“Jennifer is the *purrfect* kitty sitter! She recently cared for my two senior cats and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. They liked her instantly, even if it took them a little time to fully come out of their shells—but by the end, they *loved* her! Jennifer clearly understands cats and knows how to build trust at their pace. She was reliable, communicative, and sent the sweetest photo updates while I was away. It gave me such peace of mind to know they were in such good hands. If you're looking for someone who will truly connect with your cats and care for them like her own, Jennifer is the one!”

About: Hi, I’m Erick! I’ve cared for dogs since childhood and have years of experience walking, sitting, and making pups feel safe and loved. I recently started working as a school bus driver, which shows the patience and responsibility I bring to everything I do. My schedule is: • Mon–Fri: Available 9:30–11 AM & after 6 PM • Weekends: Fully open Even though Rover shows I don’t send photos 100% of the time, that’s only because I usually text updates and photos directly to owners for faster communication. Rest assured, you’ll always know how your pup is doing! Whether it’s a walk or drop-in, I’ll treat your dog like family and keep their routine consistent. Monday – Thursday • Availability: 9:30 AM – 12:00 PM & 6:00 PM – 11:00 PM • 30-Minute Walks: $20 • Drop-Ins (45 minutes): $30 (Includes walking, feeding, refreshing water, playtime, and small additional services.) Friday • Availability: 9:30 AM – 11:00 AM & 6:00 PM – 11:00 PM • 30-Minute Walks: $20 • Drop-Ins (45 minutes): $30 Saturday – Sunday • Open availability • Weekend Fee: +$5 added to walks and drop-ins — Walks: $25 — Drop-Ins: $35 I’ll get on the ground with your dog, ensuring they feel comfortable and engaged. I provide walks at least two times a day, or more if needed, and make sure they’re fed two to three times daily—or as often as you prefer.
About: I've been in love with animals for as long as I can remember! I grew up around animals and owned a chihuahua. I regularly take care of friends' dogs in the area when they are out of town and am happy to meet some new furry friends! I am very loving, responsible, organized, nurturing, and attentive. Animals make me happy. I would love to take care of your furry friend! Book me and allow me to do something I love to do. I currently work from home, so my schedule is very flexible! I'm happy to visit your dog whenever is best for their schedule. I will gladly send you picture and video updates of your pet, and happy to play with them using their favorite toys. I also love cuddle sessions! I will ensure your pet is being cared for and am open to learning your pet's caregiving style. I like to listen to the pets I care for and pay attention to their body language. That has helped me fully understand the needs of each pet I have taken care of.
“Elisa was a wonderful sitter for our two kitties. I greatly appreciated the extra effort she took to work with us when our schedule changed due to bad weather. And I know Jack enjoyed getting a little play time!”

About: I started working with pets at the start of the pandemic, when my mom surprised the household with an energetic and anxious goldendoodle. He was 50 pounds and 5 feet long, and insisted on peeing in every corner of the house. I dedicated myself to training him, and he now serves as a service animal for mental health disorders. In the last six years, I have worked with dogs of all breeds and sizes, rabbits, birds, and cats. I can't wait to get to know your fur-baby :) I am available everyday between the hours of 9:00am - 3:00pm, but am able to make other arrangements if needed. Please feel free to contact me if amended hours are needed! My services include providing multiple daily walks, food, potty breaks, and playtime with your pet (dogs, cats, rabbits, and birds) in your home. I am also able to train pets at all levels of obedience to perform a series of tricks ranging from sit to retrieving medications.

About: I have been around pets all my life I love to go on long walks, I believe that pets are our companions and should therefore be cared and treated as such. Going the extra mile for them means the world for me considering they are always there for us during both our highest and lowest moments in life. I am available daily for walks during the morning and afternoon. Being active is apart of my lifestyle and incorporating it by walking pets makes it even more enjoyable. I will keep an eye on all pets assigned to me which will not be a problem since I love playing with pets, and keeping them active. I will especially keep a close eye on puppies and kittens as I know from personal experience that they are very curious and need constant care.
“Bryant did a superb job with our three cats! He made himself available on short notice and did a great job tending to their individual meds. We could tell the cats liked him, too. Would definitely hire again!”

