Cat Sitting in Gentian

“Janelle was an amazing sitter for my kitties! She was extremely communicative and wanted to make sure she was doing everything as best as she could. She gave my babies love and always made sure their space was clean! I will definitely be using her services in the future!!!”

About: I worked at an animal shelter where I helped care for dogs, cats, and small animals. I gained experience with lots of different categories like feeding, cleaning, playtime, and making sure animals felt comfortable and cared for. I also have experience with reactive dogs/cats and making sure to create an environment where they thrive and do not feel the need to be reactive. I also worked with many different types of cats, especially the shy ones who just needed more support. I have also given vaccines and medicine to animals, as well as taken a senior diabetic cats blood sugar. I understand every pet is different, and I’m happy to follow any routines and give them all the patience and attention they need and deserve! I also have experience with family animals! Growing up, we had all sizes of dogs, from a German Shepherd to an Italian Greyhound! So I have experience with all different animal personalities like door dashers, small velcro pups, and the older ones too:) I currently have a small dog, a bearded dragon, and a hamster! I truly love animals and want pet parents to feel comfortable knowing their pets are safe, happy, and getting lots and lots of love while they’re away! I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week, including weekdays and weekends. I’m able to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening pet care as needed! I live in a rented apartment, so sadly I’m not able to board pets in my home. I do offer care in clients’ homes, which I believe is often best for pets since they can stay in their own familiar space:) I always make sure to follow instructions closely, keep the environment clean, and prioritize each pet’s safety and comfort.

“We have used Rover before, but no one has ever come close to the service she provided. She went above and beyond, traveling more than 45 minutes to accommodate our needs. She arrived early and stayed late with our bulldog, giving us complete peace of mind. Her communication was excellent, and we could tell she genuinely cared. Highly recommend!!”

“She did a really good job of taking care of my cat and communicating with us while we were away. She went above and beyond, a really good pet sitter.”

“Jessica took great care of my sweet, sometimes shy, older kitty. She replied quickly to messages and sent photos of my cat while we were away. Everything was just fine and my kitty was calm and happy when we returned home. Thanks so much! ☺️”

Mindy K.

“Emily was great! Everything worked out perfectly!”

Abigail R.

“Ella accommodated my request with short notice after an unexpected trip. She took very good care of my dog and I would happily rebook her again!”

“Alexa is wonderful! Honestly, she's one of the best pet sitter we've ever had. She came to our house to watch our 2 cats/ dear kitty friends, and she truly seemed to understand their needs and ours! She always did MORE than required, including regular communication, photos, and details that she'd only know if she was really spending time with them. We came home to a tidy house and 2 happy, well-fed cats. And when we got home from a long, stressful drive, we found the sweetest note about our kitties and a gift of homemade pumpkin bread! And, Alexa is smart, personable and energetic. We left feeling good about the woman we were entrusting with these small animals who trust us. I never worried about a thing, which for me, is an amazing gift. I missed our cats, but I never worried about them. For me, THAT is the very best recommendation I can give a caregiver. We will certainly hope she is available for every future trip we make.”

About: I’ve had pets and taken care of animals my entire life. I’ve always had cats- my first cat I got when I was three, and I’ve been the primary caretaker for them since. I’ve also had bunnies, dogs, hamsters, and fish! In my hometown (Madison, WI) I was always the go-to pet caretaker. I’ve walked and house sat all kinds of dogs, cats, and other furry friends. Being around animals is something I value a lot! I work part time at Ore Dock Brewery in the summer, and am a nursing student at NMU during the school year! I have lots of free time and am super flexible. I am caring, fun, and perceptive to what your animal needs. I am willing to go on long walks, play catch, cuddle, work on training, groom, or anything else you or your animals wants! I am confident in my ability to keep your pet safe and happy.

About: My pets are my family. I currently own two horses three dogs and board a horse that gets treated like my own. I’ve had dogs, my whole life and horses since I was 12. I live on 40 acres a feel my pets are living their best life. They are treated like family and always make my days better. If you were to trust me with your pets, they would be treated like family as well. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend. Happy Tails. I am currently working 4 days a week but want to retire from dental hygiene. I looking to see what kind of interest there is for this service in my area. I have a fenced in area connected to a heated garage if I were watch your pet at my home. How they re-acted to my dogs would determine if they stayed in my home.

“Kendra is a wonderful petsitter. She was quick to initially respond to my request and she scheduled a meet and greet quickly to see if our job was a good fit. First impressions was that Kendra was kind and professional. She was reported her daily check-in and was patient with my kitty who was timid and hid from her until the last day. I'm thrilled to have found Kendra and will be reaching out for future trips.”

“Angus wanted to play with Jeff immediately upon meeting him! Angus is so happy in all of the updates Jeff sends me. Jeff took the time to make sure Angus got enough play time before going back to bed. Jeff was very flexible with his availability. 10/10 recommend.”

“Our cats loved her! She treated our pets like her own.”

Abigail A.

“Olivia was fantastic. She definitely deserves a five star review. She showed up when she was supposed to and stayed for the agreed amount of time. She took wonderful pictures of Otis. She used features that I didn’t know existed with Rover. She’s is on top of her game and I would definitely use her again.”

Daniel F.

“This was my first time using Rover and having my cat stay at home rather than a kennel. Crouton was happy when I returned, fed, watered and his litter had been maintained! Everything that I needed!”

Ania

“Abby always does such a great job. Our dogs just adore her and she's very communicative! I always know when she's here and she gives great updates along with pictures! I highly recommend Abby, she's really great.”

About: I have grown up with no less than 5 dogs all my life, I also have just under 2 years of house / pet sitting experience! I am currently working part time, but am available Monday-Fridays and have weekend nights availability if needed! I can also arrange weekends morning availability . I respect both the owners and pets boundaries in their home, I do not offer boarding services. I also give constant updates via text messages to keep you updated on your pups day to day!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 11. I’ve been trusted with walking, feeding, bathing, as well as medication administration by family and friends. I work as a night shift nurse so my schedule can be a bit different, hectic, and sparse at times, but I’m still able and very much willing to give your dog the care, love, and attention they need and deserve! I can easily crate your dog if needed. I always check fences or fence gates before letting a dog outside. If dropping in for a house visit, I like to make sure the area is safe and secure - making sure your pup doesn’t get into anything they shouldn’t, such as trash bins, food on the counter, etc.
