Cat Sitting East Walpole

“This was my second time booking drop-in visits with Jessica. She took great care of my cat. In addition to regular check-ins, she helped us clean the litter box area and cat bowl. My cat had a great time with her!”

Can C.

“Frazier was great with our shy kitty, Blue, who usually hides from people. She was able to get Blue to come out to play and awesome about giving us updates and pictures!! We will definitely call her again to cat sit!”

Claire G.

“Elizabeth took great care of our cat Bernie for 3 days. We always worry about leaving him with a pet sitter because he can be shy and skittish and doesn't always warm up to people he doesn't know. Elizabeth has the magic touch because Bernie was always (and immediately!) happy to see her and even came out to play. When we got back, Bernie was happy, well-adjusted and his usual goofy self. Definitely recommend Elizabeth to anyone seeking a reliable, friendly and professional pet sitter!”

About: Before pursuing my career in elementary education as a special education paraprofessional, I spent three years working at a dog daycare and boarding facility, where I gained extensive hands-on experience managing groups of dogs, reading body language, and ensuring a safe, fun environment. I also spent time working as a veterinary assistant, gaining valuable skills in gentle handling, restraint, and recognizing subtle signs of stress or illness. Additionally, I have been a devoted cat mom for over 20 years and have provided reliable pet sitting for family and friends' cats and dogs for the past decade. Why Pet Parents Trust Me: - Professional Animal Handling Background: My time in both a boarding facility and a veterinary clinic means I know how to safely handle pets of all temperaments and ensure they feel safe, happy, and secure. - Medication & Special Care: I am experienced and confident administering oral and topical medications, supplements, and following precise health routines for senior pets or those with special needs. - Special Education Paraprofessional Background: My career in education brings an exceptional level of patience, structure, and attentive care to every visit. I treat every animal with individual attention and consistent care. - Lover of All Ages & Species: From energetic puppies and playful dogs to gentle seniors and timid cats, I have years of personal and professional experience catering to pets at every stage of life. My workday finishes around 2:30 PM. This schedule gives me reliable, consistent availability for late afternoon, evening, and weekend drop-in visits. On Thursdays, I teach dance in the late afternoon, so my availability starts after 4:00 PM. Whether your pet needs an afternoon check-in, an evening meal and play session, or weekend care while you are away, my set schedule allows me to dedicate plenty of quality time to keeping your pets happy, safe, and right on routine! When visiting your home, your pet's safety and the security of your property are my top priorities: - Secure Entrances & Exits: I am extremely mindful of doors, gates, and windows during visits to ensure pets never have an opportunity to slip outside unexpectedly. - Home Respect & Security: I treat your home with total care and privacy, always making sure doors are double-checked and locked upon leaving. - Continuous Updates & Communication: You will receive detailed visit reports and photos after every drop-in, so you always know how your pet is doing, when they were fed, and that everything went smoothly. Tailored & Attentive Pet Care: - Routine & Consistency: I carefully follow your specific instructions for feeding, fresh water, medication timing, and exercise to keep your pet’s routine completely undisturbed. - Personalized Attention & Stress Reduction: Whether your pet loves high-energy playtime or just wants gentle, quiet cuddles on the couch, I meet every pet where they're at, adjusting to their personality and comfort zone. - Proactive Health & Behavior Awareness: With my background in dog boarding and veterinary assistant work, I continuously monitor body language and health to ensure your pet is safe, happy, and comfortable at all times.

“Margaret took such great care of our cats, she is wonderful. She is so sweet, very caring and I hope she will take care of Olive and Otis again next time we go away! I highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve shared my home with dogs and cats my entire life, rescuing pets of all ages from energetic youngsters to sweet seniors. Over the years, I’ve learned that every animal has a unique story, and I make it a priority to train every pet I bring into my home. This hands-on experience has taught me a massive amount about patience, adaptability, and animal behavior. More than anything, it has given me a deep sense of compassion and a real knack for connecting with animals. I love bringing that structure and care to their lives, and I'm excited to bring that same dedication to this role. I offer in-home pet care tailored to your pet's exact schedule. I work full-time at a school, I am available for quick drop-ins on weekday evenings. I have open availability on weekends to give your pet all the time and attention they need. I offer personalized in-home pet sitting and drop-in check-ins tailored to your pet's unique needs. Your pet's comfort is my top priority, which is why I strictly follow their established feeding and exercise to maintain their normal routine while you are away.

