Cat Sitting in Batavia

“Virginia took such great care of our kitty while we were away. She went above and beyond, spending extra time with her and sending photos. I knew our cat was in good hands which gave us peace of mind. Virginia is very conscientious and thoughtful, and I highly recommend her.”

“He showed up on time, took photos, and made a young pup happy!”

About: Some people innately connect with animals. Maybe this cannot be taught or learned. Even those animals who "don't like anyone" like me. It's a gift. Perhaps they can tell I'm a gentle giant and it makes them feel safe and protected. Whether cat or dog or some other creatures, I will lavish affection and attention on them (if they're into that). Or simply let them call the shots until they're ready to warm up a bit more. As a large, fit dude, I can manage even the strongest dogs, but I'm nimble and delicate with the smaller ones and cats. It comes naturally, and your pets will sense it. Summertime affords more flexibility for me as a teacher. I do have another PT gig currently on Tuesdays & Thursdays in the afternoons. But I'm mostly available the other 5 days for now, and am willing to spend time with your pets before and after shifts on days I work. For many years, I've cared for dozens of friends' pets. Long before Rover existed, I was a resident car provider in my community. Everyone knows I am reliable, professional, responsive, and flexible. Clean, sober, non-smoker.

About: i am currently working at an all cat vet clinic where i have CSR and vet assistant experience. giving medications cleaning up after pets, feeding them as well as spending quality time with them. I used to work at a boarding place. I would walk, bathe, feed , give meds to and clean up after dogs and cats. I would play with them. Catch. I would also clip and grind their nails. I also worked as a groomer in PetSmart. I would bathe them and clip nails there. I enjoy working with animals and this is a great opportunity to do what I like doing while helping others if needed ! I hope to get to know you ! And hope to be of assistance soon. Can’t wait!!! I’m always open to any breed of dog. I have no preference. I love all animals. I’ve been around animals all my life and I enjoy every minute/ day of it. Thank you. i’m currently working part time so i am pretty flexible and am off weekends. I can go up to 3 times unless medications need me to go more times than that. i take care of them in your home so at their own comfort where they have their favorite toys, bowls and no new people or smells to keep it as stress free as possible.

“Maria is so caring of our pup! We felt very comfortable knowing that our dog was well taken care of and genuinely cared for. She’s very open with communication which was very appreciated. She’s a great choice when you’re looking for a sitter!”

About: Grew up in an environment surrounded by dogs and cats and have always loved caring for animals. I am reliable, attentive, and comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and providing plenty of affection to help pets feel at ease. Pet care fits well into my routine. I am completely free on Mondays. I work from home Wednesday and Friday, and am available after 430pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays, as well as on all day weekends. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide dependable care, including walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own and follow all instructions provided by the owner. I prioritize safety, maintain a clean environment, ensure pets have fresh water, meals, exercise, and attention, and provide updates so owners can feel confident their pets are well cared for while away.

About: Hi! I am a teacher and dog lover! We have a large mix breed dog who loves to play and lounge. I used to volunteer at the senior dog rescue in San Francisco, Muttville and I have worked with dogs of all ages. I have week nights and weekends available to care for your animal. I am flexible when it comes to the care your indivisible pet needs. I am open to watching dogs at my house. We have a large, safe yard and they are allowed on furniture with their own blanket. If your dog does not do well with other dogs (young dogs), or they would be more comfortable in your home, I can do house visits.

About: I love dogs (cats, too). Dogs want love, praise and attention and I know they want to be good.... they just need to be given the chance and the right cues to correct behavior. I have my own dogs and I round up strays and fosters to set them up with their forever homes. I am also a homeowner and I know what it feels like to invite a guest worker (pet sitter) into your home and have them not respect or take care of things (pet and home) the way they promised. I promise to look after your pet and your home and I can be your eyes and ears if something is up that you need to know about. I am a full time pet carer. I’m responsible, flexible and reliable. I can usually agree to same day assignments for walking, visiting or overnight care. When I’m with your dogs, I’m interacting with them, even if we’re just hanging out. Pets needs always come first! Some dogs don’t need walking… they might need a long visit with play. Sometimes they need belly rubs and snuggles. I also provide fresh water every visit so they’re never out.

“Lauren was great with Riley! She gave her lots of cuddles and good walks! Thank you!”

About: ​As a professional research associate preparing to begin my PhD, I bring an exceptional level of detail, structure, and reliability to pet care. I am a fellow dog owner with extensive experience that ranges from house sitting cats and dogs to managing high energy environments with up to four dogs at once. Because I understand firsthand the daily routines and unique personalities of animals, I treat your pets with the exact same patience and care I give my own. My organized schedule ensures your home is fully respected and your furry family members receive dedicated companionship while you are away. ​As a research associate and incoming PhD student, my weekends are completely free for pet care. I love balancing fun, active time with animals alongside quiet study hours during their downtime. I’ve managed everything from single cats to packs of four dogs. I’ll give your pets the structured, reliable companionship they need while keeping your home perfectly respected. ​When staying in your home, I treat your space and your pets with the utmost respect. I strictly abide by all house rules, seamlessly maintain your pet’s established routines, and am always happy to keep things tidy by doing quick chores like vacuuming up pet hair before you get back.

