Vet Assistant: Pet Sitter You Trust

Hi, I’m Patti! Vet assistant, chaos-calmer, and your pet’s favorite auntie. I bring professional-level care with a personal touch, including photo updates, belly rubs, and real attention to your pet’s needs. 🎆 Holiday Booking 🎆 : My rate doubles during holidays. Rover adjusts the base, but I’ll manually update the additional pet fee (example: 2 dogs = $80 + $48/night vs base rate: 2 dogs = $40 + $24/night). Just a heads-up before booking! I’ve cared for anxious rescues, goofy puppies, seniors with meds, you name it! Whether your pet needs structure, snuggles, or just someone who gets it, I’ve got them covered. Some clients invite my dog Lucy to join house sits (she’s sweet, respectful, and dog-friendly). I always check first, if your pet prefers solo time, she stays home. I’m comfortable with meds, routines, crate training, and quirks. Basically, I meet your pets where they’re at and help them feel safe while you’re away. Let’s make your time away as stress-free as possible—for, both you and your pets.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I treat your home and pets like I’d want someone to treat mine. I follow your instructions, keep routines consistent, and always double-check doors, gates, and meds. I don’t bring anyone else into your space, and I always make sure your pets feel safe, respected, and cared for while you’re gone. You’ll get updates so you’re never wondering how things are going.

Ms. Patti is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. Since our first booking with her we just love her so much and most importantly so do our giant fur babies. They always perk up when I tell them that Ms. Patti will be coming to care for them. They just know! We can rest easy while we are out of town and she stays in our home with them or just gone for a long day and she does a mid day drop in. She has been able to help us out in a pinch more than once. Communication before, during, and after a booking is always prompt and wonderful. We love getting photo updates that she sends as well and, on a few occasions, she has even left some special treats. There has only been one booking that she had to cancel due to a medical emergency. We truly missed her and were sure to check in with her as she recovered. This is how wonderful and trusted, loved and appreciated she is to us and our pups!

She did a great job. My dog loved her and Sia (the cat) actually made an appearance for her. She was on time and sent great pictures. I would use her again.

Schedule

I’m currently enrolled in a vet assistant program, which means my schedule is wide open for pet care. I offer drop-in visits and house sitting (no boarding), and when I’m booked, your pets get my full attention. I’m not juggling multiple jobs, I’m present, patient, and all in.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Patricia can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
The more I know, the better I can love on your pet the way you would. If they’ve got medical needs, quirks, routines, or things they’re not a fan of, tell me! I don’t judge. Nervous around new people? Hate getting their paws wet? Need meds wrapped in cheese? I’m here for it. Just give me the heads-up so I can show up prepared and keep things smooth for everyone.
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.
