Cat Sitting in Ivanhoe

“Shawna was excellent with checking in on our two cats! She is very communicative and followed our notes perfectly. It was comforting to know our cats were checked in on and cared for while we were away.”

Beatrice H.

“Mallory takes great care of Sasha and Sasha lives her walks and play with Mallory. We try to use her every time we aren’t able to take care of Sasha ourselves. She is great.”

“Teena did a great job taking care of my cats! They seemed very comfortable with her. Teena sent me a note with pictures of every visit, including any behaviors that were fun or needed a question answered. It’s good to know I can rely on her for future care!”

“Kati has been really awesome with our puppy and two cats and so accommodating with our busy schedules. With clear and open communication she gives us significant peace of mind that our animals are well cared for. Thanks for all your help Kati!”

“Barb is one of the sweetest people that I have met on Rover. She goes an extra mile to take care of your babies. My cat Shiva, who is very shy, easily warmed up to her because of her affectionate nature. I would strongly recommend her to anyone needing Rover services.”

“Hannah did great with our 2 cats. She was able to administer SubQ fluids to our cat with Kidney disease. They were well fed and in good hands.”

“CHRIS did a great job even when one of the dogs decided that he wanted to run the house and not go on walks. Quickly, switch gears and made sure that all the animals were safe and still tried to make friends with Luke. And in the end, CHRIS did make friends with him so I believe we’ve got the start of a beautiful relationship. Thanks Chris and happy new year”

“Alex was great with Hobbes. Would definitely book him again!”

About: I am a retired high school educator, artist, outdoor enthusiast, and animal lover. I am a five-star walker and a very reliable and compassionate caregiver for your pet. I often feel we are kindred spirits and I am totally intrigued by their individual personalities. I have cared for dogs both personally or professionally for most of my life and willingly care for your pet and their individual needs. Whether it be exploring adventure, padding the neighborhood (walking or running), gifting belly rubs, or providing hydration & nutrition, your pet’s needs will be personalized while in my care with much love and affection. In the future, I hope to rehabilitate dogs and work with their family members to provide a safe space filled with discipline, affection, and a true sense of belonging. You can depend on me and trust that your pet will feel cherished and loved while in my care. Since retiring from teaching, my hours of 1:1 attention have expanded. I am now available to give full weekday hours to your pet in addition to my time during weekends. While caring for pets in parks and neighborhoods, I keep them on a leash during all walks and runs. If we are lounging in the yard I provide the dog an opportunity to relax on a lead while I am outdoors with them. For owners who allow their dogs to visit Lakewood Dog Park’s expansive exercise area, I monitor those dogs while they run and play off leash under my constant supervision. While indoors, I follow the rules that my pet owners prefer whether it be cuddling on furniture and slumbering in bed with me or crating them within their cozy caves with their favorite snuggle toy. I do everything I can to mirror the eating, playing, and napping comfort with the same positive experiences your pet receives in your living home while throwing in a little extra spoiling 🐶❤️🐶

“Dayna is fantastic. My dogs really liked her. She was extremely flexible as my plans changed several times. She sent lots of pictures and let me know what was happening with my fur babies every step of the way. I will definitely trust my babies with her in the near future. Highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs since I was little and have loved every second. I was always helping out my family’s and neighbor’s pets - and now I finally got my own puppy in August of 2025. Trained him all on my own and he is the sweetest boy! I work at a kindergarten with special education during the school year. Once June hits, I will be officially out for summer break and plan on focusing all my attention on Rover. I will have all the time on my hands to drop in and take care of your pets! My 10 month old dachshund is very well taken care of. He is my pride and joy - always getting all the cuddles and exercise he needs. I believe that all pets require the same love and attention that humans do and I treat them with that idea in mind.

“Brookelynn was super nice! She took on a drop in visit last minute and made sure my fur baby was well taken care of! She was also very responsive and kept me in the loop every step of the way!”

Kimbriana S.

“My cats adore Ally - she is my go-to sitter and always puts my mind at ease when I travel. I always get a full recount of the visit and she takes special care to work around my cats personality 😄 she’s the best!”

Anna B.

“Debbie was great! She went above and beyond in caring for our cats. She did everything we asked and more. I really appreciate that she cleaned the used bowls even though this was not expected. When we met before the visits, she asked great questions to really understand what we and our pets needed. I will definitely schedule Debbie again in the future.”

Janet S.

“Maya was wonderful! Followed all instructions and really took time to care for our pup, would highly recommend her for dog sitting and will definitely have her come back to care for our dogs in the future!”
