Cat Sitting Cathcart

“We cannot recommend Cameron highly enough. This was Cameron’s first time caring for our household, which includes two cats and two senior African Grey parrots. Anyone familiar with parrots knows they can have very specific care requirements, personalities, and routines, so entrusting their care to someone new is not something we take lightly. From the beginning, Cameron was conscientious, reliable, communicative, and clearly committed to providing excellent care. He took the time to understand each animal’s needs and gave us confidence that they were in capable hands while we were away. During our trip, an unexpected pet emergency occurred. Cameron responded immediately and with remarkable professionalism. He followed our “in case of emergency” instructions, contacted the appropriate people, sought veterinary care without hesitation, and kept us informed throughout a very difficult situation. We were deeply impressed by his calm demeanor, sound judgment, and genuine compassion during an incredibly stressful circumstance. In addition to handling the emergency exceptionally well, Cameron took wonderful care of our other pets and our home. The level of responsibility, kindness, and dedication he demonstrated went far beyond our expectations. Trustworthiness, good judgment, compassion, and genuine care for animals are qualities that cannot be taught, and Cameron demonstrated all of them. We would not hesitate to have him care for our pets again and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for an outstanding pet sitter. Thank you, Cameron. We are truly grateful for everything you did for our family”

“Having Nickey watch our kitties has given us the peace of mind to consider longer vacations. She's impressively punctual, follows directions perfectly, and goes out of her way to spend quality time with them every visit. We can't recommend her highly enough!”

“Paige was reliable and friendly. We appreciated the pictures and communication. We would definitely recommend Paige to a friend and plan on booking again in the future.”

“Mike helped us out for a last-minute short trip, and did a great job with our two cats. In addition to following directions for their care, he kept their food dishes really clean, which we appreciated. When we returned, they seemed calm, which we interpret to mean they were comfortable and content with Mike! We would definitely hire him again!”

“Joslynn showed up a couple of minutes early to walk and check in on Cali, my German shepherd puppy. Cali seemed happy and tired when I arrived home from work. Thank you to Joslynn for not being afraid of the puppy chewing and jumping stage.”

“Hope did an amazing job taking care of our cat and senior dog. She was so sweet and reliable. She made sure our dog got her medicine, kept her company, and always sent pictures and an update on how they were doing. I would love to have the opportunity to work with Hope again in the future! Highly recommend.”

“Sarah was a total rock star with Chekhov and Kalinka. She helped troubleshoot all the automatic feeder nonsense that happened. I would have her back to take care of them every single time I go out of town!”

“Mary is incredibly responsible and thoughtful. She even made an extra stop before I left to make sure the door code was working properly. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such good hands while I was away.”

About: I have owned and taken care of pets including dogs, cats, birds and turtles for decades and I have owned every kind of pet you can imagine as I raised 6 children on a 50-acre ranch. I recently lost my sweet dog unexpectedly and spending time with other dogs feeds my soul. I am self-employed and work from home so I am very flexible. I can also take my work with me wherever I go if necessary. I am very available Currently, I am not caring for other dogs in my home. My cats are skittish after losing our dog who was their protective canine friend. We are working on this so it is a possibility depending on the dog.

About: I have tons of paid experience watching animals for friends and family. Including dogs of all sizes, cats, guinea pigs, and even chickens. I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my whole life. My love for animals has only grown as I’ve gotten older! I’m currently employed at a seasonal job at a baseball park, averaging only a handful of shifts a month. This allows me plenty of flexibility to take care of your pets! I am well equipped to care for your furry friends and respect your home! I have experience in house sitting and have lived with a dog/s my whole life. I am well accustomed to the care and attentiveness that goes into being in someone else’s house whilst pet sitting.

“Miranda was absolutely wonderful. She took the time to get to know our dogs before we left on our trip. During our trip, she sent updates that made us feel much more at ease knowing that our dogs, who are a large part of our family, were well taken care of. After we got home, I think they were a little sad that she wasn't there to hang out with them some more. We would absolutely go with her in the future and we're so thankful that she took such amazing care of our dogs.”

“Whitney was great watching our elderly dog and young cat while we were gone for a few days. She even had to deal with our dog having some stomach issues and cleaned it all up for us. She checked in and out with photos each visit and it really put us at ease that they were well cared for!”

“Emily is amazing! Consistent, friendly, professional, caring, and dependable. We adore Emily and will definitely be utilized her services in the future!”

About: I always had a large dog growing up. Just haven't gotten one of my own. All dogs are welcome, big or small, as long as they are potty trained, and dont chew on shoes or furniture. I am available to make sure they are walked, fed, and let outside throughout the day. There are no children in the house to worry about. The house is small, but full of love. There is nothing that is breakable or dangerous to the dogs. I currently work full time teaching during the morning and day and have free afternoons. I have a roommate who if I am not home can tend to the dogs. There is a safe road to walk down to get the energy out. I am absolutely willing to take dogs to the park if they enjoy car rides.

“Thank you so much Natalie! Milo was clearly well cared for which gives great peace of mind!”

“Kylie did a fabulous job on the drop in visit today, esp as one of our dogs decided to destroy a pillow! She let us know right away and fixed things. So appreciate the extra TLC today!!!”

Kristen S.

“Kristen was great! Her care of our fur baby was meticulous & she updated us every day with photos. Our home was also respected by her as we noticed almost no difference from when we left it. We are happy to have found such a responsible sitter & hope she is available for our next trip. Five stars in every department!!”

“Ethan was wonderful and very attentive to my cat’s needs. His communication was excellent from the start, and I felt completely at ease leaving my cat in his care. Would definitely book his services again!”

About: I grew up showing and working with terriers in 4H. These days I work as a professional dog trainer, so reading canine body language comes naturally to me. Large breeds and working dogs are where I'm most at home. I share my life with a working line German Shepherd, so high energy and serious pulling power doesn't rattle me. I keep dogs on their normal feeding and walking routines, watch for the small signals that show how they're settling in, and give each one calm, attentive company. My focus stays on keeping your dog comfortable, appropriately stimulated, and genuinely cared for while you're away. I am insured, mentored, and committed to my mission of creating happy healthy canine companions. My schedule is flexible and build around the current dogs in my care, which is a big part of why I can give a visiting dog real attention. Dogs are already woven into my daily rhythm, so feeding, walks, play, and rest breaks are built into my day rather than squeezed around it. I plan my hours around each dog's routine and stay close by for most of the day, with regular potty breaks, appropriate mental and/or physical stimulation, and calm downtime in between. I understand that dogs need help to decompress when in new environments and situations. My first focus is to help them orient to me and if boarding, my home. This looks like social games, confidence building games and routine. I help all dogs know the expectations I have for them and set them up for success and a calm mind. If boarding with me the first step will be on leash while supervised or in a crate if not. This is until the dog and I have a relationship and I know them as far as safety around my resident dog and cat. If safe they are welcome to join in on pack play and house access. Otherwise they will remain safely separated from my resident animals. I live on about an acre in the Clearview woods. I have a 4ft fenced yard as well as additional accessible land to dogs that can earn that privilege. There are no neighboring animals for the dogs to see. I can safely separate client dogs from resident animals. I am well versed in dog body language, decompression, and safe play.
