“Rachel was very communicative while we were away on vacation. She sent us pictures of our furry friend and updates. She had the pool out for the dogs and I felt like she was being well taken care of and it eased my mind while away. My dog came home exhausted! Which tells me she had a lot of play time. Happy with our experience”

Cat caregivers near you - Brighton
About: I have experience in cat sitting with clients, some of them had anxious cats that were more on the spicy side. I gained their trust and surprised their owners when they found out how close and cuddly they got with me, that's my quality. I don't expect every cat to open all of their boundaries and I respect doing what they want. 😸 I am known to socialize with the cats outside of just feeding them and cleaning their litterbox. I have had 3 cats of my own, 2 which have been elderly cats who needed medicine and careful care. 💊 I am very good at administering meds and staying consistent. I have had two dogs which both crossed the rainbow bridge from elderly age (a malamute and a newfoundland). I am an equal cat and dog lover! I would love to have a dog again one day. I walk with a cane so I am comfortable walking small dogs. 🐶 I have a very flexible schedule since I work from home. I can stop by any time in the mornings, afternoons, and also early evenings. When going to a client's home, I am very careful when entering and exiting the home when the door opens. I also do a head count of any cats including my own before leaving a house. I know from my own pet that they like to get curious and can suddenly go into a bathroom or closet and can get closed in. Just like my teaching days - taking head counts is important! I also watch the pets as they eat especially if there are multiple in a house so that they don't overeat by sneaking snacks from their pet buddies food.

“Cayla was FANTASTIC with my cat. She gave her so much love and attention. The follow up messages and photos were so thorough. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caregiver.”

“Emily was great! She took excellent care of my baby, going beyond expectations by spending long periods of time keeping her company :) will definitely book with her again!!”

“Michelle has been excellent ! We are so fortunate our Mabel had such awesome care and attention . We felt very comfortable having Michelle in our home and spending time with our best girl ! I highly recommend Michelle to anyone who loves their pet(s) and wants the security of knowing they are loved and cared for 1,000% of the time . I was nervous to use Rover as I am first time user . Michelle made it so easy and comfortable .”

“Declan is an extremely friendly and reliable sitter! He's great with our new kittens and has been very gracious working with us on short notice with our relatively erratic schedule. Would recommend to anyone in need of a sitter!”

“Rebecca is amazing. She kept the house clean, was super responsive to my being a nervous cat mom going away for the 1st time. She sent lots of photos and updates and I am planning to book her again for a few other trips I have coming up. I highly recommend her!!!!!!”

I have tons of experience with puppies. Also have experience with older and special needs dogs. I would love to take care of your pet while you’re busy!

“Finally! We have found the perfect cat and house sitter. Terri did an amazing job taking care of both while we were gone for 2 weeks. Our house was just as clean as I left it (I am a little OCD when it comes to that) and our little ball of fur was happy. Terri sent pictures daily and updated us each day with how Callie was doing. You could tell from the pictures our kitty was relaxed and comfortable with Terri. I would highly recommend Terri to anyone looking for someone to care for their furry family member and home. She is amazing!!”

About: For some reason, every dog I've ever met loves me. I absolutely adore dogs. I've been dog sitting for 17 years for friends and family. I've taken care of shy, skittish, hyper, calm, anxious, and every other type of dog personality. I have a calming way about me that dogs love. I'm incredibly trustworthy, detail oriented, careful, loving, and protective. I am willing to help out in any way needed to make your dog as happy as possible. The dog in my profile is my former dog Roxy. I rescued her from a shelter. She was my best friend. No one would choose her for a forever home because she had a lot of social needs. I was able to work with her on these needs and did a lot of training and she became an amazing dog. I can't wait to meet your dog or dogs and give them the care that they need.

About: I'm an energetic person who enjoys being with dogs. I pay close attention to detail and I am always willing to engage in activities to keep your dog busy but I also know dogs need some down time as well. I stay at home full-time so I will be able to provide plenty of potty breaks and play time in the backyard. I am currently a dog daddy to a Chihuahua named Lucy. She'll be 1 years old on November 1st. She's very loving and friendly dog. I have 7 years of experience. I don't mind taking your dogs or puppies out for walks instead of just staying in the backyard. I will take good care of your beloved pets as if they were my very own.
“April has been watching both my pups for quite some time now. They go to April multiple days a week for a full day. I receive photos, updates with concerns, etc. My pups are well cared for and are definitely wore out by the end of the day! I would definitely recommend her services. She even has meet and greets if other dogs will be present on days my pups are there and makes sure it is a good fit. It is very scary finding someone genuine to take care of your fur babies but April does wonderful and takes great care of them. Thanks!”

“Megan is friendly, very good with observations and feedback, shares photos and updates throughout the day. Her home is very dog friendly, clean, and safe.

About: I have 4 of my own fur babies all under 20lbs. I have a fenced yard and love watching them run around and play. I live in a safe neighborhood where walks are easy and fulfilling. I have recently helped neighbors with their dogs and realized how much I enjoy playing with other dogs. I know how much it means to me when my dog sitter really pays attention to my dogs while I'm away and hope to bring that comfort to your fur baby when your away too! I'm self employed so I have a wide variety scheduling freedom. I am best with last minute or day before day care or pop in visit. Even if you just need a couple hours or quick potty pop in. A days notice is probably best for me since my schedule can change from day to day. I have a fenced in yard and 4 pups ready for play time! I have had dogs with dietary needs and medications. I enjoy playing games and teaching tricks or just cuddling.
About: I own 4 cats, also owned 2 dogs in the past that lived to their golden age. My cats range in age from 12 - 2.

“Jennifer was amazing to work with. She was able to come in and take the booking after we had to last minute change sitters due to an emergency with the previous booking. She sent us photos of our girl having fun and just did a fantastic job of watching her for us. If we're ever in the area again, we would for sure book with Jennifer again!”

“My wife and I are incredibly grateful that Byron and his wife were our dogsitters. They truly went above and beyond in taking excellent care of our furry companions. We will definitely book them again whenever we need reliable dog sitters to look after our dogs.”

“Was the first time that I used Meagen’s services. I think it was wonderful and I think she is great with animals. Her children’s and be really good with animals too. She sent me pictures of him and he was right at home in a new environment. I strongly recommend her and will definitely utilize her service again.”
“This was my first time using Rover. I couldn’t have picked a better family to look after my 2 girls while I was out of town. Scott sent picks and videos every day while yo was gone showing how much fun they were having.”

“I was very happy with all aspects of my experience with Jennifer. Her communication, her energy, her attitude towards my dog, her willingness to understand and meet his needs, and the pictures she shared of him during the stay. My dog went easily with her (his first time with her) so I know he felt comfortable with her right away.”

“I was very anxious about leaving my large elderly bulldog with someone new. Chisato kindly allowed us a meet and greet prior to our reservation to alleviate my concerns and allow my dog a chance to visit her home. During my dog's stay, I received very regular text updates with lots of pictures, video, and descriptions of her day. She took my lazy pup out for many slow walks, and did a wonderful job managing her medications and dietary needs, including a medicated bath. I am extremely happy with the care our dog received, and will absolutely recommend her to our friends and family.”
