Cat Sitting Avon

“Stefanie was the best choice for our little Sesame. He’s a very people-focused kitten, so we were a little anxious leaving him with someone else, but we immediately knew he would be in good hands. Stefanie made sure she was aware of all his habits, feeding preferences, etc. and sent us photos throughout his stay. She really put our minds at ease and we couldn’t recommend her more.”

“Absolutely do not hesitate to reach out to Megan for your pet care needs! At this point I don't even know how many times she has completed drop in visits for my two furry guys while we were away, they have been that numerous -- and all just wonderful! By now Megan has really bonded with both cats. The fact that they are familiar with her helps the time away from their sweet faces feel more bearable for me.”

“Shirley was very considerate of our requests. She was great with our dog, playing with him and bringing him treats. We would definitely use her again.”

“Tessa is truly a hidden gem! Not only did she take wonderful care of our cats and shower them with attention, but she also looked after our home and plants beautifully. She responded quickly to our messages, and when we returned, the house was spotless, as if she had never been there. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!”

About: I have always had pets including fish, cats, dogs and a chinchilla. I have pet sit 4 dogs at a time and house sat for family and friends. Over the summer I work, go to school and play sports part time, but I have a good amount of time in the morning and afternoon to check in on all animals! I have a fenced backyard, friendly dogs and experience with dogs and cats. In your home I will ask for specific instructions on pet and home care to ensure the best care and experience with your pets!

About: I'm a retired officer, background-checked through Rover, and have more than 10 years of experience caring for my own dogs as well as friends', family members', and clients' pets. Throughout my career and personal life, responsibility, trustworthiness, and attention to detail have always been important to me, and I bring those same qualities to every pet I care for. In 2016, I adopted Barney the Shih Tzu, followed by Jack in 2019. Both were estimated to be about four years old at the time. In 2025, Jack passed away from bone cancer, giving me firsthand experience caring for a senior dog with significant medical needs. In 2022, I rescued Penny, the white pup in my profile photo. Certifications & Experience • Cat & Dog First Aid (American Red Cross) • Experience administering oral medications • Experience caring for senior pets and pets with special needs • Experience caring for dogs and cats of various ages, sizes, and temperaments, including a large Rottweiler I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, consistency, and individualized care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, senior and slower-paced, or simply happiest sticking to a familiar routine, my goal is to provide dependable care while helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I'm home much of the time. This allows me to provide regular companionship, potty breaks, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. Because I intentionally limit the number of pets I care for at one time, I am able to provide a more personalized level of attention and maintain a calmer environment for the pets in my care. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I strive to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. Consistency helps pets feel comfortable, secure, and relaxed while their owners are away. My schedule is generally flexible, allowing me to accommodate a variety of care needs, including daycare, overnight care, drop-in visits, and pet sitting in a client's home. Pick-up and drop-off service may be available depending on distance and scheduling. My dogs are part of the family and spend much of their time relaxing near us, on the furniture, or curled up on a lap. Visiting pets are treated with the same level of care, attention, and companionship while in my home. Dogs are welcome on furniture unless owners request otherwise. I intentionally limit the number of guest dogs I accept at one time to help create a calm, safe, and low-stress environment. This allows me to provide close supervision and a more personalized experience than many high-volume pet care settings. If you prefer your dog to be crated for sleeping, feeding, or when unattended, I'm happy to accommodate as long as a crate is provided. Visiting dogs should be reasonably housebroken, with exceptions considered on a case-by-case basis for puppies and special circumstances. Meet-and-greets are strongly preferred whenever possible before services begin. They allow me to learn about your pet's personality, needs, and comfort level while helping determine whether my home and care style are a good fit. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the owner's home, providing dependable care, companionship, exercise, and attentive supervision. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, consistency, and respect. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable environment where pets can feel relaxed, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away.

