Cat Sitting in Rollingwood

“Yasmin is outstanding! I have a high maintenance and shy Cat and she went above and beyond to take care of her. I feel relieved to find someone that loves my cat so much. ❤️”

“Cyndi was such a big help when my husband and I got a new puppy. She came over twice a week for two weeks to help us give him lunch and provide some snuggles and play time. Cyndi does a great job of updating you with photos and a summary of the time she spent with our pets. She also provides a lot of great information and feedback if you have questions about a veterinarian or food products/toys. Overall, she did a lovely job and we will definitely be using her for future puppy needs?”

“Lauri brings a wealth of knowledge about dogs and dog training to her care. She has great insights into our little anxious/hyper pup, and he thinks she's great.”

About: I have been lucky enough to provide care to clients and their pets for the last 10 years. I have fostered, facilitated adoptions, and coordinated care beyond boarding and daycare and enjoy the complex and companionable nature of the industry. I work from home and am available to provide round the clock care. A typical day begins with drop off in my yard between 7-9am and pick up from 4-7pm M-F but with some coordinating I am flexible depending on your needs. I have a three bedroom home, a fully fenced in yard, and very dog friendly furniture. The vibe is very much relaxed, fun, and spacious. Dogs are fed separately and ideally are crated at night.

“Jasmarie did such a great job with my nervous fella. In each photo, his ears were up and his tail wagging; he doesn't do that with everyone. And this was a change in pet sitters while I was away. I trust her in my home and recommend her to anyone with a critter that they love.”

About: I’ve grown up with lots of pets and currently have four cats and a dog at home, so being around animals has always been a big part of my life. As a UC Davis student, I have the flexibility to spend quality time with pets and give them the attention they need. I love spending time with animals of any age and make sure to follow their routines and any special instructions, so they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. Caring for animals is something I’m passionate about, and I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive care every time. I also think that spending time caring for animals is a great way for me, as a college student, to get out of my apartment and do something healthy and fulfilling. I’m a UC Davis student working part-time, so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m usually available most evenings and weekends, and I also have gaps during the day when I can stop by to hang out with your pets. I like to make sure pets get plenty of attention and playtime, and I’m happy to work around your schedule to help however I can. I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable. I follow any instructions you give me and keep a close eye on your pets so they’re happy and relaxed. Having grown up with lots of animals, I know how important it is to create a clean, calm space where pets feel at ease. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel cared for and comfortable.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my combination of experience, patience, and specialized skills. My approach is always personalized, ensuring your pet feels at ease and receives the best care tailored to their needs! I always prioritize their needs, adjusting my day to include regular feedings, exercise, and mental stimulation. For me, pet care is more than just a job—it’s a lifestyle! When caring for pets in my home, I create a cozy and safe environment tailored to their needs. I have a plenty of free space in my backyard for them to roam around.

About: I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats since birth and have spent my whole life building a deep understanding of animal behavior and care. Growing up, my family raised two litters of puppies, giving me hands-on experience with everything from newborn care to socialization and training throughout various life stages. I currently share my home with three dogs of my own and regularly care for friends' cats and dogs, both in my home and theirs. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes, from small lap dogs to large breeds, and know that each comes with its own personality, energy level, and needs. People tell me I'm not just a dog person but also someone dogs are drawn to. Cats have been a constant in my life just as long as dogs have. I know how to read their cues, respect their space, and earn their trust on their own terms. I genuinely love every stage of a pet's life and know how to meet each animal where they are, whether that's an energetic puppy, a curious cat, or a laid-back senior. I’ve worked in human crisis intervention for over 6 years, which means I stay calm under pressure and know how to respond quickly and clearly when something unexpected happens. That same steady, caring approach is what I bring to every pet I look after. I do Rover to supplement my nonprofit career, so when I take on your pet it's because I genuinely want to be here, not because I have to be. Your pet won't just be cared for, they'll feel right at home! I work from home on a flexible schedule that I set myself, which means I'm present with your pet throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long stretches. We have a fenced yard for outdoor time and can separate pets as needed, so your animal has a safe, comfortable space even with my own dogs in the home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I treat every pet like they're my own. My home is pet-proofed with a fenced yard, and I can separate animals as needed so everyone has their own safe space alongside my own dogs. I always want to know your pet's routine, quirks, and preferences ahead of time so I can keep things as normal and comfortable as possible for them. With a lifetime of experience with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes, I'm confident handling whatever comes up, and my crisis intervention background means I stay calm and act fast if an emergency arises.

“Sofia is a great sitter! She was able to watch our cat for a long weekend trip with less than a week notice, for which we are very grateful! She goes the extra mile even though our kitty isn’t very social. She even left us peaches from her family’s orchard!”

Gillian I.

“Carrie was our first experience with Rover. It was obvious, when meeting our cat for the first time, that Carrie made a special connection with our cat. She paid attention to the instructions we left for her to follow, and helped us feel confident in our selection, especially with daily photos and postings of our cat. We are totally pleased with Carrie and the wonderful care she provided for Ms Mimi. Mimi and her parents look forward to the opportunity to using her services in the future.”

Cynthia P.

“Patricia was great with my two cats! Even though it was her first visit, both of my indoor kitties came out and greeted her. My senior cat, Juliet, who only likes me and my daughter, actually came out to say hi to Patricia! She truly is a cat person and will take good care of your fur babies. I’m sure I will be booking her again!”

Diane C.

“He was really great with my cat Bud! He hasn't met too many people yet but they got along well !”

About: I have been an animal lover since I was little. I grew up on a ranch taking care of cats, dogs, rabbits, birds, horses, pigs, and poultry. I have been a cat and dog foster for 3 years. I have fostered a variety of dogs, from small cuddle loving chihuahuas to high energy pit bulls. I have fostered puppies and kittens and am comfortable with preparing puppy/kitten food, administering medication, and cleaning up all messes. I have 1 dog and 4 cats of my own. My oldest cat is a 16 year old senior, so I am very familiar with senior needs around feeding and medication. I am currently a fulltime social work master's student on break for the summer, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I make sure to update my availability regularly. Shoot me a message and we can hopefully work something out! I understand how nerve wracking it can be to leave a loved member of the family with someone unfamiliar. I make sure everyone gets lots of pets and attention. I will treat your babies with as much love and care as I treat my own! I will make sure lots of pictures are taken and that communication is reliable and steady.

“Melissa is a great cat sitter. She clearly cares a lot about animals and has an intuitive sense of caring for them. She rolled with the punches taking care of my indoor/outdoor cat, which comes with some quirks. She was always on time; and always very communicative. I’d feel great leaving her in charge of friendly again!”

Lesley W.

“Thanks for the drop-in dog care during our long weekend away. Tania had very good communication, sent photos and all went very well. Lucy was a happy dog when we got back!”
