Can’t go wrong with a feline friend
Pet care experience
I’ve had a cat of my own, on my own, since I was 18. I had a senior cat (until she passed in ‘21) and now I have one 6 year old orange tabby named Oscar and a 2 year old tuxedo named Willow. I also have experience pet sitting (drop in visits) with multiple coworkers and church friends 🐾
Reviews
Linda was great! Our cats love her and she gave us wonderful daily updates.
Linda was awesome taking care of our kitties! She even won over our often standoffish cat - the first sitter to accomplish this feat. We don't travel often but definitely plan to ask Linda back when we do. Thank you so much!
This was Linda's second time coming in to look after Cisco while I was away-and I couldn't be more happy that she accepted my booking after the last time! Looking after the "commander" is no small feat and Linda's dedication and expertise was nothing short of exceptional. From the very beginning, her punctuality was a reassuring constant. Always arriving on time, she seamlessly integrated into my cat's routine, ensuring a sense of stability and comfort in my absence. What truly separated Linda apart was the thoughtful touch of detailed daily notes and photos she left after each visit. It wasn't just about fulfilling a task; it was about creating a connection and keeping me intimately informed about my cat's well-being. Beyond the basics, Linda went above and beyond by sharing valuable insights into cat care. Her accommodation and consistency were remarkable. Whether adapting to unexpected changes or maintaining a reliable schedule, Linda demonstrated a level of flexibility that made the entire experience stress-free. Linda exhibited not just a job but a passion for cat sitting. Her expertise in understanding cat behavior was evident, and it translated into a level of care that exceeded my expectations. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Linda for her professionalism, genuine care, and the exceptional service she provides. My cat not only received top-notch care but also formed a bond with a caregiver who truly understands and loves animals. For any future pet-sitting needs, Linda will undoubtedly be my first choice. Thank you Linda!
This being my 1st Rover experience I went in a bit nervous, but Linda went above and beyond to ensure that everything would be just fine. She was responsive, polite, caring, took great photos, and absolute pleasure to work with. After my first evening away I knew that I had made the right decision to leave my little Ibuki in Linda's care.

Safety, trust & environment
In my home, there are multiple litter boxes to ensure a clean environment, as well as a water fountain. My own cats have microchip feeders so no need to worry about your cat getting into their food. And I will supervise feeding of your pet to ensure they get all their delicious meals and become members of the “clean plate club”! I also have tons of toys and cat furniture for them to play on. They would be welcome on all couches/chairs and in my bedroom as they feel comfortable. Of course, in your home I would follow all safety and care rules you lay out!

Information Linda K. would like to know about your pet
It’s most important for me to know what makes your cat feel safe and happy. It can be stressful for a furry friend when their person is away, so anything I can do to lessen that is super important!
A typical day
On a typical day I spend a good amount of time with my cats. I like to give them pets and attention in the morning and before bed especially, and I often let them on the patio for playtime in the sun.

Availability
I work from home 3-4 days a week and so am pretty flexible with my schedule and able to pop in for drop-in visits around or on my lunch break. And, of course, if we make a plan for weekend boarding or house sitting your pet will be my priority over other engagements!
