Cat Sitting Edgewater Park

“My kitties were happy and healthy when I returned from vacation. They are shy and I am sure it may be discomforting to not actually see them, but Nicole takes great care nonetheless. Thank you!!”

About: With over 20 years of experience, caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’ve been around dogs since I was 7 years old, starting with family pets and eventually helping neighbors with their dogs throughout middle school and into adulthood. Even today, I still help friends and neighbors care for their dogs and cats regularly. I also had the opportunity to care for my own cat for 4 years, which gave me a strong understanding of feline personalities, routines, and comfort needs as well. After taking some time away in 2025 due to family circumstances, I’m excited to be back in 2026 doing something I genuinely enjoy, providing pets with a safe, loving, and fun environment where they feel at home. I currently work Full-Time from home - So I am always present, and able to keep your pet on a nice schedule regarding food, play-time, and potty breaks. I'm available Monday-Sunday anytime that works best for you My home features a downstairs area where pets can roam freely. Also my development offers plenty of walking space. Plus, there are many parks nearby that provide a great spot for your pets to enjoy some running time with my family and me.

“Kaile was great! I needed someone to sit with my old dog while I ran some errands. Kaile was prompt, trustworthy, and pleasant and most importantly, my dog loved her. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”

About: For the past 10 years, I’ve taken care of not only my family dogs, but my neighbors’ cats and dogs. Most pets tend to take a liking to me from the start, which makes this less of a job and more of something that I enjoy doing. I’m currently working full-time 9-5 Mon-Fri so… House sitting: Strictly weekends starting Friday nights going into Sunday night Drop-in visits & Dog walking: Anytime after 5:30pm Mon-Fri & full availability on Sat and Sun Having previous work experience caring for animals allows me to truly understand the level of attention that needs to be given to your pets. I can ensure your pets’ safety and well-being in my presence, while also providing a mentally and physically stimulating time for them

“Ava did a great job with my senior Kitty. The communication was very good and she sent the cutest photos. She is reliable and also a veterinary student. This made me feel so comfortable. I would definitely book her again!🐾”

About: I’ve cared for dogs for friends and family over the past 17 years, including overnight stays with me on weekends. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime and following each dog’s normal routine. I’m dependable, attentive and genuinely love animals—and they tend to love me right back! I’ll treat your pup like family and make sure they feel safe, happy and loved while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make pet care a priority. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings and weekends depending on your pet’s needs. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and your home. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable and well cared for. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos while you’re away.

About: What truly sets me apart is my professional background. As a special education teacher with seven years of experience in the classroom, patience, structure, and the ability to adapt to individual needs are woven into everything I do. I bring that exact same mindset to pet care. I understand that every animal learns and communicates differently, and I excel at reading body language and adjusting my approach to make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and comfortable. ​Alongside having pets my entire life, I have spent the last 8 years providing dedicated pet care for family members and neighbors. Because of my teaching background, I am highly reliable when it comes to maintaining strict daily routines. This makes me particularly well-equipped to handle the unique needs of different life stages: ​Senior Care: I am incredibly patient and comfortable maintaining the slow, gentle pacing and strict medication or dietary schedules that senior pets often require to thrive in their golden years. ​Puppy Care & Training: I thrive on consistency and positive reinforcement. I am highly capable of maintaining the firm but gentle boundaries, frequent potty breaks, and structured play that young pets need while they are still learning their manners. ​Whether your pet needs quiet, gentle companionship or structured, engaging play, I have the experience, reliability, and heart to provide care that is perfectly tailored to them. I believe in complete transparency regarding my schedule so you know exactly when your pet is receiving my undivided attention: Summer Hours (Now – August): I am currently working a shorter schedule and am fully available for walks, drop-ins, and playtime every day after 1:30 PM. Fall Hours (Starting in September): I will be working my regular full-time schedule until 4:00 PM. However, my evenings will be completely open and dedicated to after-work walks, dinner routines, and evening companionship! I look forward to meeting your best friend and providing them with the highest level of care! I know firsthand that leaving your furry family members can be stressful. My goal is to provide a safe, engaging, and loving environment so you can have complete peace of mind while you are away. I treat every animal in my care with the exact same affection and attentiveness I give my own. My Experience I have been surrounded by pets my entire life, which has given me a deep, intuitive understanding of the daily care, patience, and affection animals require. For the past 8 years, I have been the trusted, go-to pet sitter for my neighbors and extended family. This hands-on experience has taught me how to adapt to different temperaments, respect established household rules, and quickly recognize when a pet might be feeling anxious. As a special education teacher, patience, compassion, and structure are at the core of who I am—and I bring those same qualities into how I care for your pets.

