Cat Sitting Hallstead

“Darcy was outstanding. She was great with the dogs, sent lots of pictures, even offered to stop by extra if the dogs were afraid of thunderstorms. She communicated promptly and was willing to bring in the mail for us. I can certainly recommend her, and will contact her again should the need arise. Thank you, Darcy.”

About: Hi! My name is Brooklin, and animals have been a huge part of my life for over 18 years. I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. I previously worked with the Charleston Animal Society, where I gained valuable experience caring for animals and understanding their individual needs. My background has given me the skills to provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care for your pets while you're away. I am comfortable administering medications when needed and have experience monitoring pets' health, feeding schedules, water intake, bathroom habits, and overall well-being. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm and relaxed environment, I strive to make them feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities. My goal is to treat every animal as if they were my own and provide pet parents with peace of mind through dependable care and communication. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! At the moment I have a full time job, but have weekends off. I plan to entail doing this on my weekends and even after work days. This is more then just making it my routine. I adore animal(s). I have a fenced in yard, I as well have a crate. Plenty of opportunities for walking adventures. I enjoy going to the dog park, as well with adventuring outside anywhere with the animal(s). Whatever you set for rules or boundaries I’ll always continue to respect them, and always follow. I enjoy working with animal(s)

About: With over 18+ years of experience as a dedicated pet owner, I treat every animal as part of the family. From playful puppies to senior pets, I provide attentive care tailored to their needs. You can count on reliable service, regular updates, and a loving touch for your furry companion while you’re away. Your pets happiness and well-being are my priority! As a full-time special education, teacher and mother of two, I’m available for daytime pet care on holidays and weekends. While my teaching hours limit morning and afternoon availability during the week, I ensure flexible and reliable care during my free time to meet your pet’s needs. I provide a tentative and loving care for pets in the comfort of their own home, ensuring their routine stays consistent. This includes feeding, refreshing water, walks or playtime, administering medicines (if needed), and cleaning up after them. I also offer plenty of affection and keep you updated with regular check-in and photos for peace of mind while you’re away.

“Very responsive, excellent communication, and attentive while looking after my cats. I am very pleased with Samuel. I will definitely continue working with him. Highly recommend Samuel if you have cats.”

“Marissa was so communicative and sweet while watching my cat! If I had any questions or needed anything I knew she would be helpful or responsive. My cat also loved her which tells me a lot about her! 💛”

About: I’ve taken care of lots of pets over the years. I enjoy being around animals and showing them love because they do the same for us! I have a genuine love for taking care of things if I can help it and I’m going to school to even become a nurse. I also started a house plant hobby. Taking care of things is just in my blood. I’m available more in the evenings . My schedule is flexible but inconsistent because I’m part time at my jobs but we can discuss availability if you book me to take care of your pet(s)! I have a fenced in back yard and just one cat. I’m able to keep them separated if needed. I also have my own home and it’s a smoke free one! I’m very clean and clean my home daily. I let my cat on the couches so yours will be allowed the same if they are not dirty of course.

About: I've owned a variety of animals and grew up in household that encouraged living animals of all sorts. Have seen animals through their best days and worst. I've had experience with diabetes (cats briefly), and various medications. Worked with all sizes of dogs. I currently work Mon-Fri appx 8-4. Looking to support evening puppy care. Pretty flexible most evenings. Weekends will be more flexible based on my availability. I'm an affectionate and patient pet owner. If your baby needs a little extra comfort or hand holding, I'm good with that. Your expectations will be my guide.

“First time using a dog sitter and I was very pleased working with Jackie. She is reliable and kind and my dog seemed happy when I came home. I would definitely recommend Jackie and will be using her services in the future.”

“Colleen was great over the weekend my dog ended up being sick witn pneumonia and she sent messages and pics while I was at work- it’s nice to have a reliable person to check in on my dogs when I can’t be at home. I plan on using her again for sure.”

