Cat Sitting West Hartley

“Dana was attentive, gentle, and genuinely connected with my kittens from the very beginning. She sent thoughtful updates and sweet photos every day, which made it easy to relax knowing my cats were comfortable and cared for. My female cat can be shy with new people, but she warmed up quickly thanks to the sitter’s patience and calm energy. I truly appreciate the compassion and reliability she brought to the job. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your pet like family.”

“Victoria was awesome to have check in on our little one while away! She was very communicative and through. I felt confident that everything was done as needed. She even gave updates on the house when she noticed some water leaking and the trash bins moved from where they were the day before. I will definitely be reaching out for more cat care in the future !”

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently have two dogs and four cats, and I truly treat them like my children. I’m patient, attentive, and take pride in understanding each pet’s unique personality, needs, and routines. I love talking to my animals, spending time with them, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, overnight boarding, or loving babysitting while you’re away, you can feel confident knowing they’ll be cared for like they’re my own. As a full-time Realtor, I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate your pet’s needs throughout the day, as well as early mornings, late evenings, and overnight stays. My schedule allows me to be available when you need me, whether that means a midday walk, an evening visit, or overnight care. I’m dependable, punctual, and happy to work around your schedule and your pet’s routine. I have a secure, comfortable home where your pets can feel safe and relaxed. I also have two friendly, well-loved dogs who enjoy having new furry friends around. I’m able to provide easy access to walks and plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout their stay. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority.

About: I’ve been surrounded by pets throughout my childhood and into adulthood, and caring for animals has always been a natural and meaningful part of my life. Growing up, I learned the joy and responsibility that comes with having a pet — from everyday care and companionship to understanding their individual personalities and needs. Over the years, my love for animals has only grown. I truly enjoy spending time with pets, giving them attention, keeping them comfortable, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. As a lifelong pet owner and animal lover, I understand that pets are family, and I treat every pet in my care with the same patience, kindness, and affection I would want for my own. I work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility and availability to dedicate time and attention to the care and needs of your beloved pets. I’m able to provide the companionship, care, and consistency they deserve, while making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved in your absence. I understand how valuable and important your pets are to you, and I’m committed to treating them like family. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I take the time to create a calm, clean, and secure environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. I follow each pet’s routine and any special instructions from their owner, while giving them plenty of attention, patience, and companionship. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big responsibility. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own, and I want you to feel confident knowing they are in caring, responsible hands while you’re away.

“This is our first time using Rover as well as having a person drop in and take care of our cats. Katie went beyond our expectation, all the great questions ahead and staying in contact with us. Thank you Katie, we will be reaching out for the next opportunity to have you take care of cats.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I grew up with my childhood dog and cared for him for 17 years until he passed away. I now have three huskies, so taking care of dogs is a big part of my everyday life. I’m reliable, patient, and comfortable with high-energy dogs. I know how important it is to have someone you trust taking care of your pets while you’re away, and I’ll follow their normal routine, give them plenty of attention, and keep you updated with pictures along the way. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I’m happy to coordinate schedules in advance and keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. I’ll follow the routine and instructions you leave for your pets and make sure they’re safe and comfortable while in my care. I’m careful when coming and going, especially with doors, gates, and leashes. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own and keep you updated while you’re away.

“Dawna took great care of my cats - she left detailed notes and sent plenty of pics to reassure me!”

About: I love caring for dogs. Short or long walks, playing at the park or in their yard. When they are happy it makes me happy. Feeding time or treats always on owners timeline! I am currently not working so available to be with your pet all day! Feedings, walks, whatever is needed they will feel safe and happy. I like to care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable. I will be able to keep them on their daily schedules where they feel safe.

“Great with my cat and reasonable priced. Happy she could help me out last minute. Very knowledgeable and gave some good advice to help me keep my cat happy and healthy. Thank you so much. Can’t wait to work with her again”

“Byrnnye is amazing. You can tell she really loves our Diesel!! Thank you Byrnnye. We will schedule the next one with you when we go on our next trip!!”

