Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Currently, 3 cats live with me. Jax, Pepper and Harley. My day begins with their wake up call around 5:30 am. Food first, followed by fresh water and litter box. Then play and cuddle time. For the last several years, I've had the luxury of working from home. One or two can usually be found in my home office relaxing, while Pepper chooses to be Director of Security. He monitors the dwelling from the inside by scanning from window to door and repeat. I have noisy bells on all door handles to spook them to run back from an open door. No one escapes!

We really were at ease knowing Catherine was watching Simon. He is elderly and needs gentle care and Catherine loved on him like we would. Thank you!

She made it through snow ice and darkness to care for Gary! Can’t ask more than that

Cathy was all I could have hoped for in a caregiver for my sweet kitty. She was loving and followed my directions carefully. Philly was happy to see me when I got home, but calm and content. She had eaten her normal amount of food and Cathy sent pics of Philly playing! The pics were very reassuring. Thank you Cathy.

Taking the time to write thorough, detailed notes during the Meet and Greet is very important to me. These notes stay with me for every visit so I can follow each pet’s routine exactly as discussed. In homes with multiple pets, there may be designated feeding stations or specific instructions for each animal. I carefully document these details and often take a photo of their feeding lineup to make sure everything stays organized and consistent. With decades of hands-on experience, I am confident caring for pets of all ages, temperaments, and special needs. You can rest easy knowing your pet is in caring and experienced hands.
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.
