Cat Sitting Yancey Mills

“I can’t say enough good things about Nicole! We had to leave our bulldog, Porter, for a night and were a little nervous, but Nicole put all our worries to rest. She was so attentive and kind, making sure Porter was comfortable. We got regular updates, including adorable pictures, which gave us peace of mind. When we returned, Porter was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious that Nicole is passionate about dogs and truly loves what she does. We’ll definitely be using her services again! Highly recommend!”

“Austin and her kiddos took amazing care of our sweet Lily today! She provided cute pictures and they went on a fantastic walk! We are so thankful for her!!”

“Erica was an extraordinary sitter who made me feel as if I had left my animals in good hands. My fur babies were well cared for. I will definitely use her again.”

“We are so happy to have found Vanessa through Rover. Vanessa responded immediately to our last minute request for help with our dog, Waffles. All of our communications were fast and easy. Most importantly, Vanessa took great care of our little guy. She sent pictures and videos of their time together and called when she had a question. We will definitely hire Vanessa again.”

“Pam took excellent care of our kitties- I could even say we returned to find our home and fur babies in better condition than we left them! She made sure our grouchy old lady always ate and was brushed, and she spent time to try and bond with her too. Pam kept their boxes spotless and entertained our two younger heathens with treats and brushing every day. Everyone’s fur is soft and clean and they all are well fed and seemed happy and calm when we returned! No urgent “where have you BEEN” meows like usual when we leave them for a shorter time! Pam even suggested that she put music on the radio for them and did and I think they really liked it! Overall excellent to over the top care provided for our furry family and respect for our home too despite the icy treacherous conditions of our driveway!!”

“Caroline gave me the peace of mind I needed as I traveled! She not only diligently scooped his litter and fed him but also cleaned up after my cat when he had an accident and knew how to get him to come out of his hiding spots and play! Highly recommend booking with Caroline if you have the opportunity, I certainly will be!”

About: I’ve taken care of many pets in the past 7 years like dogs, cats, birds, and have even worked on a farm helping to take care of animals. I am currently in college, so I have some free time that i’d love to spend with different animals. I love playing and taking care of animals and love them to be part of my life. In other clients homes, I will abide by the rules they have and make sure that my visit runs smoothly. I will show the pet love and care to ensure that they are happy.

“Christie did a wonderful job taking care of our elderly cat. We were away for 2 weeks and George was in great shape when we returned.”

About: I have over 12 years of experience caring for animals. As a former pet owner, I understand the stress that comes with finding someone compatible and dedicated enough to watch over your loved ones while you are away. My clients have been able to rely on me to take great care of their loved ones while they are away. I have experience, with walking, feeding, cleaning, and medicating pets. I have also worked with rescues and difficult to deal with dogs and cats. Please do not worry about the size of your dog, I am very comfortable caring for large dogs as well as small. I have recently graduated from Roanoke college, so I will have plenty of time to play with, care for, and love on your pets while you are away. Seeing your pets happy makes me happy! I am very detail oriented so there is no need to worry about whether your pet has received their medication or if they will escape the house or yard. I always triple check to ensure their needs have been met, from feeding to walking to medication – with the addition of playtime and treats.

“Leslie is great. She checked in on my dog while we were gone all day and our regular person was unavailable. She came out beforehand to meet us and I knew she would be great. She obviously has a lot of experience and is prompt and professional. She sent photos and reassurances that all was well. I would definitely use her again.”

“Karlee was awesome! She left the most detailed notes and photos that I've ever seen from a sitter, and she was incredibly personable and warm. Definitely glad we found her to care for our kitties and wouldn't hesitate to book her again.”

Catherine O.

“I had such great peace of mind having Mary come to take care of my cats. She sent me photos at each visit and gave great descriptions of what the cats were up to 😊”

Emily W.

“Jocelyn was nothing but great. For me, it's all about easy communication. She was very easy to talk with and always gave us updates. Also, our cat was spicy for her, but Jocelyn kept the love coming.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience with both energetic dogs and senior pets. I currently care for a 12 year old German Shorthaired Pointer, so I have firsthand experience managing high energy levels, from his puppy years through his senior stage, while also being attentive to the extra care older dogs need. I can balance exercise, routine, and care. In addition, I have two 14 year old cats and experience feeding cats and maintaining clean litter boxes. I also enjoy running and I have experience running with my GSP. I’m currently working at a tax accounting firm in Charlottesville through the end of tax season on April 15, 2026, so my Rover availability is limited until then. Starting April 16, 2026, I’ll be a lot more flexible since my seasonal position ends! I’ll have completely open weekday availability for dog walks, drop-in visits, and checking in on houses or cats. On some weekends I stay in town and can do dog walking or house sitting, but it varies. You’re always welcome to reach out about weekend care but I just can’t promise I’ll be around every time. Have questions or want to check availability? Send me a message and I'd love to chat and see how I can help! A couple of heads-ups: I’ll be at the beach from May 25–29, 2026, and unavailable for Rover services during that time. I also plan to go inactive on Rover after June 10, 2026. I primarily offer care in my clients’ homes and aim to take walks in the Crozet area so I can easily walk or drive to clients’ homes for dog walks, pick-ups, or check-in visits.

“Cory was a lifesaver with our pup. We were in a real scramble as we had to leave town unexpectedly for a family emergency. We had different friends helping out each day until we found Cory. He was really easy to communicate with, took great care of our pup, rolled with her medical needs, and was very understanding when we needed to make changes—all over a holiday weekend. It was a huge relief knowing he was taking care of things at home while we navigated our family issue. We will definitely reach out to him first for any future needs.”

“Isabelle was great!”

About: I’ve always been a dog person! I’ve raised multiple puppies and have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages. I would be happy to hang with any and all dogs! I work 9-5 on the weekdays but I would be happy to pet sit, do drop in visits, and walks both before and after! I will make sure to spend all of my free time with your pup! I am open on the weekends as well. :) I have a small mixed breed 1 year old puppy named Biggie! He loves to play and go on walks near our house and play fetch in the dog park beside our house as well! I make sure to give my dogs down time in the day by having some designated crate time. I am very attentive to my dog and other dogs need throughout the day!

About: I’ve had pets my whole life. I love dogs and cats. I love animals and have no problem spending my free time taking care of and playing with some fur babies. I have a pug that I've had since she was 6 weeks old. I also have a cat who I took in after his old owner abandoned him. I currently work full time Monday-Friday 8-5pm in Charlottesville. I am more than happy to stop by after work if needed or if you want me to stay at your place I can take care of the babies before heading to work to make sure they are fed and worked. Can work with a lot of schedules. I do make and sell jewelry so there may be a few weekend days where my availability is limited due to already committed to a craft show In my house I try and take my dog out every 2 hours. In the summer my pug is sensitive to heat so we do short walks around our driveway. She is a bit spoiled and will not go outside in the rain so I do also have experience cleaning up puppy pads and encouraging their use. My cat is both indoors and outdoors so he goes to the bathroom outside but also have a litter box inside I clean every few days for him.

“Amy looked after our dog for the first time this weekend and she was absolutely wonderful. She asked great questions about meals, walks and our dog's routine and was very thorough in every detail. Amy kept us updated with photos and messages so we never wondered how things were going. Our usually shy dog warmed up to her immediately and I felt completely at ease being away knowing our dog was in such caring hands. We will absolutely work with her again!”

“Our cat was so happy when we came home, but we could tell he was also so happy with Maddie. Great care taker, he was cleaning himself and loving pets.”
