Cat Sitting in Ames Lake

About: Been taking care of pets both large and small in the vet field for around 10 years. Well versed in medication administration young or old Work full time. Plan to have many walks or check ins with your pets or availability to administer medications as needed to pets when I am booked. Can do overnights and mornings during work days but full days when I am not working. I have a gunner kennel for use while traveling. Comfortable with many kinds of breeds and collars and harnesses. Very active so able to get your pets excersize

“Eric did an amazing job of taking care of my two pups! They instantly connected with him & felt safe which gave me such a peace of mind being gone. He went above & beyond everyday with them both. Would definitely request his services again.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs for years and have experience with both large and small breeds. I currently help care for my two Saint Bernards and have also dog sat Australian Shepherds, Golden Retrievers, and smaller dogs with my mom. As a student-athlete, I’m very active and used to maintaining routines, so I can handle walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and giving pets lots of attention and exercise. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy being around animals. I’m a student-athlete, so staying active and responsible is already part of my daily routine. I lift every weekday morning from 9–10am and practice from 11am–12pm, which still gives me plenty of time during the afternoons, evenings, and weekends to care for your pets. I’m used to balancing a busy schedule while caring for my own dogs, so your pets will always get attention, exercise, and reliable care. I’ve grown up around dogs and currently care for two Saint Bernards, so I’m very comfortable with large breeds and dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I’ve also helped my mom dog sit Australian Shepherds, Golden Retrievers, and smaller dogs, so I’m experienced with a wide range of sizes and temperaments. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, exercised, and cared for while keeping owners updated and following any routines or instructions closely.

“Elizabeth is always wonderful with our aging cat, Cleo. She is a happy kitty when we get back home after all the loving care she receives. Applying her medicine twice daily, lots of play time, pettings, as well as taking great care of our house while we are away. I highly recommend Elizabeth.”

“Elizabeth was amazing! She was responsive to my request, communicative about her visit, and our pup had a great time. I will not hesitate to book her again, thanks Elizabeth!”

About: Our fur baby, Maggie, a chocolate lab recently passed away at 13. We'd had her since she was 8 weeks so the house feels too quiet now. We miss her so much and while we can't commit to getting our own dog again just yet, we'd love to help care for your fur baby while you travel. Since we do have two kids though we need to ensure the pets we host are non-aggressive and good with kids. My husband and I work full time from home and we miss our daily walks with Maggie. Our schedules allow for the flexibility for walks, potty breaks, and play time. We're fortunate that we have a high, privacy fenced in yard to allow for great outdoor play time. We will only host one dog at a time so your special pet will receive 1x1 care. We do have children so it's important your dog has been around kids before.

About: No time spent with a pet is wasted! I love animals so much, and am super accommodating to the type of attention they want. My cats and dog are so important to me-as I imagine yours are to you-so I’d love to help take care of yours while you’re away! I am currently working freelance roles, so my availability is very open and flexible. This means I’m happy to accommodate yours pets usual routine times. Pets are so special. I will provide both a calming and/or energetic presence depending on their personality. I’m very reliable and on-time, and will make sure your pets needs and wants are met!

About: I have tons of experience with pet-sitting. I have my own 8 year old golden doodle at home that I love and care for. She has various health issues and I am always on top of giving her medication and also her shots she needs. I have dog sat before for my neighbors and also was a dog walker for a couple summers. I love to spend time outdoors and will play with your pet for hours! I am a very responsible adult and pride myself with my accountability and kindness. I am just home for the summer so I have no work obligations, which means I can be there for your pet 24/7! I love to spend time outdoors and enjoy long walks especially in the summer! I have a fur baby at home and have raised her for the last 8 years so I have experience with pets. I take her on daily long walks and love to take her to the dog park to run around!

“Andi was conscientious and took good care of our senior cats. They are both on medication. She didn’t have any problems administering it. Spent time getting both cats to warm up to her.”

“Jeany was so great! My cat seemed to love her! She took a good amount of photos, cleaned up any messes, and had plenty of cuddle time with our gal. Next time we are away she will be my go to, if she is available that is. Thank you for giving us peace of mind Jeany.”

“Ace helped us out on short notice to look in on Sully on days we were out. Sully got his lunch and exercise every day and Ace sent photos and updates. I really appreciated the quick communications I got back from Ace on any questions I had, and am very happy with the love and care that was provided!”

About: I have been taken care of dogs and cats for my friend and family many times. And my daughter also loves animals. I love taking dogs on walks. The community in which I live has great sidewalks for dog walking. I am currently working part time at home, so I will have plenty of time to play around and walk outside with your fur babies~ A safe, quiet, and clean environment for your fur babies to stay. fenced backyard for them to walk and play. We don’t have own pets, only accept dog or cat up to 2 in the same period.

“Timea is an absolute star sitter. She is wonderful with our two cats, making sure they get some much needed pets and treats at each visit, and keeps us well informed after each check in. We are repeat customers who can't recommend her services enough!”

“Highly recommended! We reached out to Yihua to see if she could take care of Hacker, while we were away on a business trip. She responded promptly and arranged a meet-and-greet ahead of time to meet us and Hacker, which immediately gave us confidence. During the visit, she carefully asked about Hacker’s daily routines, feeding preferences, and any additional tasks needed for each visit. We told her that besides changing the water and refilling dry cat food, it would be great if she could also give him a lick-able cat treat and 10–12 pieces of cat's multivitamin each time. She took detailed notes and made sure everything was clear. Throughout the week we were away, Yihua did an outstanding job. She not only took wonderful care of Hacker and spent time playing with him, but also sent us plenty of photos and short videos, which really reassured us while we were out. When we returned home, Hacker was in great condition. It was obvious he had been very well cared for. We will definitely be reaching out to Yihua again for pet sitting in the future!”

“Cara was fantastic taking care of our three spoiled cat children, all with specific needs, medications, etc. Our cats LOVED her, she took the time to play with them every visit and made sure they had everything they needed. We will absolutely be using Cara again any time we go out of town, for a night or for a few weeks. Thank you!!!!”

“Lindsay was wonderful! She took a ton of photos of my cats and provided descriptive updates on their wellbeing while I was gone. She went above and beyond with her care, including daily subcutaneous injections for my elderly cat, and both of them were happy when I got home. Would definitely recommend her care!”
