Top rated Saint Joseph cat sitters

“Summer went WAY above and beyond when at a time when our cats were incredibly high maintenance. She was a great communicator, and showed compassion for our cats (and for my husband and I on our honeymoon)!”


“Cindy is always fantastic with my cat, Nutmeg! She is easy to communicate with, sends photos and videos, and will even bring some toys from home for playtime. I always trust that Nutmeg is being well taken care of, and she is always calm and happy when I return from a trip. Don't hesitate to book with Cindy!!”


“Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. So glad we found you on the rover.com site. Very painless for the entire process. We have zero concerns using Michelle again.”


“Thanks for looking in on Callie and accommodating time changes when we got a late start. Appreciate your responsiveness and the pictures during the drop-ins.”


“Elizabeth took excellent care of our cats! She even had to deal with a power outage and was a trooper thru that. Also, our one cat is afraid of thunder and she calmed her down nicely and gave her the love to get her thru it! Highly recommend!”


“Lucy was very accommodating on our trip. Our little boy decided to stop eating and she went above and beyond to make sure he was eating. We even added an extra last minute visit. This is the 3rd time she has watched our pets while we were away and we will continue to use her!”


“Casey did an outstanding job taking care of our cat! Her communication through detailed messages and pictures was the best we have ever had. Our cat responded very positively to her. Casey was outstanding and I highly recommend her.”


“Maegan was so attentive and great to our cat. She followed directions and my cat loved the attention! My cat requires an oral medication and Maegan was able to give her medicine while I was gone. Maegan also was so considerate and brought in our mail/packages. We will be using her again!”


“Thomye took great care of our IzBiz while we were away. Being a senior pup, it's hard to uproot them just for a night away. Thomye was absolutely perfect with her. She took time to play and even hand fed her to ensure she ate her food. Thomye took all the extra time and care and we are forever grateful that we found her. She will definitely be our go-to when we need someone for our old lady.”


“We’ve had Scott drop in for visits and meals for our cat, Rocco and recommend him! He is easy to communicate with, takes good care of our cat and has even brought in some packages for us that arrived while we were away.”


About: I’ve been pet sitting for a few animals on multiple occasions. I can sit for cats and dogs at the same time. I love playing with animals and treat them like my own. I am full time college student but would be able to accommodate most pet sittings. I have a car and would easily be able to house sit! I spend lots of time with the animals I take care of. I can walk them, bathe them, play with them, and more! I have a pup of my own who is very loved. I also can do small household tasks such as cleaning, taking out trash, watering plants, and getting the mail.

About: My name is Sydney and i’m 20 years old. I’ve been taking care of Dogs and Cats for the last 5 years. I also have a big dog of my own. I love being able to help families or individuals when needed! I am in school currently, but I do have a couple days a weeks that i’m not busy. I am available after 6:00 on Fridays, but Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays are the best for me! I have a Pitt Bull mix as a family pet currently. We have had him since he was a puppy and have private training sessions every other week. He is a snuggle bug and loves his people! The past 5 years I have watched houses with a mix of dogs and cats, as well as some small pets. I follow the schedules that owners have for me. Everyone is different and has different expectations for their pets and home. I love everyone else pets like they are my own!

About: I grew up with pugs and treated them like my kids — Bruce, Tobias, and Otto were my world. I’ve cared for senior dogs, playful puppies, and even dogs with special needs. Now living in the U.S. and missing my own pup back in Brazil, I’d love to share all my love and experience with your furry friend. I’ll treat your dog like family — with patience, affection, and lots of belly rubs! I recently moved from Brazil to support my husband’s new job, so I’m currently taking some time off from work. That means I have plenty of time — and love — to give your pup! I’m available in the mornings, afternoons, and early evenings, until the sun sets. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every dog as if they were my own — with love, patience, and attention to their unique needs. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine, I always make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved. I follow routines closely, respect your rules, and create a calm, cozy environment where pets can truly feel at home.

“Celia was amazing! She responded quick and was very accommodating for my pets that I have; even being willing to feed my guineapig since I couldn't add her as a pet in this app. I would highly recommend her 😊”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs since about the age of 11, when my neighbors would hire me to watch their dog when they would go away on vacations. As I got older my client list grew through word of mouth recommendations. I’ve worked in both veterinary clinics and animist shelters/rescue as a trained veterinary assistant. I am comfortable with giving medications and other medical issues. I love play time and going for walks! I am currently self employed so my schedule is flexible, however weekends I am away from morning to early-mid afternoon. My weekends open up in November. Weekdays I am able to change my schedule as needed to fit in any of your animal needs. I am not able to care for animals in my own home. I have a let of my own that does not like other pets in the home.

“I am so glad we were able to book with Siobhan! We had an amazing & worry free trip knowing our fur baby was well taken care of. We enjoyed the updates and pictures as well as the detailed reports during her visits. She followed all our requests and went above and beyond to make our boy feel comfortable and keep his schedule as routine as possible! Having a dog on medication from stress induced diagnosis, traveling is always scary and stressful. Our boy was so comfortable, secure, happy, and calm with Siobhan around. 10/10 recommend for all our pets needs and we will absolutely rebook for our next trips. 🩷”


About: I have walked dogs at the animal shelter. I have trained my own dog and cat. I have had many different animals as pets and I love them all. I am available during the week everyday my schedule is flexible. I do have children in school that I would have to work around but still flexible. I'm not boarding in my home. I would follow whatever you need done for your pet. Meds, play, cuddle, feed, walk, whatever is needed to care for them while you are gone.

