Cat Sitting Alder Creek

About: I've taken care of cats for 30 years and have always loved all Animals, even those that many are scared of. I take the care of Pets very seriously to ensure they are always safe, comfortable, and happy. It's a tailored experience because no two Animals are alike. I currently have a very flexible work schedule and can easily check in on Cats throughout the day, 7 days a week. I do not travel during holidays, I stay home with my own Cat and Dog so I am available for all the major and minor holidays. I do have my own Cat and Dog but I would not bring either on trips to care for a Client's Cat. The safety and comfort of a Client's cat in their own home while their parents are away is the most important part of this process.

“Monica was great! I was never stressed about logistics of care for my cat! My cat seemed to adjust quickly to her and was perfectly content when I returned home!”

“Luke was amazing! He accepted my request last minute and was able to care for multiple dogs with ease. He gave great updates when he was on his way and how each visit went with pictures and details. I didn't feel worried while I was away at all. He is also very mindful when it comes to your home which I really appreciated. 100% recommend and will book with him in the future.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 14, watching over neighbors’ and others’ animals, including dogs, snakes, a bearded dragon, and cats. I’ve also had cats of my own since I was 8—five in total—and currently care for two on my own. What makes me stand out as a sitter is my ability to connect with animals, especially those that take time to warm up to new people. I’m patient, observant, and always prioritize their comfort. Whether it’s recognizing subtle body language, engaging in enrichment activities, or simply providing calm companionship, I adapt to each pet’s individual needs. In addition to pet care, I have worked as a nanny for young children (ages 4, 2, and 6 months). This experience has strengthened my attentiveness, patience, and ability to balance multiple responsibilities at once—skills that also translate into pet care. I’m experienced in maintaining structured routines, ensuring safety, and providing comfort, which makes me well-equipped to care for pets with different personalities and needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own, offering not just basic care but also companionship and reassurance. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pet and make them feel at ease while you’re away! I will have to go home to feed and spend some time with my two kitties, Pumpkin & Hazelnut, but I also always find time to spend time with your pets as well. As of now I am looking for employment so my schedule is pretty open I provide pet care in the comfort of your home, ensuring your pet stays in a familiar and stress-free environment. Every pet is different, so I follow your specific routines, guidelines, and house rules to keep things as consistent as possible. Whether it’s feeding schedules, walk routines, playtime, or medication needs, I prioritize your pet’s well-being and comfort while respecting your home. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I take extra care to follow any instructions you provide, from home security measures to special pet needs. I also keep you updated with messages, photos, or check-ins so you have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care so your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for in their own space.

About: I’m Lauren—Keeper of Cats, Walker of Dogs, with 25 years of experience caring for animals of all ages and personalities. My approach is quiet, steady, and respectful of each pet’s natural rhythm. Cats are my specialty. I’m comfortable with shy, senior, independent, or affectionate cats, and I follow their lead. I’ve handled medication, special diets, and slow‑paced routines with care. For dogs, I focus on gentle, unhurried walks and calm companionship while still providing full dog care—walks, feeding, playtime, and routine support. I’m a great fit for friendly, easygoing dogs who enjoy steady energy and consistent routines. Services include: • Cat visits, meds, litter care • Dog walks & drop‑ins • Overnights for cats or mellow dogs • Fish feeding • Thoughtful updates + photos If your pets prefer a peaceful presence and steady hands, I’d love to care for them. I work full‑time from home in an emotionally heavy line of work, and caring for animals is the bright, grounding rhythm that keeps me balanced. Stepping away to spend time with your pets—whether it’s a quiet cat visit or a peaceful walk—adds light and calm to my week, and I’m grateful for it. I care for pets by keeping their world steady. In your home, I follow your routines—feeding, litter care, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I move at your pet’s pace, whether that means quiet company or active engagement, all while keeping your space tidy and your pets grounded and comfortable.

About: Hi there! 🐾 I genuinely love animals! I've spent the past 5 years caring for cats and dogs, including my own pets. I'm comfortable with all kinds of personalities, including shy, energetic, anxious, and reactive pets. I understand that every animal is different, and I'm happy to be patient and let them warm up to me at their own pace. Whether your pet loves going on walks, playing, cuddling, or just having someone nearby, I'm happy to give them the attention and care they need! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home. I'm big on communication and will gladly send pictures and updates throughout our time together so you know your furry family member is doing well. I'm also comfortable with house sitting, following detailed instructions, and respecting your home and your pet's normal routine. I don't mind cameras in shared spaces, and I want you to feel completely at ease while you're away. My goal is simple: happy pets and peace of mind for you! 🐶🐱🧡 I'm available on both weekdays and weekends! 🐾 I do have a full-time job, but I have flexibility with my schedule and can make adjustments ahead of confirmed bookings. I primarily offer house sitting and dog walking. For overnight stays, I'm happy to stay in a guest room if one is available! Since I live in Orangevale, I'm also open to arranging visits throughout the day and returning to my own home at night, depending on your pet's needs. I'm always happy to talk through expectations and schedules before confirming a booking to make sure we're a great fit! I love keeping pets happy, active, and mentally stimulated! 🐾 For dogs, a typical day might include walks around the neighborhood, playtime with their favorite toys, and plenty of attention and cuddles. If they're comfortable in public spaces and their owner approves, I'm happy to take them to a nearby park for some extra outdoor time! For cats, I love interactive playtime with their favorite toys, giving them pets when they're in the mood, or simply hanging out and keeping them company. I always adjust activities based on each pet's energy level, personality, and routine. Whether they're full of energy or prefer a relaxing day, I'm happy to match their vibe!

