with consistent compassion, patience, and genuine affection. I’m currently working part-time so I’m home throughout the week. I’m available to pet sit, dog walk or provide a midday potty break. Mostly during the week however my schedule is flexible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely, provide gentle companionship, keep their environment clean and comfortable, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while their family is away.

“Autumn took amazing care of my cat Ruby! She was very responsive and easy to communicate with, I would highly recommend her and would definitely have her take care of Ruby again!”

“Brianna is a very engaging young woman — wonderful with our rescue dog Flora and confidence-inspiring. We are very comfortable having her care for our dog and our home while we are away.”

“Chelsea is a reliable and caring pet sitter who goes the extra mile when taking care of pets. She was able to help us on short notice and we felt very assured that our cats were in good hands. She also gives great updates on the pets and responds quickly whenever we contact her. We plan to schedule more pet sitting with her and I would definitely recommend her to others.”

“Olivia was thoughtful, communicative, timely, and so sweet with Brodie. I was stress free knowing she was the one giving Brodie some love every day when we were gone.”
