Cat Sitting Sutton

“First time using Taylor for my shy Himalayan cat. She was very patient and kind with the introduction process and following the details of food, water and clean up. Will definitely use her again with my cat and when I need dog walking in the near future!”

“Brianna did great caring for our cat while we were away. She paid great attention to detail and took notes on everything we went over. The cat was fed daily, water was kept clean, litter box(es) scooped, and all areas were kept very clean. In addition to taking great care of the cat, Brianna was willing to also check on our frog and maintain his waterfall and water bowl, which was a great extra bit of help. We received great photos of both the cat and the frog daily. We would absolutely trust her to care for our pets again in the future.”

“Skyler was watching my house when we had really bad storms here in July. She did a great job dealing with everything going on. There was no power and a window blew in. She looked for Wren right away and once she found her she went upstairs and fixed the window. It's great to have a sitter that was able to handle all of this. Though it was not an ideal situation she did fantastic and it made me feel that I can comfortably leave on trips and know that Skyler can manage multiple situations as they arise!”

“Ryan was absolutely amazing! He went above and beyond during his drop-in visits and was so attentive to our cats. He was incredibly friendly, personable, and clearly cares about the pets he's looking after. He even noticed and took care of little things we had forgotten before leaving, like making sure a light was left on for the cats. Those thoughtful extra touches really stood out and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter. 100% recommend Ryan, and we'll absolutely be booking him again!”

“Samantha was a wonderful sitter for our two rescue cats who are very skittish. She sent numerous photos every day which really put our minds at ease while we were away. She followed the care instructions perfectly and responded quickly for every step communicated. We will defintely have Samantha back!”

“Diane did a perfect job with our 4 cats! They all looked happy and clean when we came back from a 5-day trip. We will totally book her again! Highly recommend 👍👍”

About: I grew up in a home always having at least 2 pups running around & have always enjoyed being around animals. While I have always helped out with our own animals ever since I was little, I have been house sitting/pet sitting for others since I was 10! I also have experience with a wide age range, from puppies to senior pups. I have a few families I regularly dog-sit consistently that I’ve met through rover, and would love to add some new faces to my “dog family” & love on your pup while you’re away! :) I work full time Monday-Thursday, these days I am free after 6/7pm. I have full availability on Fridays and weekends for all the cuddles, walks & fetch games we can fit in! I have a cat - Luna - who is the sweetest ball of fluff you will ever meet, however, she is very anxious and shy. While she does very well with other cats, she doesn’t do well with dogs. Watching your pup in their own environment would be ideal, not only for them, but for her.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I graduated college. I have raised, trained and loved dogs from puppies to elder dogs and enjoyed every minute. I have also fostered dogs and volunteered at my local rescue organization. I currently work part-time it would be available in the afternoon and evening hours and weekends. I am comfortable walking in all weather too! Happy to also snuggle and provide comfort to anxious and skittish pets too. I am very diligent to make sure all pets have what they need. For example, making sure they have fresh water, clean paws for your home and a good walk is the priority! Having been a Rover client myself; I value clear and meaningful communication with the owners too to make sure everyone is comfortable and feels safe.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience and deep love for animals that goes far beyond just a job. I worked at a doggy daycare and boarding facility in East Dundee, IL for two years, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and needs every shift. It was an exhilarating experience, where I learned that every dog and cat have different needs and unique requirements. I have experience giving many dogs and cats their medications orally and with syringes because of working there. It was never easy, though, as I still have quite a few scratch and bite marks that have turned into scars. But, even with those, my love for animals has only grown and never shrunk. I want to use that experience to help work with dogs that may be the shyer type, ones who, like my own dog, are scared of strangers. I have additionally learned that every one of them have different boundaries and limits, and I have learned to respect those. It amazes me how many breeds are out there, for all animals, and I am excited to mark more off of my mental list once I meet yours! Similarly, at home, I have my own furry family. This includes a cat, dog, and in the past, a rabbit. On top of that, I’ve also fostered several litters of puppies within a 6 month period. I helped them grow strong, learn routines, and get ready for their forever homes. It is amazing how this experience impacted me, as I had the opportunity to be a part of all of their lives in a time where they were fully dependent. Additionally, by choosing me, you will be taking a part in my career path. I am going to be studying pre-vet next fall at a University, Lord-willing to become a veterinarian! Every chance I get to learn more about animals is a step in the right direction in my eyes. So, because of all this experience, I know exactly what it takes to keep the animal that I am taking care of in the most healthy state. Let me know a little, or a lot, about your animal once you book me, I won’t mind at all. I am a full-time student who attends school five days a week from 8-3p.m. I am available every weekday after 3p.m., and all day on Saturday! Reach out to me, and I’ll respond ASAP to see if your needs meet my availability! I will care for the animal with my highest effort, and make sure to always respect the required instructions. My home is a townhouse instead of a single-family home, but that does not mean I do not have space for your animal! I have an extra room in my house to place any animal(s) that I am watching, away from my own. It is a mid-sized empty bedroom that has a bed and a desk. If your dog or cat boards in my home, feel free to provide their favorite toys, blankets, and bed so that they will feel at home with their own belongings in a safe and quiet space. I like to play soft, ambient music before bedtime for my own animals, and I’ll plan on playing some for yours as well, since it can help the nerves.