About: Hi! I grew up on a farm surrounded by animals of all kinds, from chickens and goats to cats and dogs. That experience gave me a deep love and understanding of animals—especially dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve cared for everything from small breeds to large dogs like Rottweilers and St. Bernards. I’m comfortable managing dog behavior, including handling conflicts or working with sassy, high-energy pups. Animals tend to gravitate toward me, and I always prioritize their safety, happiness, and comfort. I’d love the chance to give your dog the care and attention they deserve! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Even with a full-time job from 9–6, I prioritize animal care in the evenings and on weekends. I spend time feeding, grooming, playing, and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. It’s something I genuinely enjoy and make time for every day. I take pet care seriously, whether it’s in my home or a client’s. At home, I have cats who are indoor-only for their safety, and I make sure they’re always well-fed, have fresh water, and stay entertained—even when I’m away. I adopted a second cat so my older one wouldn’t feel lonely, and I provide stimulating toys, grooming, regular nail trims, and even play cat-friendly videos on the TV to keep them engaged. I bring that same level of attention, care, and respect for routines when looking after pets in a client’s home.

About: Since the age of 5 my family has always had more than one dog. I have experience taking care of different breeds, personalities, and dogs with special needs. Other than taking care of my own dogs, neighbors and family friends have trusted me to walk, feed, play, and bathe their pets. I have experience with large dogs, small dogs, and elderly dogs that require special care. I also have lots of experience caring for cats. I am currently working part-time so I have lots of free time! Currently I only have one dog so I feed him at scheduled times, brush him daily, and I am active so I take him on frequent walks. I have plenty of time to care for your dog and take them on walks alone or with companions. While caring for your pet in your home I will make sure they have lots of outside time, meals on time, and make sure they stay occupied! I also can bathe and brush them. I make sure that their paws are clean before coming in the house and tidy up before I leave.

About: I've watched and owned not only a German Shepherd for over 15 years, but also cared for exotic animals, such as F1 Savannahs throughout the duration of my life. I just recently retired from the Army summer of 2023. I'm kind of bored and would love to keep myself busy doing something I love. I own a single family home with a small backyard that your fur baby can have access to. With less than a mile if requested I can walk your dog to the dog park.

Crista E.
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience. Crista was warm, attentive, and clearly experienced with pups who have big personalities in small, fluffy packages. While we were gone our dogs got plenty of playtime, cuddles, and love, just like they would at home. It’s such a relief to know our fur babies are not only safe but genuinely cared for. We came home to two happy, relaxed, and very well-snuggled dogs. We highly recommend this sitter to anyone looking for someone who truly treats your dogs like family.”


Alondra L.
“Alondra has always been amazing with animals. Ever since we were kids growing up on the farm, she was the one who took the best care of all our pets. She was always the first to notice if something was wrong or if an animal needed extra attention. Whether it was dogs, cats, or even goats and chickens, she had a way of making them feel calm and cared for. Now she has two cats of her own, and honestly, they live a better life than most people. She’s such a good cat mom. She keeps them entertained, plays with them, grooms them, and even gives one of them his inhaler when he needs it. You can tell how much she loves them, and they love her right back. If you need someone to take care of your pet, you won’t find anyone more responsible or loving than Alondra. She treats every animal like family.”


Melayna E.
“Melayna is a very caring attentive person to my big guy, Kai. She is great with big dogs, Kai is a 100 pound doberman. I was nervous about leaving him with just anyone but my Melayna went above and beyond for Kai. He loves to see her and can’t wait to play with her. She’s the best pet sitter we’ve ever had. I will be using Melanya again!!! She is my new go to sitter, very responsible and listens to how you want your pet cared for!! 💕”


Delmar L.
“Delmar is the most loving/caring pet caregiver there is. He watched my fur baby & she came back 10x more spoiled as ever! He treated my fur baby as if it was his own. He’s def my go to pet setter!”

Lucy is great. Second time that she took care of our cat (Sal) and checked on our house while we traveled. Sal loves her and everything was in order in the house.

Celia was amazing! She responded quick and was very accommodating for my pets that I have; even being willing to feed my guineapig since I couldn't add her as a pet in this app. I would highly recommend her 😊

Summer went WAY above and beyond when at a time when our cats were incredibly high maintenance. She was a great communicator, and showed compassion for our cats (and for my husband and I on our honeymoon)!

We’re always so grateful for Michelle’s care of our shy cat — she’s great at following the care sheet and letting us know how things are going. It’s always such a weight of our minds when we’re traveling. Thank you, Michelle!!!

Great work! Got around to all the food (3) and water (5) bowls and even cleaned litter without me asking. Communicated her schedule changes and was persistent trying to give my shy boy attention. Will book her again!
