Available Cat Sitter!
Pet care experience
Hi there! As you can probably tell, I am interested in watching cats. I grew up with multiple cats. Unfortunately, my cat lives in California with my parents, but when I’m home I make sure to play with her and give extra cuddles (only when she wants them, of course)! She’s a tad on the older side, so when I go home, I help give out her medicine and assist with general cat maintenance from feeding (measuring food and providing ample supply of water) and cleaning the litterbox. I’ve been an active Rover sitter for two years now, but have about four years per watching experience. My experience has ranged from staying at peoples houses to doing dropins and I have extensive experience administering medicine. I do work a regular 9 – 5 but other than that am fully available to hang out with your pet! I love playing with cats – from throwing a ball around for them to chase or using a fishing pole. One cat I watched loved watching cat YouTube videos and seeing the string flash across the screen! Since being on Rover I’ve loved sending updates of the pets I’m watching to their parents. I think communication is important and I make sure to send daily updates of the status of the pet to their owners. I always think “if this was my pet what kind of updates would I want” and go from there. From cute pictures to updates on the animals food/water intake, you can be sure your pet is in good hands!

Stephanie was very helpful with a last minute booking and helped me deal with some problematic kitty behavior from afar. Highly recommend her.

Safety, trust & environment
As I primarily check on cats, I make sure to ask the owner of any hiding spots their cat may go to. That way I know where to look for them! I am very careful when I enter and leave apartments/houses since sometimes cats like to try and run outside.
Information Stephanie B. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet had any special needs! I work with all kinds of cats from the ones that take a while to come out of their shell to the super cuddly ones. It’s always good to know how your pet reacts to new people.
A typical day
With cats, I make sure they play with their favorite toy. Whether that’s a fishing pole, laser pointer, or fake mice, I’m ready to entertain them! I also love to give treats (when parents say it’s okay) and all the snuggles. I also know some cats need their space and will patiently wait for the cat to come to me when they’re ready. For dogs, I love going on long walks and giving them plenty of play time. I will be sure to entertain them and make sure they get all the pets they want!
