Cat Sitting in Foresthill

“Remi is a wonderful care taker. After our initial meeting, I knew she was the right person to care for my senior dog. She even visited with my gecko. Remi will be my go-to person for future needs. I strongly recommend her!”

“Melissa went above and beyond during her house sitting for me. She’s communicative, reliable, and she even cleaned my apartment for me, which was extremely kind and appreciated. I trust my cats with her and I would book again with Melissa in a heartbeat.”

About: I am a compassionate life long animal lover. I’ve worked in animal hospitals with large boarding facilities, as the lead kennel technician, as well as being a veterinary assistant. I spent my days playing with and caring for other people's animals. I am able to give medications and tend to special needs animals. Though I left my hospital job when I moved here at the beginning of the pandemic, I've chosen to continue to work with animals because it is something that comes naturally to me & I feel that it's important to love what you do. I look forward to meeting new furry friends! I now have a fairly open schedule so I am mostly free to work with new clients to meet their pets needs and keep a consistent routine 💜 I am happy to hang out and get cozy with animals that aren’t up to outside playtime, and I love being outside with those that do have more energy! My parents currently have a puppy and I visit daily to have play time and help wear him out a bit (bc it’s so fun!).

“Nicole took excellent care of our cat Kitty for a week. She was well organized, neat and left a clean environment for Kitty every day. Enjoyed the photos sent to us.”

About: Hi! I’m Bella, a devoted pet lover and experienced caregiver excited to meet your furry family members. At home, I have a friendly Australian Shepherd named Frankie who loves playing and hanging out with other dogs, plus two cats- Junie and Pickle, who are super dog-friendly. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, a companion while you’re away, or a safe place to stay, I’m here to provide personalized care with plenty of attention and love.🐾 When your dog stays with me you can expect them to play with Frankie, go for walks and hikes, and be treated as a member of our family. I am currently on a break from work so I have plenty of time to walk and play with the pets I take care of. I have a fenced yard to let dogs out to potty and play. I have a 3-year-old, dog-loving Australian Shepherd to keep your pup company. We do have gates to separate dogs if they need some time alone to relax and have extra crates if your pup likes a place of their own to relax. Dogs are allowed up on our furniture and treated with the same love and care as our pets.

“Ashley did a wonderful job taking care of our cat with daily visits while we were on vacation. Our cat Molly is usually pretty shy with new people and hides, but she liked Ashley right away. We appreciated the photos, updates and good care she provided!”

About: I've been taking care of animals for a little over 5 years including my own animals. I have 1 dog and 1 Guinea pig. I used to volunteer for Mollys Militia which was animal foster/adoption center. During my volunteer hours I would make sure the dogs were fed and had water and were always in good condition living their best life. I am currently looking for a at home job to help with the convenience of staying home with my dog and caring for every other animal that would come into my care. I have a fenced yard that my dog loves to run around in. My dog is friendly towards other dogs. He is also neutered and well trained.

About: I grew up around dogs my entire life, we’ve always had various pets in our household from bunnies, rats, ferrets to German Shepard’s, pit bulls and chihuahuas. I’m always home on the weekends, usually just chilling in bed watching movies, or go for a nice walk on the beach or in downtown. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions! *Please do not book with me if your dog cannot be left alone during the day. I work from 6a-3p during the week and I have a small apartment so I cannot have them barking the entire time I’m gone. Thank you for understanding* I do work during the weekdays but I work close to my home so I can always come home on my lunch to give midday potty breaks if needed. I have a consistent schedule and am usually home by 3/4pm. Dogs are kept separated when I am not home and I also have 24/7 camera on my apartment so I can always keep an eye on the dogs when I’m not there.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I could remember. I have had dogs my whole life who I feed, water and walk! Along with taking care of friends, family and neighbors furry friends too! I’m currently not working so I have plenty of time to spend with your animals! Im very flexible with your needs/wants! In additional i make time to feed, water, walk and play with my puppies as well! I have a big fenced yard at home! When i’m taking care of other fur babies I make sure they eat their food and drink their water! I also play with them each time I go over and spend a minimum of an hour to make sure they are happy! I love meeting new furry friends!

