Pet Sitting Bissell

“Thank you for everything. Orion is happy his family home now but you helped him greatly when we couldn't be there, including brushing him and talking to him.”

About: See my $20 Off QR Code in my photos! I love being around animals and have been around them my whole life. I grew up in generations of animal & nature-lovers. It’s a gift to be able to connect with animals. I love to return the positive energy an animal gives. I feel like every animal deserves kindness. I feel like I have a gift to be able read, understand, calm and relax and add happiness to an animal’s day. They are therapy for me as much as I feel I am for them. I’m happiest and genuinely feel most at-ease with animals. It’s important for me they feel comfortable with and around me. I know that much like human children, routine is very important to pets. If you need me to check in on them, feed /water them, potty breaks/short walks/close-by parks/play toss-the-ball, hug/cuddle/companion-time or stay at your home I am available to help. I develop unique connections to each animal I’m around and grateful to be around each one. Whatever a pet-owner needs me to do to help make their pet’s day better, I’m up for the challenge. Animals make my day, daily! Whether it be my friend’s dogs & cats or the Brahma bull that is up the road, I try to see an animal each day. I do have experience with animals that have high-anxiety, special needs and abusive backgrounds. I currently have a few tears in my meniscus which is preventing me to do rigorous walks. I will be scheduling surgery soon but that does not prevent me from tossing a ball around for a dog. I look forward to meeting and caring for your pet(s)! I am looking to assist with in-home day/night(s) stays, drop-in visits and walks. I’m available anytime and look forward to meeting you & your pet(s)! Although I do have a wonderful, small fenced-in yard, I live in an 800 sq ft home therefore, I think it's best to go where the pet is most-comfortable (their own home).

“Due to no fault of his own, we learned through this experience that apparently my kitties would rather bond with females. Yet, Amir pulled through, going far and beyond to find that bond. He, on his own, bought toys and treats, trying to coax them out of their shells. He searched our house through and through trying to find our one kitty, who insisted on hiding the entire time he was in our home. If, and when, you are in a situation where you have to leave your animals in the hands of another - for us, this meant traveling of state and really needing someone we could trust to be our best replacements - Amir is your guy! If, and when, we are in need again, we will be calling him”

About: Animals have always been a major component of my life. They tend to be drawn to me and trust in my patient compassionate nature. I enjoy training puppies basic manners and have even taught my cat a few tricks. I love being outdoors and engaging with those around me. Dogs appreciate my high energy and positive reinforcement. My schedule is pretty limited at this time. Every day but Tuesday I am either working or attending classes 11am-730pm. Depending on distance of travel it is possible to provide walks beforehand, after, or on a Tuesday. Let's connect and see how I can best assist caring for your fur baby (: I am available for drop-ins, walks, and overnight stays. Our activities are structured around a schedule that they'd typically experience to keep stress at bay. Lots of walks, treats, snuggles and play time! Respecting pet parents requests is my top priority. Let me know your needs and we will find something that works (:

“Alysia had both pet and house-sat many times for me in the past and always does a great job. She does a great job communicating and sending photos.”

About: I have experience with small dogs, big dogs, crazy cats and shy cats. I know each animal has a different way of life. I take into consideration all of their favors and sensitivities. I want each animal to feel loved and as comfortable as possible while they are away from their parents. I mostly have open availability. I usually only work at night for about five hours for about only three days a week. I have a pretty flexible schedule and if you contact me, we can work something out! I live in an apartment. I have a small backyard with no fence. I have a park nearby where I can walk dogs. I am also willing to come to the animals home and care for them there as well.

“So greatful for Melissa's help taking care of my cat Luna. At the time of my trip, Luna was recovering from a wound that needed special care. Melissa was not only able to manage her care and monitor progress, but also somehow managed to get my extremely shy cat to warm up to her, despite all the meds and special care routine. When I got back Luna was in tip-top shape and a lot less mad at me for leaving than she usually is. Melissa will definitely be my first call next time I need to travel.”

“Hannah did an excellent job taking care of our kitties while my husband and I were out of town for a long weekend. She was very timely in her responses to my messages and she provided updates and photos throughout our trip. She came over to meet us and the kitties before hand and was very polite and professional. I would definitely use Hannah's pet sitting services again in the future.”

About: I have a great love for animals, but especially, dogs. I've been dogsitting/dogwalking for around fifteen years, starting with sitting for my friends pets. I'm a very loving caregiver, so when their dogs would see me again, they'd spin around in circles, full of joy, and follow me around wherever I went. They started recommending me to their friends, who'd recommend me to their friends and so on, until I was sitting for all kinds of dogs. I decided I wanted to learn everything about dog care and to take it seriously as a profession. I took off to Peru and volunteered at a dog shelter. There I cared for 50 lonely street dogs. That's also where I learned about how to be an intuitive dog leader in groups of up to fifteen dogs. The feeling of fifteen strays running up to you every morning for some pets and affection is one I'll never forget. Now I spend my days sitting for dogs like yours. I also work in a doggie daycare. I spend a lot of my time off volunteering at the Humane Society. At this point, I'm confident and knowledgeable in dog behavior, alone and in groups. I can tell when a dog is anxious, or lonely, etc. I can read a dogs emotions, when it signals through its mouth ears, tail or body tenseness. I've learned a lot and I'm dedicated to learning more. I want to meet all the dogs! I'd love to meet yours! I'm sure we'd get along! I have a part time job in a doggie daycare, just because I love dog care and want to learn everything about it. Otherwise, I'm doing a lot of dogsitting. I like to dedicate a lot of my day to my furry clients, walking them and giving them bellyrubs. Housesitting: When I'm housesitting, I spend as much time as possible in your home with your dog. I love to take them to parks and to explore your neighborhood. Boarding: I have a big house to for them to run around in with fluffy, comfy couches and a cupboard full of treats. I also have a grassy back yard where we can chase balls and play tug-a-war. Lents Park is around the corner from me so take walks there several times a day.

“Caitlin provided excellent service to my 2 cats and my home was clean when I returned. She is highly communicative and even let me know about some cat shenanigans that looked suspicious. It’s wonderful to have such a trustworthy and detail oriented sitter. I highly recommend Caitlin for your sitting needs!”

“Rachael was awesome with keeping me updated when she dropped in to visit my cats! Even though my cats were super shy she took the time to try to play with them and get them to socialize (even though they were not into it at all). She really cares about animals and is super sweet! Will definitely book again”
