Cat Sitting in Falls City

About: I have cared for a wide array of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, reptiles, insects and amphibians! I have owned many pets over my lifetime, and feel confident in caring for elderly animals and administering medication. I have volunteered at my local vet clinic on multiple occasions, so handling animals prone to stress is also something that I am familiar with Currently I attend community college part time on Mondays, Wednesdays and the weekend. Every other day I will be completely free, and will make it my priority to give your pets all of the time and attention that they deserve! One of my greatest goals, second only to the welfare of your animals, is to ensure that client privacy and boundaries are respected at all times. I will ensure to follow instructions given about the home to the letter.

“I don’t think my dog wants to come home. She’s been spoiled and loved all day. I guess I won’t feel so bad for leaving her from now on. 😅. Zuri was kind, prompt, asked good questions, sent lots of pictures, and loved our girl so well. Could not recommend her any higher.”

About: I started taking care of animals when I was really young I think around 6 years old I would take care of my neighbor's dog was a little Pomeranian when they would go places. Also my neighbor had a Irish setter that I would go visit all the time and she would give me a dollar to walk her around the block or talking at least 48 years ago and I still remember it to this day it was one of the best times in my life when I was young. I think I've decided that I want to dedicate my life to this I mean what's left of it anyway lol I've been working with people most of my life and I thought I'd give this a try so daily routine and weekly routine would be up to the customer and it would be your preference after all you're the boss right? I've been a caregiver since 1998 of people I had five background checks last year for the state of Oregon I work for Oregon health Care commission and I'm a caregiver I passed five of them so you would not have to worry about me being in your home I would offer the services that you were requesting and you would also go beyond even more than what you would expect I think I would be a good fit with for anybody I'm an older lady and I've got a lot of grandchildren so I figured taking care of your for a babies and I would treat them like my grandbabies or you would say fur babies. Customer would be my boss so therefore I would do what they would ask.

“I was gone for a couple weeks and Leanna took great care of my cat Feeny. She was responsive and kind via chat. I would hire Leanna in a heartbeat.”

About: Caring for animals comes naturally to me—I have a soft spot for every paw, whisker, curly tail and tiny personality. I’m patient, attentive, and deeply committed to making pets feel safe and understood. I know how important it is to trust someone with your companion, so I treat every pet like they’re my own, giving them comfort, consistency, and lots of love. My goal is simple: happy pets and peace of mind for you. I have owned pets my whole childhood and still raise two of my own. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home for most of the day, which allows me to give pets lots of attention, supervision, and consistent care. My daily routine is very pet-friendly, with plenty of time for walks, play, feeding schedules, and check-ins throughout the day. I have one child in elementary school and a younger child at home with me, so our days are structured but flexible. This means pets are rarely left alone and can be part of a calm, family-oriented environment. I’m mindful of each pet’s needs and routine, and I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and included throughout the day. I understand the level of trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. Every animal has their own comfort level, so I approach each one with patience, attentiveness, and respect for their boundaries. I focus on creating a safe, low-stress environment where they can feel secure and at ease. I’ll provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for. I also like to keep pets mentally engaged with simple games, basic training reinforcement (if you’re working on anything), and sticking to their normal routine so they feel secure. Of course, I’ll always follow your instructions and your pet’s needs—whether that’s high-energy fun or a cozy, low-key day at home. I’ll also send updates and photos so you can see all the fun we’re having.

