Cat Sitting in Dermott

“Katelyn: thank you for the amazing service! I am so grateful I found you. I appreciated the daily check ins and pictures. Your review is five stars but it’s really 12 paws and two fins - top notch! The little gifts and the card were the cherry on top!! Thank you again!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets on military bases for about 4-6 years watching animals and taking them out while people are on vacation or have been sent out of state somewhere. I’m fairly flexible. I work in the morning from 7am- 330pm So I’m good at spending time with them during my breaks and after work. I only work a few days a week so I am also good for night schedules. I try to keep my focus to the animal itself only touching things that relate to the pet and their environment. I am very respectful in a clients home, I’m good at cleaning up any messes quick and efficiently and don’t really get grossed out easily. I am good at following directions and keeping boundaries.

“If you need a pet sitter and you are in Markie's travel area, don't hesitate to enlist her. Markie is very conscientious and caring. My cats are shy and leery of strangers. Unbelievably, Markie was able to make "friends" with my girl. Next time I need a sitter, I will definitely hire Markie. No doubt. Thank you Markie!!!”

About: The oldest cat I’ve owned lived to be 17 years old. He had issues with his thyroid and needed daily prescription medication which I gave him successfully at home. I’ve also cared for 3 kittens who needed to be fed milk from a bottle and litter box trained. I have experience caring for kittens to senior cats. I work from home so my schedule is pretty free to stop in and meet the needs of your cat. Providing fresh water, food, and thorough litter box cleaning are just the basics. I’m also readily available to provide gentle playtimes with your cat and to give loving pats, if they desire. My cats are provided with fresh water every morning and their water bowls are cleaned every week. My cats are fed a high quality homemade food when they ask/demand it. The litter box is checked twice a day and any waste is removed immediately. The area around the litter box is kept neat and tidy daily. A variety of safe, cat friendly toys are provided as well as a scratch pad. My current cat was adopted last year at 2 years old. She loves being outside and is an indoor/outdoor cat. The cats I have watched for friends, in their homes, were checked on regularly and all of their needs were met. I spent extra time with the cats, including the shy ones, just talking to them but not forcing my company on them.

About: I’ve spent five years in the world of animal welfare. From daycare to rescue, learning about canine behavior. Handling dogs that may have abnormal needs is not something I shy away from! I have a passion for making sure every dog in the world is shown the love and affection they deserve. I’m a mail carrier (ironic I know) so my schedule varies each week. I am on call most of the time but can usually work a full day and still have availability in the afternoon. I am happy to follow any routine your dog may need as well as provide any extra care I can during the time you are away. Every dog is different and thus I am adaptable to whatever you and your dog may need!

About: I have cared for the well-being of my own and others pets since I was 7. Anywhere from family, friends or friends of loved ones. I care for pets outside my own part-time. I am a traveling entrepreneur, artist, healer and teacher. Tending to the garden of animals and other humans helps me to remember to care for my own ecosystem. I have two indoor-only cats. My practice with caring for client's pets has ranged from indoor and or outdoor cats, kenneling and walking dogs daily. I am hyper aware of toxic plants and or allergies when it comes to animals. I adapt my plans of action given the data the animals I am caring for gives me. I am well versed with anxious cats and dogs.

About: I’ve always had pets since I was a little girl. I have taken care of dogs of all ages and frequently volunteered at my local animal shelter and vet clinic. I’m currently I full-time college student. I have my own pups to take care of so adding yours into my routine won’t be a problem ! Very flexible schedule I have a large play area. Two friendly fur babies at home to keep yours company ! Plenty of time for 6+ potty breaks/walks per day. Great idea if your dog needs some socialization !

