About: In my younger years I was known as that house you could trust your pets with, which sadly led to less boarding and daycare services and more abandonment of pets on my doorstep. I accepted each surrender because I always figured better here with me then on the streets. After successfully adopting out all these love bugs to people I knew and trusted over the years, I've found myself in smaller quarters. I've found comfort and fulfillment in caring for outdoor cats (commonly referred to as strays) Taking in an orange Tabby to call my own in the process. I've made friends with neighbors who share the same love and passion and through these connections found community - a cat community! I currently care for three cats (siblings), house-sitting as well while their human parents are away. Each individual cat has it's different wants/needs. Through these experiences I've learned gaining trust and love is different for each individual feline. I'm looking to expand my care/services to neighboring cat families mainly because I love cats and know how important it is to have a community of cat folks in your corner when duty, vacation or emergencies call. I'm currently employed by Uber Eats so I make my own schedule. I'm open to weekend care as well. The only thing I do religiously is cultural dancing on Wednesday nights. My current clients are all indoor kitties so I am used to securing the household, feeding on a schedule throughout the day and doing enrichment with them be that play or individual love and cuddle time. I prepare meals specific to each cats needs, keep litterboxes and surrounding areas clean and keeping water stations fresh.
“Jenna was great with our two cats while we were out of town for the week! She made sure they had wet and dry food, water and clean litter boxes each day. Great communication and sent us pictures each day”
“Natalie was incredibly kind and accommodating to our two cats and their unique personalities. I would absolutely love to continue working with her in the future!”
“Erika did a fantastic job and truly went above and beyond. From her detailed check in reports, to her bringing in packages without being asked - I’m floored at the level of care that she provides. Absolutely contact her if you need pet care - you will not regret it!!”
“Dustin is wonderful. I often need to make last minute plans. Dustin always quickly responds to out request to let us know his availability. Our dog, Hank, is aging and Dustin takes such good care of him. I never need to worry as Dustin is 100% reliable. I highly recommend Dustin as he is the best of the best”
About: I’ve owned both dogs and cats in the past, as well as walked neighbors and friends dogs! Moved to a new city so looking for new pups and cats! Currently have a full time job but find myself in one place most of the day so looking for ways to stay active! I’m available most weekends, and week day nights! I like to keep a clean space so am sure to clean up after animals, as well as have a safe space for them to play, eat, and use the bathroom!
“Thank you, Jordan! We really appreciated Jordan taking the time to meet with us before dog sitting. He did a great job handling our puppy’s rambunctious energy and we’re glad to have another dog sitter nearby we can trust. Cleo looked soooo happy with him!”
“Samantha was a joy to work with. She was so kind and took such great care with Boo. We are so sad that she is moving out of the area and wish her the best of luck in all her endeavors! Thank you, Sam!”
“If you are looking for a “stranger” to trust in your home, with full access, without worry, and to care for your fur babies possibly better than you can? Then look no further. Jandy is a gem, a treasure, a wonder, an animal whisperer! She did a home visit before and it felt like a calm kindred spirit entered our home. All the animals loved her. Even our cats whom I said “they don’t say hi to strangers” sauntered out to say hi and let her pet them!!! She took care of our dogs and cats while o was out of town. She sent numerous videos and photos and absolutely went above and beyond. She was always talking to them so gently and they all acted calmly and clearly had a great time with her as much as replacement! I even learned things from her about our pack, and some additional tips and tricks (and I’m well versed). Too boot, as if this wasn’t enough, our cats cornered a baby field mouse and Jandy got the mouse in a box and took care of it. In my world that is the level of care, humanity, kindness and empathy I wished all human embraced and we struck gold that we found her as a pet sitter. You can’t go wrong with Jandy - you may even find a reason to have her come back. I think our crew will miss her. Give Jandy all the awards. I’d give 10 stars if I could!”
About: I’ve taken care of lots of types of dogs and cats. I have experience giving medicine to both dogs and cats ( I have experience with the cat burrito maneuver). I am patient with animals and do my best to meet them at their level. I am an owner of a high energy dog and she has taught me so much about talking care of pets. During the week, I have availability for lunchtime walks and evening hang. On the weekends, my schedule is much more open and I can be available whenever you need me. When taking a dog into a backyard I always make sure they are supervised. My pup is a jumper and can easily jump a fence. So I know what to look out for. When in a new spaces I always walk the fence line to check for any holes or loose boards. With indoor cats, I enter and exits the house carefully so nobody escapes. I understand cats can be shy, so i usually pick a spot and hang out quietly there and wait for the cat to come to me.
