I own my home on the west side of Cleveland, where I live with my fiancé Anthony. He occasionally helps me with my furry clients! I work full time as an attorney, mostly from home. What sets me apart from other sitters is my communication and decision making skills, trustworthiness, as well as experience caring for special medical needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a spare bedroom turned cat guest room. I have several cat beds, toys, a small cat tree, and several scratchers to keep your cat busy. There is also a bird feeder and automatic laser toy. They will have the room to themselves and I disinfect in between guests. I have experience caring for special medical needs and can administer medications with no extra charge. Cancer, hyperthyroid, kidney disease, dementia, and wound care just to name a few conditions I’m familiar with caring for. I started doing rover as a result of my own struggles finding a trustworthy pet sitter to care for my special needs animals. I’m also open to respite care if you just need a break. When I do drop ins, I will leave everything just the way I found it. I also do light cleaning or laundry when needed.

Information Maureen D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know where they go to the vet, any allergies, relevant behavioral and health history, an emergency contact, and of course let me know all of their favorite things!

A typical day

It’s stressful for pets to be away from their families, so I always make sure to slowly integrate them into their new routine. I let them dictate when they’re ready to receive attention or play.

Pet care experience

Offering cat and small animal boarding in my home, as well as drop in visits at your home for pets of any kind! I have over 20 years of experience caring for animals, and I volunteer weekly with a local rescue. I have fostered dozens of cats and have experience caring for a vast majority of medical needs. I've seen it all while fostering! I can administer any medication and make the environment comfortable for your baby, and always take proper precautions to keep them safe. I also have experience with reptiles, fish, small animals, and farm animals. I love them all!

Maureen is awesome. She is great at communication, provides thoughtful details, and sent the cutest photos of my cat Stella. She gave her all the attention and took excellent care of her. I was able to relax on my trip knowing she was well taken care of and that was very much needed!! Highly recommend Maureen, she is a professional and will take wonderful care of your fur babies!

Maureen will always be our go-to sitter. Our cats always come back so happy and comfortable. She’s flexible and accommodating. She sends us updates and we can see how happy the cats are with her.

Maureen was communicative and gave our Lumi the attention she needed while we were away. I'm very grateful for the updates and check ins. Very happy and I feel at ease leaving Lumi under her care
