“Rebekah was an amazing and attentive caregiver for my kitties. She made them comfortable and treated them like her own. I actually got to enjoy my vacation with very little stress and worry. I would absolutely book her again.”
“Christy was wonderful!! She carefully followed cat care instructions and asked great questions when she needed. She was prompt each day and sent excellent pictures!! I felt completely comfortable being out of town. Will definitely rebook ?”
“I am a first-time customer with Rover.com. I submitted a request for a petsitter to watch my cats while I was out of state. For six days (including Labor Day weekend), Sarah M. took excellent care of my “Little Ones”. During all ten visits, she went the extra mile and cleaned up the occasional fur balls (yuck🤢) and small-scale disasters my cats made. My cats took a liking to her and that doesn’t usually happen. That means there’s something special about Sarah M. She is thorough, meticulous, kind, considerate, and professional. I’ll gladly ask her to watch my pets again! Thank you, Sarah! You’re a godsend!!😊💯👍🏾”
“Alyssa is an amazing sitter ! She does an amazing job with my dog who is really hyper and loves playing! Would definitely recommend Alyssa if you need a sitter who goes the extra mile for your pet.”
“So responsive and helpful! Stephanie showed me the ropes as a new user and helped strategize a plan to keep our cat calm through the fireworks. Her check ins were very thoughtful. I had so much confidence that our cat was not only fed but given care and attention <3”
About: I’ve spent years caring for cats of all ages and personalities, both in my own home and while working at the humane society. While there, I regularly helped with feeding, socializing, cleaning, giving medications, and working with cats who were shy, scared, or in need of extra attention. I’ve also cared for kittens, adult cats, and seniors with special needs. I have two senior cats of my own, so I’m especially familiar with the patience and gentleness they require. Whether your cat needs playtime, medication, a lap to sit on, or just someone to keep an eye on things, I’m here to help them feel safe and cared for. I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule, which makes it easy for me to work around your cat’s routine. I’m available during the week and on weekends for check-ins, feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and companionship. I know how important it is for cats to feel secure in their own space, so I’ll do my best to follow their usual routine and keep things calm and consistent while you’re away. I’m a lifelong cat lover with experience caring for cats of all ages and temperaments. I spent time volunteering at the humane society where I helped care for cats with a wide range of needs. I gave medications, spent time with shy or nervous cats, and made sure each one felt safe and loved. I also have two senior cats of my own, so I understand how important patience, gentleness, and consistency are. Whether your cat is energetic and playful or prefers quiet companionship, I’ll treat them like one of my own.
“Just the most incredible person :) Cheyene has such a pleasant demeanor, we immediately felt like our babes would be in good hands, and even one of our most shy kitties (who doesn’t come out for 98% of ppl) was rolling around for her trying to get pets from her. Cheyene has great work ethic, wonderful communication, happily went over our directions, and above all, is very caring. We hope to work w her again!!”
“Just finished up our first week with Stephanie dropping in on my husky. I have been very pleased with my experience with Stephanie so far! She has been on time and has been wonderful with communication. The pictures she sends daily are very comforting and a very thoughtful touch! It is nice to know we have someone we can trust!”
About: Have rescued and cared for dogs of every size and age and fostered 3 dogs for military families on short-term and long-term deployment and currently care for a cat and mini horse, too. I teach private guitar lessons and perform for local gigs, also produce music and create art so am home often or within a few miles. I have a multi fenced yard and three levels in my house, guests may play with my 3 dogs and cat or be safely housed on a different level or even crated if preferred
About: I've owned dogs and cats since I was a kid and love animals of all kind. Would love to give yours some attention during the day when you can't or hang out with them while you're away this summer! I'm self-employed and therefore have a very flexible schedule. Other than a few scheduled trips, I'm always home or in the area. I have tons of flexibility to help out. It's really difficult to trust someone with your pet- I totally get it. I'm a mom of two (12 and 2), a small business owner in the community, and a volunteer at my child's school and within York County. I'm happy to work with you to communicate boundaries and preferences. Safety and trust are really important to me and I hope that I'll be able to make you feel that way.
