Pet care experience

The Paw Sitter — Safe Loving Care

Hi. I have over 25 years of trusted pet care experience and am known as “The Paw Sitter.” My specialty is in-home overnight care where pets remain in their familiar environment and maintain their daily routines. I support pets across all life stages — from playful, energetic companions who love engagement and activity, to senior or special-needs pets requiring gentle handling, medication support, and thoughtful caution. I have experience with special diets, administering medications, and providing emotional comfort by sleeping near or with pets as they are accustomed to with their pet parent. My approach balances safety, attentiveness, play, and affection so pets feel secure and cared for while families feel confident and at ease while away. I’m happy to travel further distances depending on the booking.

Safety, trust & environment

Hi. I care for pets where they feel safest, loved, and undisturbed by changes to their routine. I follow established schedules, maintain feeding, litter, and pee-pad areas, administer medications when needed, and offer play or cuddles based on each pet’s unique personality, including multi-pet households. I enjoy being a Paw Sitter, sharing gentle presence with your pet in their familiar home.

House Sitting • Jun 17, 2026

Rochelle was a perfect fit for Owen. She quickly learned his routine, quirks, and needs to keep him happy while we were gone. She also took great care of the house, and doing a few chores. We got amazing communication on Owen! We were able to thoroughly enjoy ourselves knowing Owen was so well cared for. We most definitely will reach out to Rochelle through Rover in the future!

House Sitting • Jun 11, 2026

Rochelle watched our senior cat, Callie, at our home while we were on vacation. She was extremely reliable and trustworthy—sending us daily pictures, videos, and updates. It was easy to tell how much she loves animals and our cat absolutely loved her. She even left us the sweetest letter upon our return summarizing their at-home adventures from week. A great person and a wonderful pet companion. We highly recommend her and will absolutely ask her to sit for us for future trips.

House Sitting • Jun 01, 2026

This was our first time with Rover, and I could not have asked for a better sitter for our dogs and house. Rochelle made a real and true bond with our two dogs. She made a personal connection with our pups. I want to emphasize that she really cared. Rochelle sent us daily pictures and videos that brought so many smiles to our faces while we were away. Her care took away our separation anxieties. This allowed to relax and enjoy our trip rather worry about how things were at home. If I could give Rochelle more than 5 stars, I would do that.

Rochelle has been wonderful! She was very responsive from the initial contact. She shares great details of her visits and many photos. Our dog, Abby, clearly is a big fan of hers! I highly recommend Rochelle.

We had a walkaround the house with Rochelle. Rochelle was attentive and took lots of pictures. You can tell that she takes the care of our pups and the house very seriously. After learning the house, Rochelle observed the correct food portions and fed the pups. She is so loving to the pups.

Schedule

Hi, Pet care fits naturally into my life, allowing flexible availability for overnight and extended in-home sitting. I adapt to each pet’s routine with walks, yard play, park visits when appropriate, and always begin with a meet-and-greet so everyone feels comfortable.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Rochelle can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Please let me know about your pet’s affection level, routines, personality, energy level, medications, special diets, fears, sensitivities, or anything that helps them feel safe and comfortable. I’m especially experienced with senior and special-needs pets and appreciate understanding leash behavior, separation anxiety, reactivity, or multi-pet dynamics ahead of time so I can provide the best possible care.
