Cat Sitting Youngberg

“This was our first time using Rover services and these two were fabulous. They took care of our "kids" and were very respectful of our space.”

“My babies love Stephanie. Even the one who is skittish about anyone other than his Mom. This was the first time I was gone a week and there were no issues. I am completely comfortable with Stephanie taking care of the two.”

About: I have had a wide variety of pets that I have cared for. I love cats and dogs of all sizes and varieties! I have cared for pets just out of surgery as well as older pets with various issues. I am retired and need something to occupy my time! I am available day or night. I am willing to help however I am needed. I want to keep the closest routine as possible for all pets for the least amount of disruption so I will cater to them! I will need detailed instructions and expectations to make sure all visits go as planned.

About: I treat your pet like my own. (I have a 2 year old Australian shepherd and a 4 year old cat, both of whom I love dearly.) And I’m a classically trained artist who offers a one time 15% off pet portrait prices for people who book house sitting with me for over 7 days. I’ve been pet sitting since I was a child and my friends, family and neighbors have all hired me to look after their animals. As you can see by my photos, I’ve taken care of everything from dogs and cats to chickens! I would love to introduce myself to your fur-baby and see if we’re a good fit. Although I will stay the entire night with your pet, I will occasionally need time away to go to the grocery store and run errands. If your pet needs 24 hours of care, I can provide this for $50 more per night. Feel free to specify this in our initial point of communication. I’m currently working 9:30 am to 5:30 pm Fridays and Saterdays and am completely available Sunday-Thursday. (I’m available to stay on the weekend if your pet doesn’t need one on one time from 9:30 am to 5:30 pm Fridays and Saturdays.) I am a diligent note taker when given instructions and have no problems clarifying instructions that aren’t clear. I follow those instructions to the tee.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Book. Her. Immediately. Brea took exceptional care of our FELV kiddos, Cecil and Carla, and we truly could not have asked for a better sitter. From day one, her updates were thoughtful, detailed, and downright joyful to read — we looked forward to every check-in. She somehow immediately won over our extremely shy Carla (a true miracle), and Cecil — who is known for avoiding dinner — happily ate the food Brea put out for him like an absolute champ. That alone speaks volumes. Brea has such a natural, intuitive way with animals. She built genuine relationships with our cats, gave them so much love, snuggles, playtime, and reassurance, and treated them as if they were her own. Every update left us feeling calm, confident, and so grateful. We came home to happy, settled, well-loved kitties — the ultimate sign of a fantastic sitter. We cannot wait to book Brea again, and we recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone kind, attentive, and truly special. 💛🐾”

About: I have over 2 years of experience dog sitting and walking, and I genuinely love getting to know each pup’s personality.I’ve mostly worked with small to medium dogs, but I’ve also cared for big breeds like Great Danes—so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes! Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company, I always stick to your dog’s routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I’m reliable, patient, and will treat your dog like my own 💛 You can also expect lots of updates and cute pictures while you’re away! Pet care fits easily into my routine as a Radiologic Tech student. I am available anytime Friday through Sundays for walks, check-ins, and housesitting. I keep pets safe and comfortable based on the client's home and backyard. I follow instructions closely and can crate dogs if that’s part of their normal routine.

About: I’ve taking care of dogs and cats my whole life. I live in an apartment and have two cats. I love dogs and I can’t have one here in the apartment complex. So this is my way I can get my needs met. I’m a very caring and dedicated person to my clients and their dogs and cats. I have two cats and they love sitting with me and watching TV. I mean it they watch TV with me. My one cat has to smell every food that I eat. She won’t always eat it but she has to smell it or she won’t leave me alone. Love that girl. I live in an apartment but I can easily drop in feed, walk them and play with them. Staying overnight is fine with me as well.

“Chase was very easy to work with and schedule for visits. He and Badger got along very well. His visits included great pictures and a little narrative at each visit.”

About: Hi! I've spent many years caring for a wide variety of animals, including cats, dogs, birds, horses, and goats. My experience with both household pets and larger animals has taught me how to recognize different personalities, understand animal behavior, and provide attentive, compassionate care. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, feeding, playtime, exercise, companionship, or extra patience and attention, I'm committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I understand that trusting someone with your pets is a big decision, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. I pride myself on being dependable, detail-oriented, and communicative. You can expect regular updates and photos during each visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. I work from home Monday-Friday. I have a few brakes throughout my day. I can stop by on one of my breaks or after I get off work at 2pm. I have a fenced in yard surround by a block wall. We live on a quiet street in a quiet neighborhood. I have 2 pretty good doggos. We will go on walks when its cooler in the day. We have some toys to play with. We will play tug o war and fetch.

“Excellent cat sitter! She was reliable, communicative, and took great care of my cats while I was out of town. She followed all instructions and kept me updated throughout the trip, which I really appreciated. Everything was handled exactly as expected, and I returned home to two happy cats. Highly recommend, and I'll definitely be using her again for future trips.”

