Cat Sitting Will-O-The-Wisp

“Emily is so reliable and so popular with our cats! She accepted a booking on short notice and took great care of the pets while we were out of town.”

“Ashley was terrific. Reliably showed up at the agreed days, sent pictures, was great with the cats and even took care of mail & packages. We will certainly be looking to use her services again in the future.”

“I couldn't have felt more comfortable having Amber take care of my fur babies. She was amazing, communicative, flexible, and the dogs were smiling in early pic with pure joy. Highly recommend.”

Sara R.

“Excellent cat sitter! She did an excellent job taking care of my cat and was very attentive and reliable. She also left my home clean, tidy, and well organized, which I really appreciated. I felt very comfortable knowing everything was taken care of while I was away. I would definitely recommend her and would be happy to have her care for my cat again!”

Pamela M.

“Danielle did an incredible job of taking care of our cats! She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. She also went out of her way to take care of some household chores which was much appreciated. Very much looking forward to rebooking Danielle in the future.”

About: I offer personalized love and attention while you are away. My profile was inactive for a few years while my son was young but I have missed taking care of animals so am back at it. My reviews have also gone away so can provide references if needed while I build those back up. We treat your pets like family so you can enjoy your time away. I currently work part time and remotely and my son will be doing online school. Due to my flexible work I am open to days/times you need and can give your animals the attention they deserve. I care about and respect your instructions and space. I will treat your pets like family and your home as if it were my own.

“Kati and Mitch were WONDERFUL! Kept our little fluff ball company and took great care of her. Thanks a ton! We appreciate your help! Highly recommend”

Logan F.

“This was our first drop in visit using Rover and Samuel and it couldn’t have gone smoother. Samuel has been excellent to work with. Punctual, responds quickly, trustworthy. And my animals just love him, including my cat who he was able to get a pet out of, which never happens. Will be using Samuel from here on out.”

Jenny T.

“Madison did a great job caring for our shy little cat, SheShe. She is often timid with people, but Madison was kind and gentle with her, and even managed to coax her out for some petting. I highly recommend choosing Madison to care for your pets, she’s so kind and she loves cats (and dogs!). Will definitely use her again for pet visits.”

About: Your dog gets a half-acre fenced yard on two acres, and a gate that opens straight onto open space and trail. No loading up in a car to find a walk, we step out the door and go. For a big dog with a real engine, that’s the whole difference. I have two labs of my own, a male and a female, both social and easy, so your dog has company and a pack to fall into rather than a crate and a quiet house. I’ve been boarding for friends and neighbors for 10, and I know what a bored 70-pound dog does to a living room, which is why exercise comes first here, not as a bonus. Good fit for: large breeds, working and sporting dogs, adolescents with too much energy, dogs who don’t do well kenneled. Not a good fit for: dogs who can’t be around other dogs, or who need to be kept separate. I’d rather say that up front than have anyone spend a bad weekend. I also offer dog walking and drop-in visits for locals who’d rather keep their dog at home. Same approach, a walk here means actual miles on real terrain, not fifteen minutes on pavement. Daily photos and a note, usually from somewhere on the trail. I work from home, so dogs aren’t alone for long stretches, I’m here through the day and the routine is built around that. Mornings start with a walk on the trail behind the house before I sit down to work. I leave the doors open so that dogs are able to go in and out of the fenced yard through the day while I’m at my desk, with a midday break for a longer outing. Late afternoon is the real hike, when my two labs go out and your dog goes with them. Evenings are quiet, everyone’s tired by then, which is the point. I do take calls during the day, so there are stretches where I’m at my desk rather than actively playing, but the dogs are with me, not shut away. Weekends are more of the same with longer hikes and no calls Containment: My yard is a half-acre fully fenced, on two acres backing to open space. Gates stay latched and I check them before any dog goes out. Dogs are never off-leash on the open space unless the owner has confirmed reliable recall and I’ve seen it myself on a long line first, otherwise we hike on leash, every time. In the house: Dogs are loose in the main living area with me and my two labs, not confined to a garage or basement. I have crates available if your dog is crate-trained or you’d prefer it, and I’m happy to keep whatever routine they already have. New dogs and mine are introduced outside on neutral ground before anyone comes in the house. Requirements: Up to date on rabies, distemper/parvo, and bordetella. I ask for your vet’s contact and a backup person who can make decisions if I can’t reach you. Wildlife: We’re in the foothills, so coyotes, bears, and mountain lions are part of the landscape. Dogs go out into the fenced yard supervised, not unattended, and I don’t leave food or water bowls outside. Nobody is out in the yard alone at dawn or dusk. If something goes wrong: I’ll call you first, but I won’t wait on a callback to get a dog treated. My work is in wildfire and emergency planning, so I keep an evacuation plan for my own dogs including crates, leashes, records, and a go-bag ready and any boarding dog is included in it if there is an emergency.

