Cat Sitting in Forest Park

“As a pet parent to a very shy and timid cat, I was anxious about leaving her while we were away. However, Melinda was absolutely wonderful. She respected our cat’s need for space and never forced interaction. Despite our cat hiding the entire time during her visits, she diligently followed all care instructions ensuring food, water, and litter were perfect and sent daily updates and photos to put our mind at ease. If you have a nervous or reserved pet, she’s the perfect sitter! Thank you Melinda for your calm, attentive care and for giving us peace of mind. I’ll definitely be reaching out again in the future!”

“Alaina is an excellent pet sitter who will take great care of your furry family members. From the moment I met her, I was impressed by her warmth and friendliness. She did a wonderful job with my sweet kitty! While I was away for the weekend, she took fantastic care of my cat and sent me numerous photos and updates. When I returned home, my cat was relaxed and content, which truly speaks to Alaina's exceptional pet-sitting skills. I'll definitely be using Alaina in the future!”

“Absolutely the best cat sitter I've had on this app. She got along so well with our kitties, was able to deliver medicine to our elder Sassy cat (no easy feat), did the kitty chores diligently every time she was over, and the has the best price for her rate. Cannot recommend her enough!”

“Molly did a great job taking care of our cat. She was very responsive and kept us updated with photos to let us know she was doing well. Would recommend her to anyone who needs a cat sitter!”

“Desere did an excellent job and took great care of my cats! She is a fantastic sitter!”

“Kristine is simply wonderful. Our 18 year old tabby is in need of sub q fluids and not only was Kristine extremely gentle and kind with her, but she also helped us with giving her pills as well. Highly recommend connecting with Kristine.”

“Mimi did a great job for us and we will definitely use her again. My dogs had a great time on walks with her. 5 STARS!!”

“Justin & Catherine were amazing! They were beyond professional & thorough with their questions on how to care for our dog. They made sure what was the best way to go about it. They sent us daily pictures & updated us to the T. so glad we found them!”

“This was our second booking with Jill. My family and I are so grateful to have found her. She is mature, responsible and loves what she does. Jill has become friends with both of my cats, which says a lot because one of them is extremely anxious around visitors. Jill is also a terrific communicator. I am able to relax knowing that I will get a detailed Rover Card with pictures and comments after each visit. We will definitely book with Jill again.”

“Isabelle was great! She made the time to come meet my pet ahead of my trip, always communicated well and overall was a breeze to coordinate with!”

“From the second i enter Renee’s home I was at ease. We got Ravioii settled in his room. Ravioli had a spa experience for sure. He had access to the catio so he was able to lounge outside in the sun and watch the squirrels run up and down the trees! Renee was so attentive with Ravioli. Her son played with him as well. Her son even drew a welcome sign for my precious kitty. She sent me videos and pic everyday Renee is super sweet and amazing with Kitties. If your looking for a great person to take care of your beloved kitty, Renee is your girl!!! Perfection is all i can say. Everything you would want and need for your cat will be taken care of with lots of love.”

“Genesis was great with our little kitty. She was boarding some other animals over the holiday but was always super on top of it answering all of our questions and making sure we our girl was taken care of. The most important thing for us is feeling like our pets are at home when they are away from home - and Genesis”

“Thank you for taking care of Bear during this Christmas holiday.”

“I would recommend Bridget any day! Not only does she love the animals that she meets instantly, she is extremely responsible and an enthusiastic individual. Stellar and sweet individual, definitely would recommend!”

About: I've had pets basically my entire life. We've had cats, dogs, birds, fish, a rat, and snakes! I miss being around cats SO much, as ours unfortunately passed away. They are my favorite animals in the whole world, I feel as if they are the animals I can most connect with. I have taken care of my friends' cat when she has had to go on trips. When my family goes on trips, I take care of our pets (currently 3 dogs, 1 parrot, 2 bunnies, and 6 fish). I'm currently working part-time, just two days a week and school barely occupies my schedule. If I got the opportunity to leave the house with the purpose of hanging out with cats, I would drop EVERYTHING just to do so! Your feline friends are safe with me.💗🐱 I'd make sure your kitties are safe and comfortable, making sure to see if they're bothered in any way (ex. airplane ears, wagging tail, fur pointed upwards, hissing, upset meowing, etc). I understand cats are one of the few animals who set their own boundaries with humans. Some may not know how they set those boundaries but it's just according to their body language and apparent willingness to hang out with you! This will 100% come into play when cat-sitting, as it's a very important aspect to understanding their unique personalities.

“Jaclyn is one of the most kind and caring souls you’ll meet! She is fantastic with animals and treats each one of them as if they are her own. My two senior dogs love spending time with her, especially. Sometimes I think they are disappointed when they see me coming to take them home! Couldn’t recommend a better person to take care of your fur baby!”

“Mikey was amazing! He took care of our cats for a week. He kept us informed of everything that happened and sent me a picture everyday. He also took care of small trees we are growing to create a mini forest and they all look great! He even put one package that arrived inside the house and checked that my new dripline was working properly and my other plants were fine. We live in a ranch and nature for us is also a big concern when we leave so it was great to find someone like him to make sure everything survived this hot summer. Definitely will call him next we leave.”

“I really appreciate Sarah as a pet caregiver on Rover.com. My dog, Ziggy, lights up with joy whenever she looks after him during my trips and remembers her by name. Sarah's genuine love and exceptional care for Ziggy have brought me immense peace of mind when I am not at home. She not only follows instructions meticulously but also goes the extra mile to ensure his happiness and well-being. I wholeheartedly recommend Sarah to anyone seeking a responsible and loving pet caregiver.”

“Annie is AMAZING! She made our trip so relaxing, we didnt have to worry about felix for a minute. She sent us pictures during every drop-in visit, and he looked like he was having a blast, playing and hanging out with her. She was obviously very patient with him, since he is a newly rescued veryy skitish kitten, and she managed to gain his trust in two days. We are so happy we found her, she will def be our 1st choice for future services.”
