Cat Sitting in Blairsville

“Kelly is amazing!! When we found her, we were looking for a pet sitter on short notice. She was so understanding and accommodating. She took her time in allowing our dog to warm up to her at their meet and greet, and also on the drop-in visits. She provides fast communication and the best photo updates!! Not only does she do the essential duties of pet sitting, she takes time to play and cuddle with them so they don’t feel lonely while their family is away. “Aunt Kelly” is highly recommended and will definitely be used again!!!”

“Karen was very accommodating with a last minute booking. She was very good with my pup, and would definitely look at booking with her in the future!”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and cats while I grew up with my parents. I have experience with disabled dogs that need special care, and experience with all size breeds. I would love to walk or stop in to help your pup if needed! I can do drop in visits 2x daily, and I am available for walks daily. Always willing to make something work if there are scheduling difficulties! I am very detail oriented and caring for all animals. I am more than willing to do whatever is needed to ensure a happy, healthy pet.

About: I truly enjoy getting to know each individual dog's personality and tailoring my response to match. My family always had a dog growing up. Though I am not a "dog trainer" my dogs have always been taught basic commands and learned to reliably respond, for their safety. Lots of treats. I am retired, so I (and my husband) are normally home except for brief errands. My dog and I take about a mile walk twice a day through the woods. Your dog would get frequent leash walks, and whatever playtime they wanted. And of course lots of hugs. :) We have a large back yard bordering on a wooded area for frequently leash walking your dog. Additionally we have a small (20' x 14') fenced area for some off leash play time. Our dog enjoys other dogs and our cat thinks he is a dog. Our pets are allowed on furniture, but of course we would reinforce your rules if they differ. We will play games in the house and lots of attention will be given.

About: I have been the neighborhood dog walker since I was a kid and have cared for both dogs and cats often. I have worked with a senior dog often and am used to the meticulous routines of medication and assisting their needs. I typically work 5 hour shifts in the afternoons or late evenings with flexibility in my schedule to accommodate specific needs if necessary. Days and time vary each week. I am good with instructions and always seek to leave things better than I found it. I want whatever dog I watch to feel as comfortable and safe as it can when I care for it.

About: I’ve been around pets all my life. From the moment I was born we had cats and my family members had dogs. My cousin trains dogs and has been for 3 years, she gets them as little puppies and I am always around them. I walk dogs frequently and am around them frequently! I help a lot of people dog sit! I would like to get some extra cash and exercise while I am at school! I have an easy schedule this semester and would love to walk a dog or care for a pet. I’ve dog sitted many times before. Everytime I make sure I take them on walks, make sure they pee/poop, and feed them properly, but you can’t forget to love on them!! At home I love on my pets a lot, feed them, and change their litter box.

“I can be sure that my kitties are in good care thanks to Eilee. I have and will continue to book her for drop ins when I’m out of town. She is a trustworthy individual and is considerate of your home and pets needs. Overall a like-able person who is also accommodating and very responsive to messages !”

About: Hello! My name is Joudi. I've been petsitting for more than 10 years and have 4 years of experience working at a veterinary clinic and emergency hospital in Philadelphia. There, I restrained dogs and cats for exams, performed blood draws, gave vaccines, and cared for pets boarding with us. I've also volunteered at an animal hospital/shelter in Vietnam where I cared for anxious and/or aggressive dogs. My favorite part of the experience was spending time with these types of dogs in particular to help them open up and trust humans, making them more likely to get adopted. Since moving from Philly, I no longer work at an animal hospital but deeply miss being around pets daily. I've absolutely loved animals my entire life and I can guarantee I will treat your pet like my own and provide the best care possible! I'm currently working part-time in Ligonier with a flexible schedule and I'll do my very best to become available for your pet! I mainly focus on overnight stays at the pet’s home since I now have another kitty who’s not the biggest fan of dogs. I have experience caring for anxious, aggressive, and medicated cats and dogs. I will typically ask about your pets behavior around new people, other animals, and what I can do to make them comfortable around me.

About: Being around dogs has been the foundation of my life since the age of 3. From caring for my own pets, helping our neighbor who bred collies, and caring for dogs while also caring for my patients at work as a home health occupational therapist, I feel like every pet is part of my family. My heart is full around any four legged friend and I strive to care for them, show them the deepest love, and teach them as I do my own children. It’s in my blood! I currently work as a home health OT with a flexible schedule during the day. I also have windows of time during the evenings and weekends to care for any pet. Teaching my sons responsibility and skills required to care well for animals are just an added bonus! I own my home with a large yard in the rear of the home. I’m also able to provide in-home boarding as I do not currently have a pet in the home. I also am able to offer drop-in services to address any home needs (mail, plant care, shoveling or vacation mowing), dog-walking, and light housework. Additional services like dog-walking upon request- let’s make your time away painless without concern at home.

