Cat Sitting in Poughquag

“Hallie is incredible! We had her house sit for our cats and truly just expected her to spend the nights with them but she also spent lots of time during the day too. She also gives really detailed info and lots of pictures. All of which made us feel like our boys were well cared for and we could just enjoy our vacation. Highly recommend Hallie!”

“Stefanie is wonderful. She's a smart, reliable, respectful, and easygoing person. She is trustworthy, gentle and loving with our slightly skittish cats, and made real friends with them. Stefanie was so accommodating, sent us lots of updates and photos and truly set our minds at ease. We will ask her to kitty sit again without hesitation! If you want to relax on your getaway, hire her!!! She's a true gem!!”

“Veronica was wonderful with our two cats. I would recommend her to anyone and would use her services again anytime. It was the first time I used a sitter, and it worked out perfectly”

Laura G.

“Casey is the best! Any time Casey drops by the check on the cats while we are away, we come home to very happy kitties. Casey also always takes time to play with them and send pictures! 🐈🐈‍⬛”

“It was such a great decision to have Gladys and Liani take care of our cats! They proved to be extremely responsive, reliable, and punctual. When there was a car accident along the way, Gladys even checked in to let us know they would be a few minutes late. What really made Gladys and Liani stand apart from other sitters was their enthusiasm. It didn't seem like taking care of pets is just a job -- it seems that they genuinely love animals. Separately, while others made the initial scheduling process overly complicated, it was really easy to arrange everything with Gladys. Gladys and Liani earned our highest recommendation!”

“Jessie was a fantastic cat sitter. My cats are very shy but they warmed up to her quickly! I’m so grateful for the peace of mind that she brought while I was traveling. I’ll definitely book again!”

Samantha S.

“Erik got the job done with our rather complex requirements, visiting the house twice a day. Would hire him again.”

David S.

“Raenette took amazing care of our little girl, Chloe!”

Nick S.

“Jamie is awesome! Lots of cute photos and very considerate ☺️”

“Stephen is amazing! He’s well-versed with large breeds, and we were so happy to find someone experienced who Bowser absolutely loves walking with. He’s always punctual, and after just two walks, Bowser is already so excited to see him! It’s hard to find someone you can truly trust with your dog, and Stephen is definitely that person. Highly recommend!”

“Kelly was very reliable and resourceful. She followed our instructions to the letter, including the locking of the back deck slider--not easy to do. Our cats were content and even the skittish cat who avoids everyone, came out to say "Hi" to Kelly when she came in--that says so much. I would indeed recommend Kelly and Rover for cat and dog home services when you need to be away from home.”

About: I have taken care of all sorts of animals since I was very little. I am a equine major and own 3 dogs and a cat. I am working evenings part time on both weekends and weekdays around my softball schedule. I am looking forward to seeing and meeting all different animals. I am very responsible and trustworthy and care for your pets just as if they were my own. I would never want to put you in a place to have to worry.

About: My love for animals is truly unmatched. I cared for my husky from middle school until her passing, feeding, walking, and even giving her medicine from injections. I've also done the same for cats. That heads on experience taught me patience, responsibility, and deep compassion. I understand how much pets mean to their families and treat every animal like my own, whether it's a puppy or a senior needing special care. Pet care has always been a natural part of my daily life. Whether it's feeding, walking, or apending time with animals, I truly enjoy every moment. I make sure pets feel safe, loved and well cared for, no matter what my day looks like. My schedule is flexible during the morning, so I'm able to give pets the attention and time they deserve throughout the day and week. In a client’s home, I make sure to keep pets comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine whether it’s feeding times, walks, play, or medication. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family. I give lots of love, attention, and gentle care, especially for pets who may be anxious when their owners are away. I always keep communication open with updates and photos so you feel at ease while you're away.

