Cat Sitting Idlewild

“Amy checked in on our cat Nera for meal breaks while we were on vacation and gave her lots of pets and love while we were away. We were grateful for the pictures and so glad Nera was taken care of. Highly recommend Amy!”

About: Hi! My name is Lucie and I have a huge passion for all things dog, I have been a dog groomer for a year now and have been pet sitting for at least 4. I am very used to nervous or difficult dogs. Dogs are a huge part of my life :) I work 4 days a week but my job is very flexible so I can easily leave to quickly let pups out to pee on work days! Like i mentioned I have been pet sitting for 4 years and have built a lot of trust with my clients! I do lots of text check ins with pet parents so they know they’re baby is doing good!

“We ended up having to go out of town for two weeks, and Grace was more than willing to help us out with the cats! Our cats are pretty independent, but every now and then they decide they actually like humans 😂. We really appreciated Grace stopping by to check on them and making sure they were doing okay while we were gone. We loved getting the photos and little updates from Grace, too! It gave us peace of mind knowing they were being checked on and taken care of. We’re so grateful for her help and would definitely have her watch our cats again!”

“Wonderful! She went above and beyond by stopping in on a day she wasn't scheduled to check on the cats after a storm. Appreciate you taking care of my furbabies. Definitely will use again.”

About: I have taken care of dogs for friends of the family for years. I have taken care of solo dogs, two dogs, and three dogs. I always give the dogs the attention and time they need. I always keep the owners in the loop and send updates. I am currently working full time in a remote position. My remote position involves being in an approved location with my work so I unfortunately will not be able to spend the work day with pets during the week. I am available on weekends. I will not be caring for pets in my home. I have taken care of pets in their own homes and I always follow the instructions set forth

“Absolutely fantastic experience with our pet sitter, Erika. She did an amazing job caring for my two cats, who are usually very wary of new people. By the end of her time with them, one of my cats even let her hold him which is a huge milestone and really shows how patient, calm, and gentle she was with both of them. Erika was very professional throughout, followed all instructions carefully, and always replied quickly, which really helped ease my stress while I was away. I felt completely confident knowing my two cats were in great hands. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”

“Christina was the best! she took excellent care of our kiddos and even got our most sensitive cat to eat his meals (and take his meds!) without any issue! she sent us tons of photos, was super communicative, and super flexible. 10/10 recommend her for all your pet needs!!”

About: Hello my name is Tyler. I’m 40 yrs old and I love spending time with dogs. I have been a dog owner and have trained all my own dogs. Currently I’m unemployed due to having brain surgery at the end of 24’ and then the follow up treatments taking most of 25’. So I have lotsa time, attention, and love to give your pet(s). This is actually my attempt at getting back into the working world. Can’t imagine a much better way to ease back into work than to help some people out with their pet care needs. I have a park walking distance from my house that I can take dogs to run around and use the bathroom and I live in a good area for walks. I am well versed on typical dog etiquette in public around other people and animals. I have experience with all types of dogs large and small. I’m a big guy and can handle the larger breeds pretty well usually, but also caring for the little ones as well. I always prioritize the pet(s) health and safety first, and then having some fun second :). I would love to provide a safe and relaxing spot for your pet(s). Also FYI - for boardings if pickup on the last day is after noon I will ask for a day fee of $35. I’m currently unemployed due to brain surgery I had this time last year to remove a large cancerous tumor. Luckily I recovered beautifully and quickly and am still fully functional, minus a little extra forgetfulness but nothing bad at all. So I’m available all days of the week, and have all my time, attention and love to give your pet(s). I’m very experienced with dogs of all types large, small, u name it. I’m a big guy at 6’4” and about 225 lbs so I can handle em all. I’m also rather calm and quiet which I believe helps animals feel at ease around me. I’d take care of yours as if they were my own! :) I take as much precaution as I can with all animals certainly someone else’s. The animals safety and health are my number one concern when caring for someone’s loved pet(s).

About: I have helped and cared for many different types of animals such as cats, dogs, fish, reptiles and more! I love giving animals that extra time and attention they need and have cared for many owners in the past. I have a fairly busy schedule with college and athletics but I am available throughout the day especially during the morning and evening. I am able to work with clients and provide the appropriate care needed for their pets:) Depending on the home, I am able to do whatever is needed to make my clients feel comfortable! I love keeping my own areas tidy and would love to do the same while caring for animals. Cleaning and making sure the animals things stay kept is a must for me and I appreciate being told if something specific needs done. No job is too much for me:)

“Allie was amazing with our two cats! She followed all of our instructions, left our place extra tidy, and even got our cats to cuddle with her during her check-ins! We felt confident our babies were in good hands!”

