Cat Sitting in Batesville

“This is our 3rd time having Kelly sit for our pups and she is always wonderful. She takes great care of my pups and my house and I never have any worries while I am away.”

“I met Melissa in January when my girl had CCL surgery. She is super sweet, thoughtful and great with my high maintenance pups. She is careful to seek all the information and ask questions so she can understand your pets needs. Super fabulous”

Kimberly H.

“Would definitely use Madison again, very communicative and sent pics of my babies while we were away! One of our cats is diabetic and needs insulin twice daily and she took care of that with no problems. Positive experience all around!”

About: As a pet sitter, my dedication to providing exceptional care sets me apart. I have extensive experience in: Puppy Training: I can handle basic obedience training, housebreaking, and socialization to ensure your puppy grows into a well-behaved adult. Senior Pet Care: I am well-versed in the special needs of senior pets, including administering medication, monitoring health conditions, and providing gentle, attentive care. Behavioral Management: I can manage pets with anxiety or behavioral issues, creating a calm and safe environment for them. Health and Wellness: I am knowledgeable about pet nutrition, exercise requirements, and can identify early signs of health issues. Customized Care Plans: I tailor my care approach to each pet's unique needs, ensuring they receive the attention and love they deserve. My commitment to understanding and meeting each pet’s individual needs ensures they are happy, healthy, and well-cared for in your absence. Pet care is a significant part of my daily and weekly routine. I ensure a structured schedule that prioritizes the well-being of the pets in my care. My typical routine includes: Morning Routine: Early morning walks or playtime to ensure pets start their day with exercise and stimulation. Feeding breakfast and fresh water, along with administering any morning medications. Quick grooming session to check for any issues and ensure they look and feel their best. Midday Check-ins: Midday walks or outdoor playtime to break up the day and provide additional exercise. Midday meals or snacks if required, and a fresh water check. Brief health check to ensure pets are comfortable and healthy. Afternoon Routine: Another round of exercise or play, focusing on activities that engage their mind and body. Feeding dinner and fresh water, along with administering any evening medications. Spend quality time with the pets, offering affection and companionship.

Weekly Tasks: More extensive grooming sessions, including baths and nail trims. Thorough cleaning of pet areas, including bedding, toys, and feeding areas. Monitor and replenish supplies like food, medications, and grooming products. By integrating pet care into my routine, I ensure each pet receives consistent, attentive, and loving care throughout the day and week. In-Home Pet Care: Safety Measures: Conduct a thorough home inspection to identify and eliminate any hazards. Secure all doors, windows, and fences to prevent escapes. Keep toxic substances out of reach, including cleaning supplies and certain plants. Use pet-safe cleaning products to maintain a healthy environment. Trust Building: Arrange a meet-and-greet to establish a rapport with the pet and understand their needs. Communicate regularly with pet owners, providing updates and photos. Respect the owner’s home by following specific instructions and maintaining cleanliness. Environment: Create a comfortable and safe space for the pet with their bed, toys, and favorite items. Ensure access to fresh water and food, following dietary guidelines provided by the owner. Provide ample exercise and mental stimulation tailored to the pet's age, breed, and energy level. Client’s Home Pet Care: Safety Measures: Conduct an initial assessment of the home environment for potential hazards. Follow security protocols to ensure the home is safely locked and secure during visits. Administer medications and handle health concerns with utmost care.

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. Growing up I had three dogs, one being a labrador, a golden retriever and a plot hound for 16 years. My three dogs I had since they were puppies till they were seniors one was 21 years old. One was 11 and one was 16 when they passed. Now I have two pit terriers that I have had for three years now. I grew up, always taking care of them. And taking care of my friends and neighbors dogs all throughout the years if they went out of town on a vacation or if they were just gone for the weekend I would visit and take care of them for the time being. I have taken care of a bunch of cats as well, because my friends and family have many. I have a lot of experience with taking dogs on walks especially big dogs. My three dogs were almost all 70 to 80 pounds and I would take all three of them on walks at the same time. I really enjoy being around animals and being able to take care of them. As of right now I am not working so my schedule is very flexible and I can accommodate almost every day of the week. Time or day that you need depending on your schedule, just let me know and we can definitely work something out. Right now I do live at an apartment which does not allow animals. So the space is not animal friendly at the moment. But I am working on finding a more friendly space.

About: My dog was my best friend, and I cared for her since I was 9 years old. She passed in early 2024. I'm 24 now, and still just as enthusiastic about caring for dogs. Though it's far too soon for me to get another dog of my own, being around other people's pets helps to fill the gap, so I've since taken up work as a kennel technician. I'll take care of your furry friends as if they're my own! I will be available to walk your dog during the weekdays! I currently work part-time, so my schedule is very flexible! I know first-hand how time consuming a pet can be, so I'd love to take advantage of my current free time and help out as much as I can. I am willing to take your dog on a 30-60 minute walk depending on need, cleaning up after them along the way. I am also willing to work on leash training if necessary. You can trust that you will have a very happy dog afterward!

About: Hi there! My name is Alexia Dodd, and I go beyond just feeding and walking—I provide personalized, compassionate care tailored to each dog’s needs. Whether it's a high-energy puppy or a sweet senior needing extra attention, I treat every dog like my own. You’ll receive daily updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your dog is in loving, capable hands. I maintain your dog’s routine as closely as possible to reduce stress while you're away. I am currently home for the summer from college, but pet care is a central part of my day, not just something I squeeze in. I plan my schedule around the needs of the pets in my care to make sure they get the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. In Your Home: Familiar, Low-Stress Comfort I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and bedtime. I keep their environment tidy and stress-free, including cleaning up after meals and litter or potty areas. I provide companionship, enrichment, and calm attention, especially for pets who may be anxious without their humans. I keep you updated with photos and notes so you always know how your pet is doing.
