“Our cats immediately took to Basil, who clearly adores animals and took fantastic care of our pets while we were out of town. They were communicative & also provided photos after every visit. Will happily rebook!”
About: I have experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your pet needs energetic playtime, a 10 mile run, relaxing companionship, or attentive care and routine, I’m happy to provide a safe and comfortable experience while you’re away. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to visit and play with your pets! I'm available at most times, 7 days a week. I care for pets by following their usual routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, and any special instructions. In my home, I provide a safe, supervised environment that is clean and has plenty of open space. In a client’s home, I make sure pets feel comfortable in their familiar surroundings while keeping their space clean and secure. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can see that your pet is happy and well cared for!
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for a wide variety of pets, including dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, hermit crabs, and more. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to feel confident and comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I’m responsible, detail-oriented, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs and routine. I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and your pets and provide them with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I work as a swim coach currently so I’m looking for supplemental work, but I am decently flexible and can make time multiple times throughout the day to care for your animals! I am very responsible and understand that your pet is like an extension of family. I have two cats of my own & they are like my children. I pride myself in creating a safe, loving, & playful environment for your pet!
About: I’ve always loved animals. I am very patient, trustworthy, and reliable. Caring for animals is something I love to do! I can’t wait to watch your pet!! I do have a full-time job from 8am-4:30pm, so any care that is needed will need to be in the afternoons after 5:00pm, due to having to get my daughter from daycare after work. I will walk your fur baby whenever it is needed, feed pets based on the schedule you provide, and make sure they have plenty of play time.
About: I have been a pet sitter for neighbors and friends for years and just a few years ago got my own dog! I love spending time with dogs and cats whether it be on walks, in a dog park or yard, or just snuggling on the couch. I would love to meet your pets! I am a counselor at a local school but am off for the summer and have more flexibility for daytime care! I am available for evenings and weekends yearround. I would prefer to go to the client’s home and have a dependable car to get to and from! I would also prefer drop in or walks.
About: I’ve always had several dogs in my household since I was a little girl that were all types of breeds and ages. Pets are definitely family to me. I have one dog and 2 cats. Peaches, Pepper, and Pumpernickel. I've also been a pet sitter to a few neighbors for 2 years. In summers I’ve also volunteered at SPCA as a dog walker. I'm excited to give love to as many furry friends as I can!
About: I'm an animal caregiver with 5+ years of experience with all types of animals including exotic pets. I also have Veterinary Assistant education! Im currently a Pharmacy Technician so i do have medication knowledge. I've raised and had many animals since the age of 10, I currently have cats, dogs, exotic animals and reptiles! I have experience with medication management reactive dogs, high anxiety management, senior care for cats, dogs and of course puppy care! I would love to have the opportunity to get to know you and your furry companion🐾. Pet care fits amazingly into my schedule, as I do have a full time job but i have plenty of time before, after and even during to care for your furry companion. I care for your pets the same way as mine, mine are spoiled rotten and get lots of attention and care. During my time in your home you can expect your pet to be loved, well fed and of course always safe. They'll get ample amount of time to use the potty outside, plenty of time for playtime and of course a resting period.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Norwood
Carolyn was absolutely fantastic. Not only did she take excellent care of our kitties during the original planned sit while we were on vacation, but agreed to extend the sit twice when our travel plans unexpectedly changed and we were stranded away from home for an additional 5 days. She was quick to respond to all of my anxious cat-mom questions about how my boys were doing, sent great pictures at every visit, and took care of our boys like they were her own. We were so incredibly grateful to have booked with her during this trip, and it meant the world to have one piece of our unexpected travel delays be taken care of.
I'm always nervous leaving my cat alone when I'm gone so I was very stressed about all the travel I had to do for the holidays. Chelsea was fantastic and it was clear after the first day that I had nothing to worry about. I would definitely book with her again and would recommend her to anyone!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
