Pet care experience

When I was little, I helped my Mom run her pet sitting business. Not only did I grow up helping take care of others pets, I grew up around all different types of animals, including large dogs, birds, cats, fish, and more. I have pet sit for single visits as well as overnight week long stays. Pets are such a big part of my life and I can’t wait to meet yours!

Another outstanding weekend of service. Midas is very skittish and really takes his time approaching strangers with time being hours or days. And if he doesn’t see you for a while, he has to start over! But he just loves Sydney and goes right to her like he’s known her all his life. This was our second booking and he was quite friendly with her. She’s truly a cat whisperer. Gives great updates and sends plenty of pictures.

This was the second time we have used Sydney to care for our cat while we were gone. She is the best!! You can tell she truly cares about your pet and she leaves a detailed note about each visit. Thanks again, Sydney!!

Sydney is the BEST! Our handsome boy is very shy and generally takes a while to warm up to strangers and even repeat visitors. But Sydney must be a cat whisperer because he took to her right away. We had just moved and he was doing his adjusting by hiding a lot. Yet he came out to greet and play with Sydney. She did an outstanding job. Took some great pictures and wrote very thorough updates. Will definitely book her 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.
