Cat Sitting in Maywood

“Melanie was wonderful with our 3 cats. She kept us updated every day and we are so thankful for her help while we were away. Very trustworthy and highly recommended!”

“I'm so glad I found Megan! She was the perfect sitter for Gordon and Diane. Her daily updates were thorough, the pictures were adorable, and she left my place immaculate. While I don't want to leave them again anytime soon, I would have Megan back in a heartbeat to watch my kitties.”

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life, including a German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Pitbull mix, so I’m very comfortable with both large and high-energy breeds. I also have experiences with extended stay puppy sitting where I managed feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and creating a calm, structured environment. I understand how important consistency, patience, and attentiveness are, especially with puppies. I’m currently preparing to welcome a Golden Retriever puppy of my own, so I’m very intentional about creating safe, positive experiences for dogs. I work Monday through Friday but my partner is currently home all day, so someone will always be there to care for your dog! We are open to boarding any night. Walks I am primarily available after work or sometimes the morning before. My partner is currently available most anytime! We are both reliable and detail oriented. We are prepping to bring in our very own golden retriever puppy, so will treat your dog as if they are our own! As mentioned above I work Mon-Friday roughy 8-4. My partner is currently home throughout the day so someone will always be there to care for your dog. We are open to boarding almost any day especially weekends where we are both home. Walks and drop ins work best for me before work hours or after but my partner has open availability so between us we can accommodate to you! Feel free to ask if you have any specific availability questions! :) Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I live in a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment and am very attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and safety during walks and care. I always keep dogs securely leashed on walks, avoid unsafe situations, and closely monitor their behavior and well-being. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your dog, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and committed to providing a safe and positive experience. I’m also happy to send regular photo and video updates so you always feel confident and connected while your dog is in my care.

“You know how you just know when someone is an authentic, caring cat person and Sofia is one of those extra special people that trust will treat your pet as well as she takes care of her own! I am a huge fan! She is now going to be the first person I check with if we need cat sitting. Our kitty usually gets very grumpy with us after we go on a trip ... but not this time! She did all the good stuff-- fed him, checked his litter, etc-- PLUS she played with him (which is not always a given with cat sitters), brought in packages, and turned lights on/off to make it seem like we were home. Thank you Sofia for making our time away from Otis much less stressful.”

“If I could give more stars than 5 I would. Sam is the only sitter that my cat trusted enough to come out of hiding. I have a cat with a traumatic history and normally he does not budge from the farthest depths under the bed. I finally can stop worrying about my gentle giant while I am away.”

Wendy C.

“We were away for a little over 2 weeks and Marissa helped check in with our cat. Not only did she play and help with our cat, she helped us bring in our mail. She’s amazing and will always love for her to help in the future!”

Tammy Q.

“Samantha was great with the cats. They let her pet them the first time she met them. She was very understanding of the complex situation I was in to have someone watch my daughter's cats.”

Gregory S.

“April did a great job feeding my cat. She sent me messages and photos. She also kept me updated. I would like to use her services in the future. Hilda Hoagland”

Hilda H.

“Julie was a great pet sitter. She was very detailed with her visit summary and went the extra mile to make sure the pets felt comfortable with her before interacting.”

Carolina M.

“Jamie took amazing care of my kitty! They were communicative and unafraid to ask great questions if they were unsure about something. Highly recommended!”

Deanna M.

“Once again, Kelly is fantastic. We’ve used her before and have another visit with her again. She’s always thorough and very caring to our two kitties. Thanks Kelly!”

About: I have raised 2 dogs since puppies until older age. I have experience with older dogs and puppies. Love them all. I have no pets at the moment so any pet I care for will receive lots of love. Love all pets I can provide care in the morning and afternoon. I am available for many services. I can walk pets, play with them, feed them, take them out, cuddle them, and give them love. I can also stay in your house or apartment with your pet. I give pets lots of love and attention. I can give pets lots of love, cuddle with them and give them treats, practice commands, or also just give them space and take them out for walks. I love dogs, I also like cats. Any pets are a joy

“Thank you for the last minute help!”

Kim J.

“Michael was outstanding with our dog Jules. Highly recommend.”

Dan C.

“Ola was a wonderful cat sitter, especially for my older cat who requires special attention and insulin injections. She handled everything with great care and confidence. I truly appreciated her reliability and how comfortable she made me feel knowing my cats were in good hands. Highly recommend! :)”

Rachel H.

“I will definitely hire her again! Paulina is great! She will definitely be my cat sitter!”

Victoria D.

“I can't say enough great things about Jacqui! They went above and beyond while checking on my dog, and it gave me such peace of mind knowing my pup was in such good hands. Not only did they make sure all the basics were covered—food, water, bathroom breaks, but they also took the time to give my dog some love, playtime, and attention, which made all the difference. I got regular updates (including some adorable photos!), and I could tell my dog was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. It’s clear that Jacqui truly loves animals and treats them like their own. Reliable, kind, and completely trustworthy. I'd recommend Jacqui to anyone looking for someone to care for their furry family members. Thank you so much for everything!”

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for pets and have grown up around both cats and dogs. I’ve owned cats for many years and had a family dog growing up, so I’m comfortable with different pet personalities and routines. I’m familiar with feeding schedules, litter box and yard care, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. What sets me apart is that I’m attentive, reliable, and patient with animals. I understand that every pet is different, whether they’re energetic, shy, or independent, and I adjust my care to what makes them feel most comfortable. I always treat pets like they’re my own and I’m happy to send updates and photos so owners have peace of mind while they’re away I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate consistent time to pet care throughout the week. I’m able to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on your pet’s routine. I make sure feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and check-ins are done on time so pets stay comfortable and relaxed while their owners are away. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos during visits so you know your pet is doing well. I prioritize safety, routine, and making pets feel comfortable in their environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, walks, and litter box or yard care. I also make sure pets get attention, playtime, and companionship so they don’t feel stressed while their owners are away. I respect each home and keep everything clean and secure, including making sure doors, gates, and food storage are handled properly. I’m attentive to pet behavior and always keep an eye out for anything unusual so I can communicate with the owner right away if needed. My goal is to keep pets as relaxed and safe as possible by maintaining their normal routine and environment.

“Loved how Samantha took my last min booking and was very communicative the entire time! Will def book her again when needed”

About: Background: For the past six years I have dedicated my time to working with animals. When I was in middle school, my family adopted our first two dogs. Soon after, I started housesitting and walking family and friends' pets, igniting my passion. After seeing how rewarding working with animals was, I devoted my professional career towards working in an animal-related field. Relevant Experience: Since highschool, I have worked at two different dog daycares as an animal handler and dog trainer. I have also worked in animal shelters as a volunteer and employee. These experiences have given me the opportunities to work with dogs and cats of all sizes, ages and temperaments. I have experience medicating animals orally and through injections. As a dog handler, I became comfortable working with groups of dogs and recognizing body language in play. As a trainer, I implemented a positive-reward based training plan to work on basic manners as well as certain behavior adjustments. Lastly, working at animal shelters gave me knowledge of animal vaccines and medications as well as comfortably handling dogs and cats of any temperament. What I can offer: I offer dog walks, drop-in visits and pet visiting at the owner's residence. I am able to provide an active and loving environment for your animals while you are away, this can include any amount of exercise needed for your pet! While I am caring for your animal, I will be available to reach 24/7 in case of emergencies. I am also happy to answer any training and behavior questions you may have about your pets. I also have the covid vaccination and am willing to go above and beyond to make sure we are staying safe. I look forward to meeting and spending time with all your wonderful pets!
