Cat Sitting in Friendsville

“Ashlyn was amazing with our 4 cats over Christmas. I was sent so many photos of them happily playing and getting lots of attention. She even got my shy cat to cuddle with her! I was shocked to say the least. She even cleaned up all of their bowls so they were clean when we got back. I am so grateful to have someone I trust stay with my cats while we’re away. Traveling is already so stressful, but its much easier when you have someone there to care for your cats just as you would. 🥰❤️”

About: Hello! My name is Mara and I would love to help with your furbabies while you are away and cant! Loving and compassionate towards any and all animals! I am a dog mom myself and know the struggles of finding a safe and loving place while away! I offer overnight stays, dog walking, and drop ins! I have 2 female dobermans who are gentle giants. One is 4 years old and i also have a 1 year old. She LOVES playing and having friends around! Small or large!! I can assure you that your dog/cat would be more than at home here and treated just as my own. I also have a 14 year old son who loves animals as well and really enjoys helping out with their needs. Looking forward to hearing from you! I work from home, so your pet will never be alone or crated all day! I have a fenced in front and back yard that are separated, they are let out very frequently as we go in and out all the time and they go freely as they want since it's all fenced in! There is nothing around my home that isn't safe for them they are part of the family when they are here! I work from home, so I am always here with them! No different from any other day except four extra paws and a new friend 😍 I have a fenced yard. The front is separated from the back so they can go out together or separately. Besides that they run free in my home, possibly crated at night time so we don't have any uh ohs!

About: Hello! I'm Kelsey. Here's $20 off your first Rover booking! https://www.rover.com/sit/kelsek56888 I have 11 years of veterinary medicine experience and am pretty comfortable caring for pets of all kinds and in all walks of life! I have experience taking care of house pets like dogs, cats, birds, pocket pets and reptiles as well as most common farm animals like horses, cattle, goats, and chickens. I am comfortable caring for pets who may have behavioral issues and/or medical issues. Senior pets and shy pets are always some of my favorites to work with. I also have a dog bathing tub, a grooming table, and love making your furry friends squeaky clean! Thank you for considering me as your pet sitter! I currently work full-time as a veterinary assistant and enjoy providing pet care in my time off. I am available nearly every weekend and after work most days during the week. The health and safety of your pet is my #1 priority. My goal is to always take care of pets as if they are my own, and my pets are my whole world. I follow directions left for me exactly when doing drop-in visits and dog walks. I am vigilant when walking dogs in public spaces and always make sure a dog's collar/harness fits well and is fastened correctly.

About: Hello! I’m a stay at home mom who loves pets! Prior to children I had my own pet sitting company. Now I’m back at it. I love long walks and engaging with your pet! Your baby is in good hands when they are with me ❤️ I’m currently a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule. My hours and days vary and can accommodate most requests! Don’t hesitate to ask! I love pets and walking! I will treat your fur babies like my own when they are with me and make sure they are well looked after.

“Betty was incredible! She sat for my 3 cats while I was out of town on a work trip for a week. I received daily updates and very cute videos! I immediately felt like my home and pets were in good hands! Will absolutely be booking again when I travel 💜”

About: Vacations shouldn't just be for the pet parents, the pets should get a new fun experience too. This is why I strive to keep in step with your pet's routines whilst also adding some fun enrichment, ample physical activities, and extra helpings of love and attention. In addition to walks; if your dog is a social butterfly, like me, and they frequent the dog parks; let's go! I have a vehicle built for pet field trips/adventures! I have a gift for helping injured or sick animals recover as well , I just haven't had the opportunity to care for a special needs dog yet. That being said, I am willing to learn and follow your routines for them. I am very dedicated to learning more pet care skills. I even rehabbed an injured squirrel for about a year until she returned to the wild. So, I am skilled in helping pets that may need extra help/care or medical issues that require a little more attention. I am also a Licensed Massage and Cupping Therapist, though I am not certified specifically in pet massage, when I do give a dog a massage....They LOVE it! I am also willing to care for pets other than dogs or cats; within reason of course....not sure I am equipped for Lions, Tigers, or Bears... OH MY! So, reach out let's set up a meet & greet; I would love to come out and meet you and your pets to see if we are a good fit! I have most days free. I occasionally do some pick-up work on some nights here and there, however, it would not be for a great deal of hours, and I am able to get home (or to your pets) at a decent time on those evenings. I do prefer to meet both you and your pets first, before taking on a care request, to assess safety for myself and the pet as well as understanding their surroundings. This allows me and you to evaluate if we are a good fit. I believe this is the first step in creating a solid foundation for a safe and fun experience for all involved. Especially, until your pet(s) and I get to know each other better, I would say I am hypervigilant in the beginning; not just for safety precautions but also to understand their routines, needs, communication styles, learning styles, training levels, etc... I am at their side anytime we go out. Even if you have a fenced in backyard I will either be out there playing with them and helping them get in some physical activity or I watch them closely from a window or door. As we learn more about each other, I take great care in developing solid communication with your pet so that they can understand and respond well. The more "simpatíca" we are, the more trust is built, the better responds to commands, which in turn strengthen that foundation of safety. Beyond the pet safety, If I am house sitting for you, I strive to keep your home safe and clean. I will respect and protect your home as if it were mine. Even If I am not house sitting and only doing drop-ins or walks. I will stay observant and keep your home safe as well; let you know if anything seems amiss, grab your mail so no one knows you aren't at home, rotate which rooms lights are on in your house, etc... A safe environment means a safe pet! I am also good at communicating with the pet parents throughout my booked care time via pictures, videos, texts, and calls. My goal is to make sure no pet parents even have to wonder how their pet is doing. I prefer to keep you in the loop so it's not you having to reach out to me. Communication is key for creating the safest most comfortable environment for any pet.

