Cat Sitting in Babson Park

About: Hi! I’m Caroline, a lifelong pet lover with years of experience caring for cats and dogs of all personalities. I understand that every pet has their own unique quirks, routines, and needs, and I pride myself on providing loving, reliable, and attentive care that keeps them comfortable while you're away. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, medication, or just quiet companionship, I tailor each visit to suit your pet’s preferences. I also offer regular updates and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry family member is safe and happy. I treat every pet like my own with patience, respect, and lots of affection. Let me know how I can help! I currently work in biotech at an office job during the day Monday - Friday with some flexibility to be remote a day here and there, so I am available to stop by early mornings (5-7am) or after work (3-10pm) on days I’m at the office. I am available any time on weekends! At your home, I will be respectful of your space and the way you cater to your pet and their needs. I want to build a relationship to get to know you and your pet and will treat them as if they were my own!

“Kylie stopped in to bring my dog Patsy out when I had to work longer shifts at work. She was a great communicator and I felt very comfortable having her care for Patsy. I could tell Patsy loved her too based off how happy she looked in the photos Kylie sent! I would definitely recommend any of her services!”

About: Along with growing up with two dogs and helping to raise a puppy as a teenager, family friends and neighbors have relied on me to take care of their dogs and cats since I was ten. I've worked with all types of dogs, from Shih Tzus to Pit Bull mixes. I'm the one in my family who takes the dogs out on long hikes (or for short walks around the block once they get older), brushes their teeth and fur, gives them baths, and trims their nails. I'm a regular volunteer at cat shelters in cat care, and as a student on the pre-veterinary track, I have shadowed and volunteered at vet clinics to better understand the care that goes into your pets' health. Besides dogs and cats, I also have experience with a myriad of animals, such as hamsters, rabbits, chinchillas, guinea pigs, mice, fish, hermit crabs, geckos, snakes, tortoises, and turtles. I have experience in preparing special diets for pets and other animals with specific health needs, and in senior dog care. Over the summer, I work at my internships in animal care for much of the work day, but that leaves afternoons, evenings, and early mornings for me to check in on your pets and give any care they need (breakfast/dinner, walks, baths, etc.). Over the school year, I will have more hours available to fit in more time with your pets (i.e. walking and bathing/grooming, more playtime, etc.). As a lover of all creatures, I take the safety of both pets and wildlife seriously. As such, I will always supervise pets that are outside in yards and keep them on leashes outside fenced-off areas so they are not a danger to others or themselves. If transporting pets in my car, I will keep them safe and secure in a carrier/crate. As a college student who has shared living spaces with new people before, I understand the importance of respecting others' belongings and boundaries. During drop-in visits, I will be sure to respect your home and any rules you may have for your comfort (i.e. no shoes in the house, specific dishes/silverware for pets only, general cleanliness, etc.).

“Wendy is kind and trustworthy. She took the time to get to know my dog and made sure she was comfortable at the first visit. My dog is a unique breed so I really appreciated the patience. She was very professional!”

About: I just graduated from college and living in Needham for the summer! I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I currently have two labradors who are truly my best friends. My love for dogs is unmatched and if you ask any of my friends I freak out over any dog I see. I would love to be able to simply help give your furry friends some extra love whenever you need it weather it is letting them out during the day, taking them on walks or taking care of them when you are away! I do work a full time job however I am available before or after and most weekends if you need someone to quickly check in! I am very active and go on walks and runs every morning and would love to take a friend with me! I am avaliable to also keep them company during the day while I do work from my computer as well!

“Jessica was great! Booked a drop-in with short notice. She was responsive, flexible, and showed a care and understanding for my pooch's well-being as well as any concerns I had”

“Thanks again for stopping by and taking care of the pups last minute!”

