Cat Sitting in Lahaska

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have been lucky to spend my life caring for them in many different ways. I’ve grown up with dogs, cats, and bunnies, so being around animals feels completely natural to me. I currently work at an animal shelter, where I care for pets with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and needs. This experience has taught me how to read animal behavior, stay calm in new situations, and provide patient, compassionate care, especially for pets who may be shy, nervous, or adjusting to a new environment. In addition to shelter work, I’ve also worked at a doggy daycare, gaining hands-on experience with group play, structured routines, and safe supervision. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm presence, I tailor my care to what makes them feel most comfortable and happy. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize safety, communication, and trust. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I’m committed to giving you peace of mind, and your pet lots of love. :) Pet care fits easily into my routine, as I have a flexible schedule and am available most days between 8:30 AM and 5 PM. I plan my day around pets’ needs to ensure consistent, attentive care. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I take the time to learn each pet’s needs, preferences, and personality, from feeding schedules and walks to playtime, medication, and cuddle preferences. Because I work at an animal shelter and have experience in a doggy daycare, I’m attentive to behavior, safety, and stress signals. I provide calm, patient care and adjust my approach based on each pet’s energy level and comfort. I make sure pets get appropriate exercise, mental stimulation, and plenty of affection. In a client’s home, I respect the space and keep everything clean and consistent. I also send regular updates and photos so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away. My goal is always to create a positive, low-stress experience and treat every pet as if they were my own.

“Katie was wonderful. Our cats were happy and content when we arrived home, and she did a great job following our requested instructions. She was always responsive to any communication I sent. We will certainly book Katie again.”

About: I have 3 older extra large dogs, 1 young medium dog, and 1 senior small dog. I’ve also had cats in my family. I’m used to caring for different sizes, ages, and energy levels, from slow walks with seniors to keeping up with younger, more active dogs. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, and just making sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I work part time from 12–3 on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, but my schedule is flexible and can change. Outside of those hours, I’m available mornings, evenings, and weekends, which gives me plenty of time to give pets consistent care, walks, feeding, and attention. I’m able to adjust my availability when needed. At my home, I have a large fenced yard where my dogs can safely play and spend time outside. I walk, feed, and play with them daily, and make sure they stay on a consistent routine. I’m very attentive to their needs and always make time for exercise, enrichment, and care throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible. I make sure they are fed on time, have fresh water, get walks and playtime if needed, and feel comfortable and safe in their environment. I’m patient, reliable, and always treat every pet like my own.

“Talia was great- communicated well, took a bunch of pictures for us, showed up on time, and our cat loved her. Will definitely use her again!”

“We absolutely are so grateful that our two babies (cats) were in such good hands during our 8 day vacation. Elisa stayed in contact everyday, posting pics and responding to texts. It made our trip that much better not having to worry that our babies were lonely. We are definitely booking Elisa again!!!”

“This was the first time we used Christina, but it will most certainly not be the last. She paid such incredible attention to our two cats— and did everything we asked of her and then some. She took excellent care of them, offered to take packages in off the porch, she even offered to bring our garbage cans in! :-) Christina is outstanding and we can’t recommend her highly enough. THANK YOU!”

“Thank you Wendy for spending time with our pups! They always enjoy your company! We love all the photos and updates you provide. See you next time!”

“Sarafina did a great job caring for my cat, Lawrence! He just needed daily drop-in visits and she sent lots of photos. She stopped by beforehand to make sure she knew exactly what he needed and was friendly and knowledgeable! She did an excellent job with my instructions and gave him plenty of playtime while she stopped in. I highly recommend Sarafina for any of your pets needs!”

About: I have had pets my whole life. I have had cats most of my life, I love them. I have walked and pet sat for many dogs before. I helped out neighbors and family friends. I am free most days of the week. If I am busy during the day I have an appointment, but I’m usually not doing anything. I cannot work weekends as I am usually busy. I live in a small studio apartment in Doylestown, with my girlfriend and two cats. It is a tight space, but we are comfortable and definitely happy.

