Cat Sitting in Catawissa

About: Don’t let my age fool you. I’ve raised Labradors for 40 years along with various cats at the same time. I’m a Nanny through and through. Whether human babies or your fur babies, I’ll feed, walk, clean, (including litter boxes and pet kennels) and love on your fur babies just like you do. No dog too big, no cat too small. I am currently semi retired. My time is very flexible and very fluid. I am applying for a school bus driver position and that would be mornings and afternoons so that leaves me the rest of the day to be available for your fur babies. I will come to your home and do whatever is required for your for baby. If necessary, I can bring one dog at a time into my home. I have two Labrador retrievers who are very friendly with other dogs. For cats I would come to your home to take care of them.

“Mandy was wonderful with my two cats while I was away for the holidays. They usually don’t feel comfortable around unfamiliar people. However they warmed up to Mandy quickly! I appreciated Mandy’s prompt communication and thoughtful care.”

“Angelina is always dependable and takes great care of our boys!”

About: Hi pet parent! My name is Hunter, and I am a lifelong animal person. I have been around animals of all kinds since I was young. My background includes active military, where I served in military police, and some experience with K9. As a skilled pet care provider, my foundation is built on formal education and hands-on care. I earned a degree in Animal Science and have dedicated years to animal rescue work and five years as a Veterinary Technician. My experience as a vet tech has prepared me for: * Medications & Injections- we can find a creative, low-stress way if they are resistant * Health Monitoring- keenly observing appetite, hydration, and potty breaks * Diet & Conditions- strong understanding of various diseases, complex conditions, and strict dietary/food restrictions I prioritize your pet`s emotional well-being using fear-free handling techniques. I deeply respect animal behavior and always observe boundaries to minimize stress. I also like to focus on enrichment, ensuring your pet receives both engaging mental stimulation and physical exercise. Building a bond is key- and yes, so are the snuggles! *Fun facts about me* *I have my own rescue child, Cooper, who is the highlight of my day. I was currently working at an animal shelter when he came in with his litter from a not-so-good situation. I asked for a sleepover, and I never brought him back. :) *My love for high-energy dogs was solidified during a dog sledding tour in Coldfoot, Alaska! I got to meet and snuggle the entire team of huskies (photo in gallery!) and witnessed firsthand their incredible drive and passion for running. * Committed gym-goer here! My love for health and fitness ensures your pet gets active care. I believe in making a healthy life a priority for all of us! * Gaining invaluable skills in surgery and dental work during my time as a vet tech. My favorite part, however? The recovery cuddles! I currently have full open availability for drop in visits and walking. I have a very flexible schedule which allows me to commit fully to your pets needs. Your peace of mind is my top priority. I am dedicated to providing a safe, trustworthy, and respectful environment for your pet and your home. I do require a meet & greet for all new bookings. This is a vital step for us to: * Confirm it`s a great fit for all of us * Discuss your pet`s exact routine, needs, and boundaries * Allow your pet to get comfortable with me before the booking begins I know how much you will miss them! Communication is key for excellent pet care- the more details you provide, the better. I will treat your pet just like they are my own, providing regular updates, including photos and videos. You can relax knowing they are happy and well-cared for. You can trust that I will respect your space entirely, treating your home with the utmost care, ensuring I leave it just as clean and tidy as I found it.

“Cierra took great care of our kitties while we were on vacation. She always shared a picture and message after every visit and made sure that our cats’ food, water, and litter were all taken care of. She’s was able to help us out even though we booked on the late side and we sure appreciated that!”

“Moriah was great. She was very responsive and easy to communicate with. It really helped put us at ease leaving our cat at home while we were away. We would use again!”

About: I love animals and am very responsible with them. I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life. I have also looked after many animals for people when they have been out of town. I have experience with puppies as I have trained my family dog as a puppy. I have also cared for my elderly family dog and know the attention and care they require as well. I work during the morning into the afternoons occasionally. So I’m pretty open and free to give ur pets the attention, care, and love that they need. I am familiar with the needs of dogs and cats. I will be able to care for them and provide your pet with the basic needs as well as whatever other special things your pet requires. Your happiness and your pet’s happiness are my number one priority.

