Cat Sitting Munroe Falls

“We cannot say enough good things about Kristen! She was dependable, a great communicator, administered medication flawlessly, and became a safe person for our cat while we were away. He absolutely loved her and we will definitely be reaching out again!”

About: I’ve had cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, a horse, hamsters…. Just about any pet you could imagine. I love them all. I’ve taken care of not only my own animals but also those of friends, neighbors and family. I’ve potty trained several of my own dogs as well as palliative care for older dogs. I am an older guy with time on my hands. I really enjoy being with animals. I would like to spend the majority of my day giving attention and care when owners feel they need a little help. I treat all animals with empathy, kindness and love. My animals are cared for 24 hours a day. Play and fun are as important as food and water.

“Elsie was great for me. This was my first time leaving my cat alone for over a day. She made the experience stress free. She was very responsive with updates and check ins.”

“Madison took care of Mason while we were away and did a great job. She was reliable and kept everything running smoothly. Mason seemed comfortable and well taken care of when we got back. Communication was easy, which we really appreciated. We’d be happy to have her watch him again!”

“All good. Thanks!”

About: With 10+ years of hands-on clinical veterinary experience, combined with a lifetime of growing up around, caring for, and working with animals, I bring over a decade of cumulative experience in veterinary medicine, pet care, and animal husbandry. My experience with animals began long before my professional veterinary career and includes dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, cows, horses, and many other animals. This lifelong connection has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, care, handling, and well-being that extends far beyond the clinical setting. Throughout my veterinary career, I have consistently pursued continuing education through seminars, conferences, specialized training, and additional coursework to continually expand my knowledge and strengthen my clinical skill set. I have maintained **BLS and ALS CPR certification since 2020** and have been **Fear Free Certified since 2018**, along with holding numerous additional certifications, continuing education achievements, and awards earned throughout my career. The majority of my professional veterinary experience has been concentrated in **surgery, emergency medicine, and intensive care/ICU**, where attention to detail, critical thinking, and the ability to recognize subtle changes in a patient's condition are essential. These experiences have taught me to be highly observant and proactive, with a strong understanding of early warning signs and indicators that may suggest a patient is developing a problem. I take pride in being attentive to the small details that can make a significant difference in an animal's outcome. Pets are my passion, and pet people are my people. I genuinely enjoy building relationships with both animals and their families and believe exceptional veterinary care should be built on compassion, communication, trust, and a little fun along the way. Whether I am caring for a critically ill patient, assisting with surgery, supporting a fearful/nervous pet, or simply making an animal's day a little better, I bring the same level of dedication and enthusiasm to every patient. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, valued, and well cared for—and every pet parent deserves to know that their beloved companion is in capable, compassionate hands. Your furry family members will receive the highest level of care, attention, and compassion I can provide—and we'll have some fun along the way. I am comfortable and experienced in caring for patients across a wide range of ages, conditions, and levels of acuity. My clinical experience includes the safe administration and management of oral, injectable, and topical medications, as well as monitoring patients receiving ongoing or complex treatment plans. I am comfortable working with advanced and late-stage disease, chronic and complex medical conditions, hospice and end-of-life care, geriatric patients, pediatrics, neonates, and emergency cases. My background in surgery, emergency medicine, and ICU/critical care has strengthened my ability to remain calm and attentive in high-pressure situations while recognizing subtle changes in a patient's condition and responding appropriately. I understand that each patient requires an individualized approach, and I am committed to providing compassionate, thorough, and attentive care whether a patient is recovering from surgery, managing a chronic illness, beginning life as a neonate, facing an emergency, or approaching the end of life. I am equally comfortable providing hands-on nursing care, assisting with treatment plans, communicating observations to the veterinary team, educating and supporting pet parents, and advocating for the patient's comfort and overall quality of life. Pet care has been a huge part of my daily and weekly routine for more than 10 years. Whether I’m working in veterinary medicine or caring for pets in someone’s home, I’m accustomed to making animal care a priority and building it naturally into my everyday routine. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality, habits, routines, and individual needs. For me, providing consistent, attentive care isn’t simply a job—it’s something I’ve built my life around and truly love doing. I approach every pet as an individual and tailor my care to their specific personality, routine, medical needs, and comfort level. Whether I am caring for a pet in my own home or in a client's home, my priority is always to provide a **safe, calm, consistent, and loving environment** that feels as close to their normal routine as possible. I am comfortable caring for pets with a wide range of needs, including puppies and kittens, seniors, anxious or fearful pets, medically complex patients, and animals requiring medications or additional monitoring. I can administer **oral, injectable, and topical medications**, follow detailed feeding and treatment instructions, monitor changes in behavior or condition, and recognize when something may warrant veterinary attention. My background in emergency, critical care, ICU, and surgery has made me particularly attentive to subtle changes that may indicate a problem. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect that I am also caring for someone's home and follow their instructions closely. I maintain established feeding, medication, exercise, potty, sleep, and enrichment routines whenever possible. I provide regular updates and photos so owners know how their pets are doing and can feel connected while they are away. When caring for pets in my own home, I focus on creating a secure and comfortable environment while considering each animal's temperament, energy level, social preferences, and individual needs. I believe pets shouldn't simply be "watched" while their owners are away—they should receive attention, companionship, enrichment, affection, and quality care. Ultimately, my goal is simple: I want your pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, and I want you to have complete peace of mind knowing they are in capable and compassionate hands.

