Cat Sitting Foster

About: I have been pet sitting since I was 16 years old. I am often asked by coworkers of family to house sit during their vacations. I have pet sat dogs, cats, fish, and even chickens! I am comfortable waking, giving medication, and cuddling (my personal favorite), whatever your pup needs! I have two dogs of my own. One of my dogs is a senior and is high need due to his bone cancer. He requires daily medication and will until we are able to remove the leg. My other pup is a rambunctious lab, who is high drive and needs daily stimulation so he doesn’t anger his older brother. I often take him on walks or use the pond near our home to tire him out! I am used to house sitting in all types of homes. If your pup needs a daily walk I am can do that. If they’re an outside pup we can take a walk or even a hike! I stay at the home and don’t leave often. I ask that a physical copy of directions are left so that I can give the 100% proper care and able to contact through phone as well!

“Blair was absolutely phenomenal with our boy!! Kojo is a high energy dog and she played with him for hours which he loved! Blair was timely, had amazing communication with us, sent photos and updates and was so dependable, thoughtful, kind and just absolutely awesome!!! We will absolutely endorse her for anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter and we will most definitely be repeat customers. ❤️ THANK YOU BLAIR!!!!”

“Allie is amazing! She is a true animal lover and right when we met her, we knew she would take great care of our cat! Our cat is super shy but Allie did a great job of getting him to warm up to her- she’s very patient and does a great job of figuring out what will make our cat comfortable. Our cat also takes a pill for his asthma and Allie was able to administer this to him while we were gone (which is not easy to do because our cat does NOT like taking it!) Allie is kind, very reliable, and communicative. I hope to have her pet sit for us again and I’d highly recommend her to anyone!”

“Ashley was awesome. I would definitely recommend her and book her again! She was super attentive and caring to our dog while we were away. She sent pics and took our dog for a walk everyday. Super kind and responsive. No issues at all. 😊”

“Harley seemed to have a good visit with Hannah! It was a semi-long day for Harley in the crate, but he was still tired for bed which means he must of had a good energy release when Hannah visited.”

“Our cats love Kristen! Seriously, we all wondered if maybe they would have forgotten her in the nearly half a year since she last cared for them, but apparently not! I'm not surprised that they immediately begged for attention the moment she walked in the door. All of ours are quite taken with her, but especially our more timid cats! Which is great to see when we're gone that they still get love and attention. We've rebooked with Kristen, and will do so again in the future for certain. It's great knowing that someone is keeping an eye on the house, any random deliveries and making sure that the cats are happy and healthy while we're traveling. If you need a pet sitter, get Kristen!”

About: Hi, I’m AJ, a lifelong pet lover with experience caring for dogs and cats. I’ve had pets since childhood and have house-sat for neighbors, family, and friends, ensuring their pets were happy and well cared for. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your pets and home in someone else’s hands. I’ll provide attentive care, keep your pets happy and comfortable, and ensure your home stays safe and well-maintained. I’m also happy to send regular updates so you always know how things are going. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets—feel free to reach out! My 9-5 job is fully remote, which means I’ll be around to keep your pets company throughout the day. I’m available most days of the week and am happy to travel and stay in your home to ensure your pets feel safe and comfortable in their own space. I live in a quiet, two-bedroom condo with no other pets, making it a comfortable space to board cats and small/medium dogs. Since I work from home, I can provide plenty of attention all day, and take your dogs outside regularly for walks and fresh air. I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s routine, including crating if needed. I also offer house sitting to keep your pets comfortable in their own home while you’re away.

About: If your pet could choose their own sitter, I’d like to think we’d be friends. 🐾✨ Leaving your pet behind can be stressful, but my goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and cared for while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I currently share my home with three cats and an energetic Lab/Boxer puppy. I have over two years of foster experience and have cared for up to 13 cats at once, giving me hands-on experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and temperaments. I also volunteer walking shelter dogs, giving me experience with dogs of all temperaments, sizes, and backgrounds. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, patience, and love. I believe every pet deserves personalized care, and I’ll take the time to get to know their routine, quirks, and preferences. Whether your pet loves constant attention or prefers their own space, I’ll provide care that makes them feel safe and comfortable. I specialize in: ✅ Drop-in Visits: Every 30 minute visit includes a photo update, fresh water, potty break, playtime, and a full report card. Not just a quick hello! ✅ House Sitting: I provide daytime check-ins every 4–6 hours for meals, potty breaks, and playtime, plus overnight companionship so your pet never feels alone in their own home. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates throughout my stay so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and in good hands. ✅ 30 minute Dog Walks: a fun stroll around your neighborhood or nearby trail with a mid-walk photo update and enough exercise and mental stimulation to keep your pup happy all day. ✅ Medication administration ✅ Feeding routines ✅ Litter box care ✅ Senior pets ✅ Shy or anxious pets ✅ Puppies & high-energy dogs New to Rover, not new to pets —building my reviews one happy pup & cat at a time. 🐾 Pet care isn’t something I fit around my day , it is my day. As a stay at home sitter with a fully flexible schedule, I’m available seven days a week, mornings through evenings, with no rushing off to a separate job in between. This means your pet isn’t waiting hours for their next check-in or walk. I can accommodate early morning drop-ins, midday visits, evening walks, and last minute requests without it being a disruption to my routine. For house sitting, being home-based means your pet gets consistent, attentive company throughout the entire stay not just the hours before and after a 9 to 5. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. Since I offer in-home visits, walks, and overnight stays in your home, your pet remains in their familiar environment, which helps reduce stress and keeps their daily routine consistent. I take time to understand each pet’s specific needs, including feeding schedules, medication instructions, behavior preferences, and any household rules. I also make sure doors, gates, and entry points are handled carefully and responsibly at all times. During every visit or overnight stay, I maintain a calm and attentive presence so your pet feels secure and cared for. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos so you always know how things are going while you’re away. My goal is to provide dependable care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind.

