Pet Sitting Summit-University

“Erica was great. We did a meet and greet before hand and my very nervous dogs warmed up to her immediately. She sent frequent updates and pictures! In one picture my dog was licking her face so I know that loved her!! We will be using her again in the future :)”

About: I've had cats since I was a child. Neighbors, roommates, friends, and family have relied on me to take care of pets when they are gone. This has included feeding at a specific time in a specific way and at times giving medication. With a former roommate, I also found and rescued a young female cat during law school, and she turned out to be pregnant. We bathed and brushed her several times to get rid of fleas, got her spayed after pregnancy, and rehomed the kittens. I've had my own cat for a few years now, and I understand needing to maintain their routine and monitoring diet to address issues such as regurgitation of food due to poor city water quality or eating too fast or sensitive stomach issues. I am an attorney and can visit the cats in the mornings and evenings and during the weekend at regular times and ensure they receive love and playtime. I do not care for pets in my home, as my apartment is too small and my cat is more of an only child. However, I am very much able to spend at least a couple hours each day with my clients' cat(s) to feed them, maintain cleanliness of their spaces, play with them with their favorite toys, and give them pets as each cat prefers.

“Kayleah is great! She helped us out last minute and was so efficient with communication during our time away. Our cat is also very particular about strangers and she did a great job taking care of him. We will continue to book her if we ever need someone to take care of our little fur babies while we’re gone.”

“Sara has taken care of our kitties a couple of times now, she is on it! She cuddles them, gives them treats and makes sure everything is clean. She even took our stinky garbage out for us when we forgot.”

Kirsten T.

“Abrielle is great with our senior kitty and kept her calm and loved on during a longer trip! Great communication and I would highly recommend.”

“Mary did a great job with our Great Pyrenees! Smooth transition from home to a walk and back again. Our pup looked so happy on her walk with Mary. :)”

“Hannah was absolutely fantastic with our pups over the weekend! She did great with administering oral medication to our senior dog and arrived on time and stayed the full length of the visit for every visit. Our dogs love her and we can’t wait to book with her next time!”

“Brittany was a great communicator, easy to do business with, and took nice pics of the pups. Thank you!”

About: I am new to Rover, but I have many years of experience in taking care of animals. In addition to living with cats and dogs for most of my life, I have also volunteered as a dog walker at the humane society. In addition to pets, I also volunteered at the Wildlife Science Center with feeding animals such as foxes, raccoons, bobcats, a lynx, and skunks, and I had the opportunity to care for wolf pups at the International Wolf Center. I am recently retired, so my schedule is flexible. I am available during the day and most evenings and am able to work around your schedule. I currently have two cats and previously had dogs, so I understand the importance of keeping them on a regular schedule. Being around animals gives me joy, so I look forward to spending quality time with your pet. I follow your instructions and make sure to follow your pet’s lead when interacting with them. I send you pictures, so you can see how your pet is doing when you are away. I can also check mail and water plants if needed.

“Jenna was awesome! Really helped me out with a short notice need. Dropped in to visit with my silly border collie. Followed instructions and communicated perfectly and sent great pictures!”

“Kelsey was a delight, very communicative, overall a very easy person to work with. I'd book her again in a heartbeat. We hired her for several drop-ins while I was out of town and she and my dog so clearly had a great time with each other. Such a gem!”

Julia U.

“Elizabeth always goes above and beyond to care for our dogs. You can tell this is her priority above all else, and always ensures they are safe and taken care of. 10/5 would recommend”

“Molly was excellent! She took great care of our two kittens and made sure they had everything they needed including lots of playtime. Molly was very responsive and communicative. We had a great experience, and would recommend Molly without hesitation.”

Carson C.

“Leah is absolutely wonderful with our dog Dylan! From the start, she was reliable, communicative, and clearly has such a natural way with animals. Dylan felt comfortable with her right away, and we loved the updates and photos Leah shared while we were gone it gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was happy and cared for. Leah is responsible, trustworthy, and treats pets like her own. We couldn’t recommend her more highly and are so thankful to have found her!”

Jessie C.

“Our dogs are happy when we leave so they can have their BFF Sharron come to play! Wipes away the guilt of being away when they feel like they’re on their own vacation.”

Maisha F.

“Sophie was great with Loki and even accommodated extra time on short notice to make sure he got enough love over the holidays. Greatly appreciate her care and thorough reports!”

About: I've spent years caring for both cats and dogs, including lots of time with our family dog. I'm patient, organized, and happy to follow your routine to the letter. Morning and evening drop-ins are my specialty. I'm a quick, reliable check-in while you're at work or out of town, so your cat never goes without food, a clean litter box, or company. Your home is your sanctuary, and I treat it that way. I lock up, keep things tidy, and leave everything as I found it. If anything seems off, you'll hear from me right away. In clients homes, I will -follow any notes left for care and routine -feed, walk, and play according to their needs -keeps pets living area and play space tidy -monitor health and behaviors and report any changes to the owner -respect the home and clients privacy

“Quilla left me feeling 100% confident that my two kitties were in the best care available. Her updates (and photos!) after every visit were so reassuring that I had made the right choice. The best!”

“Phenix was communicative, friendly, and so great with our pets! She will be our go to from now on, we loved having her! ☺️”

About: I've taken care of all sorts of animals from rabbits, cats, dogs, lizards and rats. I love almost every kind of animal and would love to experience them in full. I have taken care of senior animals in their last leg of life, almost like a pet hospice. Everyone deserves comfort and love. I have 2 cats myself, with my family. We all take turns and take time to care for the animals. They are like family to us, so its just kind of second nature to add them into our schedules. I have mentioned my family in certain bio points, but it will be just me showing up for you and your pets. In the client's home I would prefer a list of how you like your animal cared for as everyone has different schedules, but I would try to keep myself and your pets to your schedule. I know that structure can really help some people, and I know some loose reigns help others. So just give me a heads up for what you need and I will fit my style accordingly. I would like to point out that it will be just me taking care of your pets, I have mentioned my family in certain bio points, but it will be just me showing up for you.
