Cat Sitting in East Leavenworth

“Megean and her husband loved and took great care of both our cats! We looked forward to the twice daily updates and photos they provided. Our “shy”/not-always-friendly cat Charlie warmed up to them instantly= they are great with cats!!”

“Marlee and Apollo became fast friends. You can tell he is elated when she comes over to check on him. She makes sure he's a happy and well-cared-for puppy. I highly recommend Marlee!”

“I am so grateful for the wonderful care Chandler  gave my two very shy and finicky cats while I was away for the week. It takes a special kind of patience and kindness to win over cats like mine.  Knowing he came by twice a day to feed them, water them, and keep everything clean gave me such peace of mind. I was truly relaxed knowing they were in such caring hands. Thank you again for going above and beyond for my furry family members! I’ll definitely be asking for you again when I go out of town!”

“Joni went above and beyond to take care of our dog for an extended period of time. We felt comfortable being away from home when we knew that she had everything covered at our house!”

About: I bring 13 years of hands-on pet care experience and a lifelong passion for animal welfare. I’ve cared for a wide range of animals including dogs, cats, exotic pets, and farm animals, and I’m confident handling pets with varying temperaments, ages, and medical needs. My professional background includes working at a Pet Hotel and Resort, where I supervised playgroups and provided overnight care for both dogs and cats. I’ve also completed one year of Vet Tech training, giving me a strong foundation in animal health, behavior, and medication administration. I’ve volunteered for years with organizations such as NoCo Humane Society and Animal Friends Alliance, where I worked as a walker, enrichment volunteer, and trainer. I frequently took dogs on structured day trips to support confidence-building and behavioral enrichment. Additionally, I served as a long-term medical foster for Pima Animal Care Center, caring for pets with ongoing medical or special needs. Beyond shelters, I’ve been a horse handler through TRAK, a therapeutic ranch for children with disabilities, where I also helped care for other farm animals. I’ve consistently managed pet sitting for multiple households at once, safely and reliably caring for several dogs and cats at the same time over many years. My own dogs have been certified and/or are currently training for Canine Good Citizen (CGC), therapy, trick, and agility certifications, reflecting my commitment to positive, structured training and enrichment. I pride myself on providing reliable, compassionate, and knowledgeable care, treating every pet as if they were my own while ensuring owners feel confident and at ease eith frequent daily updates. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I’m currently a graduate student at the Colorado School of Mines completing my coursework online, and I’m based in Fort Collins. This gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to plan my day around pet care needs. At home, I have a young dog and a very young puppy, so I’m already on a structured routine that includes regular feeding 3 times a day, potty breaks, training, and enrichment. Because of this, I’m reliably home at least 3 time periods a day and all night. I’m available for pet care up to three times per day for sessions lasting up to four hours each, which works well for walks, drop-ins, playtime, training reinforcement, and meals or medications times. I’m dependable, punctual, and attentive to maintaining each pet’s normal routine. Safety and trust are my top priorities in every home I care for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my client’s home or my own, I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any medical or behavioral needs before care begins. I have extensive experience with young puppies, including potty training, crate training, supervision, and enforcing safe boundaries. I’m especially vigilant with pets who are known to swallow foreign objects, and I practice constant supervision, environmental checks, and proactive management to prevent accidents as I have had 2 dogs with issues eating non-edible objects. I’m also very comfortable caring for dogs recovering from surgery or illness. With my vet tech training and medical foster experience, I can confidently administer medications, monitor incision sites, restrict activity as needed, and watch closely for any signs of discomfort or complications. I follow all veterinary and owner instructions carefully and provide detailed daily updates. In clients’ homes, I respect the space as if it were my own maintaining cleanliness, following household rules, and ensuring pets feel secure and relaxed in their familiar environment. In my own home, I prioritize controlled introductions, safe separation when needed, and structured routines to ensure every pet’s safety and comfort. I use positive reinforcement, clear communication, and attentive supervision to build trust with both pets and owners, providing calm, reliable, and knowledgeable care at all times.

“Angela was wonderful. She posted pictures of our pups and kitty cats regularly for us while we were on vacation . We highly recommend her for your pets while you are away.”

