Top rated Leland cat sitters
“Kara took fabulous care of my cat while I was away! My cat is very shy but actually was hanging out with Kara by the end of the visits! Great communication and I got lots of pictures and updates.”
“Jonathan was great with my two kitties!! From the meet and greet through the drop in visits, he was extremely responsive and attentive. Even asking about things I hadn’t thought of that he could take care of. He gave me peace of mind while away knowing that the kitties were well cared for. I’d highly recommend him!!”
“Jennifer was great, my cat is my pride and joy! She made sure that Nala was well taken care of and sent me lots of photos. Overall she was great and will be requesting her in the future!!!”
About: I have had pets all my life, I have house, pet and plant sat for 18 years now. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs and cats. Medications are no problem. I enjoy walks just as much as the dogs! I typically travel through a house and pet sitting site. I love it so much I thought I would make it my job! My schedule is flexible. I care for pets in their own homes. Rover insists you start out boarding in the sitters home but I do not offer this service. I pet sit in the clients home only. Thanks :)
About: I have a 6-year-old Great Pyrenees named Nala, a sweet and loyal guard dog, so I have experience and comfort interacting with all sizes, big and small. I also have two boy cats, Widget and Panko, whom I adopted 8 years ago. I love animals! Over the years, my friends and family have entrusted me with the care of their pets (and home) whenever they're out of town. I work in the field of film, which is typically 3-4 projects a month, so I have pretty open availability for pet care in the days between. I like to ensure that both pets and pet parents feel taken care of, whatever is needed to feel comfort and trust and not have to worry about anything. Beyond the essential needs, I like to go above and beyond by including whatever unique interactions, games, treats, routines, training needs, or other fun things the pet(s) are engaging with at that time.
“Christina was so nice and took great care of our dog Hugo during the drop in visit. We look forward to her house sitting soon! We feel very comfortable that she’ll take amazing care of our house, cat, and dog when we need that in the future. :)”
“Leanne is an extremely conscientious pet sitter. She spent extra time with our dogs to ensure they were comfortable with her prior to us going out of town, and was extremely communicative the entire time we were away. We will definitely trust our dogs in her care in the future and are so glad we found her on the Rover app!”
“Autumn did a great job with our cat, Benny. Communication was easy and efficient. At our initial visit, Autumn was attentive to all of the instructions for meds, so I was comfortable with entrusting him to her care. (Benny has a heart condition requiring medications at 12 hour intervals). While we were away, Autumn recorded her visits and sent photos to let us know how things were going. By the final visit, it was clear from the pictures that she and Benny were good friends. I would, without reservation, recommend Autumn and use her services again.”
About: I love all kinds of animals! I have a pointer/lab mix and mini dauschund of my own, and they are my tag alongs for all sorts of adventures! I also had a variety of frogs, lizards, hamsters, guinea pigs when I was growing up. Most notably, my bearded dragon Cricket who lived to be 16 years old! Additionally, I have experience pet-sitting and dog walking for family members as well as friends and neighbors. I have helped friends with their chickens and other farm animals as well! I live a very active lifestyle and love hiking and swimming, both alone as well as with four-legged friends. I am currently running a small bagel business 2-3 days a week. Outside of a select couple of mornings, my availability is fairly open and flexible! I have a lot of experience with energetic dogs and bring a calm energy to my interactions with them. I respect animals personal space and allow them to approach me when they are comfortable. Most dogs i have met are very comfortable with me because of body language!
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life and am hoping to work with people to care for their animals. I love all cats and dogs, big and small. I have experience with large dog breeds and special needs cats ie. Diabetic and special foods. Trusting your pet sitter can ease so many worries while you you’re not able to be with your animal. I will provide not only pet care but love and cuddles!! I work in Traverse City during the day and would be able to stay in your home to manage your pet’s care to maximize their comfort at home. My work days vary however, on days that I work I can provide morning and evening care. On my off days I can be available all day. Whether you have a list of instructions or a loose schedule for your animal/s I hope to work with you to help your time away go as smoothly as possible. I have a cat of my own and know how nice it is to get updates and photos so I am happy to do that!
“Sara did an excellent job with my 3 Labrador retrievers. She did a 30 minute drop in and walked them, played with them and walked them again. It was perfect. She followed my instructions, communicated well and sent photo updates. I know my pups had a good time with her and they were well cared for. l would definitely recommend her to others.”
About: I love animals! I took care of my own pets & those of friends and family before I began to professionally dog-sit in 2008. I do occasional cat care as well, which I began in 2007. I live with my partner, Michael & our dog, Kyro, at the top of Old Mission Peninsula. I work part-time to full-time in any given week, so I have a ton of variety with my schedule. This gives me the time to stop in & check on your doggies, care for them, play, sometimes go to the dogpark or other destination :) I provide pet care in the client's home via drop-ins. I also provide boarding for dogs and cats, and occasionally house-sit. I have oral med experience for both cats and dogs, though I have not given any medications intravenously yet. However, I'm open to being trained on how you administer the intravenous meds needed for your pet's proper medical care.
About: I have been a dog and cat owner/lover my whole life! I currently have 2 dogs (big and little) and they are my world!! I will take great care of your dog/cat and treat them with the most care and love anyone could ask for!! Whether I am walking your dog for an hour or spending the night with your dog/cat, they will be taken care of like they never have before. I specialize in getting dogs the right amount of exercise in a day. It is very important to keep them healthy and happy. I have dog and cat sat ever since I was young and have always been recommended by the owners to their friends/family. I sincerely love animals so much and love making them happy! I work 30 - 34 hours a week and can easily add this type of service to my routine. I think being in this smaller town makes it easy to get around :) I care for them with love and kindness. My goal is to make sure my client’s pet happy while they are away & I believe I do that and more.