About: I’m a college student with 4 years experience who loves dogs, enjoys spending time playing with them, and really likes meeting and caring for new dogs whenever I get the chance. I have experience caring for dogs and puppies through helping family members with their pets, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing loving, reliable care to keep pets safe, happy, comfortable, and well cared for.” I follow a daily schedule to care for my cats, including feeding them in the morning and evening, cleaning litter boxes regularly, providing fresh water, and spending time playing and bonding with them throughout the day. I provide a safe, trustworthy, and comfortable environment for pets by following their routine closely, ensuring their space is clean and secure, giving them fresh food and water, and offering gentle, attentive care and companionship.
“Nicole did an amazing job taking care of my cat. She sent me regular updates with pictures. She was very professional and communicated well. I would trust her to take care of my cat again.”

“Marion watched out kitty when we went out of town for 10 days. She was an excellent communicator and kept us up to date on all of our cats needs. He came to live time with her when she came over. She was also punctual and communicated when timing needed to shift slightly. All in all a very positive experience for us and our kitty of course.”

“Lili took care of our cat, Mishmish, while we were on vacation. She followed instructions to the T, and our elderly cat, who is usually pretty lethargic and not overly friendly, warmed up to her. We came back to clean litter box, swept floors, and our cat having fresh water and food. We will absolutely work with Lili again when we travel for extended period of time, and highly recommend her to any pet owner.”


About: I've had my dog his whole life (17 years) but I've actually been a caretaker for my entire life. I'm the eldest sibling, first grandchild, therefore the oldest of all of my cousins & I have babysat all of them (and their pets) through all stages of young life. I'm used to taking care of animals & kids. I used to volunteer at an animal shelter as a kid in Pennsylvania, and thus far there isn't a single animal that I've come to contact that I don't like! These days, I do a lot of pet & house sitting for my artist friends and family (ranging from just a walk a day to over a week of living with their pets.) I have experience with older animals with medical needs, and I've even taken over for friends who were pet sitting themselves but couldn't handle the difficulties of living in a small space with a large teething puppy. A couple of years ago (right before the pandemic) one of my favorite neighborhood cats brought my to her newborn kittens, and I took it upon myself to feed & house her & the babies until they were ready for adoption (and they're all safe and happy with their individual families). Even the mom eventually got spayed & adopted. I'm a freelance artist, so my schedule varies from week to week. At the moment, I have a lot of freedom, so I'm prepared to take on whatever service(s) are needed of me. I follow instructions very well & always leave homes cleaner than how I entered them. In the past, I've created lists on my phone with furbaby's routines & needs (medical details with images included as an added measure,) as well as sending pictures/videos to their owners while they're out.
“Jessica took such good care of my cat and was an excellent communicator! Sent great updates, photos, brushed him, etc! She’s the best! Made me feel so much better about traveling.”

About: Hi my name is Brandon. I was raised in New York and have owned a few dogs over the years. I have about 12 years of experience walking and sitting for different breeds of dogs including stubborn bulldogs, hyper huskies, large golden retrievers, etc. I'm available all days, mostly afternoons and nights. I'll walk in any weather conditions, whether it's snowing, raining or scorching hot. I will be sure to care for your dog and they are my own because I know how much they mean to you. I can run and play with your dog or I can take it easy. I will make sure to log and report any physical and behavioral changes I observe while on a walk or while pet sitting.
Woodlawn cat parents share their Rover experiences
I cannot recommend our cat sitter highly enough! She took such amazing care of our cats while we were away and went above and beyond in every way. Not only did she make sure our cat was comfortable and monitored closely, but she also cleaned up all the messes without complaint and kept us updated throughout the entire time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pets were in such caring and capable hands. She was reliable, attentive, communicative, and genuinely treated our cats as if they were her own. It’s not easy dealing with unexpected pet health issues, but she handled everything with kindness and dedication. We came home to happy cats and a clean home, and we are so grateful for her help.

Angelique was amazing with our two cats! She provided excellent updates with a lot of photos and she took time to make sure and spend time with each of them. She has a real connection to cats and you could tell right away at the meet and greet. We definitely recommend her and look forward to booking her again!

Isabella H. is a wonderful, conscientious animal carer. As a first-time cat parent, I was overly worried about leaving my cat for only 4 days. I did not have to worry, Ms. H took great care of him. I came home to a playful, well fed, frisky cat who is appears to be pining for her a bit. He is waiting by the door for her to come by still!
