“Emily took excellent care of Pico while we were traveling. She is very caring towards animals and kept Pico well-accompanied. We also received adorable pictures of Pico. We would definitely book with Emily again.”


“Gwinevere was very responsive, kind, and thorough taking care of Smokey. I received a lot of photos and updates while I was gone, and Smokey was very happy to spend time with her while I was away! Thank you so much, Gwinevere!”



“Payton is the best !! Not only is she reliable, professional, detail-oriented, and communicative but she has that extra “spark” which comes only from being a true animal lover. I could feel her genuine care and enjoyment come through in every interaction from our initial phone call to her daily summary messages and photos while caring for them. That gave me so much peace of mind and made it easier to be away because I knew my babies were getting a real cat lover’s attention back home! I especially recommend her for people with shy cats who may be nervous about leaving them in someone else’s care—Payton has such a patient and gentle presence that even my shyest kitty felt safe with her.”


“Alexa took AMAZING care of our two cats. She was incredibly communicative, thoughtful, and easy to work with. She sent us great updates and pictures. This was our first time using Rover so we weren't quite sure what to expect. As soon as we met Alexa, we felt very comfortable leaving our cats in her care. We highly recommend Alexa and look forward to working with her again!”



“Jasmine was incredibly professional and caring with our cats. This is our second time working with her, and we are very pleased with the attention and care our cats received during her visits. Will definitely book again!”


“Wen is a fantastic pet sitter. Very friendly and on time. Shes really great with Pepsi, took time with her and I felt very safe knowing she was looking out for her while I was away.”


“Iris was incredibly professional from the first few messages, the one time there was a delay in arriving for the check in they let me know much earlier. My cats Maya and Pure looked very happy in the pictures they sent and a lot of pics were sent! My cats knocked over a plant and she let me know and vacuumed it up! I cannot recommend Iris enough, they truly went above and beyond!”


“I’ve booked Yiming a few times and she always does a great job! My cat is 20 years old and I have such peace of mind knowing Yiming will be checking in on her.”


“Steven is the BEST cat sitter!! My cat OK is very shy and picky on who she likes to get close to- Steven has a magic power to make my cat really relaxed and happy! Steven is the most detail-oriented sitter, who sent me lots of details about OK’s situation as well as the cutest photos, and made the most effort to make OK comfortable and happy. Will definitely book again with Steven!”


“Nia is so amazing I’m thankful she was available for Leo once again. There is nothing like knowing you fur baby is in caring hands when you need to go away for a few days! Thanks again Nia for being Leo’s friend and caretaker!”


“Katherine was a great help for my cat, she followed my instructions & communicated with pictures too! I’m happy she was able to check in while I’m away, I would rebook again!”


“Clifmon took great of my two cats. He was polite, professional, and communicated with photos while I was away. When I came home from my trip, my apartment was clean and my cats were relaxed, completely themselves, and totally fine! I highly recommend using him to take care of your pets!”


“Emily was a great sitter for my senior cat. She was very responsive and administered her medications, including subq fluids, gave her lots of cuddles and followed her somewhat complicated feeding schedule like a pro! She even went above and beyond, spending a little extra time with my cat during her drop in visits. Highly recommend!”


About: I’m a patient, loving sitter with experience caring for senior dogs and their unique needs. Whether it’s administering medication, offering gentle walks, or just being a calming presence, I’m dedicated to making older pups feel safe and comfortable. At the same time, I’m young and active, so I’m more than happy to match the energy of playful, high-energy pets. I treat every dog like family and always prioritize their well-being and happiness. I work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to dedicate quality time to pet care throughout the week. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and being a sitter lets me do something I love while staying active and helpful in my community. I’m reliable, communicative, and always make sure pets feel cared for and comfortable in my care! Since I have two cats at home, I prefer to care for pets in their own space through drop-in visits or home stays. I find that pets are often most comfortable in their familiar environment, and I do my best to keep their routines consistent and stress-free. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, walks, or just keeping them company, I treat every visit with care and attention.

