Cat Sitting in Elwood

“Becky is amazing! After scouring Rover reviews looking for someone with cat experience for our beautiful girl Matilda, I found Becky. She was kind, communicative, and went out of her way to make Matilda feel at home during her stay. They even gave her her own room to stay in, which was fabulous. And despite two delays in our trip, Becky was super gracious in accommodating these changes. I cannot stress enough how thankful I am to find good people! And Becky is good people. Matilda enjoyed herself. Thank you so much!”

“Jessica did a great job looking after my fur babies while I was out of town. She made sure to reach out if she had questions and gave my kittens lots of treats and play time!”

“Nia put me at ease as soon as I met her! My cat has medical needs and she was so accommodating, judgement free, communicated if there was any concerns, and always kept me feeling like my boy was taken care of so I could enjoy my vacation. There are few people I trust him in the care of and I would book her ten times over. Can’t recommend her enough.”

“Sonja was terrific! She stayed with our cat Jingle for 3 weeks while we were on vacation. She communicated well, sent photo updates, cleaned house, watered plants and cleaned up Jingle’s, umm, dead critters in the house! She went above and beyond what was expected and I would recommend her whole heartedly!! Thanks, Sonja😍”

“Chris is an amazing sitter! This was my first time using Rover and he put me right at ease. He took such good care of my kitty and sent me pictures all throughout the stay. He also left my place in great condition and was very flexible with timing. I highly recommend him!”

About: I have dog sat all types of dogs biggest being a Great Dane and the smallest a Chihuahua. I am very open to dog sitting any dog! I am currently working full time at the college of dentistry but I get off work at 5 everyday and have weekends and holidays off. I live in an apartment so I wouldn’t be able to board your dogs but I am very respectful of someone’s home and will take great care of your dogs.

“Sierra was a wonderful pet sitter. Both of my kitties loved her which is a rare occurrence. She kept quick communication with me the entire stay and went above and beyond to help my kitties feel comfortable and loved.”

“Amanda was very reliable and great with communication. It’s always scary not knowing someone well and having them stay at your house with your pets and she over exceeded our expectations. We appreciate it! Will definitely keep her on our list for the future!!”

About: Growing up on a farm, I’ve always had a big heart for all types of animals! I have rescued kittens and other animals since I was young, and there has never been a time in my life where I did not have a pet to care for. My full time job is only 2 days a week, so the rest of my time can be focused on your pet. I walk my own dogs daily and love to be outdoors, so there isn’t a request to far fetched! (Pun intended) Your preferences and concerns will always be the forefront of discussions on how I will care for your beloved fur baby. I’m willing to treat them as my own and no request is too much to ask, after all you are entrusting me with your best friend!

About: I've had different types of pets my whole life - dogs, cats, ferrets, horses, etc. I harbor so much love and passion for animals and positive care. I have experience as kennel staff at a vet clinic where I fed and cleaned up after cats & dogs, and walked & bathed dogs as needed. I've cared for puppies, kittens, as well as senior cats and dogs. I have experience giving medication such as pills, chewables, liquid oral meds with a syringe, and insulin shots for a diabetic cat. I work full-time as a paraeducator, so while school is out my schedule is pretty flexible for the summer to pet-sit and go on routine walks with pets as needed. Caring for pets in my clients' homes, I calmly greet pets upon arrival so I don't over-excite them. I follow owners' specific instructions thoroughly to ensure safe and proper care for each animal and their individual needs. If I am letting animals out for a walk or into a yard, I check to make sure fences/gates and that leashes/tie-out lines are safe and secure before having the pets go outside.

“Erin did a superior “job” watching over our cat, Hillary , and our home while we were gone. She kept in touch with photos and notes. Erin is very much the professional sitter.”

About: I’ve had a dogs in my life, since I was a child, and was introduced to cats as I ventured into the collegiate life. As an adult I have cared for dogs primarily, but recently had the opportunity to take care of the sweetest cats! I am fairly patient with pets and like to give them as much space as they like to try to not mess up the routines, but if they are balls of energy and cuddle bugs, I am more than happy to comply! I believe that walks and healthy roaming space is good for a dog’s, development and energy, and respecting a cat to make the first move to ensure respect and comfort to their environment. Hi! I’m a full-time high school interpreter and a lifelong animal lover. During the school year, I spend my days helping students thrive in the classroom — and now that summer’s here, I’m excited to dedicate my time to caring for your pets! I like doing research on the neighborhoods that I’m going into if it’s a new area, and like to understand what you have available, either a dog park, or a fenced backyard, to really understand how to best care for your dog. My dog is a big ball of energy so I have learned a lot of skills to be able to make sure that they stay in their assigned spaces, I do like to keep them with me on my lap as I work, or nearby letting them enjoy a nap.

“Kaylee was a great sitter for our dogs. She made sure they were taken care of and did everything possible to keep them happy pups! I’d definitely recommend her.”

Kate B.

“Shelly is Awesome! You couldn’t ask for a more reliable and attentive caregiver! I highly recommend her. She cared for my two kitties, both are very old and fragile and I felt confident that they were well cared for!”
