Pet care experience

Chicago Cat Sitter | Trusted Care

I have experience with a wide range of in-home cat care, including shy cats, senior cats, medication routines, and both multi-day and last-minute visits. I can administer oral medications (capsules, liquid), ear medications, and insulin. I am communicative, detail-oriented, and someone who goes above and beyond. I am lucky to have been trusted with cats who need extra patience, calm handling, and consistency, and I always adjust my care to each cat’s personality and comfort level. Senior cats are a specialty of mine, and I've always felt a strong connection with them. I focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and supported in their daily routines. Currently, I am fostering a 12-year-old orange boy named Cortez. :-)

Violet did an amazing job with my kitty! She provided lots of details + pictures of my sweet girl. I was superrr anxious after my first rover experience but felt so much better after our meet + greet. Would 100% book her again!

Violet is our go-to cat sitter. This visit was just a drop in and it was so nice to have her visit and feed the cats since I was out of the house all day. We feel lucky to have her!

Violet as always was lovely! She gives very detailed reports and Daisy loves seeing her. We ended up getting home earlier than expected and met Violet during her drop in. She’s super nice!

Violet was very attentive and responsive! She won over some trust from my shy cat in just two visits which is saying something as well. I’d love to work with her again in the future.

Schedule

Alongside cat sitting, I work part-time at a small independent movie theater. My shifts are usually around 11am-7pm a few days per week. I carefully schedule cat care alongside this to ensure I have enough time to care for your cats when they need me.

Cats
Violet can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
It’s helpful for me to know your cat’s feeding schedule and food types, temperament, special needs, and medication details if necessary. I also appreciate learning about their preferred toys, daily routines, and any little quirks or unique habits they have, so I can make sure they feel cared for in a familiar way. I always want to understand each pet as an individual so I can follow your instructions closely and provide care that feels consistent, gentle, and tailored to their needs.
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.
