Top rated Rome cat sitters
“Keri is the best!!! She always exceeded my expectations. She truly cares for my cats. And I feel my cat did not miss me at all LOL because she filled them with care and love. I will book her in the future.”
“Emily is simply the best. She really is a cat person who will care for your kitties just like you would (if not better!). I can always travel easy knowing she's the one watching my Sasha.”
“She was a great person to come see my cats. I'd call myself and pets on the higher maintenance type of situation and she was able to hand it all like a champ. She had to medicate 2 of them and was successful, spending how ever much time she needed to get them to take their meds. Very communicative and able to follow directions!”
“Izzy did great! Always kept me updated on my cat and made sure to send plenty of pictures! My cat can be a little picky with people, but he really seemed to enjoy her company!!”
“Erin was fabulous! From the beginning she was warm and welcoming. She was very comfortable giving medicine to my cat and making sure she had everything she needed. I will book her time I travel for vacation or work travel!”
“I had such a positive experience with Kara ! From the moment we connected, she was responsive, professional, and genuinely kind. Kara took excellent care of my cat, following instructions and sending lots of adorable photos that gave me peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her !”
“Regan is a wonderful pet sitter. He did drop in visits for us and was great at communicating with us and giving us updates. He took great care of our rabbit and everything was so clean when we got home. He took in our mail which was totally above and beyond. Absolutely booking with Regan again.”
“Patricia helped me out on very short notice, which was a great relief even before she began care. She provided care based on written communication, without our having opportunity to do a meet and greet. This was a first for me and my 70-pound, highly energetic dog. She pulled it off in exemplary fashion, as far as I can tell (my dog is alive and well!). She was punctual enough and, between my instructions and her intuition, there was hardly a hitch. I think you and your dog will be in very good hands.”
“Heather is an exceptional cat sitter!! Our fur babies are in the best hands with Heather. She followed every protocol to a T and made sure our cat with food allergies ate her special food during the visit. Heather also washed our water and food bowls, which I’m sure the cats appreciated. (I did, too!!!) Heather is technology competent. Previous sitters have misunderstood our mechanical litter robot/home alarm system, but Heather immediately “got it.” Finally Heather’s prices are very reasonable. She really truly loves cats and enjoys spending time with her clients. 10/5 stars!”
About: Hi! Hablo inglés y español. I work part time and spend the rest of the time adventuring with my toddler. I'm looking to spend time with and care for dogs, and as a former dog owner I know how hard it can be to find a good sitter. After I spent 3 years caring for a dog with a chronic illness, I am accustomed to all sorts of needs and am happy to accommodate them. I have also lived with and cared for a senior dog and I can work with dogs of all ages. I will only take one dog at a time, unless they are from the same family. I have a small yard and good neighborhood for walks, so can be active with your dog or let them spend the day sitting on my lap! Let me know if you have any questions! I work part time in the community. Since I make my own schedule, I can be flexible to accommodate your dog’s needs! My toddler also loves dogs. I have a yard and a home with plenty of space for dogs to roam. Dogs will be monitored at all times and all medicines, cleaning supplies, etc. are safely stored. If your dog uses a crate, that is also welcome but not necessary. I will only take one dog at a time.
About: My husband and I have grown up with dogs and cats our entire lives. We love animals and helping out fellow animal lovers. I have experience administering insulin to diabetic animals, feeding/watering and walking. I currently work only 3 days a week and my husband works from home full-time giving us plenty of time to spend with your furry friends! Currently I work 3 days a week at a hospital in Ann Arbor but do not have a set schedule. My husband works from home full-time Pets are allowed on furniture and the bed in our home. Our yard is fenced, allowing for ample playtime outside. We currently have a 2 year old dog of our own and a 4 year old cat that is very dog friendly.
“Kristine was so great with my cat Sushi! She helped him with his electronic water bowl that fell over and was very sweet to him. Thank you so much and will ask again in the future! :)”
“Carly watched my cat Raspy for a long weekend trip. My cat can definitely be picky on who he likes and he loved Carly! She did a great job and will definitely be using her in the future to watch Raspy!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life! I live in an area where there are trails to take walks on and a dog park to play at! My goal is to make sure that your pet is loved and taken care of during your time away from them! I work at a full time job, but I am off at a decent time and have plenty of time during the weekends to play, walk, and take care of your fur baby! I make sure that I get up in time to make sure that I can give about 30 minutes of play before work and that they are fed in a timely manner.
About: I’ve cared for furbabies of mine and others’ since I was a little girl. My family had a small farm and we have always cared for animals. Snakes and chickens too! Animals are gifts to this world, and I’m honored with the opportunity to spend more time with them. I’m currently self-employed, so have plenty of time to work around your schedule and your furbabies needs. I live a very active lifestyle and happy to being your pet with me to the woods or on a walk to the park. If you have special requests I’m happy to help! I offer daycare at my home and sleepovers for pets in my/your home. I live in a quiet neighborhood with a big back yard, near the river and lots of room to play!
About: I have worked at a doggy daycare before. I shadowed a vet. I have my own dog, Nash, who is a Siberian Husky. I’ve dealt with meds, food schedules, and much more. I’m a Pre-Vet college student and work part time, so this is just a means to make extra money. I figured it would be fun because who doesn’t love meeting new pups? I have a dog who LOVES to play with others. He is a Siberian Husky, so he will def wear them out! Haha. He also has plenty of toys to share!
