Cat Sitting Bozrah

“Kourtney did a great job with my 4 cats and made sure their needs were met during our vacation. She was very good with communication and sending photos. I would recommend her.”

About: I have volunteered with a dog rescue for the last years working with a variety of different dog breeds, ages, sizes, and behavioral issues. I also have 2 years of basic obedience dog training through that rescue, especially working through behavioral issues such as fear and reactivity. I also currently work as a Doggie Daycare Attendant. I currently work part-time as a doggy daycare attendant. I have 3 of my own dogs, as well as a foster dog. My mother in law lives with my family so there is almost always someone home, especially so for potty breaks. All of my dog remain crated while unattended. Potty breaks as as frequently as needed, especially with my senior dog. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do have long leads for outside and dogs are never left unsupervised outside.

“Shannon did a great job taking care of my cat while I was away. She kept him entertained and gave very attentive care to him. She was prompt and reliable the entire time. And my cat loved to have her around! Will definitely book her again!”

“Tina was absolutely amazing! I had to leave for a few days and she responded so quickly to the request, followed by a meet and greet, and then constant communication throughout the days I was away. She took loving care of my senior kitty (18 years old), which required giving daily medications and cleaning up messes since my elderly baby has trouble with incontinence. Extremely friendly and personable. I highly recommend her to anyone. She put my mind to ease as I was very worried about my girl while away.”

About: No rule will be bent, no abnormal behavior will go unreported, and no tummy will be left unrubbed! I've done it all! Boarding, overnights, drop in visits, walks, appointment escort, etc... I just love animals. I've never met an animal I didn't get along with and never feel better than when one returns that love. I know it can be challenging and, frankly, scary to trust someone else with your pets- they're family after all! That's why I consider the role of pet sitter as the most important part of my day. You want pictures? You got 'em! You need updates? Expect a detailed text! You want someone to reassure your babies to not worry and their mom(s)/dad(s) will be home soon? I will be as clear with them as if they were a human child! I get it, you worry they will feel scared when you aren't home. That's why I am here. Food, walks, and playtime are all well and good, but I believe it is just as important to make them feel as comfortable as I can with as much reassurance as I can give. I am a weekly volunteer at Kitty Harbor in Griswold so when it comes to cats, I am experienced in all sorts of mishaps- litter accidents, dirty butt, scratch boo boos, and more. I am also experienced in administering medication. Of course, if you're kitty has a way that works for them, then that's how we'll get it done! As for the pups, I am always excited to get a chance to go for a walk or even a full on hike! Exercise is always more fun when a four legged friend is involved. If you're training a young puppy, or even an old fellow, just let me know exactly when I should be disallowing and you can feel comfortable they won't be learning any bad behavior from me. One last note: boundaries are so important. Every animal is different and every animal has their own limits. If your kitty doesn't like to be pet, then no pets they shall have. If your dog doesn't like to be watched while they eat, then my eyes shall be shut. I hate being stressed, why would I put that on anyone else? I work a 9-5 in Norwich so I am available early mornings and evenings for visits. If you're in Norwich, I can be available mid day for a lunch time drop in as well. I have reliable transportation and a desire to start and/or end my day with furry friends. As for weekends, I am always booked afternoon into the evening on Sunday for my time with the kitties at the Kitty Harbor, but other than that I can have plenty of room on the weekends to add your babies in to my routine. Routine and boundaries. Whatever they are used to, that's what they'll get from me! I hate being stressed, why would I want to do anything to make an animal unnecessarily stressed?

About: I have been house sitting overnight since I was 14. I have experience working with dogs, cats, mice, and flying squirrels. Believe it or not, I have taken care of dogs who were indoor-trained only.I am also an experienced dog walker- not just with my own dogs but with friends' dogs that I've loved as my own. **serious inquiries only** please do not send me a booking request if you're going to ghost me after I respond or if you plan to book with another sitter. You'd be surprised by how often this happens. I abide by the safety precautions at the homes I stay at (fences, ring cameras, etc). When I stay with indoor cats, I take extra precautions when leaving the house to make sure the cats don't escape.