“Rachel was great! She did check ins on my dog over the weekend. She left detailed reports for us and lots of cute pictures.”

About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was 5. I have a degree in animal science, specializing in horses. I have a one year old Labrador named Kilala who I already take on walks. Let me add your pet to our adventures. I just started a new job. I work Monday-Friday half days. Usually unavailable on weekends unless I have plenty of notice. If the request if for house sitting your dog needs to get along with mine I want to take your dog on walks/hikes. I already have my own dog so she needs to come with me if I am house sitting and ideally she would join in on all walks. Please no pets that are aggressive towards other dogs or people.

About: We got our first family dog when I was five and I’ve loved dogs ever since! I regularly pet sit and house sit for friends, family, and people I've caregive for. It's been one of the best jobs I've ever had. I've spent a lot of time around puppies so I do have some skills in puppy training and use positive reinforcement with treats as my personal preference for training. I also have a lot of experience with cats and have one myself. I really love taking pictures/photography so I'll be sure to send you quality pictures of your fur babies while I'm with them! I do pet sitting/house sitting part time but my schedule is really flexible since I work mainly from home. I'm free most weekdays and weekends! More than likely, I will walk your dog in your neighborhood. But I do love to go on long walks/hikes so if you're open to doing a 60 minute walk or over night stay, I'll make sure to take your dog somewhere fun whether it's to a local dog park or to the river!

About: I was raised from birth with and by dogs. I was raised on a farm with a large pack of dogs of all sizes and types, and that helped me to understand their body language, their need for respect and how to handle them. I have helped in training over 15+ dogs in crate training, potty training, general tricks, and manners. I have also helped pet parents learn more about how to communicate with, support and understand their pets. I am also a mother of 4 that homeschools leaving my schedule more open to the needs and engagement of my visiting pets. I am a stay at home mom and am available 7 days a week unless specified at that time. I intend to walk the pups throughout the day as well as play sessions if the pup enjoys playing. I have a large land that the pups would need to stay leashed in while on walks, but also have a play yard that is perfect for free range play and relaxing. I have a big home that they can find themselves in relaxing with my pup, as well as an outdoor “giant dog house”, that the pups can also lounge in during the day.

“Megan did great with our pup while we were gone. Great communication sent us our pictures as requested and even played with our little guy. We will be using her anytime we go out of town ?”

About: Exercise and stimulation for your dog’s brain is important to me. I will walk your dogs and play games with her or him. I have experience administering medication to my own dogs. I will play games with your dogs with their favorite toys. I am enrolled in two courses, “Inside Your Dog’s Mind with Victoria Stilwell” and “Dog Emotion and Cognition.” My schedule is flexible and I’m available to walk your dogs when you need and provide care for them if you are going out of town. I will follow feeding schedules for your pets, give them exercise, and play fun games with them depending on your dog’s interests. I am an aspiring dog trainer and learning skills to bring to your dogs if you are interested.

About: I am a college student who misses her pets at home and wants to spend time with others here! I have a special place in my heart for cattle dogs and pit bulls as well as cats and unusual animals (rats, anyone?). Growing up I frequently cared for my neighbors' pets as well as my own Aussie, cats, rabbit, and birds ensuring that all are clean, fed, watered, and happy. Now I'm doing the same thing with my fish, and hope to soon expand to your best friend! Due to the college life, I have a strict schedule but promise to do my utmost to maintain flexibility and faithfulness. Typically, I will have time in both mornings and afternoons to visit your best friends; it all depends on which days are free. I will work with you to ensure that your friends are safe and protected until you get back! I have experience with dogs who have attachment issues and need extra protection and care when their Person is gone and will always treat them with the utmost respect and care.