“Cody was friendly and excellent with my pups. Sent photos and kept me posted on their day. Great experience and look forward to working with him again!”

About: I have cared for animals for over 10 years on my own, which included letting them out taking them on walks, feeding them cleaning up outside bathing them. I also volunteer at shelters to help care for their animals. I have an extra few hours in my day, which allows me to have time to care for others when needed because I know how difficult it is to find a sitter while going away I would care for them just as I do my own with love respect and I would follow their routine and what they do for their pet so they feel comfortable while they are gone

“Alexandra was great! My cats were well taken care of and snuggled! She left our house very well kept and the litter boxes were nicely tended to. It’s like the cats didn’t even know we were gone!”

“Ashley is amazing! She was great with our traumatized dog. She knew how to handle her well.”

About: I have been around animals my entire life. I worked on a dairy farm from ages 13-16. I have always had dogs and cats myself. Lastly, I have both watched cats and taken care of dogs for friends and family. I currently work full-time at Geisinger. I am looking for some way to spend the limited free time I have. I am usually available after 5pm every day and available on most weekends. With the occasional exception. I will treat clients homes and animals with respect and care at all times. Follow directions and make sure the dogs are well cared for. I have 2 cats at home that are spoiled and very much loved.

About: I have worked in the vet med field. Taking care of pets is part of the job. I was a kennel assistant as well. I am pet CPR and First Aid Certified, so you can have comfort that I will know what to do in emergency situations for your pets. Will take real time photos of your pets to keep you updated while you are away. I am going to school for becoming a certified veterinary technician. So I feel my skills help me help people with their pets. I have done house calls for giving medication, nail trims, and pet sitting. I WILL NOT take care of your pet if they are aggressive or have bitten someone in the past. For unvaccinated pets I will not take care of them if they have bitten someone. No acceptions! ALL pets are prefered to be up to date on vaccines. I also require a meet and greet of your pets prior to any services so they get to know me and no complications arise, especially for house sitting. I will come to your house and do anything they would need, making it more comfortable for your pet. Whether it be walking your pets, pet sitting, giving medication, nail trims, or taking them out to potty.

About: Since I was little i have always loved spending time with animals. I got my first dog when I was in 3rd grade and ever since then I have been taking care of dogs. Last December I adopted a puppy and he has been my main priority since. Spending time with dogs is what I believe to be the best way to spend my time! Currently I am a student in highschool and I participate in Track and field. I work at a local golf club, but the schedule is pretty open. I would be open mainly weekends or most weekdays after 5:00 unless I have a track meet. Currently I care for three dogs in my home. Two littles and one very big dog. We have a large yard but we keep our dogs leashes when they go out. Therefore in order to give them exercise we take them on long walks. As a caretaker I would be sure to put your pets safety first as well as any rules you place.

“She did an amazing job. Our kitty's are sometimes not the happiest to go places and with one being diabetic and needing insulin every 12 hours. We highly recommend her and really hope to use her again. This was our first time using this and it was a great experience.”

About: updated 03/08/2025 I have a routine for walks with my husky about 2-3 times a day. He loves to go on walk, its his daily highlights and I will make sure to bring your dogs along with us plus my husky is super friendly and playful, we will make sure that your pets could get all the energy out for the day. I am a nurse. I am reliable and can accommodate your pets needs. I believe my passion, skills, knowledge, and experience set me apart from other sitters. I have also taken the time to acquire essential skills and knowledge through training, research, and networking with other pet sitters. I am starting to upload funny videos of my dog on social media, I hope everyone can enjoy watching him I dedicate sufficient time to spend with the pets. I take a professional approach to this task and spend up hours caring for pets. I believe that this time is enough to play with them, and attend to their needs. Therefore, I consider sitting pets a professional job. I will be sending tons of pictures as well. When I am working with my clients, communication is key. I am always transparent with my clients in terms of sharing my schedule and the various services I offer. I also ask for permission from the client before I walk their dogs or handle their pets. If I notice any peculiar things with the pets, I always share the information with the client. We have fence yards for pets to play, big cages if needed. For house sitting make sure your dog will be taken care at least 2-3 times a day.