“She is great and truly cares for animals! She is very helpful as well and always on time and a great communicator!”

About: My name is Mariah and I am 29 years old. I have had the pleasure of having dogs all my life! Along with dogs, I have had birds, hamsters, lizards, cats, hedgehog, frogs & a pet pig as well! I am going to school for my Vet Tech degree. I also worked for a pet rescue called Paws and Prayers for about a year, so I have a lot of experience with scared & shy dogs and cats. I absolutley love being around and caring for animals, it’s always been a very strong passion of mine. I love being out doors, hiking and being part of nature. If you have any other pets that need care, I am not limited to just dogs. I am very fond of all living creatures! I would love to start here by taking care of the pets. I will take care of your loving pet as if they were my own!! :) I love to travel, but when I’m in the area I have a very open schedule! I’m always available to hangout with your pet :) I have a very cozy place that your pet will love! Think of it as a pet resort! I also love to go hiking in the woods I can take your pet for a light stroll around the neighborhood or if you have a sporty pup, I can do a hike in the CVNP!

About: I have experience working in an animal shelter so I know how to care for and manage animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I have also ridden horses from a very young age so no animal is too small or large for me! I am currently a part-time student so I have a flexible schedule but I am most available on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, as well as on the weekends. I provide them loving and attentive care by following each pet’s routine, keeping them comfortable and safe, maintaining a clean environment and by of course giving them plenty of affection.

About: Growing up with dogs as a part of the family I have taken care of them my whole life. When I was 15 my family brought home a new puppy and I didn’t have a summer job, so she was my responsibility. Over the years I have taken care of dogs of all ages from energetic puppies to senior pups that need a little more love and understanding. I have administered medications and eye drops with ease and few trick up my sleeves. I enjoy having training sessions with the dogs and even teaching them a new trick while their family is away. This helps give them something to focus on and encourages bonding between us. I would be honored to take care of your furry family member while you’re away. I'm currently have a hybrid work schedule and would love to help out your family while I have the time. While in my current status I can do more walks, potty breaks as needed. Potty break is the first and foremost needed when I arrive at a client's home. Then a walk, a little time for some training and a little bit of play as well. It's just as important they have some mental stimulation.

About: I’m currently living on campus at my college and I come from a company in my hometown called HomeWard Bound which is a pet-care company that is very similar to Rover. I have many months of experience which lead me to enjoy this job and wanting to continue it when I live on campus. Over the summer I will be mainly free since my priority is occupying my time with taking care of animals and learning more about them! I care with patience and trust. I allow the pet to warm up to me if needed, no forcing. I follow instructions thoroughly since I have experience from taking care of numerous amount of animals.

About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was 11 and still care for them currently. I have also grown up with my friends dogs, as well as my grandparents dogs. My best friend has two dogs over 100 pounds that I am with often! I have also volunteered at Portage County Animal Protective League back in middle school, where my aunt works. I have also cat sitted for my aunt numerous times! I have nothing but passion and empathy for all animals. :) I am currently a student at Kent State University, and I work part time in retail. I only have classes for a few hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays. This schedule will make it easy to fit pet care into my daily routine! I will treat your home with care as if it were my own, as well as your fur babies. To me, animals are family and deserve the best.

About: I have always grown up with dogs and cats. The last 20 years I have always had an Italian mastiff by my side, and I discovered my love of animals at a very young age. I understand the importance of patience, and an eye to detail when it comes to caring for other peoples animals, and I make sure whether I animal sit for a friend/coworker/stranger how important it is that the animals receive the best care as if they were my own. I currently work in dental care 4 days a week full time, and in my other 3 days of free time I would love to spend it helping someone care for their animals (or during my work week). I have a very easy going schedule and would love to fill up more of my free time with pets. I care for my own two cats currently I love making sure I have a set list of all the expectations needed to care for an animal that is not mine. Nothing is more important to me than making sure the owners mind is at ease while away, not interrupting the animals daily routine, and making sure they are cared for in the best way possible.

About: i’ve had pets my whole life and i’ve always loved them. i’ve loved taking care of them and loving them. i’d love to take care of yours too. i work part time and go to school august-may but i still have plenty of time to help take care of your pet. my schedule changes but i can always fit in the time for a fuzzy friend. i have a nice home that has good space and my parents have a big yard i can also take them to. i enjoy walks too!

“Riley did a great job taking care of my 2 dogs! I would definitely recommend her and would use her next time we need a sitter!”

“Kadeah provided excellent care for our aging calico. She diligently cleaned the litter box and the surrounding area and followed our instructions for feeding. We highly recommend her services.”

About: My experience with dogs isn't just a hobby; it's a core part of my daily life. As a proud dog owner myself, I have years of firsthand, 24/7 experience managing everything that comes with a happy pup—from daily walks and feeding routines to understanding dog behavior and, most importantly, giving plenty of love and attention. I also have experience providing overnight care for other people's dogs. I know how important it is to create a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for a dog in a new space, and I'm committed to maintaining your dog's schedule to make them feel secure and right at home. I am currently a college student and I am looking to earn extra cash over my breaks when I am visiting home and I do have a lot of free time. When your dog stays with me, they are treated like a member of my own family. My goal is to be their "home away from home."