About: I'm a retired officer, background-checked through Rover, and have more than 10 years of experience caring for my own dogs as well as friends', family members', and clients' pets. Throughout my career and personal life, responsibility, trustworthiness, and attention to detail have always been important to me, and I bring those same qualities to every pet I care for. In 2016, I adopted Barney the Shih Tzu, followed by Jack in 2019. Both were estimated to be about four years old at the time. In 2025, Jack passed away from bone cancer, giving me firsthand experience caring for a senior dog with significant medical needs. In 2022, I rescued Penny, the white pup in my profile photo. Certifications & Experience • Cat & Dog First Aid (American Red Cross) • Experience administering oral medications • Experience caring for senior pets and pets with special needs • Experience caring for dogs and cats of various ages, sizes, and temperaments, including a large Rottweiler I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, consistency, and individualized care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, senior and slower-paced, or simply happiest sticking to a familiar routine, my goal is to provide dependable care while helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I'm home much of the time. This allows me to provide regular companionship, potty breaks, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. Because I intentionally limit the number of pets I care for at one time, I am able to provide a more personalized level of attention and maintain a calmer environment for the pets in my care. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I strive to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. Consistency helps pets feel comfortable, secure, and relaxed while their owners are away. My schedule is generally flexible, allowing me to accommodate a variety of care needs, including daycare, overnight care, drop-in visits, and pet sitting in a client's home. Pick-up and drop-off service may be available depending on distance and scheduling. My dogs are part of the family and spend much of their time relaxing near us, on the furniture, or curled up on a lap. Visiting pets are treated with the same level of care, attention, and companionship while in my home. Dogs are welcome on furniture unless owners request otherwise. I intentionally limit the number of guest dogs I accept at one time to help create a calm, safe, and low-stress environment. This allows me to provide close supervision and a more personalized experience than many high-volume pet care settings. If you prefer your dog to be crated for sleeping, feeding, or when unattended, I'm happy to accommodate as long as a crate is provided. Visiting dogs should be reasonably housebroken, with exceptions considered on a case-by-case basis for puppies and special circumstances. Meet-and-greets are strongly preferred whenever possible before services begin. They allow me to learn about your pet's personality, needs, and comfort level while helping determine whether my home and care style are a good fit. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the owner's home, providing dependable care, companionship, exercise, and attentive supervision. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, consistency, and respect. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable environment where pets can feel relaxed, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away.

About: have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I have been apart of the Rover community for around 2 years now. I am constantly around animals and having to commit myself to taking care of them. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them. I would love to be able to take them to the park or hiking where they can interact with other animals while you're away! My routine is Monday-Sunday anytime and i dont have anything that is blocking this job, I'm flexible reliable on any days if needed thank you! I will not be able to house your pets in my house due to my own pets not getting along with other dogs and cats.

About: I dog sit of my friend dog once a while for almost 5 years. She normally stay with me more than 7 days. I’m good at take her out for a walk even during raining day. I love to give them belly rub. I spend most of my weekend at home so I have time to take care pet during the weekend. I like to take pet wherever I go, otherwise I feel bad for leave them at home for a long time. I live in a two story townhouse with 2 bedrooms, offering plenty of space for small dogs to comfortably move around and go up and down the stairs. There’s a community park right outside my home, and I love spending time outdoors. I’m happy to take dogs on long walks and make sure they get plenty of exercise and fresh air, especially if they enjoy being active.

About: I have over 4 years of professional experience working with animals, including 2½ years at a dog boarding and daycare facility where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. This includes hands-on experience with both energetic puppies and senior dogs requiring extra patience, gentle care, and attention to comfort and mobility needs. My experience includes walking, feeding, bathing, nail trimming, teeth brushing, medication administration, and monitoring group play to ensure every pet stays safe and happy. I am also certified in pet first aid and CPR, so you can feel confident your pet is in capable, prepared hands. I have experience administering medications and following detailed care instructions for pets with special needs, including seniors and dogs requiring consistent routines. I’ve grown up around dogs and have a lifelong love for animals and I currently have two cats of my own. I’m also familiar with multi-pet households, as my mom has a 5-year-old terrier mix, brother has reptiles and I’ve provided pet sitting for family and friends over the years who have multiple pets. I’m currently in college working toward veterinary school, so caring for animals isn’t just a job—it’s my passion and future career. I genuinely enjoy working with pets at every life stage, from playful puppies to senior companions, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work full time and am also a part-time college student, but I am very flexible with scheduling, especially in the evenings. My work schedule is provided one week in advance, which allows me to plan ahead and accommodate bookings as needed. I also typically have 2–3 full days off each week, which I can dedicate to providing full-day care and attention for pets. I am happy to adjust my availability to fit your pet’s routine whenever possible. I also offer overnight stays, ensuring your pets receive consistent care, including morning feedings, walks, and attention so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I offer overnight stays in my home; however, I do require a meet and greet with my dog beforehand to ensure both dogs are comfortable and get along well. I also provide overnight stays in your home so your pet can remain in their familiar environment, which helps reduce stress and maintain their normal routine. This is often the best option for pets who feel most secure in their own space. I have experience with transporting pets safely when needed, as well as crate training and crating routines. I am very attentive to maintaining each pet’s daily schedule, including feeding times, walks, medication administration, and bedtime routines to ensure consistency and comfort while you’re away. You can trust that I will treat your home and your pet with the utmost respect, care, and responsibility at all times.

“Tessa is truly a hidden gem! Not only did she take wonderful care of our cats and shower them with attention, but she also looked after our home and plants beautifully. She responded quickly to our messages, and when we returned, the house was spotless, as if she had never been there. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!”

“Nicoletta really cared for our feral Ben cat unlike any other vet or vet tech we’ve known. She got to know him by just letting him be his wild self. And of course, he cozied right up with her. Noticing that he is a fast-twitch guy, she played it cool and gave him pets when he was calm. I love Nicoletta’s demeanor with our cat, and her care in posting photos meant the world to us! Such an amazing person and sensitive cat care giver!!!”

“Nancy has watched Jackson for me a few times and accepted last minute! She’s a great help and I would recommend her 100%. When I arrive home from my trips he does not have his usual anxiety which gives me relief!!! He typically has a hard time when I leave and since Nancy has been watching him, it’s stopped!”
