Top rated Port Matilda cat sitters
“Kami was awesome! This is the first time I felt relaxed about leaving the kitties while on vacation. She sent pictures every day so we could tell how well they were doing. My one cat is very shy and diabetic, by mid week he was warming up to her and by the end was her friend. We will definitely use Kami again. I'd give 10 stars!”
“This was the first time Tara came to take care of my three Spaniels. She had never been in my home previously, so to my canines, she was a stranger. It seemed not to matter. Certainly they understand if someone stops by we are going get fed ! ! Tara came by twice in one day. All went well and she sent me pictures and updates during both of her visits. I look forward to having Tara as a dog sitter in the future.”
“Christa was an awesome cat sitter! I loved getting her updates, and my cat seemed super happy with her. She even cleaned up his messy eating spot and gave him plenty of attention. When I got back, my cat wasn't as mad at me as usual, so I know Christa did a great job!”
“Michele and Robert go above and beyond. They water our plants, and take out our trash bin, even did some our dishes when we unexpectedly had to travel when a family member died. Our kitties who are usually pretty anxious around strangers have even started letting them pet them when they come over. Communication is easy, and they're always prompt with updates. 10/10”
“Chloe was great for the girls while I was out of town. Was on time (or alerted me if she was running late for any reason) and did everything I asked of her, and provided daily pictures to keep me at ease. Thanks Chloe!”
“Lauren did a great job cat sitting for us! We loved getting a daily photo and update! Our cat is very particular about how he drinks water and Lauren did a great job accommodating his needs!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience and deep understanding of animal care. I’ve worked in the animal field for over six years, including a year at an animal shelter where I cared for cats and dogs of all breeds, ages, and behavior types. I’m currently a veterinary assistant, so I’m confident handling medical needs when it come administering medications and recognizing signs of illness or distress. Whether it’s caring for playful puppies, senior pets with special needs, or nervous rescues, I always focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment tailored to each animal’s personality. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. It’s not just a job, but something I genuinely enjoy. Between working as a veterinary assistant and caring for my own pets, I’m constantly surrounded by animals. Feeding, walking, playtime, administering medications, or just giving extra cuddles, it all fits into my day with purpose and care I care for my own pets and client pets by providing plenty of enrichment and paying close attention to their individual needs. Whether it’s interactive play, mental stimulation, or simply understanding their body language, I make sure each pet feels safe, engaged, and cared for in a way that suits their unique personality. I care for every clients pet like my own, making sure they feel comfortable and loved.
“We needed a new petsitter after the last one moved out of town. We contacted Sarah and it was great! She did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats, she followed all the instructions for their care, like giving them their favorite treats, toys, grooming. Also, we loved the pictures she send everyday. We will book her again next time we need to.😊”
“I had a great experience with Madison! This was my first time using rover and I was a bit nervous leaving my kitty for a week but Madison sent updates and pictures that put me at ease through my trip! She was very accommodating and fulfilled all my weird requests perfectly!”
“I loved Brooklyn! She was very attentive, flexible, and kind. I hope I get to use her services again the next time I am out of town. She arranged a prior meeting with me to get to know my elderly cat and to learn her needs and then was in constant communication with me about her health and how she was doing.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better house sitter! Jenia went above and beyond while caring for our entire crew—an energetic dogs, and even our backyard flock of chickens. From the start, she was communicative, responsible, and incredibly kind with all our animals. Our dogs were clearly well-exercised and, and our chickens were healthy, secure, and even gave us more eggs than usual—must be Jenia’s calming presence! We got regular updates, photos, and check-ins that made us feel totally at ease while we were away.
