Cat Sitting in Hermitage

“Tori is such a delight. She eased our mind about our one problem child pup that likes to chew couches while we’re gone. She was fantastic and very timely on showing up as well as keeping us updated on what was going on. She sent lots of pics of all the kids and we felt very comfortable with her being in our home while we were gone. We will definitely use her again next month when we go out of state for a few days. Highly recommend.”

“Donna is FABULOUS! This is the first time she has done drop-ins for me & she was super communicative & so sweet! The dogs absolutely love seeing her! I will definitely be using Donna again! ❤️”

About: I aim to be your dog's new favorite person (after you, of course). I am a certified professional dog trainer with a specialization in timid and fearful dogs. I have worked with hundreds of owners over the last 5 years, helping them solve behavior issues from barking to pulling and stealing food off the table. Before that, I was a reptile hobbyist who bred Tokay Geckos, believe it or not (they're called the pitbulls of the gecko world because they bite and don't let go)! So hard-to-love animals are my bread and butter. As a behavior specialist and a certified trainer, I know how to act around any dog. Yes, even the really ornery ones. I am patient, I never yell, and if you have a doggie cam, you might catch some of the entertaining antics I pull to keep your dog safe and happy. I use the LIMA model - Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive. What this means is, I will never force your animal to do something they don't want to do. My goal is to build trust so that your animal will be able to adapt easily without you there and will learn to trust other humans as well. Because I am a behavior specialist, I know what *NOT* to do, so that you don't come back to a dog that was worse off than when you left! Oh, and I'm also an artist, so a sketch or portrait of your dog is not off the table! I love drawing pictures for my clients. When I'm not painting or cleaning, I'm either training my dog, or coaching people virtually to train theirs. I am currently working Wednesdays, Fridays & Saturdays as a virtual dog trainer, but Sun/Mon/Tue/Thur are up for grabs! My dog Jigen is a very well-behaved pup. We don't have a fenced in yard so I take her out on a leash, or use a tie-out with supervision. She eats her meals out of puzzle toys and she gets brushed every evening. I work on her nails twice a week to make sure she tolerates me clipping them. She is free to roam inside all day and night, but I do put her in the crate when we leave the house (just in case).

“Amanda was great. She was very attentive of our cats while we were on our trip and did an amazing job communicating.”

“Annalese was prompt and professional. Gave Beanie a good walk & attention!”

About: I have two dogs and a cat of my own which I've had for some time now. My youngest dog was taken in around 9 months and my oldest was a stray with lots of anxiety. I also have volunteered at Strayhaven for about a year, walking dogs and socializing cats. I'm capable of walking, playing, feeding, and helping with potty training or learning tricks. I'm a full time student with advanced classes so I spend a lot of time putting in the work for school. Aside from my sports season, I'm free most week days for walking and other care. I can only do overnights when I'm out of school. I can make meals, take them on walks, and play with them. I would love to help younger dogs socialize or learn basic tricks. I'm comfortable with working with anxious pets too.

“Amazing job watching our seven cats! This was the first time we had left them for an extended period of time, and we were very nervous about being away for so long. Meghan went above and beyond to make sure our babies were safe and cared for, and was super responsive to our requests and questions. We know who we’ll be booking for any future trips.”

About: I’ve been dog/pet sitting for nearly 20 years. I’ve handled dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds and have cared for a number of other animals including cats, ferrets, hamsters, bearded dragons, and even goats! While they are God’s creation, I am not a fan of snakes… I have a flexible, work-from-my-phone career so I can manage my schedule accordingly. I do quite a bit of travel and can be available in different cities when I’m traveling! I do not care for pets in my home at this time. In my clients’ homes, I follow their protocol to ensure the animal is comfortable while their person is not home.

About: I have grown up with all kinds of animals my whole life! I’ve dog sat for many people and I have rescued kittens. I love animals! I have three cats and one dog. I have a small yard for room to play. I always make sure my clients dog is within my sights while they stay with me or I am at a clients home. I don’t feel comfortable letting a clients dog run around doing things I don’t know about. I’m in clinical school therefore I am gone at least 8 hours a day during the week. My partner is home during most days however. Your pet would not be unsupervised while staying with us. I never let any pet out of my site while I’m staying with them or they’re with me. I’m very careful and pay close attention to your pets needs.

“She was nice, on time, and did a great job trimming my cats nails”

About: Pets are family, and they deserve to be treated like family. I have doggy sat for a family friend for 3yrs, Zoe, and Zarley. They go out 4 to 5 times a day, they get treats for going boo boo outside. We run around the apartment and play as much as my bones will let me. I am able to brush the furbabies every day, and multiple times a day if needed. I do talk to them like they can answer me…..😂😂. Animals understand more than we think they do. I love animals so much. I wish I could get one for me. But at this time, I am unable to afford one. I will not get any animal that I know I can’t pay for what they need. I was working up until 09/2025. I got hurt at work, and I’m unable to return. I am available 24/7 now. I have plenty of time to give ALL of my time to furbabies now. I have a full time job working midnights. I get off at 7am, but don’t usually go to sleep till around 10am. I do not work Friday nights. My part time job is just Mon., we’d., and Fri, from 9am to 1pm. I have every other weekend off. I always put fur babies first in my home. I play with them as often as I can. They are allowed on the furniture and bed. No matter what I am doing, I will stop to take them out, or play with them. I DO NOT give for babies ppl food, their little digestive system mite not be able to handle it. If there is something extra that you say they need, and you don’t have, I will buy it for them. I remove any and everything off the floors, so they cannot get in it. If there is a special diet that they have, I will just need written instructions on how to prepare it.

“Awesome experience! She was able to fill in and take care of my cat who needs medication! Such a lifesaver!”
