Cat Sitting Mount Vernon

“Lori was an amazing cat sitter for our 2 kittens during winter. She visited them every day, and did everything we recommended, she fed them and cleaned litter boxes everyday as well as was on top of their water and feeder. She also played everyday with them with their favorites toys, they loved playing with the laser pointer with her. Kittens were happy all times. Lori did an amazing job inclusive visiting cats during the blizzard. We are happy with her and would recommend her.”

About: I’ve been passionately caring for dogs since I was 13 years old. Over the years, I’ve fostered and adopted multiple dogs, specializing in communication-based training, housebreaking, and custom communication techniques. I’ve successfully trained dogs to express their needs clearly—whether signaling to go outside, asking for water, or communicating when it's mealtime! ​Currently, I balance my college studies with working professionally as a dog handler. Because of my professional background in canine behavior and training, I understand how dogs think, learn, and communicate. Whether your dog needs structured exercise, high-energy playtime, or just a calm, confident handler while you're away, they will be in expert hands. ​Current Fall Schedule (August – December) I balance professional training and college courses, which keeps my routine structured and consistent. I am available for bookings on specific days each week: ​Morning Shift Days (Work 6:00 AM – 2:00 PM): Fully available for afternoon walks, drop-ins, evening visits, and overnight house sitting starting after 2:30 PM. ​Evening Shift Days (Work 2:00 PM – 10:00 PM): Available for early morning walks, breakfast drop-ins, and mid-day visits up until 1:00 PM. ​Overnight House Sitting: Available regularly! As long as your dog can be left comfortably during my work/class hours, I provide full overnight care, evening exercise, and morning routines. ​Winter & Spring Availability (Starting January) Beginning in December, my college semester ends and my availability expands significantly. I will have full, open availability alongside my standard work shifts for drop-ins, walks, and boarding/sitting. ​When staying at or visiting a client's home, safety, clear communication, and keeping your dog happy and comfortable are my top priorities: ​Potty Breaks & Routine Maintenance: I stick strictly to your pet's established routine for outdoor breaks, feeding times, and bedtime to keep their environment feeling familiar and stress-free. ​Appetite & Engagement Solutions: If a dog is feeling anxious or hesitant to eat in a new routine, I use low-impact playtime, light exercise, or gentle mental stimulation to help them settle in, relax, and get their digestive system moving naturally. ​Home Security & Respect: I treat your home with total respect—keeping doors securely locked, maintaining a clean space, and following all specific instructions regarding gated areas, crate routines, or security systems. ​Constant Communication & Updates: You will receive regular photo updates, routine check-ins, and immediate communication so you always have total peace of mind while you're away. ​(Note: I currently do not offer boarding services inside my own home, focusing 100% of my attention on on-site house sitting, drop-in visits, and walking.)

“Kristine was great this holiday season taking care of our cat while we were away. Received lots of photos and updates as usual. Highly recommend!”

“Jorge took fantastic care of our cat! He came twice a day and gave her medicine, and followed all our instructions perfectly. His communication was fantastic! He gave us great, detailed updates and sent photos with each visit. Stanley loved him! We came home to a clean litter box and everything was still tidy and organized. He also brought in a few packages for us… so nice! We felt more than comfortable leaving Stan in his care for a week and will definitely work with him again next time we go away. Thank you so much Jorge!!”

“Elisa was a wonderful sitter for our two kitties. I greatly appreciated the extra effort she took to work with us when our schedule changed due to bad weather. And I know Jack enjoyed getting a little play time!”

About: Hello! I’ve been in the pet care industry for 3 years professionally, and almost my whole life personally through friends and family. I’m an animal lover, and I’m ready to meet some new friends! I used to service dogs in East Midtown and have experience with many breeds and temperaments. I also own cats and have worked professionally as a cat sitter in Chelsea/Downtown. I recently moved to the area and can offer walks, sittings, and boarding. We can set up a free meet and greet to see how we can work together to help your companion thrive. I work 10am through 6pm Monday-Friday for walks, extra charge for anything outside of that time frame and weekends/holidays. Inquire about sittings/boardings. Safety is always my priority when it comes to any sort of service. I follow any given instructions and communicate with the parents if I have any questions/concerns. I’m also CPR certified.

“Jennifer is the *purrfect* kitty sitter! She recently cared for my two senior cats and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. They liked her instantly, even if it took them a little time to fully come out of their shells—but by the end, they *loved* her! Jennifer clearly understands cats and knows how to build trust at their pace. She was reliable, communicative, and sent the sweetest photo updates while I was away. It gave me such peace of mind to know they were in such good hands. If you're looking for someone who will truly connect with your cats and care for them like her own, Jennifer is the one!”

“Karen was amazing! She treated my cat like her own and my cat loved her! I was traveling internationally and had no worries because Karen was always on time or early. She is reliable and thoroughly notes what happens at each visit. She even brought my cat a new little toy to play with.”