About: About Me 🐾 Hi!! I’m a 30-year-old elementary school teacher who absolutely loves animals 💛 I grew up on a farm, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life—it’s something that just comes naturally to me! I’ve had the opportunity to dog sit for a few wonderful families (including one with both dogs and a cat!), and I truly love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Whether your pet is playful, loves to cuddle, or prefers a calm and cozy environment, I’m happy to match their energy and make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a teacher, I’m patient, responsible, and very trustworthy. Families trust me every day with their children, and I bring that same level of care and dependability when looking after pets. I understand how important routines are and how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone—and I don’t take that lightly. I will treat your pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel happy, safe, and so well cared for while you’re away. My Experience 🐶🐱 - Grew up on a farm (lots of hands-on animal care!) - Dog sitting experience with multiple families - Experience caring for both dogs and cats in the same home - Comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and routines A Little Extra 🐾 I love sending updates, pictures, and little check-ins so you always feel connected and reassured 😊 Availability 🐾 I’m available for pet care before and after school during the week, which works great for morning visits, walks, or evening check-ins. As a teacher, I have a consistent daily schedule, so you can count on me to be dependable and on time. I’m also open to weekend care when my schedule allows—feel free to reach out and I’ll always do my best to accommodate! Safety, Trust & Environment 🐾 I provide care in your home so your pet can stay comfortable in their own familiar environment. I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. As a teacher, I’m very responsible, trustworthy, and detail-oriented, so you can feel confident your pet and home are in good hands. I always make sure pets feel safe, calm, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m also happy to send updates and pictures so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is happy and doing well 😊

About: I’ve been pet sitting alone for about 8 years now! Friends, neighbors, and other folks have relied on me to feed and walk their pets as well as house sit. I’ve worked with cats, dogs, almost all domestic farm species, amphibians, reptiles, and fish. I’ve just graduated UVM with an Animal Science degree, where I’ve taken helpful classes such as Intro To Exotic Pet Care class and Canine Behavior where I trained local shelter dogs. Through my studies, I’ve learned about nutrition, anatomy, welfare, husbandry, and diseases/ailments for many species. I’ve worked with a lot of senior animals who have a variety of backgrounds at a farm sanctuary, so I’m comfortable working with pets with special needs. I’ve also been working as an ICH Tech at an equine clinic so I am comfortable with medications such as injections as well. I love talking about my experience and am happy to answer any questions people may have! I love going for walks and hiking! The outdoors are so beautiful and even more lovely when you get to share them with a pet. Early morning walks are my personal favorite. Pet visits also work well in my schedule. I don't mind stopping by to let a pet out, feed, clean, and provide enrichment. I love reading and am happy to hang out with pets outside while I do so. Clear communication and meeting the needs of the client are the most important pieces to pet care to me. I like to take notes about expectations and routines, such as feeding or play time, that way I can provide pets with the most consistency and familiarity I can. I like to update folks about their pets by sending photos and messages. And I keep my phone nearby with notifications on throughout my time so that I am available if folks have any questions, concerns, or are just missing their pet and would like a picture!

About: I am an animal care enthusiast dedicated to assisting you with various pet services, including training, boarding, feeding, walking, daycare, and grooming options. I have owned my own grooming business for two years, and I officially launched it to the public on January 1, 2025. I am energetic and enjoy visiting dog parks and going on walks with pets. In addition to dogs, I also care for and groom cats, and I am open to working with exotic pets as well. I have experience working in a veterinary office, which complements my grooming business. Currently, I am studying to become a veterinary technician and have been caring for and training animals since I was 13 years old. I have successfully trained my own pets to be obedient and have also helped train other pets. Please let me know how I can assist you! I provide grooming services and can adjust my schedule. Please let me know a day and time that works for you and we can work it out! I provide a stress-free environment that rewards good behavior during boarding. I do not allow pets to stay in their crates for long periods. Instead, we spend time outside playing and engaging in daily training exercises with each pet. Each animal is treated like they’re at home, with the option to have their own food and treats, as well as those I provide. Pets are allowed on the couch and can roam freely throughout the house. We do have a designated space for one of my pets due to her tendency to cause destruction if not monitored, but this decision is ultimately based on the needs of each individual pet.

