Cat Sitting Kittredge

“Tenja is fantastic! She did a great job looking after our two cats and I appreciated her updates and photos. We knew they were well taken care of, and we are looking forward to booking Tenja again in the future!”

About: Hi there! I'm Kat and I am looking to do some pet care! I am an animal lover at heart, and I know how hard it can be to find care for fur babies. I can do dog sitting for dogs of all ages and needs. For boarding, all I ask is that your dog is friendly so that they get along with mine. I have a 5 year old lab-great dane mix, and he is such a gentle giant. For sitting, I am happy to come to you! For walking, I can walk dogs of all ages and needs, and am happy to also take your dog for a run! Available any day, any time. I am a teacher and am currently on summer break, so I am free most of the time! Once school starts, my schedule will change a bit. For boarding in my home, I have a fenced in yard for potty breaks. I also make sure to walk my dog everyday at least once a day, and would do the same for you!

“Olga was incredibly kind and communicative, taking wonderful care of our shy, sweet kitty. She was extremely professional and made us feel at ease while we were away. We will absolutely be booking with her again!”

“Thank you, Hang for taking care of my kitty Jenni-Girl. I sent a request to Hang and she responded very quickly. She is friendly and easy to work with. I appreciate everything you've done. Thank you soo much!”

Josie M.

“Ashley is a wonderful pet sitter! She is always on time and I trust her in my home and with my kitty. She also takes amazing photos and provides adorable updates throughout the stay.”

“Ken is the absolute best! I had just moved in to town after taking a job in the area and had to leave for 2 weeks to attend a conference in Indiana. Ken met up with me not only once, but twice before he started dog sitting to ensure that my 5 year old German Shepherd was fully comfortable with the idea of Ken coming by to visit! Ken constantly kept me updated with messages and photos every time he’d check on my dog. There was a point in which my dog was running low on dog food. Ken informed me of this and went out to buy it on his own time! Even though this was the longest time I had ever had to spend away from my dog, Ken’s attentiveness and compassion displayed towards my pup reassured me that I chose the BEST possible person to watch my beloved friend while I was away!”

Coleman U.

“McKenzie did an incredible job taking care of our sweet cat! She gave thorough updates and sent plenty of pictures. She made sure to play with him and gave him cuddles when he needed them. We will definitely ask her to take care of our buddy again!”

About: Your dog gets a half-acre fenced yard on two acres, and a gate that opens straight onto open space and trail. No loading up in a car to find a walk, we step out the door and go. For a big dog with a real engine, that’s the whole difference. I have two labs of my own, a male and a female, both social and easy, so your dog has company and a pack to fall into rather than a crate and a quiet house. I’ve been boarding for friends and neighbors for 10, and I know what a bored 70-pound dog does to a living room, which is why exercise comes first here, not as a bonus. Good fit for: large breeds, working and sporting dogs, adolescents with too much energy, dogs who don’t do well kenneled. Not a good fit for: dogs who can’t be around other dogs, or who need to be kept separate. I’d rather say that up front than have anyone spend a bad weekend. I also offer dog walking and drop-in visits for locals who’d rather keep their dog at home. Same approach, a walk here means actual miles on real terrain, not fifteen minutes on pavement. Daily photos and a note, usually from somewhere on the trail. I work from home, so dogs aren’t alone for long stretches, I’m here through the day and the routine is built around that. Mornings start with a walk on the trail behind the house before I sit down to work. I leave the doors open so that dogs are able to go in and out of the fenced yard through the day while I’m at my desk, with a midday break for a longer outing. Late afternoon is the real hike, when my two labs go out and your dog goes with them. Evenings are quiet, everyone’s tired by then, which is the point. I do take calls during the day, so there are stretches where I’m at my desk rather than actively playing, but the dogs are with me, not shut away. Weekends are more of the same with longer hikes and no calls Containment: My yard is a half-acre fully fenced, on two acres backing to open space. Gates stay latched and I check them before any dog goes out. Dogs are never off-leash on the open space unless the owner has confirmed reliable recall and I’ve seen it myself on a long line first, otherwise we hike on leash, every time. In the house: Dogs are loose in the main living area with me and my two labs, not confined to a garage or basement. I have crates available if your dog is crate-trained or you’d prefer it, and I’m happy to keep whatever routine they already have. New dogs and mine are introduced outside on neutral ground before anyone comes in the house. Requirements: Up to date on rabies, distemper/parvo, and bordetella. I ask for your vet’s contact and a backup person who can make decisions if I can’t reach you. Wildlife: We’re in the foothills, so coyotes, bears, and mountain lions are part of the landscape. Dogs go out into the fenced yard supervised, not unattended, and I don’t leave food or water bowls outside. Nobody is out in the yard alone at dawn or dusk. If something goes wrong: I’ll call you first, but I won’t wait on a callback to get a dog treated. My work is in wildfire and emergency planning, so I keep an evacuation plan for my own dogs including crates, leashes, records, and a go-bag ready and any boarding dog is included in it if there is an emergency.

