Cat Sitting in Rome

“Emily is *wonderful.* I needed someone to drop in on my two cats to feed them (and make sure they weren’t fighting, one is new and we’re still adjusting) and Emily was so consistent with when she came to feed them and very communicative about problems and questions she had during her visits. I highly recommend her ?”

“Trista took great care of our older boy cats including giving one of them medication and scooping their litter. She also remembered little extras like bringing in our mail. We really appreciate her help and will use her again in the future!”

“Sara is the best. She made sure Etta was cared for and loved while we were gone. She’s highly recommended. It’s wonderful to know we found someone that takes our mind off of leaving not just a pet but a family member and she is taking care of properly until we returned.”

“Thank you for keeping me updated during your visits. We appreciate the time you took for the meet and greet, and for your warm and friendly demeanor towards Chief. You were so responsive to our questions and messages 😁”

“l was at first very nervous about hiring a cat sitter for my two cats that I had not met before I was leaving for vacation. But Tyler came to my house the day I was leaving to meet me and my two cats. He was very friendly, paid close attention to the directions I was giving and seemed very interested in doing a good job for my guys. And he did. I was very pleased with the care he gave my pets and will hire him again that's for sure”

About: I have been taking care of animals since childhood and would often pet sit for family members, some of which were entire farms for a week at a time.

I currently have an almost 5 years old Australian cattle dog (very friendly w/ other dogs) and also live on a hobby farm.

About: I have taken care of various animals since I was a young girl. I was born and raised on a dairy farm in upstate NY where I have helped train and raised many different kinds of animals including horses, cows, dogs, pigs, bunnies, cats, goats, and more. Neighbors friends family have all relied on me to feed bathe and walk their most precious animals without any problems. I am a stay at home mom & and care for animals as my full time job. I spend most of my time at home other than going to the store or my kids games for school. I am able to give your fur baby the best care possible to ensure they are appropriately cared for and loved as they should be through out their stay at my home. My first priority is keeping your fury friend safe and then they will be also be happy. I want your pet to feel at home when they are at my house. Depending on the service you request and the need for your specific animal this will vary. Each animal will have it's own individualized plan agreed upon with the animals owner.

English I have a yard with enough space to run, play and relax outside with me and my kids they will be in good hands

About: I am genuine 'Cat Person'. I have always adored kitties, and they can recognize it too. (As every cat person knows) I have had probably 30 cats (more if I count litters of kittens, of which I frequently kept 1) over my lifetime, usually at least 2 or 3 at the same time, and up to as many as 6. But since my last best friend passed away several years ago, where I've lived since wasn't safe for kitties for one reason or another, so I haven't been able to have any for far too long. And I miss them more than words can say. So, I'm looking to meet some new feline friends to give my attention and affection to here on Rover! And I will love your kitties too, and give them the same loving kindness, attention and tender care ~ and be a new playmate for them if they want to ~ just as if they were my very own. I just really love cats, every one of them I've ever met. I look forward to meeting yours too! ❤️ Since I've retired, other than watching my precious grand daughter for her mommy and daddy, my time is really all my own. So spending as much time as they need me too with your beloved kitties will never be an issue. Everything that cats require for their care and attention, cleaning liter boxes as well as food and water bowls as needed. Brushing their fur (but only if they want me to of course), lots of petting and giving them all the attention and affection they could possibly want. Which I'll love doing too!

About: I’ve been caring for my own cats and chinchillas since I was 11. I used to walk dogs when I was younger simply for the fun of it and have handled a variety of pets, from rabbits, guinea pigs, chihuahuas to english mastiffs. I’m a baby LVT and freshly graduated Bachelors student from Delhi’s veterinary technology program. I have experience with medicating pets whether it be a pill, ointment, etc, especially by myself. I have performed intramuscular and SQ injections, and with IV as well. I love meeting new pets + their owners, and getting more and more experience with varying ages and breeds. I also took BOCES during high school, and have experience with grooming, nail trimming and ear cleaning. I simply have fun with it because I love animals, and keep organized notes to ensure I remember everything specific for pets as I thrive best on details and structure. That being said I have not used Rover much and only temporarily ever open my account if I have a break. So please bear with me! :) Now that I’ve graduated, I’m taking a short break from working to enjoy my summer off. This frees up my time entirely aside from any dates marked in my calendar that I’m unavailable. I may have plans here or there but I can work around them to still drop in and do visits however many times best for your pets! It gets me out of the house :) I have so much experience with my own very mischievous pets. Animal safety and comfort is a big priority to me and I will always take an owners notes to heart about a pet, I will write things down. Whether it be feeding routines, exercise, precautions on habits (like chewing cords, my cats are very guilty of this). I would expect a clients home to be pet proofed to the best extent they can offer, but I have great hearing for small sounds and if I pick up on any suspicious I will immediately check it out incase a pet is doing something they aren’t supposed to. I’ve seen and heard a few horror stories about foreign bodies, and emergency trips so I try to be very thorough with pet safety.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since a young age. I can feed, walk, bathe and give them all the love and attention they need and want I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have a bunch of free time to come and take care of your pets! I am very flexible - you just let me know the times and days you need me to care for your fur baby, and I will do my best to do just that! I have a yard where your dog can run around in with my other two dogs. I have a golden doodle who is so lovey and playful, and a jack Russell. They both love to play and make new friends.

“Prompt communication, sent Rover cards with multiple pictures that helped us keep tabs on our furry friends.”

I have over 20 years of experience with dogs, cats, chickens, small mammals, horses, birds and reptiles. I have experience with dog walking, feeding and watering, administering medications, and training puppes. I have been volunteering at animal shelters for over 10 years. I have had pets such as dogs, cats and small mammals for over 25 years. References can be provided upon request. I work full-time from home in Taberg, NY, so I can do drop-in visits or walks in the Camden/Rome/Utica area on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. I am available other weekdays upon request.

I can also take dogs on walks or provide general attention and check-ins whenever required. I have a strict no-human-food policy for pets.

“If I could leave 10 stars I would! Kyliegh is great with Dallas. I was very stressed about finding someone to walk him and spend some time with him while I work but Kyliegh has made all of those fears disappear. Dallas can be difficult and at times even intimidating but she didn’t give up and made sure she did all she could to make Dallas comfortable. I would highly recommend Kyliegh! I have 0 complaints!”

About: I have extensive experience caring for pets at every stage of life. I’ve been caring for pets since I was 5 years old, starting with my first cat, Rosie, and over time I’ve gained hands-on experience with both kittens and senior cats. I’ve raised four kittens (three rescues) myself, so I’m very familiar with the patience, attention, and consistency needed for young pets. Additionally, I have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs, through the care of my own pups and friends’. I have lots of experience caring for senior pets, including administering medications, managing special diets, and assisting with more advanced care such as subcutaneous (IV) fluids. Because of this, I’m very attentive to changes in behavior or health and can provide a higher level of care for pets with medical needs. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize their comfort, safety, and overall well-being. I work as a Medical Assistant full time on weekdays from 8 AM to 4:30 PM, but my evenings and weekends are wide open, giving me plenty of flexibility to care for pets. I’m based in Utica and am happy to travel as needed for drop-in visits, walks, or longer stays. This schedule allows me to provide consistent, reliable care while being attentive to pets’ needs. I provide care either in my pet-friendly, secure residence (keycard access) or in the client’s home, depending on their needs. I am flexible and attentive to any special requests, and I have experience caring for pets with medical needs, including administering medications and managing special diets. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities.
