Cat Sitting Floriston

About: I’ve owned and cared for anywhere from 2-5 dogs and 2 cats at a time my entire life, most of which have been rescues of all ages, sizes, and behaviors. Additionally, I’ve volunteered at the local Humane Society with dogs and cats for around 8 years and have dog and cat watched for family and friends countless times. I’m comfortable with administering oral medication, using feline inhalers, and caring for animals from puppies and kittens to senior dogs. I am generally available every day from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM, but can start earlier or end later as needed. On Mondays I am only available until 3:00 PM. Animals love me and I love them- be it hiking and exploring a lake, throwing sticks in the yard, frolicking in the snow, taking a short stroll, chasing a feather on a stick, or just kicking our feet up for a chill day. I have 3 friendly dogs and 2 cats at my home (one laid back, one spunky 1.5 year old) and a large, unfenced area in the woods where dogs can be leash walked or free roam. There are 4 litter boxes and 2 cat trees throughout the spacious multi-floor house. My own dogs are outside playing the majority of the day with water bowls and a bowl puppy pool outside or cooling down inside.

“Jennifer was fabulous!! She was so easy to work with and took great care of my pup 🩷 I always get nervous leaving town and leaving her, but Jennifer took such amazing care of her that I wasn’t stressed!! Would definitely book again”

About: I helped my mom take care of 4 boxers growing up which we bought as puppies. I love taking care and watching my friend’s pets. I am also an experienced RN just taking a break from nursing. I will treat your pet as family. I am willing to fit your pet care in to my daily routine. Some times I have trouble waking up in the morning but I am motivated to make money right now. I don’t think having pets in my home would be best. My normal job is RN, moved here from PA, taking some time to collect myself in between jobs and find a travel assignment that works for me. I will treat your pet like it is my family. Thank you for your interest and consideration.

“Seamless experience! Elizabeth popped in to take the dog for a walk and afternoon meal.”

About: We’re lifelong animal lovers with over 25 years of combined pet care experience. Between pet sitting, house sitting, volunteering with Res-Que animal rescue, caring for medical cases, training puppies, and raising our own two dogs, we’ll treat your pets like they’re part of our family. We both work for the Washoe County School District in a self-contained special education classroom. During the school year, we work Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. and are available before and after work for pet care. We’re off every weekend, all major school breaks, holidays, and throughout the summer, allowing us to offer flexible scheduling and dedicate plenty of quality time, attention, exercise, and love to every pet in our care. Every pet is unique, so we tailor our care to their individual routine and needs. Whether in our home or yours, we’ll follow your feeding schedule, provide fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications if needed, and plenty of love and attention. We strive to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible to reduce stress and help them feel safe and comfortable. We also provide regular photo updates and communication so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Mickenzie did a great job watching taking care of Socks and Kitt last week. She made sure that they were feed during their usual schedule and cleaned their litter boxes twice a day. She even took photos for each visit. Socks seemed to be very comfortable around her. Kitt is still shy, but that is how she has always been around other people. I would be happy to have her take care of them while I am out of town again.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was young, especially helping with my sister’s and friends pets over the years. I’m very comfortable feeding, walking, playing, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for. I’m patient, reliable, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your animals, and I always make sure they get attention, love, and proper care. I’m available Friday evenings after 6 PM and all day Saturday and Sunday. During those times, I can give your pets my full attention, including walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I follow any specific instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walks, and routines. I’m very attentive and patient, and I treat every pet like my own to make sure they feel secure and happy while you’re away.

About: I have been working with animals my entire adult life, for the last 5 years. I have experience working in veterinary offices, as well as caring for senior and disabled pets in a home setting. I am available any day of the week at most hours. I am happy to go for a long walk or throw the ball for a high energy pet, or do a midday check-in for an elderly or disabled pet who just needs some extra attention. I find working with animals very fulfilling, and I would love to care for your pet! I am an online college student, so my schedule is very open for daytime dog walking and other drop in visits. I am available weekdays on short notice, and weekends with a few days notice. I am confident in reading animal body language and taking cues from pets so that they feel safe. I am happy to do repeated visits as long as I have met the owner once and have been able to communicate about your expectations and needs.

