Cat Sitting Melrose Park

“I had a great experience with my dog sitter! She did an amazing job taking care of my dogs and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I really appreciated the care and attention she gave them. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and I would absolutely book with her again! 🐶❤️”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, they’ve always held a special place in my heart. From dogs and cats to horses and more, I love getting to know each animal’s unique personality. Whether your pet loves to play, cuddle, explore, or simply enjoys calm company, I’ll care for them with the same love, patience, and attention I’d give my own fur babies! As a licensed esthetician, I create my own schedule & have the flexibility to work around your pet’s routine, making scheduling stress free for both of us. You can count on me to be dependable, respectful of your home, and to keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in loving, capable hands. Pet care has always been a natural part of my day to day routine because I’ve grown up around animals & have cared for pets for majority of my life. I work part time as an esthetician, meaning I can create my own schedule, which gives me flexibility throughout the week for walks, visits, & overnight stays! The pet’s safety, comfort, & routine would be my highest priorities. I like to take the time to learn each pet’s personality, feeding schedule, medications, favorite activities, etc so they feel secure and cared for. I have experience being around cats and dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I understand that every animal has different comfort zones and boundaries. Whether your pet is shy, playful, independent, or needs extra patience, I always respect their pace. I’ll l keep your home clean, follow your instructions carefully, & provide regular photo and video updates so you always know how your furry family members are doing.🐾

“Yulissa took great care of our kiddies. All cat areas were clean when we came home, and the bowls were filled. Yulissa also communicated very well. One of our cats needs medicine, and is not easy to deal with. Yulissa always let us know how it went. She clearly established a good relationship with the cat that needed medicine, because she let Yulissa brush her 😊. Overall, we really recommend Yulissa..”

About: My name is Daniella. I am 24 years old and working with animals is what my life is about. All my life I have had my own pets and I have also worked at an animal hospital for the past 8 years! I am a college graduate with a degree in Biology and I’m here to make sure your fur babies are happy and safe! I have lots of experience with animals and I love any kind. You have a cat? No problem! 5 dogs? (It’s okay I do too!) consider me to watch your lovely animals! I promise that I won’t let you down! I am currently a full time vet tech! I am free pretty much every Sunday and Wednesday and Saturday afternoons after 3pm. I am off some Mondays as well. I would love to be able to work with your schedule as well! Bringing pets into my home won’t always be an option for me but I am more than happy to stay at your home to watch your fur babies! I have 2 dogs and 2 cats myself so bringing in other pets does not always work well for my little guysz

“Ashlee is an absolute lifesaver! We were in a bind where we had just adopted a 4-month-old kitten and one week later needed to unexpectedly travel out of town. We weren’t sure how little Mabel would do without someone around yet. Ashlee saved the day and spent a few nights at our house to ensure our little one, as well as our 3 y/o cat she’s been sitting for over a year now, we’re in great hands. It put my mind at ease knowing she was there. I trust her completely with being in our home and taking the best care of our fur babies.”

About: I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs—big, small, energetic, friendly, and even those who need a little extra patience and attention. Every dog is different, and I’m happy to adapt to whatever makes them feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I’m even more experienced with cats, having grown up around them my entire life! I love getting to know each cat’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I also have experience administering insulin shots to cats and am comfortable following specific care routines and instructions. I currently have almost complete availability, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I'm very flexible. Reach out to me for scheduling. I'm used to many varying sets of rules from house to house when it comes to pets. Let me know where they should and shouldn't be and I'll make sure to keep to that!

About: Family and friends have relied on me to look after their furry babies for a couple of years now. Drop-ins, dog sitting, dog walking, and cat sitting. Current cat and dog owner. As a pet owner for quite literally my entire life, I can confidently say your fur babies are in good hands. I work in healthcare on a rotating schedule, so it’s kind of difficult to set days and times. Feel free to reach out and we can discuss what you need, which days, and times. I do my best to accommodate you and your baby. Whatever instruction is given to me I will follow in order to keep pets happy and comfortable as well as owners. Keeping pets happy and comfortable is the motive.

