Cat Sitting in Fordland

About: I have loved animals my whole life. I’ve taken care of friend’s, family’s and my own cats and dogs since I was a kid. I’m gentle and patient with all animals and have years of experience with many different cats and dogs. I work part time with a very flexible schedule and mostly from home so I have plenty of time for overnight stays or to check in on a pet multiple times a day! I have a lot of experience dog and cat sitting in others homes and I am very flexible when it comes to working around you and your pets schedules and your house rules.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for my friends and neighbors for as long as I can remember. I have a huge passion for animals and LOVE loving on them! I’ve taken care of of every kind of little pet-from dogs and cats to lizards and rats. I do have little ones in the house but we have taught them from a young age to be very respectful of animals and their space. We also have two Corgis in our household. Both Corgis are very friendly with other dogs but we understand that some owners may be uncomfortable with having new dogs around their furry friend. With this being said, the corgis are used to following my husband’s schedule who works from home during the night so they can easily be separated from your four-legged friends! As a Stay-At-Home-Mom I am able to offer 24-hour care! We do occasionally like to get out for an activity so do let me know in advanced if around the clock care is needed so we can accommodate! We love to take morning walks and would love for your furry friend to join us! If a walk won’t work-we have a giant fenced-in back yard to run around and play in! I am currently a stay-at-home-mom so most of my day is spent in the home following whatever schedule my boys keep me on:) We would love to incorporate your furry friend into our schedule! I am able to crate your dog (if needed) during the night or when I’m away. If a crate is not needed during the night then your furry friend will be allowed to sleep wherever!

About: I’ve actually been pet sitting for years and have volunteer experience with the ASPCA. I’ve cared for senior and special needs dogs. We love all pets though I’ve even pet sat lizards snakes and cats. My schedule is pretty flexible I work remotely as a contractor for a big company Monday through Friday. Although I’d prefer daytime bookings let me know what you’re needing My dogs eat chicken free food cause our pug is allergic. Mushu’s special care is we wipe his wrinkles & ears daily with a weekly bath. Buddy is a tank who can eat anything but he needs his paws trimmed once a month. Buddy deals with anxiety from being a sheepdog with no sheep so he has lots of toys and an occasional cbd treat.

“Katie took great care of my Sophie and I knew she was well cared for and did not feel abandoned in my absence. That's exactly what we both needed.”

“Breelyn is great! She’s always on time, is quick to communicate and sends multiple photos during her visit. We’ve used her for 3 years and our cat Fifi loves her.”

About: Running a rescue has provided me the unique ability to work with many different types of dogs. It has provided understanding and experince that can put your mind at ease. I have experience with behavioral dogs, and anxious dogs. Currently able to be flexible, since I work part time with a rescue. I can manage your house as needed for your pets! Located in Marshfield I can travel up to 30 miles. In home services provide your pet with security while you’re gone. They do not have to leave and you can be assured they are well taken care of.

About: I'm excited to be watching dogs again! I also watch entire farms, and many different types of animals.. just ask. Until I get a steady amount of pups per month, I do work outside the home M-F. My home is a TinyHome (12x40 shed conversion) =480 sq ft of play space, and a big yard (now fenced!) and a local park nearby. I've been pet sitting since I was 10. I LOVE dogs! I can administer medication both oral and with a shot under the skin. I ask that the dogs that I sit to be house/potty trained, unless it's a puppy younger than 6 months, and we've chatted about the pups needs. They also need to be able to put a leash on them, without any agression. Snappy or biting dogs aren't a good fit for me or my own dogs. >> I want your pet to be as relaxed and happy as I can make them. I will take any age, and any size dog :) "Exercise is the key to well behaved dogs..a tired puppy is a well behaved puppy" and I can't wait to meet you and your pups! Check out my reviews please! I work away from home currently, but with enough pups visiting, I will transition back to being home full time! When I'm home I incorporate your furbaby into me and my pup's life completely, as if they are one of the family, for the entirety of his/ her stay with me. 🥰🐾

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve cared for pets of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’ve owned dogs myself, helped care for neighbors’ pets, and walked friends’ dogs over the years. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll treat yours with the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and overnight care throughout the week. I understand pets thrive on consistency, and I’m happy to work with your routine to make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure fenced yard and live in a safe south-side neighborhood with plenty of room for walks and playtime. Whether your pet loves to be active or prefers quiet cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel at home and cared for like family.

