Salina exceeded our expectations communicated well and went above and beyond to ensure that we felt comfortable. She knows how to use the litter robot and made sure they had fresh water and the food dispenser was always working. My little girl cat is very timid but I was so so happy she was out and about during their visits which tells me that Salina is a cat whisperer!! Definitely will be requesting her services again the next time we go away. Thank you!!

About: I am a teacher and someone who truly loves animals. Caring for pets brings me a lot of joy, and I always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they are with me. Because of my work schedule, my availability is mainly on weekends. On weekdays, I can receive and drop off pets after 5 pm. During the day (8:30 am to 4:30 pm), I am at work, so pets would have a calm, quiet space at home during those hours. I always aim to create a warm, responsible, and caring environment where every dog feels at ease and well taken care of. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a teacher, I have a structured schedule during the weekdays, which allows me to plan ahead and provide consistent care. In the mornings, I can take dogs out for a walk, feeding, and some playtime before starting my day. After work, I dedicate time in the afternoon and evening for walks, attention, and making sure pets feel comfortable and loved. I’m also available on weekends, where I have more flexibility to spend extra time with pets, including longer walks, playtime, and companionship. During the summer, I have significantly more availability, which makes it a perfect time for vacation bookings. You can plan your trips in advance knowing your pet will receive dedicated care and attention. I am very responsible with routines, so I always follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, and any specific instructions from the owner to make sure their pet feels safe and at home. When caring for pets, my priority is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved, whether they are in my home or in their own environment. In my home, I create a calm and clean space where pets can relax and feel at ease. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest. I give them plenty of attention, affection, and supervision to make sure they feel like part of the family. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I am very respectful of their space and make sure to maintain the pet’s normal routine. I understand that staying in their own home can help pets feel more secure, so I focus on keeping their environment consistent while giving them companionship, care, and attention. I always pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, and I adjust my care to match their personality whether they are energetic and playful or calm and shy. I am also happy to send regular updates and pictures, so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands 💛

Michaela is one of the best Rover’s I have ever had. She is so genuine, responsive, attentive, understanding, etc!!!! I have unfortunately had to cancel last minute and she never seems upset or bothered by the circumstances. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you Michaela for being so sweet to our fur babies!!!

I cannot recommend Kimberly enough! She does weekly visits with my pup and has also watched him for both short and long stays, and I always know he’s in the best hands. She truly cares for him like he’s her own, and it shows in the love and attention she gives him. Her pup is also an amazing playmate, so I know my dog is not only safe and cared for, but genuinely happy while I’m away. She’s reliable, thoughtful, and treats every dog as she would her own!

I can’t stress how thankful I am to have a thoughtful and reliable cat sitter! My cats are a bit high maintenance (requiring medication and sometimes messy), but Hannah handles it with ease every time. I appreciate the detailed updates, love she gives my cats, and sweet photos she leaves behind. Thanks girl!! 🫶🏽

My pets love Chelsea! And so do I! My dog was hesitant at first but Chelsea was patient and let Marley warm up to her at his pace. Now he gets the zoomies when he sees her! I love the daily updates. She writes about her visits and takes pictures and it’s so comforting while I'm away to see and hear how well the pets are doing. I would definitely recommend Chelsea. She’s kind, professional, knowledgable and does all the things with my pets that they love to do!
