Cat Sitting in Byron

“Melissa was very warm during the meet and greet. We were so happy to have Melissa come and take care of Adrian. Our Adrian had a blast with Melissa and we will definitely be using Melissa again.”

“I’m very particular about who watches my fur babies. Lana is amazing. She truly cares about what I feel my babies need when I’m unable to be with them. When I come home, they’re all happy and healthy. She even customizes my high energy puppy’s walk on the 50 foot lead. I will use her every time.”

“We cannot recommend Angelina highly enough! From the moment we met her, it was clear she genuinely loves and understands cats. She took the time to get to know our cat’s quirks, routines, and favorite toys, which put us completely at ease. While we were away, Angelina kept us updated with detailed messages and adorable photos, so we always knew our fur babies were in excellent hands. Our cats are usually shy around new people, but Angelina’s calm and caring demeanor won them over in no time. If you’re looking for a compassionate, reliable, and professional cat sitter, Angelina is the one to call. She’s absolutely amazing!”

About: With over 35 years experience caring for dogs of many breeds, sizes, and temperaments, I provide calm, consistent, and loving care tailored to your pup’s needs. From high-energy play to slow strolls with seniors, I understand how to read canine body language and create a safe, happy environment. Having fur babies of my own, pet care is a natural part of my daily life. My routine is built around providing consistent, loving attention and prioritize routines, playtime and companionship throughout the day. With a flexible schedule and years of experience, I’m able to adapt to each pet’s needs. Safety, care and trust are my top priorities. I follow your instructions closely to keep routines consistent and stress-free. I maintain a clean, secure environment-always checking doors, gates, and surrounding areas to ensure pets are safe at all times. I respect your space, will treat your home with care and keep you updated with messages and photos. My experienced approach builds trust quickly with both pets and their humans-creating a familiar, relaxed setting where your fur baby can thrive while you’re away.

About: Hey there! I’ve recently lost my companion, my baby boy, Buster, a 13 year old pitty with the heart of a stuffed teddy bear. He was my first dog I’ve had from puppy to senior and I have no regrets. I am here to continue my unwavering love of animals and start to heal my broken heart. I have taken care of animals my entire life. Cats and dogs mostly. I have extensive experience in reading the body languages of cats or dogs and take the cues they give me to establish bonds and friendship. I am open to walks, play dates, home check-ins and boarding at your home. I LOVE SENIORS!!! I am comfortable giving medication and injections. I’m also pretty famous for my dog or kitty massages. Your pets will love me and I promise to care for them as I would my own (but not in that Hand that Rocks the Cradle way 😉) Happy Tails to you til we meet again! I have a very flexible work schedule that allows for ample slots of time during the week, weekends and most holidays. I only ask you give me at least 48 hours notice but I do understand that emergencies arise and I could commit to same day care services. At this time I am not open to caring for your pet in my own home but I am more than willing to abide by your home rules and guidelines for your pets needs.

“Gabriela took great care of our kitty while we were away! She sent us photos every day and kept us in the loop. She also left a little treat and note for us for when we got home. Will be rebooking in the future 🫶🏻”

“Lori is communicative, kind and always available to take care of our precious (furry) boy! We could not be happier and have used her many, many times for various lengths of holiday/vacation getaways. She’s the best!”

“Gavin was awesome. He had a ton of responsibility: three dogs, all very different needs and he took care of all of them for multiple days. Highly recommend!!”

“Katie was absolutely awesome with our cats! We got daily check in messages and pictures of our cats. We highly recommend her services and will definitely have her watch our cats in the future! 😊”

“My two cats loved having Marie for drop-in visits. Marie understands how much our cats mean to us and was attentive to my (overbearing) directions on their litter boxes, litter genie, and water bowls. The best part was that she took the time to play with them and give them attention while we were away. I would recommend Marie for not just dogs, but cat care too!”

About: I work from home and am able to provide round the clock care. I have a sweet 4 year old Bernedoodle who loves to play with other dogs. I provide 24/7 loving care at home. Pets will be well cared for by myself and my teenage children who will also play with them. I have a fenced yard and can also walk them daily. I allow them to be on furniture and have a doggy door they can use to go in the fenced backyard.

