Cat Sitting Zimmerman

About: I’ve been around animals all my life. I have three goldendoodles, Sullie who’s 10, Allie who’s 5, and Marlie who’s 2. I have helped potty train them all and have taught them basic tricks. I have also cared for friends/families pets when in need. I love all animals and enjoy making them feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, medications, or extra cuddles, I’m happy to help. I’m currently a full-time nursing student and have a summer nurse internship working 12 hour shifts, but I have multiple days off throughout the week that allow me to spend quality time caring for pets. My schedule varies, so I keep my availability updated. When I’m caring for your pet, they’ll get lots of attention, love, and dependable care! I always try to stick to each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and stress free. In your home, I will provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box cleanup, potty breaks, and lots of attention and affection. I also make sure the home is left clean and secure. I’ll also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pet is doing well!

About: I have had dogs for 24 years, cats for 16. My husband and I have fostered to adoption nearly 60 cats and dogs. After struggling to find quality affordable boarding care for our pets we have decided to open our home to others in the same situation. We have cared for puppies and kittens from 6 weeks up and have fully fenced yard. Our house has kids and pets but we are able to separate as needed. We work outside of the home M-F and if you need care outside the weekend we prefer if you have a kennel for your pet. This is something we can chat about and we have watched many dogs who do not have kennels as well. Please just reach out and ask us questions to see if we are good fit for your pet to feel comfortable while you are gone. Jen and Josh are both home on weekends so there is plenty of time for play time or walks in our schedules. We also have a 12 and 15 year old available to help with extra playtime or attention needs. We do have experience with giving oral medication and eye ointments but not injections. We have a fully fenced yard and a 3 level home to keep pets safe as needed. We have 2 very friendly dogs to keep your pet company but if they prefer to be alone there is enough space to keep them separate. We also have 2 cats that are very friendly to other animals but they can also be kept separate if needed. Our home has 3 kids (2 older and 1 preschooler) that have been taught to give animals respect and space. If you are comfortable with them interacting with your pet they can help or we can make sure there are only adults interacting with your pet.

“This was our first experience with using Rover.com and it couldn't have gone better! We met Carrie the day before and were very comfortable leaving our fur babies in her care and giving her the key to our home. We received updates and photos of our pups while in her care. We were able to enjoy our time away without having any worries. We would recommend her to others and will definitely be calling on her again in the future. Thanks Carrie!!”

“Cori really loved on my pets and catered to my extra requests. She went above and beyond to carry unexpected large boxes into the garage. She also cleaned my house. Will book again!”

“Alexis did very well with Husker. He is very leery of new people and she was patient with him. Was even able to get him to calm down enough to go for a walk. We have now hired Alexis for a 5 night overnight stay.”

“Megan did a couple drop-ins for my dog Milo and I have no complaints! She was willing to swing by over the weekend to meet him before she dropped in which was much appreciated. She is friendly and provides photos and great reports of how Milo is doing when she drops in. I hate to leave him home for so long but it gives me some peace of mind knowing that he has a new buddy to come visit him during the day. :)”

About: I’ve always loved taking care of animals especially dogs and cats! I have 2 dogs (mini dachshund and german shepherd) and a cat, so I’m used to taking care of diverse pets. I’m comfortable with taking care of feeding, walking, playtime, potty breaks, giving lots of attention, and making the pets feel comfortable while you are gone. I’ve been trusted watching family, friends and neighbors pets for years now! I’m a very patient, responsible owner and I love spending time with animals! I am currently in school 3 days a week in the mornings so I will have plenty of time to watch your pets! I’m at home most of the time. I am available on weekends fully, weekdays I am open after 12pm! (Mondays after 3 because of long classes) Making pets feel comfortable and safe if the most important thing to me! At home, I make sure they have plenty of attention, food, and clean water. I love cuddling and playing with them. I take my pups on walks and ensure they’re safe. I’m able to follow your pets daily routine as close as possible. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks and anything else you need. I’m also here to help keep your space tidy! But most important, I am here to give all the love and attention your pet needs.

“Absolutely wonderful. Megan gave great updates and had incredible repartee with our cat Kluber. I will be using her services again!”

“Mary was fantastic to work with! We needed help since we were on a time crunch and so was so kind and thoughtful when we met with her prior to our scheduled drop in visits. Ryder had a great time with here as well!”

“First time Rover user and I picked Lauren based on her 5-star reviews. Lauren was great, she is super nice, she paid attention to some dog specific things, and most importantly the dogs loved her. She is highly recommended and I definitely will be using her again in the future.”

About: I have owned and taken care of numerous breeds of dogs. They range from all types of bully breeds, various mastiff breeds, terriers, and more. I am very comfortable with multiple types of dog personalities and have also trained several dogs. I am retired and able to spend quality time with your pet. Your pet will be in my home with me and my wife. I love to spend my time outside or relaxing in my large yard! I can offer numerous potty breaks and am flexible with various schedules. We live on a lake with 3 acres of land. Your pet will be one of our family members and treated well with lots of playtime and cuddling. I currently have one dog who is very friendly with other dogs. I have a large yard with alot of wooded areas and very low traffic streets around me. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and on beds as we love to cuddle. However we follow your wishes, meaning if you prefer no bed then they will have plenty of dogs beds on the floor to sleep on.

“Christina took great care of our pets!”

About: I have raised several dogs from the time they were puppies. I have done obedience training with all of them. I truly enjoy the loyal companionship of a dog. I am currently on SSDI, so I am retired. I do have a karaoke DJ business, but that usually only takes me away one or two nights a month. I currently have a French bulldog who is fixed and he is very friendly with other dogs. I also have two cats, but I have the ability to separate them from the rest of the house.

About: I am a genuine animal lover, and really care for all aspects of their well-being. I have taken care of dogs all my life, whether that be washing, walking, grooming, or even cleaning them up after they have a puncture wound from a stick (yes that really happened to my dog). I am very attentive, as all animals are unpredictable, meaning I catch the small things before disaster may strike. Overall, I want your animal to stay healthy and feel loved while you are away! Currently, I am a college student who does her work online! So I’ve got plenty of time to walk and spend time with your fur babies! As of now, I would not be able to house any animals in my home. As for my clients home, I would make sure nothing fragile is out in the open to be broken/eaten by the animal. Also, putting everything back the way I found it/tidying up after playing, as nobody likes coming home to a mess. I have babysat for many years and understand these responsibilities.
