Top rated Jacobsville cat sitters
“Aimee was very responsive and communicative which is reassuring while you’re away. She was sweet with my cats and understanding about their quirks. I will definitely hire her again next time I’m traveling!”
“Rebecca was great! My two kitties seemed to really take to her. She was on time, did everything I requested, great communication, and took good care of my babies! I'll definitely be booking her again!”
“Heather was so amazing! She really saved us by accepting a short notice booking and not only giving my kitty his dinner but taking time to play with him and entice him from under the bed...lol. Thank you so much Heather. So happy to find a responsive and reliable carer for Smokey and will absolutely book with you again soon!”
“Brandi was great for our first booking! Our dogs love her & she documented everything they did for the drop-in hour she was with them. It was such peace of mind to know our babies were in loving hands. I've already booked Brandi again for our cats during the holidays & we'll have a much better trip knowing she's with our boys.”
“We have used Jaclyn as a pet sitter several times over the past 2 years and every time it has been great. We appreciate the daily communications and her reliability. Thank you!”
“Allison is fantastic! She’s super patient, reliable, and Eclipse absolutely adores her. I always feel at ease knowing my pup is in such loving hands. Lots of playtime and care every visit—highly recommend!”
“Cassie K was absolutely amazing! She cared for our cat Tessa for a full week and went above and beyond—feeding, tending to her litter box , giving porch time, and even wiping Tessa’s little drippy eye. She sent daily photos, videos, and even a fun cartoon picture, which gave us so much peace of mind. On her last day, she surprised us with a compilation video of Tessa from the week! Cassie also fed our outdoor critters, watered plants, emptied the pool filter, and brought in a package. She was always on time, reliable, and left everything perfect. We couldn’t have asked for better care—We highly recommend Cassie K!”
“Alex and Andrea did another great job with our cat, Masha! It snowed twice while we were away in Florida, and they did a great job making sure Masha still got her meals and medication on time. Without a doubt, we recommend them for your pet sitting needs!”
“We have worked with Cyndi a few times to drop in and check on our kitties when we’ve been gone. And we feel so comfortable with her and confident that they will be well taken care of! Cyndi is quick to respond and works with you about any changes- she makes traveling easier know the pets are taken care of. I highly recommend her!”
“Alise took amazing care of my kitties while I was out of town for over a week. She was communicative, reliable, and sent really nice photos and updates every visit. Would absolutely recommend and book her again!”
“This was my first experience using Rover. Veronica was highly recommended and upon meeting her, she quickly put my mind to ease. Both of my cats have some anxiety and are typically M.I.A. whenever we have guests over. I gave Veronica a heads up that she likely wouldn’t see either of cats during her visits. She was more than happy to check in, feed & just be a general presence in our home, each day that we were out of town.. despite never really even seeing either cat. There were a few incidents with hairballs, vomit etc. and I felt so terrible that Veronica had to clean it up! She did so without any hesitation or complaint. She kept me up to date during each visit (even regarding the thunderstorms rolling through the area!) and sent photos. She tried every tip & trick to get our girls to come out and play, but they were just too stubborn. Veronica had locked up our home after her last visit just as we asked and when my husband and I returned after our trip, everything was exactly as we left it. I felt so comfortable with Veronica coming by to visit and look in on our cats. I would really love to find a longterm petsitter and am hoping that Veronica might possibly consider doing so again in the (near) future! I truly cannot thank you enough for all your time & care! You’ve made a lasting impression!”
“Jessica was outstanding with my pet cat! She was a natural and my Pookee loved her. Jessica not only took care of my cat, she also took care of the kitchen and miscellaneous supplies needed to get the job done. I was so happy with her results. I thoroughly recommend her if you have a cat that needs to be taken care of while you are away. Jessica is outstanding. I cannot say enough good things about her. She’s the best!”
“Went above and beyond our expectations of caring for our 6 cats while out of town for a weekend. I would definitely recommend using her and will be rebooking with her again in the future. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our fur babies while we were away!”
“Brianna was very flexible and communicative for a long stay with my very socially needy cats! We will definitely look forward to her cat sitting for us again in the future!”
“I don’t think we can thank Maura enough for the help and care she provided for our boys!! She was able to come on a short notice, and our boys loved her from the first visit! She sent us lots of pictures and updates on each drop in which made us feel happy and confident in the care and love the dogs received!! Thank you again Maura!”