About: I absolutely love going for walks and runs with dogs! Please see updated photos for some of my previous pet clients. Recently took care of a few hairless cats as well as a big dog! I’ve taken care of pets in many settings, including messier households! (Not a neat freak so messes do not bother me!) I trained my Doberman on Couch to 5k, running through all the trails in RI. I’ve taught my cat how to shuffle cards, play piano, and spin in a circle on command, and my mom’s old cat would always practice Pilates with us at 6 in the morning. Recently I dropped in for a friend’s 2 cats, even the shy one eventually warmed up to me! They required medication in their food so she left detailed, neatly handwritten notes on the table, which helped a lot! Known for my positive and caring energy as a music therapist (who works alongside a pet therapist!) and music teacher, and with a mom with a college degree in animal science, I have a passion for animals in general. She is now dating a farmer and we now have a baby cow named clover who I help take care of occasionally on Sundays. Generally I am available in the middle of the day most days of the week for one-off visits. My boyfriend is a biologist and also has a small dog who I walk frequently in the mornings and at midnight (she’s a night owl like us!) Available to do drop-ins at your home within 45 mins of Montville - please message me at least one week before your trip to solidify the booking! Please be kind, respectful, and professional in your requests - I do not take last minute visits but would love to help you out with your furry friend. Not a veterinarian, just an animal lover with a lot of compassion!! One of my favorite activities is running, I can always walk or run with your pet, or if you prefer us to lounge, I have lots of great pet-friendly shows on our nice TV. I love driving so I’m happy to drive to you if it’s further away - as I am regularly back and forth between Westerly, RI and Uncasville, CT. Outside of teaching in a formal studio, I’ve worked in client’s homes for therapy-related meetings as well as for music lessons - and believe it or not often times there are pets who love to sing along to the music! I usually stay home in the morning so I can easily take care of your pet between 7 am and 2 pm. I used to have an office job but found it too sedentary and draining; I discovered I thrive in outdoor and home environments. I’m excited to enter this new chapter and care for animals! I have a partially fenced yard so I would generally take pets out on a leash but it is a non-busy road and very safe - the lawn is freshly mowed and we have a playground your dog can weave around! I also have a cute little neighborhood that we can circle around that is far from the highway and if your pet loved car rides, we can always go to the park and get ice cream! Occasionally our neighbor’s dog likes to come over unsolicited but he is always very gentle and friendly! My cats are also used to my mom’s boyfriend’s rambunctious dogs coming in and out from time to time and we have plenty of doors and rooms in the house and baby gates if we ever needed to keep pets separate! We also have a spare pet bed if needed that was gifted to us - we always want to make sure your pet is comfortable sleeping at night!

About: Hello! I’ve been caring for animals for many years and have experience with both cats and dogs. I currently have two cats, and I also had a wonderful dog named Morgan, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m patient, reliable, and happy to adapt to whatever makes you and your pet feel most comfortable. If you’d like me to meet your pet before the booking, I’m more than happy to do so. If your pet prefers a calm environment, extra playtime, a specific routine, or simply someone to keep them company, I’ll gladly follow your instructions. I understand how important it is to maintain their normal routine while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, including weekends. Feel free to reach out, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your preferred schedule. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities! During every visit, I’ll carefully follow your care instructions, including feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning the litter box (for cats) or picking up after walks (for dogs), playtime, administering medications (if needed and with clear instructions), and maintaining any special routines. I’ll always respect your home, keep doors and windows secure, and make sure your pet is safe and comfortable before I leave. I’m also happy to schedule a meet-and-greet beforehand so your pet can get to know me and we can go over their routine in detail. I’ll send regular photo and message updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Kirsten was fantastic, she did a pre-visit check beforehand and visited our cat early each morning. She sent updates and photos, and let our cat outside to play, just like she’s used to. We would recommend Kirsten and would definitely book her again.”

About: I have always loved all types of animals! I have taken a few classes at UConn for canine and feline behavior and one animal training class. I own a cat currently, and I own and have alot of experience caring for tons of exotic animals from reptiles to amphibians and small mammals. I am very comfortable around all types of animals and I am excited to meet and care for your pets! I have volunteered back at home in NYC for SI Hope to care for kittens and older cats. I have done multiple dog volunteer days at the ACC so I am experienced with handling dogs and puppies alike. I’m also reliable, responsible, and will always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I am a seasonal worker so during the year I am a full time student. I have one to two classes a day as it's my senior year. I will have plenty of time to care for your pet and give them company! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority! When caring for pets in their own home, I will follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I understand that every pet is different, so I’ll take the time to make sure they feel comfortable and safe with me. I’m responsible, attentive, and respectful of both your pet and your home, and I’ll make sure you can feel confident that your pet is in great hands while you’re away!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and other animals since I was a little kid, and for others for about 5 years now. Whether it is training or just hanging out, your pets needs are always met. I work from home with a pretty flexible work-life balance, which means I am able to meet any time-specific needs! This makes your pets my number 1 concern. Your pets safety and well being is my utmost concern, and with the years of experience under my belt, you can be rest assured that your pets are safe.

