Cat Sitting in Riverdale

“We have a had bad experiences in the past with friends watching our animals, so we decided to turn to rover in hopes to find someone reliable. Thank goodness we did, because Cher did an excellent job taking care of our animals while we were away! She followed our directions to a T and was very reliable! I look forward to booking her in the future.”

“i'm very picky of which dogsitter i pick for roscoe, but rain made me feel incredibly confident and comfortable with having them in my home (not to mention the added bonus of rain being a volunteer at the shelter i adopted Roscoe from!) they follow instructions to a T, always checking in with me and leaving my home better than when i left. i get consistent updates and quick responses! anyone who books Rain is lucky to have their pets in such good hands thank you!!”

“Michelle was great. She was responsive and asked great questions when it came to care for our cats. She made sure to cater to specific needs, and sent cut photos to let us know everything was okay. Would definitely recommend.”

About: I am not your typical pet-sitter. I have spent my entire life caring for all types of animals. My first job was at a pet store learning the skills of working with animals and their people. After college I worked as a zookeeper where I cared for everything from mealworms all the way to rhinos. Specialized care was the name of the game there and I was able to recognize the smallest details on how to improve my work with exotics. Then I was led into the world of shelter work. Where I studied pet behavior and early signs of stress and how enrichment can help save lives. Many animals coming into the shelter would need some form of medication as well. I have a skillset of administering medications and making sure the animals actually receive their meds. Lastly, I was a dog training apprentice. I was able to form bonds with dogs that most people wouldn't come near. I can read body language well and know how to show dogs respect. I aim to be your go-to pet-sitter where you can actually enjoy your trip. I will make your pet my priority. I have an excellent ability to find balance in my schedule. You can trust that your pet is cared for how you want them to be. I have quite a few pets in my home and all are well cared for. I will offer the same care to the animals you care for. I will ask for detailed instructions and follow your schedule as closely as I can.

“Lily was terrific. She connected with our cat immediately and took great care of her. She stayed in touch with us so we knew how each visit went and we could ask and answer questions. Would definitely have Lily pet sit again.”

About: Pet sitting was my first job ! I always watched other people’s dogs before I had dogs of my own ! I have 3 rescue dogs in my home now , who have all been through training and are great with other animals ! I work from home full-time . I barely ever have to leave the home , and if I do I have several kennels and comfort items for your dog to enjoy while I may have to step out I have a big fenced in yard ! Plenty of space for your dog to run and play with my dogs . I also have 4 large crates if the dog ever needs crated to have space away from the other dogs or simply just needs to decompress. Depending on the dogs needs , I will adjust accordingly.

About: I have a diploma in veterinary assisting, I’m very passionate about animal safety and all things to prolong animal living.

Anything that is told to me prior to caring for your animals will be main priority.

“William did a terrific job taking care of my Dicksie D when I was away for many hours yesterday. She was happy and comfortable with him. Plan to call upon him when I need someone again to care for her. Happy they enjoyed my Irish music together.”

I understand their needs, personalities, and how to make them feel safe and loved. I treat every pet like family, offering reliable, personalized care that gives pet parents true peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life—I’m home often, with a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets consistent attention, care, and companionship. I’ve raised animals in my home for over 15 years, so caring for pets is part of my routine. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or just quiet company, I truly enjoy every moment spent with animals. Pet care isn’t a chore for me—it’s something I love and make time for every day. I care for animals in my home as if they were my own—providing a safe, calm, and loving environment where they feel comfortable and secure. Whether it’s my home or the client’s, I focus on creating a routine that meets each pet’s unique needs—feeding, playtime, walks, or just companionship. With years of hands-on experience, I know how to make pets feel at ease, even in new surroundings. Their happiness and well-being are always my top priority.

About: Hello! My name is Bri! I love working with dogs and cats, and I have enjoyed my experience working with animals if all shapes and sizes here on Rover.

I also have experience administering medication to both dogs and cats. I currently own two cats, so I love cat sitting, as well! One of my most frequent clients is a Labrador Retriever (and a very good girl), so I am most comfortable with dogs of that size and smaller, but I am happy to discuss working with any breed. Our furry friends deserve the absolute best care and attention, and that is what I provide! I look to meeting you! I work full time (M-F, 9-5) in Alma, and I am free to care for your animals before and after work, from 12-1 on my lunch break, and over the weekend! I am happy to provide whatever services you need in your home. Because I have cats, I am unfortunately not able to bring dogs into my home, but I can be otherwise flexible regarding your needs!

About: I've always loved dogs of all sizes! I have been dog sitting for neighbors and friends and family for over 10 years! I have experience with senior dogs and puppies too!
