Cat Sitting in Middlebury

“Has been an absolute joy working with Irene. 10 out of 10 would recommend and will use again. I know my pups are going to miss the snuggles and the reads. Such wonderful compassion for our fur babies. Couldn’t ask for more. Thank you !”

About: For my 10th birthday I got a golden retriever. She was my best friend and sparked such a love for animals in me. I’ve taken care of every farm animal you could think of, every kind of dog ranging in every size, I love all cats and have cared for many as well! I’m doing schooling online and I’m extremely flexible on a day to day basis and on weekends as well. I wake up early and go to sleep early typically so I can adjust to whatever feeding schedule any animal may be on. I have a very large property with woods and lots of room to run around. I live on a road I take daily walks on. I have a large house and a barn outside as well. I’m flexible depending on what your fur baby is most comfortable with. I can offer a lot of exercise, cuddles, they can sleep in a crate if that makes them comfortable or they can sleep out of the crate.

“She did a great job!”

About: I’ve always been around animals, and my family has owned several pets since I was around 12; everything from german shepherds to frogs and fishes. I’ve helped train, care for, and love all of our animals. I know what it takes to discipline, but also care for pets, while creating an environment that your animal is comfortable in. My outside experience mostly includes dog sitting for friends and neighbors, though I do not discriminate when it comes to any 4-legged furry friend! I currently work part-time nights and am in nursing school. This allows me to have most weekends off, a couple of days off during the week, and most nights. Creating safety and trust with animals is always key. With new animals, I’m always sure to let them sniff me out and feel the vibes before we move along with anything else. I am able to supply treats, leashes, or garbage backs if needed when walking dogs.

“Absolutely awesome experience! I can’t say enough good things about how well Hanna took care of my fur-babies. Highly recommend her and I will definitely have her over again in the future!”

“She is perfect! She responded quickly and even tho I was booking last minute she fit me in to her schedule. Our first time I booked an in home visit and a 30 minute walk with Ann, I had seen such a huge difference in my dog queen when I got home! Not only that but I had went outside for break and just so happened to see her and Queen walking across the street. I got to see how nice and soft-spoken she was to queen and how safe and attentive she was towards her.I am extremely satisfied and and will be booking regular weekly visits! She is great with animals and I highly recommend her. I can't express enough how grateful I am and how much of a difference she made for queen.❤️❤️”

“Raquel did a great job. I really appreciate her putting our Chewey order away too. (Always seems to come when I am gone.) She checked w/ me when she had questions and gained the trust of our timid kitty.”

Anne G.

“She was very nice and reliable. I would recommend her to take care of your furry friends”

“Natalie was able to accommodate Huckleberry with short notice. Kept me updated with pictures and even stayed a little longer than what was required.”

Justin C.

“Roy is a true angel. It was a last minute booking and with power outages it was a crazy chaotic week. He went above and beyond with the girls!”

Madison L.

“Alerie was amazing. She really understands dogs. We have a Great Dane and she knew right away at the meet and greet how to Introduce herself. We spent the day away knowing our babies were in good hands. Thank you so much again. Highly recommend!!!”

About: I am currently unavailable until April 8th, 2020 due to a study service trip with Goshen College. Feel free to contact me, but know you will not receive a response until April 8th. Thank you for understanding. I have no professional experience with dog care, however I have cared for numerous pets over the last 15 years of my life (I'm 21 now) and have loved every bit of it. I am looking to get some extra cash by doing something I love while in college. I love taking dogs to the park to play for hours and then snuggling up with them later because they are so tired. It's my favorite thing to do is tire a dog out so much that all it does is want to sleep later (kind of like a kid, haha). Really just looking for an excuse to spend time with animals. Professionally speaking, I am a student in college studying Sociology and Psychology. I am a part time lifeguard/supervisor, a swim coach, and part time data and research assistant at a local nonprofit organization. I anticipate a Spring 2020 graduation

About: Animals have been in my life since I was born. Cats, dogs, rodents, fish... even spiders! I've loved and cared for them all. I'm confident around all pets no matter their size or demeanor Working in education, my summers are always guaranteed off so I have plenty of time for your animals! Mornings, afternoons, evenings...even emergency visits! I can do them all. Including WEEKEND AVAILABILITY Any instructions given about your fur baby will be followed to a T. They are my number one priority and will always be treated as such.