“Carly is such a sweetheart & took such great care of my little man! When something came up, she still stopped by at the scheduled time to feed him and took extra time to hang out with my cat. Much appreciated :)”

“Morgan watched our elderly cat Bear in our home while we traveled. She did a great job with Bears daily syringe medication and took great care of our house while we were gone - it was very clean when we came back. She is a great pet sitter and we’d love to have her back again.”

“My wife and I like to take trips here and there, and we’ve always relied on our kids to watch the dogs while we’re away. We started to feel like it was becoming a burden for them, so we decided to look for a professional sitter instead. We were both understandably nervous about having someone come into our home to care for our dogs, but Selena quickly put us at ease. Selena was our first choice, and we are so glad we were able to book with her. She was quick to respond, extremely professional, and took the time to come over beforehand to meet the dogs and learn their routine. Right away, my wife and I were impressed with her experience, knowledge, and qualifications. While we were away for a long weekend, Selena was absolutely amazing. She sent us plenty of pictures, spent quality time playing with the dogs, and cared for them exactly as we would ourselves. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. I highly recommend Selena and have already rebooked with her for future trips.”

“Kristina was wonderful at taking care of Saga. She was kind, caring and loving. She was great at following directions related to her medication and food. Also, she was prompted answering all my questions. I appreciate your help and support when I was away from home. Thank you.”

“We were so lucky to find Kaitlyn! She responded quickly and was able to take on the job with very short notice, which we really appreciated. From the start, her communication was incredible—she sent detailed updates every visit along with adorable photos and videos that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Not only did she take great care of our cats, but she also went above and beyond by bringing in our packages and even cleaning up without us asking. It’s rare to find someone so thoughtful and thorough. We’ll absolutely be using Kaitlyn again and couldn’t recommend her more!”

About: I've taken care of and had dogs ever since I was 8 years old. I recently relocated to Chicago and lost my dog a little over a year ago at age 12 to natural causes. I'm very active into sports and take many walks daily. Throughout the year I like to foster dogs to help rescues with adoptions. I like to do a morning long walk 20 minutes or more before I go to work. Depending on what is needed for pet care, I have a pretty flexible schedule to do more than one potty break. After work I also like to do another evening walk if time allows and just to settle down for the night. I have a friendly dog community and do not mind walking multiple times to expend energy. The house is also very spacious for relaxation. If you allow furniture sleeping so do I. I'm flexible to what my clients would want from my in home stays. If I come to your house, naturally I would follow guidelines that your pet is typically used to.

“Madeline was awesome. Checked in and took care of my crazy boxers while I was at a concert. She was a life saver”

“Ashley was awesome! Very attentive house sitting my kitty Simba and communicative as well. She also took great, funny and cute pictures of him while I was away and was gracious enough to bring up my packages. When I came back, Simba’s fur was soft and shiny indicating he was grooming himself (and happy!) I would absolutely hire her to watch Simba again!”
