Cat Sitting Highland

About: I was an ER vet in NM, CA & IL for 28 years. Rehab vet for the last 12 years. Semi-retired now. All the skills except training. I'm currently semi-retired. No more 12 hour work days. No more 6 day work weeks. But I still want to do what I love doing around dogs and cats and their owners. I have a cat named Oliver. He needs medication twice a day, so I will need to go check in on him while pet sitting. I'm also a night owl if you need someone later in the day.

About: I have always had a love for animals and enjoy spending time caring for them! I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and responsible to look after your pets. I am patient, attentive, and always make sure each pet gets the love and attention they deserve. I am happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping up with their daily routines. I also understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I do my best to make sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away! I am currently a college student and also work part time, but I make sure to manage my schedule so I have time for pet care! I enjoy spending my free time with animals and am happy to work with pet owners to find times that fit both of our schedules. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I always do my best to be reliable, communicate clearly, and make sure they receive the care and attention they need! I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, so I always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved! When caring for pets in their owner’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routines and any specific instructions provided. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I want every pet to feel happy and cared for. I also make sure to respect my client’s home and keep everything clean and organized. I am more than happy to send pictures and updates throughout my visits so owners can feel comfortable knowing their pets are in good hands!

“Chloe did a great job with my pups! Communicated extremely well, was prepared, and super friendly.”

“Susana was fantastic! Beforehand, she came over for a meet and greet and was great with our dog and cat. They were well cared for the day of the drop-in and she took great care of our senior dog and her medication needs. We are absolutely looking forward to being repeat clients.”

Nathan B.

“Tony did a great job with our dog and we would absolutely book with him again. He was very kind, clearly loves animals, and made us feel really comfortable leaving our dog in his care. Communication was excellent and he was quick to respond and kept us updated, which we really appreciated. He also left our place well taken care of. Overall, we had a really positive experience and we’d highly recommend Tony to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

About: I have been caring for dogs for most of my life and have 3 years of experience pet sitting for friends, family and community members. I have experience with various dog breeds at all different life stages, all with widely varying needs. I truly love connecting with, being with and caring for animals and derive great satisfaction from developing loving relationships with furry friends. With me, you can rest assured that your loved ones are taken care of with attentiveness, kindness and reverence. I work part-time and am typically unavailable from 1-6pm Monday-Friday. Outside of that time I am happy to be with and care for your loved ones! I only pet-sit in other's homes due to having my own pets. I love people just as much as animals, and as such, do my best to respect other's space, property and boundaries. I abide by campground rules in life meaning I do my best to always leave a space just as I found it, if not better off. I believe communication is very important and I like to connect with clients to discuss all expectations and boundaries in regard to both their animals and their home.

About: From larger dogs to lizards, guinea pigs, and cats, every animal best friend deserves to be treated like family. I have spent many years volunteering at shelters and animal rescues, dog walking, and pet sitting for family and friends. I understand firsthand what it takes to care for animals with specialized diets and daily medication needs. My own cats require a bit more as they enter their senior years, so i understand how much patience it can take. That said, I know how important it is to maintain a routine, especially when your animal best friend misses you. I work a full-time remote job for a wildlife conservation nonprofit, which gives me the flexibility to stay with your best friend all day if you're interested. I'm happy to go above and beyond for your best friend, whether you're taking on family responsibilities, taking that much-needed vacation, or just need someone to stop by while you're away for a long day. I can't wait to connect with you and meet your pet best friend. I work a full-time remote job with a wildlife conservation non-profit. That said, my daily schedule is fairly flexible and can even include staying with your pet during the workday to keep them company. Weekends are also fairly flexible, although I try to make the most of my time with family and friends. So, I likely won't be able to spend the entire day with your pet as I would be during the weekdays, but I will still spend quality time with them when requested, especially if requested far enough in advance that I can schedule it into my weekends and around family. I make environmental safety a priority. I follow all precautions and safety guidelines you requested and avoid anything that could create a hazard or unsafe situation for your pet. I am familiar with cat CPR and the steps to take if you find a cat choking. These precautions also include saving your vet's contact information and finding the nearest emergency vet to remain prepared for any situation. If you request outside time, I will do so only in a secure location to minimize the risk of your furry friend getting lost or injured. My youngest cat (7 years old), has a few hours of supervised time in our fenced yard every morning. She also wears an AirTag collar whenever we aren't home or if she's in our yard, in addition to supervision. I have extra AirTags I can attach to your best friend's collar (or I can bring an extra collar) for additional monitoring while you're away, if you are interested.

About: I'm a university student, my ultimate goal is vet school. In my family and among my friends, I have always been known as the animal lover. To me, this is more than just a side job; it's more like the payment is just a bonus, but the pets are what make me want to be there. I myself have a husky and a bulldog, and in the past, a pitbull. I understand all types of personalities and love each of them. Im a student at university of redlands. I have a short window for short requests 9:30am-1:00pm mondays and wednesdays but after 3pm im completely free. Tuesdays and Thursdays im typically at my busiest until 6pm and friday-sunday im the most free. If you have any questions or want to ask for exceptions just ask. Im in a dorm but I have no roommates and the campus in very pet friendly. I plan on walks around the campus and to park (with permission) and in my room they are welcome to rest, eat and play. My plan will vary depending on instructions from owners.

About: Hello! My name is Kristen and I am 42 years old. I have 17 years experience with my own cat who is still thriving in his golden years. In my mid 20s, I wanted to be a veterinarian and I nearly completed Mt. SAC’s Vet Tech program but life took me elsewhere. Over the last 6 years, I have been the go-to sitter for my friends and families dog packs. I love walking, lounging and playing so whatever your baby needs I can do! I’m currently pretty open as I’m taking time from working. I have a gig most evenings but free all day and have a lot of flexibility so please feel free to ask! I would not be able to house your baby, but would be comfortable coming to yours. Unfortunately, until my cat passes on (😭), I can not offer overnight care.

About: I have a flexible schedule since I work from home. I can do most days and times except late evening as I make dinner for family every night. You can trust me to care for your cats and attend to their needs. Feeding, grooming, play time , comfort and talk time with patience and care.

About: Dogs and cats have always been a part of my home life since I was a child. I have raised puppies and kittens and currently live with my dog Willow and my cat, Monkey. I walk and hike frequently with y dog, and I am able to care for high energy dogs. I have a full-time job that allows me to work three days a week. The other four days a week I have a lot of flexibility to make myself available to care for your pet. I have a fenced yard, a pet, friendly home, and a lovely white Swiss Shepherd, who loves other animals. Anytime dogs are in my yard, I am always outside supervising them. They are just like my kids.

I follow feeding schedules, administer medications if needed, and do my best to keep your pet’s routine consistent so they feel comfortable and secure. My goal is for both you and your pet to have peace of mind. I treat every dog and cat as if they were my own and strive to make their stay feel like a second home.

About: I’ve been working with my friends over the past few years with her rover dogs and I’ve had a lot of fun with them. I also had my own dogs over the years. We had our sweet Chihuahua Chuy for over 14 years and I had my dear German Shepard Duke for 11 years. I work Monday-Friday since I teach at SBCUSD. I am available weeknights and weekends for in house care. Let me know your schedule/needs and I’ll work with you :) I can drop in and take care of your pets and I can board your cat. I have 4 cats at home, but I have a separate room where I can board your kitty that is divided so my cats won’t bother :)

“Grace did a very good job of taking care of my 2 boys. Very thorough and thoughtful. I'll definitely reach out again when I go out of town.”