About: I bring more than 20 years of professional experience in veterinary medicine and animal welfare, caring for pets and supporting the people who love them. My background includes veterinary hospital leadership and many years with the San Francisco SPCA, and I'm also Fear Free Certified. I have extensive experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and needs, including puppies, seniors, anxious or fearful pets, multi-pet households, medication routines, and pets who may need a little extra patience and attention. My Fear Free training helps me recognize signs of fear, anxiety, and stress and adjust my approach so each pet can feel as safe and comfortable as possible. My veterinary background also means I pay attention to the little things. I'm accustomed to noticing changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, energy, or overall wellbeing and communicating concerns promptly. Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care. I'll treat your pets like they're my own, follow their routines closely, and make sure you get plenty of updates and photos while you're away. My schedule is currently very flexible, which gives me plenty of availability for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I'm available weekdays and weekends and can accommodate morning, daytime, and evening visits. I also understand how important consistency is for pets, so I'll do my best to keep their normal feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routines intact while you're away. With my experience in veterinary medicine and animal welfare and Fear Free certification, I'm very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, behaviors, ages, and needs. When caring for pets in your home, I'll follow your instructions closely and treat your home with the same care and respect I'd want someone to show mine. I'll double-check doors, gates, leashes, and other safety details, keep your pet's environment clean, and provide updates and photos so you always know how things are going. I know you're trusting me with two things that matter enormously—your pet and your home—and I don't take either responsibility lightly.

“We just got home from our trip and we're happy to have Cristal take good care of our cats. She's been amazing in giving daily updates and photos, and for her extra care and effort, which made us at ease while we're away. I'll definitely be booking her in the future!”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, from little puppies and kittens to older pals who need extra care. My own elderly cat and dogs have needed ear drops, oral medicine, and insulin injections. I don’t just fill the bowls and leave. I stay for real visits with play, treats, cuddles, or quiet time, whatever helps your pet feel at home. Every animal is different. Some want lots of affection and some need space. That’s fine with me. Even the ones who like distance still get attention in a way that feels right for them. I’m happy to care for birds, fish, bugs, or other small pets too, as long as you show me what to do. I can also water plants, bring in the mail, and help with other little house things. Your pets feel safe and loved while you’re away, and you feel at ease knowing they’re in good hands! I work remotely from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate visits throughout the day. I’m generally available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, with the only exceptions being occasional scheduled work meetings. I know my meeting schedule in advance, so we can coordinate visit times ahead of booking to make sure I’m available when your pets need me! I treat every client's home with the same care and respect that I would want someone to show my own home. I’m mindful of keeping things clean, following your instructions and routines, and making sure your pets are comfortable in their familiar environment. I understand how much trust it takes to let someone into your home and care for your animals, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to make your time away as worry free as possible, knowing both your pets and your home are in good hands.

About: For the time being, I only care for cats. I don't own a dog, only 2 rescued cats. I used to own a Siberian Husky who went to a doggie heaven and fostered a GSD-Malamute mixed dog that got adopted by a wonderful family. I don't offer a service to care for a cat that needs any type of medication. I am a stay at home mom, mother of two, and I'm home most of the time so I can care for your fur baby. I have two cats are indoor so I make sure that they stay inside. They are fully vaccinated, have their rabies shot updated, spayed/neutered and microchipped. They are provided with a stimulating environment with fresh food, clean water, and a clean litterbox.

“Nathan was a fantastic help taking care of our cat while we were away. He was very communicative with how our cat was doing and with any questions he had which was greatly appreciated.”

“Lily was great! She took excellent care of my kitten and was very responsive with updates, pictures. I will definitely reach out to Lily again for future pet sitting.”

Adriana M.

“Saylor did an excellent job taking care of my kitties. She even earned the trust of the extremely timid one, which is a feat that no other sitter and many friends had failed to do previously. She was attentive throughout her stay with them, and it was clear to me that they felt cared for when I finally got home.”

