Pet Sitting in Martinsville

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my experience and adaptability in caring for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs with special needs. I’m very patient, which is great for training puppies or helping older dogs with mobility issues or medical conditions. I also have a good understanding of basic obedience training, which helps me create a structured and positive environment for your pet. I’m comfortable with administering medications, managing dietary restrictions, and providing extra TLC when a pet is recovering from surgery or illness. Plus, I’m very communicative with pet owners, making sure to provide updates and photos so they can feel at ease while they’re away. I’m a full-time student at the College of Healthcare Professionals, attending both online classes and in-person sessions on certain weekends from 9 AM to 5 PM. Outside of these hours, my schedule is completely flexible, with availability throughout the week and most weekends. This gives me the opportunity to offer consistent and attentive care to pets while balancing my academic commitments. I have two super friendly dogs, Zoey and Chanel. Zoey can be a bit skittish at first, but once she gets a chance to sniff you, she’ll warm up and follow you around like she’s known you forever! Chanel is full of energy, sweet as can be, but a bit spoiled—she's known to whine if things don’t go her way. Rest assured, whether it’s at my home or yours, I can ensure your dog will be in safe, loving hands and treated like part of the family!

“This is Katie’s first time taking care of our cat and she did an excellent job! She was always on time (even early), great at communicating, and my cat always seemed very happy in her updates! We will definitely be contacting her again for our next trip!”

About: I have been taking care of friends and family’s pets for many years now. I also used to volunteer at the local animal shelter which helped to to learn about how to react and treat the different personalities in animals. I play volleyball and attend school at SFA university, but I have online classes so other than my practice times I am always free for your pet. When I am caring for your pets I will make sure they are having fun while not going past the rules you have set for them!

“Kathryn took excellent care of my cat. She was extremely responsible and reliable, and my usually shy cat really opened up to her and seemed to enjoy her company. I'd book Kathryn for petsitting again in a heartbeat!”

About: I grew up on a farm, where caring for animals was part of daily life, fostering my deep love for dogs and cats. With over 10 years of hands-on experience, I’ve learned to provide attentive, compassionate care for all types of pets. Currently, I’m pursuing a degree in forestry, which deepens my connection to nature and enhances my understanding of animal well-being. Whether it's feeding, walking, or just keeping your pet company, I bring a lifelong love of animals and a strong work ethic to every pet sitting job. I’m usually off Wednesday- the weekend and because I work nights my mornings are guaranteed free. I am currently in graduate school so to accommodate that schedule let’s work together! I have a fenced in yard if they are in need of home care and right now my house is fur baby free. We do not smoke or party so they will have a peaceful place to stay. I am also willing to walk your animal at any of our beautiful scenic parks here in Nacogdoches. Or provide whatever care you may need!

About: I have been an animal lover my entire life and have owned all sorts. I have been told I am the dog whisperer because strays and injured tend to find me. I rescue puppies, foster them and find them new homes. I am available most days mornings or lunchtime. Afternoons are normally my busy time but I am pretty flexible. I can help some weekends but prefer weekdays. Our dog Bentley sleeps with us and travels with us like family. He is also crate trained so I have experience with that as well.

“Allysa took care of my three kitties for three days, sending daily reports with pictures. She went above and beyond seeking out the little rascal that hides. Knowing she was checking on all of them made my vacation so restful. She is an excellent cat sitter ❣️”

“I always enjoy Kathryn being around Marley, she is truly amazing on what she does. You can see the love she has for dogs. I was comfortable knowing that she will do a few drop ins with Marley while we were at Disneyland. I totally recommend her. Can’t wait for the next one, Marley loves you!”
