Cat Sitting Ironto

“Amalie was a great pet sitter to our two kitties! She spent quality time with them and gave lots of pets. She was great about communicating and we will absolutely book her again for future pet sitting needs. Thank you, Amalie!”

About: I am an avid animal lover. So when friends, family, and friends of friends have looked for pet sitters they come to me! I have experience with dogs as little as Chihuahuas to as big as Rottweilers and we all know who is more feisty ;) I work during the week but am available for walks after 5pm. I am available for boarding all day on the weekends or during the week if your pets are low-needs during the day! I have a private 3+ acre yard with a kenneled in area if needed. I have crates for my dogs and more than happy to crate yours if needed. I am willing to accommodate most needs/request as long as you are willing to communicate!

“Catherine was great! She was thorough, gave constant updates, and took the time to hangout with my cats even though she didn’t have to. Highly recommend!”

“We had such a great experience with Peyton! Luna is normally a very shy pet but was so comfortable with her, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was punctual, communicative, and incredibly kind, especially for fitting us in last minute over a holiday weekend. We truly appreciate how caring and dependable she was and would absolutely recommend her!”

“It was great working with Alexis. She checked in during the visits and made sure Harley was cared for! Would definitely rebook in the future. Thanks!”

About: I have nearly 2 years of experience as a kennel assistant at a Hayfield Animal Hospital caring for dogs, cats, and exotics of all sizes and personalities. I also was a part of the Edison Academy veterinary science class where we provided grooming services to clients. I’ve taken care of my own dog for 8 years and have pet sat for family and friends. I’m reliable, patient, and focused on making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I also helped train my dog as a puppy and have experience administering medications to pets at my work and will be getting experience as a veterinary assistant this summer. I currently work part-time as a kennel assistant, so caring for animals is already a big part of my daily life! I’m available most weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to make time to stop by and care for your pet. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company, I’ll make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own by making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owner is away. As a pre-vet student at Virginia Tech, my passion for animals runs deep. Just as I do with my own dog, in a client’s home, I follow their pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of attention and companionship. I also make sure pets have a clean, stress-free environment and would love to keep owners updated with messages and photos!

About: I've grown up surrounded by animals my entire life, and that hands-on experience is what truly sets me apart. I was raised with three cats (2 indoor, 1 outdoor), caring for them from kittenhood all the way through end-of-life care, including demanding daily routines and administering medication. I also have two dogs of my own: a Mini Australian Shepherd I raised from a puppy and personally trained. He’s so smart he keeps me on my toes, which means I know exactly how to handle high-energy, high-drive breeds and the escape artists of the dog world. The other is a large pitty mix we adopted at age two who came to us with leash pulling, reactivity, excessive barking, and rough play habits, all of which I've worked through and successfully managed. I know how to confidently handle dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Beyond cats and dogs, I've owned two guinea pigs, a hamster, and fish, so I understand the specific and often overlooked needs of small pets too. I've also assisted my sister in fostering cats, many of whom were shy, post-surgical, or required medication and special feeding instructions, so I'm completely comfortable with pets that need a little extra patience and TLC. Most recently, I pet sat a kitten over spring break 2026, and I'm always happy to sit for other pet owners' animals as well. As a sophomore in Alpha Chi Omega, I bring the same reliability, respect, and communication to pet sitting that I bring to everything I do. I treat every pet as if they were my own, follow your routines to the letter, and love keeping owners in the loop with regular updates, photos, and videos, as often as you'd like. If you're looking for someone experienced, trustworthy, and genuinely passionate about animals, I'm your person! I currently only have one exam left, so my schedule is essentially wide open! I'm in Blacksburg and available May 9–12 and May 16–22, with virtually nothing on my plate during those windows. Whether you need someone for a full house sit, multiple check-ins throughout the day, early morning visits, or late night drop-ins, I can make it work. Flexibility is my strong suit right now, so don't hesitate to reach out no matter the timing or frequency! I'm happy to care for pets both in my home and in yours! For in-home sitting and visits at your place, I'm completely comfortable following whatever routine, rules, and setup you have in place, your home, your way. If you'd like your pet to stay with me, I welcome that too! Just note that I live in an apartment, so I don't have a fenced-in yard, but my complex has a dog park and is surrounded by beautiful neighborhood nature trails that are perfect for walks and exploring. I'd also ask that you send everything your pet needs along with them (crate, food/water bowls, bed, toys, leash, etc.) so they have the comfort of their own familiar belongings, which is honestly better for them anyway!

“Leah offered exceptional care for my kitty throughout my stressful trip that was scheduled last-minute. I had quite particular requests like daily supplements and health monitoring, which Leah handled and frequently communicated with me in detail. This never was an expectation, but she even spent more than the 30-minute visit duration to make sure that my kitty’s needs were met. When I came back home, my kitty was less stressed than she usually gets after my trips. As I am very new to pet sitting services, I saw six reviews on her sitter profile and assumed she was a relatively new sitter. Later during the meet and greet, I found out that she actually was a very experienced sitter who has her own established network of local clients in and outside of Rover. I felt very heard and comfortable throughout the meet and greet, and could tell how much she genuinely cares for animals and prioritizes our pets’ well-being no matter how difficult or time-consuming some tasks could be. If you choose to book with her, you will feel the same assurance and relief that I felt when first I met up with her.”

About: Hello! My name is Hayley and I am an animal lover of all kinds. I had a chihuahua for 14.5 years until I had to say goodbye to him in august of 2024. Since then I have found joy in helping others take care of their furry family members. My Pedro was special needs so I am comfortable giving meds or helping with disabled animals as well. I promise to take care of your babies just like they are my own! Same day bookings and short notice bookings will be dependent on my full time work schedule as I work 3 twelve hour night shifts a week but please always reach out as I may be available! I am also willing to pet sitting for other animals like chickens, hedgehogs, etc. Just ask!! I am a full time night shift nurse so my schedule is crazy but allows me to spend the days with your pet. I am also able to get several days in a row off and spend 24/7 with your pet, if scheduled within enough time! If selected, I would treat your baby as if they are my own and would go above abd beyond in caring for them. I am unable to bring pets to my home but am more than happy to care for them in the comfort of their own homes.

About: When it comes to dog care, I've got it covered! From energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs, I’ve spent years perfecting my pup-pleasing skills. I'm a pro at administering medication, keeping coats shiny with basic grooming, and ensuring tails are always wagging. My dedication to tailoring care to each dog’s unique needs is unmatched - no paw left behind! With me, your furry friend will receive the utmost love and care. As a dedicated pet sitter and full-time college student, I've crafted a paw-fect schedule to balance my studies with the needs of your furry friends. I'm always ready to give your pets the care and attention they deserve, offering early morning visits, evening visits, and overnight stays throughout the week. And when the weekend rolls around, my schedule is wide open for tail-ored care. No matter what your pet's routine looks like, I'm excited to work with you to create a purr-sonalized care plan that keeps those tails wagging and kitty purrs going! Ensuring the safety, trust, and comfort of both pets and pet owners is my top priority. Although I'm unable to welcome furry friends into my own home, I'm more than happy to visit your pets in the comfort of their familiar surroundings, where they feel most at ease. When caring for pets in your home, I pledge to maintain a clean and organized environment, keeping any designated areas tidy and secure. I respect your privacy and personal space, and I take my responsibility as a pet sitter seriously. You can trust that I will treat your home with the utmost care and attention. My goal is to create a safe, nurturing atmosphere where your pets can thrive, and I look forward to providing the best possible care for your beloved companions.

“Thanks so much for doing the drop-in to meet the dogs prior to my upcoming trip!”