About: Hello pet parents my name is Octavia (i prefer to go by my middle name)! I HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH MORE THAN JUST DOGS AND CATS SUCH AS CHICKENS AND DUCKS !! I am military and I am able to access base when needed. I am 21 years old and I LOVE animals!! Due to my Army career I live in a loft with my wife, my dog. Taking care of animals is my calling! I have now been in the Army for three years. I joined to further pursue my college education and become a veterinarian in the future. I am extremely passionate about the care that animals receive. I have volunteered for lots of shelters since i was young to learn all about animals and their needs, so it is my duty to ensure that your fur baby is well taken care of. Being that i worked with a lot of trained animal handlers, I have experience with animals who have many special needs such as diabetes, aids, cancer, seniors, etc. I also have experience with many different ages and breeds of dogs/cats. I previously worked at a groomers and volunteered at a pet shelter. At both establishments I fed the animals, bathed them, played with them, and took them out for restroom breaks. | love to stay active so I go on a daily walk/run and I would love for your pet to accompany me. I have plenty of room in my schedule to spend quality time with your pet. This would include going to the park, play time, and even cuddle time! While you are gone from your sweet fur baby, I will be available for communication 80% of the time. I am more than happy to send updates on how your pet is doing upon request. Anything that makes you and your pets comfortable I am more than happy to do. The less stress there is for you and your fur baby the better! I am here for your needs!! I am extremely excited to be pet sitting again as l did this before I joined the military. I work from 9-5 for the time being until my shift changes but am truly excited to be able to rush home and care for your pets. I will always keep you updated on my schedule being that my hours change every 3 months. I have a dog and a kitten right now and I constantly do research on their diet and behavior and their well being to make sure I am giving them the best possible life that they deserve.

About: I’ve taken care of animals for 10 years now! I absolutely LOVE dogs and want anything and everything to do with them!! Not just dogs, but every animal in general. I own 2 dogs and 1 cat, one of the dogs is mine specifically so I like to take him on daily walks, play lots of fetch with him and he loves the park!! (I take my other dog to with us). As for my cat, she doesn’t do much but eat! I feed all the animals morning and night, they also go outside whenever they want to. My family exercises the dogs daily! They are very spoiled.

“I was really nervous to find a pet sitter through Rover, I've never had to leave my dog with a "stranger" before. My dog is also a giant breed, which can intimidate people or make them nervous. Alyssa was great from the very start, my dog loved her right away which put me at ease. She didn't even care about his drool lol Alyssa is great with keeping in communication, providing updates and pictures after each drop-in. I was able to actually relax while being out of town knowing my baby was in good hands. I would recommend her 1000% and will def. book her for any future trips.”

Amber M.

“Amber is Awesome with my dog and my cat. I was recently out of town for almost 2 weeks and came back to find them healthy and happy. Amber will always be my first choice when it comes to drop-in visits for my loved ones. Thank you so much Amber. Sincerely, Justin”

Justin G.

“She was great! She went above and beyond caring for our kitties. She was very flexible and attentive. She is our new go to sitter! We would recommend her to anyone seeking a caring sitter!”

Chandler M.

“Fantastic job, she kept me updated on my cats while I was away. Also when the power went out, she went right over to make sure they were safe and put my mind at ease! Thank you”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 12 and truly enjoy caring for animals of all kinds. Back home, I have two puppies who I absolutely adore, but since moving to Kansas City for school, I miss being around pets every day. That’s why I’d love the chance to care for yours—whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. With years of experience and a genuine love for animals, I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they feel happy and cared for while you’re away. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 12 and have always loved caring for animals. I have two puppies back home that I miss dearly, and since moving to Kansas City for school, I’m excited to spend time with pets here. My program is mainly virtual, with only a few hours of class on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I have plenty of availability to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. With years of experience and lots of love to give, I’ll treat your pets like my own. Safety is always my top priority. In your home, I follow your routines closely, make sure doors and gates are secure, and keep a close eye on your pet at all times. If I’m hosting, I provide a clean and pet-friendly space, remove hazards, and ensure constant supervision. I’m also comfortable handling leashes, crates, and any special instructions you have so your pet stays safe and happy.
