About: 🐾Trusted Care in a Loving Home Environment🤍 Animals have always been my greatest passion and purpose. I’ve dedicated my life to improving the welfare of our animal community. I’m well known in the rescue world and have worked alongside many rescues, assisting with T&R programs, Foster Care, Rehoming & Placement Assistance, Behavioral & Physical Rehabilitation, Feral Rehabilitation and more!. I’ve spent many years loving animals of all kinds — from training sea lions 🩶🦭, rehabilitating wildlife & domestic animals, fostering adoptive pets, bottle feeding babies, providing care for seniors & pets with various medical issues, assisting pet parents with hospice care, working with special-needs, behavioral issues & rescue pets who require patience, understanding, and expert care to of course providing professional pet care services. I have been offering pet care services to clients for over a decade. I have extensive experience in animal rehabilitation, including administering medication, performing life-saving procedures, supporting post-surgery recovery, and managing both physical and behavioral issues. Over the years, I’ve cared for countless animals with conditions such as arthritis, allergies, anxiety, collapsing tracheas, and other age-related or chronic illnesses. My background has equipped me with strong knowledge in pet illness prevention, senior care, physical therapy, and behavioral management. My home is very quiet and stress free. There are no children present or any people traffic. I take requests and make accommodations for pet owners, if a dog or cat is better suited as the only animal present during their stay, just let me know! I spend the duration of a booking and focus 100% of my effort entertaining and attending to pets. Your pet will never be unattended for the duration of a booking. We are kennel free, unless it’s part of your pets regular routine. I currently care for multiple rotating rescue animals and understand that every pet has their own story, needs, and comfort level. I approach each one with compassion, respect, and a calm, confident energy that helps them feel secure and loved. I’m also experienced with administering oral and topical medications, wound care, specialized diets, and gentle rehabilitation exercises to help pets heal and thrive.
“Eleanor did an amazing job with my dog, Bruno! We were out of town for 5 days and she went above and beyond for us. Our main need was dog walks but also we asked for her to help water the plants, feed our dog and make sure he has water and put our trash bins on the curb on trash day. She was amazing and so helpful with eve we asked. 100% recommend her! Thank you, Eleanor!!”

I provide a safe, loving, and attentive environment for every pet in my care. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special needs. I make sure pets feel comfortable and secure, whether in my home or theirs. I pay close attention to behavior and safety at all times, and I’m happy to give updates so you feel confident your pet is in good hands.
“Victoria was awesome to have check in on our little one while away! She was very communicative and through. I felt confident that everything was done as needed. She even gave updates on the house when she noticed some water leaking and the trash bins moved from where they were the day before. I will definitely be reaching out for more cat care in the future !”
About: I currently have a dog and have had another dog previously. I currently work in special education and also support my mother who has progressing dementia. I intend on making sure needs are being met while maintaining and building relationships. I’m working full time as a teacher and going to school full-time. I currently walk my dog the morning before going to work and when I arrive home. I’m flexible on the weekends and some week days. Since I work for the school I get a lot of holidays and week breaks, so I am able to have more availability. I ensure their needs are met by taking them for walks, feeding them, and ensuring they’re using the bathroom. I also give baths to keep them smelling fresh.
About: I've taken care of cats and dogs alike for friends and family forever! I am great with making meals, administering medication, and keeping things clean!

I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and instructions, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and cleaning litter boxes. I’ll give your pets plenty of love and attention and make sure your home is secure before I leave.
About: For 2 yrs, I was a volunteer for an animal shelter, Berkeley Humane, and took care of dogs & cats needs. I’ve also have plenty experience watching overs friends’ loved ones and had no problems at all. I’ve been and capable to watch, walk, play and make sure your loved one gets all the attention as if they were my own. I absolutely love dogs & cats. I’ve grown up with many pets before, and now I have a sweet, yet energetic of my own. I love to walk and I would love to get the opportunity to walk your dog. I’m currently a full-time artist at home. I’m almost home 24/7. I’m only gone for 2 hours to go to the gym. However, I do keep my dog inside the crate too so I would need your dog to be crate trained in case I need to leave the house. This provides a safety and peaceful nap-time for the babies so when I come back, we are all ready to play again! I’m very respectful and clean of one’s property and of my own. I follow instructions clearly and ask important questions needed to ensure I have all the correct info. All always update you and ensure your fur baby is happy & loved :)

This was my very first time using someone other than a trusted family member to take care of our beloved cat. Luckily I matched with Abby and from our first meeting, I felt very comfortable knowing she would care for my kitty with compassion and kindness. Abby was very astute to my needs as a pet owner and really set my mind at ease! The picture updates were awesome as well as the personal messages really comforted us knowing our cat’s emotional and physical needs were being met. Thanks again!
Kieran was super nice and was always on time . He did everything I asked for and though my very shy cat never came out from under the bed , Kieran was fantastic in taking care of her and doing everything that I asked him to do ! I will absolutely hire him again and definitely recommend him to anyone who is looking for a reliable pet sitter thanks Kieran
Melissa looked after my cat while I was away, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was reliable and attentive. Communication was excellent. I received regular updates, which gave me peace of mind knowing my cats were safe and comfortable. She followed instructions carefully, gave medication and prescribed diet on schedule to one of them who is sick. She was brave enough to learn how to do a fluids IV. I highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a sitter who is not only reliable but also compassionate and capable of handling special needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,125 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Knightsen. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
