Cat Sitting Jonesville

About: I have had my own dogs and cats my whole life and currently have one dog and one cat. I worked at an animal shelter through high school with all kinds of dogs and cats and am comfortable with pretty much anything they can throw at me. Sometimes accidents happen and it’s ok and sometimes they get scared when new people are around which is totally understandable. I’m very comfortable being patient with any animal who needs a little extra love and understanding. I am currently a full time student and usually my day is pretty open on any day I don’t have class and in between my classes. I have two pets of my own who I get up early to take care of before class and always make sure I’m home to take care of after class. Weekends that I’m not visiting family are usually completely free as well. In a client’s home, the most important thing for any nervous pet will be respecting boundaries. I have a nervous girl dog and girl cat so I totally understand when they are a little hesitant to new people. But if they are sociable and want plenty of love I can absolutely give that too. I am very good at reading their body language and actions to determine what they want or need in the moment and will absolutely respect that their space if they want that.

“Lori is fantastic! She took such great care of our cats! I wasn’t worried about our pets while away. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again!”

“Sarah did a wonderful job! She was prompt with responses and thorough with pictures or any notes needed during her check ins. I had a very happy pup when we returned!”

About: I was 12 when my grandfather passed away, and in an attempt to fill that void, my parents got me my first pet, a Shih Tzu named Toby. Ever since, I’ve looked at pets as family, companions who bring comfort, joy, and unconditional love. Over the past year, I’ve cared for several of my friends’ dogs, spending nights with them, taking them on walks, and, of course, spoiling them with lots of love. It genuinely makes me happy to care for someone’s beloved family member, and I hope you’ll allow me the opportunity to care for yours! I work a full-time job Monday–Friday from 8 AM–5 PM, but my evenings are wide open for pet care. I also have most weekends off, giving me plenty of time to spend with your pet, whether that means going for walks, keeping them company, or giving them lots of love and attention. I live in an apartment complex with a dog park where we can have some fun and play if you’re comfortable with that! If not, we can always take a nice stroll around the neighborhood instead. I’m happy to follow whatever routine makes your pet feel most comfortable.

“Ariana was fabulous with my dog and had amazing communication throughout. I was worried sick to leave him alone, but I was relieved to know he was in great hands. I would definitely love to rebook Ariana and I would recommend her to anyone.”

“This was the first time we had left our cat, Annie, in someone else's care. Kat did a wonderful job of taking care of her and also taking the time to let Annie feel comfortable with her and to play with her. We would definitely want Kat to be our pet sitter again and highly recommend her.”

“Desiree was wonderful! One of our cats needs medical care twice a day and she was thorough with making sure he was taken care of!”

Christine K.

“She did a fantastic job taking care of my puppy during the drop in visits. She was attentive, followed all instructions and made sure my puppy was safe and well taken care of. 10/10 would recommend again”

Nicolai S.

“Took care of our two kitties and did a great job! Communicated with me in a timely manner when needed and made sure the cats were well taken care of. I’ll definitely book with her again!”

Jemma Rose D.

“Paula had good communication with me. She sent pictures. When I returned home Brody looked well and was happy. Usually if he did not have a good experience he would be whining. There was no whining.”

“As a business owner in the boarding and dog industry myself, trusting someone to stay in my home and care for my dogs was a huge deal for me — especially since our dogs have quite a few senior and special-care needs. Jonathan absolutely exceeded every expectation. We are definitely “those” pet owners with a million instructions wanting everything done just right, and he handled all of it with patience, kindness, and professionalism. His communication was incredible. Any time I reached out, he responded within minutes, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s very rare to find people you genuinely trust with your home and your animals, but he made the entire experience stress-free. The dogs were well cared for, happy, and all of their special needs were accommodated without issue. Honestly, this experience changed things for us. For the first time, we actually feel like we can travel and enjoy vacations without worrying the entire time. We’re already planning our next trip knowing we have a person we can truly rely on. Highly, highly recommend Johnathan Absolute gems.”

“Rachel does a fantastic job with my dog Andy. This weekend she took on the role of taking care of Andy as he recovered from a last minute surgery. He was able to walk with a little of assistance before we left for the weekend and we returned to a dog who only needed help to get up, but can now get around on his own. She did a wonderful job helping him through the rough spots of the weekend with some accidents, building strength back up, and encouraging him. So thankful for Rachel.”

About: I have been an avid animal care taker since childhood. Growing up on a farm in Oklahoma, I've seen animals of every shape and size- horses, cats, dogs, you name it! Spending time with animals is my own personal sanctuary. 🌞 Currently available at any time unless otherwise specified. I work as a private duty caregiver and times are not fixed for my schedule. Shoot me a quick message! I have a fenced in backyard! If your animal requires a crate, I can accomodate that as well. I do not mind animals in the bed, as long as they are potty trained! If I am visiting another home to care for an animal, I happily will spend extra time before/after walks and feeding to spend quality time with your animal. I believe bonding with the animals makes for a more pleasant experience!

“Hailee is so so patient with my dog! He is stand off is and she puts in a lot of effort to make him feel safe and comfortable. I appreciate her so much.”

Abie K.

“Victoria did a great job taking care of our two cats. She reliably texted me whenever questions arose, and the overall communication, as well as the actual sitting went as smooth as can be. I would recommend her to anyone who wants to know their pets in good hand!”

About: My brother and I work from home, so your fur baby will get plenty of love and attention throughout their stay! I’ve cared for dogs for over 10 years, to include caring for senior dogs through end of life care. During the day I’m a special education tutor, so have tons of patience and empathy! I’m comfortable administering medication, caring for hot spots or other treatments to vet orders, and keeping a watchful eye while you’re away! Part time tutor, part time studying for law school, so your pup will get plenty of belly scratches and one on one attention. My dog loves being around other four legged friends, so they will have a built in bestie to run around with (or just sit around with). I either work from home or have two hour sessions with my clients. My brother lives with me, so someone will almost always be around to let the dogs out and give them plenty of love and attention. I have a fenced in backyard, with one playful and sweet young dog who loves everyone she meets. We are a very dog focused household, and are in the process of installing a doggy door so the pups can go in/out as they please (when we are home, it will be locked when out running errands).

“Very thankful for Sierra! Showed up on time. Left everything tidy. Sent pictures of pups on multiple days. Would definitely recommend and will rebook with her :)”

About: Ive grown up with dogs, cats, horses, and various other types of animals. Additionally, I’ve worked as a kennel technician with dogs for over 2 years now. During this time I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs from big and small, energetic and calm, and confident or more on the nervous side. I’ve learned the best way to approach every type of dog and how to meet their needs. I go to college and work part time but I have breaks making it easy to stop by and assist your babies. I am in Gainesville full time and have a vehicle making it easy to get around town. I have a passion for approaching animals with love and patience. I think first impressions with animals are extremely important. I always want to make the interactions fun and without tension. I’m very understanding when it comes to fear aggression and anxious dogs. My top priority is to make them feel safe around me and respect their boundaries.

“Dogs, cats, and house all happy well cared for and loved on. This was our first time using Amanda and would happily use her again and recommend her to others.”

“Dominica really goes the extra mile to care for your dogs. She is a true animal lover and will treat your pet like her own. We have a difficult dog and she handled his bad behavior with patience and compassion I can definitely recommend her.”
