Cat Sitting in Independence

“This was my first time using Rover and Mya made the experience amazing! I will definitely be using her again. My dog is very shy and not good with strangers but Mya took her time to be patient and calming. My dog started warming up to her very fast and I belive dogs have a good judge of character ;)”

“Kate was amazing going above and beyond taking care of our pup! Thank you so much Kate! We will definitely have her care for our pup again! 💕”

About: I have a wide range of experience with dogs, cats, reptiles and small animals. I have owned cats, dogs, mice, rats, geckos, birds, fish, ferrets and rabbits. I currently have several cats of my own and they are treated like they are my kids. I have alot of experience with feral cats and cats with behavioral issues. I have a cat who is diabetic so I have experience in giving insulin shots. I also have experience with and own both FIV+ and FeLV+ cats. I have experience in medicating cats as well, as I have several on medication in my home. I work overnights Sunday through Thursday. I have my own cats and a few fosters, we have a set routine with breakfast and medications when I get home. In the evenings is playtime, social and cuddle time. Then before I go to work at night, they are all tucked in with a special treat before I leave. I like to stick to routine with my cats, it helps them feel safe and makes everything run smoother in a multi pet home. I am available in the evenings to help with your pet(s) Sunday through Thursday and on Fridays and Saturdays I have a very flexible schedule and can work with almost any times of the day/evening/afternoons. I also am available during holidays. I assure you your pet is safe in my hands. I do alot of work behind the scenes with friends in rescue and have alot of hands on experience with handling and caring for animals safely. My home environment is safe and clean. I am trust-worthy and kind, and I love all living things. I have to pass background checks for the type of work I do, so I have a clean background. I may be able to board cats on occasion under certain circumstances. If it is short term boarding, I have a nice sized bathroom that they could have the freedom of staying in there with me. I have leukemia positive cats in my home so this would keep them safely in their own area without exposure to my cats. They would have their own clean litter box and food bowls and lots of toys/and amenities will staying in the "Paula's luxury bathroom suite"!

“Kat is the best! Gives a lot of love and play to our energetic, young lab! Always sends pictures and updates so we have peace of mind :) highly recommend!”

“After my "meet & greet" w/Amy, I felt comfortable with leaving Gray Kitty in her care. When I got back home, everything was in good order & Gray Kitty seemed very happy and well taken care of. Amy did a great job, thank you!!!”

About: Hi there! I’m Anna, a lifelong animal lover and experienced sitter who knows how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs, or just cozy naps, I make sure they get all the care, play, and affection they deserve. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior sweethearts—and I always tailor my care to each dog’s unique needs. Safety, consistency, and communication are my top priorities, so you’ll always know how your pup is doing with plenty of photo updates and messages. Let’s make sure your dog feels right at home while you’re away! I do currently work full time but spend evenings and weekends at home. They will get plenty of love and affection while in our home. We have two huge dog toy bins for those who love toys! All animals will be treated like they are my own! We have a 6 foot wooden privacy fence with an huge back yard and an extra kennel if needed.

About: I have, alongside owning pets, cared for many within and outside of my family for 6 years now. I know to care for dogs, cats, big and small. I can only do it mostly on weekends or early mornings on any other day. My days off from my regular job are Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday so if you need anything on those days then I am your gal! We take care of many pets in our home. We have 4 cats, and 5 dogs, one including a standard poodle but they have plenty of room in and outside of the house so they can have fun and roam!

“Meggie is a hard worker & I definitely believe in the dream of being a dog trainer. My dogs were calm & collected during the visits. Meggie knows how to handle situations & make them right! Great with pets.”

“Emily is amazing! My cat was recently diagnosed with diabetes and she had no trouble giving my little man his shot as she has had a diabetic cat in the past. She also helped us last minute when our car broke down out of town and came by another time with little notice. I will be using Emily for all of my future sitter needs.”

“Michaela was so great while watching our cats. She was very communicative, and really made an effort to get to know our pets. Will be using her in the future!!”

