Cat Sitting in Shingle Springs

“This was my first time using Rover. Riley came to meet us before we left on vacation, which was reassuring. It was nice to know we were in good hands! Riley always spent time with our cat, Lexi, even when Lexi was not being the best company! Riley is dependable and was great with Lexi!”

“Yang did a great job, cats looked and acted well-fed. I don’t think they missed us at all. Would definitely book with Yang again.”

“Amanda was great with our super shy kitty. He even came out of hiding! A first for any sitter we’ve had. I highly recommend Amanda. She’s kind, caring and attended to every detail. Thank you so much! Tracy & Taylor”

“Adrianne did a great job with our kitty! She responded right away when we reached out to her, came over for a meet and greet and was very professional. She took good care of our cat and gave us updates while we were gone.”

About: Hi! I’m Tarron — lifelong animal lover, rescue director, and experienced handler with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and medical needs and many other animals including cats, ducks, goats, bunnies. I’m the Executive Director of a nonprofit animal rescue and have extensive experience with: * rescue and anxious dogs * senior dogs * puppies * medication administration * decompression and slow introductions * leash handling and structured walks * dogs recovering from surgery/injury * reactive or fearful dogs I understand that every dog is different and I always prioritize safety, patience, structure, and making dogs feel comfortable and secure. Because I have animals of my own and run a rescue, I currently focus on: * drop-in visits * dog walking * medication visits * structured enrichment walks * pet transport/help with vet visits I’m especially comfortable with dogs that may need a little extra understanding or experience beyond a typical pet sitter/walker. Reliable, communicative, calm, and genuinely passionate about animal welfare. I currently work as a program manger for adults with special needs, and manage a small team of individuals. Mornings and evening are best. As well as Tuesdays, and weekends. I do not provide pet care in my own home at this time, but I will gladly come to yours and spend time with your fur babies!

“Justin is easy to work with and a great communicator. We appreciated that he got back to us right away to confirm his availability and provided twice daily updates on our dogs. We won’t hesitate to recommend him to our friends and neighbors. Thanks Justin!”

“This was our first experience using Rover.com, and we couldn't have been happier! Our sitter, Elaine, is terrific! Not only did she capture amazing pictures of our two Bengal cats, she even managed to win over Shiloh, who normally runs and hides under the bed whenever a stranger comes into our home. My husband and I could hardly believe our eyes when we watched the video of Shiloh letting Elaine pet her. It was nice, too, to come home to a clean and tidy area where the food dishes are as our cats always like dropping their food on the floor before eating. I highly recommend Elaine.”

“Sondra and Marius took great care of my pets. My dog has daily medication and they had no problem handling that. They even stayed a bit longer on one visit when they noticed my dog was more anxious than usual. I also have 2 cats that they were able to care for.”

“Mia was our cat's favorite buddy while we were on vacation. She followed instructions perfectly and communicated extremely well with us, answering questions as needed. We hope we will be able to work with Mia again in the future!”

About: Im so excited to be working for you! What a treat to be able to love on your beautiful babies! I enjoy pet sitting so much because just like people, animals have their own personalities and it’s really neat for me to discover them in all the little fur friends I get to meet. I am good natured and loving and your pet will notice that right off the bat. I’m caring and compassionate and you won’t have to worry about your babies while I am there. I enjoy overnight stays because I know it’s important for them to be “at home”. It’s easy for me to feel at home wherever I go! I have a kitty and he stays home and is very content with that. He is a super friendly 15 lb MainCoon that has a very sweet personality. He’s always up for belly rubs. He does not accompany me on any of my stays or visits. I have several families that aren’t on rover that I just love so much. So their reviews aren’t on here. But if you need references, please let me know. I’m grateful for the opportunity to hang out with your fur family and know that you can rest easy knowing they are in good hands, I am open to visits and check ins or even long weekends or vacations. It would be great to come to you. Take a vacation and relax knowing your home and sweet babies are being lovingly cared for. Unfortunately I am unable to board any pets at this time. I don’t have the needed space to accommodate them. Thank you so very much!

