Cat Sitting in New Philadelphia

“Rebecca did an awesome job with my two dogs. She brought them toys, let them run play, and exercise and they just loved her! She was great at sending me pictures and keeping me updated each time she was at my home. I will definitely use her services again! Thank you, Rebecca?”

“Leah was great for our 2 kitties. Very communicative, provided pictures during her visits and responded quickly via text. We did a meet and greet before we booked, felt very comfortable with Leah after meeting her. We will definitely be using her again for our next vacation. Thank you Leah!”

“Laci cared for our dog for an entire week as well as several weekends. Laci is a caring and attentive caretaker. She gave my dog extra attention and belly scratches while we were out of town. Ellie really misses us when we’re gone and can become anxious. Laci was so patient with her and helped her remain calm while we were gone. We are able to have a worry free vacation and know that Ellie is in good hands while in Laci’s care. We will continue to trust Laci to care for our dog in the future.”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for many, many years. All sizes and breeds are welcome and will be treated with lots of love With my current pets, potty, food, and snack times will all match up with no issues. I am home all day and night for any special needs or extra care that is needed. I am very in tune with each pet's needs. Separate areas can be accommodated if needed. Any choking hazards or other pet dangers are checked for each day. Fence gates and perimeter are also checked each day to ensure a safe enclosure. Pets will also be monitored while outdoors.

“Mykaela was great! She is so attentive to the animals she cares for and I would recommend her to anyone! She watched my two dogs for me!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs ever since I was a little girl. I’m always the person people go to if they need their pets cared for! I would love to help you out by having fun with your pet. I’m currently working a job part time(1-2 days a week) so i’ll have plenty of time of time to love care for your cat or dog! I provide care exclusively at your home to ensure your pet stays comfortable and stress-free in their own environment. I don’t currently offer in-home services at my residence. Thank you for understanding!

About: I've had a dogs growing up, five of them being German shepherd and the other four being a lab and two mutts and a dachshund. We currently have two German shepherds (my dad's) but I walk them a ton and I spend a lot of time taking care of them, and then we have a dachshund who I just got from the place I work at. The place I work does dog boarding/daycare/training. I am a kennel tech so I just take care of all the boarding and daycare doggies. And on the weekends I also take care of all the training dogs when/if the trainers are away. I have worked there for a year and absolutely love it. I have had to deal with so many different dogs and their personalities and I've definitely learned to have a ton of patience with the job. I have been working in general since I was 14. I started at some neighbouring farms, doing farm work so I could ride their horses and earn some money. I then did a couple restaurant jobs and then found the place I currently work at. I have done dog sitting and cat sitting before many times, sometimes for family or friends of family who I don't know but I am happy to help out. The most I have dealt with at one time was seven dogs in total. I have watched people's dogs get trained while at work and I have been trained to use an e-collar and a prong collar so I am able to use those correctly! I really love my job, it means a lot to me I get to be in that environment and I'm depended on to keep them all safe and happy. I'm a college student and I have classes from 11 to 3 on Monday, Wednesday, Friday (a two hour gap from 12 to 2). And I have classes from 9 to 3 on Tuesday and Thursday (a three hour gap from 11 to 2). So there's time in between for me to stop in! For drop ins, depending on how far, I like to at least be there 3 to 4 times a day. I do have school so I'll stop in between my breaks if needed. like to hang out with them for a while each visit. For over-night or all day stays I will just hang around the house with them or if I have work I will go and then come straight back. I will very likely do walks if they can. I'm an active person, that's what I like about having active dogs, they kinda force me to do that. I play frisbee alot with my own dogs and play a whole ton, so if that's what you're dog is into then thats perfect. I'm always willing to give extra attention.

“Shannon was great! My pets really enjoyed being cared for by her. She was very communicative with how the visits went. The pets were happy and calm when I arrived home from traveling. Highly recommend!”

