Cat Sitting Merlin

About: I have been involved with animals my entire life, my dad is a veterinarian, and I worked as a vet tech for over eight years. I’ve also volunteered at rehab rehabilitation centers. I’m very experienced with owning all types of animals, and deeply care about their well-being! I currently work from home and can fit my schedule around caring for my/other pets. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits with flexible timing. I’m very attentive and treat every pet like family. I keep a clean, calm environment, stick to their normal routine, and closely follow any care instructions. I’m mindful about doors, leashes, and safety at all times, and I send regular updates so you feel totally at ease.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and my grandma used to train guide dogs for the blind so I have a lot of experience with dogs. I am currently starting my student teaching this year and for the time being this will be done through half days four days a week. So I have pretty open availability throughout the week and can be really flexible. In your home I will do my absolute best to stick to your pets normal schedule as to not cause them any stress while you are away.

“Kailee is the best. She stayed at our house and took care of our three cat. Two who take a pill twice a day. She sent photos and updates. We had a late flight and Kalie left the lights on for us and collected the mail without us asking. We highly recommend her. She is awesome!”

About: Suz and Brian have both been lifelong pet parents. Suz worked for a pet hospital for years and almost all of our pets over the last 20 years have been special needs rescue babies.(diabetic, blind, deaf, liver shunt, dementia, cancer, etc) This means we are well versed in special needs care for your special needs kiddos. Pills, SubQ injections, SubQ fluids, bandage changes, glucose testing, Suz works remotely from home, available to our boarded pets as needed through the day for loves, medicine, etc. Brian, who does our house/pet sitting services, currently works outside of the home so goes to and from work directly to/from your home. Ensuring you are comfortable with who is caring for your pet(s) is second only to your pet(s) safety and well being in our care! Cat boarding: since we have a cat of our own and we know other cats may not be open to meeting her (she is ok with others.. mostly ignores them) so we have a dedicated cat boarding room where she cannot go near them if you wish. Our yard has no grass (rock and astroturf) so no nasty ticks riding our coattails into the home to come in contact with your kitty. Brian is available for drop in care or overnight boarding in your home for dogs and/or cats. This is what we prefer for our own pets when we are away, maintaining their routines etc as best as possible, so want to be sure you have this option too! All of our personal pets are fully vaccinated and receive regular flea treatment.

“Alicia was amazing with my cat, Jiji! I was out of town, so my mom dropped her off and picked her up from Alicia’s. It was a hectic time with the holidays, and we ended up having to change both the drop-off and pick-up times at the last minute. Alicia was so gracious in accommodating our last minute changes. She also sent picture updates of Jiji! She came back happy, safe, and sound. Thank you so much, Alicia!”

“Brandy responded quickly with concerns. Brandy let me know when she was there caring for my cat, Harvey and when she left. However, upon returning home the litter box had not been cleaned for a few days and the larger water bowl was a bit dirty. My other cat, Amelia passed away naturally before Brandy was scheduled to attend to her needs. I appreciate she attempted to get a reduce rate since she was only caring for one cat, Harvey. I have to say her work was good. It was comforting knowing my one cat was being taken care of since my other cat died just prior to her scheduled time. Also, Harvey is hard to spend time with since he is extremely shy. I did appreciate the pictures taken.”

About: I’ve been taking care of all kinds of animals since I was little! I have a huge soft spot for all animals. My family and friends always rely on me to care for their houses and pets! With a sudden and unexpected loss of a loved one recently, I decided to take some time off and be more focused on myself. That being said, my schedule is extremely open and flexible! I have a very high energy boarder collie so working with energetic dogs are not a problem for me whatsoever! I understand every animal should be getting their energy out and enjoy their lives!

About: Hello! My name is Samantha and I am 26 years old. I joined rover to earn some extra money while spending some time with furry (or non furry) friends. I have volunteered at local shelters and have watched the animals of my family and friends since I was about 10 years old. I treat each and every animal with the love, care, and respect that they deserve. I am very compassionate and take the time to tend to one’s animals as if they were my own. My rates are flexible depending on the animal(s), and the situation. I am able to flex my schedule around your needs! I work full time but I am able to work remotely if needed and can take breaks throughout the day if necessary. I often do not watch animals in my home due to my 5 fur babes. However, depending on the situation, and the animal, a short stay in my home may be an option. Hopefully I can be your next pet or house sitter. I have recommendations upon request. I am looking forward to speaking with you soon!!

“We had a wonderful experience and would absolutely recommend her! Our cats are extremely shy and decided to stay hidden during her visits, but that didn’t faze her at all. She arrived right on time, followed all of our instructions carefully, and did a fabulous job making sure everything was taken care of. It gave us such peace of mind knowing we had someone dependable and conscientious looking after things while we were away. She was reliable, responsible, and clearly takes her work seriously. We came home to everything just as it should be and two perfectly well-cared-for (if still very antisocial! 😂) cats. We would happily book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter!”

“Kaelin is amazing! She is SO professional and kind! My two rescue pups (mini poodle and terrier) adored her from the moment they met her and my cat Gordito loved her! She has incredible experience working at veterinary offices, and it was obvious from her knowledge and questions. She gave my cat his insulin shot, without any issues! She sent me the most awesome message, letting me know everything she had done, how Gordito was, and sent several pics! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, professional and warm animal sitter!”

“Athena s the ultimate cat care giver! She is conscientious about sharing updates regarding how our cats have been doing in our absence. She is very supportive and easy to work with and has a relaxing presence which was a superb match for our cats. We could not have asked for more and will not hesitate to request her services again!”

Linda P.

“Kristina was wonderful! She kept us apprised of how everyone was doing daily which was great. But most importantly, the cats were happy with her. She was able to medicate those on meds the first day - which for a bunch of indoor/outdoor cats and someone they don’t really know is amazing. We also had to make some last minute changes in our plans (because ice) and she was completely fine with that. We also loved that she had experience with chickens and exotic birds as we may be adding those to our family. We very much hope to work with her again.”
