About: Helping friends when they travel, neighbors too. I'm the one who they call. Animals and kids have always been drawn to me. I'm authentic, down to earth and passionate about animals. I will treat your kids (pets) like they are my kids (pets). With love, patience and kindness. I have cats of my own. I spend all day, every day with them. I have a flexible schedule so can adjust according to the needs of my clients. I cater to the needs of the client and the pet. I do not have a set routine. Each pet and owner are different. I will work with each client individually, based on their requirements and needs

I currently have open weekends and work a 9/80 schedule allowing me to be off every other Friday and available to help your pets! I provide attentive, loving care by following each pet’s routine, ensuring safety, clean environments, regular exercise, fresh water, meals, medication support, and consistent communication with owners.

“Perla was amazing taking care of my two cats. I was gone for two weeks, she kept up with communication, pictures, and how my cats were doing. Even though the initial booking was for once a day drop in visits, she was able to accommodate and do drop in visits twice daily instead, on request. Will definitely book with her again when needed.”
“We could not be happier with the attention and care taken while we were away. This was our first time away from the cats, and their first time without us. When we returned they were happy, running around, tails in the air, and acting normal as if nothing different had happened. Maybe a little hurt they didn't seem to mind us being away, but that is all the better. We'll be back with Alyssa next years vacation, without any questions or hesitation.”
“Trinity was thoughtful, considerate of our home and dogs, and did an absolutely wonderful job communicating and meeting our needs as dog owners while also nurturing our pups. She truly went above and beyond by leaving our home looking neat and giving our dogs excellent care. I especially appreciated all the photos and videos she shared. We have officially found our dog sitter!”

Forest Park cat parents share their Rover experiences
This was the second time we asked Yelda to take care of our cat, and once again, she was absolutely wonderful! Yelda is incredibly responsible, attentive, and caring. It gives us such peace of mind knowing our cat is in safe, loving hands while we are away. She kept us updated and took amazing care of everything. We will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you so much, Yelda!
Chelsea took wonderful care of my cat and was reliable, attentive, and kind throughout the whole stay. She made me feel comfortable knowing my cat was in good hands, and I truly appreciated her care and communication. I would definitely trust her again and highly recommend her. If you want, I can make it warmer, more personal, or even shorter for Rover.