About: I fell in love with animals at a young age when I bonded tightly with the old family cat at the time and was devastated when she passed. A few years later I got a cat I could call my own, who is a little more aloof but just as lovey when he wants to be. We also have a mini chihuahua who recently has claimed me as his "hooman" and who I love to play and roughhouse with. I have also been gaining a lot of care experience with the TCHS, where I volunteer at most weekends, which has been teaching me a lot about different animal personalities and the best way to care for the animals present there. I am sitting because I truly love animals and prefer earning money for college and drum corps doing something I love. I work part time at an office job from 9-3:30 on Mon-Thurs, so those hours are set in stone. When I can, I volunteer at TCHS from 10-4 Fri-Sun, but I can certainly petsit during those times if need be. I can even petsit on weeknights and evenings after my office job. I will not accept pet dropoffs at my house since we have two other pets there already, and I'm certain that my family would not be pleased if I brought over another animal. I would do most of anything you would ask me to do to care for your pet. I'm not so experienced on giving medication, orally or intravenously, but I would be willing to learn to keep you worry-free. How I play and stimulate your pet depends largely on your pet's personality and preferences. My cat mainly loves to lay around and cuddle, but also loves to play fetch with yellow NERF dart balls! And the chihuahua loves to rough house play, so I constantly adapt to their wants and preferences. I have a more relaxed and chilled personality so if your pets don't like too much movement or rambunctiousness, then we'll get along together perfectly! I like to give cats and dogs a break from louder, more energetic folks and be a safe, calm haven for them.

“John is one of my good friends and absolutely fantastic with dogs! He is so good with his two dogs, and will be amazing working with any dog breed and size!!”

About: Since I was a child, I have always had animals in my home. As I got older, I began caring for friends and family's pets. When I was 16 years old, I began offering in home dog sitting services. Throughout my life I have worked for vet offices and boarding facilities. I started my own dog training company in 2017, Luna's Canine Academy. At my company I offer training and doggy daycare. I also offer boarding in my client's home, drop in visits for walks, feeding, medicine administration, and help with transporting your pets to and from services such as the vet or groomer. I am a full time animal caretaker and dog trainer so I am able to base my schedule around each individual dog. I offer boarding in my clients homes, training sessions, drop in visits (in your home), and dog walks. I have worked with dogs my entire life and am very knowledgeable in the care and safety of animals. I have many years of experience and wonderful referrals from past clients. Each dog is treated exactly how their owner would treat them. I am sure to be very thorough with my clients on what their daily routine is, what they are expecting, and what I will be providing. Safety is always my number one priority.

“Kelsey is very experienced and dedicated to animal care. She has made a career from training wild horses and absolutely has a gift for reading animal body language. Her dogs are so well behaved it's truly shocking. I trust kelsey 100% to care for any of my animals and you should too!”

About: I have fostered cats and dogs since 2016 and have always had dogs growing up. I am in training to become a licensed veterinary technician. I have worked in veterinary practices since 2018. I have a lot of experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, and farm animals. I am currently a full time student as well as working in a veterinary clinic. I have availability throughout most days as well as afternoons and weekends. My pets are my first priority in my own home and your pets will be my first priority in your home as well. As a veterinary professional, the safety of pets is very important to me.

“Deanna watched my dogs for a couple of days. She was the best dog sitter we've found and we totally recommend her to all of our family and friends!”

About: I been working in boarding for 2 years and currently working on being a dog groomer. I love playing with animals and was raised mainly around dogs. I love cats and took care of them in boarding and had my own pets. I work a full time Job as a Groomer Monday through Friday 10am-6pm. I am off Saturdays and Sundays. I can always try work around the schedule for the both of us. I don’t have a fence and won’t be able to have your pet at my house. But all I ask is to meet your pet first to see if they are okay with me around. I won’t be feel comfortable if the pet is aggressive or territorial. And if they take meds to let me know and show me what exact amount. I never done anything is needless so I would have to decline if they take that. And would like to know any allergies and if it’s okay if I bring treats for them.

“I was very skeptical to hire outside of family and friends but am so happy I found Shane! Shane scheduled a meet and greet with me at my home to become familiar with my cats and their needs. A week leading up to my trip, he confirmed we were still scheduled to need his assistance, and provided daily updates/pictures while we were away. I cannot recommend Shane enough and happy I've found a trusted pet sitter in my absence. Thank you, Shane!”

About: I grew up on a farm! Of course we had farm animals but we also had a cat, a dog ( a very energetic Golden Retriever) and hamsters as pets. I’m free Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. I could briefly help out on Saturday and Sundays after 5:30 pm. Tuesdays and Thursdays are unavailable due to school. I love interacting with pets and allowing them feel comfortable and cared for. Animals pick up on energy too! The right connections are meant to flow naturally!

“Lauren is always responsive and responsible when caring for our two cats over the past few years. She even goes above and beyond and gives them some enrichment to keep them entertained. She's fantastic and I can't recommend her enough!”
