Cat Sitting in Darlington

“Alexis was wonderful: very communicative, flexible, thorough, and punctual. She did a great job dropping in our two cats for a few days, and we especially loved that she took time to give the cats affectionate attention and to send us photos with every visit. Highly recommend, no complaints, and hope to book Alexis again!”

About: I’ve been around pets all my life. From the moment I was born we had cats and my family members had dogs. My cousin trains dogs and has been for 3 years, she gets them as little puppies and I am always around them. I walk dogs frequently and am around them frequently! I help a lot of people dog sit! I would like to get some extra cash and exercise while I am at school! I have an easy schedule this semester and would love to walk a dog or care for a pet. I’ve dog sitted many times before. Everytime I make sure I take them on walks, make sure they pee/poop, and feed them properly, but you can’t forget to love on them!! At home I love on my pets a lot, feed them, and change their litter box.

“Lexi is awesome!! She was very flexible working with us and is great at communicating! She ensures our puppy is taken care of and is highly recommend her to any friend or family!”

About: Being around dogs has been the foundation of my life since the age of 3. From caring for my own pets, helping our neighbor who bred collies, and caring for dogs while also caring for my patients at work as a home health occupational therapist, I feel like every pet is part of my family. My heart is full around any four legged friend and I strive to care for them, show them the deepest love, and teach them as I do my own children. It’s in my blood! I currently work as a home health OT with a flexible schedule during the day. I also have windows of time during the evenings and weekends to care for any pet. Teaching my sons responsibility and skills required to care well for animals are just an added bonus! I own my home with a large yard in the rear of the home. I’m also able to provide in-home boarding as I do not currently have a pet in the home. I also am able to offer drop-in services to address any home needs (mail, plant care, shoveling or vacation mowing), dog-walking, and light housework. Additional services like dog-walking upon request- let’s make your time away painless without concern at home.

About: I have three dogs of different breeds, mixed breeds and purebreds. They’re all different sizes and energy levels so I am well versed in different dog personalities! I also have three rescue cats and enjoy playing with all animals! I am currently a student finishing a masters program at Saint Vincent College. I live locally and I grew up in Ligonier Valley! I do work part time, but I am planning to move in the future and would like to be able to save anything I can! I not only love animals, but I am dedicated to supporting you while you’re away from your fur family! I’m a confident person around pets and will keep them safe and loved while in my care! All of my pets are rescued and I grew up in a home being a part of training them and how to behave around them!

About: I’m Emily! A little about me: I love to run, lift, paint, and read. I am currently a student at the University of Pittsburgh studying Speech Pathology and Audiology who’s home for the summer! I've been a pet owner myself for about 5 years now. My family currently has three cats and has had a dog and another cat in the past. Within the last seven years I have dog and cat sat for a lot of my extended family and friends. I'm currently on the hunt for a part-time job for the summer, so I have plenty of time on my hands to look after and care for pets. I also have my own car and am hanging out with friends a lot, so I am always around. I am very diligent with making sure doors and windows are shut and locked to ensure that your pets do not go in or out (if they're indoor pets/ not on a leash) as I have to do that with my own pets! I also realize as it grows hotter, animals become dehydrated and hot as well, and I am careful to make sure water bowls are filled, and there is water during walks as well.

About: I have been around paws and claws since the day I was born. My family always has known me to love animals unconditionally. Times where others were on vacation including my parents, aunts/uncles, friends etc would trust me with checking in, playing, feeding, and walking. I currently work full time in health care. (3, 12hr shifts) I'm looking to get to know/walk/care for your pets on my days off! My wife and I have two fur babies. One a Black Lab and the other a Sassy Shiba Inu. Trusting me with walking and/or visiting your furbabies would be my honor and I would ensure a trusting, safe, fun environment to make you wanna choose me again and again on my available days! I keep close eye on my dogs and when it comes to anothera I promise to be extra vigilant to ease any anxiety you may have from being away from them. I love pets unconditionally and treat all animals with kindness, compassion, and lots of love cause we know they are our big/small drooling babies.

“Carolyn did an excellent job!!! Reliable- responsible- kind- Took care of our two turtles, fish, three cats, and a snake! Highly recommend her!!”