About: Before requesting to book anything with me, please be aware that I’m a stay at home mom, so my son does accompany me on walks and is present in my home for boarding. Because of this, pets in my care do need to be comfortable around young children. Your pet’s safety and comfort is very important to me and I want to make sure it’s a great fit for everyone involved. I will never force an interaction between your pet and my child, and I carefully manage their environment to ensure everyone stays safe and comfortable during visits. I have over a decade of hands on animal care experience, including working in veterinary hospitals, an emergency animal hospital, animal shelters, and even a wildlife sanctuary specializing in wolves and other wild canines. I’m extremely comfortable handling dogs and cats of all personalities. Whether your pet is energetic, anxious, elderly, or simply needs some extra patience and attention, I bring professional animal experience and a genuine love for what I do. I’ll treat your pets with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I am a stay at home mom and other than some other gigs and taking care of my rambunctious 10 month old son, I am fairly free! I have 2 cats at home and they have the most spoiled lives ever! I live in a 2 story smaller home that’s perfect sized for me and my little family. I have a fenced backyard and am walking distance to several parks.

“Jaqueline has been wonderful! We have rebooked her a couple times now and she is always so flexible! My dogs love her! She is always on time and very great at communicating how the dogs are doing during her visits! Plus she somehow always gets the best pictures of them! I definitely recommend her!”

“Kinan regularly checks in with my pup and is always consistent and reliable. Definitely safe to say my dog has a new friend, very relieving to be able to trust Kinan with my guy!”

About: We have taken care of animals all our lives and have a genuine love for each of them. We have experience with it all; new puppies and kittens, as well as older furry friends who may need special treatment and/or administering medication. Between the both of us, we always make it a priority to work with our pups with lots of playtime, exercise, training and socialization daily. We both are self employed and create our own schedules so we are flexible and work together to ensure our pets have an enjoyable & active day. We have a large dog-friendly fenced-in yard as well as amazing trails just outside our backdoor. Our Aussie-Border Collie mix, Penny is super friendly and submissive and gets along with everyone. She is super gentle when needed and can hold her own with larger dogs also. We have a very well socialized cat, Eleanor, who LOVES dogs and visitors.

About: I grew up with 2-3 100+ pound dogs in my home at a time growing up. I'm used to loving and respecting animals the way they are meant to be treated. Also I'm willing to DISCOUNT SERVICE if you pay cash! I currently have a job that makes my travel but when I'm at home I have a lot of time to take pups on their much needed walks. I try to give all animals the same respect I would give to humans. I'm used to dealing with dogs that can get a little overwhelmed in public, so I feel like I'm well versed in ways to help comfort your pup while get their daily exercise!

About: Hi, my name is Natalie! I'm a senior at the University of Nevada-Reno studying computer science and engineering, planning to begin my Masters in electrical engineering next fall. I'm on the track & field and cross country team here, and I do rigorous training for it! Hoping to take a dog or two on my runs! While I didn’t have the oppotunity to grow up with pets in the house, I did have a lot of beloved animals that I looked after while their owners were away. I was a routine dog-walker for a few family friends until they recently moved away. My dad adopted three adorable cats a few years ago, and I’ve gained lots of valuable experience learning about animal behaviors and cat care from them! I live a very active lifestyle, I run about 7 miles per day, and I love hiking in the Sierras. While my dad's cats can’t come with me, I’d love to take a dog (or leash-trained cat) along with me on a run! Hoping to meet your pets soon! Currently, my schedule consists of classes and cross country training in the early morning through early afternoon on weekdays. I have breaks in my schedule, so I’m free for pet loving almost all of the time! When pet-sitting, I’m always attentive of pets and their behaviors. I understand this is not my home, so I make sure to be respectful of house rules and stay clean.

“Rose took great care of our cat while we were away. She sent pictures and videos of our cat during each visit and we could see that our cat was very comfortable with her. I will definitely contact Rose again if we need care for our pets in the future.”
