Cat Sitting in Rescue

“Adrienne did a great job caring for my three cats. I love that she is very smart, dependable and trustworthy. I will definitely hire Adrienne again.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my reliability, attention to detail, and genuine care for each pet as an individual. I take the time to learn and follow a pet’s routine exactly so they feel safe and comfortable, whether they’re a puppy, adult, or senior. I’m patient and confident working with puppies, including basic training reinforcement, potty routines, and leash manners. I’m also attentive to senior pets, providing gentle care, slower-paced activity, medication support if needed, and close monitoring for any changes in behavior or health. I communicate clearly with owners and treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits into my routine through consistent daily habits and a small weekly reset. I take care of feeding and fresh water every day, along with making time for exercise, bathroom breaks, and attention so my pet stays healthy and engaged. I also do quick health checks to make sure everything seems normal. Once a week, I focus on cleaning, grooming, and restocking supplies. Overall, it’s built into my day in a way that feels manageable and routine rather than overwhelming. I care for pets by following a consistent, attentive routine that prioritizes their safety, comfort, and well-being. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, always have fresh water, and get the appropriate exercise and bathroom breaks they need. I provide companionship and enrichment through play, attention, and positive interaction, while also monitoring their behavior and health for any changes. I follow any specific instructions given by the owner, including medication, feeding preferences, and routines, to ensure pets feel comfortable and secure in their environment

“Elaine’s care of our sweet two young kitties was truly wonderful. We received the most thoughtful lovely updates regularly with photos. She brushed and cuddled them and even cleaned them before we picked them up. I felt totally at peace and happy to have my precious two in her care. I am so grateful I found her and we will be back soon!”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, and my family got our first pet around 10 years ago. Since then, I’ve grown up around 2 of my own dogs since they were little, and I now have 3 kittens. I have pet sat multiple times before for both dogs and cats! My dream job when i was younger was to be a veterinarian, but decided against it once i found out i would have to put animals down. I currently work 1 full time job as a customer service rep in el dorado hills, 7am-3:30pm Mon-Fri. My availability consists of mainly drop in visits in the evenings, and anytime on the weekends. Depending on the time frame, I am also open to stay over visits as well. Due to having cats, I cannot have stay in visits. Since i have 2 cats, boarding at my home is most likely unavailable. But I am available to come to your home! I adopted my 2 year old cat 1 year ago(Miss Kitty), and she came from the streets of Modesto. to accommodate her anxiety, we made sure to place various cat trees to ensure confidence. We ensure balanced diets as well as hydration, since I have a 9 month old male kitten(Zacian), that I adopted in June 2025. I make sure they have plenty of play time, usually 30 mins-1 hour a day. For dogs, we walk or fetch instead.

“Irena is a sweetheart and very professional. We are so happy to have found her and hope to have her as the regular sitter for our two cats for a long time to come. We’ve already had her for three different trips. She’s the best.”

About: I am a middle-school English teacher in El Dorado County! I am looking for opportunities to earn some extra money on the side, and after a long and exhausting day at school, I’d love to decompress and give your fur babies all of my love and attention. Aside from having the qualities of a teacher of teenagers, I am a very responsible and patient person running on a consistently empty social battery with many evenings and weekends coming up to spend with your furry/scale-y/feathery loved ones!! I have experience with dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, personalities, and medical needs. My experience with other miscellaneous pets is little, but I am open to figuring it out! I have been a pet-sitter on Rover for a very long time, but have been on and off with availability due to moving and career shifts, explaining the gaps in my Rover resume. I have some future dates blocked out for fall and winter, but please message me with any inquiries that land around these dates so that we can figure something out! I am a full-time teacher in El Dorado, commuting from my apartment in Cameron Park. I am typically at work from 8am-4pm, but have flexibility in being able to leave a bit earlier if necessary. I work remotely on most Fridays, but can’t guarantee that I won’t be pulled in for a half-day of meetings and PD. Weekends and afternoons are completely free, if given enough time in advance to rearrange any plans previously made. I am extra careful to check on gates and door/window locks. I am used to skid-dish animals that attempt prison breaks! My approach to house environment is to replicate as much normalcy to the pet as possible.

About: I have been around dogs for as long as I can remember. I have helped in raising show dogs and family dogs. My dog raising experience over the years has been with all size dogs ranging from a teacup Yorkie to an English Mastiff. I love taking dogs for walks and runs or just playing fetch. I have taken dog obedience classes with my dogs through the 4-H club. I was also an active member of the Ponderosa FFA, helping with many different animals. Some of the many different animals I have taken care of along with dogs; include cats, horses, goats and chickens. I am very accountable, punctual, responsible, organized, and caring. I will be able to care for any animals and their needs. I work late evening shifts, but have free time throughout the day to stay and play with your furry friends. I can stop by late at night and early in the morning, but I am unable to stay fully overnight. I actively interact with my dogs all day and initiate lots of exercise as well as down time. I make sure to pay attention to the pets needs and adjust accordingly.

About: Tailored pet care with over 30 years of experience. I provide a warm and nurturing environment, ensuring that you and your pet feel loved and protected. I work full-time in a position that offers the flexibility to work from home, allowing me to split my time between the office and the comfort of my own space. On average, I work from home about 50% of the time, which gives me a great balance of productivity and personal time. My office is just a short drive away, so I’m never far from home and can easily make the commute whenever needed. This arrangement allows me to be present for both work and home life, ensuring I can stay connected while also enjoying the benefits of a flexible schedule. I live on a peaceful, country property spanning three acres, surrounded by nature and wide-open spaces. The entire property is securely fenced, ensuring a safe and enclosed environment where your pets can roam freely and explore to their hearts' content. With plenty of room to run, play, and enjoy the outdoors, it's an ideal setting for furry companions to stretch their legs and soak up the fresh air. Whether it's chasing after a ball or simply lounging in the sun, your pets will have all the space they need to feel at home.

