“Another great visit with Elizabeth for our 2 cats! We are moving out of the area and are devastated we will no longer have her after 5+ years caring for the kitties 😿😿❤️”
“Kloe was extremely caring for our three cats. They trusted her right away. She fed, cleaned and played with them while we were away. Sent so many cute pictures and videos. Definitely recommend!”
“This was the first time that Michelle dropped in on Cuddles. She gave her food, water and a clean litter box. Cuddles is not a friendly cat and seems very happy that Michelle was there to provide for her. I would definitely ask Michelle to care for Cuddles again.”
About: We have a zoo of our own: 2 golden retrievers and 3 cats. We'd love to help care for your baby while you are away! I have raised dogs all my life, and have work experience in a dog grooming facility. I can administer medication, cater to special diets, and any special requirements that your furry family member may need. Sammi is full time tattoo artist with a flexible schedule and Jerry is a UX designer who works remotely. We are an animal-loving couple who can take on pet sitting requests depending on who is free. We will be predominantly offering drop-in service at our clients' homes and providing dog-walking services. Since we have dogs and cats at our own home, we will not be able to provide boarding service at our home.
“This is the first time we've used Rover and previously always had the benefit of a family member to watch Cinni when away. With only a couple of weeks, we suddenly needed to find an alternative. After scouring reviews on Rover we contacted Lisa M, who very fortunately for us was available. Lisa M arrived promptly at the schedule time each day to care for Cinni and provided thorough updates that quickly set our minds at ease and provided us with some great photos of our kitty. Furthermore, Lisa M was able to successfully medicate Cinni each visit, and those cat owners whose pets require medication know how challenging this can be. Based on our experience enthusiastically recommend Lisa M for anyone else who needs a cat sitter and will be contacting her as soon as I schedule our next trip to ensure she is available to care for Cinni.”
“Amazing guy. My dog was well taken care of and I was informed of all visits with pictures. Will be using Ryan again for all my pet sitting needs”

Megan M.
“I’ve trusted Megan McCaffrey to care for my two dogs—a lively white shepherd and a sensitive, selective pitbull mix—and she’s been nothing short of amazing. Both girls have very different needs, and Megan handles them with grace, patience, and genuine affection. She keeps my shepherd active and engaged while offering calm, reassuring care to my pit mix, who’s often anxious around new people and just in general. Megan’s ability to read their moods and respond with the right energy is something I deeply value. My dogs adore her, and I always feel at ease knowing they’re in her care. She is also fantastic with her own two high maintenance cats! Megan is reliable, communicative, and incredibly thoughtful. She treats my pets like family and brings a sense of calm and joy to every visit. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and capable pet sitter”
