Cat Sitting in Dowling

“Jamie left pictures when she came in. It gave me piece of mind to know they were okay and someone was spending time with them and not just feeding them. She even tried to find where the wild mother cat hid her kittens. Thanks Jamie!”

“Emily was great at communicating. She sent photos everyday. Our cats seemed much happier and relaxed when we got home versus the stress they experienced at a kennel in the past I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again”

“Harper didn't warm up to her, but that's because of him not Ashton. He's only ever warned up to one other person. She was very respectful of his space and comfort level and sent pics from every visit. Highly recommend and will definitely use her services again.”

“Amelia was a wonderful pet sitter. I looked forward to seeing the daily pictures from the Rover reports. She responds in a timely manner and is very nice. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”

About: Hi, I’m Taya! I’ve had dogs my entire life and have always had a deep passion for animals. My goal is to make sure every pet in my care enjoys the highest quality of life. My husband, Matt, and I currently have five dogs and a cat of our own, so our home is always full of love and wagging tails! I have years of experience dog sitting a wide variety of breeds and ages, and I treat every dog like they’re part of the family. I’m always happy to send photo updates during your pet’s stay, so you can see just how much fun they’re having. You can rest easy knowing they’re in great hands while you’re away! I’m available every day of the week to care for your pet! While I do work full-time remotely, I’m able to give your dog plenty of attention and let them out for play and potty breaks several times throughout the day. I’m always just a message away if you have any questions or concerns during your pet’s stay, and I’ll respond as quickly as possible. We have just under an acre of land with a fully fenced-in yard for your dog to run and play! Our fencing is a combination of 4 foot and 6 foot welded wire. We’ve had no issues with our own dogs, however, if you’re concerned about your dog possibly jumping or climbing, we also have 100 foot long leashes available so they can still safely enjoy the yard. Please let me know if this is a concern for your pup - we’re happy to accommodate! In order to keep all our pets healthy, we ask that your dogs please be up to date on their vaccinations prior to their stay. Our five dogs have a variety of personalities and temperaments, so we use our discretion to determine which of them, if any, will interact with your dog. This decision is based on factors like age, gender, size, and play style. For this reason, your dog will typically only interact with one or two of our dogs, and all interactions are closely supervised to ensure everyone’s safety. If you’d prefer your dog not interact with our personal dogs at all, that’s absolutely okay too! Just let me know ahead of time so I can plan accordingly. At night, dogs are usually crated for bedtime. If there’s ever a time where I need to leave the house during your dog’s stay, they will be safely crated and I’ll have a camera set up so I can check on them regularly. Every stay includes plenty of playtime, exercise, and snuggles to ensure your pet returns home happy, healthy, and fully loved! Please feel free to message me with any questions at any time! 😊

“I wasn’t sure about having someone in my home with Mama Cat. She is normally pretty skiddish around new people. However, Teresa was amazing. She came the day before to meet Mama and me and she sent photos everyday! I was shocked by how Mama seemed right at home and she seemed happy and well taken care of when I returned. Thank you Teresa for taking care of my happy cat!”

About: I have had dogs and cats for half my life. I have also worked at a pet supply store for 4 years, around a bunch of different dogs and animals. I trim nails and can bathe dogs. I am also okay with feeding reptiles, including snakes, as I have had a ball python for 5 years and other reptiles in the past. I am currently a part time employee at a grocery store. I am looking to add more animal time and experience to my days. I am typically available after 12pm. I currently live in an apartment that has a dog park across the street that i take my dog to. I also have a client who I drop in and feed her cats dry and wet food, play with them and clean up. I do occasional nail trims for her cats as well.

“Ashley was kind in looking after my shy cat. Would be happy to use her services again.”

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and I have been an animal lover since I was born. When I was in high school I would pet sit for many family’s while they were on vacation. I have been working in the veterinary field for 7 years. I am very comfortable with giving any medications your fur baby needs and can properly care for older pets. I have two German Shepards that are very friendly and love to play! We can’t wait to meet you and your fur baby. I am a stay at home mom for 2 little kids. We have plenty of time to go on walks and play with your dog. I have a big back yard that is not fenced In and two very nice dogs for your fur baby to play with. We also have trails in the woods for us to go on plenty of fun walks during the day. I have 4 creates for different size dogs if your pet needs to be created.

About: Dogs and cats and lizards, oh my! I’ve done it all. For the first 18 years of my life I’ve had experience walking dogs, house sitting, and raising my own pets. Then I began working at a summer camp where I was partially responsible for taking care of our reptile family - crested geckos, bearded dragons, and ball pythons and were just some of the cuties I got to take care of. Since then I have taken care and owned cats, dogs, and lizards of my own and on the side have house sat and loved many family and friends pets while they’re gone. I even have experience with some medical administration such as insulin shots to a feisty cat and pills to the dog I currently own. I can’t wait to get acquainted with your family member :) My schedule is very flexible and I can accommodate most any time a pet needs taken care of, including during the work day and weekends. I have three dogs, one cat and a crested gecko currently who are all very loved and spoiled by myself, my husband and our almost two year old. We’ve taught all the dogs recall, leash training and how to be gentle around young children. Our cat is an old man with feline herpes, one of our dogs needs daily oral medication and the juvenile gecko gets extra attention as he continues growing.