About: Animals have always been part of my life. I cared for my beloved Miniature Pinscher, Maycee, for 15 years, from her puppy days through her senior years, so I understand the full range of a dog’s needs as they grow and change. These days, I share my home with two large, gentle sighthounds (a Saluki and a Silken Windhound) and a playful young cat, so I am comfortable with multiple pets and a variety of personalities. What sets us apart is that we are a mother and son team who genuinely love animals and enjoy caring for them together. My 13-year-old son Julian is gentle, calm, and observant with pets, especially high energy dogs or animals that need a little extra patience. He is eager to gain experience now so he can eventually run his own pet care business when he turns 18. I bring years of direct experience, from senior care to leash training and caring for multi pet households. Together, we create a safe, peaceful environment where your pets will be treated with the same love and attention we give our own. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because animals are already a big part of our lives. We’re available in the mornings and afternoons after 3PM, which makes us a great fit for daytime walks, check-ins, or playtime. I’m also available in the evenings, as late as 9:30PM, for dinner visits, medications, or just some comforting company before bedtime. As a mother-and-son team, we’re flexible, reliable, and happy to work around your pet’s schedule to make sure they feel safe, seen, and well cared for. We care for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. Whether it is a drop-in visit, a walk, or extended care, we always follow your pet’s usual routine including meals, potty breaks, walks, medication, and play. This helps ensure they experience as little disruption as possible. We treat your home with respect and your pet like family. My 13-year-old son Julian joins me for many visits and brings a calm, friendly energy that animals naturally respond to. I provide supervision and structure while he gains hands-on experience with the goal of one day running his own pet care business. You can count on us to be reliable, communicative, and attentive. We are also happy to help with light household tasks during your time away, such as collecting mail, watering houseplants, or tending to gardens. We will check in with updates and photos so you feel confident that your pet and your home are in good hands.

About: I’ve been a huge animal lover and taken care of animals since I was about 14 years old. I have fed, walked, and spend time playing with dogs and cats of all ages.

I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I work from 7am to 5 pm monday-thursday every week, but I’m available most evenings and have open availability from Friday through Sunday. This allows me to spend quality time walking, playing with, and caring for pets. I have a fenced yard with plenty of space indoors and outdoors for animals to roam freely. I treat every pet like my own by providing a safe, calm environment and making sure they feel comfortable, well cared for, and loved while their owner is away.

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and have always had multiple dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable with different breeds, sizes, and personalities. Over the years, I’ve dog sat and house sat for multiple families, handling everything from daily walks and feeding schedules to overnight care and keeping pets on their normal routines. I’ve also worked closely with a professional dog trainer, which has given me a strong understanding of dog behavior, structure, and how to handle different temperaments. Including high-energy dogs and those that need a little extra patience and attention. I’m experienced with puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, and I’m comfortable with things like basic training reinforcement, administering medications if needed, and adjusting care based on each dog’s individual needs. In addition to pet care, I’m extremely responsible, respectful of your home, and detail-oriented. I have experience in house management as well, so I’m happy to help keep your home tidy, bring in mail, water plants, and make sure everything is in order while you’re away. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved, while giving you complete peace of mind. I currently have very open availability and can be flexible to meet your pet’s needs! I’m available 24/7 for bookings through May 11th, which allows me to provide consistent care, attention, and companionship throughout the day and night. Starting May 11th, I will be working part-time, but I will still have strong availability for pet care and house sitting, including mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m committed to maintaining your pet’s routine and making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping your pet comfortable by maintaining their normal routine and environment.

About: I have always loved animals ever since I was a kid. Pet sitting is one of my favorite side gigs as I am a full time teacher. I have pet sit for numerous families over the last decade. I make sure to treat your pets as if they were my own as I would want somebody to do the same while watching my dog. As I am a full time teacher, I will make sure that you are okay with my work schedule and we can also figure out a plan that works best for your pet. I am willing to do what is needed to ensure that your pet is taken care of. I make sure I follow the instructions of the owner to ensure that the pet is being taken care of fully. With this I make sure that your space is also taken care of as well by leaving it exactly the way you left it, if not better.

“This was the first time I used Danielle and would absolutely recommend!! She took great care of my little girl, Luna, and went above and beyond in spending time with her. She kept me informed with photos and the house was as tidy when I returned as when I left it. Will definitely be using in the future...”

“Victoria is wonderful and I will have her again. She is kind, considerate, responsible and kept active with my dog. She also was able to arrange to come when I was very last minute in need. Excellent and very sweet with Sadie.”
