“They were wonderful with our 3 cats. They sent pictures and updates frequently and kept our minds at ease! We had them pick up and drop off our cats, as well, and they were on time and took a lot of care to make sure transit was as smooth as possible.”
“I have been fortunate enough to have Julie check-in on our cats while we were on vacation several times in the past few years. Julie is absoultely the best. She is professional with great communication, trustworthy, fair, and most important good with our pets. Thank you!”
“Anna gave me constant updates and photos of my cats while I was away, and she was so helpful about returning my keys to me after I had a delayed night flight. The boys certainly appreciated her. Thanks, Anna!”
“We booked Evelyn rather last minute to check on our cat while we were out of town. She was able to stop by for a meet & greet promptly and so glad we ended up booking her. She went above and beyond checking on our fluffy friend & really felt he was in great hands. She gave him his medicine which isn’t always the easiest task & made sure food / water was full & litter box was clean. Evelyn provided us daily updates & pictures so we knew Kitty was in good hands. Our cat isn’t always easy to win over but from the pictures - look liked Evelyn got our cat to warm up. She even emptied our garbages & left us the most adorable bouquet with flowers from our garden. Will absolutely book again & highly recommend her services. Thank you Evelyn!”
“Grace is an amazing pet sitter. She has a calm, go-with-the-flow energy and was really great with my cats. I was anxious about leaving them, as this was my first trip since they both started medication. Grace provided me with a lot of reassurance and sent me pictures and updates of my cats throughout my trip. I will 100% be booking with Grace again.”
About: Ever since I was little I have had a dog. Now, I work 40 hours a week and feel I don’t have the time to properly own a dog. But I do miss pets so much. I think this would be a perfect way for me to get some exercise and make some lovely furry friends! When I did have my own dog, I took good care of her, taking her on multiple walks a day, feeding her at scheduled times, and bathing her and brushing her coat as needed. I have cat sat for multiple families, visiting their home daily or per their preference, cleaning the litter box at least once a day, feeding them regularly. I have also dog sat, ensuring their proper care and providing the stimulation they need. I love playing and snuggling with pets, or just being there if that’s what they need. I am open to questions and any special requests. Currently I am open to caring for pets in the late afternoons, evenings and weekends. I am excited to work together and care for your fur baby. I do have a large fenced in yard, no pets and no kids. Your pet can roam around freely around the home or in a kennel if that is a preference and if it’s provided. If I’m at your home, I welcome any instructions or preferences that you might have for me. When dog walking, your dog’s safety is of utmost importance for me.
“Tara was amazing! She sent really comforting messages and photos to me everyday I was on my trip. I could tell my cat got lots of pets and play time to keep her going interaction-wise through the long week I was out of town, something that was super important for her well being and Tara really did a great job on that front! I would definitely trust her with my cat’s care again in the future.”
“Bryn did a wonderful job taking care of our pets! She paid lots of attention to our elderly cat and sent plenty of pictures and thorough updates. We came back to a happy and healthy boy. Can't recommend enough!”
“Jeffery did a great job taking care of my cat. I was very pleased with his communication. I also enjoyed seeing pictures. My cat usually hides from new people, but she liked Jeffery.”
“Always a delight when Laura is available to hang out with Tucker! We appreciate that she is attentive to his needs and routine, gets him out for quick walks - even in bad weather, and stays in touch while we’re away.”
Gem Lake cat parents share their Rover experiences
Ava did a wonderful job taking care of our cats & kittens. She did more than originally asked since there were kittens born while we were away, she made sure everyone was safe and comfortable, spending more time and required during many visits. Ava was also very communicative and provided updates during and after each visit.
