Cat Sitting in Mechanicville

“I don’t know where to start with how exceptional our experience was with Brittany. Visits were completed with care, attentiveness, and a clear love for the work she’s doing. We had to modify our scheduled visit several times as we were caught in Hurricane Milton while on vacation, throwing our schedule into disarray and making a return date questionable and shifting. Brittany was immediately available to reassure us that our babies were in good hands, and was flexible without hesitation to make sure that our pets were well cared for for several extra days after we expected to need her. If you need a pet sitter, book Brittany. You will not be taken better care of anywhere else.”

“Mary-Kate was great. She was able to fit us in a little bit last minute and both my dog and cat loved her immediately! She didn't take care of my dog this time, but she took excellent care of my "princess" Jasmine (kitty). I will definitely be using her again!”

“Danielle is a great cat sitter. She seems caring, extremely nice, intelligent, and great with animals. Her place is always spotless. She’s very reliable, and took great care of my Ginger. I would recommend her, and will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“She was great! She went above and beyond! Really helped us out. We highly recommend her and we would use her again.”

About: I have been sitting for years and currently have two dogs of my own. Our older dog had ear cancer so I am familiar with how to care for sick dogs and how to give medicine and the treatments of such nature. I currently work during the work week so I am free most nights during the week week do stop ins and then have much more open availability on the weekends! I am very attentive to the needs set out by the parents and make sure I am following instructions! I love taking the pets and walks as it’s good for both me and them! I would love to play and also can be down for a good cuddle as well.

“Michelle is responsible, reliable, and an excellent communicator. She took care of our two cats (one is elderly and the other one is young) with ease. I would not hesitate to recommend Michelle!!”

“Did an excellent job. My boys were well cared for.”

“Larry was great with our two cats. It was our first time using Rover and I'll definitely be booking him again next time we need someone to watch our cats. All directions were followed and he even helped pickup the hairballs while we were away.”

Brett M.

“Excellent pet sitter! She sent me photos of the kitties everyday and was so sweet. 100% reliable, punctual, and gave me the ultimate peace of mind knowing that my babies were being well-looked after.”

About: All my life, I have had a special connection with animals. Even the pets that are "sassier" than others, I have been able to connect with to make them comfortable. Animals love me, and I love them! I attribute this to the fact that I have been a pet sitter in my neighborhood since middle school, and I have had several different kinds of pets growing up. Now that I am a college graduate, I am looking to expand my network. I have experience with cats and dogs of all ages, as well as some more exotic pets. Please let me know if you have any questions for me! I work full-time at an OB/GYN clinic 4 days a week. My hours are from 7 am to 5:30 pm, so I am free most days after 5:30 pm. I have one day off a week, and I do not work there on weekends. My off day is usually Mondays but it can vary; I am almost always free on weekends. I get my schedule well in advance, so if you want to know when I am available a certain week, I will definitely be able to tell you! Every pet is different. My pets at home have specific routines that they like to stick to and are more comfortable with. In my experience, I usually ask the owner to write or message me what their pet needs and when they need it. This way, they don't feel that too much has changed from their day to day, even if their owner isn't there. For example, people usually let me know what time their pet eats, how many times they usually need to go to the bathroom, and generally what makes them happy. This way, I can give them what they need and make them comfortable when they are missing you!

About: I have grown up with my three dogs in the house that I have always helped out with and got my two cats when i got my first job following my cats i’ve had as a child. I pet sit for my neighbors when they go on trips and watch their dog and two cats, as well as go over to brush and walk the dog when needed and I have done this for them for 7 years I currently work part time and have lots of free time to take care of your pets! I have time for long and short visits / walks. Safety with the animal and communication with the owner is key! Thanks to my Certifications I know how to properly restrain all size pets if needed, as well as perform CPR if needed.

“Donna was terrific. I got updates every day with pictures. She went over and beyond what was expected. I forgot to turn on lights for the cats and it was so nice to pull up late at night and she remembered to leave lights on for them. She also brought in my mail and dealt with some unexpected accidents around the house from my older cat Lou. Will definitely book Donna again from my next trip”

“Ju-lie took wonderful care of my cat while I was out of town and kept me updated on how he was doing the whole time!”

Catherine D.

“Stephanie was amazing. We met her once and knew she was the right choice. She was easily able to handle providing medication and special nutritional needs for our two older girls, as well as, keeping our younger guy busy with plenty of playtime. Steph sent plenty of pictures each day along with a detailed recap of each visit. When we were delayed 2 days getting home from our trip she was happy to extend our agreement to help us out of the jam. I would recommend to anyone needing care for their animals… as long as we don’t need her first!”

Anthony P.

“Loved the open communication with Samantha. She went above and beyond for my cat!”

Emma T.

“Jackie did a marvelous job taking care of our very shy kitty for 12 days. She “talked “ and sang to him and was able to lure him out of hiding after only a few days. We received a video and many pictures when he realized that he might have fun with this person. Jackie also brought in our mail, watered plants and put the garbage out for two weeks. She even vacuumed the area where our cat played. We felt very comfortable having Jackie in our home and look forward to having her back in the future.”

Pamela R.

“Our dogs love Alexa! We also know they are well cared for (and maybe even a little spoiled) when they are with her.”

Maddie C.

“Daniel was great! Communicates well, punctual and responsive. I will definitely use him again if he’s willing and able. Thanks Daniel!”

Bridgette H.

“Kania allowed me to enjoy my week out of town without needing to worry about my cat Lux's wellbeing or comfort being left at home alone. This was my first time using Rover and Kania made receiving updates a breeze, sending pictures and videos of Lux, which helps me so much to see my baby while I was away from home! Kania is very down to earth, communicative, responsive, and so natural with Lux during our meet and greet, that I knew I would be comfortable leaving Lux in her care. I would 110% book Kania again for any cat sitting needs, any cat and owner would be so lucky to have Kania as their sitter! 😺”
