Cat Sitting in New Athens

“This is my first time using Rover. For some reason I need to go back to CA for 2 weeks and I am very worried about my cat because she has never been alone for so long. I am very grateful to Amy for helping me take care of my cat even on Christmas! Amy is a very caring sitter,”

“Paige was amazing and I am so glad I booked with her. I had some flight complications due to weather and Paige was able to extend care and be flexible to check in on my little guy. I had daily photo updates and could see that he was very happy and cared for while I was away. Very appreciative of Paige and absolutely recommend her to others looking for reliable pet care.”

“Gabby is an absolute gem and a true animal lover—we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! From the very beginning, she was warm, communicative, and reliable—sending photos and updates with every visit and taking amazing care of our fur babies. Not even 48 hours into a 2-week sit, one of our cats went missing. Gabby immediately contacted us and asked all the right questions about his favorite hiding spots. After checking our cameras, we realized he had been accidentally and unknowingly let outside earlier that day by our house cleaners. Gabby didn’t hesitate—she spent hours searching around the house, brought her husband over to help, and kept us updated the entire time. Being across the country, we felt completely helpless—but Gabby gave us peace of mind. She went above and beyond, not only continuing to provide excellent care for our other cats, but doing everything in her power to help bring our little escape artist home. Every single request we made—no matter how many—was met with understanding and immediate action. She set up extra carriers, moved litter boxes and food/water outdoors, left the garage door cracked, and searched with treats in hand multiple times a day. After several stressful days, our cat finally returned—safely sheltering in the garage—and it was all thanks to Gabby’s unwavering dedication and care. We are so grateful for her and will absolutely be using her again in the future. If you’re lucky enough to have Gabby available—book her. You won’t regret it.”

About: I have been trained on dog and cat CPR, I have a flexible schedule and love dogs! I have owned and cared for dogs for with high engery, low energy, nervous energy and even aggressive energy. I am a disabled USAF veteran with a lot time on my hands that gives me a flexible schedule to be able to care for any pets needs.

One of my cats has high anxiety and shy. I have learned how to interact with her where she feels safe and will nap with me.

“Maddison did amazing with our doggies. The dogs were afraid at first, but she was able to earn the trust of our doggies by the end of the first visit. Our dogs opened up to her on her next visits. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing that Maddison was taking good care of our dogs. We are definitely booking her again on our next trip.”

“Juliana was on time and very thorough with her drop in visits and reports on how our puppy did. She included photos of our puppy, played with him enough to keep him sleeping in between visits and let him out for multiple potty breaks in between feedings. She made it very easy for us to be away at work from our new pup!”
