Pet care experience

Pur-fect Care for Your Furry Friend

I’ve loved animals my whole life and grew up in a home full of cats and dogs…17 total! Over the years, I’ve cared for both cats and dogs, giving me plenty of pet sitting experience. Most recently, I fostered a cat until she was adopted while simultaneously taking care of my own, Sesame, so I understand the love, patience, and attention pets need to feel safe and happy. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just company, I’ll make sure your pet feels cared for like family.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When I’m caring for cats or dogs in your home, I make sure their space stays secure: doors and windows checked, food and water refreshed, bathroom and walk breaks, and litter boxes kept clean. I also spend quality time with them so they feel comfortable and cared for, not just looked after!

Joan is an amazing cat sitter. This is my 2nd time having her watch my cats for a whole week while I was away. She’s kind, reliable, and genuinely cares about my girls. I always feel completely at ease knowing they’re in her care when I’m away. She keeps me updated and makes sure they’re happy and comfortable, not just “checked on.” I always come home to a clean space and well-cared-for cats. Highly recommend her!

Absolutely recommend Joan!! She took amazing care of my two cats, Stassi and Lady Gaga, and truly went above and beyond. She sent detailed, thoughtful updates that made it easy to relax while I was away, and it was clear she really cared about the girls and their routines. During a snowstorm, she also went out of her way to drip my faucets, check on the house, and bring in my mail without being asked, which I appreciated so much!! Reliable, kind, and incredibly thoughtful. I would 100% book Joan again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can truly trust. Thanks again Joan!!

Before caring for a cat or dog, it’s helpful to know their feeding schedule, litter box/bathroom break routine, and any health needs like medications or allergies. I also like to learn about their personality, favorite toys, and hiding spots so I can make them feel comfortable. Safety is important too, so I ask whether they’re indoor-only or allowed outside, and always keep vet and emergency contacts on hand.
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.
