Cat Sitting Thorold

“We are so grateful to have found Sarah to watch our cats while we were away. One of our cats is extremely timid and Sarah was very kind and patient with her - she's the only cat sitter that our girl has ever liked. We appreciated the detailed updates and photos. It brought us so much peace of mind. We will definitely be hiring Sarah to watch our cats in the future.”

About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. My pets are my family and I will make sure your fur baby is also treated like my own! I have had senior cats, puppies, fish and have a love for all animals❤️ I am a health care provider for older adults and in my free time I love to spend time with animals!! Send a message and we can chat! I have a fenced yard and a sweet two year old potcake Maizie who loves other dogs and would love to spend time with your pup!

“Holly is simply the best. I always feel relieved when our cat/home is left with her! She was able to help us out in VERY short notice and left the house better than we left it with her! Thanks again Holly”

About: I’ve always loved dogs and enjoy getting to know each one’s unique personality! I’m comfortable with everyday care including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention. I also have a soft spot for senior dogs and understand they may need extra patience, gentler activity, and care. I’m experienced with giving oral medications when needed and am comfortable following specific care instructions. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a cozy day on the couch, I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe, and well cared for. I work full-time Monday to Friday, so my availability for dog walking and drop-in visits is primarily in the evenings (5PM onwards) and on weekends I am available any time. I’m happy to discuss my availability to make sure each pet receives the care, attention, exercise, and companionship they need. I focus on keeping pets comfortable and happy! I follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, medication, playtime, and any other special needs. I provide plenty of attention, affection, and companionship while also giving pets space when they need it. I’m attentive to changes in behaviour or routine and will keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their pets are happy and well cared for.

“Audrey was wonderful with our cat, Timbit. She sent great daily updates with photos, followed all feeding and litter instructions perfectly, and we came home to a very relaxed and happy kitty. We will definitely book with her again. Thankyou Audrey!”

“Malcolm was very thoughtful and caring toward our two cats. He made sure they were looked after as if he were a family member checking on them. I can tell whenever we return from a trip how things went, and the cats act as if we were just at the grocery store and came back (not 4 days), which tells us they enjoyed their care. Malcolm followed our care instructions, and everything went smoothly while we were away. We would get Malcolm to look after our cats again in the future. A++++”

“I’m so so grateful for Jessica. I booked her services in such a short notice and she was super accommodating. She would keep me updated with videos, pics and details about how my baby was doing (my cat Simon), which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. Also, Simon really seemed to like her company and energy. I would recommend her 100% - She’s friendly, caring, diligent, enthusiastic and very kind. Thank you so much Jessica, I’m very glad I found you!!!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life (grew up with dogs, cats, hamsters and a bunny) and learned early on how to care for their unique personalities and needs. Today, I have 4 cats of my own, so I’m very comfortable with feeding routines, playtime, litter care, and giving plenty of love and attention. I adore cats very much! I grew up caring for a small havanese dog and now I help my parents with their large standard poodle. I’m best suited to caring for well-socialized dogs with stable temperaments. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I treat every animal like they were apart of my own family! My goal is to ensure they stay happy and healthy while you're away. I am self employed so I have a ton of flexibility in my schedule. It’s easy for me to prioritize caring for your pet while working! I’m doing this because I am truly passionate about animals. I understand the home is a sanctuary for both you and your pets. I prioritize safety, cleanliness and giving your pet the attention it deserves while I’m visiting. I know that every house has different rules their pets abide by and I will uphold those. I love to play and get them active as much as I can but I also adore snuggling up on the couch!

I’m respectful of your home and will make sure doors, gates, and other areas are kept secure.

I’ll never force interaction and will pay close attention to their behaviour and wellbeing.

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for over 13 years, and I have experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and needs! From senior dogs requiring medication and caring for my own dog with epilepsy, to energetic pups needing patience and training, I’ve experienced it all. I’ve also adopted a formerly feral cat, helping her feel safe, comfortable, and loved, training her myself and teaching her to be an indoor cat. I’ve watched birds, hamsters, guinea pigs, and fish as well. I truly believe every animal deserves kindness, patience, and individual attention, and I treat every pet as if they were my own! I’m currently a full time student at Seneca College, working toward my degree in Behavioural Psychology! My classes alternate between Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays, but since they’re all online, I have a very flexible and open schedule. I’m available day or night, weekdays or weekends, and I’m always happy to help with last minute needs, holidays, emergencies, or simply giving your furry friend some extra love and attention when life gets busy! Your pets’ happiness and well being are always a priority to me! I believe every pet deserves a safe, loving, and enriching environment! My own cat, for example, is incredibly spoiled, with a filtered water fountain, a carefully varied diet of wet and dry food, multiple cozy beds, a toy bin, two cat trees, scratching posts, and even her own outdoor enclosure! I also love taking her on adventures with her leash and harness and would love to do the same with your kitty. For dogs, I love going on long walks, exploring new areas, and switching up routes to keep things exciting! I enjoy playing with pets both indoors and outdoors, working on training, and capturing lots of adorable photos along the way. Whether caring for your pet in your home or mine, I’ll always prioritize their safety, comfort, individual needs, and routines. My goal is to make every pet feel just as loved and spoiled as my own!

“I feel so lucky to have found Mercedez on Rover! She went above and beyond in every way while looking after my cat. Not only did she handle all the basics perfectly, but she truly took the time to love, play, and bond with my cat as if he were her own. The frequent updates (with pictures and notes) gave me so much peace of mind, and it was clear from the very beginning that she’s a natural with animals. My usually shy cat warmed up to her so quickly, which says it all! Mercedez is responsible, trustworthy, and most importantly, a genuine animal lover. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat and a spotless home. I can’t imagine a better sitter, and I will definitely be booking her again. If you’re looking for someone you can trust completely with your pets, Mercedez is the one!”
