Safety, trust & environment

I am happy to provide drop-in visits and housesitting for cats and small dogs, and have a strong track record of befriending all the shy, feisty, and loving cats I’ve cared for in the past! My goal is always to create a calm, safe environment where your pet can warm up to me at their own pace, and remain comfortable and happy during what may be a stressful time for them.

Information Nilanjana D. would like to know about your pet

Pet personalities and care needs can vary so much! Let me know how I can keep your pet healthy and comfortable by providing specific instructions on feeding, preferred activity level, and any health conditions to keep an eye on.

A typical day

Enjoy the fall weather and look for critters together on a walk around the neighborhood, and play with their favorite toys at home! With cats, I will give them as much space and time as they need to warm up to me and then provide all the cuddles and head scratches they will let me!

Nilanjana was fantastic! Our original pet sitting plans fell through, and we’re so grateful she was able to fill in last minute. She sent lots of pictures too :) Highly recommend!

Nilanjana did a great job looking after our two cats. She was reliable, sent us updates, and the cats were happy and well cared for when we got home. This was our first time using Rover and would definitely book again.

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.
