About: I have years of experience with pet care! Worked in a Daycare/ Boarding/ grooming facility for 2 years! Have a big heart for all furr babies💕 My schedule is very flexible through the week, with it being so flexible I’m able to give all the time to your pet and its needs and more! Caring for pets in someone else’s home means following the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding, exercise, and any special care needs. I make sure the pet has fresh water, a clean environment, and enough attention to stay comfortable and stress-free. I also respect the home by keeping it tidy, securing the space, and communicating any updates or concerns.
“Jonathan took amazing care of our two cats and kept us updated with photos and messages, which we loved. Our cats were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when we got home. We couldn’t have asked for better—highly recommend! 😸😸”
About: Dogs and cats have been a meaningful part of my life for the past 18 years, and caring for them has taught me how much love, patience, and trust goes into pet care. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone who will truly pay attention and treat them with kindness. What sets me apart is that I’m very detail-oriented and empathetic. I notice small changes in behavior, energy, appetite, or mood, and I adjust based on what each pet needs. I’m especially comfortable with senior pets and pets who need a calm, gentle approach. I can also help reinforce basic routines like feeding schedules, leash manners, and calm behavior. I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved. Here’s a good way to phrase it: I’m currently between full-time roles, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and consistent care, and I can usually accommodate mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Because my schedule is open, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, stick closely to their routines, and be reliable for last-minute or recurring bookings. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. In my home or a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, medications, and any house rules. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and I always pay attention to the pet’s behavior and comfort level. I keep the environment calm, clean, and low-stress, especially for senior dogs or pets who need extra patience. I’ll also provide updates so owners know their pet is safe, cared for, and happy.
“Sydney was very flexible and take great care of our golden retriever, Stella, while I was out of town for work. She communicated excellently and I would definitely recommend her!”
About: I’m experienced with cats and dogs Own 3 kitties My daughter is a dog trainer and boards at her facility I used to foster dogs for the Humane Society I work for myself in the beauty industry which has been hit hard by covid. Need some side work to keep busy. Exercise for me and a dog at the same time makes sense… I’m experienced with all animals and have had a dog that liked to run away. So I’m wise to the tricks No one will get lost
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my attentiveness, reliability, and respect for each pet’s personality and routine. I have experience dog sitting and walking dogs, as well as checking in on and caring for cats. I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure pets get the attention and exercise they need while their owners are away. As a cat owner myself, I understand that many cats can be shy or particular, so I’m patient and allow them to approach interaction at their own pace. With dogs, I focus on safe and engaging walks while making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m very dependable and detail-oriented, and I make it a priority to follow each owner’s instructions closely so their pet’s routine stays as consistent as possible. I also enjoy sending updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for. I work full-time as an elementary school teacher, so my availability is after school, beginning around 3:30 PM on weekdays and on weekends. I enjoy using that time to care for pets, check in on them, and make sure they are comfortable and happy while their owners are away. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. During visits I handle feeding, water, litter box cleaning, and spend time interacting with the cat in whatever way they prefer—playtime, brushing, or quiet company. I know cats can be particular, so I always respect their boundaries and let them warm up at their own pace.
“This is my first time having Shannon do a drop in visit for my dog. There was a hiccup during our first appointment but I’ve decided to still go ahead and meet her. I’m glad I did! She went above and beyond in taking care of my dog. She also sends detailed report after her drop in visits. I highly recommend her.”
“Drop in visits are always nerve racking but Matthew made sure to communicate constantly and ask all the necessary questions to make sure my 1 year old cat was comfortable and secure during my time away from home! Defenately recommend.”
“Anna was prompt with replying to messages. Clear communication and updates with photos were great. Anna took care of two cats for about a week and both of them were happy with her. My house and cats were well-taken care of!”
“I really enjoyed working with Max when I went away for Xmas! He was super responsive for our first meet-and-greet and was easy to work with began I had to reschedule my cancelled flight. Throughout the week, he provided thorough report cards and gave great PICTs/updates of my cat. My cat, Pippa, also really likes him, which is proof enough for me to know that he loves and cares for cats. 10/10 would recommend!”
About: I've loved animals my whole life and have cared for pets since 2016. I had my own bunny for five years, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how much consistency matters in pet care. Over the years, I've helped roommates, friends, and family with their pets, including feeding, walks (rain included!), baths when needed, cleaning up accidents, playtime, and companionship. While I don't yet provide emergency or medical care beyond the basics, I'm very comfortable with daily routines and making pets feel safe and loved. What sets me apart is that I'm very good at following instructions. I know every pet parent has specific preferences, and I respect that fully. During the first visit, I may ask clarifying questions to make sure I'm doing everything exactly how you like it. I also keep your home tidy and send regular updates with photos so you feel at ease. I'm available weekdays during standard working hours and would love to spend that time giving your pup or kitty attention, movement, and care. I'm currently available on weekdays during standard 9-5 hours, which makes me a great fit for midday walks, drop-in visits, and weekday care. I'm not available on weekends at this time. Since I'm focusing on weekday bookings, I'm able to give your pet my full attention during visits rather than rushing between commitments. Your pet's comfort and your home's safety are very important to me. I carefully follow all instructions, double-check doors and leashes, and make sure your pet is secure before and after walks. I maintain a calm presence and respect both your home and your pet's boundaries. I clean up after pets, keep litter areas and feeding spaces tidy, and leave your home as I found it. Clear communication is important to me, so you can expect updates, photos, and honest check-ins throughout my time with your pet.
Loyola cat parents share their Rover experiences
Miriam was amazing! My 2 cats are typically very shy and do not engage with the sitter but they came out for her. Marshmellow, my ragdoll, came to her when she came for the meet & greet visit. My kitties were happy and well cared for during the approximately 2 weeks we were away. I was very happy with her care of my large cats and her professionalism. I would happily rebook her again for my next trip.
Fernanda accepted a last minute booking and took great care of our two cats, including giving one medication. They can be a little fickle but she understood when they wanted attention and when they didn’t. She also provided good communication and pictures every visit, so we could relax knowing they were doing well. I will definitely trust her with them in the future!
Rachel is our regular and favorite cat sitter since we joined Rover over a few years ago! She’s very reliable, has excellent communication, provides fun, detailed reports and sweet photos of my two cats. I can go on trips in peace knowing Rachel is handling everything. She takes great care of my apartment and cats and they absolutely love her! Rachel is the absolute best!
Yi is an amazing pet sitter. She took great care of my cat who absolutely adores her. She gave my cat plenty of play time, treats, cuddles, fresh water and clean litter. She took the time to meet up with me and my cat to learn about our space, my cat’s personality and needs. She was respectful of my home and was a great communicator. I would definitely book with Yi again!
Anna was very communicative and detail oriented when taking care of our fur babies. Her updates were very sweet and she provided a lot of pictures of the babies while we were away. We are very thankful for her help with checking in on our cats while we were out of the country. - Mathilde & Enes
Shannon is very dependable and she is experienced with our cats. She did everything we asked her to do, she also does the little things like managing the lights and helped bringing in our packages. We appreciate working with you Shannon and will certainly ask for you again next time we travel.
Madison was fantastic with our two cats and did a wonderful job keeping our plants watered and happy while we were away! She sent great updates with photos, which put our minds at ease. The cats warmed up to her quickly and seemed very comfortable. Our plants looked just as healthy when we returned. Highly recommend Madison — reliable, caring, and communicative. 5/5 stars!
