Cat Sitting in Nevada City

About: Been a proud owner of goats, cats, chickens, reptiles and dogs. I've had experience in the veterinary field, worked with and cared for livestock and house pets. I am currently working full time as a CNA, my schedule is kinda wacky. I work PM shifts from 2:30pm-10:30pm, on a four on and two off rotation. In my own home I have reptiles and two cats, sometimes we do have a dog around. If your pet is staying with me or I’m keeping them company in your own home, I always am engaging with the pet. Any opportunity to play and have some fun, we’re doing it! If they’re more laid back and want to snooze next to me, I will relax with them.

“Annie is a wonderful pet sitter. My two nervous dogs fell in love with her immediately and she has been a huge help to me in managing their anxiety and training issues. She is flexible, loving, and patient with the dogs and can be firm when she needs to be. Annie has been doing drop-in visits at my house and is punctual, friendly, responsible and professional. I am happy to recommend Annie's services to any other prospective clients - she is a delight to work with!”

About: I’ve had my own pets (cats & dogs) for over 2 decades. My pets are my life! I currently have 2 Senior dogs. Im the go-to that sits for all of my friends’ pets. I’m comfortable with all ages of dogs and cats. I have no problem cleaning up messes or giving meds. I will treat your pups and kitties with all the love that I give my own. I recently left a job I didn’t like and decided to try something I love, which is being with animals. My schedule is pretty wide open and flexible. My prices are negotiable. I’m happy to watch your pets at your house. I’m flexible and easy going and open to ideas. Your babes will always be kept safe and happy.

About: I took impeccable care of my English Mastiff for over 10 years. More recently I have found joy in pet sitting for other people's dogs and cats in their homes. I work remotely and have a lot of scheduling flexibility, especially on weekdays. I'm available to stay in your home with your pet during weekdays. My other work (accounting/finance & admin) is done remotely anywhere I have reliable WiFi. My availability on weekends is very limited. I provide a calm, steady energy and will stay with your pet(s) in your home so they can remain in a familiar environment. I love taking dogs on walks.

“Natalie was awesome! I came home to very happy cats even a thank-you note. Natalie was super reliable and communicative and totally helped me out with my last-minute request, for which I'm super grateful.”

About: Hi! I’m a dependable and patient pet lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. Whether it’s energetic walks, playtime, or just keeping your pet company, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have experience caring for cats ., and I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, basic grooming, and giving lots of attention. I understand that every pet has their own personality, so I take the time to learn what makes them happiest. “I’m currently in an Ayurvedic internship with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. I truly enjoy being around animals and will make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.” “I prioritize safety, consistency, and making pets feel comfortable in their environment. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, routines, and any specific care needs. In a client’s home, I respect the space, keep things clean, and maintain your pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. I’m attentive during walks and make sure pets are secure, supervised, and safe at all times. I take time to build trust with each animal, paying attention to their behavior and comfort level. Whether your pet is energetic or more shy, I adjust my care to meet their needs and make sure they feel calm, safe, and well cared for.”

“Cydney did an amazing job watching our cats over the holiday. Cydney did great learning how to administer pills to one cat and feeding and cleaning up after both cats. She was very communicative with updates and on time with her drop ins and we appreciated coming home to a clean house and happy cats. Would absolutely recommend her.”

About: I’ve lived with dogs my entire life—everything from Pomeranians and Shih Tzus to Rottweilers and Great Pyrenees—and I’m a cat person, too! I’m now based in Nevada City with my Shih Tzu, Radio, and would love to continue building connections in the community. I work remotely for a professional pet sitting company in Nashville, TN, where I also serve as the Event Manager for Rescue Puppy Yoga. Previously, I was part of the team at The Farmer’s Dog, where I gained extensive knowledge about canine health and nutrition. While my primary role is administrative and remote, I regularly provide dog walking and pet sitting services in Nashville as well. I’m Pet CPR certified and hold multiple FetchFind certifications. I’ve been working in the pet industry for as long as I can remember, starting as a dog walker and pet sitter in my early teens. Over the years, I’ve built my client base through both word of mouth and professional pet care companies, gaining well-rounded experience and a deep commitment to quality care. Pet care is all I do! My small dog Radio just has to fit into that routine as well if house sitting. I have 24/7 availability unless I am booked. I’m available to care for your pet for as much as you need given the scope of each service. While highly unlikely, the longest I would allow a pet to be alone is 4 hours when pet sitting.

“Natalie did a great job of taking care of my 3 pups and kitties while I was away for the weekend. She was very caring and communicative, and clearly loves animals. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”

About: *Prices are negotiable, and of course depend on situation/timing* I love all animals and have had many kinds since I was really little... mice, chickens, horses, and everything in-between. I have experience with small dogs, large dogs, all different breeds and ages. Same with cats and other small animals. I am also stronger than I look, and have had a lot of experience with very large, very strong dogs... even with walking a few of them at a time. I trained my own dogs since I was about 10 years old, so I know how they think, and a lot about their behavioral functions. We also bred a few of my cats and dogs growing up, so I have a lot of experience with new born pups and kittens, all the way up to senior. I love doing fun activities with dogs and cats, so I don't mind making sure they stay active and have a lot to take their mind off missing their parents!

“It was great to have Amy take care of Gracie. I feel Amy is super reliable and it's nice to have someone you can count on, especially regarding my little kitty, whom I love so much. I would highly recommend Amy!”

About: I’ve raised dogs my entire life including managing four litters of puppies in high school. I have walk, fed and bathed dogs since I could walk myself. Since starting graduate school I have been helping to train and raise a now two year old year old Sheepa-doodle. I’m currently in school part-time but have time to walk and play with your pup most of the week. I’m generally available for overnight house sitting as well throughout the week. If it’s a school day I can work to fit activity in with dog outside of my studies. I do my best to meet the activity, feeding and schedule set by the dog owner of each dog. I am communicative to make sure each of the dogs individual needs are being met.

About: I have experience caring for dogs aging from 8 weeks to 15 years. I had 4 dogs of my own, I now have 2. Experience includes: potty training, positive reinforcement, disciplining unwanted behavior with vocal tones and hand gestures, playing/exercise, cuddling/affection, feeding, giving medicine, etc. My schedule is mostly flexible right now so I am available to do any day of the week and can work in the early afternoons to late afternoons. I have a fenced yard and two adult males that are mostly friendly. One is 3 and is high energy and loves to wrestle and play while the other is older and more relaxed.

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and all sorts of animals in our house. We would often foster animals growing up, and had two dogs in my childhood. My partner and I committed to a new doggo for us in August 2020 - a cuddly, loving Cavapoo named Bebe. I love being outside with her, and we frequently run together, play fetch together, and stretch together. I have also loved teaching and training her since her puppyhood. Potty training, sit, come, fetch, dance, down, roll over, walk, run, stay, big jump, up, down, and more. We have her crate trained and think that the mental stimulation in this regard is very important. I'm actually playing fetch with her right now! I am an Assistant Director at a summer camp and work 30 hours a week from home in the non-summer season. I generally take the dogs out in the morning for about an hour of fetch and stretching and morning poop, then do some training with them in my lunch break, and then go for a run or walk in the evening after I am done before dinner. I am neat, tidy, and responsible. I am an eagle scout, and was always taught to leave a place cleaner than I found it. :) If I am staying at a home, I will bring my laptop and work from there, and keep my routine similar to the schedule outlined above.