About: I have been taking care of my friend’s and family member’s pets for years, and would love to help my neighbors care for their own pets! I am currently working a hybrid schedule, usually Tuesday-Thursday in the Boston office, so I have plenty of time to help care for your pets! Usually afternoons are best for me, especially on non-remote days. We have a large yard, great for pets that love running around and playing, and lots of sun-lit rooms for the ones who love lounging!

“First time trying cat sitting through Rover and Emily was fantastic! It was nice to know my cat was in good hands and looked after while I was away!”

Michelle A.

“Gus was fantastic! Great updates on our dog and tree removal (lol!). I really can't express how priceless the comfort of going on vacation without the dog was, because I knew our dog was in great hands. Thanks again!”

Im currently working full time as a train driver in the community locally.

I’m off Tuesdays Wednesday and I have full availability during those days and early afternoons and evenings the other days because my shift sometimes ends at 1240pm. I also have some availability on the weekends after 2pm. The environment plays a vital role in the moods and well being of animals.

About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong animal lover, proud dog mom to three rescue pups, and the founder of a nonprofit dog rescue! Through running my rescue, I've had the opportunity to work with dogs of all different breeds, sizes, ages, personalities, and backgrounds. I've gained valuable experience with everything from energetic puppies to shy, fearful dogs who need a little extra patience and understanding. I also have extensive personal experience caring for dogs with medical conditions, allergies, autoimmune issues, and behavioral challenges. My own three rescue dogs have taught me that every dog is different, and I truly believe in taking the time to understand their individual needs, routines, and personalities. I'm comfortable working with dogs who may need extra attention, patience, or a slower introduction to new people and environments. Whether your pup loves long walks, prefers a relaxed stroll, or just needs some extra love and companionship, I'm happy to accommodate what makes them most comfortable. I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. My goal is to provide the same level of love, patience, and attention that I give my own dogs, while making sure you feel comfortable and confident that your furry family member is in good hands! I work full-time remotely in the legal industry, but I also own and operate a nonprofit dog rescue, so caring for animals is already a huge part of my everyday life! My current work schedule offers a great deal of flexibility, allowing me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and other pet care needs throughout the day and week. As a dog mom to three rescue pups, I'm no stranger to balancing feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and individual care needs. I'm fortunate to have the flexibility to work around your pet's routine and provide them with the attention, patience, and love they deserve. Whether your pup needs a quick potty break, a long walk, or some extra companionship, I'm happy to help make their day a little brighter! Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being will always be my top priorities! As the founder of a nonprofit dog rescue and a dog mom to three rescue pups, I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family members. I personally have a fearful, fear-reactive dog, so I understand just how challenging it can be to find someone who is patient, understanding, and willing to accommodate dogs who may need a little extra support. I've dedicated much of my life to accommodating my own dogs' individual medical, behavioral, and emotional needs, and I know that what works for one dog may not work for another. I understand that building trust takes time, and I never expect a dog to feel comfortable with me right away. Through both my rescue work and personal experience, I've learned the importance of respecting each dog's boundaries, recognizing body language, and allowing them to adjust at their own pace. I'm especially passionate about helping owners of anxious, fearful, or special-needs dogs feel confident that their pets are in understanding and compassionate hands. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to maintain their normal routines and follow all instructions closely, whether that involves feeding schedules, medications, exercise, or specific behavioral accommodations. I believe in creating a calm, positive environment without forcing interactions or putting dogs in situations where they may feel uncomfortable or overwhelmed. I'm also more than happy to provide regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel reassured while you're away. I know what it's like to worry about leaving your pets in someone else's care, especially when they have unique needs. My goal is to provide the same patience, understanding, love, and attention that I've dedicated to my own dogs, while making sure both you and your pet feel safe and comfortable!

