Cat Specialist - Privately Insured

I have extensive experience of over 40 years with cats of all ages, from kittens to seniors. I am Canadian Red Cross Pet First Aid Certified. As a proud long time resident of New Westminster and experienced pet sitter (specializing in cats), I provide personalized drop in visits (1 or 2x daily) within our local community. ⭐ What You Can Expect • Reliable, consistent daily visits • Slow, respectful approach for nervous cats • Photos, updates, and notes for every visit • Medication experience (pills or liquid meds) • A calm, clean, stress-free environment during visits ⭐ Reviews & Community I’m newer to Rover, but definitely not new to pet sitting — I’ve been working with local families in New West for a while. If you’d like to see what clients have said about me, I’ve got lots of reviews and photos posted on my FB business page -Pawsitively Local Pet Care. It’ll give you a good sense of my style and how I care for the cats I look after. ⭐ My Promise Comfort for your cat. Reliability for you. I treat every cat like they’re my own — with patience, kindness, and a whole lot of love.

I found myself in need of a cat sitter last minute and found Jody. Communication was prompt and clear. I left for my trip feeling at ease. I enjoyed the daily updates. Jody goes above and beyond. I came home to happy cats and a tidy space. Grateful!

Jody was absolutely wonderful, and I couldn't recommend her more. After needing to find a cat sitter at the last minute, I was nervous, but she exceeded every expectation. She sent lots of photos and videos during every visit, and it was obvious how quickly Murphy trusted her. She went above and beyond by grooming him, trimming his nails at no extra charge, bringing in a package, even repairing my broken key fob, and leaving everything just so. Her communication was thoughtful and detailed, and I came home to a very happy cat. It's rare to find someone who cares this much. I'll definitely be booking Jody again and would recommend her without hesitation.

Jody is FABULOUS! If you have a cat, you want Jody taking care of them. It's such a relief to travel and know my boy is with someone I trust who treats him like the princess he is. Jody always sends great photos and thorough updates. Will be using her for the rest of time

Jody cared for my three cats so well when I was away. I needed someone urgently due to a family emergency and she was efficient in responding and helpful in getting everything arranged to come meet me and learn my cats' routines. My kitties were brushed and cuddled daily. My place was left spotless. Jody went above and beyond.

Jody is our go to sitter for our fur babies! She is always available when you need her, and she was able to help us out last minute which we really appreciated! As always, Jody provides top notch love and care and always ensure our cats are well taken care of while we are away. We recommend Jody to anyone needing sitting and animal care services. Thanks again Jody!

I’ve been caring for cats for decades and have two senior sisters in my own home. I specialize in gentle, attentive care for shy, senior, and routine-loving kitties.

Before caring for your cat, I want to make sure I understand their unique needs and personality. It’s important for me to know things like: - Daily routine (feeding times, litter box setup, play preferences) - Medical needs (allergies, medications, special diets, mobility concerns) - Behavioral quirks (shyness, territorial habits, door-dashing, scratching, hiding spots) - Social preferences (whether they enjoy cuddles, playtime, or prefer quiet companionship; how they react to new people or other pets) - House rules (e.g., no counters, no outdoor access, furniture rules, treat preferences) The more I know ahead of time, the better I can provide safe, consistent, and loving care—just like you would!
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.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
