“Cassandra is just amazing. My scaredy-cat Maya is afraid of everyone, but just loves Cassandra. I know because I get sent photos from Cassandra every visit. Cassandra takes excellent care of my cat and my home. We are repeat customers and can't say enough wonderful things about Cassandra.”
“The absolute best!! Juliette first watched our kitties during our wedding and now during our honeymoon. She cares for your pets like they’re her own & will help you relax when you’re away from your fur babies . Definitely recommend booking with her !”
“Lily provided excellent care for our cat Hobson. Our directions were followed completely and we enjoyed the daily photos. Hobson is in excellent condition after this booking. We are very grateful.”
“Amber was the first person I have ever used through Rover and I was impressed. She was very compliant to my requests and extremely helpful. She took good care of my cat in my absence, which wasn’t exactly easy considering how shy Cleo can be with strangers. But from Amber’s updates it was evident that she really tried to bond with her and gained her trust towards the end of the week. Highly recommend.”
“Justin and Eva were great. They showed up on time, cleaned up more than we were expecting and gave us plenty of updates on our cats. Our shy cat even started staying in the same room while they were there which is huge. I highly recommend them.”
About: Hello! I love all pets (furry, feathered and scaled) and have extensive experience providing animal care. Growing up we had fish, dogs, turtles, snakes, guinea pigs and a cat. My mother also made sure we gave back to our community volunteering at animal shelters where I helped post-op kittens and puppies heal in comfort. Currently I am the number one pet sitter all of my friends call when they leave town and was told that if I was smart, I would sign up for Rover to expand my care network. I am currently working on a PhD in Biomedical Science and engineering and make my own schedule. With notice I can fit potty walks into my daily routine, evening check ins or even overnight visits to care for your furry friends. My partner and I currently have a cat that adopted us. We have worked with our dear Oscar who was a very scruffy stray to build trust, support and a comfortable home. He even knows how to spin, sit and give a high five! When it comes to animals I try my best to work with compassion, patience and lots of love.
About: I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise and attention! I’ll take your dog for walks to help burn off any excess energy and ensure they have a chance to go potty. I’ll also provide the right amount of food to keep your dog healthy and happy. Whenever I can, I love to play fetch or have a fun race with dogs—keeping them engaged and active! For cats, I’ll provide a calm and caring environment, making sure they’re fed, hydrated, and get some playtime or cuddles if they’re in the mood. I understand that cats can be more independent, so I respect their space while ensuring they feel safe and loved. I understand how important it is to treat pets with love and care. As a pet owner myself, I always strive to give my dog the best, and I would do the same for yours. I’ll make sure they feel right at home with plenty of affection and attention. I have flexible availability and am excited to get to know your pets. I truly enjoy meeting new animals and giving them the care and love they deserve. I hope I can be a great fit for your pet! Pet care fits into my routine easily because I’m flexible with my schedule and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether it's daily walks, feeding, or just some playtime, I make sure to prioritize pets and give them the attention they need whenever I’m caring for them When caring for pets in a client's home, I make sure to follow any specific instructions they provide to ensure their pet feels comfortable and safe. For walks, I stick to their usual routes and routines. For feeding, I ensure I’m giving the right portions at the right times. I also provide plenty of attention—whether that’s playing, cuddling, or simply keeping them company—while respecting their space. I clean up after them, whether that’s cleaning their feeding area or ensuring their potty spots are tidy. Ultimately, I treat each pet as I would my own, making sure they feel loved and well-cared-for.
“Ellie is awesome! She stayed at our home with our three cats. She befriended our cranky old man & took excellent care of our boys. Ellie kept in contact with photos & updates of the boys. I greatly appreciate her care & support allowing me to feel comfortable while traveling. I will most definitely plan any future trip around Ellie’s availability to look after our guys!”
About: I grew up with both dogs and cats, and taking care of family and friends’ pets! While in high school I frequently pet sat and dropped in any time I had the chance! My childhood dog Sparks and I were attached at the hip, and shared a love for the outdoors. I am experienced in the care of puppies and kittens, to adult and senior animals. I work full time, and am available in evenings, as well as a few full weekdays. I am unavailable on weekends until the evening. I have a lot of free time and flexibility and can plan around what works best for your schedule, and your pet’s! I absolutely love being outdoors!! Your animal’s trust is the most important part of pet care. I believe in letting your pet advocate for themselves in every interaction. I will allow your pet to explore and experience new places and things at their own pace, and encourage their curiosity!
About: Hi! My name is Madeline. I am a passionate animal person and have been caring for animals pretty much my entire life. I've personally owned dogs, cats, horses, birds, fish, hamsters and cared for ferrets, snakes, and a variety of livestock/farm animals. I label myself as a true animal lover and pride myself on being able to connect with animals on a special level. I have been a professional sitter/dog walker for over 8 years now, and am ready to take on more clients. I do have a small home so I can only take 1-2 bookings at a time. I always aim to have a respectful relationship with owners and try to be as honest and helpful as possible! I have many, many references available. I look forward to meeting your pets! I am super flexible and always willing to hear your needs and see what we can make work, especially with the busy-ness that is the holidays. So feel free to reach out and I’ll see how I can best accommodate you and your pets 🙂 I do work a full time job M-F, but from home with lots of flexibility. My schedule is designed to be flexible and meet multiple pet owners needs. Let me know what your fur baby needs and we’ll get it arranged. I have a small cat who prefers to keep to herself. My home is dog proof and although I don’t have a fenced yard but I have wonderful walking areas in my community so your pet will end up with more walk time and socialization than just staying in a yard.
