About: In my younger years I was known as that house you could trust your pets with, which sadly led to less boarding and daycare services and more abandonment of pets on my doorstep. I accepted each surrender because I always figured better here with me then on the streets. After successfully adopting out all these love bugs to people I knew and trusted over the years, I've found myself in smaller quarters. I've found comfort and fulfillment in caring for outdoor cats (commonly referred to as strays) Taking in an orange Tabby to call my own in the process. I've made friends with neighbors who share the same love and passion and through these connections found community - a cat community! I currently care for three cats (siblings), house-sitting as well while their human parents are away. Each individual cat has it's different wants/needs. Through these experiences I've learned gaining trust and love is different for each individual feline. I'm looking to expand my care/services to neighboring cat families mainly because I love cats and know how important it is to have a community of cat folks in your corner when duty, vacation or emergencies call. I'm currently employed by Uber Eats so I make my own schedule. I'm open to weekend care as well. The only thing I do religiously is cultural dancing on Wednesday nights. My current clients are all indoor kitties so I am used to securing the household, feeding on a schedule throughout the day and doing enrichment with them be that play or individual love and cuddle time. I prepare meals specific to each cats needs, keep litterboxes and surrounding areas clean and keeping water stations fresh.

We usually do drop ins for our kitties but did house sit this time and it worked out amazing! Jazmine is responsible, dependable, and communicative. We get a pretty detailed recap of the day and lots of videos and pictures. Of course the kitties loved it and housesit worked a lot better for my cat that picks at his food throughout the day. We didn’t have to worry at all. Ty Jazmine you are the best!!

Joel is an excellent dog sitter! My dogs are my family and I usually worry about them when I'm away from home, but I feel totally at ease when Joel is with them. He takes consistent, thoughtful care of them, and it's clear in the pictures he takes that the dogs are having a blast.

We’ve had Trish house/pet sit for us a few times now and she is the best. We have a dog with heart disease and he needs various meds throughout the day, and Trish makes sure to he gets his doses on time. She’s also communicative and we know the dogs are in good hands when she is here for us!

Christina was great with our sweet Polly! She gave daily updates and texted pictures when asked. Polly was very well cared for and Christina left the house and her bedroom very clean before she left. She comes highly recommended. We would definitely have her back to care for Polly although I would not be surprised that she is in high demand.

We had another great pet sitting experience with Holly. She is always so thoughtful and communicative, and our fur babies (2 cats, 1 dog) just love her. What a gift it is to be able to leave our pets and not have to worry about them. Holly makes it so that we can truly enjoy our vacations and not have to worry about what’s going on at home. Thank you for another awesome stay, Holly!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Mel. She was incredibly communicative from start to finish and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. She sent frequent updates and tons of adorable pictures, which we loved and truly appreciated. She took wonderful care of our home and gave us such peace of mind during our wedding weekend, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment. It was clear our pup was in caring, capable hands the entire time. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter! Thank you, Mel!

Mary was amazing! She made us feel so comfortable leaving our dog with her (our first time leaving him with someone besides family). She sent adorable photos throughout the week. She communicated with us prior to, during and after the house sitting. I think our dog Zac wanted to go home with her! We will definitely call Mary again. So glad we found her! Kathy & Brian & Zac

We had an amazing experience with Keishla and can’t recommend her enough. She went above and beyond caring for our cat and our home, and her thoughtful updates and photos gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a happy, relaxed cat and a house in perfect shape. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and trustworthy to watch your pet, book with Keishla without hesitation. We are already planning on having her back again!

Jacob was awesome. I needed a dog sitter for two large retrievers for a short out of town trip. Jacob was available and we set up a time to meet. Jacob was prompt and very professional. I was very comfortable with having him stay at my home with the dogs. During his stay, he was very communicative and sent lots of photographs. He didn’t mind my constant checking in from afar. My neighbors gave him their nod of approval. He treated my dogs like they were his own and that was much appreciated. They were very spoiled while under Jacob’s care. I would highly recommend Jacob. You won’t be disappointed. I look forward to having him return for future dog sitting.

I've worked with several other wonderful house sitters on Rover, but Tricia is exceptional in her professionalism, experience, communication, positivity, and problem solving capabilities. My dear pitbull rescue is a shy boy and typically it takes a few days to feel safe with a new sitter. Tricia had good sense for how to earn his trust and provide care that brought out the best in him. During our work with Tricia, we received detailed updates and photos about Momo's day which was a peace of mind for us on our trip. She promptly communicated with any questions or issues that came up, but Tricia demonstrated good judgement in her decision-making process and was able to accurately support Momo and his needs. Couldn't recommend Tricia enough; she is our first choice for future house sitting and pet care in the future.

Camilla watched my dog Patsy for a couple of nights while I was away for a wedding. I felt very comfortable leaving Patsy in her care and that’s not an easy thing to do as she is an old girl and reactive while on walks towards other dogs so leaving her always makes me nervous. Right away Camilla was very friendly and warm towards Patsy and I could tell Patsy liked her right away! Camilla sent me regular updates which I appreciated and helped me be able to relax while traveling. When I got home Patsy was clearly well cared for and my house was as clean as I left it. I will definitely be using Camilla again in the future and I’d recommend her to anyone who may need pet care in the future!

I have worked with Mary several times for weekend getaways but this last stay was for almost 3 weeks while I was in Europe. She is organized, reliable, and kind. She is so wonderful with my old boy Marshall. He had a health change right before I left and he needed meds. Mary stepped in without missing a beat to give him the extra care and attention he required. She sent lots of pictures and we even scheduled a FaceTime call so he could hear my voice (and I could see him). I can’t tell you what peace of mind it gave me to know she was taking care of him. And she left my house in perfect condition, as well. I highly recommend Mary. She is a Gem!

Sofia housesat our two dogs for 16 nights. We initially met her months prior and we kept in touch monthly. A couple days prior, she came over for an hour and we went through all the instructions. While we were away, she regularly updated us and ensured we got home without delay. Sofia is very reliable, an effective communicator and provided us with invaluable peace of mind that our dogs and home was being taken care of. Thank you Sofia! We look forward to working with you again!