“Summerlyn is attentive and detailed and very clearly a warm and lovely animal person!! Very understanding and flexible when needs change which was a huge relief for me. 10/10 would recommend!!”

About: I've been a devoted dog lover since childhood when my mom would take in strays and rescues from the streets. I helped groom, train, love, and care for these sweet souls. Today, I work as a part-time substitute school teacher but find that I need more four footed companionship and outside time in my life, so I'd love to be your go to dog walker on my days off. I've always helped my friends and neighbors with their dogs (walking or pet sitting), and I'm good big dogs and little dogs. With 20+ years of teaching experience, you know that I have oodles of patience and consistency to rely on, and lots of caring and affection to give. Please let me help you give your pets the care and attention that they need when you're at work or on vacation! I'm working part time as a substitute teacher--this means that I generally work 3 days a week, and am often home by 3:30. I have afternoons available for longer walks and play-time. I am not able to board dogs in my own home, but in your home I can make sure that your dog or cat has the kind of love and care that they are used to whether they are an inside dog or outside. Walking is one of my favorite activities so I'm there to make sure that you're dog and myself are getting the exercise we need!

“Renee was amazing with my senior kitty! Her updates with photos reassured us he was doing well while we were away.”

“Checked in on our pups when we were out for a few hours. Great help! 10/10”

“There are so many good things to say about Sandy. She is the most thorough pet sitter we have ever used! Sandy kept in touch with us and made sure our three cats were safe and comfortable in her care for a whole week. She is very kind and trustworthy - a true animal lover! Don’t hesitate, just book Sandy!!”

“Dylan is incredibly reliable and kind to our dogs. He provides detailed updates and pictures after visits. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for peace of mind in regards to care for their pets.”

Janie F.

About: I have had dogs,cats,bunnies,chickens throughout my life. I know how to care for each one. I am a trusted and reliable handler with any family pet(s). Being a animal person is in my blood and I absolutely love it and enjoy caring for them. Currently I have a part time job. I also ride horses for friends that are away on trips. Together they don't pay my bills. Working with dogs and other animals for clients I have been thinking of doing for awhile now. It would be much appreciated to have you as my client and make this a career. I already have three dogs with me. Having any animals stay over at my house will not be an option at all. My dogs can be very wild and not the best behaved around new furry friends. For the safety of your pet and mine it would be best to dog sit over night at the clients home if preferred. Everything else is open.

“Leah is always amazing when she watches my crazy heeler, Chester when I work long shifts! She has been very flexible about scheduling drop in visits and always lets me know how the visit went. As an added bonus, her dog Aspen is super friendly (and after asking permission and doing a meet and greet), she sometimes brings her dog with her, which gives my dog some socialization and play time! I am totally comfortable trusting her with my pooch and know he's in good hands.”

About: I run a small business from home and have a flexible schedule. My two dogs love to play with other dogs and adjusts to both large and small dogs' temperaments. My wife and I enjoy being active and taking our furry guests on hikes and runs if they’re up for it. We've housed puppies and have taken care of older dogs as well. Whether your dog is just a puppy or an old timer, we'll do our best to make sure s/he has as wonderful a time as possible while you're out and about. We'll be sure to send photos of their good times as well! Last minute bookings are fine, just let me know what you need and I'll do my best to accommodate. Dogs are a natural part of the daily rhythm in our house. Our pups go one walks each morning and then throughout the day; usual total is ~4-6 walks. Adding another dog or two to the pack just makes it more fun. We take the utmost care of our pets health and will treat your pup likewise. If they need additional support whether diet, exercise or medications we’re happy to support!
