Cat Sitting Cottage City

“Cannot say enough good things about Keaton. They looked after our 3 cats for two weeks. They capably handled multiple different kinds of meds for each cat, made sure each had their different needs for playtime and feeding met, and did it all with so much care for each. They sent multiple updates every day throughout the 2 weeks, which allowed us to relax and enjoy our time away, knowing the cats were in such good hands.”

“Lisa has been a great sitter for our three cats! She is very intuitive when it comes to cats - you can tell that she knows a lot about their behavior and can read the body language. After leaving our three kitties in her care for 9 days, we came home to happy cats, who we could tell were well taken care of. Lisa also responds quickly to Rover messages.”

About: Hi! I'm a vet tech student and frequent foster parent for anything from kittens to reptiles and bunnies. I've had experience with many different dog breeds since I was young and handle walking large dogs well. Actively looking for walks, sittings, and check ins! I treat any client as if they were my own pet! Boardings are context dependent since I have two cats! I’m currently in school full time but my courses are online and self paced so I create my own schedule! Available anytime (early morning and late night walks included) I have a fenced patio and live near a park with a long trail. I have two cats (fixed male and female), they’ll pretty much ignore any small dogs but they are easily spooked by big dogs. I can adhere to any feeding schedule, if your dog needs to be crated I can accommodate that.

“We booked Quantairra pretty last minute before a trip. She came the next day to meet us and our cat, Cash. She was attentive and we felt good about leaving Cash in her hands! Quantairra sent us photos and a helpful report in each Rover report, which we really appreciated, and Cash was doing great when we got back. She also cleaned up a couple messes for us which we really appreciate. Thanks Quantairra!”

“Amazing cat sitter! She took wonderful care of my cat while I was away and provided daily photos and great communication. Looking forward to booking again next time I have to travel!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with plenty of hands-on experience caring for pets with different personalities, needs, and abilities. I have six cats of my own and also care for a feral cat colony, which has taught me a lot about patience, trust, and meeting animals where they are. I also help care for my family’s dogs, including a very happy three-legged mutt who reminds me every day that a disability doesn’t get in the way of a wonderful life! I’m comfortable administering medications to both cats and dogs, including insulin injections. I also practice cooperative care, helping animals feel safe and comfortable during medication and handling rather than making those experiences scary. I believe building trust and respecting an animal’s boundaries can make a huge difference in their well-being. When pet parents are away, I love doing more than just the basics. I enjoy spending quality time with animals, learning their personalities, and planning enrichment activities that keep them mentally stimulated, engaged, and happy. Whether that means playtime, sniffing games, puzzle feeders, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs. I also love learning all the little things that make your pets feel at home! Tell me their favorite treats, toys, hiding spots, sleeping spaces, blankets, routines, and quirky habits. The more I know about what makes them comfortable and happy, the better I can recreate the familiar comforts of home while you’re away. My goal is for your pets to feel like you’ve just stepped out for coffee rather than gone on vacation! I know how much pets mean to their families, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, compassion, and attention I give my own. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, enriched, and well cared for while you’re away, so you can enjoy your time apart knowing they’re in good hands! I currently work a desk job but can visit your pet in the morning, afternoon, and evening. I unwind by spending time with animals, so being with your pet will probably be my favorite part of my day. It will not just be another item on my to do list. At home I live on a 1/3 of acer with a fenced in yard. Inside I have a 6 cats with lots of cat trees and space for cats to go up and get a good view of the world. We also have separate rooms for cats (or small dogs) to have their own space if they get overwhelmed or want their own space

“Landy was fantastic! She is very attentive and communicative, giving us detailed daily reports and lots of pics, which gained our trust knowing our cat was in great care. We definitely recommend her for your pet sitting needs, and we look forward to booking her in the future to take care of ours.”

“Michael did a great job looking after my two cats! Thank you!”

“Obuchi was friendly, thorough and endlessly professional. I have worked for rover for a few years but never booked a sitter myself. Very thankful to have them sit for my kittos and will definitely book them again in the future!”

“Carinna was amazing! She was very reliable and communicative. She went above and beyond as a caregiver for our 20+ year old cat, including delivering treats when he couldn't be bothered to use the stairs. Her time here really made for a worry-free vacation, I would definitely recommend her!”