About: I believe animals deserve to be treated with patience, respect, and understanding, just like people. I’m attentive to each pet’s comfort level, habits, and quirks — whether it’s a shy cat that needs gentle space, a senior dog who moves a little slower, or a puppy bursting with energy. I know the signs of stress or discomfort and adjust care accordingly. Caring for pets isn’t just something I do—it’s an integral part of my daily life. Each day, I prioritize their needs around meals, exercise, and attention. I tailor care to each pet’s personality—whether they need activity, cuddles, or quiet companionship. Their comfort, happiness, and health are always my top priority. Whether in my home or your pet’s, I provide loving, attentive care that prioritizes their comfort and happiness. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean environment, daily walks, playtime, and plenty of social interaction with me and my own pets. In your home, I maintain your pet’s usual routines—feeding, walks, play, and cuddles—so they feel secure and comfortable in familiar surroundings. I always follow any special instructions you provide, including medication, dietary needs, or activity restrictions, and I send regular updates so you never have to worry.

About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life. I love playing with dogs and making sure they are comfortable and well taken care of . I’ve had English Setters, Golden retrievers, and Huskies. Although I do not have any dogs at the moment, I am able to help other owners take care of their four legged family members! I will treat your animals just the way you treat them, with kind and loving care. I enjoy taking dogs on on walks and can ensure that they will get the exercise they need and make sure to cater to any special needs your animal may need. I’m very good with dogs having a calm demeanor and environment for them making them feel as comfortable as possible.

“Super responsive and took great care of the cats!”

About: I have an abundance of experience with walking dogs for my friends and family when they are out of town or unavailable, and some experience with cat-sitting as well. I love pets of all sorts and sizes, but must admit I love large dogs most of all. I am here to expand my circle and find more furry friends to walk, play fetch, and/or hang out with - hopefully I can make them happy for a moment while you’re not around. My daily schedule is flexible at the moment, so I should be able to meet a good variety of availability needs for the foreseeable future I do have a bit of shared greenspace outside my home, but not a fenced-in yard. But I am never far from a park or some sort of open space we can use to throw a ball or run around. I would mainly try to meet your expectations and care for your pets in much the same ways they normally enjoy.

About: Hi! My name is Lauren! Pets are family and they are important parts of our lives for sure. I treat every pet with the love and care it deserves! I am a very detail-oriented person and want to make sure your pet is as comfortable as possible. Keeping their routine is important to me as it lessens their stress and yours! I am currently an optometry student on rotations and have the weekends open and Friday evenings as well! Feel free to message me if you need any more details! I try to keep your pet as much in their routine as possible! If you have a backyard, I love to play outside with them if that is something your pets like to do! I also know several parks that would be great to walk dogs in such as Curtis Arboretum and Alverthorpe Park! I aim to make sure each pet feels loved and cared for in your absence!

“Thank you, Cheryl!! Everything was Purrfect when we returned from Holiday. Biggie and Simon appreciate all the attention they received from you. You’re Wonderful.! 💝”

“Excellent experience with Gidget. She was prompt, sent photos, and tried to coax the shy kitty from under the bed. When she had unforseen circumstances, she was quick to let me know of the change and still provided great care. Definitely will book with Gidget again!”

About: I have had dogs in my life since I was a small child. I take care of my parents dog Coco whenever they need me last minute. I also have a golden doodle named Mando myself and he is my life and joy. The ability to watch and care of animals truly brings me pure joy. I am generally available to watch animals anytime of the week. I am in school but all of my classes are online. As long as I have access to internet to do work a few hours or the day I am available. I make sure I have cameras in my house to look after my fur baby when I am not there. I also make sure to watch him closely when letting him potty since we don’t have a fenced in yard.

“Thank you, Kirsten, for looking after my dear companion in my absence. The daily notes and images really helped me feel at ease. Kirsten is personable, competent and, above all, reliable. My kitty warmed to her immediately.”
