Cat Sitting in Cane River

“As a former member of the animal care industry, I have high standards. If you have the opportunity to let Becca care for your pets, do it. Truly above and beyond care.”

“Thanks so much for taking care of my cat for a few days, nice to know someone is checking in with him daily :). Will definitely reach out again”

“Beth was amazing to have as our pet/house sitter, making our 10-day vacation stress-free! She's an excellent communicator, and both responsible and responsive regarding all facets of home and pet care. We have 2 young cats who can be a bit shy around new people- but they loved Beth immediately and are honestly probably bummed that we're back! The house was left in excellent condition as well (not that we expected any different, but just saying:). As I'm sure is the case with all pet owners, we're always a little anxious about leaving the cats for long periods of time but really had no stress about it whatsoever on this occasion. We will definitely look to book Beth or our next time away! Thanks again!”

About: I'm a lifelong animal lover with plenty of experience! I've always had pets in my life, and believe spending time with them is therapeutic. I’ve had many dogs (large and small), including very energetic border collies, as well as lap dogs and cats. I've also had pet rabbits, hamsters, chameleons, fish and tree frogs, and I've even rescued 6 squirrels. I love nature, hiking and running and would love to take your dog with me to explore the outdoors! I have several years of experience dog-sitting, including over-nights for several weeks with multiple large dogs at a time. I will give your pet lots of love and affection and treat them like my own! NOTE: * I charge $30 for Meet and Greets. * 15 minutes of travel to and from your home is included in the service fee. I charge $1 per minute of travel outside that radius. * If the rates listed on my profile don't work for you, please let me know and I'll see if I can accommodate your budget. * I have a border collie named Morris who is very friendly and loves to play with other dogs! He is a social, energetic, and playful pup. For the safety and comfort of your dog and mine, I only accept friendly, well-socialized dogs. I’m a self-employed artist who is at home full-time with a very flexible schedule. I will try my best to work with your schedule. I welcome last-minute bookings and cancellations. I am very trustworthy, reliable and responsible. I earned my bachelor's degree in both Art Education and Psychology, and now I'm a self-employed professional artist. I've done a lot of petsitting and was a nanny for several years. I will give your pet plenty of love and affection and treat them like my own! If your pet has any special needs, please let me know.

“Allie was on time and spent good time with our dog while we were out. Thank you”

“Dawn is such a good pet sitter. Our cats are normally very reclusive around new people, but took to her immediately. We couldn’t recommend her more and will absolutely use her in the future.”

“Kayla dropped in on my cat Marbles while I was out of town for a week, the first time I’ve ever been away from her. I was nervous to leave her but Kayla took great care of her. She even went the extra mile and took the trash out when it started getting stinky!! And I know Marbles loved her company. I’d definitely book again!”

“Johnny is a fantastic pet and housesitter! He’s communicative, responsive, trustworthy, respectful of my preferences, and sends tons of photos and videos. My cats love Johnny!”

Dana S.

“Indigo was absolutely amazing! I had daily updates about how my sweet bunny was doing and was sent multiple pictures each day. Indigo gave me updates about how my bunny was getting more comfortable and when I came home he did zoomies around the room letting me know how happy he was this week. I felt so safe and comforted knowing he was so well taken care of. Will definitely be rebooking in the future for my bunny as well as my dog if I leave her next time!!”

About: {Please note I have removed Housesitting from my services through 2025 for a health recovery. Thank you for understanding! ❤️‍🩹🐶} I have been Petsitting and housesitting for friends and family for more than 25 years, so I figured, why not make new friends and continue the tradition? It’s one of my greatest joys in life, getting to know and play with new puppers and their people!! I’ve cared for many types and breeds of dogs, cats, and exotic animals (snakes, tortoises, lizards, turtles, tarantulas, exotic fish, chickens, etc.) and all types of pet personalities - shy, rambunctious, skittish, lazy, grouchy, energetic, and everything in-between. From trained purebreds to rescues who have been abused or neglected and need special attention, I have worked with and enjoyed them all. I’ve administered meds, cared for sick pups and kitties, and taken my charges to the vet when needed. I could be trained to care for your pigs, goats, sheep, horses, etc. I travel a good deal and understand the importance of being able to have your non-human child well looked after and not have to worry about them while you’re out of town, or even if you’re just at work. I work remotely, so your pet gets potty breaks often, and they have a human around almost all the time. We go for small walks around a delightful neighborhood when desired, or longer walks/hikes on nearby trails if the bigger pups are game. There are no off-limits areas in our house- my pug Napoleon slept *under the covers* in the big bed he believed he owned - but if you have different rules, they will be enforced as dictated. Any other questions, please don’t hesitate to ask! I am excited to meet you - and your human friends ;)! Working remotely from my home office provides plenty of opportunity for potty breaks and puppy love in-between client interactions on the phone. It also allows me to stay full-time in your home with your pets if overnight sits are your preference. All that is needed is a strong internet connection and a comfortable, quiet place in your home to work. I have a gated yard in the front but can take little pups on-leash if there’s any concern. There’s also a small potty area in the back yard with a full fence for off-leash outside time. I can accommodate a small crate in my home, if desired. For overnights in your home, an initial meet-n-greet will be required prior to the first engagement to ensure everyone’s comfort and safety.