About: I have had and taken care of pets my entire life. I grew up in a rural area, so am comfortable with all sorts of animals, from dogs and cats to livestock, chickens, or even lizards! I am comfortable caring for, walking, administering medications, and wound management for any type of dog or cat. I am currently studying for a medical school exam, so my schedule is flexible and play dates with animals are my favorite type of study break! I do not offer boarding but I am available for walks, drop-ins, and overnights. While I do not provide care in my home, I am comfortable following any safety guidelines that you request I use in your home or while out walking your pet.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including overnight and extended stays in clients’ homes. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, basic medications, and following each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I’m also a nursing student, so I’m dependable, organized, attentive to details, and comfortable following specific care instructions. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and home, so I make communication a priority and am happy to send regular photo and video updates while you’re away. I have pets of my own and understand that every animal has a different personality, comfort level, and routine. My goal is to keep your pet feeling safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re gone. Pet care fits well into my schedule because I have flexibility outside of my nursing classes and clinicals. I’m able to plan walks, drop-ins, feeding times, and overnight stays around each pet’s normal routine, and I’m especially available in the evenings and on weekends. When I commit to a booking, I make sure I have enough time to give your pet consistent attention rather than trying to squeeze visits in. I’m also happy to work around specific feeding, medication, or exercise schedules when needed. I currently have online classes Monday and Tuesday mornings, which can be done from home. I have in-person classes Wednesday and Thursday from 10-4 and Friday 7am-1pm. Weekends for me are open! I provide care in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions carefully, and I make sure doors, gates, leashes, and food are always handled securely. I’m very respectful of both the pet and the home, and I pay close attention to any changes in behavior, appetite, or energy while the owner is away. I also send regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

“I love Viktoriia! She took exceptional care of my old kitty. I was very nervous about going away, but Viktoriia put me at ease right away. She sent pictures daily and made my kitty comfortable and secure. 5 stars!!”

About: I recently graduated from Northern Michigan University this past spring with a bachelors degree in Education. Before pursuing my career, I am taking time off to work and spend time with family. I am a lover of all animals, though I have the most experience with cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. Over the past 8 years, I have worked with several families for drop by visits and extended stays while they travel. I have a fur baby of my own, my cat Ringo, who I love very much. I have several references available for back ground check and to hear from prior families I have worked with for feedback if desired! I would love to work with you and your pets! I have a pretty open schedule! I work 1-2 shifts a week of retail for roughly 4 hours per shift. I can do overnights, extended stays, multiple visits per day, and so on. I’m flexible to your needs! When caretaking for you animal, I’ll be more than ready to follow your expectations. I have a list of references available from prior families I’ve worked with in the past that I am more than welcome to share with you. At any point, feel free to contact me via call or text if you have questions or concerns about the wellbeing of your animal.

About: I’ve been around and caring for animals for most of my life. Growing up with pets and continuing to have them today has given me a lot of hands-on experience understanding their needs, routines, and personalities. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats, including feeding, providing fresh water, giving treats, walks and exercise, playtime, litter box and potty breaks, and keeping their spaces clean and comfortable. I’m also comfortable giving pets plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. I know some pets need lots of activity and play, while others are happier with a quiet environment, cuddles, and someone nearby. I’m attentive to changes in their behavior and routine and take their individual needs seriously. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals. When I care for someone’s pet, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I treat every pet as an individual and care for them with the same patience, kindness, and attention I would give my own. I’m a part-time nanny with a flexible schedule, so I’m looking to fill my available time by caring for pets. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, litter box care, and companionship. I love animals and enjoy giving them the attention and care they deserve! Although I am unable to watch pets in my home I would be happy to come to you. If you have a safe yard to play in we could hang out there and throw the ball around or just bask in the sun with lots of pets and belly rubs. I love nature as much as I do animals so I would also love to take them on different adventures around the neighborhood as well

About: I’ve worked as a full time nanny for the past 6 years and have been responsible for walking and caring for their pets too, I also have my own senior doggie, a 13 year old schnauzer and have always loved caring for kiddos and their animal friends. I currently work as a nanny Monday- Friday, but only 4 hours per day because I am only responsible for school drop offs and pick ups, so a couple hours in the morning and a couple in the afternoon and I have the rest of the day available for walks and pet sitting! I can crate your dog if needed and provide any medication necessary for your pets, I love doing long walks and can stick to any schedule necessary whether that be feeding time or potty time. I am always punctual and I feel very passionate about making your pets feel safe and well taken care of.