About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and small animals for over 5 years and have hands-on experience with large breeds, working dogs, reactive dogs, and high-energy personalities. I currently own German Shepherds as well as two chinchillas, so I understand the importance of species-specific care, structure, enrichment, and maintaining a safe environment. I’m comfortable with crate routines, medication administration, basic training reinforcement, long walks, litter box care, feeding routines, and reading animal body language. My professional background in high-stress environments has also made me calm, dependable, detail-oriented, and communicative. I know how important trust is when leaving your pets with someone else, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. I currently work full-time during the week, but I’m still able to provide dependable drop-in care and quality engagement for pets. I’m available for evening drop-in visits during the weekdays and can provide up to two visits per day on weekends. During visits, I focus on more than just feeding and potty breaks — I make sure pets receive attention, enrichment, playtime, affection, and companionship so they feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I’m especially attentive to routines, behavioral cues, and making animals feel safe and relaxed in their home environment. Safety, structure, and trust are extremely important to me when caring for animals. I have experience with large breeds, reactive dogs, cats, and small animals, so I understand the importance of reading body language, respecting boundaries, and maintaining calm, controlled interactions. I follow all owner instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medication routines, crate rotations, leash handling, and household rules. I prioritize secure handling during walks and visits, double-check doors, gates, harnesses, and crates, and always aim to create a calm and positive environment for pets. I also believe communication is important, so I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins to help owners feel comfortable while they’re away.

“We highly recommend Kristin. She has watched our dogs (4, and they can be a bit of a handful) several times now and we've been happy each time.”

About: I have been watching animals for 10 years! I have watched a variety of animals including dogs, cats, birds, and fish! I have watched animals for as little as a few days or as long as a few months! My responsibilities include light housekeeping, administrating medications, feeding animals, walking animals, and ensuring the safety and well-being of the animals! My responsibilities vary based on the owners wants and needs as well as the animals wants and needs. It’s important to recognize all animals are different and my responsibilities vary based on the animal I am working with. I also was a kennel assistant for a few months where I learned many valuable skills such as bathing, proper sanitation procedures, running front desk, answering phone calls, and boarding animals while owners were out of town. In high-school I was in a Pre. Vet program for 2 years where I learned how to trim nails, groom animals, and safely work with animals of all different breeds and sizes. During this time, I achieved student of the month 8 executive times. All of these experiences have helped me learn how to work with and care for different animals with different needs. I am able to work with a variety of different animals becuase of my past pet care experiences. There well-being and safety is my top priority and they will be well cared for and treated like they are my own! Currently, I have a very flexible schedule! I am in the process of attending online college classes getting my Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Studies. These classes make it so I can choose my own hours making it easy for me to work! I am available whenever needed, and your animal will always be my top priority 🐾 In my client’s home, I follow the specific directions they want me to follow in order to keep the animals happy and safe! I make sure to send updates and pictures of the animals I’m watching and I treat them as if they are my own. The animals safety is always my top priority! I check in with the owners if something is unclear or if I have a question regarding their care. I also make sure the animal is always in a safe environment! I constantly am checking to make sure the area is secured for the animals I watch and I look to make sure nothing can hurt them. Depending on the service and requests, I also do frequent check-ins with the animal and stay at the house if that is preferred so the pet can get the best care possible! I always follow up if I have questions or concerns and in case of an emergency, I would take them to the nearest clinic and update the owner as much as I could. I am animal CPR trained as well!

About: Since I was born I have had dogs in my family and friends, I've grown up with all size of dog and age of dog. I took care of my puppy and taught her how to potty on a potty pad if needed and I took care of a senior dog that couldn't walk far before being tired. I work the weekends in the health care world but love animals on the side! I don't have any dogs of my own due to my family dog which was mine has separation anxiety and I couldn't move her from my childhood home to a different state. The days i have nothing planned on are Sunday,Monday,Tuesday, and half of wednesday. Well it always will depend on the situation and dog! I always treat pets in my home like my own! I myself wouldn't want someone to not take care of my dog any different than they take care of their own.

About: What sets me apart is that I treat pets like family, not just a checklist. I pay close attention to their routines, personalities, comfort levels, and little quirks, whether that means giving a shy cat space, keeping a playful pet engaged, or sending updates so you feel reassured while you’re gone. While most of my experience is with cats, I’m also open to caring for dogs and have watched dogs in the past. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely care about making your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home. Pet sitting is my full-time work, so my days really are built around caring for animals and showing up for them consistently. I love that I get to spend my time helping pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their people are away. Since this is my main focus, I’m able to be thoughtful and flexible with each pet’s routine. Some pets want playtime and attention, some need a calm presence and a little patience, and some just want their meals on time and their space respected. I try to meet each pet where they are and keep their day feeling as normal and stress-free as possible. I also have my own cat, Mango, so I know how much the little details matter. I bring that same care into every visit, whether I’m checking in on cats, caring for dogs, sending updates, or just helping your pets and home feel settled while you’re gone I’m very respectful of both your pet and your home. I make sure doors, gates, windows, food, and supplies are handled carefully, and I pay attention to the little things that help prevent stress or accidents. I also like to send updates and photos so you feel comfortable knowing how your pet is doing while you’re away. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible and help them feel secure in their own space. Whether your pet is social, shy, playful, or more independent, I’ll meet them where they are and give them care that feels patient, gentle, and trustworthy.