About: I’ve had pups in my house for my entire life 21 + years, i am also a ferret lover and a cat lover. friends and family have relied on me to watch their dogs before while they’ve been on vacation. I’d love to meet your pets! I’m currently an online college student just trying to make enough money to pay the bills! I also have worked in the restaurant industry since I was 15 but have always had a love for animals. I’m currently going to school for environmental science and hopefully one day will get my masters in geoarcheology! I have loads of free time around my serving schedule! Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions! I love to just hangout with your dog and get to know them! Meet and greets are always fun! I love walking dogs it’s great exercise for me as well as them of course!

“Julia always helps me last minute and is great with my boys! Definitely recommend :)”

About: I used to work at an animal rescue so I’ve dealt with all kinds of dogs! What I learned from working there is that every animal is special and deserves all the love in the world. I work part-time at an elementary school. I typically work Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so my schedule any other day is wide open. I just need the client to put in the request a couple days in advance! I am a college student so I live in an apartment with three other girls. The apartment is pet friendly and we have dogs over all the time! There is no fenced in yard, but there is a beautiful, spacious yard behind the complex. As for a client’s home, I will care for the pet per the clients request!

About: I've been been a kennel attendant for 6 months where I took care of dogs of all breeds. I've also learned how to administer medication to pets for different diseases I am currently unemployed so I will have plenty of time to make sure your pets are loved and cared for! I have 3 pets myself so I have plenty of experience! I've been working in the animal field for a little over a year, but have had my own pets since I was little. You can trust me with your animals because I love them as much as you do and don't want to see anything bad happen to them.

“Hope is truly the best sitter we have ever had! She's so sweet and kind, our animals love her especially our pup who is older and doesn't always do well with new people in the house!”

About: Ever since I was a little girl I used to help out my dad taking care of my childhood puppy. I went through obedience training with him, and I still remember a few techniques we were taught as well. Whether it was walking, playing, bathing, etc. I was there to help. When I was 16, I brought home a barn kitten (much to my father’s dismay), and she has been with me ever since. I named her Lua, and she is now spoiled silly. I am here to do anything to your pet’s heart’s desire, treating them as I would my own. I am currently working a part-time serving job and taking classes online, so I can be flexible as needed for your furry friend or friends! I make sure my cat gets food and water morning and night. Water is always out for my cat and I clean litter daily, but obviously I can accommodate to any schedule for your pet.

About: I have a senior dog of my own who requires a lot of TLC! With him being 16 I am well versed in administering medicine to animals, giving them all the attention they need, and getting in some active time! I have also house sat and taken care of numerous dogs for a multiple day period! I have been dog sitting as a hobby since I was in high school! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, needs, and energy levels! I joined rover because I have an immense love for fur babies and getting to interact with all of them and take care of them fills me with joy! I am currently in college attending IUP. I graduate in December. During my semesters, my classes are all online so I am very available when it comes to my schedule! I also work part-time but the schedule is flexible as well so I can accommodate for any needs you have! With my work and school schedule being very flexible I am able to stop in for frequent potty breaks and check-ins! This allows me to also be very open for walks and stays! With offering services to watch your animal in your home, this allows for the dog to be more comfortable because they’re in their day-to-day environment! I will take the upmost care with respecting your home and not disrupting it!

“Leanne is great. She is awesome with my dog Louie and is great at keeping me updated. Knowing that my dog is in good hands really puts my mind at ease while I'm working. She is quick to respond and is very professional.”

About: I have had dogs and cats ever since I was 4. However, at age 12 I got my first dog just for me. I took it very serious and have loved taking care of dogs and cats ever since. I have raised a few dogs and cats of my own since they were young, some since actual birth. I have also taken care of a family dog whom was blind and deaf due to being very old. I currently can’t welcome pets into my own home, but I love caring for dogs so I wanted to still find a way to care for them! On days like now when it’s cold and everyone is busy, I have no issue walking your dog and ensuring they still get the outside experience without you worrying about their safety. I am big on giving regular updates and treating every pet as if they are my own. I’m a part time college student! Pretty much free with all online classes. I occasionally go to the gym but besides that, I’m always home. Think of it like if I’m babysitting someone’s child. It pretty much is for many dog owners, I would know as my dog Nya was very much my daughter lol. But it’s very important that I ask all the necessary questions so I can care for your pet the same way you would. If you give them treated only during certain behavior than I will too. If you only walk them in certain areas then I will too. It’s important to not only make every pet feel safe and comfortable, but to create an experience that doesn’t feel to far from home. That way not only does the pet feel happy, but once they are back to their owner it feels like they never left.

About: I have tons of experience with both cats and dogs. I have two pets of my own that i trained and take care of, a golden retriever and a cat! I am home for the summer hoping to save for college. I can promise I will be a great person to rely on to take care of your pets! I work an evening shift at my part time job throughout the week, but it is very flexible. I am open throughout the week and can work per care into my schedule very easily. I have a very friendly dog in my home and a cat that is inside and outside. When it comes to caring for your pet in my home, I will treat them as my own! My dog gets almost daily walks and is on a very consistent feeding schedule, as yours will be as well.