About: I have about 15 years of pet care, not just with my own pets, but as a dog walker, a pet sitter, and a rescuer. I have experience with dogs and cats! As someone who believes that animal rights are super integral, I tried to go above and beyond for the animals in my neighborhood, even rescuing, squirrels and raccoons to make sure that they have a fighting chance of survival. In addition, I have experience with special-needs animals as well. I know how to administer insulin, do different kinds of oral medication’s, and even eardrops. Lastly, my experience ranges from puppies and kitties all the way to our senior puppies (older dogs never stop being our puppies). Pet care is ingrained into every part of my life. Mainly because I have my own pets, so everything from waking up early to take them out, to feedings and making sure that they get enough playtime! In terms of how I fit into your life, I do have a very flexible schedule as I’m an independent contractor, so I do have more flexibility. I love an early morning of dog walking, so for any early birds, I’m your girl! I’m someone who believes that there are fundamentals for all care and those need to be followed but I also understand that a lot of pets have specialized care. For example, I have a wobbly cat so everything from how she goes potty where she gets to hang out and how she gets her food is very specific because she has a disability. I am open to Pat who might need some specialized care or need medication. As I have the experience of dealing with pets who might need a little bit of extra care! I also try my absolute best to make sure that my environment fits the needs of a pet so that they can feel comfortable and feel like they are right at home.

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs of all sizes for over 10 years, giving me hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. I regularly pet sit and dog walk, and I’ve personally trained my own dogs, so I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and safe, attentive care. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine, especially right now. I’m available for pet sitting, walks, check-ins, and last-minute needs. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to give pets consistent attention, plenty of exercise, and reliable care throughout the day and week. I care for pets as if they were my own, whether in my home or a client’s. I’m very attentive to safety and routines, especially with dogs who may try to escape. Since I’ve owned an escape-artist dog myself, I double- and triple-check doors, gates, leashes, and fences at all times. I follow each pet’s normal schedule, provide plenty of exercise and enrichment, and make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Hi I am Audrey! I’m a student at the University of Dayton. I’ve had four dogs and a variety of other pets throughout my life, and I spent three years working at a dog kennel which also had cats and all kinds of pets as well. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and understand the extra attention they need. I am available almost everyday during the week and can work on a short notice. I will prioritize your animal when the help is needed. I feed, walk, and take care of my own dogs. I will carry this onto your pets and their needs. I will follow any instructions provided.

About: Since the age of ten, I've cherished caring for a variety of pets, from hamsters and goldfish to dogs and cats. This experience has taught me the importance of responsible pet ownership, including providing proper nutrition, regular exercise, consistent training, and attentive healthcare. I've learned to understand animal behavior and anticipate their needs, fostering strong bonds built on trust and affection. My dedication to pet care has instilled in me a deep respect for animal welfare and a commitment to their well-being. I currently work seasonal part time and have open availability during the weekdays and if notified ahead of time I can be available on weekends When caring for a dog in their owner's home, I prioritize safety and trust by following these guidelines: I maintain a secure environment by keeping doors and windows closed, ensuring the home is free of hazards, and storing medications and cleaning supplies out of reach. I follow the owner's instructions regarding feeding, exercise, and medication schedules. I respect the owner's property and belongings, and avoid entering areas I haven't been given permission to access. I communicate regularly with the owner, providing updates and photos of their dog. By adhering to these practices, I create a safe, trustworthy, and comfortable experience for both the dog and their owner.

About: I'm intimately familiar with cats and their body language and have been taking care of my silly accident-prone orange boy for 6 years. For the past few years, I've taken care of multiple cats at a time, have rescued kittens, and house-sat for other cat owners. I know how to handle the crazy kitties that may love or hate strangers. I go to classes every weekday until 2:30pm, freeing up my entire afternoon to care for people's pets! I also have my own car, allowing me to travel more reliably. I brush, feed, water, and play with clients' pets while remaining respectful of their homes. I am a quick learner when it comes to understanding an animal's preferences, including sitting with them the entire time they eat to help them feel secure.