“Monica was great. I have 4 Brittany’s and she was very good with them. I would definitely use her services again!”

“I can't say enough great things about Therese! She took such amazing care of my dogs, and it was clear they absolutely loved her. She provided detailed updates during each visit, along with plenty of photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Knowing my dogs were not only well cared for but also happy and loved made all the difference. If you're looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter, I highly recommend Therese—she truly goes above and beyond!”

About: Animals have been part of my life for decades. I currently share my home with three small dogs, a senior rescue dog, and a backyard hen, and over the years I've cared for large breeds, rescue dogs, chickens, fish, birds, cats, and hamsters. Every animal has taught me that each one has a unique personality, preferences, and way of communicating. I'm especially comfortable caring for senior companions and understand that they often need extra patience, a slower pace, medications, and a consistent routine. I know how important it is to earn an animal's trust rather than expect it. When I'm caring for your companion, my goal is simple: to make them feel safe, respected, and loved while you're away. I'll pay attention to the little things that make them who they are, follow your instructions carefully, and keep you updated so you can travel with confidence, knowing they're in caring hands. I still have a couple years until retirement and work during the week, so I am currently only offering weekend house drop-ins, no overnights at this time. I understand that every companion has their own routine, personality, and comfort level. My first priority is to learn how you care for them at home so I can provide as much consistency as possible while you're away. In your home, I'll carefully follow your feeding schedule, exercise routine, medication instructions, and any special requests. I'll keep doors, gates, and leashes secure, pay close attention during walks and outdoor time, and always be mindful of your companion's safety and well-being. I'll also keep you informed with regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. My goal is for your companion to feel safe, cared for, and respected, and for you to return home knowing they received the same thoughtful care I would want for my own animals.

“We have used Janae several times and she always comes through with an excellent job. We'll use her again.”

About: I had a dog since I was 13-28. The dog lived to be over 16. Recently, my ex took our dog because he has better availability to let her out and give her the best life. Anyways, I love pets. I feel like i’m supposed to hype myself up more, but I feel like your pet will tell you whether or not i’m worthy. I work 8-5 M-F. W-F I could probably let a dog out. I’ll mainly just be available weekends, though. Thank you so very, very much! In my home I have a small backyard they can potty in. I also have a dog park nearby. In your home I will do whatever walk or potty schedule you would like.

“My babies and I just love Amber! You know someone cares about your pets, when they text during a drop-in visit, asking if it’s okay if they stay a bit longer! ❤️”

About: Please note: there is a glitch in the Rover platform in terms of star ratings. Support is working on it. I have an excellent history and will take great care of your pet. Please contact Rover support for clarification as they work on resolving that issue. I've always been a huge dog lover! In addition to helping pet sit for friends and family, I’ve been lucky enough to take in four foster pups of my own. Unfortunately, I lost three of them in the past few years, which has only made me want to spend even more time with dogs. In lieu of getting more of my own, I decided that I want to be of service to the animals and their owners. I’ve always enjoyed the experience and I’m happy to help out other owners and pooches in need. Over the years, I've cared for dozens of dogs and have rescued four. My last of the four is Gizzy, a little Shitzu. I take him with me to work and out and about. He's my little buddy! I love having a connection with dogs, and Gizzy and I have definitely fused a very strong bond between us. He is very friendly and loves other pups, so your pooch will always have a friend around. Making sure that both you and your pup feel completely comfortable and well taken care of us my number one goal. I always make sure to treat you and your pup with the utmost respect. During a stay, I’ll make sure to keep in daily contact by way of text and picture messages so you can know exactly how your pup is getting along and what we’ve done that day. I’ll treat them as if they were my own! I’ll keep your dog on a schedule as close to what they’re used to as possible. We’ll play with their favorite toys. They can sleep with me and will get a lot of snuggles and pets from me. I don’t have any breed restrictions, but I always like to schedule a meet-and-greet for new clients. I always try to get to a dog’s level and make them feel as comfortable as possible with me by letting them smell my hand, finding their favorite scratch spot, using a soft, fun voice to talk to them, and letting them take their time to get used to me.

“Jennifer did a wonderful job taking care of our cats and they warmed up to her immediately. Her great notes, pictures, and video updates while we were away put our minds at complete ease!”

About: I have had dogs most of my life. Senior dogs love me. Compassionate and quiet household where all dogs are welcome. I am very active and would be happy to take your pet for walks. I work a very flexible schedule and I am able to meet most needs easily, whether that is in my own home or in yours. I have a small yard and a portable pet fence for outdoor time. Inside, pets are welcome to roam but I do have a pet porter available. Loving, quiet home will help make your pets feel safe.

“Robyn is incredible. She came to the rescue during an emergency without even blinking. Extremely Grateful for her kindness towards Hudson, and her excellent communication skills. ❤️🐾”
