Pet Sitting Puritas Longmead

“Katherine did an outstanding job attending to my 2 cats while I was away for a week. She described everything she did in detail via message within Rover app, every day at the specified time. She scooped the litter boxes, washed the food and water bowls, replenished the water and food, commented on much they ate, cleaned up the litter trails, and took out the bagged cleanups from the litterboxes to the trash cans. She visited the house prior to my vacation and listened closely to everything I said, taking notes and asking questions. She visibly wanted to meet my pets and get to know them better. I highly recommend Katherine to anyone who wants excellent care taken of their pets.”

“Kristi did a great job taking care of our colony--7 cats--which is a tall task. She fed them, cleaned out the litter, picked up some barf/hairballs, gave them treats, and generally took care of everything we needed for the cats while we were away. She provided updates on all the cats, including any health/behavioral details that might be concerning. She sent us photos (of the ones that weren't hiding) which was very reassuring. The cats seemed to enjoy getting attention from her as well. We'll for sure have Kristi come by again next time we're out of town.”

About: I was always asked to take care of my family friends dogs when they went on vacation or needed extra help. I love taking care of animals. I am free whenever as i’m home for summer, ready and excited to help whenever you need a hand i’m ready! I love all animals I have pet sat and have done housesitting jobs at the same time and have always shown up on time and got the work done and had took care of pets and gave them play time

“I have a very energetic 7 month old bernese moutain dog who loves to jump on you. Sirena was very patient and kind with him but also stern. He needs a little structure.”

“This was my first time using Rover, and James made the entire process incredibly easy. Before I even booked, he took the time to explain how everything worked and answered all my questions, which helped me feel comfortable right away. During the first week of appointments, he continued to check in, guide me through the app, and make sure I knew what to expect. He visits three days a week to help socialize my very grumpy, very particular cat, and he’s been so patient with her. He gives her space when she needs it, tries gently to engage when she’s willing, and always makes sure she’s fed and cared for. He’s flexible, kind, and clearly committed to helping her warm up at her own pace. The photos he takes are great. They always capture her personality and the fun notes he leaves on each report card make the updates something I look forward to. His consistency and care have made a real difference, and I’m grateful to have found someone I trust.”

“Tyler helped us for a drop in visit with our 12 week old puppy! He was very attentive. We had a video call before hand to go over all instructions. I would definitely book him again!”

Rachel P.

“This is the 2nd time she has taken care of my cat while I was away. She is absolutely wonderful at taking care of my cat and his needs. Will definitely rebook”

About: i’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes for several years now and always treat them as my own. your dog will feel right at home at my house with lots of room for play time and also lots of cozy places to snuggle! I work full time but am available intermittently through the week and on weekends for daytime and overnight care. We enjoy taking walks and exploring the city but also napping and relaxing when needed! I have a semi fenced in yard that is pretty spacious. Dogs are always leashed when taken out for safety purposes. Cleanliness is a top priority along with making sure your dog is happy and healthy.

“Fantastic sitter! Went above and beyond to care for my cat while I was gone for 10 days. Was very communicative and caring. Even watered my plants which was a huge plus!”

About: I currently have 1 dog, 1 cat, and tons of exotics!I have worked in a pet rescue giving me experience with shy dogs and the most outgoing dogs. I've been trained on safe walking practices and safe dog interactions. I would love to help care for your pets! With the pets I have, I'm always working and learning about the care I can provide them! With my dog and cat, I'm ready to play with them. I also work at a pet store specializing in fish. I'm happy and ready to join your pets live's as long as I can! For dog walking and drop in visits I like to spend time letting the dog sniff me before harnessing or leashing. I want to make sure they are comfortable with me in their space. Once showing a more relaxed body language I'm ready to earn trust and take walks around neighborhoods and take dogs out for their potty breaks.

“Alex was excellent!! Our doggo loved having her there. She was extremely communicative and I loved receiving the pictures of her visit. I will 100% rebook Alex in the future.”

