About: Although I’m young, I have been around dogs as long as I can remember. I’ve owned, fostered, and worked with shelters. I know all the ins and outs of dogs! I’m currently on summer break until late August and there is nothing else that would need my attention besides your pet at the current moment. I have a fenced in backyard, but it is on the smaller side. I have one male neutered dog who is very friendly with others and loves to play.
“As a pet owner, you simply want someone you can trust to give your pet the best care and create safety while you're away and we found that in Claudia! We needed a sitter to drop in on our cat Nala while we were away and Claudia was amazing from start to finish. She was on time and kept us informed throughout her time with Nala. Nala was so comfortable and happy with Claudia and we appreciated having someone we can trust! I highly recommend Claudia for any of your pet needs, we will definitely re-book her in the future. Thanks for everything!”
About: Growing up, I have a cat at home, and now I volunteer for Forgotten Cat over weekends to take care about 5 cats every time. I love hanging out with cats. I am a PhD student at University of Delaware, and I have a flexible schedule during weekends and weekday at night and in the morning. I enjoy helping people taking care of their pets while they are gone. I have some cat toys available that I can bring to play with cats. I can provide drop-in visit to feed and play with cats.
“Very flexible and communicative! Had to change my care dates/times last minute, Liz was extremely understanding and able to accommodate. Most important of all, Pop absolutely loved her.”
“Violeta has been absolutely amazing with my toy poodle, Bentley. She is reliable, communicative, and genuinely cares about him. As someone who works long hours, having someone I trust completely with my little guy means everything. Violeta always keeps me updated, makes time for Bentley, and treats him with so much love and attention. It’s clear that she truly enjoys what she does, and Bentley is always happy to see her. Knowing he’s in such caring hands gives me tremendous peace of mind while I’m at work. I honestly couldn’t do this without her, and I’m so grateful for everything she does for Bentley. I highly recommend Violeta to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and trustworthy person to care for their pet! 🐾❤️”
“Courtney was so great with Nittany! We had a bit of an unconventional ask to pick Nittany up from our wedding and bring her to daycare and Courtney was very easy to communicate with and was such a huge help on a very busy day.”
“Grace was amazing, She genuinely loves animals and it felt stress free leaving our fur babies with her. She knew how to take care of them and I know they loved her too! She was constantly in touch with us giving updates and taking pictures. I appreciated it so much and will 100% book again with her”
“Adriene was AMAZING with our two dogs, Chole and Luna! She gave them such love and attention. She communicated with us while we were away. This made us feel so comfortable. We knew they girls were being well cared for. We highly recommed Adriene!”
About: 🛑 PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING🛑: I own 2 cats. Even though my Cats have their own room your dogs must be ok with or have been around cats and knows basic commands. If your dog is medium or large size you MUST bring a cage. I will only use the cage for when I'm at work and I need to let the cats out their room. But when i'm home the dogs have free range even on my bed 😂 Before 2021: I've been pet sitting/walking for friends/neighbors for 5 years & on certain occasions I've been a dog/cat boarder for them, but I've been a dog walker for 5.5 years. 2 of the recurring dogs that I pet sit has had health issues, so I'm able to follow strict instructions given by the owners to take care of their pets in the best way possible whether it's just for a walk or pet sitting. UPDATE JULY 2025: Sorry to any specific owners but unless you are one of the 4 clients I've had since age 20, I will NOT be pet sitting/dropping in on CERTAIN snakes and ALL spiders. My soul will leave my body. The only reason why that is, is because I have a good rapport with the 4 clients and known some of their snakes since they were either in an egg or as a baby so I know their temperament . I'm okay with other reptiles, certain snakes, & pet birds. Some examples are Bearded dragons, geckos, chameleons, Iguanas, African Egg-Eating Snake, Western Hognose, Children’s python, Kenyan sand and Rosy boa. DM for list since there's a caption limit. UPDATE JULY 2025: Depending on my boss I work from Mon-Wed 11pm-7/7:30am, Fri-Sun 6pm-2am, off days maybe Tuesday (after 7:30am), Thursday & sometimes Friday. I will communicate if I happen to work a double or if I'm late since I have to rely on other coworkers to relieve me from my shift. Due to work I will not be petting sitting pets that can't stay alone for more 4-6hrs anymore. But if you need drop-ins for your pets medicine time especially for some of my older clients on all the apps I've been on I remember I will gladly do that when I have time. This is mostly for the cats and small dogs I might be open for boarding. I do own two cats they are up to date with their shots. I know how they react to other cats since I had them for a year, but as for dogs I'm not too sure until I get my own dog. Also, for the most part my yard is fenced is just one side of the fence has not been fully fixed yet so when we are outside in the yard they will be on harnesses for the cats and dogs since I will be outside with them. I also have a an in ground pool that's covered. Also, there's a mix of stray and outdoor cats in my neighborhood and for some, they like to hang out in my front and backyard (they do get in from the broken side of the fence). Mainly for shelter underneath my porch since it's elevated and hides them from this ungodly heat. Plus it doesn't help that me, my dad and my neighbors, do occasionally feed them if we notice that they get too skinny and one of other neighbors bought one of those insulated and heated shelters for the cats to stay in during the winter last year. Fun fact that's how I ended up with my 2nd cat as pet.
About: I love walking and taking out dogs and being able to play with them.

“Caitlin was absolutely amazing! She took great care of my two cats over the weekend. She sent wonderful photos and updates that my husband and I looked forward to viewing during our trip. Caitlin went above and beyond hand washing dishes which was greatly appreciated. I can’t wait to book her again for our next trip! If you need a cat sitter, hire Caitlin!”
“Sarah came highly recommended from our old sitter who is leaving town. She is kind, patient, and genuinely caring. Our dog felt comfortable and happy right away, which gave us total peace of mind at meet and greet. Such a nice, trustworthy person—we’d absolutely book her again.”
“Coleen was excellent! She was great at communicating and updating me at each visit. This was first time leaving my pets alone so I was nervous, but Coleen made me feel much better.”
“Michelle has become the person I trust the most whenever I travel. She is incredibly attentive and responsible, she even noticed that my cat had unplugged the automatic feeder and immediately fixed the issue. Most importantly, my cat absolutely adores her, which gives me so much peace of mind when I’m away. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter and highly recommend her.”

Christiana cat parents share their Rover experiences
Stephanie did an amazing taking care of our 4 kitties. As kitty parents know every kitty has such a unique personality; ours are no different. With ages ranging from 1 1/2 to 17 they each got individual attention during her visits. We felt very comfortable leaving our oldest who has CKD & requires medication under her care. Even our 8 year old Bella who typically hides during sitter visits came out for some love & pets.
Rachel was great with our three cats — Gus, Leo, and Cooper! She was easy to communicate with, flexible with timing, and clearly a true animal lover. Cooper is on the shyer side and Rachel was totally unfazed. We've used her before, will keep coming back, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her!
We can’t recommend Garrison highly enough! He was incredibly conscientious and kind, taking the time to understand our bunnies’ routines and needs before we left. Each day, he spent an hour with them—snuggling, feeding them exactly to our specifications, and making sure they were safe and happy. He also treated our home with great care, responsibly using our security system and even cleaning up after the bunnies. Garrison was friendly, punctual, and kept us updated with adorable pictures. We felt completely at ease knowing our bunnies were in such capable, caring hands. A truly wonderful sitter—highly recommend!
