Cat Sitting New Hope

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated pet lover, experienced cat and dog owner, and reliable sitter who genuinely enjoys caring for animals and making them feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I have experience caring for multiple cats and a dog with varying personalities and understand how important routine, patience, and attention to detail are when it comes to pet care. I’m happy to provide feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, medication administration if needed, and regular photo updates for peace of mind. Outside of pet care, I work in customer service focused roles that require responsibility, communication, organization, and staying calm under pressure which all translate well to pet sitting. I’m also very active and enjoy dog walking as a way to stay outdoors and moving. As a pet mom myself, I know how important trust is when someone is caring for your pets and home, and I strive to provide dependable, attentive care for every animal I work with! I currently work an 8-5 in-office job but am always up early for a drop in or a walk before work, or afterwards for a play session or drop in! Weekends are usually wide open for me and I would love to spend a portion of them providing care and love to pets missing their owners. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine as best I can and creating a calm, comfortable experience while their owners are away. I carefully follow feeding schedules, exercise and enrichment needs, medication instructions, and any household preferences provided by the owner. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I adjust my approach accordingly—whether that means active playtime, long walks, or simply providing a quiet and reassuring presence. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own, with a focus on safety, reliability, and attentive care.

About: I have cared for animals since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have asked me to petsit, walk, bath and help care for their animals. I can care for puppies/kittens to seniors and everyone in-between. I rely on positive reinforcement for training. I can administer medications, trim nails and other care required. I have worked as a Vet Tech and currently I am in school to become a certified Vet Tech. I am currently in school with mostly online classes so I can seamlessly accommodate your pets care. I will send daily updates and/or photos if requested. I care for your pets from the comfort of your home giving you piece of mind while traveling while your pet will be less stressed.

“Jessica has been so great with Phil! He needs to stretch his legs during our longer work days and Jess has been wonderful! She has given us the peace of mind as we transition to working out of the home full time!”

“Maia took wonderful care of our cat, Princess Leia, while we were out of town for four days. She was an excellent communicator, keeping us updated and giving us peace of mind that everything was going smoothly. When we returned home, both our house and our cat were clearly well cared for. Princess Leia was happy to see us, but she also seemed calm, relaxed, and content, which is always the best sign that she's been in good hands. Maia's drop-in visits gave us confidence that our cat was getting the attention and care she needed while we were away. We would absolutely trust Maia with our home and pets again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter.”

About: Hello! My name is Andy, and I have many years of experience loving and taking care of all sorts of animals! Over the years, my family has had a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, fish, and bunnies—and we’ve also watched many, many more than that short-term. We are familiar with many types of animals and feel comfortable following your specific instructions for their care. I love animals of all kinds and will treat your pets lovingly with the care you expect and deserve. Spoiling your pet with a lot of love and personalized attention while keeping them safe and secure are my main goals as your pet sitter. I will be as active or relaxed as your dog needs- anything your dog requires for a safe and happy stay, I will gladly provide. I strive to always carefully follow your instructions. I am an animal advocate with extensive animal handlers and training experience. For many years, I have worked as an animal volunteer and foster parent for animals to be adopted. I have a soft spot for dogs of all kinds, and over the years have personally adopted spaniels, terriers, doodles, shepherds, and cats. I promise to treat your pet as if it is my own, play with it, give it tons of attention and love, and make sure it is fed and comfy while in my care. I have cared for my neighbors and friends pets for the past 30 years. I'm known by all as being a loving pet mom. I am looking forward to meeting you and your pet(s) soon! I am available daily for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. I have experience training dogs and working with rescued animals. Our family dogs are rescues and fosters, and they were trained and cared for by me. They are now certified therapy animals. Also, I feel comfortable giving medications and caring for older animals or those with special needs. I have experience working with animals that need extra attention or care due to a rough past or neglect. As their foster mom, my dogs are rescues that came from neglectful situations and had to be nursed back to health. Both have undergone amazing transformations and are happy, healthy, loving, and playful now. I’ve taken care of many very small dogs and understand their specific needs intimately, as my family owns a number of small pets—and I’ve taken care of larger dogs and understand their needs and likes too, as I’ve supervised the maturation and training of several larger dogs. Speaking of training—I’m confident with pets of any level of training! In fact, if anything I’m something of a good influence on untrained animals, owing to my experience training animals over the years. Pets, especially clever pets, love to get a command correct and get a treat for it! As far as more “exotic” pets, I’m comfortable with a lot! I think animals are fascinating and love to meet new ones—even in elementary school I was one of the kids who took care of our class animals, including our snakes (a rainbow boa and a constrictor), and our iguana (aptly named “Iggy”)—so I’m not afraid of interesting animal friends! I’ll gladly watch your peafowl or your domesticated fox or your ferret, and I’ll take care of it like it was my own.

