Cat Sitting in Coal Valley

“Sophia did an amazing job following my instructions and taking care of my pets (ferrets and cats) when we were gone for the weekend. She has been easy to reach and left detailed report cards after each visit.”

Hope R.

“Tia did such a great job taking care of our two cats during our vacation! We really appreciated her thoughtfulness in sending detailed report cards with every visit, and enjoyed the cute pictures that reassured us that our boys were happy and well cared for. Tia was conscientious in taking care of all the other little tasks like watering plants, filling the bird feeders, and cleaning up cat oopsies. It was great to come in the door upon our return after a long day of travel and having no issues to deal with! Would highly recommend Tia and we look forward to booking her for our next trip.”

“Amara was absolutely amazing with my cat, and kept me up to date and at ease. I would recommend her highly and use her rover services again!!”

“Jenna and Spencer did a wonderful job with our 2 dogs! I was skeptical using Rover but after many years of relying on friends and family to watch our dogs while we are out of town, I knew I had to eventually hire someone, they did not disappoint. Our dogs warmed up to them pretty quickly and that's not always the case with our pups, they made 2 stops at our house before our vacation to get acquainted with the pups which was perfect. The check ins with pictures kept our mind at ease while we were away and they kept in contact as well. I would highly recommend! We will be using them going forward for our pet care needs!”

About: I have helped in taking care of my own pets for many years, but have been petsitting for the last 7 years and recently just started taking new clients again! I know how important it is to have quality care for your pets and not have to worry while you are gone, and I can ensure they will get quality care and all the belly rubs! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from Bernese Mountain Dogs to Chihuahuas, and also cats! I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and administering medication. I recently graduated from WIU, but with summer approaching I will have so much time to spend with your animals! I work Mon-Fri from 8am-3pm, but can spend all free time with your pets! I’m am very open with my schedule and would be able to do quick drop ins or even long stays if your family plans to go on a long vacation! The easiest way for me to care for your pets would be in your own home. If it was a long stay, I would be flexible to just do drop ins as needed or even stay overnight if that is okay with you! Otherwise if it was just quick drop ins throughout the day, I would be glad to stop by your home to help, truly whatever works best for you!

About: I’ve been a pet lover since I was a little girl. I’ve grown up around so many animals including my sweet horse Ace! My favorite is how every animal has their own personality, & the way they love us unconditionally without ever saying a word. I am a full time teacher during the school year, and work part time during the summer which gives me a lot more availability to fit with your schedule! I treat every animal like family and they will be in the best hands. I love meeting new furry faces and they will receive the best care!

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring dog lover who enjoys spending time with dogs of all breeds and personalities. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or more laid-back and cuddly, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, playtime, giving medications if needed, and sticking to any instructions that help keep your dog happy and stress-free. I understand how important routine and attention are, and I treat every dog like they’re my own! I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pup is doing. My goal is to make sure your dog gets plenty of care, exercise, affection, and companionship while you’re gone. I’d love to meet you and your dog(s)! I'm a May 2026 Augie grad who is navigating my first full time job post grad, but with a pretty flexible schedule outside of that! I am free weekends at pretty much any time and Monday thru Friday after 4pm. I prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. For dog walks and drop-in visits, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and care based on their individual needs and energy levels. For cat sitting, I understand the importance of patience and creating a calm environment so cats can feel comfortable at their own pace while maintaining a clean litter box, offering attention (if wanted), and of course food/treats and water. I always follow owner instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, leash handling, litter box cleaning, and any special routines or preferences. Safety is very important to me, so I’m attentive during walks, careful with doors and gates, and always mindful of pets’ behavior and surroundings. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are happy and in good hands while they’re away.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for many years and have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable following specific routines, administering basic care, and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I’m able to be flexible with scheduling. I have availability on weekdays and weekends and can accommodate drop-ins, walks, and extended stays depending on your needs. I enjoy spending quality time with pets and make sure they receive plenty of attention, play, and care. I am a teacher, so in summer months, winter and spring breaks I will have quite a bit more of availability. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, routines, and feeding schedules provided by pet parents. I maintain a clean, calm environment and closely supervise pets during play and outdoor time. I’m attentive to behavior, energy levels, and any signs of stress, and I always communicate updates so you feel confident your pet is in good hands.

“Abby was prompt and sent pictures of my little guy during the visit. When we got home, he was very happy! I highly recommend Abby. She is great with animals and very trustworthy.”

Danielle D.