“Kassidee did an awesome job taking care of our pups and stoping by to feed them. We would use her again without question.”

About: Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets for nearly two decades. My attention to detail never goes unnoticed and I am confident in my abilities to comfort your pet(s) by making them feel special and safe! I have experience with all kinds of creatures — dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents/ferrets, fish, and waterfowl, at all stages of life. Yes, even your beloved seniors. I’m a parent/caregiver to a child with disabilities and while that does not affect my ability to care for animals, it can limit some of my time due to my child’s day-to-day needs, appointments, etc. I update my calendar accordingly to reflect my availability. With that said, most of our appointments are virtual or in-home and I am a stay at home mom so I still have plenty of time for pet care. I have a large fenced in yard for dogs and I am always nearby supervising. I allow pets on furniture and treat them just like my own when I’m watching pets in my home. Instructions regarding potty breaks, feeding, kennel time, medications, etc., are always followed if given.

“Tealsa was easy to work with and everything went fine:) Look forward to her helping out on our next trip.”

About: I grew up on a farm taking care of dogs, cats, chickens, pigs, horses, and cows. I love all dogs but especially small dogs. My last cat was a rescue who lived to the age of 21. I personally provided iv fluids for the last 2 yrs of her life and am comfortable with meeting the needs of senior animals. I have also raised puppies and love playing with them! Currently I cannot have pets where I live so I watch my moms queensland heeler and play with my sisters German Shepard almost daily. Since my 20 yr old cat passed I have not owned another pet......yet :) I super flexible and can do whatever is needed to meet your needs. It's important to me that you feel confident that your fur baby will be pampered and treated with love and respect.

About: I own a husky mix and have for three years. I regularly bath, brush and walk him. I’m very patient with animals. I enjoy being around dogs because they’re super smart and definitely steal your heart. Dogs are more than a mans best friend, they’re family. As I begin in the dog care world I would like to be full time and help families by providing care for their furry babies. It’s nice to be able to take a vacation or a trip and know that your dog is being well taken care of, allowing you to enjoy time with friends and family. I will frequently send pictures and updates so you can see how everything is going and and feel included. I have self-taught myself how to trim and file dogs nails and how to brush excess fur, to prevent matted and tangled coats. I also enjoy bathing them. I know pet care can add up and be expensive so I’m willing to negotiate rates depending on the distance I have to drive and the number of services your needing. Feel free to ask any questions because I’m here to help you!

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies to seniors who need a little extra patience and support. I know how important routine and consistency are for pets, and I make sure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and cared for when their family is away. I treat every pet like my own, making sure they not only get fed and walked, but also get plenty of playtime, attention, and affection. I’m reliable, patient, and able to adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s sticking to a strict feeding schedule, giving medication, or just providing companionship, I make sure pets feel happy and secure while their people are gone. I’m currently in college working toward my master’s degree in teaching and student teaching Monday–Friday from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Outside of those hours (afternoons, evenings, and weekends), my time is very flexible and dedicated to caring for pets. I make pet care a priority and always ensure that my schedule allows me to give each animal the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I make sure they’re fed and watered on schedule, given plenty of exercise and playtime, and of course, lots of love and attention. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs, whether that’s administering medication, going for an energetic walk, or providing quiet companionship. I also keep the home tidy by cleaning up after pets (food areas, litter boxes, etc.) and sending regular updates so you can feel confident your pets are safe and happy while you’re away