“Larissa was great! sent pictures and updates everyday and followed instructions perfectly! If i need a cat sitter again i’ll definitely re-book!”

About: I love animals! I will play with them, feed and water them, and take them for walks. I love to train animals like to sit and shake. I can give baths to them and wash them and I can also get rid of fleas for them. I'm available Tuesday-Thursday anytime unless I have an appointment. I only have a dog and a cat and they're both spayed and neutered, my dog is very playful and has been great around other dogs and my cat likes to sleep a lot so she won't be any bother to your animals. My animals are playful so if yours are, they would love to play. Your animals will have an amazing time with me and will be well watched! I currently work Friday-Monday 2pm-10pm. I love animals and walking them also puts some exercise in my routine when I just sit in at a desk all day lol I care for your pet just as much as I care for mine! I have an amazing cat named Nova. I make sure she, of course, has food,water, and litter. I play around with her all the time and I smother her with kisses every day. Every time I go to a house with pets, we both just instantly like each other and I play with them! I also have an Australian Shepherd named Ellie and she loves to play outside and go for walks

About: I work from home and would love to hangout with your pets! I’ve always had pets in the home from cats to birds to dogs. Right now I have a ten year old cat who is in remission from diabetes so I’m trained in injections and medications. My dogs back in Texas are pit bulls so I’m used to large lovable doggies :) I work from home so pets don’t go unattended and always have someone to hangout with. I am free most weekends and my significant other is also home to help out with high energy pups. :) I have walking trails around my apartment and wooded areas out back. My partner and I love to go on walks when weather permitting and would love to take your furry friend with us.

About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, bunnies, horses, fish, chickens, and ducks. I have taken a veterinary science class in high school and I plan to become a veterinarian in the future. Currently, I do not have a job, so I am able to play with your pets all day on the days I’m available. I will be heading off to college at the end of August this year, but will be back during breaks. I will care for your pets kindly, but firmly if need be. If you have a high energy pup, I will do my very best to keep up the energy to play with it. I will make sure your pet does not get into trouble.

“Jenah was so great! She sent pictures and updates for our drop-in visit. Will definitely have her come visit our pups again! 🐶”

About: I had taken care of dogs of every kind since I was very young. I have relied on me to walked, feed and bathe their pets. I had also trained 2 dogs with some of the sign language as well to teach the animals to sit and stay with the sign language. My friends and family have relied on me to take their dogs to the dog park, the beach and go on the morning hike. Just really take care of their animals with the love, respect and support for those need my help for them to enjoy their time or a getaway! I'm currently working from home on my own flexible schedule! I do have a lot of time in between working virtually and I can do my job anywhere! So if I take the dogs to the park or go on a walk, I could work on my phone to reply my emails, messages etc. I do have the good balance of taking a break from work to spend the time with the animals to give them my attention and cuddles and go on a walks or adventures! First thing first is to care the animals with respect, love and comfort to be in my home or in your home. At my house: I do have a fully fenced back yard and front yard with my two lovely dogs that will give your animals peace of mind and protection. In my house are full of cozy energy, your animal will love this place to run around and enjoying every moment to be here. I have a few bowls of water around my house, they will be hydrated while your animals are here. I don't share human food to the animals. They will always be fed with their own dog/cat food. It is the open space in my house so the animals will be seen in my full view at all times. They will be protected while they're here. I do have a doggie hole as well! The dogs can go outside at anytime with the backyard wood fenced around. If your cats aren't outdoors, that's okay because I do leave a baby gate to block the doggie door hole so the animals doesn't get out and I will take the dogs outside to my front yard that are fenced as well. At night time, I do put all of my cats in my bedroom with me while the door are shut so the dogs can go outside on their own while I am asleep until the morning time, I would block the doggie door with the baby gate and let the cats out my room. If your cat isn't outdoor cat then he/she//they can be with me in my bedroom with all of my cats or they can sleep with my little sister in another cozy room with the cat litter & food/water/toys. I love to have the transparency communication with the owners as well! Lots of pictures will be shared to the owners as well! The owner with the animal will need to meet me and my animals just to be sure to see how they interact and to see how you feel about your animals for being in my lovely home. If I was at your house, I am that person that will follow your wishes and expectations of how you would want me to care for your animals. I do clean up after myself when I am at your house and to keep it tidy clean as you like it to be. I also like to step outside with the dogs/cats to keep my eyes on them or even just being outside with them and play with their toys to give them my joyful attention. I love to have the transparency communication with the owners as well. I will always ask the owner before assuming or trying things out. I love to meet the animals before starting the whole process to feel it out how the energy goes for us and for your animals too. If it flows great with you, I and your animals then there will be lots of pictures will be shared to you as well!

About: I grew up around pets. I am very active & can be energetic with your pet. I can play & run (if needed). I love to be around and to spend time with animals. I am very aware of how to take care of an animal. I can spend a good bit of time taking care of them as long as it fits into my schedule! I am flexible with my visits and can come multiple times a day if my schedule doesn’t conflict that day. I work full time, but I have flexibility with having to be in the office so I am able to work with most pet schedules. I also don’t work on the weekends and am usually in town. I can play with pets for hours or just be there to make sure they’re taken care of if they’re more of a shy and/or lazy breed.
