“Kati did a great job taking care of our cat. She arrived as scheduled. Spent lots of time with him and made sure the house was locked up and the alarm was set. Katie also sent lots of feedback and pictures😊”
“This was our fifth time booking with Amanda and we will always book her again! She takes such good care of our babies and always has the best notes and pictures. Definitely recommend her to watch your furry children. She is super trustworthy and thorough.”
“Kayla did a great job with drop in visits - she was an excellent communicator and always kept me updated on Mushroom! Additionally, she was very patient and understand when faced with issues getting into my apartment unit. I’d trust Kayla to take care of Mushroom anytime!”
“Shawna was excellent with checking in on our two cats! She is very communicative and followed our notes perfectly. It was comforting to know our cats were checked in on and cared for while we were away.”
“Becca did a great job watching my cat—super responsive and easy to work with. Everything went smoothly, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again if I need a sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Katerina did a wonderful job with our cat. She showed up when expected, managed his medications, food water and litter pan. She also kept in touch and posted pics/videos. The house was locked up and the alarm was set when she left. I will be scheduling her again.”
“Mallory did a great job taking care of our kitties and turtle. They sent pictures and updates each day. The boxes and areas around them were clean when we returned. They also watered our many plants and brought in mail. Thank you!”
“Darien did a wonderful job looking after our senior cat! She took great care of him and also looked after our house to make sure there were no messes - she even took our garbage out and brought packages in! She went above and beyond and we would highly recommend her! Thank you, Darien!”
“Jennifer was amazing! She was very professional and maintained excellent communication throughout the entire time (about 2 weeks). We had a walkthrough about 3 months before our trip and she reached out to do a refresher run through shortly before we left to make sure she didn't miss anything, which was greatly appreciated. She left thorough notes after each visit. My kitties are generally pretty shy when it comes to new people but they warmed up to her very quickly! Would definitely have Jennifer care for my babies again!”
“We’ve been using Doug as a pet sitter for a while now, and we highly recommend him. Doug is not only reliable but also genuinely enthusiastic about caring for our cats. We never have to worry about anything when they’re in his care. He ensures they get plenty of attention, including playtime and cuddles, which helps keep them happy while we’re away. Our cats require daily medication, and Doug handles this with ease, showing he’s comfortable with more complex care needs. I highly recommend his services to anyone—your pets will be in excellent hands, and you’ll have peace of mind knowing they’re well cared for.”
About: I’ve cared for animals since I was a child. Growing up we had dogs and, cats!. Animals hold a very special place in my heart and believe they all deserve to be treated with the best care! I’ve cared for new born cats and dogs all the way up to senior animal care. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine because I already care for my own cat every day and I work from a flexible schedule. I make time for feeding, play, litter cleaning, and check-ins, so fitting in visits or stays with other pets comes naturally. I enjoy dedicating part of my week to making sure animals feel safe, loved, and cared for. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with patience, gentleness, and consistency. Since I have a cat myself, I’m familiar with keeping a calm and safe environment where pets can feel comfortable. I follow owners’ instructions carefully, keep routines consistent, and always make sure pets have clean spaces, fresh food, water, and plenty of attention. Your pet’s safety and happiness will always be my priority.
“Ally is exactly what I hoped for in a Rover. After a not-so-great experience with another Rover, I really wanted to find someone who was considerate and responsible. Thankfully, Ally turned out to be the perfect person. Not only was she communicative and actually spent quality time with my cat, she even was kind enough to clean up water spills after my cat knocked down his water bowl twice, which I really appreciated. I would absolutely recommend Ally to any pet owner, and I hope to book her again!”
“Haven is amazing! She is very conscientious, always on time, very communicative and most importantly, she cares very much about the happiness and well being of your pet. She’s the best pet sitter we’ve ever used!”
“Jessica was amazing! We were so stressed out to leave our cats while we went on a 10 day vacation, but she was able to put our minds at ease our whole trip! She took pictures every visit and sent us updates throughout the week. We could tell the cats really enjoyed her visits :) We would highly recommend her ! And we definitely plan to use her again in the future! Thank you Jessica!”
“Christina is a fabulous pet sitter! She is trustworthy, reliable, professional, and loving. She sends great photos and leaves comprehensive notes. Look no further!”
Hawthorn Woods cat parents share their Rover experiences
Kayla was great! We left our cats, Pumpkin and Shadow, in her care for four days while we were on vacation. Kalya's thorough updates during our trip convinced us that she took great care of the cats. Her photos were complete and fun to watch, and her descriptions of her visits suggested that the cats were nurtured and entertained while she visited. I would hire her again!
Darien did a wonderful job looking after our senior cat! She took great care of him and also looked after our house to make sure there were no messes - she even took our garbage out and brought packages in! She went above and beyond and we would highly recommend her! Thank you, Darien!
