Cat Sitting in Hawthorne

About: I have experience caring for dogs of various sizes, ages, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, leash walking, playtime, basic training reinforcement, and administering basic medications if needed. I pay close attention to each dog’s routine, behavior, and comfort to make sure they feel safe and happy while their owners are away. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or calm and shy, I provide patient, loving care and treat every dog as if they were my own. Pet sitting fits well into my weekly routine. I work Monday–Friday from 9–5, which allows me to provide care before work, during my 1-hour lunch break, and after work. This schedule works well for morning feedings and walks, mid-day check-ins, and evening care and playtime. I’m also fully available on weekends, allowing for flexible scheduling, extended visits, and overnight care if needed. I make sure every pet receives consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. When caring for pets in their own home, I’m respectful, responsible, and attentive to both the pet and the space. I follow all instructions closely, maintain your pet’s normal routine, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I keep the home clean and secure, respect privacy, and provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. I treat every home and pet with the same care and consideration I would want for my own.

About: I can care for a wide variety of animals. Care will include lots of physical and mental stimulation, as well as anything else you’d like! Let me know if your animal(s) needs any additional care such as medication administration or needs to be kept separate from other animals, and I will be more than happy to accommodate your animal’s needs. There will also be an opportunity to become a private client to avoid the insane Rover fees, so you can save money and I get the full amount that you pay! (Currently, Rover takes 20% of my pay AND charges you even extra!) I do have full time school 3 days a week, so will be gone a good part of the day during those days. Dogs are required to be crated while I’m away. I will do my best to be flexible and use effective communication with all my clients. I have 2 dogs, a cattle dog and a golden retriever. I also have 2 cats at home as well. Let me know in advance if your animal(s) are reactive or aggressive to people or dogs. All dogs will have plenty of physical and mental exercise, and anything else that they need during the day. Bring toys, food, leashes, crates, and whatever else is needed at drop off.

“Samantha was a quick study, efficient, kind, and was able to touch my skittish cat at first meeting! I was so worried but she took my worries away and was so happy to get her reassuring words and pic while I was away. I was also happy to learn Sam is a local which provided even more assurance and even though I live a ways out she was willing to travel to me where others I contacted all said I was out of their area. I really liked her and my kitty Jack did as well, straightforward and got the job done. Thanks Sam, you were a life saver!”

About: I love all critters and have an especially soft place in my heart for the elderly and/or disabled. I started by volunteering for neighbors friends on trips or working 12 hours shifts, just to stay busy, and it was awesome to see how my daily visits helped their overall health over time. Visiting with critters is always the highlight of my day. I move slowly, carefully, speak softly, so my energy is a great fit for older or anxious animals. I love them all, and every step. Greeting, walking, playing, chilling, pets and massage, special diets, and I have no problem helping administer medicine or any extra special care that is needed. It would be an honor to be of service for you and your fur baby :) I am flexible and available, single, no kids, and also a home care worker. I only work 4 hour shifts, so pet care can very easily fit in and around my other work schedule. When I meet you and your pet, you can show me the care routine, and I will confirm that I understand every step. What works well is if the supplies are visible and steps are also written down and left somewhere I can refer to if needed. I will take photos to either text or email you while I am at your home with an update for each visit.

“Super receptive and sweet, spent the time to get to know my kitty even though he’s shy, receptive and responds quickly, totally made a repeat client”
