Cat Sitting Itasca

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Cat Sitter – Punctual, Responsible, and Caring I cannot recommend Mariela enough! She is incredibly punctual, responsible, and attentive to my cat, Simba. From the moment I hired her, she was highly responsive and kept me updated, which made my vacation completely stress-free. Not only did she take excellent care of Simba—who absolutely adores her and thrives under her care—but she also went above and beyond by taking out trash. Her thoughtfulness and attention to detail truly set her apart. Thanks to her, I could enjoy my trip knowing Simba was in the best hands. In fact, I’m already looking forward to my next vacation because I know she’ll take care of everything perfectly! If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy cat sitter, look no further. Simba and I are so grateful for her outstanding service, and we’ll definitely be booking her again!”

About: I have up to a eight years of experience taking care of animals. The most known being cats, dogs, birds, and some farmlife. I also have experience in grooming regarding bathing dogs and cats. This is something I am currently working toward furthering my career in. I am currently unemployed, although I am working on getting a job. I care for two cats at home full time as well as the occasional care of my roommate's pet skink. I have a 7 year old and an 8 month old who is sometimes a full-time job himself. I currently live in an apartment so I do not offer care at my home due to my lease not allowing it. However, within the home of my client I try to keep a common eye on the animals, making sure they are fed, have water, and if required the litterbox/bathroom is done whenever they need it.

About: I may be newer to professional pet sitting, but I am very responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy caring for animals. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and positive environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I take time to follow instructions closely, respect routines, and give each pet the attention they need. My goal is always to provide reliable, loving care that builds trust with both pets and their owners. I work almost full-time on weekdays, but I make time in the mornings, evenings, and weekends to ensure pets get reliable, consistent, and loving care. I care for pets in their own home by following routines closely and making safety my top priority. I ensure dogs are fed, walked, and given attention according to instructions, while keeping them calm, comfortable, and secure. I always respect the client’s home and aim to build trust through reliable, attentive care.

“I returned from my trip to find a happy and healthy Teddy! Natalie took such good care of him and she just knew what to do with my anxious 8 year old puppy! Natalie went above and beyond and knew when he needed more attention and gave it to him. She kept me informed and eased my mind about leaving him. I will never kennel him again! I have already booked Natalie for my next trip. If I could give her 10 stars I would!”

“From the moment I met Kelly, I sensed her genuine love for animals. Her welcoming environment assures not just my cat, but any pet, would feel right at home. Kelly’s passion for pet care is evident in her actions and the happiness of those she looks after. I’d recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone seeking top-notch care for their pets!”

About: Have had a dog all my life and was lucky enough that all our family dogs slept with me and now, of course, my two little ones and all the ones I host that like to sleep in bed too. It’s like one big slumber party, for the dogs, and well honestly, myself as well and during the winter a little extra heat. For the past 27 years I have had 4 dogs (2 of which I currently am the mother). Have personally trained them to be sociable, sweet, potty trained, and off leash doggies. Typically we go on walks throughout the day for any duration, I just read and follow what they want to do, if my older one wants to go in early I bring him in and continue with the other one. Even when I walk your dogs, I watch them to see if they need to get out more energy or still go potty and try to do my best to make sure they do before I bring them back home (sometimes my schedule or the weather does not allow the extra time, but if it does and they need it, no worries, it’s on me). In the process of an official dog training course so that I have the credentials to do train puppies and dogs on Rover soon. My passion has always been to help people and found out while doing Rover, love to help puppies and their owners too, to get the best dog for you. With consistency, patience, positive reinforcement, lots of love, talking, and more of my secret techniques we normally end up with well behaved, sociable, in the end well trained puppies and dogs. Just depends on how much time you have and what you ideally want your puppy or dog to learn and know. I have cared for puppies and my senior dogs and all the time in between. Have a very flexible schedule and would love to meet, walk, host your dog for doggy day care or to board and care for your four legged friends as if they were my own. Shhhh the dogs I host get even better service than my own dogs and my own dogs are spoiled, really spoiled. Last minute clients are encouraged and more than welcome. As it gives me a reason to keep the condo clean, daily. Love teaching puppies the way of the world. The more dogs the merrier, but if over 4 total, I enlist a friend for assistance. Every dog has unique qualities that will make things easier if I am aware in advance. Safety amd security are main considerations during my time with your dog or cat. Otherwise, if you don’t know yet, I will inform you in my rover card. We learn as we go.

“Hannah was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of our 2 cats Meko & Misty. We looked forward to all her reports. She sent us several pictures of her playing and petting both cats. So I know they had a great time. We hadn't asked but she went ahead and put our garbage cans out for us. We were on a family vacation and I recommended her to my son & daughter-in-law as they were not happy with their cat sitter. We're planning a short trip next month and will definitely book her again.”

“Ashlee was great with my cat! She communicated very well and sent lots of photos. My cat was in good hands with her and was very well taken care of. Highly recommend Ashlee!”

Naila H.

“Renee was great! Loved that she took the time beforehand to do a meet n greet. She even did an extra meet n greet because we booked so far in advance and it had been awhile. Attentive, kind, and her passion for animals is clear! Thank you 😊”

Kelsey M.

“Our two cats were very well taken care of. We especially loved the photos of them playing. Margaret is a wonderful cat sitter!”

“Susan was our first ever Rover sitter, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience! Our Ted cat was recently diagnosed with diabetes, so it's comforting to know he's in good hands when we are gone.”

“To put it simply Warda is amazing! She comes prepared when you do a meet and greet with her, prior to an official booking. She has a checklist of questions and gives you knowledge, since she is a cat mom herself. When she is taking care of your fur baby, she updates you with every visit and sends pictures, videos, and a very thorough summary of what happened during her visit. She offers to tidy up the house before you come back from your break as well. She is very observant (for example she got my cat Milo a water dispenser since she noticed I didn’t have one). Overall she is a very thoughtful, welcoming, and knowledgeable person and I know that Milo enjoyed having her around. Don’t hesitate booking with Warda, you won’t regret it!”

Sue T.

“Beatriz was open to adding in a last minute drop in for us, showed up early and treated our home and dogs with love and respect. The pups love her!”

Christy B.

“Alexis did a wonderful job with drop-in visits for our two cats. One of our cats requires medication, and he is spicy and temperamental, but she was able to successfully pill him. She also gave detailed updates and pictures for both cats. Highly recommended, would definitely rebook!”
