Cat Sitting Busch

“Even before our booking, Savannah was thorough and showed her care for our pets. She asked great questions and was sure to understand our pets needs. During our time away, she was communicative and put us at ease!”

Tessa W.

“Our two cats were very comfortable with Katy S. - not a guaranteed reaction to some human visitors. This was our second booking with Katy S. and she will be our choice in the future.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. Especially puppies. My parents and I raised puppies since I was about 12 years old!! I loved it and ever since then, it’s been my dream to take care of animals! I have a full time job from Monday-Friday 8-5pm so the best time for me to look after your pets is weekends. I can stay with them after work during the weekdays though (overnight). I am very reliable and loving and I will take care of your animals and make sure they are happy! I will accommodate any needs they may have!

About: I've been taking care of the family pet's for as long as I could remember. From our adopted twin cats, may they Rest In Peace, to our current dog Piper, they've always been my best friends. As a young adult in their 20s, i decided to spend my early years trying to relearn how to love and love life. I travel to different cities for long periods of time to see different cultures, lifestyles, and yes, even animals! My days consist mostly me just reading, writing, going for walks or hikes, and learning to manage my social anxiety. Pet and/or house sitting takes no time from my daily life and quite frankly, i enjoy it more than most jobs i’ve worked in my adolescence. As someone who is now traveling state to state I am only taking house visits, dog walking, and drop-ins! I adapt easily to different environments.

About: When you go on vacation, your pets deserve a vacation, too! I strive to not only meet your dog's needs but to provide them with personalized attention and enrichment. I take the time to greet your pet, learn their personality, and let your pet lead the interactions. With five years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and ages, I've worked with everything from energetic puppies to gentle seniors, including dogs with anxiety and other special needs. Your furry friends will enjoy hiking adventures, special treats, and all the individual attention they crave. I'm also experienced in administering medications when needed. Your pet's comfort and happiness are my top priorities - because when they're having a great time, you can truly relax! I'm currently working part-time with a flexible schedule, so I have general availability. I'm fully available evenings and weekends. I accept advance reservations and operate on a first-come, first-served basis. My focus on house-sitting means all pets I care for have the comfort of familiar and safe surroundings—a key benefit over boarding. I make a point of meeting pets and owners beforehand. I also operate on a "leave no trace" principle when house-sitting. In other words, I leave your home clean and ready for your return.

About: I grew up on a farm and have always had animals around me. I subcontracted for a Rover pet sitter for 6 months as well as pet sitting for family and friends for the past several years. I am currently working Sunday through Friday and occasional Saturdays. I start at 10:30 and my hours range from 2 to 6 hours a day with occasional 10 hour days. It is very rare that I work that long especially if I plan to be dog sitting. While in the clients home caring for their pets, I do what is needed to make sure their pet is as comfortable as possible, and try to stick to their daily routine as closely as possible.

About: I’ve spent years caring for pets for my family and family friends, including dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. Through that experience, I’ve learned the importance of providing reliable, loving care while keeping pets comfortable in their own routine. In addition to dogs and cats, I have experience caring for farm animals and reptiles, so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals and their unique needs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, giving fresh water, cleaning up after pets, or simply spending quality time with them, I make sure every animal feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I understand that every pet is different, and I take the time to learn their routine and personality so they receive the same love and attention they get from their family. I work part-time, which gives me plenty of time to give your pets the love, attention, and care they deserve throughout the day. I make it a priority to keep them on their regular feeding schedule, ensure they get the exercise they need, and spend quality time with them. I also try not to leave any pet unattended for more than four or five hours, so they receive consistent care and companionship while you’re away. I provide care for pets exclusively in my clients’ homes, where they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pets. I plan to spend most of my time at your home to keep your pets company and provide consistent care. If I need to run a quick errand, I’m happy to bring dog-friendly pets along if you approve, or I’ll keep any time away as short as possible. I do my best not to leave pets alone for more than four or five hours. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would my own. I’m happy to bring in mail or packages, water plants, and keep everything clean and tidy while you’re away. I believe communication is important, so I’ll send regular updates and photos to give you peace of mind while you’re gone.

“Charles was so communicative and took amazing care of our two boys when our original plans fell through. Would absolutely use again and highly recommend him!”

“This is the 2nd time Jenna has watched my boy Reggie. She goes above and beyond to make sure his high energy demands are meant. Thank you Jenna for taking such good care of my buddy!”

About: I've taken care of dogs of all kinds of different breeds, ages, temperaments, energy levels, sizes, and needs. Whether in my own home, or in the homes of family and friends, I've been trusted to look after multiple dogs at a time. I've trained my own dogs since puppies, and feel confident in my ability to train your pets whether it be trick, basic obedience, or even potty training. I also have lots of experience walking large dogs with lots of energy that struggle to walk on leash. I am currently a student at MSU with plenty of time to check in on, take care of, walk, and love on your furry friends daily. I've spent two summers working at the Heart of the Valley Animal Shelter taking care of and loving on the pets before they found their forever homes. I've been helping raise dogs since I was 10, and I've worked with professional trainers. I care deeply for all animals and would love to work with your pets and love on them. I have an unfenced but open backyard with two friendly dogs in my own home of different energy levels to match your pet's energy and playing types. We love going for walks of all different lengths during the day, and go on lots of outings to both individual dog parks and group parks. My focus is on fulfilling your pets needs and mentally stimulating them, not just tiring them out. Whatever that means for your pet, I can make it work.

“Thank you Britney!!!”

“Emily is incredible. This was the first time I had left my pets with anyone and it was Emily that I trusted to care for them. She took time to meet me and them in advance to make sure we were all comfortable with her. My pups instantly loved her. She is kind, thoughtful and professional. She cared for my girls as if they were her own and kept me posted on their activities and well being. I will definitely ask for help in the future without hesitation.”

About: I’ve grown up taking care of cats and dogs my whole life! Living in the same neighborhood during my childhood, I was the go-to pet sitter on the street. I love creating a safe and loving space for animals, and ensuring you enjoy your time away knowing your pet is taken care of! I’m currently working at a coffee shop, the shop closes at 2, leaving my afternoon and nights open to spending time with your furry family members! I live in town, nice and close to most places. I have my transportation and reliability ready to go to provide trustworthy, consistent, and safe care for your family.

“My dogs are in good hands with Avery! She was punctual and communicated well!”

About: I've grown up with dogs for my entire life. I have 2 little toy Aussies. They have been so good for me! I love the companionship and they motivates me to get up and get moving. I would love to take your dog for walks and just love on them... although I might grow attached. I promise to give them back though. I do work full time but am more than happy to let your dogs out at lunch or take them for walks. I am also available in the evenings and weekends for any service. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your best friend. I promise to spoil them with love and attention. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. Cheers!

About: I have been raised with dogs, cats and horses since a young age. I have a 7 year old border collie who has been trained for agility and a 5 year old lab who is trained to hunt. They are disciplined dogs but also very spoiled! I currently work from home with flexible hours. When I am not traveling I am available to take care of your animal throughout the day or overnight. I have a fenced yard with two dogs who will show your animal the ropes. We go on walks every morning, lunch time and evening. Ideally we will be able to get a hike or swim in the afternoon, but if not we play ball and get plenty of time off leash throughout the day. Activities can change based on your animal’s needs. I have two very active dogs and we do everything we can to stimulate them.