About: I am new to the area! I have had an extensive foster care history over the past 3 years prior to relocating. I adore all fur babies but have the most experience with elder and special needs pups. I love animals, big and small. I have my own sweetheart pup and live with two cat friends (plus a lizard). I work as a nurse. Medication administration is no problem at all if needed as well. Please help cure my foster withdrawal and let me be there for your furry family members! I currently am taking a break from full time nursing to focus on enjoying life more. With advance notice, I can be available most days/times. Don’t let that discourage same day requests though! I take the time to learn pet needs and enjoy getting to know their personalities. The approach I use for each animal is based on what they respond best to. I encourage families to share likes and dislikes of their animal friends to promote a low stress environment as they get to know me. I can administer medication, take them for car rides or walks if desired. Companionship in any form is something I look forward to providing them!!

About: I stand out for my calm, reliable care and my ability to understand each pet’s personality and needs. I’m attentive to routines, clear on communication, and focused on making every animal feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work 7:30-4 Monday-Friday. I am happy to provide care during the week if the pet is used to going a full work day alone. I can provide full day care on weekends. :) I prefer to care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable. I follow their normal routine; feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions so everything stays familiar and stress free. I keep the home tidy, give plenty of attention, and make sure each pet feels safe and relaxed while their family is away.

About: I have had many animals! From reptiles, to chinchillas all the way to dogs & cats I’ve had a lot of experience with many different pets. I am a big animal person! As a first time cat mom I fully understand how important it is to have a pet sitter who helps you feel secure in leaving your fur babies with them. Not only am I a trustworthy person, I’m very attentive to detail and reliable. I’m currently unemployed, doing odd jobs like dog sitting, house cleaning, and babysitting. Therefore, I would have PLENTY of time to play with your fur babies!! We have plenty of cat toys your cats can play with, including 2 cats! Our cats are very pet friendly and love having new friends to play with. We also have dogs who are very friendly and love to run and play! I can take your pets on walks, play with them, and more!

About: Beyond being in an animal household all my life, I also have 3 years of working animal boarding experience (PetSuites if any are familiar) where my job was to feed, walk, bathe and hold playtimes with both dogs and cats! Growing up, my family’s house was the local suburban neighborhood zoo. Dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish, small mammals - you name it, I’ve taken care of it before! All of this experience includes taking care of puppies/kittens as well as elder animals, providing medication under precise circumstances and even making elaborate dog/cat meals for those lucky animals who are happy to be spoiled by their loving parents. I will ensure your animal is cared for to the absolute best of my ability and that every detail left in instructions are followed to the letter. Hopefully, your animal and I will have fun along the way! I currently work as a teacher - so my availability will be limited to between 4 PM and 10 PM on weekdays with FULL availability on the weekends. For the summer I have full availability on Tuesdays and Wednesdays with limited availability every other day of the week. Typically, I am available for services from 6-8 AM and/or 7-10 PM on those days. I find that the better I get to know an animal, the easier it is to understand what they need - beyond the specified instructions already provided, that is. If an energetic young pup seems to begging for playtime - I’m happy to stick around a bit and play some tug of war. If a dog is rubbing their head against my hands? I know it’s time for some belly rubs. Whatever an animal may need, I will do my best to make em happy.

About: Since about 12 years old my neighborhood friends would hire me to dogs sit while their family went out of town. I’ve always had a huge amount of love for animals so I never had any problem doing so. Fast forward 5 years later my parents began breeding French bulldogs. My siblings and I had a lot of responsibility on our hands are far as feeding them, bathing, keeping them groomed, making sure they’re up to date on shots and etc. I currently work from home so that’s enables me with plenty of free time to walk, play with/take to the park, and feed your lovely animals! In my home my dog is crate trained. I do have a crate for my puppy for if friends come over and are not comfortable with him I can put him away for a few hours. I prefer all animals be crate trained , but only go to the crate if they would like to do so. I do not mind dogs walking around my house. I have a puppy of my own so every morning I get up and take my puppy on a 30 minute walk as well as every evening once I get home from work. I have an animal friendly house so I usually let pups/kittys run around the house as long as they’ve been fed and taken out for a potty break.

About: I am an experienced dog walker and I have experience with all different breeds and sizes. I am a veterinarian assistant and because of that I am knowledgeable of what puppies need and how it differs from what adult dogs need. If your dogs depend on a medication I am willing to do so as well I do work full time but have off days during the week and plenty of time before and after work to make sure they are getting the care they need I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs to help keep your baby entertained. If needed I can easily crate your dog as well

About: I am … obsessed with animals. I have been taking care of pets my entire childhood and after graduating college, started raising my own! I was a nanny and dogsitter all throughout college and I have a genuine love for all animals, big and small. I am currently working a hybrid job, so my schedule is very flexible. I also live with my husband, who has been a veterinary technician since 2016. We can handle all kinds of medications, special needs, etc plus one of us is almost always home! I consider myself to be very patient and kind when dealing with others’ pets. I know how important it is to me that my fur baby is taken care of when I’m away, so I promise to treat yours just like my own. I love meeting pets of all ages and kinds, and promise to give each and every one the love they deserve!!! Between my husband and I, someone is almost always home! I wot a flexible hybrid schedule. My husband is currently in school so he’s away for a couple hours for classes a few days per week and then comes right back home. But we’re always willing and able to accommodate things outside of our schedule, just ask! If providing care in my home, I have one older dog named Teddy. We also have a dog park at my apartment complex and lots of places to walk nearby. If providing care at your home, let me know your preferences! I’m happy to walk your baby or just snuggle, whatever you want.