“Ariel went above and beyond while we were gone for a week. Betty and Rocco were very happy when we came back and the house and the yard looked great. Will definitely use her again soon.”

“She’s AMAZING!!! Madison not only took amazing care of my cats but she also took care of my house and brought packages in! 100% would book again!!!”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets since I was 10. Family, friends and other sitters have trusted me to provide their pets reliable, consistent and compassionate care. I have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, and rodents of many kinds. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule! I’m available throughout the week and weekend for walks, drop-ins, or playtime, and I’ll always make sure your pets get the love and care they need I follow each pet’s routine closely to make them feel safe and comfortable in their own space. I always prioritize safety, making sure doors and windows are secure, cleaning up any messes right away, and using only pet-safe products. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, play, and calm companionship. My home is pet-friendly, quiet, and safe. I keep dangerous items out of reach, maintain a clean space, and give pets their own cozy area to relax. I make sure they feel at home while getting lots of care, playtime, and love.

“Lindsey just watched our two cats for us while we were away and it was a great experience. We received updates with lots of pictures each day and even my more shy girl Lynx opened up to Lindsey and we got some pictures of her as well! Definitely would recommend Lindsey for anyone needing a pet sitter and I absolutely plan to rebook her in the future for my girls.”

About: I've taken care of animals since I was young, but especially since I got my own cat around seven years ago. I'm deeply passionate about animals and animal care, and absolutely adore being around pets of all shapes and sizes!! Additionally, I've worked as a veterinary assistant, so I have much experience with all different breeds and personalities! I'm currently between jobs otherwise, so I'm happy to be wherever, whenever! I'm happy to fit absolutely anyone into my schedule, whether on short notice or in advance. I follow instructions very dutifully and will attend to your pet exactly how you instruct me to. I love to take pictures and videos, so you'll get plenty of content of your fur baby while I'm caring for them!! I prioritize their safety above all else.

“Kailyn took great care of my dog while I was away! She picked up where another sitter left off when I requested her last minute seamlessly. I would recommend her services to anyone and will add her to my list of great sitters!”

“Sarah was great! My kitties were happy and well cared for while I was away. She sent lots of pictures and made sure to care for their long coats. Thank you Sarah!”

I have had the pleasure of working with pets and their families in WNC for over 10 years. I am committed to expanding my expertise in animal care and am always receptive to new insights, techniques, and communication methods for our beloved companions. To streamline the process, I invite you to schedule a meet and greet at your earliest convenience. I look forward to connecting with you soon. Sincerely, Gabriel Lopez. Those familiar with me recognize Kira as my cherished companion, and she serves as my inspiration. I am committed to extending the same level of affection and care to your pet when you are unavailable. My daily work schedule fluctuates based on staffing requirements, with typical shifts ranging from 6 to 9 hours. However, I am able to utilize my lunch breaks to check on our pets. Please ensure your pets can be left unsupervised for 4 to 9 hours while I am at work or asleep. I utilize a "KiraLove Cam" equipped with a two-way microphone and high-definition capabilities. I am pleased to provide screenshots of your pet from this camera during their time under my care. I reside in a pet-friendly apartment complex located in the South Slope downtown area, with a hiking trail conveniently situated a few blocks away. Having lived in downtown Asheville for 10 years, I have curated optimal routes and secure locations for our pets to enjoy throughout the day until your return.

“Suzanne did the most amazing job with our beloved family member Terra. Prior to a long house sitting job Suzanne agreed to several drop in visits so that Terra recognized her. She kept her company, cared for her and got to know her so well! Our communication was excellent and that helped me be able to enjoy my vacation. It is such a tremendous gift. Thank you so much Suzanne!”

“Britain is amazing! She was great with both of our pups, very knowledgeable, and I felt 100% comfortable knowing she was there. Will definitely use her services again.”
