I feel so comfortable leaving my cats with Laura! She has been great and my shy cats warmed up to her quickly. She gives comprehensive updates on how your pets are doing and the status of their food, litter and water. I use her every time I go out of town.

Skylar communicated well and was timely. Moose has a history of urinary issues, and Skylar was very thorough in checking his drinking/eating/bathroom habits to ensure there were no issues.

Maryann understands cat behavior, and was patient with my shy boy. Even though he hid most of the time, she took the time to see if he'd trust her, and kept me updated on his eating and drinking so I'd know he was ok. I look forward to booking Maryann again when I need a cat carer.

Tez is amazing!! She’s our go-to pet sitter for our two cats whenever we go on a trip. She’s really considerate and goes above and beyond to make sure they have everything they need. Our cats are super shy because they were adopted during COVID but they’ve actually started coming out when Tez visits because she’s such a kind and caring person. We love working with her!!

Nicolle was a wonderful sitter to my cat while I was out on a holiday. She took great care of her while also making sure my home was in a good state for my cat. She is very caring and so loving towards my cat. She played with her, brushed her, petted her. She also made sure all the details were taken care of. Will recommend her and take her services once again :)

Kelly is the absolute best. This was our first time on Rover, and her communications were clear and quick, and she did great work reassuring us that our pup was in good hands. Loved the photographs, and really appreciated the time she took to communicate with us by phone and by text. We’re only slightly concerned that our pup now likes her more than us! 😀 Hugely impressed with Kelly - she’ll take fab care of your pups.

About: I am a highly experienced dog & cat owner with a great love for all animals. We walk, we run, we play! As you can see from my gallery, most of my clients are repeat clients who some I even have worked with for over a couple of years. I keep a good relationship with every pet parent. My gentle nature will win your pet over. GUARANTEED! I am confident I can provide an excellent experience, going above and beyond to keep your pet comfortable & happy. When boarding with me, rest assured your pet will get all the space, sun, and walks needed. I reside in a luxury complex with a private dog park in Lyndhurst/Rutherford. If you have a senior pet, this is the place for them. I have no children and always have calm energy at home. I am currently at home full time, I lead an active lifestyle and love fitting my pet care in it! Daily routines include walks or jogs in park, relaxing on the couch with pets, and playing with them! (They are welcomed on my bed and on couches!) I am very loving and gentle towards all the animals I care for. They are spoiled rotten by me! I make sure they’re always in a clean and calm environment. I avoid guests, and let them do things they enjoy to do. They have a fresh water fountain, food, and even a basket of toys! This is also a non smoking home, so the air is fresh as well. No children.

Nicolle was so great, we had to find a sitter last minute as our original plan for care was no longer viable and she was so responsive and immediately got along with our cats, including our shy little girl! The pictures she sent were consistently amazing, and both cats were happy and well taken care of when we got home after being gone for a week :) They forgave us for leaving them almost immediately, and Nicolle being so attentive and playing with them definitely helped them not feel abandoned. We’ll absolutely be reaching out to Nicolle again the next time we go out of town!

Paula is a Rockstar!!! A snow storm was occurring. I told Paula to be safe and skip the visit if unsafe. She came out in a storm, my complex wasn't cleared and made it to my Bebe. When she messaged they were playing. My heart is filled with joy. This is her 3rd time caring for my cat and she gas given exceptional care. The BEST!!!

We’ve had several different cat sitters over the years as we moved through different neighborhoods, and Rivera is by far the best we’ve ever had and my cat’s absolute favorite. My cat, who is usually shy with new people, warmed up to her right away. Rivera sends thoughtful updates and photos, which gives me peace of mind when I am away. If you are looking for someone who loves animals and is reliable, she’s the one.

Delaney was amazing! She was so friendly, reliable, and clearly cares about animals. She kept me updated with photos and my cats warmed up to her so quickly. She even went the extra mile to clean their food mat and offered to take out our trash so the house wouldn’t smell when we got home. I came back to happy, relaxed pets and everything spotless. 10/10 would recommend — she’s the best!

Mauri truly saved the day at the very last minute! I couldn’t see my puppy through the camera and was extremely worried — I even feared something had happened to him. I booked with Mauri just minutes in advance, and she responded so quickly and kindly. She gave me peace of mind right away. 100% recommended — I’d definitely book with her again! 🫶🏻
