Obviously, Katelyn is a fellow caring cat person

Katelyn was so warm and responsive throughout the entire boarding process. She has a clear affinity and appreciation for cats, which is so important to us in a sitter. We felt completely confident that our cats were in good, loving hands, and were thrilled to see the daily updates and photos she shared from their stay. 100% would recommend.

Katelyn was timely and wonderful for popping in and taking care of the cats. She communicated well and dealt with any request we asked. We’re extremely grateful for her being prompt on a short notice. She followed instructions extremely well. We appreciate her effort.

Katelyn is a wonderful cat sitter. She is responsible, kind, and knows how to take excellent care of cats. From start to finish, we had pleasant, friendly communication. She kept us well informed about how our cat was doing with her while away and sent pictures so that we could see for ourselves. Our cat was in good hands, and our experience with Katelyn completely positive. We would trust her to sit for our cat again.

Very professional, caring, and quick to respond. :)

Katelyn took great care of my cat! Excellent communication and care. Thank you so much!

Katelyn did an amazing job with the my cats. She updated me daily with what they were up to and sent daily pictures of them as well. My boys had a blast and I’ll definitely recommend booking her!

Katelyn did a great job with sitting my cat! It was nice to receive consistent daily updates while I was away

Katelyn went above and beyond letting us know how our cats were doing and even having them crated up when we came to pick them up.

Very attentive, responsive and kind!!

Unfortunately, we had a very bad experience with Katelyn. We hired her to housesit and look after our very rambunctious cat. He needs a lot of attention and play, and she said in writing that she would come twice a day for 1 to 3 hours. She was very responsive at first, but the second day she told us that our cat was hissing at her. This was concerning, because we’ve never known him to act like this. At this point, we looked at our alarm data, and discovered why our cat was acting so strangely. She had only come for 23 minutes for the first visit, and then 11 for the second. She skipped the third, although she told us that she had visited when we asked how he was doing. We couldn’t deal with this dishonesty, so we had to make alternative arrangements for our cat care while away, which basically consumed a day of our trip and caused a lot of stress. We asked her to check on our cat and feed him before she handed over the keys, but she didn’t do that either. The person who came next to care for our cat, who had looked after him before, said that he was very distressed, jumpy, and hissing—very unlike him. But after he got some food and some attention, he calmed down and returned to his normal purry self. Clearly, his behavior was a result of his not getting the attention that he needed — and that we had paid for. When we canceled the rest of the care and asked for a refund, Katelyn refused. She said the reason she didn’t do the visits she promised in writing was that our cat had hissed at her and acted aggressively. She also accused us of intentionally setting her up with a crazy cat as an effort to get free pet care. My suspicion is that Katelyn planned to do the bare minimum—basically, keep our cat alive even if he was very unhappy. She would have gotten away with this had it not been for our alarm. But even if I give her the benefit of the doubt and believe that our cat made her feel unsafe, it is super problematic that she never communicated that to us, which would have allowed us to work out an alternative situation. In fact, when I said it was strange he was hissing and apologized, she said it wasn’t a big deal. We selected Kaitlyn because of her very high ratings and her star sitter status. Although Rover ultimately refunded the cost of our care, they have allowed her to preserve her star sitter status, which is wild in light of the dishonesty she showed and the fact that she neglected our cat. I am leaving this review so others are aware of this experience.

Katelyn did an amazing job watching my cats. She was very communicative and sent a lot of pictures and videos. I would highly recommend Katelyn and will definitely be using her services again.

Katelyn is wonderful! Very reliable and responsive! My cats love her and she keeps the apartment as clean as when I leave it!

Katelyn is an excellent cat-sitter. She's always on time, sends lots of photos and videos, and mycat loved her.

Katelyn did a great job taking care of my cat. Constantly provided updates and let me know how my pet was adapting to her surroundings. Was a great experience and couldn’t have asked for more.

Katelyn was great! She sent pictures to update me on my cat and to let me know how she was doing.

Katelyn is wonderful! She was very reliable, kept in regular contact, and took excellent care of my kittins! All instructions were followed perfectly and my cats were clearly happy! Highly recommended!

Howie seemed so happy with Katelyn!! She was so kind and caring when we met her and sent multiple updates on what Howie was doing and how he was doing in a new environment. She eased all our concerns and made us feel like Howie would be loved and welcomed in his time with her.

There is truly no one I trust Brick with more than Katelyn. She treats her like one of her own and Brick always comes back so happy and bright. Additionally, Katelyn sends me lots of photos and videos which is always so nice to see when I am missing my cat. She is the best!!

Katelyn was wonderful with my kitty Pretzel. I’d never left her with anyone before and was a bit anxious! Katelyn put me at ease by sending updates, videos, and pictures throughout my time away.
