Cat Sitting in Bethel Island

About: There has never been a moment in my life I have lived without a loving animal by my side! Watching my babies through every stage of life has taught me the patience and skills to properly care for your babies. Currently, I am home from the summer from college giving me plenty of time to care for cats or dogs any day of the week! Every animal is different, which is why even with mine they have unique needs. My younger dog I enjoys long runs and walks while my older prefers shorter walks and playing fetch with them. When both feel like having a lazy day, i’m more than happy to oblige as we enjoy slow days on the couch crocheting. Hopefully my flexibility and experience can fit whatever your fur babies needs may be.

“Melissa looked after my cat while I was away, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was reliable and attentive. Communication was excellent. I received regular updates, which gave me peace of mind knowing my cats were safe and comfortable. She followed instructions carefully, gave medication and prescribed diet on schedule to one of them who is sick. She was brave enough to learn how to do a fluids IV. I highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a sitter who is not only reliable but also compassionate and capable of handling special needs.”

About: I've had pets my whole life, and love the feeling of "home" that they provide. Dogs, cats, birds, and turtles were household members while my kids were growing up. We've added a horse, goats, and chickens to our backyard, but dogs hold a special place in my heart! I'm comfortable giving injections, after-surgery care, older pet care, and all sizes of dogs. No dogs with separation anxiety, please. As a recently retired teacher, I have lots of time to dedicate to your pet! We walk daily, have supervised play time in the fenced yard, and spend time together in the house. My dogs are fed twice a day, and of course there's a lunch cookie midday! I have one small dog who is well-socialized with dogs of all sizes. Our house has stairs, so please let me know if your dog has mobility issues. I have chickens, a horse, and goats in my back yard, so the dogs like to join me for our twice-daily barn checks (from outside the fence, of course!)

About: Animals are my pride and joy! I've cared for many different pets for about 15 years now. I grew up with cats, dogs, and many other species. Previously I've had a pitbull, and currently I have four cats! I also have fostered 12 kittens up to this point. I have already sat for dogs, cats, and bunnies. You can be confident that your pet is in the best hands and will receive top care, as caring for animals is my passion and pleasure:) Pet sitting and taking care of animals is my priority! Right now I only work part time but if anyone needs me to help out I’ll be there! I have four cats currently and I’ve had dogs.I’ve taken care of many other species and breeds for others as well so I am well versed in animal care. Whatever you need me to do as far as routine care I will do as well as give them all my love and attention. I can stay as many nights and days as you need!

“We needed a fill in drop in sitter for our beast and 23 chose Joanne. One of the best decisions we could have made. She's very attentive, showed our dog lots of love, provided us with photographs and updates, very timely, and most importantly Joanne has proven herself trustworthy. We were very pleased with Joanne and most definitely use her services as well! 5 ?”

About: I used to have an auggie, which I sadly had to give away when we moved. He was very hyper and loved to play. I walked around the neighborhood with him, took him to the dog park - or played with him at home in order to tire him out. I am a college student currently taking online classes, I have plenty of time before or after class to take care of your furry companion(s) I like to make sure my own pets have a clean and comfortable environment, refilling and cleaning their food and water dishes as well as any litter. I also love to play with them and give em treats. I'll make sure to give your fur babies the same treatment!

“Vanessa was great. She was able to help us out on a last minute booking to drop in and check on our 7 month old puppy. She was even willing to stop by a few hours before we left to give us a chance to meet her and introduce her to our pup. She was on time, sent pictures, and told us all about their time together.”

About: Animals have always been my greatest passion and purpose. I’ve spent my entire life caring for, rehabilitating, working with rescues and T&R programs, loving animals of all kinds — from energetic puppies and curious kittens to seniors and special-needs rescues who require patience, understanding, and expert care. I have extensive experience in animal rehabilitation, including administering medication, performing life-saving procedures, supporting post-surgery recovery, and managing both physical and behavioral issues. Over the years, I’ve cared for countless animals with conditions such as arthritis, allergies, anxiety, collapsing tracheas, and other age-related or chronic illnesses. My background has equipped me with strong knowledge in pet illness prevention, senior care, physical therapy, and behavioral management. I currently care for multiple rescue animals and understand that every pet has their own story, needs, and comfort level. I approach each one with compassion, respect, and a calm, confident energy that helps them feel secure and loved. I’m also experienced with administering oral and topical medications, wound care, specialized diets, and gentle rehabilitation exercises to help pets heal and thrive.
