Cat Sitting in Evergreen

About: I have 10 years of experience caring for a variety of pets as well as having a love and passion for animals my whole life! I help neighbors, family, and friends watch their furry friends when they are in need. I love staying active and what better way than spending time with animals! I am currently on summer break so I have tons of free time throughout the week and weekends! I’m more than happy to be on call and available for walks, hikes, at home sitting, or anything else to help with your furry friends! I had two dogs myself and experience with all types of breeds! I actively care for my neighbors dog and cats whenever they are away on vacation throughout the year. I am reliable, attentive and compassionate about animals.

About: What sets me apart is my strong focus on safety, consistency, and personalized care. I don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach—every pet has different needs, and I make sure to follow their routine closely so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I’m very attentive to behavior and can quickly spot changes that might indicate discomfort or illness. I also have experience working with puppies and senior pets. With puppies, I reinforce basic training like potty routines, leash manners, and positive behavior. With senior pets, I’m patient and gentle, making sure they’re comfortable, keeping up with medications if needed, and adjusting activity levels to suit them. Communication is another area where I stand out—I provide regular updates, photos, and detailed check-ins so owners always know their pet is safe and well cared for. Overall, I aim to give pets a calm, structured, and safe environment while giving owners complete peace of mind. Pet care is a consistent and important part of my daily and weekly routine. Each day, I schedule time for feeding, fresh water, exercise, and one-on-one attention to make sure pets are comfortable and well cared for. I plan my day around their needs, including walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions like medications or training. Consistency, communication, and attention to detail. I track feeding, bathroom habits, and any unusual behavior. I make sure pets get enough interaction and mental stimulation. Lots and lots of love and attention. Safety is always my main priority as well. I provide daily updates of pet/care with video/photos.

About: It’s great to provide dog and cat sitting with people who have trust in me! I reciprocate on the pets’ energies, from docile to energetic. I have two dogs of my own that receive a lot of attention and care. I currently have summer availability to provide all-day attentive care, meaning that I can offer specific medical care if needed, frequent walks or dog park visits, and lots of cuddles! Based on your needs, I do well with following the consistent routines, as well as offering daily photo and written updates for assurance of the pet’s well-being.

“Catherine took such good care of our two bunnies while we were on vacation! This was my first time using Rover, and she helped make the process super easy. She was so patient and kind (even when the bunnies made a big mess!) She also provided thorough updates, lots of photos, and sweet notes that we really appreciated. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! Thank you so much Catherine!”

“Our cats were in such good hands with Olivia! This was the first time we used a cat sitter, so we were naturally a little nervous, but she immediately put us at ease. She was incredibly gentle and patient, and really understood how to care for both our shy cat and our energetic kitten. We appreciated the updates with lots of pictures from each visit and the care she showed them while we were away. We would absolutely trust Olivia to take care of our cats again in the future and highly recommend her!”

“Super friendly and nice. She took care of our cat, gave him pets and played with him while we were away. I will definitely book her again when we need a cat sitter :)”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs & cats of all shapes and sizes since I was 10 years old. Over the years, friends and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and look after their beloved pets because they know I treat every animal like family. I'm a current college student, so days I do not have classes or work I am free! I can do things from walks to house sitting- as I can do my assignments online. I have a routine I stick to with my pets, so you can trust I will stick to yours word-by-word! I have 3 rescue animals, one cats and 2 dogs. One of my dogs was a rescued lab beagle, and I know exactly how to work around his quirks! My other dog is deaf- so I do have experience waking him up gently!

About: For most of my High School education I had watched The Dog Whisperer religiously, which helped to ingrain my love for animals especially towards canines. I slowly began to pursue fields in which I could help surround myself with animals and careers pertaining to animals. I started after high school and became a volunteer at the San Jose Animal Care Services located on Monterey Rd. in San José. I was working on the side while going to school as I volunteered to help compensate the volunteer hours. As a designated dog walker I was introduced to small toy dogs down to 4 pounds up to larger breeds ranging upwards of 100 pounds. I am located in a single-family residence in a suburban enclave in Evergreen. We have a fenced backyard with lots of space to stretch out and enjoy the outdoors. The local elementary school is a 5-minute walk away, featuring its own walking trail and a fenced grass area. Animal care is my second nature. I can understand body signs and cues when it comes to how an animal is feeling and the best way to approach them. I've held up against big dogs all the way down to the little ones. Each animal is unique. The most important thing is love and respect.