We would love to connect with you at a meet and greet or schedule a play date at a park to get to know you. I'm available every day of the week to walk, house sit, or drop-in on your pets. I enjoy playing with and photographing the animals I care for, giving treats, and reinforcing training. I all love animals and think of our pets as members of our family. We will treat your pet as if they are one of the family too, with much love, cuddles, and stimulating play! I am a photographer and used to work at a pet kennel, but recently moved, so I am available daily for any service you require. I will follow any instructions you leave very carefully, and will communicate with you multiple times daily to let you know how your pets are doing. My schedule is flexible and I'm ready to accommodate your pet care needs, and will send you photos of your happy pet as often as you like! I am currently working from home and am able to dedicate a lot of time to care for your pets!

About: I provide calm, attentive care for pets of all ages and needs, including seniors and animals with chronic or complex medical conditions. My experience includes: • Senior pets and mobility‑limited animals • Chronic and debilitating conditions • Medication administration: oral, topical, and injections (IM, SQ, IV) • Strict and specialized diets • Household pets beyond dogs and cats: reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects, and birds (Drop‑In Visits only - please message me with your pet’s species and care needs) My focus is always on gentle handling, maintaining each pet’s normal routine, and creating a safe, low‑stress environment while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I don’t work outside the home due to health limitations, so caring for your pets, along with my own will be my only focus other than school. Your pets receive consistent attention, predictable routines, and a calm presence throughout the day. I do not offer boarding, but I’m happy to care for your pets in your home. I can take your dog for walks, play with them in your yard, or provide enrichment indoors. If needed, I can crate your dog safely and make crate time positive with enrichment and comfort items. My goal is always to follow your routine, so your pet feels secure.

About: Growing up with both a dog and a cat, I’ve always had a deep understanding of the love and responsibility that comes with caring for pets. I’ve spent years walking, playing, and bonding with pets, so I know exactly what it takes to make them feel at ease. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve been fortunate to look after other pets, from energetic dogs who need daily adventures to cats who just want a bit of attention and a cozy spot to relax. I approach every pet with patience, affection, and respect, making sure they feel safe and well-cared for while you’re away. I’m excited to meet your pet and provide them with the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority! I am a teacher and will be available most weekends and some weekdays, depending on my schedule and school breaks. I will be happy to accommodate the best I can. As a sitter, I would treat your home and pets with the utmost respect and care, just as I would with my own. I make sure to follow their routine, offering playtime and attention to ensure they feel safe and loved. I’m organized, clean, and reliable. You can trust that your pets and home are in good hands!

“Jamie did great dropping in on our puppy and dog. Our puppy was having tummy issues and Jamie was flexible with our change in plans and took great care of both pups!”

About: Hello, my name is Hanna! I live in Crystal, MN, and I’m a dedicated pet lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. I’ve done many overnight stays and house-sitting gigs for families who trust me to keep their pets happy, safe, and well-loved. I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my whole life, and I currently share my home with my sweet 7-year-old cat, Kanga, who I adore coming home to every day. My own 3-year-old Golden Aussie has megaesophagus, so I’m very experienced with managing chronic conditions, administering medications (pills, liquids, you name it), and following special feeding routines. I also cared for my parents Golden who had epilepsy his whole life, so special-needs pups are no problem, I’m patient, attentive, and always put their comfort first. I have a very flexible weekday schedule right now, so I’m available for drop-ins, walks, occasional boarding, or longer stays during the week. Weekends can be a bit unpredictable, but I’m happy to discuss what works best for you and your pet! I’d love the chance to meet you and your furry family. Feel free to message me to set up a free Meet & Greet. I can’t wait to help care for your pets like they’re my own! I have a very flexible weekday schedule right now, so I’m available for drop-ins, walks, occasional boarding, or longer stays during the week. Weekends can be a bit unpredictable, but I’m happy to discuss what works best for you and your pet! I have a fully fenced in yard and an extremely friendly golden Aussie. I can take your dog on walks or let them run around in a yard, whatever is preferred. I can crate your pet if desired, but I love to cuddle up with them on the couch/ bed.

“Connie's love for Oreo is so comforting. We love having Connie visit him.”

“Ciboney is an awesome and reliable dog sitter! This is the 2nd time hiring her to watch our little dog. We were out of town for one week, and Ciboney stopped by twice a day to check on him. All his needs were met. She is very communicative and gave us updates on every visit. We feel comfortable working with her and would highly recommend her to anyone needing a dog sitter. 🐶”

About: I have had experience dog sitting since I was 10 years old. I grew up taking care of dogs in my neighborhood and my family, and I have experience sitting for dogs big and small! I am currently working a part time job and will have afternoons available to play with your pups! I also am available on weekends the full day to assist as needed. I know every pet is different, so I'll take the time to learn their routine and make sure they feel comfortable while you're away. I'll follow all of your instructions carefully, keep your home clean and secure, and give your pet lots of attention, playtime, and affection. I'll also send updates and photos so you always know how they're doing.