About: I have been surrounded by cats since I was a baby. I currently have two cats and would love to take care of yours like it was mine! I was trying to make a cat only profile but I could not find the only option. I'm currently trying to build a playpen out of my garage to board cats only. Each cat will have a big size enclosure and have individual brakes to play and roam around the playpen by himself. I plan to keep them separate from other possible guest cats to avoid any physical confrontation. You can bring your own food, toys and bed. Let me know if you have any questions or if you cat needs any special accommodations. I'll hope to hear from you!

About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs of all personalities and needs. I’ve had cats since I was 7 years old and grew up helping care for my neighbors’ cats, so I’m very comfortable with feline behavior, routines, and building trust with even the more independent or shy kitties. In college, I volunteered at an animal shelter, where I gained experience working with animals from a variety of backgrounds, and I adopted one of my own cats from there. I also grew up with dogs, including a Doberman and an English Bulldog, and today I have two Dobermans of my own. This has given me a strong understanding of both high-energy breeds and those that need a little extra patience and care. I’m also familiar with managing special needs, including caring for cats with megacolon, or who need special dietary needs. I’m attentive to health considerations and comfortable following specific care routines when needed. Whether your pet loves playtime, structure, or just a calm, reassuring presence, I’m committed to making them feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine since I work from home, which allows me to be flexible and attentive throughout the day. I’m typically available for walks, drop-ins, or check-ins in the evenings and on most weekends. I also enjoy staying active, whether it’s going on hikes or getting outside, so I love incorporating dogs into that time for walks, fresh air, and exercise. Overall, my schedule allows me to provide consistent, reliable care while making sure pets get plenty of attention and activity. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their environment safe, calm, and consistent with their normal routine. I’m very respectful of others’ spaces and naturally clean and organized; I treat every home as if it were my own. I make sure doors, gates, and any potential hazards are always secure, and I carefully follow all instructions to maintain your pet’s usual schedule, feeding routines, and comfort. Building trust is very important to me, both with pets and their owners. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and needs, and I’m attentive to their behavior to ensure they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident that your pet and home are in good hands.

“I went on a work trip to DC for a week and Brandon made having to leave Drax at home so much easier and took a lot of stress out of it. He provided daily updates and did even more than I even expected him to do. I am sure Drax is going to miss the week he spent with Brandon checking on him and keeping him company”

About: Only taking walking or housesitting clients in DIXON, DAVIS, and VACAVILLE! I’ve always had a pet since I was 4 and I love animals. I currently have 3 dogs that I care for and love taking them on walks to parks. When it comes to your pets I will make sure everything they need will be taken care of, and send plenty of pics of them if you’d like! I currently work part-time, and currently looking to expand my streams of income to save up for my own place one day. My schedule is flexible and I will make whatever work! You tell me the fur babies' routine and schedule and that’s what we’re doing as best as I can—regarding my schedule + distance. If they take vitamins/pills in the morning, or 3x a day, just let me know, I’ve done it all! I understand pets can be extra on edge when their parents are away, so keeping things how they’re used to is important to me to help them feel as comfortable as possible.

About: I have grown up with dogs of all sizes(and cats) and have been asked by many to take care of their pets while they are absent and so I know what type of attention I need to give to an animal when they need it. I also pay good attention to medications if one needs it. I love to play with dogs and cats, and make sure they get all of the exercise they need. I’m comfortable around all animals, and I’m willing to adapt and learn how to take the best care of them! I dedicate all of my time making sure that they feel loved, and energized while playing or just going on a walk. I have three dogs of my own, a German Shepard, and two Heelers, and they are very energetic, so I learned how to play with them according to their needs. Im home most of the day, so I am available for drop ins or walks, and can accept last minute bookings! With how busy life can be, I want to be able to take one less worry off your plate, and care for your animals in the way they need, so you can also take the care that you need. Currently, I have a part time job in the mornings, Monday through Wednesday, so I have plenty of time in my schedule for any fur baby! I have three dogs and two cats, so I’m not able to watch your furbabies at my house, however I would be more than happy to watch them at your house, or just take them for walks!

“Ashley was great with our older cat Cleo. I could tell from our meet and greet that Ashley would be good, as Cleo (who doesn’t typically like people) responded well to Ashley right away. Ashley showed up as scheduled every day to spend time with Cleo, sent pictures, and communicated quickly with us. I would definitely recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a responsible, caring pet sitter!”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, hamsters, turtles, and fish, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have experience caring for my own dogs and cats and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or a quiet companion, I’ll make sure they get the attention and care they need. I will treat your pets as if they were my own and do everything I can to make their time with me enjoyable and stress-free. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I am available, I am not working because I am pregnant and my husband want to enjoy this moment of my life so I have the availability to spend time with your pet I will sleep with your pet if it is used to, I have a big back hard and can walk all over the house, depends on your routine I will walk your pet as necessary

“Morgan was so wonderful! Needed a mid day drop-in for my senior dog. Reached out with only a day or so notice (my fault) and Morgan was able to help no problem! Always nice to have a sitter in the area you can count on and trust, Morgan is definitely on my list ᵕ̈”

“Valerie is amazing! I had never needed to hire anyone to look after my dog before, so I had a bit of anxiety about leaving him, but Valerie soon put me at ease. Norman looked forward to Valerie’s visits every day, and it was clear that she not only has plenty of experience but also is incredibly compassionate. My dog is older, and she was great about giving him the right amount of activity and attention based on his behavior each day. I’ll be recommending Valerie to everyone I know.”