About: As a dedicated cat lover, I know that cats are most comfortable when their routines, territory, and personal boundaries are respected. Whether your cat is an outgoing socializer who wants immediate playtime or a sensitive soul who needs a quiet presence and time to warm up, I adapt my approach to fit their unique personality. I focus on providing low-stress, highly reliable drop-in visits and care. I understand that subtle changes in a cat's behavior or appetite matter, and I pay close attention to the small details that keep them feeling safe and happy while you are away. I’m currently retired after 27 years as a federal civil servant. I’ll have plenty of time to care for your furry family members and house sitting needs. I am experienced in managing multi-cat dynamics, tracking wellness routines, and creating a calm, predictable environment. I would love to schedule a free meet-and-greet to get to know you and your cats before booking.

“Penny clearly loved Abigail's visits, and was happy and healthy when we got home. Abigail is communicative and flexible, and we appreciated her help very much!”

About: I have more than 14 years of professional animal-care experience, including 10 years working as a veterinary technician. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages and personalities, including seniors, shy or anxious pets, and animals with medical or special-care needs. My veterinary background taught me to pay close attention to the little things — changes in appetite, behavior, mobility, bathroom habits, or overall comfort — and to recognize when something may need closer attention. I’m also comfortable following detailed feeding and medication instructions and maintaining established routines. I know that every pet is different, so I adjust my care to the individual animal rather than expecting them to immediately adapt to me. Some pets want constant attention and cuddles; others need a little more time and space before they feel comfortable. My goal is always to help them feel safe, relaxed, and at home while their person is away. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and a variety of other animals throughout my career, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible, including their usual feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routines. I know many pets do best when their routine stays familiar, so I’m very flexible and will tailor their day to what they’re accustomed to at home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I have a fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time and potty breaks, and there are no children or resident pets in my home. This allows visiting pets to have a calm environment and plenty of individualized attention. I follow each owner’s instructions regarding leashes, harnesses, feeding, medications, exercise, and household routines. My veterinary experience also means I’m accustomed to monitoring animals closely for changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, bathroom habits, or comfort. I take introductions slowly and let pets settle in at their own pace. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for more than 20 years and have hands-on experience with both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and following detailed care instructions. I also have house-sitting experience caring for pets in their own homes, which has taught me how important it is to keep their normal routine consistent while their family is away. I’m dependable, attentive, and I love keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so they can feel comfortable knowing their pets are being well cared for. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make pet care a priority throughout the week. I’m available for house sitting, walks, drop-in visits, and weekend care. I enjoy keeping pets on their normal routines and can plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, and other care needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I carefully follow their normal routine and all instructions provided by their pet parent. I make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other areas are secure, and I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort. I also keep the home tidy and provide regular photo and message updates so pet parents can feel comfortable while they’re away.

“Camille was a life saver, taking care of our dog Chakli at the last minute. She was fast to respond, always on time, and clearly gave our boy lots of love! She went above and beyond to help during the busy holiday season. She'll be the first person I check with next time I'll be out of town! Thanks!”

About: Through previous and most recent positions, I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments through pet sitting and dog walking. My responsibilities included feeding, administering basic medications, maintaining exercise schedules, cleaning litter boxes, monitoring behavior, and providing companionship and enrichment. While I work full-time, I’m available for evening care after 6 PM depending on location, along with flexible availability on my days off for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I provide reliable in-home pet care by maintaining pets’ routines, ensuring they’re fed, exercised, comfortable, and given plenty of love and attention while their owners are away.

“Kylie did such a wonderful job with my cat! She took great care of him and the apartment, the place looked wonderful and I can tell he got lots of playtime and pets! Would hire again any time”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 8 years old and have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for a ferret and a bearded dragon. I strive to be a calm, safe, and comforting presence so your pet feels secure while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like my own and keep you updated every step of the way. I work full-time from Monday to Friday, but my job is not traditional and allows me flexibility with proper notice. I am free in the evenings, other than Thursdays. I am also free on the weekends. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and stress-free environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, respect your home, pay close attention to their needs and behavior, and treat them with the same patience and love I give my own pets. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you always know how they’re doing.

“In addition to being a consummate professional, Stephanie loved on our cats as if they were her own. She was even able to get through to our youngest cat, who is scared of (and avoids) new people. We were amazed when Stephanie sent us photos of her holding him after only a couple of days under her care. Stephanie followed our instructions and requests to the letter and went above and beyond by giving them treats periodically and "kitty massages." We highly recommend Stephanie and her services.”
