“Andrea did a great job looking after our kitties. She is creative to find solutions when my cat doesn’t take his medication easily. Having Andrea gave me peace of mind to travel and I’m grateful!”
“Katelyn went above and beyond, checking in with us and sending us pics of our cats. She was respectful of my house and even grabbed a few packages that arrived while we were gone. Visited with no problems and was always very communicative and willing to help. Will definitely not hesitate to use her services again in the future.”
“Melissa is great with our cat Ella. We have used her several times ! We never have to worry when we go out of town because we know our cat is in good hands with Melissa.”
“Very thoughtful and considerate, going above and beyond to make sure that not only are the two kitties getting the love and attention they deserve but also that we aren’t coming home to any surprises. The animals love her and that’s the best review!”
“Deanna is awesome! She watched our cat last week for the second time. She sends very detailed updates and pictures with each visit. So great to have such a reliable person to watch our fur baby when we go out of town.”
“Our cat Sebastian loved Esther! She did a great job caring for him during drop in visits and sending photos every day. We were so pleased, we've already booked her to housesit during another trip. Would highly recommend! It's great to have a trustworthy petsitter :)”
“Alyssa was wonderful! Our beloved senior kitty had recently been diagnosed with diabetes and needed twice-daily shots, and we were so concerned about finding someone who could administer them—especially since it’s not his favorite thing. Alyssa was cheerful, flexible, effective, and most importantly to us, very obviously an animal lover. We will definitely be using her services again!”
“This is my second booking with Hannah and can’t recommend her services enough. Hannah is great at communication and assessing the needs of your pet throughout her visits. My older cat just went through a medical scare and is on the mend, Hannah came through with extra care, consideration, and ideas to help improve her health. Book her now, you won’t be disappointed!”
“Rosemary was great! On time and professional, she was great with our cats and fed, played, and cleaned up after them during her visits. She communicated everything with us, and best of all, our cats loved her.”
“Katie is the best! She’s always excellent at communicating and being thorough, and I know my cats are always in the best care when she’s their sitter. Cannot recommend enough!”
About: Grew up caring for rescue dogs with my family. Currently have a rescue that I've had for 2 years as well as help care for 2 puppies. I currently work full-time, early morning to early afternoon. So I would be able to check in on pets or give some play/walk time in the afternoons/early evenings as well as all weekend In my own home my pets go on walks to relieve themselves due to living in an apartment. I have cared for other pets who need walks and have fenced in backyards.
“Rockstar Rover!! Frank is the only one I trust with my medically needy almost-senior cat. Opal took his meds easier from him than he does from me (his mom!) and he purred more for Frank than he has for me in a while. 10/10!!”
About: What sets me apart is my experience as a veterinary assistant, which gives me a deep understanding of animal behavior, health, and emergency care. I’m confident caring for pets of all ages—from energetic puppies who need training and structure to senior pets requiring gentle handling, medication, or special attention. I prioritize safety, consistency, and love, treating every pet like family. Whether it’s playing with them or just providing a calm, reassuring presence, I’m here to give your pet the best care possible! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—I genuinely love spending time with animals, and I’ve built my schedule to make them a priority. As a veterinary assistant, caring for pets is already a big part of my life, and I extend that same dedication to my pet sitting clients. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening feedings, I plan my day around each pet’s needs to ensure they get consistent, loving attention. I’m usually available weekdays in the afternoon and Friday’s and weekends I’m free pretty much all day to care for your fur babies! When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special needs. I make sure they feel safe and comfortable by giving them plenty of attention, affection, and patience. I will also keep your home tidy, respect your space, and provide regular updates with photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away! My goal is to make your pet feel like you’re never gone! :)
About: I am kind and patient will all animals, don't mind pooper scooping, and love a good game of fetch. Experience giving medication and extra patient with senior pets. Available morning, afternoon, and most evenings. Anytime of the weekend works! Typically do not travel for major holidays. I have Reliable transportation and flexible schedule. I always approach a pet with caution, patience and kindness. I understand I am on their turf and wait for them to acknowledge and accept my care.

Mount Vernon cat parents share their Rover experiences
Stacey is a great sitter. She asked excellent questions to ensure a common understanding of expectations. She was very communicative as events occurred during the visit. They stayed with my cat for the full time frame even when he stayed aloof. Highly recommend.
Janette is detail oriented and trustworthy. She shows great responsibility taking care of my cat! My cat also seems very happy and comfortable around her. :) Great communication and responsive sitter!! If we ever need someone to help again we will definitely contact Janette again.
Rebecca did an exceptional job taking care of our cats and fish too! She spent substantial time at each drop in visit - making sure she didn’t just feed our cats but also gave them play time and snuggles. I received thorough and thoughtful updates from Rebecca and photos each day too! Our house was left in excellent condition as well! Would absolutely use Rebecca any time we need a pet sitter!
