Cat Sitting in Mount Vernon

“My Mom needed a cat sitter. Previously, she had some friends who would watch her cat for her, but this time they were unavailable. My wife and I had used Rover before, and I found her on this site. Kelly did a meet and greet and we had a really good conversation with her! We were confident in her abilities and commitment for my Mom's cat. She send photos (haha, some with some great commentary 😆) for each check-in. My Mom was able to get away with my wife and I, and have not have to worry about her cat being taken care of. We'll be sure to utilize Kelly again when my Mom is traveling. Thanks Kelly!”

“Melissa was amazing!!! I was so worried about leaving our cats while we were away but she was absolutely wonderful and immediately put my mind at ease. She posted photos and videos and gave the best updates! I’ll definitely use her again in the future and I cannot recommend her enough!!! She was perfect (and that’s really an understatement). Thank you, Melissa!!! You’re the best! :)”

About: Hello from Katie! Moved here from the Midwest about a year ago! I have owned dogs my whole life and couldn't imagine life without them. I worked at the dog kennel next to my house growing up and learned how to give exceptional care to dogs of all sizes. I have since worked full time at a horse farm and love animals all shapes and sizes. I have two dogs of my own that are my babies. I will enjoy my time with your dog and make sure they enjoy their time with me. After working full time I know how stressful it can be to make sure your pet is properly exercised everyday. Your pet will be safe as I make their walk as enjoyable as possible! Please reach out with any questions and concerns you may have.

About: I’ve taken care of animals all of my life, big and small. This fills my whole heart to know your animals will be shown the care they need. I am currently in school Monday through Friday but on the weekends I am willing and available to tend your animal needs. I have a part time job on sundays but can work around. If gone for longer than a week I am willing to see through the week. Due to having my own animals, I will only be visiting homes to walk or play with. With lots of care, I can offer stopping in home and letting your animal out. Feeding and playing as long as I need too.

About: I have owned dogs my entire life and I am very good at reading cues, handling behavioral issues, and open to all personalities! I have lots of experience with larger dogs primarily pitbulls, labs, terriers, shepherds, and cattle dogs. I have always loved animals and I understand how difficult it can be to leave your in someone else's care. I am open to dogs cuddling with me, sleeping with me, loving on me and vice versa. I just moved to North Carolina and am looking forward to spending some time doing something that I love while getting to know new people and their pets. I look forward to meeting you and your furbabies! *My Husband is a photographer if you are interested in mini sessions or packages please message me! Sometimes he tags along during my dog sitting jobs and if clients choose he will provide photography services.

“Emily was amazing! I received photos everyday and the cats loved her. I have one adult female and two male kittens and I got photos of her playing with all of them. The house was clean when I got back and everyone was happy.”

About: A little background: I have been a pet owner since I was a child. I grew up on a small farm complete with horses, chickens, rabbits, goats, cats and of course dogs. I'm the current owner of a German shepherd, 2 Pomeranians, 2 cats, 5 horses, multiple chickens, and rabbits. I have years of animal handling experience through volunteering at the Central Florida Zoo and Audubon Center for Birds of Prey. I've also owned many exotic pets like turtles, fish and birds. My passion for animals has caused me to pursue a degree in environmental sciences and biology from the University of Central Florida. I love all animals and believe they should be taken care of to best of our abilities. I have many long time customer references available upon request. I live on a growing homestead that requires me to check in daily on my animals and pets. As long as I can check in on my farm we should be able to continue your normal pet care routine. In situations of conflicting schedules, I have an assistant available to help care for the dogs during the day. We can discuss our schedules and figure out what works best for everyone's needs. What you can expect from me: While your dog(s) is in my care I will provide them with the love and attention they deserve and will strive to keep them as close to their normal schedule as possible. I will prepare their food in whatever manner they are used to including any special instructions, dietary supplements, heating or mixing they may require. As the pet-mom of a Pomeranian with liver issues, I understand how important a consistent diet is for our pets and I promise to continue your dog's usual regimen. I will take your dog on potty breaks/walks as often as you request as I strive to keep to your dogs normal routine. I will send texts/pictures/emails/updates of your pets on request. I will respect your household and will leave everything as you left it. I will check mail, water plants, and care for other kinds of pets (cats, fish, exotics, small pets) at your request. I look forward to meeting you and your dog(s) and for the opportunity to provide care for them while you're away.

“We are so thankful to Madison for checking in on our cat while we were away for our wedding. It meant so much to have someone there for her while we were enjoying the biggest day of our lives. She did everything we needed her to do while there and our cat warmed right up to her!”

About: I’ve had pets ever since I was a little girl, from hamsters to dogs and everything in between. I have two cats and two dogs of my own and firmly believe that pets are family. I am happy to love on your furry friend, take them for a walk, or just have a cuddle session. I currently work part-time and am looking for something fun to do on the side. Getting to see your pet is a bonus to my every day life! My attention will always be on your pet, as I would treat them as my own. I will follow whatever instructions you provide me and make sure that your pet feels safe and cared for!

About: I work as a Kennel Technician taking care and loving the dogs who have been pulled from kill shelters to rehabilitate them, so we are able to relocate them and find them good homes. I also worked with my Uncle on his ranch with his rescue dogs and other farm animals. In the near futuer I will be going back to school to study Zoology. I've been around dogs and cats my entire life. I have a strong love for animals and I'm a very patient person. I know how to treat them the way they should be treated. I'd like to think I'm amazing at what I do and not only am I great with animals but I love working with them. I will love your dogs and take care of them just as I do my own!

“Marina was excellent! She stayed in constant communication with me, and treated my dogs as if they were her own. Will definitely be using her again!”

“Ashley was absolutely amazing. This was our first time leaving pops with anyone and as soon as her first visit was over, we knew he was in great hands. She took pictures and spent so much time with her. It made our trip even better because we were not worried about a thing at home with our cat.”

About: Something that sets me apart from other sitters is that I truly bond with animals and go out of my way to make sure they are comfortable. Not too long ago a hawk hit my car and I pulled over to pick it up and brought it to the NC Raptor Center; they were able to save it and released it a couple weeks later. I have two Mainecoon cats myself that I consider part of the family. I've taught the older one how to play fetch with bottle caps and socks and both cats also come when I call their name! I've walked dogs and house sit cats and dogs for neighbors, friends and family for years. I welcome all dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. For my personal animals, I work 8 hours but take care of my animals at all times besides that! Morning/nightly feeds, constant potty breaks. For clients, I'm available Friday-Sunday all day. The rest of the week 4PM or later but can do morning/nights if needed for extended stays. Because I have so many animals myself, I only do walking/sitting in clients homes/neighborhoods. I don't like to disrupt my animals environment. The same goes for clients animals. I treat them with the same love, respect and attention just like I do with my own. I really am good with watching behavior changes and figuring out a solution! The animals comfort is top priority!

About: I offer pet sitting for cats & dogs, puppies under a year old are my speciality! I am a working professional in the puppy business, I work for a reputable puppy adoption club whose phenominal practices of prestine good health and well being for puppies I have carried into my own home! A mother and a wife, I spend my days giving care, searching for more ways to learn and heal. In my down time I spend time with my family, craft jewelry and play video games. I work close to home, some days from home and I believe pet therapy is an essential and that all you need in life is peace, love & a dog! (Please dont tell my cat I said this!)

“Elizabeth took great care of our cats! She took pictures and provided detailed descriptions of each visit, and took initiative when necessary. We would absolutely hire her again!”