About: I love pet sitting for my coworkers so much I decided to take it to Rover! My talents are understanding behavior, giving medications, and being easy going enough that animals feel relaxed with me. I've been pet sitting for two years and I'm excited to do it more often. I work a full time job but I like being able to make visits before of after making sure everything is cared for even if it means waking up extra early. I joke how I would be a bubble wrap mom. I'm very protective about the pets I'm with making sure they're not eating whay they're supposed to or getting into trouble. I also enjog building trust with my cilents by being as transparent as possible.

“Halle was super communicative and easy to work with. She gave lots of love and pets and made sure they were happy kitties.”

Keely L.

“Billie just stayed at our house for 18 days to watch our two cats (one senior and one teenager) & she is WONDERFUL! We had excellent communication leading up to the stay, regular feedback and pictures while we were gone, and we returned to a spotless house and two very happy cats. Billie is excellent at what she does for pets and we will absolutely use her again.”

Jack S.

“Jinia saved us by being available for Oreo last minute and she is awesome! On time. Reliable and took care of our boy. Thank you so much and excited to be able to have you over again. 😻”

“Awsome, extremely reliable, best pet sitter”

Jean-Pierre D.

“Anjani was amazing! She totally helped me out last minute when we had a cancelled sitter. We were in a funky old Airbnb with lots of quirks and she follow a ton of instructions perfectly. Communicated well, great photos and the dogs seemed really happy and tired when we got back. I would have no reservations or worries about booking for Anjani in the future !”

About: I have had dogs,cats,bunnies,chickens throughout my life. I know how to care for each one. I am a trusted and reliable handler with any family pet(s). Being a animal person is in my blood and I absolutely love it and enjoy caring for them. Currently I have a part time job. I also ride horses for friends that are away on trips. Together they don't pay my bills. Working with dogs and other animals for clients I have been thinking of doing for awhile now. It would be much appreciated to have you as my client and make this a career. I already have three dogs with me. Having any animals stay over at my house will not be an option at all. My dogs can be very wild and not the best behaved around new furry friends. For the safety of your pet and mine it would be best to dog sit over night at the clients home if preferred. Everything else is open.

About: I work from home, love helping others who needs a person who loves animals to sit your babies. I have 2 Doodles who loves their play dates or playmates from time to time. I’ve owned lots of dogs and cats growing up, always have a love for them. Will always give them love, attention, willing to run with them. My availability is pretty flexible and I am a mental health therapist.. I’m also hard of hearing so I can always teach sign language to your dogs if you want. :) I have a car, so I do accept having dogs in my car as long as they are trained for car rides. The love I have for animals are amazing and you wouldn’t be disppointed for hiring me. I prefer text only. Contact me ASAP! I’m excited for this opportunity. I am currently working full time during the week at home. A stay home job that wants to keep my doodles busy as well :) I have a fenced yard and 2 doodles who loves meeting new dogs and loves to play. I can take your animals on walks or dog parks.
