About: I’ve been caring for pets for most of my life. Growing up, my family had a mixed-breed dog who lived to 14 years old, and I was involved in her daily care including walks, bathing, feeding, and companionship. As an adult, I’ve fostered medium-sized dogs under one year old, which helped me gain experience with young dogs, basic training routines, and positive reinforcement. I’m also an experienced cat owner and currently care for two rescue cats. I’ve provided both in-home care and drop-in visits for cats and understand how to tailor care to each pet’s personality and comfort level. I truly enjoy building trust with animals and treating them as individuals, not just following a checklist. I work during the weekdays, but I’m consistently available for pet care in the evenings after 7:00 PM. On weekends, I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate drop-in visits, extended care, and multiple visits per day if needed. I’m reliable with scheduling and always communicate clearly about availability. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, clean, and structured environment. I live in a three-story house with a fully fenced yard, and I have a separate room available to safely isolate visiting pets from my own cats when needed. I closely follow each pet’s routine and any instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, medications, and special care needs. I never leave pets unsupervised in unfamiliar situations and always prioritize secure doors, leashes, and safe spaces. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with respect and make sure pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I provide regular updates with photos and notes so owners can feel confident and at ease while they’re away.

Brianna took very good care of our cats while we were away and they seemed quite affectionate with her. She was very consistent and followed all our instructions. She made sure our older cat ate and our younger cat got lots of play time. She allowed us to enjoy our time away knowing our babies were well cared for.

About: Dogs make my heart happy, and so do cats! :) I loved the times that I got to spend and care for my beloved Moki who went to heaven in Dec. 2023. I miss her every single day. I work as a substitute teacher and painting instructor, which provides me with a flexible schedule to pursue my hobbies and interests. One of my passions in life is dogs. I volunteer with Pets in Need by participating in their Doggy Day Out program. Back in high school, I was voted Most Dependable, and I believe I still hold that title dear to heart whether it's with family, work, friends, and clients. I would do my best to make sure your furry best friend gets lots of pets, play, and potty breaks. :) My schedule is pretty flexible since I work as a substitute teacher and painting instructor. I can easily block off dates so that I can be available. I know what it's like to have someone reliable and trustworthy to care for your furry best friend. I know that you can depend on me because I will love and care for your pet as if she/he's my own.

Katherine took excellent care of my cats for approximately three weeks through drop-in visits. She is incredibly supportive, accommodating, and helpful. Her dedication to the pets is evident in her willingness to go above and beyond to resolve my litter robot sensor issues. Her exceptional skills are evident in her ability to perfectly fit the trash bags into the litter robot can. I highly recommend her services!

I had a last min trip and Veronica was able to come by and check on our golden boy. Although none of us have met in person yet but Veronica made everything easy and was sending us very great details about our 🐕. Our dog can have bad behavior but Veronica was able to work with him. Will definitely repeat in the future !

Jen has watched our cats a couple of times now, and we trust her completely. Even for quick drop-in visits, she’s reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. Each of our cats has a different personality, and Jen is attentive to all of them making sure everyone is fed, safe, and getting individual attention. We came home to relaxed, well cared for cats and a clean space, which says everything. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!

Kiddie pool provided in the summer for dogs who loves water and wants to cool down. Dogs will have play time with my dog indoor/outdoor that's closely supervised.

About: I have genuine love for animals, I’ve been surrounded by animals big and small, from a horse to a tiny dwarf bunny. I’ve taken care of newborn puppies and kitties, as well as a newborn foal (horse). I’m currently in school for my master’s program and live at home. I have an outdoor kitty I take care of and occasionally dog-sit for my friend when she’s traveling. I have time to cater to new pets and have a couple days off throughout the week with extra time on my hands! I took in my neighborhood stray cat, she was only 4 weeks old and ended up in my garden. She prefers the outdoors but will come inside when she feels. I have her bed, scratch post, and feeding bowl on the porch and she sleeps there daily. For my friends I take their dogs on a walk for exercise and keep them entertained inside the home with toys.

Myat was very helpful and got both of my super shy cats out and playing. Each visit I got tons of informative photos documenting that the cats were fed, water refilled, litter cleaned, etc. Myat remembered to check each item I had mentioned even if I hadn’t written it in the Rover description. It was very easy to give and collect the keys. I would definitely recommend Myat to look after cats and probably all other types of animals.

About: Cats are lovely and each have their own character, although they can be distant at first they end up allowing me to obey their commands. I work from home, so your pup will never be alone. They will enjoy daily walks around the lake in our friendly neighborhood. Always feed only what’s on their normal diet. I follow instructions to what is recommended for each pet, as I know many may have different needs. No extra treats or foods since some pets have allergies.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I’ve always been the go-to sitter for all my friends and family. I’m also the type of person who plans my vacations around where I can make sure my dog gets to go on adventure with me. Rest assured, I’ll treat your fur baby like my own and also love sending photos of your baby so you can always look forward to that! In my own home, I have Haru who’s an 5 year old rough collie and Nori who’s an 8 year old dachshund mix. You can guess which one has more of a hyperactive personality and which one is lazy. I’ve had pets in the past with all different sorts of temperaments as well so I’m confident your fur baby and I will get along! I work as a freelancer in the film and tv industry as an art director! I update my availability as often as I can. I hope to give your pup all the love and attention they deserve while you’re away or at work that my puppies definitely take for granted, hehe. I think pet care definitely varies for each different dog so depending on whatever your needs are, I’m open to negotiating prices if your dog is super low maintenance or needs shorter drop in times, and also if you’d like to add some extra care you’d need for your pup or if you’d prefer me to take them out on a drive to the a park!

Jiaji was a fantastic sitter for our two kittens (5-6 months old)! She is very communicative and thorough in her visits and care notes. She went above and beyond to give added care when the kittens needed a bit more attention and some medication application. She also took very good care of our home. Highly recommend!

Elena was a great help for me while I went on vacation for a week. Elena was communicative and responsive and did everything that was asked. I had small requests that she did with no problem. She definitely has lots of experience with looking after cats. She left the litter box area, and food area neat and tidy. She was also very flexible with dropping off the keys as our flights were not certain to arrive on time. I would recommend her for anybody looking for an experienced cat sitter.

Tori was amazing and would not hesitate to rebook. She came in to check in on my dog while I was at work and felt at ease knowing he was in good hands. Although the check in was short, Tori gave me great updates. My dog, Simba, is a nervous one, and usually doesn’t eat when new sitters come in. This was the first time I’ve had a sitter over since my other dog passed (who Simba was very bonded to) and was surprised he even ate a little.

This is the second time we’ve used Raeyna but the first time we’ve left our cats for more than a couple days. I am admittedly a crazy cat mom and was a bit nervous. Raeyna did a great job responding to my texts promptly and sent me pictures of both cats which helped put me at ease. This was greatly appreciated since one of my cats is fearful of strangers. Raeyna eventually earned her trust and even played with her! Everything was in order when we returned and our kitties came to greet us immediately. Thank you for taking good care of our kitties and putting up with an anxious cat mom!
