Cat Sitting Riverwood

About: Hi! My name is Sage, and I have around 4 years of experience caring for both cats and dogs. I worked at a dog and cat grooming salon for 3 years, volunteered at an animal shelter for a year, and have also spent about 6 months housesitting and caring for pets for multiple families. I have experience with pets of all ages, from puppies and kittens to senior animals. I’m comfortable helping with special needs, including giving medications and taking dogs to the park. I also have reliable transportation and am happy to accommodate your pet’s specific needs. Thanks for your consideration! I currently have an open schedule and reliable transportation, which provides lots of flexibility to meet your dogs’ specific needs! I prefer morning-late afternoon, but am also open to occasional evening care. When caring for dogs in their own homes, I make sure to look out for body language cues, and ensure they feel safe and comfortable.

“There aren’t enough stars to convey how positive I feel about Sydney and the care she provided for my two kitties. Sydney is THE BEST!! This is the first time I’ve left my two cats in someone else’s care and actually relaxed & didn’t worry the whole time!! Both kitties warmed up to Sydney. (Even my very shy little girl, Maizie,) at our Meet& Greet. It was clear to me that Sydney loves cats and loves her job🧡🧡🧡 We had great communication & she kindly put up with my multiple questions and endless list of notes I left for her. !! I would easily leave her 10 STARS if allowed. Sydney is a true gem & I probably never leave town again unless she’s available to care for Meekowitz & Maizie😽. She’s that good‼️🐈‍⬛🐾🐈”

“J Does a great job with my pup and yesterday was super helpful because she drilled him on his commands and helped get some kongs prepped. J is reliable and communicates well.”

Marla K.

“If you are looking for someone who is caring and experienced, look no further; Lucinda has been such a blessing to my senior, blind, fur baby. She takes her time respecting your pet so that they can get to know each other, which demonstrates her star sitter commitment. I have felt at ease knowing that my fur baby is well taken care of and have appreciated her kind hearted nature 🥹 Thank you Lucinda!”

“Allison was absolutely FANTASTIC with Ollie. I love the communication and actually working with Ollie on his walks and manners. Would 10/10 recommend and will be booking with her again!”

“Kaylee was amazing! She spent time with our kitties, played with them, fed them, and even gave them treats that her cat didn’t love. She was a clear communicator and reliable! We’d have her watch our cats any time!”

Phylicia C.

“I’ve used Karly now three times as my cat-sitter while away to take care of my two cats, and just recently, for two weeks while out of the country. She’s great!! She makes sure my two babies are well taken care of - she’s gotten to know both of their personalities and tends to both of their needs (one’s playfulness and the other’s snuggles/pets)! She goes above and beyond and also considers me and the house while gone out of the country (by taking out the trash on trash day for example). She’s also a great communicator and I feel at ease trusting her to take care of both my cats and my home while away!”

Molly C.

“We could not ask for a better more caring person to walk our puppy. Veronica has great communication, is so compassionate, and a breeze to work with.”

About: Hi, I’m Ellie! I’ve always been the kind of person at a get together who ends up hanging out with the animals. Since middle school, I’ve cared for pets while their owners were away, and over the years that’s grown into friends, family, neighbors, and coworkers trusting me with their pets, homes, and plants. I’ve been around animals my whole life and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. You can also expect regular updates while you’re away—and probably a few silly photos of your pet along the way. I work full-time Monday through Friday and live close to my workplace, which gives me flexibility to care for pets before and after work. Whether it's an early morning visit, or spending time with pets in the evenings, I’m happy to fit pet care into my routine. For longer-term or more involved care, I’m always open to discussing scheduling needs and finding a solution that works well for both you and your pet. When caring for a pet, I like to connect with the owner beforehand and, if possible, meet the pet as well. This helps me understand their routine, personality, specific care needs, and any special circumstances I should be aware of. I know that new people and environments can sometimes be stressful for pets, so I focus on creating a calm, comfortable, and welcoming experience. My goal is to help pets feel safe, cared for, and as relaxed as possible while maintaining the routines they're used to.

“We were so nervous about leaving our brand new puppy home for the first time while we went back to work. Megan came twice to feed and play with our two pups and was amazing and very communicative. Definitely recommend!”

Madeline M.

“Bry was great. She was attentive to our cats and was able to communicate with us any time. Maya and Ginger seem very comfortable with her.”

Gabriel M.

“Susan was great with my very anxious kitty, seemed like they immediately had a good rapport, was great that she was able to get him to play during their visits as he’s typically a suspicious guy. Thanks!”

Jeffrey V.

“This was my first time using Rover and a dog sitter, so I was a little nervous at first — but Kathy immediately put me at ease! She was warm, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs. My pups were relaxed and enjoyed their time with her. I appreciated the updates and photos she sent, which really helped me relax while I was away. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience — thank you, Kathy!”

Laura C.

“Victoria was wonderful with my cat, stopping by each evening to feed her. Lots of quality time to ensure the cat wasn’t too lonely. Great photographer, too! ?”

Robin H.

“Suzie did great with Karma. Karma has past trauma that causes her to be reactive with new people and Suzie's calm demeanor was just what Karma needed to feel safe.”
