Cat Sitting Fornis

About: While I’m new to Rover I have been a professional ranch sitter and stable hand for over 30 years. I have taken care of animals of many kinds since I was in high school. I'm certified through the United States Pony Club for horsemanship, have 4H experience with birds and goats and am knowledge in first aid care. I have bred and have experience with reptiles and small exotic pets. I have worked as a foster home for special needs rescue animals and I"m always learning. Let me provide mature expert care for your pets including older/special needs, exotic pets, and livestock. Emergency and fire evacuation planning during fire seasons for our area is a requirement to ensure I can execute your plan and am the right fit for your needs. I work from home Mon - Fri so I can sit mid-week but need access to high-speed internet if I'm staying in your home. I do take well behaved cats and dogs in my own home, as long as they meet and get along with my animal friendly pets. My weekends are available if I'm not previously engaged, but I do have an active schedule so I will work with you to ensure my schedule is a good fit for your pets. I am available for overnights, drop in and some boarding care for your pets and home. I have a detailed checklist to help set expectations for care whether in your home or mine. I do a health and safety check twice a day (morning and evening) to ensure the items on your list have been completed. The care of your animals and property is always my highest priority and I will work with you to set clear expectations and let you know if I'm a good fit. Please note, if you are interested in boarding, we do have 3 small friendly inside dogs and a blind indoor kitty. They are all extremely well socialized, vaccinated and used to meeting new client's pets. We also living on a working ranch and while I can keep your pet separate if they are housebroken and crate trained, I will also incorporate them safely into our daily routine when its appropriate and best for them. Our doggie guests love playing in our large fenced yard where they can see our livestock but not get in with them.

“Our kittens were healthy and happy when we got home from a weekend away thanks to Nicole! You can trust her to take great care of your pets and leave your house nice and clean! We also have a kitten with FIP. I was confident leaving him in Nicole’s care and trusted her to give him his daily meds! Thank you Nicole!”

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!).

About: I have experience caring for lots of animals like cats and dogs. I had to help raise our kittens after their mom died when they were two weeks old. I have basic experience with animal care, special diets and medication, and showing them love and attention! I work part time several days a week during the day. Typically 6 hour days when I’m pet sitting. Depending on location, might be able to work something out if your pets can’t be home alone that long. I tend to spend time with the animals where I can be around them, such as being in the living room if they’re inside animals or checking on them often if they’re outdoors. Try to follow whatever schedule the animal needs to the best of my ability (such as feeding times or walks).

“Sienna took amazing care of my kitties for the weekend and made me feel super relaxed and comfortable. My cats are very shy but she got them out of their shells the first day with her attentiveness and care. Sienna did an excellent job communicating throughout the weekend and sent me a ton of pictures of my cats which made me so happy! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone- you can really tell she cares deeply for animals.”

“Teri was fantastic! She went above and beyond trying to coax our timid cat out from under the bed. Everything was well taken care of and very timely. She was on top of everything and responded to communications very promptly. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring sitter.”

About: Served as a volunteer and foster parent for many rescued animals in Bali during the pandemic. My experience with animals is vast. Ive grown up with many different kinds of pets. Cats. Dogs. Birds. Reptiles. Rodents. Chickens. ducks. Donkeys. Horses. Pigs. Goats. You name it. I love all animals. I was raised in the foothills in the redwood forest. I’m a very down to earth and healthy lifestyle human who just loves fur babies of all types. I’m attentive and loving and playful with animals. I really need it as much as they do. I work early in the mornings off around 9am and then have most of the day to myself. It’s nice to have an excuse to take a dog on a walk or to lounge around with some kitty cuddles. Having animals in my home makes it feel more like a home. In my own home I will be in close proximity at all times and I will be home the entire time so I can sense when potty breaks or walks are needed. I really enjoy taking walks myself so it’s a perfect fit to have dogs over. Cats are similar with the exception of walks unless you want to leash train them or already have. I love to keep an eye on them so they don’t hurt themselves and I give lots of play time.