About: I've been a pet/house sitter for about 10 years, I started when I was a teenager helping my family friends and neighbors to now as an adult. I've grown up my whole life surrounded by animals and I couldn't imagine it any other way. Love connecting with the pets and fellow animal lovers! I do my sitting job full time so I'm available for more attentive care and easy contacting. I do house sit as well if you'd like me to stay with your pet overnight for a peace of mind and comfort of the animals. I don't like to overlap my jobs so that I can give each person and their pets my full attention and presence. I'm always very aware of animals boundaries and environment, wheather that is separate feeding or toy aggression. Taking any necessary walks or have play time to keep their energy and spirits up. Also, I always try to keep everything as you left it. I always clean up after myself and the animals if needed, I'm consistent with any schedule given, and I also give frequent updates including pictures of your pets so you know they're doing good!

“Ruth is awesome! She checked in on my pup twice a day this week and shared excellent updates and photos after each drop-in. Thanks so much, Ruth!”

“Samantha was extremely helpful with my dog and 2 cats. When it game to a meet and greet Samantha was very thorough and asked a lot of questions to ensure she didn’t miss anything. She was super consistent with timing, and had great communication, send pictures daily. She is someone I trust in my home.”

About: For the past 2.5 years, I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to sweet senior companions. My pet care experience has taught me that every animal has their own personality, needs, and routine, and I always take the time to understand and respect that. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding schedules, or simply providing comfort and companionship, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their family is away. I have a pretty open schedule, so I am flexible, I will try my best to update my account when I am away to let others know. I always make sure my animals usual rest areas are cleaned up and made comfortable for them. In someone else’s home it’s all about respecting a space that isn’t yours it’s theirs. Making them feel comfortable with you being in their space with them

“Sandrina was a pleasure to work with. I had some last minute changes to my booking that she was very flexible with. She was also very prompt with responses and communication. Greatly appreciated. The cats were in a great mood when I got home, so I know they were well taken care of.”

D M.

About: I grew up with 2 dogs and 2 cats always in the house. I deeply enjoy volunteering to walk and care for animals. I am a runner and can have dogs accompany me easily! During the school year I frequently walk dogs at the Portland Dog Rescue association up in Oregon. I have worked at the CSD in the recreational sports section , where I practiced time management, along with people/pet management. Overall, I love animals and am an extremely active person! My schedule is very flexible, I can accommodate any time or request. I'm free everyday day from 7am-10pm for walks and check-ins. I'm willing to work earlier or later upon request! I walk my own dog at least once a day for about an hour or so. I clean the litter box with diligence and love to give animals baths when they get dirty (bathing is needed most of the time after a trip to the dog park). At night I love to cuddle with my kitties and watch a movie.

About: Hi! I’m a stay-at-home mom of two little ones and a big animal lover. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life, and I have about 10 years of experience helping friends, family, and neighbors with their pets. I’ve provided in-home pet sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, and I’m comfortable with pets of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I understand that pets are family members, and I always try to make them feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. Since I’m home most of the day with my kids, I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. Whether your pet needs a walk, a quick check-in, or loving company while you’re gone, I’d be happy to help. I’m also looking to earn a little extra income for my family, and there’s no better way to do that than by spending time with furry friends. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Since I’m a stay-at-home mom with my little ones, I have a very flexible schedule and am often available throughout the day. In some cases, my children may come with me for drop-in visits or certain pet care tasks. They are gentle, respectful around animals, and have grown up around pets themselves, so they are very comfortable and calm with them. Our family loves animals, and we always treat every pet with kindness, patience, and care. When caring for pets, I always do my best to follow the routine and preferences discussed with their owner. I know how important consistency is for animals, so I aim to keep their feeding times, walks, playtime, and general care as close to their normal schedule as possible. My goal is to help them feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve grown up taking care of dogs, fish, and especially cats! I have training from the SPCA on dog walking, cat care, and some skill/behavioral training for both cats and dogs. I have 3 years of fish keeping experience. I currently have my own cat (he’s orange!) and I am fostering a mother and her kitten for the time being. I am willing to help clean around the house as well! I have indoor/outdoor plants and I can take care of your plants while you are away - I have a green thumb :) I’ve helped friends and clients with farm animals, including feeding and cleaning their spaces. If directed I can help with other farm projects. I am looking to take on as many hours as possible! I am currently in college, but only have classes Monday and Wednesday and can work around my school schedule. I am unable to bring pets home due to having my own cat and living in an apartment with a single pet deposit! But I am just fine coming to you! I offer dog walking, some behavioral training while pet sitting/walking, in home pet sitting, and I can do small cleaning projects for a minimal extra charge. I am gentle with the animals and can do grooming such as brushing and can try nail clipping if your pets allow it!
