Cat Sitting in Oaklawn

“Natalie has been great with taking care of our two golden retrievers for drop in visits. She is always on time and communicates with us on any concerns she has. Phoebe and Winston enjoy having Natalie around!”

“What a great experience! Sarah did a wonderful job taking care of our bunny. She was reliable, and sent us photos and updates of her drop in. We'll definitely ask Sarah to watch Mochi again!”

About: Hi! I’m River. I was raised with dogs and cats (and birds and turtles and fish) as a child, and as an adult I have raised my own from puppyhood/kittenhood through their senior years. I am comfortable with puppy potty training, litter box training, cleaning messes, handling kitten/puppy energy, etc. I can do light grooming (brushing fur, cleaning with wipes, applying powders, etc) and give medications. (I can even do baths with the right set-up, and advanced notice.) I typically like to do a little light housekeeping anywhere I stay; I live by the motto of “leave it better than you found it.” I also have a wide range of experience and am comfortable caring for various other pets that might need tending while you’re out. In general I love all animals; when asked if I am “a dog person or a cat person,” I say, “yes.” I have done lots of pet-sitting for friends and family (including fostering for a year, to help a friend of a friend while she finished school) and I love meeting and getting to know new animal friends. I am finally joining Rover at the recommendation of many friends and family members who think caring for people’s pets is an excellent job for me. I’m new to Rover, but not new to pet care, and if you trust me with your pets’ care you will find they are in very good hands! I am happy to care for your pets in the way that works best for them: coming regularly to take them for walks, scoop litter boxes, and pick up puppy pads, etc., or staying with them in the comfort of their own home if they need more than drop-in attention. If in-home sitting is needed for extended periods, I may need to leave for a few hours at a time, but I can work around your pet’s needs for specific mealtimes, walk/potty times, etc. I love all pets as the individuals they are, and care for them as if they were my own. You can rely on me to follow detailed instructions, keep you updated, and make sure they are as happy and well-cared-for as can be while you are away.

“Allison was great! This was the second time she had taken care of my cats and she was very communicative and great with my fur babies. Would use her again!”

“Javier is a positive and gentle person to have around my old dog. He has been patient with him and has gone over and above with caring for him while I’m a way I appreciated the time he spent with me to help my dog be more comfortable with him. (My dog had a recent trauma.) I recommend him highly.”

“Maleny is awesome! My dog got in a great walk and she updated me at the end! Very easy to get ahold of and communicate with. Thank you, Maleny!”

About: I've worked with dogs, cats, chickens, horses, ducks, quail, ect. In the past and genuinely enjoying spending time with animals. I can provide safe, comfortable, and reliable pet care for you while you are away. I've done in home pet sitting, drop in care, and dog walking for family, friends, neighbors, and others in the community. I have experience with puppies, senior animals, dogs with behavioral issues, and intact animals. I currently work part time as a babysitter so my schedule is pretty open. I usually make my schedule in advance, but if I have availability I'm happy to do last minute care. I have two friendly dogs who would love to come along to house sitting jobs if you are comfortable. I have good knowledge and understanding of animal CPR and first aid.

“Schellene was reliable and has an understanding of cats, especially our shy kitty. She sent us photos and notes to keep us informed of our cat's progress. I highly recommend her and will be using her again!”

Athena O.

“Blair helped us out when we had a minor emergency while away. So grateful for her and her presence with the cats! Thanks so much!”

“Ashly took great care of our dogs in our home while we were gone. She was very responsive to messages, and we will certainly use her again in the future!”

Monica P.

“This is our second time booking Mickayla to care for our pup, Elsie while we were on a quick trip away from home. Mickayla is caring, goes above and beyond to ensure Elsie is well cared for, and Elsie absolutely loves her! We will definitely call on Mickayla the next time we need to be away from home overnight.”

Mickie M.

“On time, friendly, understands dogs”

“I can't say enough good things about Lindsay! She cared for my dogs (one is a puppy) on Saturday while we attended a wedding, and her understanding, thoroughness, and genuine love for animals gave me complete peace of mind. I was able to fully enjoy the evening without a single worry about my furry children. Thank you, Lindsay for being amazing! We'll definitely be booking again! :)”

About: I’ve owned dogs since I was a baby, and started dog sitting in my neighborhood when I was just 13. I’ve stayed overnight, popped in for walks, feeding, and quality time, and have even taken dogs to appointments! I love to go on walks, but also be calm at home, I’m always down to play, but I’m also down to take a nap when they’re tuckered out! I’m currently part time at build a bear and attending cosmetology school! So when I’m off school and off work I’ve got plenty of time with the babies! My shifts at work typically range from 5-7 hours at the most, and from Thursday-Saturday I attend school from 9-4:30 in Willsonville. I sometimes will have work after school till 7pm or 8, but will always let you know ahead of time to avoid conflict! I’m not easily annoyed, and am very sweet on animals, I can be firm if needed, take a dog potty, and crate them. With cats I can make sure they stay out of things they don’t need to be in, and make sure everyone is happy overall!

“Katie did a great job looking after my older dog. She was right on time, obviously caring and followed all the instructions left for her, even sending photos of her visits. I highly recommend and would definitely hire Katie again.”

About: Hi! My name is Liv and I adore taking care of pets. I have had experience with all sizes of dogs, but I also love cats! I am currently available any day and any time besides Thursdays. Thursdays I have a reoccurring appointment that i must attend to. But I am free otherwise! It is extremely important to me to create a safe and loving environment for your pet. Building trust and comfort is my number one goal.

About: I’ve cared for both dogs and cats and understand how to give them attention, comfort, and structure. I’m patient with shy or energetic pets and make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I have experience feeding, cleaning, playing, and sticking to routines, and I treat every pet like my own. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always make sure owners feel updated and at ease. I work overnight shifts Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, so I’m available for morning and early afternoon visits on those days. I work 8 AM–4 PM on weekends, but I’m available before or after my shifts for check ins. I have full availability on Wednesdays and can offer flexible scheduling that day. I always aim to stay consistent with your pets routine to keep them comfortable and stress free. I make sure every cat is cared for in a calm, safe, and clean environment. I pay close attention to details like secure doors, clean litter boxes, and fresh food and water. I respect each cat’s boundaries and never force interaction, allowing them to feel comfortable at their own pace. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions to make sure your pet feels safe and stress free while you’re away.

About: I love pets more than most people but no time for one full-time myself. I love to love and give all the time and attention to the pets of others. It's one of the greatest joys in life. I currently only work part-time because I have my kiddo every other week and love to make sure I don't miss out on the younger years. I want a pet so bad, but just don't have time to have one full time myself. I would take my neighbors dog most weeks when he'd go out of town to care for him, and sadly moved away and would love to spend my free time loving on the pets of others. If a pet is child friendly, then yes to taking them when I have my kiddo. If not, I am child free every other week. I live in a safe and clean home and treat them as my own. I love to go outside, so frequent walks and restroom breaks are no problem for me. I live in a dog friendly area for walks and to use the restroom, so I can ensure your pet gets the love and care they need.
