Katherine is such a reliable and caring cat sitter. I always know my cat is in safe hands with her. I appreciate her thorough updates and feel confident in her administering my cat’s twice a day medication.

Katherine is always a reliable and communicative cat sitter. My cat loves her and snuggles on her lap whenever she comes by. I would definitely recommend Katherine!

Katherine always takes great care of my cat. She sends thorough updates, which I really appreciate. My cat has been having some issues eating consistently so it was reassuring to know that Katherine was monitoring her food intake and sharing the status with me. Journey is always so well taken care of when I get home. Katherine gives her lots of snuggles and attention, which is great for my social cat!

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.
