Cat Sitting in Crawfordsville

“Vanessa was so great. She is a real cat charmer and went the extra mile to give our babies the patience and attention needed. I will hire her again!”

“Emily was awesome! I was super nervous because I had never had someone watch my dog before but she took great care of my high energy dog while I was gone. Will definitely schedule again sometime!”

About: I have been the care taker of many animals since childhood from horses to chinchillas. Dogs and cats are my favorite to take care of since they're so communicative. I'm not going to college right now so my schedule extremely flexible. If I'm not available I will always give a heads a couple days ahead of it. It depends on the animal somewhat for how I care for them since not all owners and pets are the same. I just make want to make sure that they are comfortable fur babies while I'm my care. The rest is just me making sure they're feed, walked, and loved.

About: I’m a veterinary technologist who has been working in human medicine for the past decade. I miss caring for and interacting with all my four legged friends. I grew up with all sorts of pets( horses, dogs, cats, fish, chickens, parakeets, reptiles) and have always been an “animal” person. I am comfortable giving medications and I am very detail oriented. I have been described as responsible, reliable, and respectful. I know hard it can be to leave your furry family member with someone new. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and health would be my top priority. I would love to meet your dog or cat(or horse,or chickens,or livestock, or reptiles!) and love them like my own(who aren’t spoiled at all ;) ) I currently work part time, so I would have plenty of time to make sure your pet is properly cared for daily. I do not work on the weekends and would be happy to walk or play with your dog/cat all weekend. I am quick to respond to any potential issues that may arise in the moment. I am keen on reading pets behaviors and body language and can act appropriately. I am very responsible and respectful not only of your pets, but of your space as well.

About: I love all animals deeply, especially cats and dogs. I want to make sure every creature is taken care of and knows they are loved. I provide some senior dog and cat care. I have a pretty open schedule. I will update my schedule when needed. I am available every day of the week except on Wednesdays from 9 am-12 pm. I am committed to keeping your animal safe by keeping an eye on them wherever they are and making sure they are comfortable and happy.

About: I rescued both my dogs from a barn mill. I am familiar with puppy issues, dog issues, can administer meds/supplements or give specialty care if needed. I love my babies like family & will love yours as such. I just graduated from UO and am waiting to go to grad school! Apart from random camping trips, I am available pretty consistently. My schedule revolves around my own animals & I can easily incorporate yours as well. I will ensure to care, provide and protect your baby like my own. My dogs and cats are my life & I cannot imagine anything happening to them so I understand the trust you are putting in me to care for yours. I am not afraid of putting my life on the line for theirs.

About: I have one dog and two cats of my own. I care for them like they were my children and they are very spoiled. I have also cared for other people's animals over the years when they are out of town in my home or theirs. I love animals and being with them. I play in my large fenced yard with dogs, and we enjoy the puppy pool in the summer. I have a crate for crate trained pups or crate training your pup. I also have separate spaces for pets if they are anxious and need extra attention and space from the other animals in my home. I have both dog and cat toys around the house! Your pets will be loved and cared for while you are away or unable to be with them. I work full-time, but I am home in the evenings and come home for lunch to play with my pets and make sure they have the opportunity to go to the bathroom every four hours. I work four days a week so I am fully available Friday, Saturday and Sunday all day and night. I am a teacher and therefore available during winter break, spring break and summer break all day/night. I have a fenced in yard. I also live in a quiet dead end Street on farmland. We go for walks regularly at least one to 2 miles a day. I do have a pet safe fence system. If that is something you prefer I use while your pets are with me. They will never be left outside unsupervised though.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs big and small for 8 years. I have some experience training puppies and adult dogs as well. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, over all take great care of their furry friends for weeks before. I have always had a love for furbabies, I always volunteered at the rescue shelters as much as I could. Im currently enrolled in college, however after class hours and in between I spend all my time taking care of my fur babies at home. I am not currently working which gives me plenty of time to play and care for your loved pups/kitties. I have a big yard and 2 playful pups to keep your furry friends company. I have a couple crates so that if needed they can have down time away from each other to ensure I can prioritize the care given to your loved ones.

About: I was raised in a dog and cat household and loved taking care of them. For the brief time in my adulthood that I did not have a pet, I would dog/cat sit for a various families often. I am fond of elderly dogs/cats and have taken care a few (including giving medications, shots, cooking specific diets, etc). I am also comfortable feeding farm animals such as horses and mules. I work full-time from my home allowing flexible time to play and care for animals. My outings are usually quick errands around town so my pets get a lot of dog mom time! I am available to do longer stays given that I work remote and love making pets feel safe and comfortable whilst their owners are away. I have a fenced-in yard and 2 friendly dogs (lab and border collie mix) to keep your furry loved one company! I also play music often for myself and for the dogs. I find it helps soothe some anxiety for them as well!