“Jill is an amazing cat-sitter. Friendly, kind, and detailed. Highly recommended. ☺️”


“Gigi is great. I’m so happy my cat has her to come take care of her multiple times a week! Gigi is kind caring attentive punctual and a great communicator. So happy we have her :)”


“Excellent as always! This is the second time Charlie's cat sit for us and they were consistent, reliable, and took such cute photos of our cats! We would definitely use Charlie again.”


About: I have been around animals large and small since I was a child. Being a pet owner myself I take pride in the care I give my own animals as well as other’s furry friends. I have been an avid pet sitter and parent for 10 years now, providing services to my neighborhood, but now I wish to reach out to the cville community! Due to my job I am very flexible and can be available the majority of the hours in a day. My daily schedule can be worked on to fit what you and your pet need in it. I treat my clients pets to the specific instructions left for me and treat my clients home with care and caution. I am always a guest and never make myself too at home and always clean up after myself in a “leave no trace behind” style.

“Adriana was wonderful! I’m happy, my cat is happy, what else to ask for? Easy communication, on time check-ins! 10 out of 10, highly recommend.”


About: Hi! I’m Rosaria. I’ve had cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and over the years I’ve cared for so many different kinds: snuggly lap cats, shy rescues, wild kittens, senior sweethearts, and everything in between. I really believe that every cat has their own personality, and I always take the time to meet them where they’re at. I’ve watched cats with special diets, given medication when needed, and cared for older cats with gentle attention. One cat I regularly looked after wouldn’t touch wet food, so I prepped fresh meals for her like steamed fish or boiled chicken. I’m confident handling special dietary needs as well as regular dry food or standard wet food, whether it comes in cans or pouches. Whatever your cat is used to, I’ll make sure their routine stays consistent and stress-free. I also genuinely love spending time with cats. If your cat is playful, I’m happy to keep them engaged with whatever toys or enrichment you have. Catnip mice, wand toys, or puzzle feeders—I’ll make sure they stay active and entertained. Whether they’re energetic or just need a little stimulation, I always try to make sure they feel happy, safe, and seen. What really sets me apart: • Lifelong experience with cats of all temperaments • Calm, patient energy that puts cats at ease • Confident with special diets, raw food, canned or pouched wet food, and dry food • I send regular photo and video updates • I’m respectful of your home and your cat’s unique routine and personality Every cat deserves care that’s tailored to them, and that’s what I bring. Let me know what your cat needs. I’d love to meet them and give them the care they deserve. I’m a college student currently off for the summer with plenty of free time to care for your pets. Currently, my primary focus is pet sitting, so I’m available most of the time to provide your cats with the attention and care they deserve. When school starts again in the fall, I plan to offer pet sitting and drop-in visits during afternoons and evenings on weekdays, and all day on weekends. I’m excited to incorporate pet care into my routine because I genuinely love spending time with animals and ensuring they’re happy and comfortable. When caring for pets in your home, I make sure to follow your routines closely—feeding, playtime, medication, and any special needs. I respect your space and keep everything tidy, so your home feels just as comfortable as when you’re there. I give your pets plenty of attention, play, and affection to help them feel safe and happy while you’re away. If pets stay with me, I provide a calm and cozy environment with lots of love and care. I keep their usual schedule as much as possible to reduce stress and help them feel at home. Whether it’s playtime, naps, or meals, I make sure they get the attention they need and enjoy their stay. If a cat is anxious or scared, I always respect their space and approach them with gentle, calm energy to avoid adding stress. I use quiet voices, slow movements, and let the cat come to me on their own terms. Sometimes, just sitting quietly nearby or offering treats helps build trust and comfort.

I was nervous leaving Apollo since she’s a little picky and tends to hide, but Rosaria made her feel totally at ease. She kept me updated with sweet photos and notes the whole time, which I really appreciated. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat and a super tidy apartment. It was clear Apollo was well taken care of and got lots of love. I’d definitely book with Rosaria again! :)”
