Cat Sitting Hogestown

“Honestly Kari is the best. She’s watched our diabetic cat for several trips now, as well as stayed in our home for 8 nights to watch our dogs and cat. I’m so thankful we found her! The house is always tidy, the animals love her, and her communication is great!”

“Becky was absolutely fantastic with my cat, Captain. She took excellent care of him while I was away and gave me many photos while I missed him. Could not speak higher of her”

Dakota T.

“My sweet Odie loved Brittany. She was on time and spent quality time with him while I was at work all day. Very appreciative of her time with him!”

Veronica M.

“Kasandra was great! She checked on our cat while we were out of town and it made leaving him so much easier knowing he was in good hands. We will be booking with her again!”

Elizabeth G.

“Margaret was so kind and caring with our kitty Bug! She sent daily updates and pictures so we knew how he was doing with each visit, giving details on his feedings, litter cleaning and playtime. I could relax and enjoy my time away at the beach even more knowing Bug was in great hands! 🐞💗”

About: There has always been a pet in the home since childhood, I’ve watched and taken care of 5 personally owned dogs from puppyhood to adulthood! I have babysat my aunts cat Tammy for a few months now, and I have taken care of my own dog Maestro when my parents are on vacation, or need an extra pick-me-up. I also have been volunteering at Humane Society of Harrisburg for about a few months now! I have always had a huge heart towards animals of all personalities and sizes. I’ve worked with nervous big dogs, to crazy little puppies! I would be more than willing to meet your amazing animal someday! 😊💕 I have access to a car, so I am easily able to provide as much time and energy as your animal needs. I also do not have a typical job, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I will be super respectful of your space and keep notes about certain things your animal needs, and provide spectacular feedback on how your animal is feeling, how the day went, overall what happened during my service! I am a wonderful listener and I learn extremely quickly.

“Taylor is very responsive and communicative. I feel very comfortable knowing she is available to check in my dogs when I am working at the office”

Alison H.

“Communicative & my puppy loved him!”

“Sara was great. Her communication was excellent and the pictures were nice to get. It’s always nice to have someone reliable to take care of your animals! Definitely recommend and will be reaching out again!”

Pamela & Daniel K.

“Marlaina was great!! She came to administer SubQ fluids to Sebastian and did an awesome job! Sebastian liked her too! Thank you so much Marlaina!!”

“Rachel was great with our two cats. We loved getting the daily updates (with photos!) while we were out of town. Will definitely book again!”

“Reactive dog owners rejoice! Nina was so amazing and patient with our reactive boy, Murph. He takes a little bit to warm up to people and is dog/stranger reactive, so I needed someone who has experience with that. She is very patient and respectful of Murph’s boundaries. She’s really good at reading dog behavior and has training experience too! I am so thankful for Nina and look forward to booking her again!”

About: I really like to meet animals where they are. If they are high energy and love to play then that is what we will be doing. If they are a lounge on the couch kind of dog then I will lay with them. I currently have one dog and I have been able to teach him many tricks like roll and high five! I also have 3 cats who keep me busy but in a good way! I have dog sat before many times but I am excited to meet new animals on Rover. I work full time on the weekdays from 7:45-4. I would also be able to be at your home for a few minutes during my lunch break depending on the location. I have full availability Friday night - Sunday night I always make sure that I am following their routine and doing things the way that you would do them! I will ask any questions if I have them to make sure I am doing everything right. The animals would never be able to escape as I am very careful with doors and I always wrap leashed around my wrist for a second layer of protection

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, specifically German Shepherds, so I’m very comfortable with large breeds and strong personalities. I’ve been around all kinds of dogs, from highly protective working dogs to total goofballs, and I know every dog has their own personality and needs. I also have experience caring for multiple dogs at once, so I’m used to handling different routines, energy levels, and temperaments. I currently work part-time and am a student, so my schedule is pretty flexible. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I’m able to accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening visits depending on your pet’s needs. I’m also happy to work with specific routines since I know consistency is important for pets. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I take that seriously. I always try to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and reduce stress. I pay close attention to behavior, energy, and any changes that seem off, and I’ll keep you updated so you feel informed while you’re away.

“We booked Abby last minute to check on our two dogs and she was absolutely wonderful! She was quick to respond, very professional, and made us feel completely at ease. We really appreciated her reliability and the updates she provided. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, highly recommend and will definitely be booking her again!”

Patricia C.

“Elena was fantastic with our kitties. She did all that was asked of her and when we returned home after a week away, our cats were very indifferent to our arrival home which shows us they were well taken care of and given lots of love in our absence. We will definitely be using Elena again to watch our fur babies when needed!”

Since I am not working elsewhere at the moment, I have plenty of availability to provide attentive care, maintain consistent routines, and accommodate pets with specific schedules or special needs. I provide a safe, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment in both my home and my clients' homes. In my home, pets are welcomed as part of the family. My dog is free to roam, relax, and lounge on the couch, and I have created dedicated spaces where pets can feel comfortable and secure.

I follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, playtime, and special requirements, while providing attentive supervision, companionship, and lots of love.

“Sydney did awesome with my kit-kat! My cat is normally pretty shy but she warmed up to Sydney really quickly. Great updates each day and lots of cute photos! I’ll definitely reach out to Sydney again next time I need a sitter 😊”