About: I’ve been passionate about working with dogs since I was 11, when I began training my own dog, Oliver, in both obedience and agility at B&D Creekside. I’ve continued training and competing in agility for the past seven years. Additionally, I have experience working at See Spot Run Doggy Daycare, where I was a keyholder responsible for the care and supervision of multiple dogs throughout the day. I also have hands-on pet sitting experience, including check-ins, feeding, playtime, and overnight stays to ensure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I take pride in providing reliable, attentive, and experienced care for every dog I meet. I have plenty of availability this summer for pet care since I’m currently on break from school and only working part-time at Starbucks. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to accommodate a variety of schedules, including mornings, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize their comfort, routine, and safety. I’m experienced with all breeds and confident handling reactive dogs, thanks to my work at a doggy daycare and my own two reactive pups. I read body language closely to ensure every pet feels secure and understood.

About: I’ve had pups in my house for my entire life 21 + years, i am also a ferret lover and a cat lover. friends and family have relied on me to watch their dogs before while they’ve been on vacation. I’d love to meet your pets! I’m currently an online college student just trying to make enough money to pay the bills! I also have worked in the restaurant industry since I was 15 but have always had a love for animals. I’m currently going to school for environmental science and hopefully one day will get my masters in geoarcheology! I have loads of free time around my serving schedule! Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions! I love to just hangout with your dog and get to know them! Meet and greets are always fun! I love walking dogs it’s great exercise for me as well as them of course!

“First and foremost, it was clear from the time of the meet & greet that Natasha really loves cats, both in things she talked about and how she reacted when they peeked out and showed their faces. That was a really important thing for us. Her communication was great from the initial contact, even confirming the meet & greet about an hour ahead of time, and that continued during our time out of town. She asked conscientious questions about things we might or might not want her to do (both with the cats and in general with the house). She included some detail in the Rover Report Card each day so we knew how the cats were doing, whether they were interacting with her, etc. And we got daily photos, even if/when they stayed in hiding. That gave us a great sense of comfort to see their faces each day---like most people, we're very attached. With other places (including a boarding facility), we haven't gotten daily pics, and it really made a world of difference that we did. We're very happy with everything and would absolutely have Natasha check on the girls when we're out of town again.”

About: I have taken care of animals and pets since I was young. Growing up, we had puppies, dogs, cats, rabbits and chickens. With my children we had guinea pigs, hamsters, and cats. I currently work full time but I have a full hour for lunch to stop by and care for your pets. I can do drop ins or stay at your house, whatever is needed to make sure your pet is safe and loved. I have two cats at my house. They are well loved and follow me everywhere. I make sure they have nutritious food and clean water always. I have helped with dogs, making sure they are safe when out walking. I make sure they are given the right amounts of food and always have water. As a pet lover, I want to give them companionship, love, and security while their "parents" are away.

About: I’ve had pets all my life. I’ve had dogs, cats, horses and other farm animals before. I love and adore animals. Thanks for your time. I’m currently working part-time at a hotel. I would like to be doing pet sitting a few days of the week. I can’t wait :) For my pets at home i have a fenced in section of my home. My home is average sized so good amount of room. We have lots of toys for our doggos

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats in all stages of life. I grew up with dogs in the home and cats around my grandparents' farm. I currently have 2 dogs, one 5 years old and the other 13 years old, as well as a 2 year old cat. All of my animals have been rescues. I have always loved spending time around animals, as they touch a special place in my soul. I currently work full time as a preschool teacher, but I am looking to keep myself busy on the weekends as well as a couple nights a week. Feeding & Hydration I’ll follow your pet’s regular feeding schedule, ensuring they get the proper portion sizes and nutrition. Fresh water will always be available to keep them hydrated. Exercise & Playtime Whether it’s a daily walk for your dog or interactive playtime for your cat, I make sure to engage in activities that will help keep your pets active and entertained. I can also tailor these activities based on their energy levels and preferences. Comfort & Companionship Pets thrive on companionship, so I’ll spend quality time with them. I can offer cuddles, gentle grooming, or just sit with them to make them feel safe and loved. I’ll also ensure they have a comfortable resting place. Maintaining Routine & Security I understand how important it is for pets to stick to their routines, so I’ll keep their schedules as close to normal as possible. I’ll also keep your home secure, following any instructions you’ve provided about gates, doors, or safety protocols. Communication with You I know you’ll want to stay updated on your pet’s well-being, so I will send you regular updates, including photos and videos, to let you know how they’re doing.
