“Jen came out to meet the cats and get to know where everything was prior to her drop in visits. She is a friendly, trustworthy person. She took good care of my cats during her drop-in visits. Very satisfied.”

“India was AMAZING! She was consistent and left plenty of notes & photos after each visit. We were gone for a long vacation and felt like our cat was in great hands the entire time!!! Added bonus, we arrived back home and she had left a little card with polaroid photos of Lily from the week 🤗💕 10/10 she will be our first pick for a sitter going forward!”
“Jessica did an amazing job dropping in to take care of my cat. She was extremely responsive, took great pictures, and showed a ton of attention to him. I would absolutely book again!”
About: I Love all breeds of dogs and have lots of snuggles to give your fur babies. I pay attention to detail and understand how to care for a pet. Your pet will enjoy a comfortable stay in our home with our family as if they were our own. I do not have cages or crates. They will have use of our shaded and grass covered, fenced in backyard at their leisure and get lots of attention from myself and my kids. We truly enjoy spending time with different breeds. I look forward to going on long nature walks, playing with, and caring for your pets. I have been a pet owner my entire life and enjoy every aspect and being in the company of animals. I can provide outdoor play time, walks, feedings, administer medication and give baths to your fur baby. I can carefully follow any instructions provided whether it be crate traing or snuggling.
“Angelina did a great job looking after my cat. She kept me updated, made sure my kitty was fed and watered, cleaned up the litter, and kept my furry friend occupied with playtime. Angelina also shared regular updates. Beyond standard pet-sitting, Angelina kept her cool under stress. Someone came to my door and started harassing”
“Marina did a great job with twice daily drop-ins for 3 cats for 4 days. The cats where all comfortable with her and all went smoothly. She also seems to be a genuinely nice person. She is going to come by for drop-ins for my cats on my next trip as well!”
“Morgan did a great job during her visits with ollie and spice. Senting pictures including those of spice a very shy little girl. I would not hesitate to use her services again when I need cat care. Thank you Morgan ? ?”
“First time Rover user. Sent Eileen a message and she responded quickly. We felt confident and less anxious after meeting Eileen. She was willing to make drop in visits for our 2 young kittens very early in the mornings for a week during our vacation. She text us with daily pics and updates. She did everything we asked her to do, and we could tell she really enjoyed visiting our babies. We will be booking Eileen again.”
