Cat Sitting in Haw Branch

“Victoria was just wonderful. We had never used Rover before and to be honest we hardly traveled because we worried about leaving our cat. Finley is usually very leery of people he doesn't know, but he seemed very comfortable with Victoria from the start. Her messages and photos were very reassuring and he seemed very relaxed and content when we returned home. We were debating another longer trip and now plan to go because we have peace of mind in knowing that we have Victoria to look after Finley.”

“Damacia did a phenomenal job caring for our cat while we were away. The brief daily posts helped reassure us, and we were really able to enjoy our trip! Our kitty clearly loves Damacia, who seems to have quite a gift with animals. Fantastic!”

About: I've had dogs since I can remember. My fiancé watched dogs in the past with rover and I would always help. Take the dogs to the park on my days off, play outside, and train them when needed. I am currently on veterans disability so I can focus my whole day to your furry friend. No worry about being stuck in all day. I have 5 acres of yard for them to play on. I have lots of space if needed, room for crates, room outside. Plenty of space so your furry friend won't feel trapped. My animals mind their own.

“Kelly was amazing! One of my cats is very timid around strangers and she warmed up to Kelly right away. Cats can sense a good cat person, and Kelly definitely is one. It was my first time leaving my cats alone for so long, but Kelly made me feel better by sending me pictures every visit and was easy to communicate with. She was even so kind as to water my plants for me. Next time I go out of town, I will absolutely hire her again!”

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was seven years old. My family had two kittens that I cared for and I was responsible for pet sitting other fur babies in the neighborhood growing up. I also attended many animal science/nature camps growing up, it’s where I got my first hermit crab! I also know the Heimlich maneuver for both cats and dogs. In my junior year of high school I applied and was accepted to the HOSA veterinary science program where I graduated in the National Honors Society. Shortly after graduation, I started working at a veterinary hospital as a veterinary assistant. My job was to help restrain animals for exams/shots, organize medications, prepare/read fecal slides and determine if intestinal parasites are present, collect urine samples, and provide basic care. Overall I have had personal experience caring for dogs/puppies, cats/kittens, goats, horses, hamsters, chickens/chicks, pigs, guinea pigs, rabbits, chinchillas, ferrets, chinchillas, birds, lizards, snakes, frogs, turtles, hermit crabs, and axolotls. I am currently a student in nursing school and am working as a part time server. I only have classes two days a week on Monday (6 AM - 6 PM) and Tuesday (8:30 AM - 11:15 AM) and work a couple hours 2 evenings a week, but can take off if needed for services. I like to learn about their daily routine and what they like to do for fun so and incorporate those things into our routine while clients are gone, so pets feel safe and relaxed while their family isn’t there.

“Tiffani is very knowledgeable about dogs and very professional and friendly! You can tell she cares about dogs and their welfare. We recommend Tiffani for your fur babies and look forward to having her take care of our Maverick again!”

“We have used Gabrielle's services on three occasions. She is very dependable and followed all our instructions consistently. She clearly loves animals and was very attentive to our cats during our absence. We have 4 cats and one of them is outdoors most of the time. She made sure to let us know when she had a sighting of him as he is very shy of others, and sent photos of him when possible. I highly recommend her for your pets need.”
