Cat Sitting in Mayday

“Angela did an ah-mazing job with Louis and Mini! In fact I think this is the first time Mini has taken this quickly to a sitter. ❤️❤️ Definitely will be using Angela again in the future!”

“Katie just watched our 4 cats for the second time this Christmas weekend (drop-in visits) and she did a great job! The kitties are always happy to see her and she spends a lot of time making sure they are happy and fed before leaving. We are always a little nervous leaving our cats alone for extended periods of time and having them able to stay at home and have her come to our house to cuddle and feed them makes our vacations a lot less stressful!”

“This was my first time using a pet sitter on the app, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She was super communicative throughout, which really helped put me at ease. I felt totally comfortable knowing she was there to check in and take care of Kiki. She would often stay longer than the required 30 minutes, which was really nice. Highly recommend!”

About: My heart has always belonged to dogs. I grew up alongside many beautiful and loyal pets who I learned to care for. I have worked with senior dogs that require medications or special assistance. In 2022 I worked as a nanny and caretaker to a beautiful high energy shepherd that was a very stubborn walker. I learned to use commands, treats, and a head collar to help keep her in control so I could focus on the children during walks. I am so grateful to learn from the pets I work with. I have been able to apply much of what I learned from her training to teach my own stubborn pup to walk without ripping my arm off. I currently work as a daycare attendant at Happy Dog Daycare in Eureka. I love working with the huge variety of breeds and personalities that walk through the door everyday. I am pet CPR and First Aid Certified. Drop-In visits on weekdays will be available either 6am-12pm or 1pm-12am depending on my schedule for the week. Weekend visits may be scheduled anytime. Multiple visits may be booked each day. House sitting is available all week. I work during the week so pets must be able to be safely left unattended for up to 6 hours during the day. If your pet loves others and is fully vaccinated consider signing them up for Happy Dog Daycare for days you have to be away! (Will shuttle for existing clients. Subtract $14-22 from Rover price on days pet attends daycare. Client is responsible for daycare fees) Weekend pet sitting is open, I can be available 24/7 to care for your pet and home! HOUSESITTING - I am happy to accommodate your pet's specific routine as well as provide playtime and outings. Let's chat about your pup's needs so we can ensure they can have a fear free booking!. I want to ensure your pet is as comfortable and loved as possible while you're away. DROP-IN VISITS - 30 minutes typically includes feeding, changing water, potty break, and playtime. I am open to doing short 10-15 minute walks during drop-ins. 1 hour drop-in visits include feeding, changing water, walk and playtime suited to your dog’s needs. I suggest 1 hour visits if your dog is high energy or needs extra attention.

About: I have always had animals around as a child, from small house pets to larger livestock animals, and am used to animals of all kinds. I used to volunteered at an animal shelter in my hometown and have built experience through leash training the dogs, as well as cleaning their kennels, feeding and loving them. I have dog sat for people in my hometown overnight and have walked several dogs for neighbors or family friends for extra money and loved doing that. I am a huge fan of cats so I would be thrilled to watch your cat as well. I am a good choice for a dog sitter/walker because I am friendly and patient, and willing to accommodate to your pet's needs as much as you would like me to. I am a part time college student so am free most of the day everyday. This leaves plenty of time for pet care during my week. I care for pets in my/ the pet owners environment by catering to the needs of their pet, however that may look for the specific animal.

About: Hello! I’m a Durango local, recent college grad, and, above all, an animal lover. I grew up with animals and have spent years pet‑sitting for friends and neighbors, as well as volunteering with rescue organizations, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’m attentive to instructions, give regular photo updates, and treat every pet like my own. Having cared for my own two senior pups, I’m familiar with medication schedules, gentle exercise, etc. Although I’m new to Rover, I bring years of knowledgeable experience, and I can’t wait to make your pup feel safe, loved, and right at home. I am home during the day, which means I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet attention, exercise, and care. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to adjust to your pet’s specific routine. If needed, I can also provide transportation for boarding. Pets boarded in my home are free to roam a cozy, pet-friendly space and the fenced backyard. There are no other pets or children—just two mellow hens in a fully enclosed outdoor run. I make it a priority to help your dog feel safe and relaxed, especially in a new environment. I’ll stick closely to your pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, medications, and house rules to make their stay as smooth as possible. For house sitting and drop-in visits, I follow the same philosophy and treat every home with the same respect I give my own.

About: Dogs have been my constant companions throughout my life, and I've loved training and caring for them every step of the way. Currently volunteering with the La Plata County Humane Society has only deepened my commitment to animal welfare. Since I work from home, your pet will rarely be alone. I'll keep you connected with plenty of photos and updates, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your best friend is in loving hands. Since I work from home, your pet will rarely be alone. I do not have any hobbies or obligations that would take me away from them for more than a few hours. If your pet has any special needs, I am sure I can accommodate. I will care for your pets however you may wish! I love playing with dogs, taking them on walks or to the dog park, or simply lounging at home with them. If your pet has any special needs, I am sure I can accommodate.