About: Hi! I’m Haley, and animals have always been at the heart of my life. I share my home with three wonderful dogs—each with their own personality, special needs, and routines—which has taught me the importance of patience, positive reinforcement training, and gentle care. I have hands-on experience with: • Administering daily medications, allergy treatments, and special diets • Puppy training (basic commands, “leave it,” “stay,” leash work, and enrichment games) • Providing enrichment and mental stimulation (treat puzzles, scent games, and structured play) • Managing multi-dog households, including dogs with anxiety or reactivity • Prioritizing safety indoors and outdoors, including secure yard setups and supervised play I understand every pet is unique, and I’m dedicated to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved—whether it’s during a walk, a drop-in visit, or an overnight stay. I work every other week at Joybound until about 3 PM, which means I’m available mornings, evenings, and most weekends that week. On my off weeks, I’m fairly flexible and can offer daytime care, midday walks, and extra availability for drop-ins or house sitting. This rotating schedule helps me balance consistent, quality care and makes it easier to accommodate both regular and last-minute requests! 🏡 In my home: • I provide a calm, pet-safe environment with secure areas (indoors & yard). • Pets get daily enrichment like treat puzzles, scent games, and toy play to keep them mentally and physically engaged. • I stick to each pet’s feeding schedule and any medication routines they have. • Walks, potty breaks, and cuddle time are balanced around your pet’s normal routine so they feel at home. • Pets have cozy spots for rest, and I supervise interactions if there are multiple pets, making sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. 🏠 In your home: • I keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible — same walk routes, feeding times, play sessions, and sleep spots. • I follow your care instructions closely, including special diets, medications, or training rules you use. • I keep your home tidy: washing bowls, picking up waste, watering plants if requested, and bringing in mail/packages. • I give updates and photos so you can see your pets are happy and relaxed while you’re away.

“Alexis was amazing! She was super communicative throughout the booking and stay, providing daily pictures of Mac to let us know how he was doing.”

“Jessenia was so sweet and communicative. She went above and beyond, and from the photos my cat seemed to love her. I’ll definitely be booking again! :)”

About: I’ve been caring for friends’ and family members’ pets for years and genuinely love spending time with animals. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to follow each pet’s normal routine, including walks, feeding, playtime, and keeping them company. I’ve also given pets medications when needed, so I’m comfortable following instructions and making sure they receive their medication properly. I currently have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pets and work around their normal routine. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting depending on what you and your pet need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their normal routine and any instructions provided. I’m respectful of both your home and your pet’s space, and I always make sure they’re safe, comfortable, fed, and given plenty of attention while you’re away.

About: Hi, I’ve been dog sitting for awhile. Usually for friends. I have 2 small dogs, 5lb yorkie/maltese 10yr, and 8lb Pomeranian mix 12yr. They’re walked regularly, and on weekends, I usually take my dogs hiking. If I make other plans, such as a beach bonfire or camping trip, my dogs come along with me. Your dogs are more than welcome to join. I also have a fenced backyard and beds available for them indoor and outdoors. They’re fully vaccinated. I also have a well behaved cat that wants no part of anything. Not even me! She does her own thing and is the sweetest when she wants attention. I have experienced with special needs dogs with seizures and those that need meds, even freshly neutered and spayed. I’m doing weekends for now. F-Sun. Unless you’re ok with them staying at my house while I’m at work. I’ll be hybrid soon. I’m willing to stay at your place or bring them over to mine. They have free range of the house except the rooms and the fenced backyard. My dogs have free range of their food, they eat when they’re hungry. But if your dogs are a set schedule, I can accommodate that. My dogs know they’ll be on a set schedule as well.

About: I like to say I'm an animal whisperer ;). Have been pet sitting / caring for other's pets for over a decade but for my own pets my whole life. I'm confident, cognizant and sensitive to the needs of animals whether it's feeding, walking, playing, potential threats or health hazards. I have often sat for pet owners for multiple pets up to a month at a time. I have had pets my whole life (mainly cats / dogs) of many breeds, sizes, temperaments and health concerns or requirements. Growing up I had a bird, hermit crab, guinea pig, hamster, fish. When I worked at a public school I helped out with a cute bearded dragon! For overnights - I understand that when staying in their homes that I am to leave it in a cleanly condition and am comfortable asking questions in order to maintain those conditions the home was left in.*Please note I am looking for sits which I may bring my male Bernese Mountain Dog. He is good around cats & farm animals too!** I'm active person with a flexible schedule so pet care works out well. Owning my own dog, I am used to schedules + routines and can adjust easily to other dog's schedules or routines. Dogs get let out every 4-6 hours (or as needed), fed on their schedules, walks, hikes and/or outdoor play times, field trips. I treat their pets like I do my own: lots of TLC and cater to their needs as much as I can. For cats - depending on their nature (if indoor / outdoor), I like to make sure I am able to visibly see & check in with some TLC, play or just see to make sure they're safe!
