I do work a part-time job, but my hours are flexible so I will always do my best to fit your schedule! With this being said, i do normally ask for a time frame rather than specific time for visits (i.e. 12-1 or 12-2 rather than 12 exactly).

A typical day

i let the pets set the mood for our visits! needs vary widely so i look to them for what they want to do. i’m happy to keep them playing the whole time if that’s what they’re into! for those who aren’t as active, i like to sit and read to them as a way of reminding them i’m there with them. and of course- lots of cuddles for anyone who wants them!

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Veronica! i’m a bit of a crazy cat lady. i have four of my own and jump at the chance to hang out with any and all cats! I am currently primarily a cat sitter as i’m only available for drop in visits, but i am just as happy to do drop ins for pups since i don’t have one of my own at home anymore! i currently work a part time job which gives me quite a bit of flexibility when it comes to drop in visits. Guaranteed with any drop in is a detailed report of our activities as well as plenty of pictures! I would love to hang out with your pets and make some new fluffy friends! Some background on my pet care experience: I had two dogs growing up and am now a cat mom to four! I have done house sitting, dog walks, and drop in visits for going on 8 years now and have been working through rover for close to 5 years. During that time I have worked with dogs and cats of all sizes and needs! I am familiar with giving medications as well as pets with some special needs. i am constantly educating myself to provide the best service possible. I hope my reviews will speak for themselves! I have many long term clients and love building relationships with both pets and owners. If you have any additional questions, don’t hesitate to ask!

Once again Veronica is fantastic!! We are so thankful that she is able to care for our Sophie. It’s great to be able to read Veronica’s detailed cards and know our girl is safe and happy. Thanks Veronica!

Veronica did a great job taking care of our two cats. Communication was excellent. She provided an update and many pictures with each visit. We highly recommend her. Our cats immediately felt comfortable and trusted her.

Veronica was an absolutely wonderful cat sitter, and I can’t recommend her enough! She took such great care of my cat while I was away, making sure everything was clean, comfortable, and stress-free. It was clear she genuinely cares about animals—she spent quality time giving attention and affection, not just stopping in to feed and leave. I really appreciated her communication as well. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my cat was happy and in good hands. When I came home, everything was exactly as it should be, and my cat was relaxed and well cared for. If you’re looking for someone reliable, trustworthy, and truly compassionate with animals, Veronica is the one. I will definitely be using 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.