About: ~~ I’m the perfect sitter for your anxious, mellow or chill or senior dog as I have a calm and peaceful presence. ~~ What sets me apart is that I work remotely, which allows me to be present with pets throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long periods. This gives me the flexibility to respond to their needs, routines, and energy levels. I’ve had experience with animals for many years. I previously owned a black lab named Aurora, and I currently have an orange cat of my own. I also regularly help care for my mother’s two dogs — a Maltese Schnauzer and a Golden Retriever — and I’ve looked after my sister’s dog multiple times in the past as well. Animals tend to gravitate toward me because I pay close attention to their body language, boundaries, and personalities. I’m very mindful of their cues and comfort levels, which helps me understand what they need and how they’re feeling. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’d be happy to give your pet the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. If I’m housesitting, I’m practically readily available. I work a full-time remote job that will still allow me to be present and handle the tasks needed to care for your pets. I would have time to see them in intervals multiple times a day with no problem and with plenty of time for play. But if drop in visits, I can do 2-3 drop in’s. 1st at 7:30-8:30a, 2nd at 11a-1:30p and 3rd at 4:30p-10p - depending on my work schedule and the daily demand. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with the understanding that it is first and foremost your pet’s home and safe environment. I’m very respectful of both the home and the routines that your pet is used to. I keep the environment calm, clean, and consistent so your pet feels comfortable while you’re away. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and house rules. I also avoid loud noise or disruptions and aim to maintain the same peaceful atmosphere your pet is used to. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and cared for, while also treating your home with the same respect I would my own.

About: I have taken care of many kinds of pets ever since I was 10 years old. I have experience giving baths, giving medication, leash walking, post surgery care and scheduled feeding times. I am currently working full time but have free time on the weekends to stop in or take your precious fur babies on a walk. I have a small fenced in area for potty breaks and am comfortable crating your pet if needed. I have two dogs of my own that are very friendly and can keep your babies company as well.

About: I am a local mental health professional and animal lover with 2 fur babies of my own- cats- but I LOVE dogs as well and grew up around them. I have taken care of my own animals and animals of friends and family since I was a child. I will love your fur babies like my own! I have a flexible schedule with shorter workdays, which allows me to be available mornings, evenings, and for frequent check-ins throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, giving me plenty of time to provide consistent attention, play, walks, and companionship. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and love being able to turn my free time into something meaningful by caring for pets as if they were my own. I provide care that fits seamlessly into your pet’s routine and your home environment. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply companionship, I respect your pet’s habits and your household rules, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away

About: I volunteered at CARE which is a no kill pet shelter for cats and dogs in 2014 and recently started volunteering at this place again, February 2018. My duties included feeding and making sure the animals had enough water. Cleaned out kennels and cages and would take the dogs outside and walk them. I have had dogs and cats since I was born and currently had a dog who loved being around other cats and dogs. She loved to play with animals as well and loved children. Her name was Daisy she is in my profile pic with me. Daisy was euthanized on September 1st, 2023. I now have another dog whose name is Emma. She’s a year old and as long as it’s ok with a client I bring her to pet sitting jobs. She loves other animals including cats and loves to play. She’s lovable and affectionate and loves attention. I also have a cat and her name is Maizy. She is four years old and I got her when she was almost 4 weeks old. I would take Daisy for walks and if I could take her with me to other places I did. One of the places I took her was to the pet store. I no longer wear a mask unless I have to. If you prefer for me to wear one please let me know and I will wear one. I use to work at a job which required me to work a 10 hour shift. I am now working at a full time job which has 8 hour shifts. I can work around my schedule if needed. My supervisor does work with me on switching my days around if needed. I can’t keep your pet in my apartment due to rules and restrictions but I can come to your home. I will provide my own food and necessities.

“I love the pictures and timely visits to my cats while away for christmas. She made sure they were fed and had clean water and took time to play with them even for a few minutes. This was beyond what we expected. I will hire her again if she is available when we go out of town again.”

“Tori was excellent!!!, this was my second time using her for my cat. She was friendly, patient and attentive to my not so friendly cat. She kept me updated daily and made me aware of any arrival delays. She followed all my instructions to the letter. I felt 100% comfortable with the care my cat received and I know I will be rebooking again soon! Don’t hesitate to book Tori!!!”

Tracey P.

“I am so grateful for Ara! She did amazing with my young, large dog who can be a handful sometimes. She was very attentive and went above & beyond, making sure all my animals had their needs met & enough attention and love. I appreciate the communication I received as well throughout my trip. Will absolutely be using her again!”

About: I have two dogs of my own and understand the level of care, attention, and trust it takes to look after someone else’s pet. I have experience with both large breeds (including Rottweilers and Labs) as well as small dogs, so I’m comfortable with all sizes and personalities! Working as a nurse, I bring an extra level of attentiveness and awareness to pet care. I’m confident in recognizing changes in behavior, monitoring for any concerns, and staying calm in unexpected situations. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing will always be my top priority! My schedule varies week to week, as I work three 12-hour shifts. On my days off, I have full flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and extended care. On workdays, I’m available for early mornings and evenings. I’m very organized and keep my availability up to date so you can book with confidence. I prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication in every visit. I follow all care instructions closely and take time to understand each pet’s routine and personality. With my background as a nurse, I’m very observant and attentive, and I’m comfortable monitoring for any changes in behavior or health. I have experience with both large and small breeds and always use safe, secure handling during walks and visits. You can expect regular updates, photos, and dependable care every time.