About: If your pet could choose their own sitter, I’d like to think we’d be friends. 🐾✨ Leaving your pet behind can be stressful, but my goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and cared for while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I currently share my home with three cats and an energetic Lab/Boxer puppy. I have over two years of foster experience and have cared for up to 13 cats at once, giving me hands-on experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and temperaments. I also volunteer walking shelter dogs, giving me experience with dogs of all temperaments, sizes, and backgrounds. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, patience, and love. I believe every pet deserves personalized care, and I’ll take the time to get to know their routine, quirks, and preferences. Whether your pet loves constant attention or prefers their own space, I’ll provide care that makes them feel safe and comfortable. I specialize in: ✅ Drop-in Visits: Every 30 minute visit includes a photo update, fresh water, potty break, playtime, and a full report card. Not just a quick hello! ✅ House Sitting: I provide daytime check-ins every 4–6 hours for meals, potty breaks, and playtime, plus overnight companionship so your pet never feels alone in their own home. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates throughout my stay so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and in good hands. ✅ 30 minute Dog Walks: a fun stroll around your neighborhood or nearby trail with a mid-walk photo update and enough exercise and mental stimulation to keep your pup happy all day. ✅ Medication administration ✅ Feeding routines ✅ Litter box care ✅ Senior pets ✅ Shy or anxious pets ✅ Puppies & high-energy dogs New to Rover, not new to pets —building my reviews one happy pup & cat at a time. 🐾 Pet care isn’t something I fit around my day , it is my day. As a stay at home sitter with a fully flexible schedule, I’m available seven days a week, mornings through evenings, with no rushing off to a separate job in between. This means your pet isn’t waiting hours for their next check-in or walk. I can accommodate early morning drop-ins, midday visits, evening walks, and last minute requests without it being a disruption to my routine. For house sitting, being home-based means your pet gets consistent, attentive company throughout the entire stay not just the hours before and after a 9 to 5. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. Since I offer in-home visits, walks, and overnight stays in your home, your pet remains in their familiar environment, which helps reduce stress and keeps their daily routine consistent. I take time to understand each pet’s specific needs, including feeding schedules, medication instructions, behavior preferences, and any household rules. I also make sure doors, gates, and entry points are handled carefully and responsibly at all times. During every visit or overnight stay, I maintain a calm and attentive presence so your pet feels secure and cared for. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos so you always know how things are going while you’re away. My goal is to provide dependable care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind.

“Tereasa is great with our dogs! She is reliable and a great communicator. She lets you know how the drop in visit went and provides plenty of pictures of her visit. Highly recommended!!”

About: I have had pets for my whole life. Most of my friends called my house a "zoo" growing up because of the wide range of animals we had around the house, from puppies to snakes to pigs- we had it all. When caring for another animal, I treat it like it were my own. I always saw my pets as an extension of my own family and want to treat all animals the same way. I am currently home from college right now, so I am flexible. I have 3 pets of my own who I take care of, other than that I am free. It depends on the pet and their individual needs. I have a dog, but he is extremely active and loves being outdoors, so letting him out every hour or couple minutes is important for him. Whereas, another dog may not enjoy. being outside as much or have certain medical needs that prevents them from running. I love cuddling up on the couch with my pets (dog and two cats), and giving them affection. I also enjoy spending time with them by getting them active and playing their favorite games/ toys.

About: I am a huge animal lover! I have 10+ years of paid experience pet-sitting, house-sitting, and babysitting! I have been a regular sitter for all types of breeds, ages, and behaviors. I have regular experience with pit bulls, chihuahuas, Great Pyrenees, Great Danes, puppies & seniors! I have recently moved to Cincinnati and looking to build a new client base! I love walks, play time, & cuddles! I have experience in light training, medication, and socialization skills. During drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays, I will gladly help with any additional training needed. I always provide updates and photos, and can ensure you will receive prompt and detailed responses. I am currently working part-time, and my schedule is very open and flexible. With being new to Cincinnati, my goal is to find regular clients in need of a dog-sitter & walker, as well as helping out those who are needing a one-time or occasional helper. I have lots of reliable & trusted references that show my level of honesty, respect of privacy, and cleanliness for client home sitting. I am punctual, detail-oriented, and ready to work with the routine you and your pet have.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 8. I have taken care of my own dogs, family members, and close friends' dogs as well. I also have a background with working with pets in a clinical setting while assisting a veterinarian. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m available during evenings on weekdays and 24/7 from Friday through Sunday, allowing me to provide consistent, attentive care. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine, personality, and medical needs. In a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal schedule—feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and litter box or yard care—to reduce stress and keep them comfortable in a familiar environment. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, clean, and safe space with close supervision, regular exercise, enrichment, and plenty of attention. With 8 years in the veterinary field and 5 years as a veterinary assistant, I’m attentive to behavior changes, comfortable administering medications, and proactive about safety. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize consistency, cleanliness, and treating every pet like family.