“Ruth took excellent care of our 3 kitties! I love that she was very thorough and took the time to let us know in detail everything she did with each visit. Although our kitties are very shy and hid under the bed when she came over, she still made sure to check on them and snap a pic so we could see their glowing eyes under the bed. ? We would definitely recommend Ruth and will be happy to have her care for our kitties again. ?”

About: With over 20 years of hands on pet care experience, I provide loving, reliable care for animals of all shapes and sizes. From dogs and cats to reptiles, birds, rodents, rabbits, fish, and even amphibians, I’ve cared for them all!

Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or specialized care, your pets will be treated like family. My goal is to keep tails wagging, whiskers twitching, and feathers fluttering while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. I work Mondays-Fridays 7AM-3:30PM. If you need an AM drop-in, I will be there at 6AM sharp! for PM sitting/walking, I am available from 4PM-9PM. Weekends, I am available all day long :) I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect. I arrive on time, follow all instructions carefully, and ensure that each pet receives the full attention and care they need within the scheduled visit. I move at a calm and patient pace, making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and happy while respecting the home environment. I am experienced with a wide range of animals and trained to recognize signs of stress, illness, or discomfort. Medications, feeding, play, and exercise are all handled precisely as requested, giving pet owners peace of mind that their furry, feathered, or scaly family members are in trusted, loving hands.

“Lauren was great with our two cats! The updates were great and when we got home everything was exactly the way we left it! Thank you Lauren for taking such good care of our cats!”

About: I recently moved back here after having spent the last 5 years in Los Angeles. I was emotionally & mentally exhausted from working a 9-5 within such a large city. I missed my animals, the sound of nature & the outdoors. I would love to care for your pets as they enrich my life so much, and I would love to enrich theirs! A LITTLE ABOUT MY EXPERIENCE: Animals have been apart of my life since I could remember: I grew up on a farm! 9 acres of land, filled with horses, chickens, cats, dogs, rats & a free roaming tortoise! The main animal I was surrounded by was cats. We had anywhere from 6-13 at a time! This was mainly due to the litter of kittens my mom, sister & I would foster for months at a time. Our primary focus was bottle baby kittens. I always say, I am a dog mom, but a cat person! Both are extremely near and dear to my heart. MY PETS: My dog’s name is Saint & he is my entire world. I adopted him from a rescue in Riverside, CA only a year and a half ago. He was an aggressive, scared dog who needed constant love and patience to gain his trust. Now, he is an energetic, loving, hilarious boy! Our favorite activities were hikes & playing fetch. Fun fact: he looks identical to 🐕 Saint has taught me how to care for temperamental dogs through positive reassurance as well as the importance of a dynamic, safe environment. MY SPECIALTIES: Senior dogs Energetic dogs Bottle baby kittens Senior cats Medication I am fully open & available! Any day, any time! Please just give me some time to plan accordingly (a few hours / days etc)! I live with my parents, my sweet dog & our senior cats! We have outdoor decks, a lawn & 9 acres of land within the property. Additionally, our neighborhood has many trails, lakes & spots to hang out!

“Sondra and Marius took great care of my pets. My dog has daily medication and they had no problem handling that. They even stayed a bit longer on one visit when they noticed my dog was more anxious than usual. I also have 2 cats that they were able to care for.”

About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life. I grew up on a farm during my childhood, where I was responsible for caring for our family's dogs and cats, and that early experience helped shape my love and understanding of pets. Over the years, I’ve also pet-sat for my sisters, relatives, and family friends, including a variety of breeds such as Dalmatians, pit bulls, and German Shepherd mixes. I’ve trained my own dog as well, which has given me hands-on experience with high-energy and highly intelligent breeds. I’m comfortable caring for both puppies and seniors, and I’m very attentive—nothing goes unnoticed when pets are in my care. I’m happy to work with dogs and cats that have specific needs and always follow any detailed care instructions you provide. unnoticed when pets are in my care. I’m happy to work with dogs and cats that have specific needs and always follow any detailed care instructions you provide. I currently attend university online, which gives me a highly flexible schedule. This allows me to be readily available for clients and accommodate a wide range of booking needs. In my home, I’m able to care for small-breed dogs. I have a fully fenced backyard with gravel, and all pups enjoy at least two daily walks so they can stretch their legs and get a change of scenery. I’m also happy to provide in-home pet sitting for dogs of any breed or for cats. I just ask for a quick meet-and-greet beforehand to make sure it’s a great fit. If you prefer your pet to be crated while I’m out, or if they have specific routines or care needs, I will always follow your instructions to keep them comfortable and safe.

“Good communication! Thanks again!”

About: I have professionally worked with dogs for 7+ years from training, boarding, and rescuing. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and behaviors and have always had all types of animals in my home. If your dog is reactive or your senior cat would prefer to be fed and left alone, I am willing to accommodate to the needs of every animal. If asked of, I also am confident in pet grooming and returning your pup clean. I would like to clearly state as well I am in no way a licensed vet technician or dog groomer, however I do have plenty of experience in bathing and I can promise your bestfriend will be returned in great conditions! I have a fairly flexible schedule as a student- I try and spend the majority of house sitting stays in the home with your animals. Please reach out with dates and times, and we can work together to arrange a preferred schedule for your pet! I have quite a few clients from outside of rover and can provide additional references upon request. I am unable to providing boarding for your pet at the time, but am available for any size of walks, grooming, and of course in house check ups or hangouts.