About: I’ve had pets since I was a child and recently had to say “farewell for now” to my best friend, Chuck. He was a rescue and about 15ish when he passed. That being said, I have extensive experience with senior dogs. They are angels sent from above and deserve all the love and attention in the world! I just moved to Traverse City with my boyfriend from Florida and I haven’t found a full time job yet so I am available any day, any time right now. I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own, including frequent status updates and pictures of our adventures together. People have often said to me that they want to come back someday as my pet. 🤓
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a teenager. My mom is a dog groomer, and I've always loved being around animals. I volunteered at animal shelters while living in South Korea. I have a goal of 15,000 steps a day, so dog walking is really the perfect job for me. I just moved back to the United States after 15 years living overseas. I'm currently just readjusting to life in America and looking for a fun, stress-free job. I will not be taking care of pets in my home. I have two cats and they do not like dogs. I also live in a small apartment.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 12. As an experience equestrian that spent time living on a farm I’ve been in charge of all kind of animals including dogs, cats, chickens, and even horses! I’m currently doing a remote internship. I work from home full time Monday-Wednesday. I work part time locally the rest of the week but have plenty of flexibility. My top priority is making sure your pet feels comfortable. I’ll adapt to each pet’s unique routine whether that includes going on long walks or just a quick break out in the yard. I’ll follow your instructions closely to do whatever keeps you pet the happiest!
About: Hi there! This is our first time with a commercial app, usually we keep our sitting to a tight knit circle but we recently lost two of our favorite boys and are looking to add a couple of new families to work with!

I currently work from home so as long as you have a strong, secure connection I can bring my work with me to spend more time with your pets! Please let me know about any special care your pet might need! I am certain that we will hit it off and be the best of friends!

James C.
“This is the sitter you've been looking for full stop. When looking for someone to watch your precious pets, and likely be in your space, you need someone you fully trust. You want someone who is willing to go above and beyond if the need should arise. Fortunately for myself (and YOU), that person is James! James has cared for my 3 cats and German Shepherd dog multiple times. Those periods have been a short as a weekend, and as long as 2 weeks. Every time, not only are the pets happy as can be, but we received updates throughout and he took care to ensure no blemish was left on our house. James is incredibly responsible, a pet owner/lover himself, and has my full trust when taking care of my family. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a top-notch pet sitter.”
