Cat Sitting in Troutville

“Emily was very personable. By the end of the week Lane (cat) was accepting of her. Lane is very stand-offish and takes some time to accept people.”

“Mandy is just the sweetest person and did a great job looking after our shy kitty. We got pictures and updates every day which I really appreciate. Will absolutely book her again. Thanks Mandy!”

“Amanda did everything I needed her to do. To my surprise one of them actually let her pet them and the other one came out of hiding. They don’t usually come out of hiding when people come to our house.”

“Kim was fantastic watching my two cats! I was gone for a little under a week and she was attentive to them and played with them when they wanted during her drop-ins. They both were happy when I came back and one who doesn't eat a lot when I'm gone had eaten more food than typical, so that was fantastic! I will definitely consider Kim in the future.”

“Sydney was great! Took great care of Luna and took the time to clean her ears and give the antibiotics for her ears. Sent several pictures and kept me updated on her everyday. So glad to have found Sydney and would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”

“Trina took very good care of our kitty and we highly recommend her services!”

“Heather has watched my dogs many times and they are always well taken care of. One of my pups needed medicine and my mother pup has a strict diet due to allergies and Heather always made sure their needs were met. Plus she’d always send cute photos while I was away to make sure I could see them having fun and that they were happy!”

“Cindy was very accommodating with a short notice visit. . She gladly stepped in with only a few days notice. She sent pictures and texts which gave us peace of mind that our dog, Ryder was receiving great care. I will definitely use her again in the future and highly recommend her for pet care.”

“Amy comes to the house to drop in on Penny. She is always polite and sends us pictures! The house is always the way we left it and Penny is always happy and well cared for!”

“Thanks for checking on the cats. Sorry I forgot the key. If you get this I can’t see where services are offered for house sitting for the future trip. 804.297.2988”

“Autumn Perdue would be a great candidate for working with your company and walking or dealing with dogs. She has kept my dog and had always taken great care of him. She has a dog and other animals of her own and has always treated them with kindness and respect. Animals, especially dogs, are her passion. I feel she would do your company proud.”

“Ali did an awesome job taking care of the kittens for us. Extremely happy with the care they received. Would highly recommend and will definitely use her again.”

“Kayla did s great job checking on Kitty Posh while we were away. Highly recommend Kayla.”

“Kelsi has always been a very attentive and vigorous person in which when she puts her mind to a task she will do everything in her power to complete it with flying colors. I know and believe she will be one of the best dog sitters considering that long ago she used to save kittens from the street when she was younger, a pregnant one at that! Nursed it back to health and help the mother cat give birth. In my book she’s more than qualified and trustworthy.”

About: I have almost always had a pet at home! Dogs, cats, fish, a rabbit, a turtle, just to name a few! Neighbors and friends have also trusted me with their homes and pets while they are out of town. I have experience with all types of dogs! Everything from energetic family pets to doggos with special needs, including trouble with vision, hearing, and heightened anxiety. If a dog isn't able to hear, I rely on visual cues to get their attention. If a dog has trouble seeing, I use auditory cues to let them know what's going on. Even if they don't understand what I'm saying, tone of voice makes a difference for them! Doggies with anxiety need a little extra comfort and TLC. We try their favorite toys and activities, or I give all the pets and loves! I am also experienced with older dogs who need a little extra care. No dog is too old for me! I help them on stairs, keep walks close to home in case they get tuckered out quickly, and look for stimulating activities that don't require as much movement if they have joint pain, such as tug-of-war or hiding treats under a cup for them to sniff out. I am mostly available evenings and Sundays! My schedule changes weekly, so I am not currently accepting repeating (long-term) bookings. However, I am happy to accept short-term care needs for your fur baby! I take time to understand the routines you have in place so your pet can get the best care possible! It's also important that you feel comfortable with me in your home and caring for your pet. I am responsible and respectful of your space; I am only there to make sure your pet is happy and well!

“Haley has watched my pets on numerous occasions. She has always gone above and beyond for my babies and done a fantastic job! She follows instructions perfectly and is always prompt to communicate any questions or concerns. I can’t recommend her more highly!!!”

“Brenna was GREAT! From the meet and greet, to sending pictures of our dogs at each visit. She took care of our two dogs as if they were hers. I highly recommend her sitting services and we WILL be using her for all of our trips in the future!”

“Steve and Wanda were great. The cats were happy which is always good! We will see them again soon!”

“Courtney did a fantastic job with our pups while we were gone. She was punctual each day, and I never worried that the dogs were alone for too long at any given time. Her updates were more than adequate, and everybody was happy! I'd definitely recommend her help to anybody looking for a stress-free dog sitter!”

“Riley has cared for pets her entire life and loves all animals. Her desire to care for people in her profession translates directly to her care for pets and other animals to keep them happy and healthy.”
