Cat Sitting Bucktown

About: Hi! I’m Meaghan, a 24 year old college student, and I’ve been working in veterinary medicine since 2022 as both a Veterinary Assistant and CSR. Through my work in vetmed, I’ve gained lots of hands-on experience caring for animals and understanding their individual needs, personalities, and routines. I have also helped my aunt with her dog-walking and drop-in pet care business, which has given me even more experience caring for dogs in their own homes and keeping them happy, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I absolutely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own! I’m dependable, attentive, and always happy to give plenty of love, playtime, walks, and belly rubs. 🐾 I'm currently a full-time student and looking to fit in pet care inbetween commitments as I miss my day-to-day in vetmed. I provide dog walking and drop-in visits in your pet’s own home and neighborhood. I’ll always follow your instructions and your pet’s routine, keep doors and gates securely closed, and make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for throughout every visit.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who recently moved to the area after spending the last 24 years in Washington state. With all the kids off to college, I’m now enjoying being a stay-at-home dog and cat mom and would love to use my extra time to help other pet parents feel confident that their animals are happy, loved, and cared for while they’re away. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, and I grew up on a farm surrounded by a variety of animals. Caring for animals has always been something that comes naturally to me. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, kindness, and attention I would want for my own. After years of working in a busy career, I especially appreciate having the time to slow down and enjoy the companionship of animals. I’d love to help dogs get some exercise, attention, and affection during the day so they aren’t stuck at home alone for hours while their families are at work. In the past we used this service to make sure our pets were well cared for while we were at work. It was so valuable for not only to our animals, but to us Whether your dog needs a midday walk, some playtime and companionship, or you need someone dependable to check in on your pets, I’m happy to help. My background in healthcare has also taught me to be responsible, attentive to details, and comfortable handling unexpected situations. Most importantly, I want your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I’d be happy to meet you and your pets beforehand so we can make sure we’re a great fit! Your pets may be your babies, but I’ll treat them like they’re mine. 🐾❤️ I am currently staying home and staying active with my standard poodle, Eevee and my cat, Moo. I have worked in surgery for close to 30 years and now that I’m home full time, I want to fill my time with things I love and make me happy. I have a fully fenced backyard with a swimming pool. I do have one standard poodle, who is super friendly and ball obsessed. I do have one cat who is a rescue from a hoarding situation and loves to play with dogs.We have a large home with all kids off to college. Animals sleep with us.

About: From a very young age until now, I’ve cared for and owned dogs. I’m experienced in training them to do little tricks as well! I’ll look after your dogs, big or small, young or old! My current weekday availability is in the morning until noon. For weekends, I am usually able to care for your pets all day and into the evening, but that may be subject to change. I can feed your beloved critters and take them outside when needed. Please ask if you have any questions! I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, big and small.

About: I love for animals, I’m reliable and provide attentive care. I specialize in dog walking and drop-in visits, giving your pet one-on-one attention, fun playtime, and plenty of affection. Whether your pet needs a midday energy boost or just a friendly face while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved. I always provide photo updates, cuddle time, and play sessions so you know exactly what your pet is up to while you’re gone. You can count on me to treat your furry family member like one of my own. 🩷 Whether you need daily doggy day care, extended boarding, or house sitting while you travel, I’ve got you covered! I’m flexible with drop off and pick up times and happy to accommodate your pet’s routine. Feel free to message me if you’re interested, I’m happy to see if it’s a good fit! I always make sure to follow client care instructions closely in order to maintain the pet’s routine and comfort. I go beyond and above to keep things clean, calm, and consistent with refilling food and water, scooping litter boxes, and making sure your pet feels loved and secure until you’re home again.

About: Besides caring for my own dog for nearly 13 years, including nearly a year of hospice care, I also have experience volunteering at animal sanctuaries and cat-sitting for roommates and neighbors. I consider companion animals to be family members, and the care I provide reflects that belief. I work from home, and my schedule is flexible, so I’m easily able to accommodate anything an animal in my care needs, any time of day. Because I work remotely, I’m able to keep your dog or cat company all day while house-sitting. I'll stay at your home so your pets can keep their normal routine, environment, and yard. For drop-ins and walks, my flexible schedule allows me to stop by multiple times for walks, meals, potty breaks, playtime, or just hanging out. In addition to the Rover Guarantee, I'm also privately insured as a pet-sitter through PCI, so your pets are well-covered.

About: Some people innately connect with animals. Maybe this cannot be taught or learned. Even those animals who "don't like anyone" like me. It's a gift. Perhaps they can tell I'm a gentle giant and it makes them feel safe and protected. Whether cat or dog or some other creatures, I will lavish affection and attention on them (if they're into that). Or simply let them call the shots until they're ready to warm up a bit more. As a large, fit dude, I can manage even the strongest dogs, but I'm nimble and delicate with the smaller ones and cats. It comes naturally, and your pets will sense it. Summertime affords more flexibility for me as a teacher. I do have another PT gig currently on Tuesdays & Thursdays in the afternoons. But I'm mostly available the other 5 days for now, and am willing to spend time with your pets before and after shifts on days I work. For many years, I've cared for dozens of friends' pets. Long before Rover existed, I was a resident car provider in my community. Everyone knows I am reliable, professional, responsive, and flexible. Clean, sober, non-smoker.

“Virginia was absolutely amazing! My cats are spoiled rotten and Virginia continued to spoil them while in her care! My babies are very shy and hide from everyone. Virginia kept me updated with pictures of feeding time and after. My babies actually came out of hiding for her! She stayed a little bit after feeding and gave everyone lovings. That pleased me greatly. Virginia was awesome! I recommend Virginia for the best animal care you can get!”

“I went on a work trip to DC for a week and Brandon made having to leave Drax at home so much easier and took a lot of stress out of it. He provided daily updates and did even more than I even expected him to do. I am sure Drax is going to miss the week he spent with Brandon checking on him and keeping him company”

I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they’re happy, healthy, and comfortable while their humans are away. I’m especially skilled with pets who need a little extra care. Both of my cats require a special medical diet, so I’m very comfortable preparing and following precise feeding instructions.

I look forward to meeting your pet or pet crew and helping them live their best lives! I work a variety of odd jobs so I'm available when needed for your pets! During a typical pet sitting stay I aim to spend nor more than 2-8 hours away from the house depending on the needs of the animals. Keeping animals in a familiar routine is my main focus. Whatever their usual daily schedule looks like (feeding times, walks, bedtime, etc) is what I try to recreate. I have experience administering medication if needed and am happy and able to provide walks as far as your pet enjoys.

“Katelyn was absolutely incredible with my two cats! She did a fantastic job feeding and playing with them, and she sent tons of wonderful photo updates that totally put my mind at ease. On top of that, one of my kitties had a messy bathroom accident, and she went above and beyond to clean everything up.”

“This was the first time hiring a pet sitter for my cat and I really lucked out finding Nicoletta. Riley seemed to warm up to Nicoletta very quickly and she took really great care of him. I appreciated all the pictures, videos and updates. Nicoletta even walked Riley outside on his leash which isn't always easy to do with a cat. I'm so happy to have found someone I can count on and trust to take great care of my little cat boy when I'm away from home.”
