Cat Sitting in Shenandoah

“Rose gets 5 stars for reliability, flexibility with small changes, showing genuine caring, doing reasonable extra tasks when asked and especially communication. I felt my pets were safe in her care and that she would let me know if anything happened. I recommend her work without reservation and will surely hire her again at the next opportunity. Although there is no specific place on the rover app to talk about other pets than dogs and cats, Rose cared for our guinea pigs, hamster and chickens as well. No complaint.”

“Erik got the job done with our rather complex requirements, visiting the house twice a day. Would hire him again.”

About: I’ve worked with dogs professionally across different platforms; daycares, shelters, and a training facility. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments; I’ve yet to be scared off by a dog! Not every dog loves strangers but I’m dedicated to putting in the effort to gain their trust. My schedule is pretty open, so I’m happy to watch your dog whenever you need. Whether it’s a regular appointment or the odd drop-in as your schedule changes, I’m happy to help! I have a partially fenced in yard and two dogs of my own. Birdie loves to play with other dogs but is reactive at first so she requires a slow introduction. Once she knows a dog, she’ll play as much as her friend will let her! Luna, however, is not exactly a social butterfly. She can coexist peacefully with other dogs but would rather not play with them. My girls are not great playmates for every dog, and that’s okay! Some dogs prefer human friends and others prefer a specific quality in their doggy friends that my girls may not have; no worries! My main goal is always for your dog(s) to have a great time with me. If they prefer a structured or training based walk, we can do that. Some dogs like the freedom of a long leash walk, and we can do that too. Others like to throw a ball, and that works too! Whatever will get your dog the most excited is what we’ll do (within reason, of course). I love to watch dogs be dogs. I’ve worked with several dogs that don’t trust people easily, and I’m dedicated to taking the time to gain their trust. I’ve worked with dogs with a couple of different special needs as well, so just let me know what specific care your dog needs and I’ll be sure to ask if I have any questions. My dog Birdie underwent a hind leg amputation a year ago and in my time at shelters I’ve assisted with surgery recovery with a handful of dogs. I’m known to pay attention to every little detail of the dogs in my care. If there are any changes in your dog’s behavior, I will let you know immediately. I truly come to love every dog like my own, and I can’t wait to meet my new friends!

“Deirdre was wonderful. The pups were all fed and taken outside. Eased our mind and ability to enjoy our evening out. We would definitely use Deirdre again!”

“Lauren was so sweet with my two cats, both my diabetic old man and my younger “ornery” cat. She is responsible, communicative, and most of all, caring. I would highly recommend Lauren for any pet sitting position, and I know my boys look forward to seeing her again”

Sandra Z.

“Veronica was wonderful with our two cats. I would recommend her to anyone and would use her services again anytime. It was the first time I used a sitter, and it worked out perfectly”

Laura G.

“Amanda was great with Chewy! He did not make it easy on her and yet she preserved! She is awesome and we would definitely recommend her and will use her again!”

“It was such a great decision to have Gladys and Liani take care of our cats! They proved to be extremely responsive, reliable, and punctual. When there was a car accident along the way, Gladys even checked in to let us know they would be a few minutes late. What really made Gladys and Liani stand apart from other sitters was their enthusiasm. It didn't seem like taking care of pets is just a job -- it seems that they genuinely love animals. Separately, while others made the initial scheduling process overly complicated, it was really easy to arrange everything with Gladys. Gladys and Liani earned our highest recommendation!”

“Jessie was a fantastic cat sitter. My cats are very shy but they warmed up to her quickly! I’m so grateful for the peace of mind that she brought while I was traveling. I’ll definitely book again!”

Samantha S.

“Stephen is amazing! He’s well-versed with large breeds, and we were so happy to find someone experienced who Bowser absolutely loves walking with. He’s always punctual, and after just two walks, Bowser is already so excited to see him! It’s hard to find someone you can truly trust with your dog, and Stephen is definitely that person. Highly recommend!”

Misbah A.

“Natalie is the best! She is kind, on-time, and sent photos throughout the entire process. I felt confident leaving my pets & home in Natalie's care. Will definitely book her for my next vacation, and you should too!”

Dominique S.

“Barbara was very kind and sweet to my Daisy. She even bought her a new toy and played with her and send pictures everyday. My house was clean and her litter box was clean she was very well taken care of and I recommend her highly!”

About: Hi!, I’ve been caring for animals my whole life. I’m a proud pet parent to a cat and a dog, and I’ve cared for newborn kittens—so I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and energy levels. I treat every animal like family and will make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Since I’m currently not working, I have wide-open availability Monday through Friday from 10 AM to 8 PM—so your pet will get my full attention and care throughout the day. I have a very friendly dog and a cat that have both been vaccinated and treated for ticks and fleas and a large fenced backyard.

“Thank you so much!! You are so awesome!! Can't wait for next week!!”

“Maritza was great with my cat, Riley. She took time to meet Riley and get an idea of her daily routine. She provided daily updates with tons of photos and videos and a description of how Riley was during each visit. Maritza was very respectful throughout the process and provided me with a sense of ease knowing my cat was in good hands while I was away. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for pet sitting services! Thank you!”

About: I have taken car of dogs of all sizes for almost my entire life and look forward to providing a great service to you. I am trustworthy reliable and capable. I am currently semi retired and my schedule is pretty open. While I like to plan my days and weeks, I am also able to pivot and give you support with short notice. When caring for your pets, I would provide more Ethan just the basics. I enjoy interacting with your pets so they have that critical social time while their parents are out and about.

About: Pet owner all my life. Enjoy taking long walks with dogs. Will give lots of pets and cuddles. And of course fresh food and water. Thank you. Good availability right now- this is my part time income. Looking to pet sit when the kids are in school, mornings and afternoons, but flexible with exact timing. Have dog and cat sat for many friends and neighbors. Our cat is a big part of our family. He greets us when we come home and likes to snuggle on the coach during family time. Plus gets fed on demand and lots of naps. I will treat your pet with love and follow all directions.
