About: I’ve had both dogs and cats throughout my life and have always taken pride in giving them the best care possible. Over the years, my love for animals has only grown—especially for cats. As I got older, that bond became even stronger, which eventually led me to having four cats of my own, all of whom I love deeply and care for like family. What sets me apart is my genuine connection with animals and my understanding of their unique personalities and needs. Whether it's keeping a shy cat comfortable, giving a senior pet extra patience, or just making sure every little detail is handled with care, I treat every pet as if they were my own. As someone who works from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of free time throughout the day and week to focus on pet care. My remote work is structured in a way that gives me the freedom to plan around pet visits and provide consistent, attentive care. Whether it’s morning check-ins, midday playtime, or evening visits, I’m able to accommodate a variety of needs and make sure your pet gets the time, love, and attention they deserve! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and personality so I can create a calm, secure environment that feels familiar and stress-free. In your home, I respect your space and follow all instructions closely—whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, playtime, or keeping the litter box clean and tidy. I make sure pets feel safe and cared for, and I always keep you updated with regular check-ins and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. At my home, pets have a quiet, cat-friendly space where they can relax without stress or overcrowding. I’m mindful of keeping things clean, secure, and peaceful—especially for more sensitive or shy cats. My goal is always to treat your pet (and your home) with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.

About: I have spent my entire life around animals. My home has been shared with cats, dogs, snakes, birds, a rabbit, an iguana. I was also a veterinarian assistant for over a year. I took care of any and every animal that walked through our doors; cats, dogs, ferrets, birds, rabbits. Animals of all sizes. I walked, fed, bathed and cleaned up after them. I cared for them as if they were my own and will continue to do so with every animal entrusted to my care! I am currently working from home but my schedule can be flexible. I daily job and walk times work around each other so please notify me at least 2 days in advance of your booking date and I will try my best to make it work for you! As stated on my profile, I have a strict 7 day cancellation policy applied and it is automatically enforced by the Rover app. This is due to the nature of my day job as I may need to adjust those hours when scheduling a booking of any kind. Please be mindful of this, thank you. I always make sure their sleeping area is clean and tidy and I always make sure there is available fresh water. Food is given at a schedule dependent on the individuals needs. I give plenty of time for play/attention to ensure that they always feel loved and never lonely. Sometimes they want to be left alone and I respect that as well.

“I can’t recommend Jeanne enough! She did an absolutely amazing job taking care of my cat while I was away. Not only was Minino well-fed and happy, but I could tell he received a lot of attention and love. I got regular updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease. It’s such a relief to have someone trustworthy and caring looking after your pet. I’ll definitely be booking with Jeanne again in the future!”


“I trust her wholehearly with my senior dog who has specific needs. I'm so beyond happy to have found Heather. Right off the bat she gives off this vibe that she's truly going to take care of your fur baby really well. And I really appreciate how I always get pictures and updates about my little one:)”


“Kaitlin was flexible and able to work with me on preferred dates/times I needed for Aria and was also super communicative and made me feel at ease while on vacation. Aria is not the friendliest cat so it always gives me a peace of mind when she’s comfortable in the presence of new people and I definitely felt that way with Kaitlin! I’m extremely satisfied with her service, level of care, and attention to detail. I will definitely book again ☺️☺️”


“Alexandra was just wonderful. She understood my cats and gave the best of care. She sent me pictures daily accompanied by funny tidbits about them. She stayed in my home for two weeks and when she left it looked exactly as it was when she arrived. I was so grateful for her superb care and kindness. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.”


“Sherrie was amazing! She took such great care of our pup during the drop in visit, lots of love, and attention to details. It’s clear she truly cares. Can’t wait to book her again! 🐾”



“Diana is INCREDIBLE. She is consistent and communicated so well. My cat was so content and not stressed. My apartment is perfect and she raced over to drop the keys back off when I got home. I would absolutely hire her again. 10/10!”


“David was a perfect sitter for my cats! He’s responsive, friendly, professional, and timely. I received updates and pictures like clockwork, and my kitties love him now! Next time I need to leave town, you can bet David will be my first call.”

Sara S.
“Sara has been the responsible owner of four very sweet cats for the past several years. She’s made sure to prioritize their health by taking precautions with what they’re exposed to, taking them to the vet, and safety proofing her home. She spends a good portion of her day playing, caring, and stimulating the cats to maintain their overall well being. Sara is really just an empath in every way and she especially shows that level of kindness to cats. I trust her more than anyone to watch after my pets.”