About: My ability to adapt to a wide range of pets and their specific needs. I have experience with both puppies and senior pets, so I'm able to provide care tailored to their age, temperament, and health conditions. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always prioritize creating a comfortable and safe environment that mimics their routine as closely as possible. In my own home, I ensure that the space is pet-friendly with plenty of room for play, relaxation, and exercise. For dogs, I provide daily walks, playtime, and interactive activities that stimulate both their minds and bodies. I also stick to their feeding and medication schedule to ensure consistency. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I aim to maintain their usual environment to reduce stress. I follow the specific instructions provided by the pet owner, including feeding times, medication administration, and any behavioral needs or preferences. I also provide regular updates and send photos or videos to ensure the owners are at ease while they’re away. When caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide a tailored experience based on the service requested and the specific needs of the pet. In my home: I create a welcoming, pet-friendly space where animals have plenty of room to play, rest, and engage in activities. I provide daily exercise, such as walks or playtime, and offer mental stimulation through puzzles or interactive toys. For puppies, I incorporate basic training into daily routines using positive reinforcement, and for senior pets, I focus on a calm environment with extra attention to comfort and mobility. I stick to the pet’s feeding and medication schedule, and provide regular updates with photos or videos to ensure pet owners feel connected to their pets. In a client’s home: I follow the pet’s established routine as closely as possible to minimize stress. This includes feeding, administering medication, and offering appropriate physical activity. I take extra care in maintaining the pet’s environment—keeping it clean and secure—and ensuring that any special needs, like senior care or behavioral issues, are addressed with patience and care. I also respect the client’s home by following their specific instructions and keeping the home tidy, giving owners peace of mind that their pets and home are well cared for. No matter the setting, my priority is to ensure that pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for while owners are away.

“Sionna took such good care of our babies, and even managed to draw out our scaredy cat from under the bed on the second day! Sionna was communicative, consistent, and prompt. Thanks so much, Sionna!”

About: I’m a life long animal lover and dogs have always been apart of my life. I have experience volunteering at animal shelters and horse rescues. I often take care of friends and neighbors pets while they are away. I share my life with one dog of my own that has anxiety issues so I’m aware some friends need a little extra patience and love. My pet sitting availability is Tuesday through Thursday only at the owners place of residence. Dog walking hours: 6AM-7PM Tuesday through Thursday. 6AM-11AM Friday. Not available on weekends. I try to cater to each pet in my care as dogs are not one size fits all. I take any special requests to heart and have worked with elderly/sick pets in the past. I want to make the time with your pup as fun as possible and am looking forward to making furry friends.

“Nadiya was an amazing Rover hire. She watched our tuxedo cat Simon or five day. Checked on him 2 times daily. Fed and socialized with him. Received great pics daily. Highly recommend her.”

About: Hello, my name is Cassandra. I grew up in Alaska, where one of my main responsibilities was caring for our animals. Throughout my life we’ve had huskies, bulldogs, labs, cats, and even goats. I’ve always been surrounded by pets, and I truly love caring for them. This past December, I lost my best friend of 13 years, Chewy, to congestive heart failure. She had separation anxiety and required daily medication, so I’m very familiar with special needs and behavioral care. I currently don’t have any pets of my own, but I’ve been house-sitting and pet-sitting for over 10 years in Alaska, and for the last five years I’ve also cared for my family’s pets here in Oregon. I don’t smoke and I don’t drink. I live in a small, cozy home in a great neighborhood with lots of places to walk dogs. I have no children and a small fenced backyard perfect for safe outdoor time. I’m the kind of sitter who loves snuggles—I’ll happily let your pets on the couch or even the bed unless you prefer otherwise. I know how important routines are, and I’m committed to keeping your pet comfortable, happy, and cared for just the way you do. I enjoy long walks, going to parks, and giving animals the attention they need. You can always count on me to be responsible, reliable, and compassionate. I’m also planning a month-long trip to Africa in six months to experience the culture and volunteer in orphanages. Everything I earn from pet care will help support that dream. I truly appreciate the opportunity to care for your fur babies while working toward something meaningful. Thank you for considering me—your pets will be in loving hands. I’m incredibly grateful to have the opportunity not to work elsewhere right now, which means I’m home full-time. Your fur baby will never be left alone—especially important if they have separation anxiety. I’m a very private, peaceful person, so it will just be me giving your pet constant attention and quality time in my quiet home. My goal is to make caring for animals my permanent, full-time work, and I would love the chance to care for yours. Routine is just as important for pets as it is for people. I’ll follow your instructions closely and keep your fur baby’s schedule as consistent as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed. Pets adjust so much better when they know what to expect, and I’m committed to maintaining that sense of stability. I have a small, quiet home with no children, a fenced backyard, and a neighborhood full of parks, sidewalks, and green spaces—perfect for walks and outdoor time. I always want animals to feel at home here, so they’re welcome on my furniture and bed as long as you’re comfortable with that.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since the age of 10, I have one dog of my own and he is like another one of my babies! I have experience with all breed sizes and love them all the same! I am a stay at home mom to my son and daughter .I have a very flexible schedule. I am home most of my days and we enjoy hanging out with our fur babies. I have a half acre fenced in yard. I have one dog who loves to play with other dogs. My two kids also love dogs and enjoy playing with them outside or snuggling with them once they’ve ran out all their energy!

About: I have had and cared for animals my entire life and have years of experience walking and feeding dogs, cats, and many others. I am reliable and also can be very flexible when needed. I also volunteer at Greenhill animal shelter and have lots of experience with all types of dogs and their needs. I am currently a college student and have a pretty open schedule. I am always looking for ways to help out and love surrounding myself with animals. I am a very active person and love walking, hiking, trips to the beach, or just laying around keeping them company! I have classes but times vary, never all day though. I follow rules and do everything that is asked, I leave everything as I came and pick up after myself. I also will ask questions to avoid problems!