About: I've had pets my entire life and feel very comfortable with them! I grew up cat sitting for my neighbors, family and friends. Any cat or dog I've met I love like my own! I would love to take care of your pet- young, old, big and small! I currently work a full-time job but work from home three days a week. I am available for an hour between 8-5 and am free any time after 5pm! I am in office on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, so I am free after 5pm on those days. Weekends are pretty flexible! I will provide your pet with cuddles, pets, feedings and groom them regularly! I will take your pup for walks and have play time to get their energy out so they can take a solid nap while you're out of the house! I will spoil your cat or dog with lots of attention so they don't miss you too much!

“Abhay was available at the last minute to take care of my cats.”

“Cheyana responded quickly to my last minute request and set up a Meet and Greet for later that day. Cheyana came promptly as scheduled and took my dog for a nice walk. There were no issues and my dog was really happy!!! Would definitely hire Cheyana again!”

“Kat did a wonderful job taking care of our two siamese cats. They are really needy, but were in great spirits when we got back. Kat was always on time and sent plenty of pictures while we were away. The food area and litter boxes were spotlessly clean and so was our apartment.”

About: Hi! My name is naomi, i am 26 and live in the greater boston area. I have joined Rover because I have loved animals , and spending time with animals for my entire life. I have had dogs all throughout my life and constantly walked my dogs on a regular basis. I also have had a dog with behavioral issues so i know how to work with all different dogs and understand that they all have different needs. I currently have 2 cats and have had cats my whole life so I am also very accustomed to taking care of cats as well as dogs! I hope to meet some incredible animals and keep them happy! My schedule is very flexible currently as I am between jobs. I also have a vehicle which makes traveling to you and your lovely pets much simpler! I ensure my pet is feeling safe and happy at all times to the best of my ability. I walk and feed the dogs and ensure they are cleaned if necessary. If I also make sure that the animal (cat or dog) has been fed and has enough water, and ensure their water is clean. If I am taking care of a cat, I would ensure their litter box is cleaned at least once a day.

“Sydney was amazing coming in last minute when my flight got delayed. First time booking with someone on Rover and it was so easy, she was super kind and helpful!!”

About: I recently graduated from Ohio State with a degree in animal science and a pre-vet concentration. I am planning to go to vet school and have a lot of experience with all different kinds of animals specifically within veterinary medicine. I work at a vet hospital as an assistant so I am more than comfortable administering medication and caring for senior animals. I have been boarding and walking dogs for the past eight years. I am comfortable with all different kinds of dogs and their needs. I am very active and love to be outside so I will make sure to take your dog on many walks and other outdoor activities, including hiking and swimming. I also have experience training dogs and am able to keep any routine that you have. Please feel free to send me an approximate daily schedule that I can follow with your pet so the transition is as stress less and comfortable as possible. I am home full time so your pet will have my undivided attention. A typical day consists of at least four walks and a lot of quality time and cuddles. I often go on hikes or will take my own dog swimming whenever the weather is nice out. As I have a dog of my own, my home is dog proofed and safe for any age. it is not fenced in, but if you want your dog to relax outside during the day, I do have a long leash that I can use.

About: Preferred Name: Del I adore animals, and as far as I can tell the feeling is mutual. Roommates, partners, and friends are always impressed by how quickly their pets take to me and jokingly complain that I'm "stealing" them away. I've cared for pets in my family since I was 12. I'm an enthusiastic walker and I'm adamant about keeping cats and dogs stimulated with playtime. Currently between jobs so my schedule is very flexible. As such, I'm free to devote all I can to taking care of your lovely critters. I make visits and house stays as appropriate. Meticulous about following pet care instructions to a T as you know your pet better than I ever could. Will make sure that your pet is stimulated, fed, loved, and cared for so that your absence goes hopefully as unnoticed as possible.