“Cassandra is awesome! Great communication. Very professional. This was my first time using this app and it was an all-around positive experience. I ended up having to add an additional day. Cassandra was able to accommodate our extremely last minute request. I would definitely use Cassandra again and recommend her!!! For reference she watched two of our cats. One of which loves to try to escape so this was a huge worry of mine. But Cassandra put my mind at ease and everything went wonderful!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs, and I have been able to spend lots of time with furry friends!! I definitely love animals more than people. My mom has boarded dogs for years, so I have learned to feed, walk and take care of pets. I worked at a doggie/cat daycare and boarding place for a year and a half as a supervisor, and I learned a lot with that experience. I love hiking and going for walks, and I love hanging out with furry friends! I am currently in school, and do not have a job. I have plenty of time to hang out with your pets and I am able to stop by often. I will make sure the dog is fed, and gets outside when needed. If the dog needs to be in a crate, I will put them in a crate. If the dog needs a harness for walking I will absolutely use it.

About: I grew up with dogs of my own and have dog-sat for several friends and employers. I find dog-walking very meditative, and the personality of dogs can really come alive outdoors. I’m very attentive to energy levels, food/water intake, and of course, play time! I’m currently working part-time during the week but have my mornings and evenings open, as well as most weekends. I’m happy to chat more about what your pet care needs look like! Having my own cat, I always cat-proof my home to ensure that my cat is safe whether I am home or not. Before leaving the house, I always ensure my cat has enough food and fresh water. I would not only do this at your home, but I would also leave it better than I found it, treating your home as your sacred space that deserves respect, privacy, and cleanliness.

About: I have my own well behaved 2 year old medium sized dog. In health care and very knowledgeable. Love and care for all animals small or big. Available mainly on Saturday through Monday. But flexible with my current job if needed. Happy to work around my work schedule but free through the weekend and Mondays. I will care and take care of your pet as I would my own. But also take into consideration any of your pets needs and wants.

“It was the second time Ayden cared for our cats, and everything went well! The cats liked her and seemed happy. I always enjoy her dynamic photos! :)”

About: I’ve worked with animals my entire life! I’ve cared for horses and other pets with varying levels of medical and dietary needs and I’m comfortable with any type of pet and can stay on top of any unique medical needs they may have while giving them companionship! Since the age of 6 I’ve cared for a horse with very specific and high maintenance needs and I’ve even worked as a wrangler and caretaker in Yellowstone where I cared for over 30 horses at a time. I’m great at basic in home vet care and medication distribution if that is necessary! I’m very detail oriented and great at sticking to whatever specific schedule may be needed! I’m currently working a very flexible schedule and am available for drop ins, house visits, and any type of care you may need! I currently have a very flexible schedule and I am able to come for visits, provide outings, bring your pet to my house or come to your home. My home is directly on a trail head so I am able to provide fun outings for your pet if they are staying with me. I am a runner so if you like your dog to run I can take them running. I also enjoy walks and will meet your dog with whatever their needs may be.

“Kendall was amazing! We needed someone to stop in to check on our babies while we were at the resort and she made sure they were taken care of.”

About: Hi, I'm Victoria. I'm looking for an opportunity to stay active and engage with my pups in my local community. I have experience pet sitting overnight for multiple days and taking care of friends' and families' dogs. I'm a very outdoorsy and adventurous person, so I love taking dogs out for walks, hikes, and trips in nature. I'm pretty easygoing and can jive with the goofiest and most energetic pups, as well as the slow going sweethearts who just need to take it easy. So go travel, and work, and do what you need to do out in the world - your dog will be well taken care of! I have an atypical schedule and travel a lot, so I seek to care for puppies when I am in town. I like incorporating walking, sitting, and drop ins into my weekly schedule. I give every pet the love and care it would receive if its owners were home! I create an environment where the pet feels loved and where it’s needs are met.

“Patricia is amazing! This is the second time she’s watched my cats while I’ve been out of town, and I will always look to see if she’s available in the future. She keeps me up to date with how they’re doing, spends quality time with them and sends lots of photos. Thank you Patricia!! :)”

“Amanda was great. Stopped by twice before the actual visit to introduce herself and acquaint herself with our two dogs. Amanda provided drop-in service while my family took the train to Silverton. She sent a follow text and photo regarding her visit and the dogs interaction. I would definately recommend Amanda for watching your fur babies while being away.”

About: Hello! My name is Hannah and I am a lover of all four legged friends. I have always had dogs growing up and also have experience in care taking for cats, birds, rabbits, horses, chickens, goats, donkeys, pigs, exotic fish, reptiles, and more! I believe in lots of energetic play and love. I have a combined 6 years of experience in veterinary medicine and I am employed as a technician at Durango Animal Hospital. I will gladly hike or take your furry friend on a short walk - whichever your preference! I am also available at any time for overnight care. I am a very responsible and attentive person and I will cater to your needs 100%. I have one dog of my own (Fisher) who loves all other animals. He usually will come with me when I stay at other homes, but we can make other arrangements if necessary. I work full time at Durango Animal Hospital and my schedule varies but I am able to take lunch breaks to let pets outside as needed. Due to my busy schedule, I am taking new clients sparingly so that I can best serve my preexisting clients and friends. Safety, comfort, and open communication on both sides are of the utmost importance to me when staying at someone else’s home. The health and happiness of your four legged family member is my top priority. Should anything arise, you can rest assured that I will be attentive and caring.