“Jenna was great with our cats! I appreciated she was available on such a short notice and followed instructions as well as played with our cats. We will definitely have her sit for us again!”
“My cat now needs medication and Michelle was able to come over and administer it while I was out of town. She said she was very comfortable and administered the medication with no issue. I appreciate that I can always count on her to take care of my kitties so well while I’m away!”
About: My family has always been a pet family, so I have been taking care of animals my entire life. In recent years, one of my pastimes has been walking dogs at shelters in order to meet their exercise needs. From big to small I have walked them all. I am currently a university student on summer break. My mornings to mid afternoons are free to take care of your pets. Weekends are also available. I am respectful of others homes and their preferences regarding their pets. Please let me know if you have any specific requests or things to avoid when taking care of your previous companion.
About: I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs throughout my life, starting with a family dog who taught me responsibility, patience, and how important daily care and attention really are. As an adult, I raised my miniature Italian Greyhound, Blu, from a playful puppy through every stage of his life until he crossed the rainbow bridge. He was truly my everything, and caring for him gave me a deep appreciation for the routines and love pets thrive on—from regular walks and feeding schedules to playtime, companionship, and understanding their unique personalities. Those experiences have made me attentive, reliable, and genuinely passionate about making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. And now, as a proud cat dad, I’m well-versed in caring for all kinds of furry family members—be sure to check out my cat bio too! As a stay-at-home dad, I have the flexibility to truly build my day around the pets in my care. I understand how important consistency and routine are, and I make it a priority to follow each pet’s schedule as closely as possible—whether that means regular walks, feeding times, play sessions, or just quiet companionship. Because I’m home throughout the day, I’m able to give pets the time, attention, and affection they deserve, not just the basics. Whether your pet needs extra exercise, a little patience, or lots of love, I can adapt to what makes them feel most comfortable and happy. I treat every pet like part of the family, and their routine becomes part of mine. I focus on caring for pets in their own home, where they feel safest and most at ease. Being in a familiar space helps reduce stress, so my goal is to step in and keep things feeling normal for them while you’re away. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and personality so I can provide care that feels consistent and comfortable. With three cats at home, I’m used to picking up on the little things—body language, moods, and individual quirks—and I bring that same attentiveness into every visit. I’m there for more than just the basics; I make sure pets feel seen, cared for, and genuinely loved. Whether that means energetic play, sticking to a detailed routine, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family.
“Michelle was so so helpful despite me booking a trip and needing Rover care near to last minute. She is really attuned to detail and she went above and beyond with care, leaving my apartment clean and tidy. It’s obvious she’s an animal lover and she was so sweet in sending detailed updates about my cats. My travel plans changed and we had to modify the booking but Michelle was really understanding, professional and accommodating about it. Would book her again or recommend to anyone in a heartbeat. Thank you!!!”

Richmond Grove pet parents share their Rover experiences
Delaney has been our go to pet sitter for a while now. She is always very responsive in all messaging and takes great photos and notes with updates on how our kitties are doing while she is there. Definitely puts my family at ease knowing that they are so well cared for when we are away.
Emily was an awesome cat sitter for our two week vacation! She was a great communicator, quick to respond, and always kept us updated with lots of photos and videos. It’s always hard leaving our cats for that long, but Emily gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were cared for, loved, and getting plenty of attention while we were away. We’re so grateful we found her. 10/10 would recommend, and we will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!
It's clear the amount of care and undertanding Jandy has of animals with the way she interracted with my cat. Not only does she spend significant time getting to know them and ensuring the human that their fur baby is in good hands, she also built my cat a blanket fort for enrichment while I was gone. It was very sweet and I know my cat was in good hands.
Natalie did a great job. She was thorough and efficient. Her care for my cat showed her love for animals and especially my kitty cat. She was very responsive to any real time questions I had while I was gone. On top of caring so well for my cat she gathered my mail, watered plants, put out the trash cans and change lighting in the house every day. Will definitely hire her again.