“I can't say enough good things about Johnna. This was my first time having Johnna pet sit for my dog and three casts. She sent me several pictures of the pets and wrote informative reviews of how they were doing. Johnna walked Flossy, my dog each day. She was meticulous in terms of picking up after the animals. When I returned I found the house in order. Johnna is pleasant to work with. I highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and helped train them when they were puppies. I have 1 dog and a cat right now, and love playing with, walking them, and cuddling. I worked at a doggy daycare for 2 years and as a pet groomer for under 1 year, and I also earned my Dog Training Certification through Animal Behavior College. I adore pets and always have, and I strive to make any pets day the best with whatever they need! I currently go to school and work part-time. Working part time allows me to have more time to play with your dogs. I am able to spend time with your pups on Mondays and Wednesdays anytime 12pm or after. Along with Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays at any time! The first thing I will always do with your pups is let them get to know me by letting them set the course of our greeting, if they are shy we go slower. Whatever the dog needs is my number one priority along with keeping the Pet Parent informed. I will always be attentive when watching your pup in your home, and if there is medication that needs to be administered I can do so properly with the exception of needles/shots.

“Kara did an amazing job taking care of our furbaby, Ellie, while we were away. She took pictures and let us know how things went at each visit. Kara took our worry away from leaving Ellie. We would definitely schedule with Kara again!”

Susan R.

“Sabrina did a great job with our pups! We’re a multi-dog household, so it can be a bit chaotic here, but she took everything in stride and met all our expectations 👍”

About: My name is Brianna and I’m a kindergarten teacher during the school year and an avid animal lover year-round. I’ve always had a passion for caring for animals, and I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets as if they were my own. During the summer, weekends, and school breaks, I have extra time to dedicate to giving pets the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight care, you can count on me to provide dependable, compassionate care. I have a 4-year-old Goldendoodle named Winston who has taught me so much about caring for dogs. He’s energetic, loves going to the dog park, enjoys playing with other dogs, and is just as happy curling up for cuddles after a fun day of adventures. Being Winston’s owner has strengthened my love for animals and helped me understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. I’ll treat your furry family member with the same patience, kindness, and attention that I give Winston, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I am available any time throughout the summer; my schedule is more flexible during this time. Once the school year begins, I will be available only on weekends. I will maintain the safety of the dog and/or cat at all times. I have great communication skills and will always follow the needs of the dog provided by the owner.

“Kathleen has taken such good care of my boy, I would recommend her to anyone! ❤️”

About: Hi, Everyone! My name is Cara. Thank you for visiting my page. My strong admiration for animals has only grown more with the more animals I meet and as a result, it brings me genuine happiness. It is a rewarding experience to be able to take care of any animal that needs it while their owner is away. Since starting Rover in August 21’, I’ve had 10+ repeat clients and have established great friendships with families/people in the community as a result. I have a M-F teaching position 8am-4pm and summer months off. I am currently a part time Binghamton University graduate student studying for a masters degree in early childhood special education. A little history: I grew up with a miniature schnauzer (Zoie) whom towards the end of her life, needed constant supervision and was administered medicine 3x/ day, grooming/washing daily. I was always there to comfort her until the end of her life and spoiled her beyond belief. Myself and my family provided care to my mini schnauzer for over 12 years. As a child, I never had a dog sitter to send updates, pictures/videos for my sweet Zoie when my family would travel, so I strongly understand the importance of quick and reliable communication/sending updates while you’re away to ease your anxiety. Experience - administering medicine/injections - cats, big dogs, small dogs, senior animals, special needs pets, pigs, cows, chickens. -exercise/run with your pet -hospice/end of life care (Repositioning every hour, hand feeding, massages, cooking packs, frozen bone broth snacks on warmer days, the list goes on) Pets and animals deserve to be spoiled but most importantly, they deserve to be loved. I have a white pitbull fur baby (Minnie). Shes a loyal, sweet and well behaved dog, I’m so lucky and thankful for her every day as she brings me so much happiness. She stays at home with her other best friend, my significant other while I’m away. If you think I’d be a good fit for your fur baby or have any questions or concerns, I’m here to answer them all and hope you will consider me to take care of your pet. I work M-F through a nearby school, being able to provide supervision to animals while I am home. Check my calendar for the most up to date availability, please 😌 House sitting: Provide overnight care, 24/7 care, other responsibilities to care for your home while you are away (watering plants, picking up mail, cleaning, etc.) Always love to send picture and video updates 2-3x/a day of your furry one to ensure you are comfortable and know that your animal is well cared for and happy in my care!

“Grace came to watch Bax with very short notice which took a lot of weight off my shoulders. She is caring , followed my instructions and Baxter seems very relaxed with her. I will be using her services again.”