About: I have been caring for neighbor’s, friend’s and family’s pets when needed since I was a teenager 8 years ago. It is one of my favorite ways to give back to the people and pets in my life! I am currently working part time, leaving plenty of time to pet sit both cats, dogs, and bunnies. I also have experience walking friends and family’s dogs and would love to do that for others as well. I regularly feed, provide water, and take my family friend’s pets on walks. I also spend time with their dogs in their back yard playing with them!

About: Ive been pet sitting for a while! Im very friendly and patient with animals! Ive taken care of cats, and small dogs! Ive taken dogs on walks and dedicated playtime to both cats and dogs! Many people are very satisfied with my care! Im great with following schedules and making pets foods exactly how they prefer it! My routine is largely based off my college schedule! I will take jobs such as drop bys and walks during the week after my classes, which currently end around 2 at the latest. Most of my weekends are free, so I am able to stay nights to keep your pet feeling safe and happy! I care for your pet through patience and friendliness! I tend to talk to animals like most people do, to try and make pets feel safer! After all its what i do with my own pets! I usually like to get to know pets to understand them better so I can help them feel safer while their buddies are away! I like to create a comfortable environment for all pets I help take care of

About: I have loved and cared for all kinds of animals since I was young. Having every animal from cats to dogs, birds and guinea pigs, hamsters, snakes, lizards, turtles, and birds! I have experience training dogs as well as training service dogs. I can care for animals from birth to their senior years. I can safely bathe animals, feed, administer medication, and give souch love to them! I have a very flexible routine that allows me to accommodate the needs of many pet parents!

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my two cats received! Serenity was absolutely amazing, she went above and beyond to make sure they were not only well fed and safe, but also loved and comforted while I was away. She provided regular updates, photos, and was incredibly responsive and kind. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. I would 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!”

“Veronica did a great job taking care of our cat Cheese! We came back to a healthy happy kitty and knowing we had someone we could trust gave us great peace of mind while we were away.”

About: Hi all! I’ve been pet-sitting since very young (age 10), having experience with various dog breeds and sizes as well as cats. Feel free to reach out so we can connect! I currently work per diem, so I have plenty of free time to care for little ones. I tend to have open availability, even for last minute requests! I am very open and able to follow any requests concerning your little ones. I understand that every pet is different when it comes to their needs, so I am very accommodating and willing to learn how to best care for your baby!

“Loved getting the pictures and Archie had a great time! Thank you!”

About: I've grown up with cats and dogs my whole life. As a teenager I fostered dogs of all ages and sizes with my mother, from litters of puppies to energetic rascals to oldies slowing down. Since I was a baby my house always had at least one cat, sometimes up to 5 at a time, and our house was where the neighborhood knew to bring any cats that were found needing help. I have had cats with special needs, and three big black shelter lab mixes. As an adult I have developed a hobby interest in dog training, and I know how much structure, clear communication, and strong leadership can help put a dog at ease and keep them safe. I love all animals and volunteered for 4 years in wildlife rehabilitation. I'm moving back to Rhode Island and taking on small jobs as I establish my schedule and routine, so I have plenty of time and flexibility for immediate requests! I have my own car, so I can easily come to your home for home stay, drop-ins, and walks! My family dogs were crate trained, so I understand routines of crating, feeding, taking out, etc. I am also comfortable with different types of leads, such as harnesses, gentle leads, prong collars, and soft and hard muzzles. I have also taken care of dogs who have specialty needs, such as indoor litter boxes, doggy diapers, and specialty diets. I have administered oral medication, in both pill and liquid form, to both cats and dogs.

“Jeffrey took great care of my three dogs and kept me apprised of their feeding and activities throughout the weekend. I would highly recommend him.”