About: I have worked for boarding facilities before, one that had no kennels and one that did. I have had lots of experience taking care of dogs and cats, giving oral medications, and watching them during the day to day. I love animals and always think of them as a part of your family. I am available everyday except for Tuesday's and Thursday's. As long as I have two days notice I have no issue doing check-ins, walks, or watching your furry friends with whatever schedule works best! Due to my previous experience with boarding facilities, I am well trained to follow instructions left by owners. Whatever schedule my clients have I will adapt to and perform, so that their pet won’t get confused or distressed by the change in schedule. I make sure to give special love and attention to each and every pet I care for.

About: I am a very intuitive, animal lover. I have been nurturing dog, cats and farm animals for many years. I am comfortable loving on and caring for all kinds of furry and not so furry friends… I'm available early mornings, afternoons and weekends (after 3:00pm) in addition to overnights. I'm flexible and willing to work with your needs. As I'll be coming to you, I am comfortable with all housing types and pet situations whether they are free to roam, indoor or outdoor, or crated.

“Isabella arrived right on time for Mazie’s drop-in walk and kept me updated throughout. She was attentive and communicative, and best of all, she sent photos from their time together—I loved seeing Mazie enjoying the outing. Isabella clearly cares about the dogs in her care. Mazie was happy when she got home. Couldn’t ask for better. Will definitely book again!”

“Sabrina is a joy to work with to watch our lil dude Nico. Her communication is fantastic and she always went the extra mile to ensure he was well-cared for. We had complete ease of mind being away and knowing that he received lots of love, cuddles and care.”

“Maryjane was great! She stepped in when an emergency forced my other sitter to end the stay early and she picked up the care for my cat without missing a beat! My cat clearly loved her, too. He was happy and well fed, and my apartment looked great when I got home! I will definitely book with her again!”

About: I’ve always loved animals. Everytime I’ve went over to a friends house I’ll sit there for hours playing with their pets. I like taking the time to get to know their little creatures and their adorable personalities. Caring for pets is truly one of life's greatest joys. The unconditional love and companionship they provide is unparalleled and they deserve the very best care. Dedicate time each day to attend to the needs of these wonderful animals is a privilege in itself. It's a reminder that hard work is essential in ensuring their well-being and happiness. I’ll make sure the animals are comfortable and safe with someone else in their home! It’s the pets territory and I will always respect their spaces.

About: I have loved and cared for animals my entire life, starting from a very young age. Today I share my home with 2 dogs, 3 cats, and 2 pet rat. I completely understand the worry that comes with leaving your pet in someone else's hands, which is why I treat every animal as if they were my own. Responsible, patient, and gentle by nature, I have a deep love for all animals Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am available for drop-in visits and walks Monday through Friday between 9am and 3pm, and I also offer evening availability throughout the week. I keep my schedule intentionally manageable so that every pet I care for gets the time and attention they deserve. During every drop-in visit I make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I will take dogs out for a walk, spend quality playtime with both your dogs and/or cats, refresh their food and water, and clean up any messes they may have made while you were away. I treat every home I enter with the utmost respect, leaving things just as I found them

“Yang did a great job, cats looked and acted well-fed. I don’t think they missed us at all. Would definitely book with Yang again.”

About: Not only do I have 10 years of experience of pet sitting, I have experience working with shelter dogs. I’ve been with Placer SPCA as a volunteer for many years. I work with fearful, excitable, shy and even reactive dogs on a weekly basis. I make sure to give them the best care I can provide. I have plenty of free time and my shelter schedule is very flexible! I spend most of my time caring for pets or working with animals. I am someone that you can contact last minute for pet sitting! I will make sure that your pet gets all the love, care and attention your best friend could possibly need. I provide mostly overnight care, in which I make sure your pup is cared for in the same way you do every day. Building trust is very important to me, I’ll make sure to send pictures of your dog (or other animals) along with a report of how they are doing and any other info you may need.