“Kody took care of my two pugs for almost a month and he goes beyond what I ask him to do, he walks them late night and played with them after, he is also very easy to talk to, willing to do stuff that is not part of the job. Definitely someone I will be calling again the next time I will go out of town. Thank you very much”

“Kristen visited our baby boy for half hour on 2 mornings. I enjoyed getting the pics and rover cards. It was a good experience and helped ease my mind while we were away.”

About: I'm retired, so I'm available most of the time. I have worked with two different German Shepherd Rescues as a foster mom. I also volunteer at the local regional animal shelter. I have helped train many dogs over the years. I also have quite a bit of cat experience, as well as birds, fish (both salt and freshwater tanks) and reptiles, I enjoy cats, and find that they are all very unique. I enjoy being a pet sitter, providing safety and love for them while their parents are away. I offer FREE MEET & GREETS! (A Meet & Greet is necessary for the first visit, no exceptions). Also, I need 3 days advance notice in order to consider your pet for boarding. I have many reviews in my profile from past sitting jobs. Thanks I am retired and available as noted on my calendar. I make every attempt to feed dogs and cats at the same time as the owners. I find that keeping pets on a schedule helps them to feel safe and comfortable when their owners are away. My dog, Sky, is AKC "Star Puppy" and "Advanced Obedience" trained. I have a strong skill set for helping anxious dogs. I understand how to keep a pet engaged, both in general play and affection.

About: I’ve been known through my family and friends as a “dog whisperer”, and have had dogs in my care all my life! I’ve owned and taken care of my own senior dog for years, and am currently working with my new puppy. I have detailed experience with elderly dogs and dogs with medical needs. I can administer medications involving needles, and fulfill special food requests. Currently, I am a university student and I have a small part time job. However, I miss working with animals and my class schedule tends to be very flexible! In caring for a pet at your home, I treat it as if it was my own. I always emphasize to follow directions perfectly, and to treat your things with respect.

“Kristina was wonderful! She loved my dog and you could tell she loves all animals! My vacation was extended, unexpectedly, due to an hospital admission. and she even picked up the extra shifts which helped alleviate my stress immensely. So I highly recommend Kristina!”

About: I currently have my own pets that require varying levels of needs from upset tummies and picky eaters to highly anxious and severe food allergies: keeping your pet happy and healthy will be no different from the level of care my pets get at home! Medication schedules, allergies, or a full house of pets is no different from my day to day life! Before now, I have been in the Human Resources industry for 10 years, so you can also expect a highly optimistic, reliable, problem solver on your team! For house sitting, I stay home with your pets around the clock 💖 Please let me know if you can't find an affordable sitter for your loved ones and I'd be happy to find a solution that works for us! I currently can be very flexible and open! I'm available over the weekdays, weekends, and holidays as well! Let me know what you and your pets needs are and I'll always work to prioritize keeping you and your pets on the schedule you prefer! I believe the best care starts with trust. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level so they feel safe and at ease in their own environment. Whether it’s quiet patience, playful energy, or gentle reassurance, I meet every animal where they are to create a calm, loving space they can rely on too. Please let me know what your pronouns are too in your first booking request! It's completely alright if you'd like to leave it out 😊

About: I will treat your pet with the utmost respect and love. No one should have to spend time worrying about their pets when they are on vacation, I send or post regular photos and almost always have my phone with me for any question or concerns you may have. I have spent my whole life with pets, I also volunteer with rescues, drive freedom transports for dogs, and foster when needed. I can take care of most medical needs including some IV fluids (subcutaneous), post-surgical needs and injections if needed. I enjoy spending time with all sorts of animals through the last few years has been primarily cats. Feel free to check out my Facebook & Instagram page - A Series of Furry Events I work full-time M-F 9 to 5 in the Plaza area I get a. hour for lunch and can do drop-ins if necessary for potty breaks or meds I am the proud pet to some beautiful rescue cats, they have graciously allowed me to live in their beautiful home. My cats are indoor only cats so a lot of play time is always necessary things that stimulate their prey drive and allow them to expel excess energy are always important

“Lucas was great! Our shy pup offered a small kiss right away. We got wonderful updates and pictures with each visit and he was always on time. We will be using Lucas again, for sure.”