“Thank you so much Chloe for taking such good care of the kitties! I loved getting your photos while away - seeing the kitties having a great time with you really eased any concerns I had about being away”

“Kaylee was super kind and communicative when dropping in to take care of my two cats. I had to reschedule last minute due to complications with my original caretaker, and Kaylee was super responsive and willing to help! She really saved us last minute. Also, one of my cats is very scared of new people, however he seemed to be very comfortable with Kaylee! I would use her again in a heartbeat.”

About: I’ve been the go-to pet person in my circle for years! Friends, family, and neighbors call me when they need someone reliable, patient, and genuinely excited to hang out with their pets. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, overnights, or keeping up with detailed routines, I take pride in making pets feel safe, loved, and completely at ease while you’re away. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of attention and emotional awareness I bring. As an empath, I don’t just “watch” pets, I learn their personalities. Are they high-energy zoomie champions? Velcro dogs? Secret snack negotiators? I adjust my care style to fit *them* so they stay happy and stress-free. I have experience with puppies who need structure, consistency, and patience (potty training, leash manners, crate routines), as well as senior dogs who deserve a slower pace, gentle handling, and medication support. I’m also very comfortable with anxious or shy pets and use calm, positive approaches to build trust at their speed. My goal is simple: happy pets, lots of tail wags, and owners who can relax knowing their furry family member is in caring, capable hands. Plus, you’ll always get photo updates because I know being away is the hardest part :) My schedule is thoughtfully balanced between two of my personal businesses—pet care and swim instruction. I’m a professional swim instructor during parts of the day, which means I may be in the water or teaching lessons for a few hours at a time, depending on the day of the week. Because of this, I build my pet care schedule very intentionally to make sure every animal in my care gets consistent attention, exercise, and quality time. Pet care isn’t just something I “fit in”—it’s a core part of my work and something I genuinely care about. Balancing both businesses allows me to stay active, responsible, and fully present in the care I provide. My care style really comes down to one thing: keeping pets happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine, just with me stepping in as their temporary human. In a client’s home, I treat your space with the same respect I’d want for my own. I stick closely to feeding schedules, walk times, medications, play routines, and any “house rules” your pet knows (or thinks they can bend). I keep things clean, calm, and secure so your pet feels safe in their familiar environment. If pets are staying in my home, they get a cozy, supervised environment with lots of attention, exercise, and downtime based on their energy level. I make sure introductions, rest spaces, and routines are handled thoughtfully so everyone feels comfortable. I'll most likely end up snuggling your pet too! :)

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was young and have cared for many different personalities over the years. I regularly help the family I used to live with by watching their dog whenever they travel, which shows the trust people place in me. Dogs tend to feel comfortable with me quickly, and I focus on gentle handling, consistent routines, and making sure every pup feels safe, relaxed, and loved while their owners are away. I work 6-8am and 3-7pm so I will home the most of the other time, and my husband get off after 5, there will be people in the house the most of the time! We only offer boarding for cats. Our home has cat trees, cozy resting areas, and a Litter-Robot for a clean, low-stress environment. Cats are free to roam the house as long as they get along with our own cats. I always supervise introductions and make sure every cat has safe spaces to relax or hide if needed. Also if your cat feel like staying alone, we have a separate room set up ready as well. I’ve included photos of part of our home so you can see the environment your cat will stay in. For dogs, I do not offer boarding. I provide drop-in visits or stay at the owner’s home, where dogs are most comfortable and able to follow their normal routines.

“Aivy was super flexible, communicative and my cats loved her. Highly recommend her services. She’s also very funny :-)”

“Nikisha is great! We booked a bit last minute and she was able to accommodate us. She came for a meet & greet which we really appreciated. She was thorough and took care of everything we had discussed. She also sent notes and photos which were much appreciated as well. We’ll definitely book with Nikisha again!”

“Professional, top notch. Brandie jumped in at the last minute. She checked in regularly, and even provided photos. We didn’t worry at all about our diabetic, blind, deaf Senior Citizen - Brandie wasn’t at all fazed by the insulin injection schedule! (What a relief.)”