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life and started watching dogs for family and friends while in college and couldn't have my own. I've enjoyed watching pets for my loved ones and now that I am in a house and working remotely I want to be able to provide my pet care experience to more fur babies. While the majority of my experience is with dogs I've also taken care of cats, fish, anoles, bearded dragons, rabbits, chinchillas, and hedgehogs. I'm open to caring for all sorts of animals and I'm able to be flexible with your needs. I work outside the house part time so when pets are with me they are my first priority and I only accept pets when I know I have enough time to give them all the attention they need. I have caged animals that I let out when I can supervise them so they house is animal proofed and anything potentially harmful is locked away. I have baby gates that can be put up to keep puppies/ elderly dogs from falling down the stairs. My back yard is enclosed on 3 sides by fencing and would be watched and leashed at all times when outside.

About: I've been an animal person my entire life. I grew up helping pet-sit the neighborhood dogs, and my family loved a rescue German Shepherd/Rottweiler mix from the time I was 10 (she was 2) until she was 15 - she watched us grow up and even visited my college house. As an adult, my heart belonged to January, a border collie/American Staffordshire terrier mix I brought home in my late 20s after seeing her story on the news. She was an energetic, clever puppy who taught me patience, consistency, and the value of positive training. We had 13 wonderful years together before she passed in November 2025. Losing January left a hole in my routine and my heart, and I’m not quite ready to adopt again - but I’ve found real joy and healing in caring for other people's pets. I've recently house-sat and hosted dogs, cats, and birds for friends and family, from puppies and kittens to seniors on medications with special needs. That experience, plus a gentle nudge from the people who suggested Rover, is what brings me here. I've used the same trusted vet since I was a kid and know the ropes - comfortable administering medication, contacting the vet, or getting emergency care if needed. Your pet will be loved, watched closely, and cared for like one of my own. I work a hybrid schedule: two days at home (typically Monday and Friday) and three 8-hour days in an Avon Lake office (Tuesday-Thursday). My schedule is flexible and easy to swap these days. I can use my noon lunch break for midday walks, potty breaks, and playtime if you're within 5-10 miles of my location. I’m available in the evenings after work for walks, feeding & visits. I'm also happy to water plants, bring in mail, and handle other small house-sitting tasks. I live in a cozy Lakewood duplex on the first floor with a front yard and porch that dogs (including my former dog and the neighbors’ dogs) love to lounge on. I have a yard stake leash available for safe outdoor time. I already have bowls, beds, leashes, and other supplies, so your pup won't need to travel with a pile of gear if you don’t want to. I can board up to two dogs at a time -any size, any friendly mix - but I don't board cats in my home (happy to care for them at yours).

About: I have loved and cared for multiple pets throughout the years- all with different purrsonalities, ages, and likes. I currently own 6 cats; but only two of my babies live with me the other four have been kidnapped by their grandparents. Most of my cats all love to cuddle and some of them even play fetch. When I have brought other pets home to watch and play with, my cats are always welcoming and I enjoy learning and experiencing every pets different personality. I currently work 3 12s as a nurse, but the other four days of my week I am usually home at least 8 hours during the day. I always get up two hours before work and I feed, play with, and cuddles me cats for at least an hour because they put me in a happy mood to start my day. When I get back from work I spend about an hour to two with them before I fall asleep. On my off days I am usually home and will spend time and play with my cats whenever they want to. It just depends on if they want to sleep, cuddle, or play. I have a two bedroom townhome with just myself and my two cats in. My cats are allowed anywhere throughout my home and are usually found either sleeping in my bed or on my couch basking in the sunlight and staring out the window. I feed my cats twice a day- once in the morning and at night. Sometimes they’ll get a snack mid day and they receive treats sometimes when they are extra cute. I also clean their litter box every morning so it smells good and they feel good about going to the bathroom in their box. If I go somewhere to care for another persons pet I will feed them based off the owners schedule and will clean their litter box as often as needed, usually once a day. I will also play with them and show them as much or little attention as they want.

About: My dog growing up was a black lab chow mix, so I work well with energetic dogs and love to run and play with them. I love to be outside and would love to take your dog on a walk/hike with me! I joined Rover to spend time with animals, get some exercise, and help you take care of your furry companions. I am hardworking, reliable, and punctual. I’m currently working hybrid so I’m flexible with dog walking times and my ability to dog sit! My job is 9-5, but I can stop over before/after and on breaks between meetings depending on your dog’s needs! I am flexible to either let your dog out in a fenced-in-backyard or take them on a leashed walk! The length and duration of that walk can be adapted to your dogs’ energy levels!
