Cat Sitting in New Plymouth

“Our cat was well and as happy as he gets when his people returned from being away. Jacob did seem to forget some of the details of our instructions, such as refilling the second upstairs water dish. Still, our cat did not go without any essentials, and Jacob's photo updates were reassuring. Thank you, Jacob!”

“Kayla has been truly awesome with watching my cats! She is diligent in sending daily Rover Cards with photos, and letting me know how things are going! I trust her completely with my pets!”

About: As an animal person since birth I work hard to understand the specific needs and wants of each animal family member. I have worked with a wide variety of animals my whole life, in vet clinics, animal rehabs, farms, and homes. I can provide walks, hikes, senior care, interactive play time, personal attention, socialization, and general bathing and maintenance. I am incredibly intuitive and patient and pride myself in providing unique adaptive care to each pet. No pet is too big or small; too young or old! I care for all species as well. (dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, etc.) All animals deserve love and care! My work schedule is currently very flexible so most days are available at any time. I make sure to keep my calendar up to date. The safety of your pet is number one. I am more then happy to put in time to build trust with your pet. I even have a very patient dog of my own who can provide a friend to your dog or cat and help with socializing young or nervous animals. I not only care for your pet but your home. Any mess made by me or your pet I make sure to clean!

“Made our kitty girls very happy over thanksgiving and gave them their own feast. Made me feel very comfortable seeing the state of their litter and food while I was away ❤️”

“Lena stayed at my house keeping my cats company for a week. She seemed to keep my cats very happy without me and left the house exactly how I left. Commutation was good and easy. I will hire again next time I need it.”

About: I helped train my mom’s 2 pit puppies and taught them tricks (shake, sit, etc.) I will love them like no other just like they’re my own! I am willing to spend majority of the week , every week, doing what I love most ! Whether that is having animal sleepovers , sightseeing , or just making sure they are fed and happy , I can always make time for you & your animals needs & wants . I have a kitten & a dog that just got out of their puppy stages ! I know what it’s like to have the mischievous zoomies ,the crazy jumping puppy kisses , and the leash pulling sniffers , but know how to handle it in a way that your animal will always be safe while with me .

About: Lifetime of experience, including dogs with behavioral challenges and special needs. I've volunteered at local shelters, and I've fostered rescue dogs in need. I have quite a bit of experience with dogs of every background! I am currently a college student and taking some time off of work to focus on my studies and would like to make some extra cash to help pay my loans/carry some weight at my family's house. My family has quite some land, and although not fenced, I am very active and always run with my own dog on a leash. I do 30 minutes to an hour walk twice a day. Potty breaks are very consistent.

“Great cooperation and communication, took very good care of my rabbit!”

About: I can walk your pet, bathe your pet if needed, and also pet sit if you want me to. Just ask me, the worst I can do is say no. I am available to do pet care whenever you need me to if I have some type of notice to do so. Thank you so much. I make sure that all my animals have what they need at all times, as well as my clients pets, if they need/want it they will have it.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a little kid and just love animals beyond belief, i was the neighborhood pet watchers when anyone would go out of town and took care of my own dogs as well as my grandparents 3 I work from 6:30-5:30 on the weekends but willing to work around a schedule if need be. I’m very flexible and willing to converse with anyone that needs help I will treat your home and pets with respect and care like they were my own. I have a genuine love for animals and will hopefully convey that when you trust me with your pet

“Emma provided fantastic care for my 2 cats! She was flexible, communication was great, and I loved all the pictures she sent me of my girls. I’ve already booked my next reservation with her! My girls are usually shy but it made me so happy and at ease that they were comfortable playing and exploring with Emma here.”

About: I have taken care of many different pets for as long as I can remember! My love for caring for animals started when I was 12 years old and taking care of my own five ferrets. It wasn't long after that when both of my parents had started bragging about my consistency and dedication when it came to taking care of pets to my family and their friends. From that point on I have gotten calls from my aunts, uncles, and family friends to care for their furry friends while away on vacations and business trips. This has made me confident enough to want to help other families take care of their animals when needed too! :) I currently go to college at Ohio University and would only be available to work on my school breaks starting every August-May. However, my schedule over the summer is pretty open and I would love to spend as much time needed with your fur babies! With any instructions given I am sure to not skip one step! I will give your pet all the attention and cuddles necessary. Due to me having a dog who doesn't get along with new dogs, I would care for your pet(s) in the comfort of their own home. I am also willing to stay overnight if needed when I am available to do so.

