I love cats, dogs, and people!

Pet care experience

I’m an ASPCA volunteer and frequent pet-sitter for neighbors, friends, and friends-of-friends. As my friend (a Rover user when I'm not available) says, "I have good cat instincts." I like to believe that also applies to dogs! I am a young professional working as a writer and editor, and I am looking for a way to add to my income and my happiness. I am responsible and will follow your instructions to the letter. I truly enjoy dogs and cats, so I will go above and beyond to make sure your pet is comfortable, happy, and tuckered out from playing! My 6-year-old puppy lives with my parents, so I can't wait to shower your pet in affection. Capable of administering medication. References available upon request.

Ilyssa is the greatest! She came to take care of our two cats while we were away, and we couldn't be happier with her. She is very thorough with each visit and really takes the time to fill out each report card complete with pictures. She goes above what we ask of her, and makes us feel comfortable leaving our cats in her care. I highly recommend Ilyssa, we will definitely continue to reach out to her for our future trips!

Ilyssa is extremely attentive & friendly - she made sure to ask questions I didn't even think of and was very flexible in coming to meet me beforehand. I've found my new cat-sitter!

Ilyssa is our go-to caregiver when we need help caring for our 4-year-old dog. She loves being with him and it is clear that he loves being cared for by Ilyssa as he becomes super excited when she arrives. She feeds, bathes and brushes him, and makes sure he has the opportunity for regular exercise by walking and playing with him outside as much as the weather allows. Perhaps most importantly, she is reliable and responsible; we know that we can rely on Ilyssa. She has earned our heartfelt gratitude and sincere recommendation!

Ilyssa has taken care of my dog Charlie many times. She is loving, careful and meticulous. She has walked him and cleaned up after him uncountable times. She has bathed him, brushes him regularly, knows how to and what to feed him to keep him happy and healthy. She is a wonderful caregiver and I recommend her without reservation!