“Felicia was absolutely incredible! I was nervous because our dog does not usually like strangers, but Felicia's countenance and love of animals won our Pyraness over instantly. I am so very grateful to have found Felicia. She went above and beyond....she even came over at the last minute for a meet and greet as it was a last minute booking. Highly, highly recommend!!”

About: As a cat mom of two, I truly understand that every cat has their own little personality. 🐾 I’m patient, attentive, and will make sure your kitty feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. 💕 Im currently working full time, but during my down times I can come care for your cats and watch them. Im looking to make extra money on the side to save up for my wedding, and it truly brings me joy that I can do that, while doing something that Comes so naturally to me, aka loving them cats:) Im extremely affectionate and also careful with my own two babies. I love all cats like my own, and understand that being careful around them and for them is key

“I recently had Madison house sit and pet sit for nearly two weeks, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She took wonderful care of my cat, playing with him multiple times a day and regularly sending pictures so I always knew how he was doing. It's clear she genuinely loves animals. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat, just as I had left him. Madison was also incredibly responsive throughout the stay. Any time I had a question, she replied quickly and put my mind at ease. She also left the house in great shape, which I really appreciated. Leaving your pet with someone new can be a worrisome experience, but I never felt anxious once with Madison. I was completely at ease knowing my cat and home were in such capable, caring hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive pet sitter, and I will absolutely be hiring her again without hesitation.”

About: My family got our first pet dog when I was 7 and I quickly became the one responsible for grooming, bathing, walking and slight training. I cared for my dog from his puppy stages to his senior stage. I am experienced with accommodating routines for all stages of a dogs life. I often take pictures of pets, with owners consent, while they are in my care. After every visit, you will most likely receive a lot of cute/silly pictures of what your pet was doing. I am very careful about the animals and I make sure they are safe and enjoying themselves while in my care. I am a college student so when im not in class or studying, I am available to take care of your pet for as long as needed! I understand more energetic pets need a little more attention and I can work that into my schedule! When I care for pets, whether at my home or a client’s, I make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, and get plenty of playtime and attention. I stick to their routine, like feeding schedules or giving any meds, so they feel comfortable and safe. I keep their space clean, make sure there’s nothing dangerous they can get into, and watch for any signs they’re not feeling well. My goal is to keep them happy, healthy, and relaxed, especially if their owner isn’t around

“Ayla was fabulous. She took great care of our two cats and parrot for 11 days. She sent us photos and video of every visit and she spent a lot of time playing with them. I hope she will be available next time we need a sitter. I would highly recommend Ayla!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have been caring for other people’s pets since high school. Throughout high school and college, I regularly dog- and cat-sat for friends, neighbors, and friends of friends, gaining hands-on experience with a variety of animals, personalities, and routines. My experience includes overnight pet sitting, caring for multiple pets at once, looking after puppies, and administering medications. I’m comfortable stepping in to maintain pets’ usual feeding, exercise, and care routines while their owners are away, whether that means caring for one pet or managing the needs of a whole household of animals. Pet sitting is something I genuinely enjoy, and after years of caring for animals both growing up and independently, I’ve developed a good understanding of the responsibility involved and take pride in providing dependable, attentive care. I recently moved back home after spending 10 months living in Madrid, and I currently work part-time remotely. Because of my flexible schedule, I can accommodate a variety of pet care needs, whether that's daytime walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, or keeping your pet company throughout the day. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I'm committed to being reliable, communicative, and making sure your pet receives the attention and care they deserve. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I know that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to learn what makes them feel most comfortable and stick as closely as possible to their normal routine. I pay close attention to body language and behavior to recognize when a pet is relaxed, excited, or anxious. Whether we're going for walks, playing, feeding, or just relaxing together, I strive to create a calm, positive environment where your pet feels safe, cared for, and loved. I also understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful for both you and your pet. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your fur baby is happy, safe, and in good hands!!

“Mckenzi is reliable, thorough, and great to work with! She put my mind at ease taking care of my cats when I was thousands of miles away. She also put my cats at ease-- they are super shy but they came out to see her! Thanks Mckenzi!”

“Lexie was kind, very timely, and obviously experienced with dogs (I say this because our dogs can be quite loud which can be off putting to those with no experience to loud, large dogs). She followed instructions to a tee and our dogs immediately got along well. Will definitely reach out again for future pet services!”

“Whitney went the extra mile in her care for our cat, Tigger. He was happy I could tell because Whitney took a video of him every time she came and a picture when she left. It felt that he is while I was away and will definitely have Whitney back. 😻”

About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies, kittens, and senior pets. I have walked dogs of all sizes and breeds, including both trained and untrained dogs. I am comfortable caring for pets with special needs and have experience giving medications to sick pets. As a proud Golden Retriever owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your pet. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing them with love, attention, exercise, and a safe environment while you’re away. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, companionship, medication, or extra care, I am dedicated to making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I am currently waiting for college enrollment. As I prepare for college, I have a lot of free time and a flexible schedule to dedicate to caring for pets. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow their regular routine to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide fresh food and water, walks, playtime, exercise, companionship, and lots of attention. I can also administer medications if needed and make sure the home stays clean and tidy. If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment where they receive plenty of supervision, exercise, affection, and care. I make sure pets have a comfortable place to rest, stick to their feeding schedule, and get the attention they need throughout the day. My goal is always to make pets feel loved, safe, and stress-free while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands.