About: I’ve had welcomed my first pet ever when I was 10 years old , then in 2012 I’ve have welcome another fur baby to the family . Being around my own personal pets made me love doing dog sitting a lot more so starting in 2013 I’ve decided to volunteer and also become employed with the services of onboarding , dog walking , etc . I love doing my job when it comes to pets because I think of them as my own. I am currently working Monday - Friday but my schedule is also very flexible. I am free on the weekends if services are needed as well. When caring for your pets in your home or my home they are well taken care of between any medications, a routine that they follow I will make sure that while your away they will be left in great hands .

“Ana did a great job taking care of our kitties, even though they are super shy and hid most of the time. She went above and beyond looking for them and making sure they were safe! Absolutely will ask for her help again in the future.”

About: I’ve taken care of my own pets since I was about 14. Cats, dogs, birds, and fish included! Ever since I was a kid, I’ve had a natural love and empathy for all kinds of animals. They still bring me the same amount of joy today, and always will :). At the moment, I have a dog and a chinchilla whom I adore, and taking care of any additional pets will only add on to my joy. At the moment, I am studying from home so my schedule is quite open and flexible. I would be available for both weekdays and weekends! I have a very friendly dog at home that will keep your pet company if they need a companion. Everyone at home is also an animal lover, so your pet will be in great hands!

“As a repeat client, I can say with confidence that Colleen is an excellent pet sitter. She takes care of my senior cat like a family member would. She is great at communication and her level of care is amazing. Thank you!”

About: I’m a caring and responsible pet lover who enjoys spending time with animals. I’m new to providing pet care professionally, but I’m patient, attentive, and committed to following each pet’s routine and needs. I’ll always take the time to get to know your pet and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved I’m available Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 3 PM, with flexible availability on Saturdays. On Sundays, I’m available after 5 PM. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide reliable, attentive care during the times I’m available. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority. I will follow your instructions carefully, keep a close eye on your pet during walks and visits, and make sure they have a calm and safe environment. I’ll also keep you updated during each visit.

About: There hasn’t been a time in my life when I DIDN’T have a pet. Except for right now, that is. As any dog owner/lover will tell you, your dog is an important member of your immediate family. Losing a pet is comparable to losing a family member. Jake, my pit bull, passed away a little over a year ago. The grief and loss was/is hard to get over, and I’m not ready right now for another dog of my own. But I am and always will be an animal lover, and I will take very good care of YOURS! Due to COVID, I’m currently working part-time. And since I’m able to set my own hours and work schedule in this part-time job, I have the luxury and good fortune right now of a flexible and open schedule that can be adjusted at any time. I’m not currently able to care for pets out of my own home here in Yonkers, but I have a car and I am happy to travel to care for your pet at YOUR home or wherever you need me to be.

About: For the past 4 years, friends and family have trusted me to care for their fur babies with the same love, patience, and attention they give them at home. I truly enjoy creating a cozy, comforting space where dogs feel safe, happy, and loved whether that means long walks, playtime, or snuggling on the couch. Every doggie that I care for holds a special place in my heart, and I’m always excited to welcome more furry friends into it. My weekdays are dedicated to work, but once it hits 5:30pm I am available for evening care. I am also fully available on weekends (for multiple visits) and excited to spend quality time caring for your pets whether it’s for a walk and cuddles, or to clean out a litter box and swing around a wand toy. In my home pets are treated like family, some even say they are "spoiled" (haha! whatever that means). Whether yours loves playtime, relaxing, or extra cuddles, I make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and care throughout their visit. My goal is always to create a calm, loving environment where pets can feel happy and cared for.

About: With over 10 years of pet sitting experience, our home has become a second home for countless furry friends. What started as a fun activity with my young son has grown into a true passion we continue to share. Now a spirited teenager, my son still brings the same energy and love to every pet we care for—ensuring each one gets plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. We live in a private apartment in a family-owned three-family house in Lower Westchester. Our home is clean, spacious, and pet-friendly, with a private deck and a small backyard perfect for fresh air and play. We’re also just a short walk from the beautifully updated Yonkers waterfront, where your pet will enjoy scenic strolls and outdoor fun. You won’t find a more dog-loving duo. Whether your pet is high-energy or prefers laid-back lounging, we’re happy to tailor our care to their unique needs and personality. We truly love what we do—and it shows. Feel free to reach out with any questions. We can’t wait to welcome your pet into our home! Pet care is a natural part of our daily routine. Since we’ve been pet sitting for over a decade, we’ve built our schedule around giving pets the attention and care they deserve. Morning and evening walks are part of our daily rhythm, and we make time throughout the day for play, feeding, and cuddle sessions. My teenage son is very involved—he loves helping with walks, playtime, and making sure each pet feels right at home. Whether we have one guest or a few, they’re always integrated into our family life with love and consistency. In our home, pets are treated like family. We provide a safe, clean, and loving environment where they can relax and be themselves. They have access to cozy spaces indoors, a private deck for fresh air, and a small backyard for outdoor time. We stick closely to each pet’s routine—whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, or special care instructions—to ensure a smooth and stress-free stay. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and routines. I make sure pets feel comfortable and secure, keeping things as familiar as possible. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I adapt to their individual needs while maintaining communication with the owner for peace of mind.
