Cat Sitting Bucktown

“You did great! I was so nervous how the new cats would handle us being out of town but I'm happily surprised at how well they did and I'm sure getting good care really helped with that. Thank you!!”

“Elena is the sweetest! I’m so happy she was able to take care of my kitty while I was away. Marley is really shy and she still was able to send me pics and give me thorough updates. I would recommend her 1000%”

J D.

“Julie was absolutely amazing with my kitties, and it was such a relief to know that they were in great hands while I was away! I loved getting the photos and thoughtful updates she provided, and my cats loved her! I would give her 10 stars out of 5 if I could!”

“Charles is the best! He responded quickly to my questions, took great care of my cats and ensured the house was good while I was away. I will definitely book with him again!”

“Rachael was so thorough with her rover card comments that gave me peace of mind that my cat was in great hands. It truly makes a difference when you know a fellow animal lover is caring for your baby. Rachael took great pictures of my cat Jiji that also gave me comfort while being away from home for the week. I would 100% ask Rachael to watch Jiji again!!”

About: I am a teacher looking for a little extra cash. I have had several dogs and cats throughout the years. I currently have a high-needs dog with daily medications.

About: I’m an active student home for the summer who loves dogs, cats, and animals of all kinds! I grew up with dogs and have been caring for pets since I was 10 years old. Spending time with animals has always been one of my favorite things, and pet sitting is a wonderful way for me to do something I genuinely enjoy while helping owners feel confident their pets are in great hands. I bring patience, compassion, and attentiveness to every animal I care for. I have experience with puppies, including basic training and housebreaking, and I take a gentle, calm approach with senior pets to help them feel comfortable and secure. I’m also comfortable maintaining routines, administering medications, and adapting to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Reliability, communication, and genuine care are extremely important to me. Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, extra snuggles, or simply a dependable companion while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I’m experienced with dogs, cats, and even exotic pets such as chinchillas. And of course, you can expect plenty of photo updates of your furry family member relaxing, playing, and having fun! I am a full time student at Northeastern University, home for the summer! I have a very flexible schedule, and happy to accommodate! Your furry friend will get lots of snuggles and exercise. On nice days, I enjoy going on walks at Marsh Creek and French Creek. I am always willing to explore new areas or dog parks if that is something your dog enjoys! When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency. I follow each pet’s routine closely, from feeding schedules to exercise, so they feel secure and relaxed. I keep the environment safe by pet-proofing spaces as needed, checking for hazards, and ensuring doors, gates, and enclosures are always secure. My focus is on creating a calm, positive environment where pets feel at ease. I also send regular updates, so owners can see how their pets are doing, building trust and peace of mind throughout my time with them. When going on walks with pets, I ensure they stay safe and engaged by choosing familiar, pet-friendly routes and always keeping them on a secure leash. I’m attentive to their behavior, making sure they’re comfortable, and I avoid any potentially stressful situations. If your dog has any special needs or diets, please let me know so I can be sure to accommodate them and ensure they have the best stay possible!

“Alexis was fantastic! She was reliable and my cat loved her immediately. It was very comforting to see all of the happy photos while I was gone. She went above and beyond to also help me with an issue in my house while she was there. I highly recommend her!”

About: I have always had pets in my life, dogs, cats, gerbils, snakes, turtles, fish... I am very comfortable with everything I've come across so far. I recently retired, and am looking for ways to help others, while doing something I enjoy. My daily calendar fluctuates, but with enough notice, I should be able to meet your schedule. I am very respectful of your home and property, and will do my utmost to follow your instructions to keep your loved-one(s) safe and well cared for.

About: I have had pets all my life. From the hamster in the 80s, turtle in the 90s, and a number of cats and dogs throughout my adult life (as well as a cockatiel), I have always had an amazing connection to animals. I currently have one small rescue dog (Terrier mix) who is about 12. I am routinely the one who will feed, water and walk pets belonging to family and friends. Be it cats or dogs, I will treat your pet with the same love and conscientious care as I do my own fur baby. A little about me...I'm an HR Professional who has worked in Human Resources for over 20 years now. I love the human side of what I do, and thought that having a 'side gig' using those skills of connection and empathy, along with what I have learned over years of caring for my own animals would be a natural fit! I am also a mom of two amazing teenagers and am a recreational runner. Currently, I am available part time for morning and evening walks, and drop-ins for feeding, watering and play for vacations or other situations. I'm currently available throughout the day until August 2nd, and then mornings and evenings after this. I typically have a 3 day notice before taking on a service, however I am occasionally able to accommodate emergency pet care so if you find yourself in this situation, please reach out. Through my years of caring for numerous cats and dogs, I am very conscientious around "escape-ees" (I currently have one) and ensuring that our fur babies are safely kept in the home as I enter. I am respectful of routines and will follow them exactly as described. Also, I will send unprompted, candid video and picture messages of your pet to you frequently during care. This adds to peace of mind and who doesn't love a good random picture of their pet showing up in their messages??

“Nicola was very easy to work with - definitely recommend.”