About: I have been an animal advocate since I was volunteering at the PSPCA during my childhood. I’m a former Humane Police Officer in Philadelphia. I’m a very experienced with pretty much any animal. Friendly and caring. I’m currently on medical disability and have a pretty flexible schedule minus a few appointments here and there. I am trying to get some part time gigs. I current have a cat of my own, a foster cat and 7 fish tanks. I’m highly experienced in animal care and husbandry. I have much passion, care and respect for animals. I take pride for the hundreds of all kinds of animals I rescued.

About: My extensive experience in pet care is founded on a deeply rooted love for animals and a commitment to providing top-notch service. What sets me apart from other sitters is my personalized approach tailored to each pet's unique needs and personality. Whether it's walking a puppy, or providing gentle care for senior pets, I have a versatile skill set that ensures every furry friend in my care receives the attention and support they deserve. My ability to adapt to various situations and my keen understanding of animal behavior enable me to create a safe and comfortable environment where pets thrive. Don't think I just stop at Cats and Dogs! I was a professional pet sitter for years and have watched and cared for Guinea Pigs, Hamsters, Fishes and a Pigeon (yes even a pigeon). I currently have 8 year old cat Begbie (gorgeous, grumpy and full of sass) 2 1/2 year old cat Dexter (always has his tuxedo on ready to crash events and full of spice) 3 guinea pigs (Norman, Joel and Donnie), they currently reside in their own room (with fences around the outlets), where they have plenty of room to forage, hide, run, whatever their tiny hearts desire. In essence, my passion for pets, sets me apart as a pet sitter who goes above and beyond to exceed expectations and provide peace of mind to pet owners. One of the biggest perks of having a flexible schedule right now? I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve! I currently have very flexible daytime/nighttime availability, which means I can accommodate a variety of pet-sitting needs, including drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of companionship. I’m also able to spend extra time with pets who need a little more attention or simply don’t enjoy being left alone for long periods. Need someone to stop by during the day? I’m your person! Have a pet who needs multiple visits? Let’s talk! Have a senior pet who needs a little extra TLC? Absolutely! Have a furry friend who thinks a 20-minute visit is simply unacceptable? I understand their demands. 😂 Because my schedule is flexible, I’m happy to work with you to create a routine that keeps your pets comfortable and maintains as much of their normal schedule as possible. Your schedule may be busy. Mine is currently wide open—and your pets are more than welcome to fill it! 🐶🐱🐹🐦 Availability varies by day and booking, so please reach out and let’s see what works best for you and your pets. Whether I’m caring for your pet in their home or caring for my own in our home, my number-one priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and completely spoiled—in the best possible way! I believe keeping their routine as normal as possible is key. I follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, litter box care, playtime, and any special routines your pet has. I also make sure they get plenty of attention and companionship because I know pets can miss their humans just as much as humans miss them. I pay close attention to behavior and look for anything unusual, such as changes in appetite, energy, bathroom habits, or mood. If something doesn’t seem right, I’ll let you know promptly. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would my own—clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I have experience with cats and small animals and understand that every pet has a different comfort level. Some want to play, some want cuddles, some want to explore, and some would prefer to stare at me from across the room while silently judging my life choices. I respect all of these personalities! 😂 Most importantly, I don’t believe pet sitting is simply checking a box on a to-do list. It’s about building trust, providing companionship, following your pet’s routine, and making sure they feel happy and secure while you’re away. You enjoy your time away. I’ll handle the treats, belly rubs, zoomies, and occasional feline attitude. 🐾

“Seana was our first rover sitter and made the entire trip seamless and peaceful. Her communication was prompt, professional and left us feeling secure that we left our pets in the best hands possible. From the first message about potential meet and greets to the daily check-in’s she was wonderful. We will be using her again when we need a sitter as she was extremely trustworthy and kind to our boys!”

“We just returned home from vacation, and in the meantime left our cat, Mister T in the care of pet sitter Stephanie S. We were extremely pleased with the level of care that Stephanie provided. Rover is a professional, well-organized operation, and I am very happy that I found them and Stephanie. In advance of our trip, Stephanie conducted a meet-and-greet with me and Mister T in our home. During the trip, I received reports and pictures about how everything was going after each visit. Stephanie was absolutely amazing and understanding of Mister T's needs. She is knowledgeable about how to care for cats and pets in general. I learned so much from her during our conversations which will make me a better cat mom!! I cannot be happier with the service she provided. I highly recommend Rover, and will definitely call them again each time we go out of town. Thank you for everything! Vanessa D”