“Samantha was great! We recently adopted a very active and playful kitten. She did a fantastic job keeping him occupied and safe while we were away. Samantha was very punctual and had great communication. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I have two Bernedoodles, Cosmo and Shep, who are the loves of my life and have taught me so much about caring for dogs. From daily walks and playtime to keeping them happy, healthy, and comfortable, I’ve gained years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different personalities and energy levels. I’ll treat your dog with the same care, attention, and affection that I give my own. I currently work as a host in the evenings, which gives me flexibility during the day for dog walks and drop-in visits. I’m generally available throughout the week and love spending my free time with animals whenever I can. While I am unavailable on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, I strive to be as available as possible on other days to provide reliable care, exercise, and attention for your pets. Whether your dog needs a walk, a quick check-in, or some extra companionship during the day, I’d be happy to help! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I understand that every dog has their own routine, personality, and needs, and I take the time to follow your instructions carefully to help them feel comfortable and secure. During walks, I prioritize leash safety, pay close attention to my surroundings, and make sure your dog gets the exercise and attention they need. For drop-in visits, I’ll ensure your pet is cared for according to their normal routine, including feeding, water, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also believe in keeping owners updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Claudia is an amazing pet sitter. She's incredibly considerate of our skittish kitty. Giving her plenty of time and space to get comfortable. Thanks to her, Smokie, our adult cat, is in wonderful hands when we're away. Can't recommend her enough!”

About: I grew up surrounded by animals, including dogs and cats, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. Over the past year, I have also walked dogs in my neighborhood and truly love it. I have experience with daily pet care such as walking, feeding, playtime, and providing companionship. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs, and I always prioritize their comfort, safety, and well-being. I treat every pet with patience and care, as if they were my own. I’m currently a student on vacation, so my hours are very flexible throughout the week and weekends, so I can accommodate depending all your pets needs. I provide a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment where your pet can feel comfortable and secure. I follow all care instructions carefully and supervise pets at all times, making sure their needs are met. I also send regular updates and photos so you can stay connected while away. With experience caring for cats, dogs, and small pets, I always prioritize their safety, happiness, and wellbeing.

“She’s the only person I trust to care for my cat. She always takes such good care of him, and he loves her! She goes above and beyond. I highly recommend Charlene.”

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I am comfortable with walking, feeding, playing, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs, routine, and personality to make sure they are comfortable and happy. I am reliable, patient, and truly enjoy spending time with animals, treating every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine as a student because I keep a consistent schedule and have dedicated time before and after classes for walks, visits, and feeding. I’m also usually more flexible on weekends, which allows me to spend extra time with pets. Since I enjoy being around animals and staying active, taking care of pets is something that easily fits into my day. When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always focus on keeping them comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding them on schedule, giving them fresh water, taking them on walks, and making sure they get plenty of playtime and attention. I also make sure they have a clean, safe, and calm environment where they can feel relaxed. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they need extra exercise, quiet time, or lots of affection, and I always keep owners updated so they know their pet is in good hands.

About: The Pet Whisperer: I have decades of experience both caring for AND owning pets; mainly cats and dogs. My first dog was already in the family when I was born; I don't know life without caring for a pet. Dog walks and cat play have always been a part of my lifestyle. Looking to carry my love of pets into caring for yours! I currently have flexibility in my schedule from 6:30 am - 10:30 pm seven days per week; ideally with advance notice especially for boarding and/or around holidays. If an opportunity arises where I am at my home with your pet, I have a fenced in backyard for outdoor play. Indoors I have several dog beds of varying sizes for your dog to feel comfortable and right at home and dog toys to enjoy (both of which get cleaned after every use dog visit)

About: Hi! I am Grace. I am a student at the University of Notre Dame looking to make some extra money in preparation for my time at school. I have a dog at home so I understand what the animals need and how much they mean to their owners. I am so excited to meet your lovely animals! 🤗 I love to spoil pets as if they are my own! I have experience caring for pets ranging from puppies to senior dogs to cats to horses. I am a full time student and love to pet sit during my time at home. Thus meaning I have a lot of availability any day to both walk and care for your sweet animals!!

“Niusha looked after our cat while we were away for the holiday and we were very happy to see the many photos and videos that she shared of our kitty - he was clearly very well loved and taken care of!”
