Cat Sitting in Fithian

“Did a wonderful job with our kitties!”

Marian K.

About: I have worked multiple jobs revolving around animals, including vet clinics, so I have experience handling many pets. I have watched more difficult pets, and I’ll do anything to ensure your fur baby is as comfortable and happy as possible in my care. I recently graduated from the University of Illinois and currently work remotely, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to walking and sitting your pets! I am very cautious about animal interactions and will always put your pets safety first. Having a large dog, I’ve learned to keep my head on a swivel on walks and have mastered watching body language and redirection around any uncomfortable situations that may arise. I treat everyone’s pet like my own and make sure they get all the play time, snuggles, and walks they want!

“This is the second time we have had Misty cat sit for us while we’re away for vacation. She has been so amazing and loving to our Kitty. Definitely recommend her for your pet sitting needs!!”

“Serina was very attentive & kind to Greigh. She made sure to send me updates and asked questions if she had any! She even filled up my cats food bowl which wasn’t her original responsibility! Overall I am super satisfied with the way she cared for my pup this trip & would book again!”

“I truly appreciated Katie to take care of my kitties when I was away. She loves my cats and my cats love her. They get along well at greet- meet section to understand my cats' habbits. I highly recommend Katie for taking care of your lovely pets when you are away. Thank you so much, Katie. Thank for the kitties' portraits in my kitchen. You are gifted and talented with arts and caring pets. Wish you all the best.”

About: As an emerging professional, I found it to be wise to not get an animal of my own quite yet, but through this opportunity I can still be around and interact with your loving animal(s). I have interacted with an array of dogs, and currently my family has had 3 dogs. Brandy, a golden retriever who loved being outside and swimming, Jack (who is in my profile picture) a cocker spaniel who loved a good nap, and our other dog Ziggy, a long haired dachshund who has calmed down over the years but loves to great people with his loud bark. I have experience working with older dogs who require medication, so if your pup/cat needs that attention, I’ve got you covered. I like to think I’m an active person, so walks will be had as well. I also love giving animals baths, so if you are interested that can be included in my services! Thank you for your consideration! I currently have a full time job, but would have mornings, lunch, and after 5pm available to love on your pet. I make it a priority to make sure they keep their schedule and have an ample amount of attention. I think keeping pets in their homes is especially important when their parents are away, so that’s why I am more than happy to come to them. Just like humans, I want to make sure they feel loved and cared for even when you are not there. I love to cuddle and play with all the pets I watch as well so they will not be missing out on attention (haha)!

“Myk'La is really nice and did a great job caring for my cat, including feeding, petting, giving meds, and litterbox cleaning. I definitely recommend her and will use her again if she is available to watch my pets.”

“Esther made using Rover for the first time incredibly easy. She was able to come by my house to take care of my cat, while I was out of town. Esther sent pictures and was easy to contact throughout the entire process. I definitely plan to contact her in the future and recommend that you do, as well!”

About: I've been raised with all kinds of dogs since I was young, from Pomeranian to Rhodesian Ridgebacks. I'm familiar with puppy behaviors, as well as care for elderly dogs. My days off are Monday & Tuesdays to give me plenty of time to care and play with your pets in the early mornings to overnights. Otherwise I currently work in the community Thurs-Sun 8am-5pm with Wednesdays being 12-5, though I'm able to step away for any walks, drop-ins, or play times needed! Please reach out with any scheduling requests and I'll do my best to accommodate for you! I prefer crate trained pets, much like my own, but I'm comfortable being around free roam and cuddly buddies! If given enough time in advance, I would love to meet your pet beforehand to ensure a comfortable and informative visit for the both of us.

“Zohreh really went above and beyond with caring for my cat, and was very attentive to her needs. She was great with communication and shared plenty of pictures each visit which I always appreciate.”

About: I’ve worked as a veterinary nurse for 10 years and have worked with every size, age and energy level of dog and cat. I’m well versed in walking, bathing, potty training, and mind enrichment exercises, as well as multiple behavioral and medical conditions. I love caring for animals and have 2 cats and a dog, Siberian Husky, who needs a lot of activity and are spoiled daily. I know how to give medication, if needed, and how to deal with emergency situations. I can send pictures and videos daily to keep you updated. Your beloved furry family members will be well taken care of! I am available most days for the summer and can do morning, afternoon, and evening care. You can message me for further questions about scheduling. Let me know your pets daily routine they are used to, so I can stick as closely as possible to it to help them keep as much normalcy to their days as possible.

“Milo is the best! There is no one our dogs love more!”

“Jennifer helped me with my kitty that needed special care with meds and injections. She put my mind at ease and also gave me some recommendations for him from her experience. It helped me feel ok about leaving my guy for a couple days even though he as some health issues.”

“Kate was awesome. And Raven (the Diva) really liked her too. The jury is still out with Dobby, lol. I will definitely be hiring her again! ?”

About: Taking care of dogs and other pets for my entire life has left me with valuable, practical skills. My family has relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe pets. I currently live with the sweetest cat ever, Luna. I am very flexible and open with my availability! Weekends and weekdays are completely open and my other work can be planned around taking care of your pet! I care for pets with immense compassion and look to take of each pets with their individual needs. Each dog and cat has a unique personality and needs that need attended to.

About: I’ve always had some species of animal since I was a child. I’ve cared for them, bathed, walked, fed, taken vet trips, went on road trips with them. You name it, I’ve probably done it! My favorite people are animals! My fur babies are just that: my babies. They look to me for love and care and guidance. I try my best to ensure they live their best lives with as much love and happiness as possible. I have a fenced in yard but I would rather do drop ins as I have physical disabilities that would hinder playing with my fur babies as well as yours. I only want what’s best for your furry children!

“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Alexandria to take care of our cat, Midnight, for a week while we were out of town. Alexandria stayed at our house to keep Midnight company and to take care of feeding, litter box cleaning and quality play time. She kept me updated with frequent photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. Midnight seemed comfortable and happy around Alexandria from day one. She also took care of various household chores such as garbage collection and bringing in mail and packages. After getting home, not only was Midnight in top shape, but also the house! I highly recommend Alexandria to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy petsitter, and I will definitely be booking her again in the future.”

She did a great just keeping me updated throughout as well. I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her for future needs. :)”

About: I am comfortable with taking care of bigger and smaller dogs whether hyper or not. I love dogs and cats, so I am excited to watch them! Overall, I am really loving and excited to walk,play and take care of any animals that come my way in the same way I treat my own. My availability is flexible and open for the fall and winter months, so any time will do. I am ready for most booked services same day when in the urbana-champaign area. I grew up with a wide variety of dogs from pitbulls to yorkies to now raising 4 australian shepards. Each one has had their own unique care, and I would like to treat your animals as special as ive treated mine!

“We had Amy come for dropin visits with our dog Lucy and 11 chickenss while we were out of town parts of 4 days. Amy took the time to get to know Lucy and show her real attention and affection. She arrived on time for every visit and kept us updated what was happening with messages and photos. She paid attention to details of the house and let us know what was going on. She took care of the animals physical needs responsibly but also with genuine interest and kindness.”
