Cat Sitting in Hurlbut

“As always, Berenice is reliable; her care for our cat shows in the pictures and videos, but mostly the way she communicates his mood! It's relieving to know she is taking care of our pet and home!”

“Amanda was great as usual! Very reliable, detailed and prompt communication and lots of pics to make us feel better about being away from our cats.”

“Michelle was the best Rover ever! She came with extensive experience with animals at the Humane Society, which is just what Spirit needed. Spirit was a rescue and although very well adjusted to her new home, having the most experienced and loving caretaker. At our meet and greet, Michelle asked about all of her needs, medical and how to play with her. She was an instant friend with organic buffalo treats on our meet and greet. In our week away we got daily updates with wonderful pictures of Spirit doing her favorite things from eating to playing with her favorite toys. The bubbles, the balls and her wand. She was a happy well fed cat while we were gone. She even turned up the heat on a cold day in Forestville. Michelle was a fantastic Rover and Spirit and her family were very grateful to have fo”

“Naya is an incredible carer for my two cats! They were so comfortable with her (as am I) !!! Great communications, reliable, warm and caring. Highly recommend Nyah!”

“Penelope cared for my senior spaniel/terrier mix when I was away in Taiwan for three weeks. it was wonderful to see daily updates and picture of my best bud, Bucky getting some good walks and ear scratches! he gets medicine for a chronic ear infection so she made sure to update me there as well. Thank you for the great care Penelope!”

“William was super easy to communicate with and very responsive to our cats’ special needs!”

“My dog is one of those unfriendly dogs who gets very anxious when they meet new people. With Carolina, she did not show any signs of it. She immediately fell in love with Carolina and always happy to see her.”

“Clair is the best! Trusting someone with our baby has been tough, and she makes us all feel comfortable every step of the way. She also pays attention to important details and is flexible and reliable.”

About: A lifelong animal lover, I have cared for dogs, cats, and other pets for over 20 years. For the past decade, I have worked professionally in the animal care field, with most of my time spent in animal shelters caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, reptiles, and more! Working with shelter animals has given me a huge education on how to approach scared or stressed animals, so I can work with dogs and cats that aren't comfortable with new people, and go at their pace to ensure a smooth transition. Working in a shelter environment has given me a solid foundation in canine and feline behavior and enrichment which will allow me to provide more specialized care to your pets. I am also working towards a Professional Dog Training certification with Karen Pryor Academy, which is a school with a focus on positive reinforcement-based dog training. I hope to be certified near the end of 2025. I currently have a flexible schedule and can work with you to meet your and your pets' needs! I am happy to accommodate schedule changes as much as I am able to. I am only offering dog walking and drop-in pet-sitting services at this time. I am happy to work within your boundaries to ensure safety and security for all.

“Luna was wonderful.”

“Alexis took great care of our cat while we were away. On time visits, kept litter area tidy but most of all gave our pet friendly playful visits. Great service!”

“Casey was a wonderful sitter for my senior kitty. She followed all instructions and played with her and sent reports and photos often and that really put my mind at ease. My cat seemed glad to see me but not overly needy. I would definitely use Casey again!”

“I highly recommend Josh to care for your pet! He has dogsit for me multiple times, caring for my dog, Balou. Balou is a high-energy breed and very smart so he needs a lot of exercise and constant training. Josh was very attentive to Balou's needs. He was genuinely loving, active, and firm with Balou (and is with any pet really). Josh took him on bike rides, walks, and hikes and awarded Balou with ample play and cuddle time. Josh will do more for your pet than just feed them. He is trustworthy and reliable. And person to person, Josh is awesome!! He has exquisite taste in food, coffee, and beer. He is an active rockclimber and a bicycle enthusiast. He has good hygiene and nice hair to boot. You want Josh to care for your dog, I promise. ”

“Tim has taken care of our dog Toskey (65lb lab mix) on several occasions. Whenever we pick Toskey up, you can tell she has had a great time and has been well cared for. Tim has a genuine understanding of canines and a passion for their care. Some people/places provide safety for your dog and you accept the service at that. Tim goes above and beyond in the way he treats all dogs as if they were his own. I would not hesitate for a second to to put the well being of our love in Tim's hands. ”

“Kathleen has a gift when it comes to animals! I’m convinced that my pets love her more than they love me. She had sat for/walked my dogs and my cat, and my experience with her has been nothing short of amazing. She is attentive and compassionate, and my pets are always sad to leave her after they’ve been in her care. All three of my pets are senior citizens with special needs, and she is very skilled at dealing with their various needs and administering their medications. Beyond this, she is reliable, trustworthy, and communicative. I highly recommend her, and I would trust her with my pets again without question!!”

“Kyle was kind, communicative, and spent a lot of time caring for our animals. Even our cat who has extreme stranger danger warmed up to him. Kyle sent cute pics regularly and we were grateful to him for that. Your animals are in good hands with Kyle.”

“Annalisa is the most loving animal mother I've ever known and has always treated my animals, and everyone else's, with the care and attention she offers to her own. She's an upstanding and exceptional member of society who uplifts every space she enters. I know that if Annalisa is caring for my furbabies, that they are in just as good of hands as if I was there myself. In addition to being caring and thoughtful, Annalisa is also exceptionally smart, thoughtful, trustworthy and diligent. She is the first person I would want to watch my animals in my home if I can't be there myself.”

“She’s perfect!!!! Our cat loves her☺️☺️☺️”

“Holly is delightful and an excellent pet & house sitter. She’s gentle with the dogs but firm when needed and ultra responsible paying close attention to their health and food intake. She has taken care of our three golden retrievers a number of times. I would recommend her to anyone!”

“Elika was a wonderful choice for a taking care of my beloved cat and also housesitting. She was very respectful of the space, leaving it clean and washing her linens, and helped manage a leaky sink fiasco in my absence. She was a good communicator and sent us cute photos of our cat while we were away. I would definitely ask for her help in the future!”