About: Student Affairs professional for OHIO and love all furry animals. I had an amazing Norwegian Elkhound Mix and 2 cats. Now I have 9 month lab mix and 1 cat. Both very friendly and good with everyone. I'm very patient, optimistic, and kind. I have experience with pups & senior dogs. I'm comfortable administering medication, including injections and promise to love your pet unconditionally while they are in my care. Depending on the needs of your pets they'll enjoy at least one walk a day, potentially a hike, and get plenty of attention throughout their stay with me. Before rescuing my current dog, I trained two Great Pyrenees from 6 months to 3 years for a friend. I'm comfortable with all dogs and cats and hope I can help provide care for you soon! During the school year I work from home 2 days a weeks and in the summer 3 days! This gives me plenty of flexibility to check on your pets as needed. Additionally, I have the flexibility to check during my lunch break if needed when I'm in the office. I have a fenced in backyard and will gate off sections of our home until we know the dog is comfortable in our home and with our dog & cat. We block off the stairs to keep them on the ground floor with us.

“Arlo got along great with Padmé and sent pictures and small notes daily. At the end of her 4 day stay with Arlo, I picked up Padmé and all of her stuff and then I found a card with a sweet message about their time together, as well as a photo of Padmé she had taken! I highly recommend Arlo and will likely use her again to watch my cat.”

About: Hi, I'm Annie. I am an experienced pet-sitter that easily connects and understands your pets. I bring a calm, patient, and empathetic approach when meeting a new animal. I understand how nerve-wracking it can be for animals to not only be missing their people, but interacting with a new person as well. As the go-to pet-sitter among friends and family, I have cared for around 20 dogs of all sizes, personalities, and ages. Starting in 2022, I volunteered as a dog-sitter and service-dog handler with 4PAWS for Ability. At 4PAWS, I gained 2 years of experience sticking to strict routines, following instructions carefully, and learning how to read dog body language. Additionally, I volunteer at animal shelters and have interned at the Columbus Zoo as an enrichment intern, so I understand the importance of enrichment and entertainment for animals. I stay calm, move at your pet's pace, and take my time when earning their trust. I'd love to meet your pet and provide the kind of care that they need to feel safe and loved. I can provide care, companionship, exercise, play-time, etc. for your pet during any time of the day! I am a self-employed graphic designer with a flexible schedule. I work 15 hours part-time for Lakeshore Learning Center as well. The hours I work are very flexible. I also work digitally so, as well as caring for high-energy pups, I am able to provide companionship to lower energy or older pups company while I work remotely. When watching your pet in your home, you can trust me to respect and care for your pet with in your space responsibly. I have been trusted to house-sit for friends and family for 8 years (>35 times). I truly respect the safety and care your home, belongings, and pet. I am excellent at following directions, communicating clearly, being punctual, and making sure that your pets come first while you are away. I treat every animal and home with the same respect, care, and attention that I would want for my own pets.

About: I've trained my own dog a couple tricks. I've taken all the dogs in My life on walks as well as helped feed and clean up after my dogs. I do work full time in the morning but I will walk the pets and feed them before I leave and will walk and refill bowls when I get back. I will do anything needed to make sure your pet feels safe with me and can crate when I am at work if I am needed on weekdays.

“Lillian is super friendly and kind, and Stuart loves her which is so important! She's definitely a great animal person and it's such a huge relief to have somebody so nice to check in on the little guy while we're out of town. I'm sure he appreciated her visit as much as we did! She's very communicative and sent us a bunch of pictures as well. Will definitely be hiring her again in the future!”

“Ness is a great drop-in cat care person! One of my cats adored her—she was his food source after all! The other cat, who is quite neurotic and hides when anyone comes in the house, usually goes on an hunger strike when I’m gone but actually ate his food and even meowed for her one time. Ness’ quiet energy made everyone happy.”

About: I’ve had many experiences pet sitting. I’ve watched anything from cats and dogs to farm animals! I often pet sit for my family members and neighbors. I have no problem cleaning up litter boxes, brushing, and even giving medications if needed! I’m currently in college and working part time. Right now i’m mostly available Tuesdays and Thursdays after 4. Summer is coming up so my availability will open up! I have no issue cleaning up after the pet and cleaning litter boxes. I can also ensure they have fresh water and if needed food at my visits.