“She took really good care of my adult cat and 7 month old kitten. Both cats were properly feed and comfortable. She was flexible to last minute scheduling and arrangement modifications. I would definitely book with her again!”

Samirah A.

“I have a job that is on-call, so I find myself asking for a pet sitter somewhat last minute sometimes. Emily is great for those calls and also for when I know a need a sitter in advance! Emily clearly has a passion for dogs; my dog loves her! She goes the extra mile to make sure she knows exactly what my dog needs and wants and to make sure my dog is a happy and healthy pooch when I can't be home! Thanks, Emily! I will be a repeat customer.”

Patrick A.

“Great sitter! She was very attentive and caring to my gang.”

Haley B.

“Once again Erica provided exceptional care for our two dogs. Very dependable! Very comforting to know our dogs are being well cared for when we are away from home.”

Mark & Deb L.

“Ashley did an excellent job watching my dog. She sent me pictures and updates just so I would know he was being taken care of. She even had frozen carrot treats for him. I definitely recommend her and will use her servives again.”

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 9. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to care for their pets while they were out of town. I have experience with different breeds, sizes, and personalities of dogs from gentle greyhounds to energetic border collies! I also have experience petsitting multiple dogs and cats at once. I am a teacher on summer break so I have lots of time and attention to devote to your animals! I am available at any time of the day. I have a fenced in backyard and currently no animals in my house. I live walking distance from a lot of great dog walking spots! I am also available to care for pets in their own home.

“They were amazing with my dog, Cash! They stayed right to his schedule and he LOVED having them come visit.”

About: Hi! I’ve always loved being around animals. I’m patient, attentive, and understand that every pup has different needs and will be diligent in ensuring those needs are met. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, loved, and excited for our time together. I’ll always keep you updated so you have peace of mind! I am currently a stay at home mom and have availability throughout the day along with the needed childcare as jobs arise. I am free during the day for walks or check-ins while you are at work! I am a caring and patient person who loves all animals. My goal is to make every animal feel safe and cared for when in my care!

About: Going out of town? Want to leave your pet in the comfort of their home rather than boarding them somewhere that stresses them out? Want to leave them with someone who will give them tons of TLC? Then I'm your gal! I have been petsitting for over 20 years, and I've had my own business for 15 years (Happy Tails). I have a lot of energy myself, but am also content to sit around and cuddle, so any energy dog is fine with me! I've taken care of dogs with health needs, administered many medications including insulin shots, liquids and pills, and worked with deaf and blind animals. I have owned and fostered/rescued many animals and many breeds in my lifetime. Please contact me if you're interested, and feel free to check out my Facebook page for reviews (Happy Tails QC). Thank you! As this is my full-time job, I have a lot of time daily to care for your furbabies, & I'm available 365 days a year! I care for pets in the owners home. I come by three times a day for 20-30 minutes each time. I can also do walks!

About: I started caring for animals when I rescued my dog bean! She has taught me a LOT! Thanks to her I know how to manage dogs who are reactive. I'm also pretty good at keeping my footing if your 60lb pup decides to pull. All dogs deserve love is my motto. I also have experience caring for exotics! I've rehabilitated a bearded dragon and Russian tortoise in the past. I own tarantulas so I'm not afraid of any creepy crawlies either. Most of my availability will be on weekends but my schedule changes all the time so just ask! I'm normally pretty flexible so I'll try to fit you in, even if you ask same day. I can't bring your pet to my home unless it is a small caged pet but I'm happy to visit your home. I'm willing to do overnight stays or just pop in to give your pet a potty break and a walk. I'll always respect your home as if it was my own and your pets wellbeing will always be my highest priority.

About: I’ve been pet-sitting for years, mostly with large dogs and a few cats ranging through all ages, though I’m new to using Rover! I love connecting with animals and tend to make friends with every pet I meet. I also have a mini poodle of my own, so I understand how important it is to know your pet is in caring hands. Pet-sitting is something I genuinely enjoy, and I treat every animal like family. I am on summer break home from college. So my days are almost completely free. I work Thursday mornings at a restaurant, but that’s it. My days are already filled with driving from LeClaire all the way to Davenport visiting friends and family or running errands. Fitting in a visit to your pet would be my priority and easily done. My Own dog is yard trained and extremely friendly (she doesn’t bite, she’s yard trained, She doesn’t have accidents in the house, She’s very submissive and friendly to other dogs, and rarely even barks). I spent a lot of my time playing with my dog, taking her on walks and I would do the same for any other animal. besides getting a dog it’s activity in, I also love cuddles and giving pets to the dogs and cats.
