Cat Sitting in Louriston

About: Hello, my name is Kristina and I would love to become a pet sitter for you. I grew up in a family where animals were always a big part. From horses to dogs to cats, we always had furry friends around. I also grew up in a family where we were taught to take responsibility and care for our animals so I learned pretty young all the important things related to animal ownership. Some of the skills I possess are the ability to care for both puppies and older dogs. I have owned both and know that each has their own needs. I am also willing to administer medications and am a very observant person so I notice when things may not be quite right. I grew up with a veterinarian in the family and he taught me what to look for and what to do in case there is a problem. My goal is to make the time I spend with your pet comfortable for both them and you. As a pet parent, I know it’s tough to leave your four legged friend behind and I want you to be at ease about it. I currently work full time but work during the day so I have plenty of time during the early mornings and evenings to care for your pets. I would make sure to fit an extra-long play session in at night so that they can wear off that energy. Currently, I am not set up to care for other pets in my home as my older dog prefers her own space. As I know from experience with my own dog, animals are more comfortable in their home because it is more normal. My goal for caring for your animals in your home would be to give them as much normalcy in their routine as I can. I also would respect your home as it can be a bit strange letting someone come into it while you are gone. And of course, I would send as many pictures and updates as you want.

“Hannah is such a caring pet sitter! She loved up on our animals as we would and it was so reassuring to know that they were in good hands while we were away. Hannah communicated well with us before we left, as well as while we were gone, sending us pictures of our animals frequently, which we really appreciated!”

About: I am a parent to 6 cats and 1 dog. I had 3 dogs but 2 recently passed after 12 and 14 years. I love all creatures! I feed the stray cats and opossums in our neighborhood. I work at a special needs/behavioral school and we’re off for the summer. My availability is open and my schedule is flexible. I’m available morning and night. I care for pets with the same love and attention I would give my own. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible whether that means regular walks, feeding times, play sessions, or quiet cuddle time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s space. I stick to their feeding, walking, and medication schedules, and always keep pets company so they don’t feel lonely while their family is away. Communication is key, so I send regular updates and photos to keep you reassured and connected. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and comfort are my top priorities!

About: Ever since I can remember I have adored animals. I have always been the person who would go over to a friend's house and end up sitting by their pet the whole time! When I became old enough, I started volunteering at my local animal shelter and pet sitting as much as I could. At the shelter, I walked dogs, spent time playing with cats and kittens, and helped clean kennels and cages. I have a senior dog and senior cat that I have had their whole lives so I have extensive experience raising and training pets, as well as experience with senior animals. I also have a rabbit so am familiar with different kinds of pet care as well! I am currently unemployed, though I do have potential offers in the works, so for now I have full availability! I will update my availability as it changes. Due to having 2 senior pets that hate all other pets but each other, I am unable to offer boarding at this time. However, I will provide any sort of care necessary for your pets in your homes! I am very good at following directions if you have a list for me, but I am also good at just knowing what goes into caring for pets, such as watching for potty cues and noticing when they need mental or physical stimulation.

About: I’ve taken care of my own pets as well as neighbour's occasionally for about 5 years! I feed, bathe, and exercise my pets as needed. I have also taken care of other animals, such as guinea pigs, turtles, bunnies, and cats! I am very flexible! I just graduated high school and looking for a temporary summer job before I move off to college! I can work Sunday-Friday anytime from 7am-5pm! I have two friendly outdoor dogs, as well as a big outdoor dog kennel if they needed to be separated. I also have a smaller cage to keep your fur baby inside if needed!