About: Hi my name is Cory! I love dogs and they seem to know it right away. I have been around dogs since I was 4 years old. I have owned 2 akitas and an English bulldog . My latest Akita Diablo passed away 5 years ago and I haven't gotten another dog since his passing so currently I have no dogs. I only have chinchillas and a hamster as of now. I have a lot of experience working with dogs and they seem to feel relaxed and comfortable when in my care, making this the perfect job for me. I know how to approach these animals in a way that is non-threatening to reduce their anxiety and to help them relax. I can help to maintain the routine they are used to, so they will not get anxious or feel so alone while their owners are away. I have extensive knowledge concerning the different breeds of dogs and I know how to take care of them properly. I understand that some breeds have special needs and that the age of the dog will play a major role in how to take care of them. You can depend on me to provide excellent service and to take great care of your dog/dogs. I know what questions to ask to make sure I understand their specific needs. I will be full time dedicated to your furry child, providing walks and play time as much as needed! There is nothing I wouldn't do to make your dog feel comfortable and keep their schedule to your liking. Please provide a list with your dog's habits so I can make sure they feel at home. Don't hesitate to contact me, I am very flexible with my time, and I will love and care for your dog as my own. I'm currently off from work during the summer and during the school year I only work part time at an elementary school down the road from me (2 1/2 hrs) , So I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I will do anything to make your pup feel comfortable and at home away from home during his stay with me. I love detailed instructions so please feel free to let me know everything about your pet! I have a fenced in yard and 2 children who are huge dog lovers who would love to keep your dog(s) busy and keep them company!

“Kevin was great … highly recommend him and he was referred to me from another walker who couldn’t fit me in. Happy he was available!”

About: Growing up, my very first chores were dog- related, so animal care has always been integral in my life. While I sadly no longer have any furry friends of my own, I am an animal person at heart. I’ve pet-sat for family, neighbors, friends, Rover clients, for pets of all breeds and sizes, and I’m very comfortable around any dogs. I grew up with 2 German-shorthaired pointers, and I was responsible for their care daily before and after school. As we (me and the dogs!) all got older, I was the primary caretaker of them in their senior years, so I’m very familiar with the struggles and ailments that come with elderly dogs. I am strong enough to lift most dogs if stairs are any issue- our dogs were around 60-70lbs. I have had roommates with cats who I’ve become very close with. I’ve always loved cats, so learning to care for them and earning their trust was so exciting. I’ve cared for the cats for a week’s time before, so would feel comfortable caring for cats as well. I love pet sitting- it’s nice to have a furry friend to visit since I lack one in my own family at the moment! Any client of mine gets all the pets and attention they could ever dream up. I am also very active, and I walk or run every day, so having a companion there is a bonus for us both! I look forward to your consideration, and if you have any questions about my experience or anything please let me know. I am currently between full-time jobs but keeping my calendar updated very frequently with my summer availability as I am hoping to pick up work either ongoing or on a one-time basis! Depending on the comfort of each pet, I always spend some time introducing myself and getting to know them at first. Spend some time petting them and getting them comfortable with my presence in their space, and next playing with them if they’re up for it. Once they know they can trust me, we’ll take the day ahead together and they’ll alternate resting, playing with toys, and walking outside. I also love to share photos with owners, so I’ll be sure to keep you posted on what we’re up to.

“This was my first time using Rover and Clint made me feel comfortable about it. Asked good questions about my dog beforehand and sent good updates and pictures while with Lucy. She looked like a happy girl!”

“Thank you to Melissa for taking such good care of my kitty-girl, Fiona. I would absolutely recommend Melissa's services. I am so grateful for her quality, dependable care!”

About: I started my pet journey growing up with dogs as a kid. I adopted a hissy adult cat in 2017 (my exact words were, “I’m looking for the most difficult, pain in the butt cat you have” and they told me they had the perfect one!). After she passed unexpectedly from cancer, I started volunteering and fostering with a local animal shelter. Since January 2023 I’ve had almost 100 fosters! One puppy, two adult dogs, and a whole bunch of cats and kittens! I also walk dogs at the shelter when I’m able. I am also certified in pet first aid and working towards my Vet Tech degree. Because of my volunteer work with the shelter, I have a lot of varied experience when it comes to working with dogs and cats of all kinds both behaviorally and medically, although my area of expertise lies with cats. I work from home so have a relatively flexible schedule. My favorite animals to help are kitties (both in age and at heart) who need a little TLC during the day or check-ins when their paw-parents are away. Because my kitty baby was a runner, I am very cautious when entering/exiting a home. I am also very cautious when it comes to sanitation, toxic food and substances, and animal body language. I understand the importance of providing animals with mental and physical stimulation and am always eager to provide them with enrichment.
