“Let me start by saying we are very picky when it comes to our two cats and who can take care of them.....I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Jennifer to take care of your kitties. I called her the "Cat Whisperer" as she was able to make friends with our Teddy....who is hard to get along with....Jennifer is very knowledgeable when it comes to cats, takes her time when working with them..She is prompt and did a fantastic job for us while we were away for an extended time.....We will be calling on Jennifer again in the future no doubt about that......Thank you Jennifer for taking such good care of our 2 fur babies....”
About: I will treat them like my own, keep you updated, leave notes, can help train puppies. I will help with medications if needed. I went to school for veterinarian Technician but stopped to help my parent's needs. Hopefully will go back to it when things calm down in my own personal life. I'm very hands on and I do personally like to meet owners and their animals a week or so prior to taking care of your babies to make sure we are all in a good spot before I am with them by myself. Some animals are trickier and more skittish than others. I do not do overnight stays at client's homes. I will go to your home 2-3 times a day depending on the animals and their needs. I also at this time have 3 dogs, 2 rabbits, a guinea pig, 2 birds, a Ball python, and a Leopard Gecko and a Bearded dragon. a dad who needs me on hand, a parrot, and a flock of homing pigeons that all need me, but I do feel I balance it out very well. This does go hand in hand with what I said Above. I do keep a positive environment for your animals. I do bring treats with me for any reason at all. Especially when I need to keep your animals trust for myself to take care of them for you or just because giving them a good boy or girl treat is never a BAD thing. Ya know? If you want them walked just let me know, If you have a fenced in yard I'll go outside with them and play with them. I can take them on walks as well if you would like or if they are being really energetic I can as well. If toys and attention from me isn't cutting it for them. I really just try to keep them happy, healthy, and safe while you are away. If you have any comments, concerns, questions that I didn't really answer on here. I do work long hours Monday- Friday plus my dad and everything the phone isn't always the easiest. BUT if you do call or text me, I will get back to you as soon as possible.
“This was our first time using Rover, and Fran really eased our minds. She came for a meet and greet prior to our vacation, and we immediately knew our 3 cats would be extremely well cared for in our absence. She texted us with questions, updates, and pics. She followed our instructions for medication, special diets, and timed-feedings. She is a super nice person, and will take care of your pets as her own. We definitely recommend her services and plan on requesting her again the next time we go away.”
About: Growing up with dogs of all kinds, provided lots of experience when caring for dogs and including seniors with complex needs. I bring 30+ years of hands-on experience. I’ve managed long-term epilepsy care and I’m comfortable giving medications. I cook balanced meals and focus on nutrition, not just the basics. More than anything, I keep pets engaged, comfortable and safe, so owners can feel truly at ease. I am a jiu jitsu and yoga instructor, as well as a homemaker. My schedule is fairly open, and easily adjusted to accommodate your fur baby’s needs. I will follow any and all instructions provided for the safe & comfortable handling of your fur baby. When out of the house for a walk, I will ensure they are leashed and I will be always in full alert to prioritize your fur baby’s experience.
“We are so happy with the care Amanda gave Zuess! Very prompt, attentive, and met all his needs! We will def. Be requesting her again! It really means everything when you can trust the person coming to your home and caring for your pet when your away.”
“Both of my cats have their quirks and health needs, but Dani was able to ease my worries about leaving them in her care. She was great with communication at each visit and didn't hesitate to reach out with anything to make sure my boys got what they needed while I was away. I came home to safe, happy cats and I would definitely have her check in on them again in the future!”

I get along great with dogs young and old as well as big and small and have had experience dealing with reactive dogs as well.

Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
