Safety, trust & environment

I will treat your home and pets as if they are my own. I believe that all pets deserve as much time and love as possible, so my goal is to ensure that they get the interaction they need.

Information Aaron S. would like to know about your pet

I would like context of their background and upbringing, and their tendencies (trusting vs shy, energetic vs relaxed, etc). This will allow me to cater to your pets needs as much as possible.

A typical day

I like a balance of activity and entertainment with rest and relaxation. Play time with toys followed by naps on the couch makes for a solid afternoon.

Cat person, reliable companion

Pet care experience

I'm a trusted pet sitter for a few of my friends. I secretly look forward to their vacations so I can see their companions. Growing up, my parents worked at an animal hospital, so my childhood was filled with cats, dogs, and fond memories with them. I also helped out at the hospital during high school summers. My partner and I have a kitten named Ollie that we both treasure.

Aaron took care of my indoor/outdoor cats while I was gone for about five nights. Super reliable, great communication. Highly recommend.

Aaron is an exceptional cat sitter! He went above and beyond by arranging a meet-and-greet beforehand to ensure everyone was comfortable. While I was away, I received regular photos and updates, which gave me great peace of mind. I especially appreciated his attention to detail—he even noticed and pointed out a small issue with fluid buildup in my cat's eye that I might have missed. He also made sure to incorporate daily playtime, and it’s clear he truly cares about animals. Highly recommended!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