“Cindy was wonderful with my old grumpy man!! He usually takes a long time to warm up to people and he was brushing along her and asking for loving like no other! Would definitely book her again. Thanks you Cindy! ☺️”

About: I recognize the anxiety your pet experiences when you're not present and the challenge of finding a caregiver who will provide exceptional love and attention. I aim to ensure my new furry friend feels comforted and loved during this time, while also providing reassurance for their owners. Working remotely provides me with a flexible schedule, allowing for multiple visits and walks throughout the day to help fit your pets needs each day. Our family dog Ford has a life full of excitement, having 5 kids he gets a ton of love and attention. So when we’re gone on a trip I know he’s sad and lonely … I want to provide a safe and loving experience for your FUR baby as I know the feeling having to leave a big part of your family behind.

About: I was fortunate enough to grow up in a house full of animals. We had dogs, cats, rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, turtles, geckos - oh my! I started pet-sitting professionally ten years ago, providing care for a friend’s foster cats, pet cats, and dogs while they were away. Through them I found many other word-of-mouth opportunities, where I began providing overnight services and picking up skills serving special needs animals - and later with my own pets - such as administering pill and liquid oral medication to dogs and cats, as well as injected medication such as insulin and nail clippings for cats. I have experience handling a variety of pet personalities. Need help maintaining consistent training for your dog while you’re away? I can help! Do you have couch potatoes who just need company? I do that too. From walks to sleepovers, whatever your pet’s needs, I’m sure I can provide them and you a great experience. I am available full time. I am dedicated to making the time to ensure that your pets receive the best possible care to your specifications. When sitting for your pets I have utmost respect and integrity for you and your family’s home. I provide overnight services and stay where you are most comfortable. I stick to the list of care needs provided - I believe that you know your pet better than anyone! I have reliable transportation to get your pet to the vet in the event of an emergency.

“Janae was great…She was on time, very reliable and sent me great pics of my kitty! She took care of Paisley like he was her own. I had so much peace of mind knowing that my fur baby was in good hands while I was away. I’ll be rebooking with her again soon! :)”

About: For most of my life, I’ve always had a wide variety of pets. Many years ago, I was a co-owner of all A’La Carte Pet Sitting which was a fantastic experience. I am currently volunteering at the Antioch Animal Shelter and passed several ASPCA behavioral and care courses for dogs and cats. My scope of pet care extends beyond just dogs and cats. I’m passionate about providing TLC for furry friends of all types, ages and sizes. I’m comfortable administering medications and other special requests. I currently have two awesome dogs, Sadie and Jack. Three amazing cats, Sammie, Griffith and Tiger. All hang out together and are spoiled rotten. 💕 Weekly, I attend brief meetings and volunteer. Most of my time is dedicated to caring for pets. My schedule is flexible during the week and on weekends. Trust and safety are top priorities. Your pets will receive the care and love as if they're mine. I would say that accountability during a visit is essential. An initial meet-and-greet is highly recommended to ensure instructions are followed as requested, such as pet care, alarm, lights, gates/doors locked, retrieving mail, picking up poo and debris, etc.

“We have never used any kind of service like this before. Our pets are family so we were extremely apprehensive leaving our little guy behind, but we were going camping and couldn’t risk Hair-E’s safety as he is an indoor cat. Jayla was the answer to our prayers. She was wonderful with Hair-E, he was well cared for, given so much attention and bonus made a few cat friends while staying with her. I can’t express how extremely happy we are with her service and communication with us throughout our trip. From the bottom of our hearts…Thank you so much Jayla!!!”

Earlene

“Starla is a godsend to us and our pets. From the initial visit I was at ease knowing that our beloved pets were in great hands! Having this peace of mind is invaluable to us. Starla utilized all of the features implemented in the Rover app, to communicate all aspects of every visit, effectively and efficiently. We returned to happy, healthy pets with no anxiety or stress indicators whatsoever. It looked like they loved playing with the children and I would almost go as far to say that our pets were better taken care of while we were gone than when we are home. :) I can't wait to go on another trip and use her service again. THANK YOU!”

Have peace of mind while you're away at work and/or vacation! Just graduated medical school and looking for a part time while I await/start residency.