About: I am a certified animal lover! I have cared for friends’, family’s, and co-worker’s dogs, including over night and extended stays. I worked as a volunteer at Pet Refuge for over 2 years, where we assisted with enrichments, walks, feeding, medication administration, etc., for dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. In my experience in pet and child care, I care for them like they are my own! ❤️ And with that being said, you can have peace of mind knowing I am making sure all needs are met and paying attention to every detail! I currently work Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm. So, as of now, I am free only in the evening or on the weekends. HOWEVER, come mid-June I will no longer have that time commitment and will be free thoughout the daytime as well. I have been a babysitter for the same family for 10 years. I have done many overnights in their home over the years, which also has included taking care of their Shiba inus! Not only have I taken care of their 5 kids and 3 dogs, but I’ve also either baby, dog, or house sat for their parents and siblings, which I believe is a testament to the respect and quality care I strive to provide.

About: I can't help but attempt to nurture every animal I come across, from a baby squirrel to adopting my former streetcat (Iroh). In addition to housesitting, catsittting, and dogsitting for a number of people in Indianapolis, just in this past year alone, I've also taken upon the responsibility of self-fostering 3 kittens. Recently, I finished 5 months of bathing/grooming training experience through Petco. This past experience has taught me the importance of pet safety and taught me much about dog care and health, from regular bathing to nutrition. I've taken care of several different species of pets in the past 15 years, including several in/outdoor cats, a rabbit, two hamsters, a chameleon, and a former family Labrador Retriever. Since I was young, I've had a large amount of compassion and consideration for all living critters and creatures. I now spend much my time commiting to reading and research about dogs, cats, and other animals. My experience, multiple-species expertise, and unconditional care creates a space where your pet is not only looked after, but loved on. Being a total free-spirit, I currently possess a large amount of flexibility and an open calendar. Especially around those family holidays. I can offer what few others can in this moment, time, intentionality and availability in pet care. 🗓️✨ As a current cat parent myself, I appreciate when I know my cat is in good hands. This not only relieves my stress, but his as well. I can return to preparing for my trip, meeting, or holiday prep worry-free. I have firsthand experience placing my pet's care into another's hands. It took so much much trial, error, and good luck before I settled on a small roster of people who look out for my baby just as well as I can. My fur child deserves to be just as safe and comfortable in his living arrangements as I am in mine, no matter where I am. Finding that type of care is no small feat either. Assuaging my worries (and his) on top of everything else that traveling demands, can really be the cherry on the top of my stress-out sundae. If you resonate with some of these concerns, then I may be the pet sitter for you. I will read the list of your special care instructions AND follow through on their necessities to soothe your nerves and those of your pet. Given the opportunity, I'd love to be a companion they can count on for meals, play/fun times, walks, and any other special activities you share with your little one. Meanwhile, allowing you to relax and lean into your confidence that your pet is in great hands. So, let me do what is necessary to remedy, not only your anxiety, but your pet's as well. I'd love to be the person for you and your companion. 🤓📝

About: I’ve loved walking and caring for dogs and cats since I was 13 years old. I treat every pet with kindness, patience, and care as if they were my own. I have a flexible schedule and am available most days. Feel free to reach out, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet care needs. I prefer caring for pets in their own home, where they feel comfortable and safe. I follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, care, and love while you’re away, and I always keep their safety and well-being my top priority.

About: Hi, I'm Jaela! I’m an elementary school teacher, and animals of all ages and sizes have been the absolute center of my world for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm surrounded by a wide variety of animals, which taught me from a very young age how to read animal body language, handle different temperaments, and provide compassionate, patient care. Throughout high school and college, I regularly watched and walked dogs and cats. I love house sitting because it allows your pets to stay completely relaxed in their own environment while maintaining their exact daily routines. I come from a family of veterinarians, so I grew up immersed in the world of animal health, safety, and care. As a full-time elementary school teacher, summer is my favorite time for pet care! Because I am on summer break, my schedule is completely wide open. Your pets get my undivided attention, structured routines, and endless love right at home.🏠❤️ As an educator, structure and safety are second nature to me. I focus on keeping your pet’s exact routine. I provide consistent feeding, fresh water, medication if needed, plenty of playtime, and lots of love. I treat your home with total respect, keeping it clean, secure, and tidy while sending you regular photo updates!📷🐾
