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. Clients often describe me as 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 feel a strong connection with them. I focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and supported in their daily routines.

Safety, trust & environment

I take safety, trust, and respect for your home seriously. I follow instructions closely and make sure I fully understand your pet’s routine before each visit. You can expect clear communication and photo updates after every visit so you always know how things are going. My goal is simple: consistent care, strong communication, and peace of mind while you’re away.

Violet was amazing! I needed a last minute sitter and she was able to meet up and care for my cat. She did such an excellent job making sure my cat was played with and cared for. I also loved all the photos she took showing my cat was having fun.

Violet is the best! She was so communicative and caring with my two cats while she took care of them while I was gone for four days. From the moment she met us at the meet and greet, it was clear Violet is a true animal lover, which made me feel entirely at ease the whole time I was gone. Plus, she sent tons of pictures, played with the cats, and kept them happy and engaged the whole time. I’ve already booked Violet for another time when I’ll be away - so glad to have found her!

Violet is such a nice, caring and gentle sitter for our old kitty. She sends the best pics and check in notes. I 100% recommend her, especially if you have older pets or pets with medical needs.

We had a great experience with Violet! We came back to a happy kitty. She sent us the best check in photos and always reached out if she had any questions. Daisy is an elderly cat and Violet was great with her.

We had Violet drop in on our kitty on very short notice for multiple days (2x a day). She did an AMAZING job! Our cat is a bit shy, but seemed very comfortable around Violet, which really put us at ease. She even administered ear drops, which our cat was not yet used to (and does not enjoy). With every visit we got multiple notes & pictures. She really went above and beyond 😊

Violet took great care of my cat! I’m so grateful to have been able to book her on a few days notice. She was super friendly and communicative and I would absolutely book her again.

Schedule

I was recently laid off and am searching for my next job, so I have ample free time to fit pet care into my daily routine.

Cats
Violet can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
It’s helpful for me to know the number of pets, their age, and temperament, along with their feeding schedule and methods, food type, and any medical needs or allergies. 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 comfortable, understood, and 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.
