happy to help & give your pet love!

Pet care experience

Hi there! I would love to watch and take care of your cat(s)! I currently have 2 cats: Bug & Korra. They are like my children. I absolutely love meeting new cats and making sure they are getting what they need while you’re away :) on the contrary, I did grow up with dogs and my immediate family still have a doodle to this day, so I am familiar and happy to take care of your dog as well. I love to spend time and play with cats as well as go out for walks and throw a ball for dogs! I recently had to care for my senior dog before his passing so I’m also comfortable going the extra mile for an elderly pet. I also love to get the perfect photo for your rover card, check out my gallery of photos to see the cuties I’ve cared for in the past! Some info regarding my services: House sitting requests are ONLY for overnight care. Ideally starting at 6-7pm and ends in the morning. I can of course be flexible when needed. So, feel free to message me so we can discuss what you need :) The price is set for that type of care- monitoring your pet, feeding, bathroom break(s) for one evening into the morning! If you need care during the day for a period of time please use drop-in visit requests! This ensures I will be compensated hourly for the time I am with your pet. My house sitting rate is not for any extended care during the day. I understand the price on Rover can become expensive for long periods of time during the day but I set the cost for what I believe is fair for me during those hours. I hope you all can understand!

I have used Kately twice now for my elder cat of 15 years. She was great at giving Sushi her meds and spending time with her. I would book her again in a heartbeat.

Katelyn had been really great, kind and lovely with our cat. She respond very quickly when I asked her to keep our cat (less 24h before the first day). Thanks Katelyn, we are happy to find you like pet sitter.

Katie was great and responded to a sitter request on short notice when I had recently moved into town. She took good care of my two cats and provided regular updates and pictures for me to follow while I was out of town. She is very friendly and easygoing, and I look forward to working with her again in the future!

For my 2 cats I make sure they get enough love, food/water and play time daily. I keep their litter box clean and make sure they have plenty of beds to nap in. I recently had to care for my childhood dog in the last years of his life and made sure to keep him stress free & comfortable in that time.

If applicable, I’d love to know your pets energy level, their favorite toy or how to approach them in the best way. I always want to make sure I enter your home with respect for you as well as for your pet. Thank you!

A typical day

Physical and mental stimulation are both super important for both cats and dogs. I’m willing to drive to the park for walks or to throw around their favorite toy or even put your cats harness on to enjoy the outdoors! Whatever your pet needs to happy and relaxed at the end of my visit.
