Cat Sitting in Lodi

“Melissa definitely exceeded my expectations. My cat is 19 years old and we had to change how meds were being given mid-week because of his behavior. She didn't have an issue at all and just did what he needed. Even when she couldn't get a hold of me immediately because I was out of the country, she made the absolute correct decision for him based on our previous conversations. The pictures and videos she sent made me feel a lot better about leaving him in her care as I was quite nervous to leave him alone as long as I did. She made sure to give him cuddles and play with him on each visit and get me an update on how he was eating and acting so I could be at ease. We are definitely saving her info for the next time!”

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals and have lived in multi-pet households my entire life. I grew up with dogs and cats and adopted my own cat as soon as I moved out. I also recently welcomed a puppy, giving me current, real-world experience with puppy care, routines, training foundations, and enrichment. I’ve provided care through walks, structured play, comfort, and maintaining established routines for dogs, as well as attentive care for cats with a wide range of personalities, including shy, independent, and multi-cat households. I have experience maintaining safe separations, managing barriers, and following strict routines in homes with cats that do not get along, always prioritizing safety and stress reduction. I also have experience caring for small animals such as guinea pigs, including daily feeding, cage cleaning, and enrichment. I am comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and providing safe transportation when needed. I prioritize consistency, clear communication, and each pet’s emotional well-being, and I treat every animal as an individual with unique needs. I provide reliable and loving care for pets while balancing my work from home schedule and caring for my own dog and cat. I am available for drop ins and dog walks on Monday, Thursday, and Friday evenings as well as most of Saturday for flexible daytime visits. I have experience caring for cats, dogs, and small pets and I am comfortable administering medications, maintaining feeding routines, and reading pet body language. I focus on providing play, exercise, and companionship while keeping pets happy, healthy, and safe, giving owners peace of mind while they are away. When caring for pets during drop ins and walks, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness while following the owner’s instructions. During drop-ins, I provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes or potty areas, give attention and playtime, and offer companionship to keep pets comfortable while their owners are away. For dog walks, I ensure pets get the appropriate amount of exercise and mental stimulation, monitor their behavior closely, and use safe walking practices at all times. I also provide updates to owners so they can see that their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.

“Jessica did a great job of keeping our kitty from getting too lonely and checking on her needs. It's our first time using Rover.com. We'll ask for her again, for sure.”

“Chloe did a great job taking care of my two cats while we were away. She plays with them, takes pictures, is responsive to messages, and her love for animals is apparent. She also took out my trash and brought the bins back in. One of my cats made a mess and I appreciate her cleaning it up. I feel confident Chloe is taking good care of my cats while I’m away. I’ll definitely use her again in the future!”

“Lynn was a lifesaver! She was reliable, communicated every day with me, and noticed Rocky’s feeder was malfunctioning. She gave him the food he needed, and Iet me know so I was able to fix the feeder remotely. Rocky seemed very happy to see me, and was well taken care of. Definitely will use Lynn again!”

“Megan did great with my cats. They’re usually a little shy with new people but looks like they were comfortable with her right away. If the cats are happy and content then I’m happy, will book Megan again!”

About: I’ve cared for my own animals for 23 years and want to spread what knowledge I have and help others. I have always loved animals and want to care for them knowing how important our fur babies are. I have experience with many different dog and cat breeds and have no fears or difficulties with all breeds, minor allergies to some cat breeds. I am 28, just moved to the area and working park time as a behavioral aid in the school district. I have always loved animals, nature, exploring, traveling, and art. I’ve grown up caring for others and animals knowing the importance of caring for those who cannot help themselves. Our fur babies are of utmost importance to me and I hope to care for yours. Working part time has been convenient I have plenty of time to do pet sitting overnight, check-ins throughout the day, or simple walkies when needed. I have experience in houses with larger fenced yards, minimal fenced yards, partially fenced, or just patios and have no issue walking the pet as needed. I have minor experience administering medicine, and have no issues with any clean up the pet might make. I have experience walking medium/large stronger dogs as I have a husky mix and have always had sheep dogs. I have experience with smaller ones as, I had a chihuahua mix growing up who had constant seizures, and have had lots of friends with all sized pets.

“Tierra was great with our home and our Fatty Cat! She is responsive, professional, communicative and did everything I asked for perfectly! I’m so glad we already have future bookings with her!”

Shelly A.

“Trustworthy and communicative. I am new to rover and have never had a cat sitter off this platform. I booked Jeffery on very short notice having never met him in person, but he turned out to be trustworthy and attentive to my needs and the needs of my cat. Jeffery did everything I asked him to do, took pictures of the cat, and did a good job.”

About: With over a decade of hands-on experience in animal care, I've dedicated my life to working with pets. I have experience working for animal services and nonprofit rescues. I'm certified in basic obedience dog training and as a veterinary assistant, ensuring your pet receives both loving attention and knowledgeable care. Whether it's playtime, walks, or special needs, I treat every pet like my own—with patience, compassion, and a lot of tail wags! I currently work part-time at a non-profit animal rescue and also help my husband run our home-based computer repair and IT consulting business. This flexible schedule gives me plenty of time to give your furry companion the attention, exercise, and snuggles they deserve. Because I work from home, I’m able to keep a close and caring eye on any pets staying with us, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and right at home Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home features a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can enjoy outdoor time securely, and a security screen front door adds an extra layer of protection.

“Stephanie was fantastic with our rabbit and feral cats. She kept everything tidy and we came home to happy, well-fed kitties and peace of mind. Highly recommend.”

Karen M.

“Tiffany has taken care of my home and 2 kitties many times. It makes traveling so much easier, knowing I'll come home and find the house in order and two happy, healthy cats.”

“I will definitely use Kelsee's services the next time we travel. She was always pleasant and flexible. I could not have asked for better. She gave us just enough contact with text and photos to keep us comfortable. We knew our 20-year-old cat was in good hands. She also kept the wild birds fed and potted plants watered. Thank you Kelsee!”

About: I’ve been around animals in and outside of my home since i was born. I’ve always had at least one dog since i was seven and currently have three. I am certified with Wag! as well and have been working with horses for 5-6 years so i’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages and other pets you might have in your home. I stay pretty active so long walks or runs aren’t a problem either. I’m available for drop ins, walks, and sitting, overnight, early morning or anytime you need including most holidays and weekends if it’s scheduled at least one day in advance. I’d love to provide whatever your dog needs including special requests and of course love. Long term and recurring setups are preferred but short or one time things are always good too, let me know and i’ll work with you to make sure your dogs are well cared for. My schedule is very flexible, I can usually accept same day requests, long term sitting requests (longer than 3 days) will be easier to commit to with 1-2 days advanced notice I will work with whatever your dog's needs are! I have training experience with ecollar, prong collar, gentle leader, vocal cue and signal commands, and I can maintain your pups training whether they are months or years old! I can provide any level of exercise, special care, grooming, etc. that your dog is used to.

“Emily was wonderful with my cat for the 12 days I was gone. When Tiggy met her she immediately bonded with her. Tiggy was well cared for & the daily comments & pictures I received were both fun to get & reassuring. When I returned, my girl was happy & healthy. I highly recommend Emily for your pet care needs!”
