“Marta took great care of my kitty while I was out of town! She gave him lotssss of love and cuddles and made sure he had lots of attention. She made sure he had fresh food and water of course, as well as some brushing and cat nip. Would definitely recommend Marta!”



“Leaving my animals for any length of time has always been stressful. As they've gotten older they now require medication which changes the level of worry 10 fold. Elizabeth took excellent care of my cats. Delivered medication correctly, and gave them lots of love. Honestly, it's all I could ever ask for.”


“This is the second time we asked Alyssa to care for our cat Winston, and she rocked it again! She and her sister did an amazing job and gave detailed updates each visit. We love knowing that our Winston is cared for by such a responsible and caring team! Thank you!!!”


“Kathleen was such a great help! She made sure our cat got her medications and some extra love and attention. Kathleen went above and beyond, cleaning the cat litter and her food dishes. The extra care and attention is so appreciated; I wholeheartedly recommend Kathleen!”


“I can’t recommend Stephanie highly enough! She took such wonderful care of our cat while we were away. She was attentive, reliable and genuinely caring. Our usually shy cat really bonded with her and he got a lot of pets and one on one playtime, which was great. The updates and photos after each visit gave us total peace of mind. Truly a fantastic sitter!”


About: I’ve been surrounded by pets my entire life and have spent the last 7 years providing care for dogs and cats through referrals from friends, family, and neighbors. What sets me apart is the personal attention I give each pet. I treat them like part of my own family. I take the time to understand their routines, personalities, and unique needs to ensure they feel safe, loved, and at ease while you’re away. Whether it’s a playful pup, a shy cat, or a senior pet needing a little extra attention. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are always my top priorities. My remote job allows me the flexibility to build my schedule around the needs of the pets I care for, whether that means early morning walks, midday playtime, or evening check-ins. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, I always strive to create a calm, comfortable, and safe environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions, this way they feel secure and cared for even when their humans are away.

“Molly was great with my cat who she boarded for close to two weeks. She sent me regular updates and videos of him. It was also an added bonus that she had her own cats which was delightful company for him.”


“Cheryl was great with our little Nylah and fed our fish. She came everyday to feed her, give her treats and got along so well with her. We loved receiving the picture updates as well. Would recommend Cheryl to anyone she is amazing!!!”

“Yhakerra was so attentive and extremely caring towards both my fur babies. It was not easy either because both my kitties are in separate spaces of the house due to one of them chasing the other and hissing/growling. However, Yhakerra did amazing and handled the separate feedings/litter cleanings like a pro. She also left the house very clean and immaculate. She was even so caring that she asked if she could carry the youngest baby, Luna to the bedroom and let her sleep in the bed, which of course I was so touched that she was so sweet to accommodate the well being of the babies. She had to move her litterbox and food bowls. I highly recommend Yhakerra and will be booking her again in the future. Thank you so much Yhakerra, I’m so thankful to have had you care for my babies.”

Over 105 pet parents in New City have booked cat sitting
New City cat parents share their Rover experiences
Christy is extremely nice and professional. She dropped in every day for a week to take care of my kitties while I was on vacation. She cleaned their litter, fed them, and played with them every day. She took nice pictures of them and allowed me to enjoy my vacay without any worries. She even took care of my guitars everyday by emptying the dehumidifier. My cats were also not afraid of her at all when they first met her. 10/10 would recommend.

Cheryl was taking care of our cat Chimney for a week and we are thankful to find a happy kitty upon our return. Our furry friend was well fed and loved and the feeding area was clean and perfectly maintained. Cheryl responds in seconds, maintains great communication and really cares about wellbeing of the whole family!!! Thank you, Cheryl!

This is the second time Stephanie has taken care of our cat. She is wonderful - trustworthy, caring and responsible. Our shy cat really responds to her and while we’re away, we’re so happy that he’s in such good hands. She really understands and knows how to relate to cats!