About: I volunteered at CARE which is a no kill pet shelter for cats and dogs in 2014 and recently started volunteering at this place again, February 2018. My duties included feeding and making sure the animals had enough water. Cleaned out kennels and cages and would take the dogs outside and walk them. I have had dogs and cats since I was born and currently had a dog who loved being around other cats and dogs. She loved to play with animals as well and loved children. Her name was Daisy she is in my profile pic with me. Daisy was euthanized on September 1st, 2023. I now have another dog whose name is Emma. She’s a year old and as long as it’s ok with a client I bring her to pet sitting jobs. She loves other animals including cats and loves to play. She’s lovable and affectionate and loves attention. I also have a cat and her name is Maizy. She is four years old and I got her when she was almost 4 weeks old. I would take Daisy for walks and if I could take her with me to other places I did. One of the places I took her was to the pet store. I no longer wear a mask unless I have to. If you prefer for me to wear one please let me know and I will wear one. I use to work at a job which required me to work a 10 hour shift. I am now working at a full time job which has 8 hour shifts. I can work around my schedule if needed. My supervisor does work with me on switching my days around if needed. I can’t keep your pet in my apartment due to rules and restrictions but I can come to your home. I will provide my own food and necessities.

About: I have taken care of my own pets and friends, and neighbors for the past years since i was at least 13. I love animals and every kind! This is basically my job right now as a stay at home momma so i’m always here or always available to your pet for whatever they need! I have a front yard that is not fenced. I have 2 doggos and a one year old, we are a very pet friendly home :) My dogs are good with other dogs as well and my daughter loves dogs!! Me and my husband have a pretty good schedule so someone is usually always here with our pets.

“Austin did a perfect job. He left me thorough notes and pictures daily. It really put my mind at ease while away. I've never used someone through Rover or any other company while away but I will definitely ask Austin to do it again next time!”

About: I started pet sitting when I was 11 years old. I cared for my neighbors dogs for many years along with many other neighborhood dogs. Recently, I went to a professional canine training school where I learned to train competition obedience, scent detection, tracking, agility, and many other things. Obviously, I have a passion for animals that has consumed me since I was a young child. I’m starting my own dog training business out of my home so it’s very convenient for me to board dogs while I run my business. Find me on Facebook under Guiding Eye K9 for more details. I have a fenced in yard and a pet dog. Reacher was my program partner as school; he loves other dogs and is very well trained but he is a working dog so I don’t usually allow other dogs to interact with him. I live with my sister who has three small children but they are well behaved and they understand to be respectful of dogs that don’t know them. I myself have quite a bit of experience as dog handler and trainer-I care for all dogs like they are my own.

About: I have around 5 years of experience working in animals shelters and veterinary clinics. I have loved all animals since I can remember. For the last two years I worked at a veterinary clinic where I was clinic assistant and the primary boarding assistant. My love for animals has never stopped and while I’m in Springfield attending Missouri State I am missing my own two dogs greatly. Your pets would be treated as if they were my own! I am currently a full-time student at Missouri State and have classes from 9:30-1:30 every day. I have some breaks in between depending on the day! My two dogs Angie and Finnley are my entire world. I can assure you that your pets would be treated with patience, love and kindness!

About: I've always been around pets and loved animals ever since I was little. I am currently studying to become a wildlife biologist so it's a big part of my life. I have a giant silly German shepherd who follows me around at home so I can handle bigger dogs if needed and I also know how to take care of cats. I'm currently a busy college student, I go to school Monday through Thursday and I have an internship on Friday. On Monday through Thursday, I'm available after 3 pm. On Friday, I'm available after 2. Just let me know what you would like me to do in particular and I can help out, whether that be how you feed them, play with them, or whatever your pet needs to be happy and taken care of fully.

About: I’ve tended to dogs for the past 7/8 years of my life! Friends and loved ones trust me with the furry family members as they can ensure they will be feed according to schedule, taken out regularly, walked, and bathed/groomed without extra charge! No matter the age, your furry family member will be safe with me :) I’m currently unemployed, leaving me with a more than open schedule to provide to upmost care and attention to your furry family member while you’re away! When caring for animals, my styling is keeping an eye. I like to try and have eyes in the animal I’m sitting at all times. When on walks, I try my best to keep myself close to the road to avoid any accidents (to the animal at least!). Animal safety is huge for me as the world can be so unexpecting.
