Cat Sitting New Territory

About: My entire life, my home has been described as the neighborhood’s “local zoo.” From livestock to pocket pets, I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals over the years. I’ve volunteered working hands-on with animals at the zoo, and currently care for two dogs, one cat, some small animals, and fish I’ve been pet sitting for over five years and have experience with many dog breeds, ages, and personalities. I focus on building trust, supporting positive behavior, and helping animals feel safe and comfortable in my care. I believe pets deserve to enjoy being animals—without unnecessary stress—while still feeling understood and respected by the humans around them. I’m currently a full time commuting student. My school hours will begin at 8am and end at 4:30pm most days. I will be available to feed and walk your pet before and after these timings. Weekends I am free with notice. Pets are allowed supervised free roam of my home. During the day, they will likely be confined to one room or a crate if needed while I’m at school. Pets will have unlimited access to water, other dogs to interact with, plenty of toys, etc.

“Erin was wonderful! She was very open and communicative coming up to the visit, taking the time to ask thoughtful questions and asking additional details about Howard. She arrived on time, provided thorough check-ins on the app, and sent me pictures as well letting me know he was happy and healthy.”

“Great experience with Sabrina! She sent pictures of my cat daily, made sure she got plenty of love and attention (and her medicine!) while we were away for the holidays. I’ll be booking again in the future ?”

About: I’ve had the joy of having pets all my life. I’ve always had a passion for saving animals who were displaced or hurt. I currently have a cat and a dog who I adopted as rescued animals when they were young. I have experience with all sizes and ages of animals. I have lots of energy and enjoy walking dogs, taking them to dog parks, and giving them all my attention. The love I have received from animals makes my heart soar and feel it’s a gift that I’ve been entrusted with receiving. I’d appreciate the opportunity to be in your dogs life as their caregiver when you are unable to be there. I’m currently working part-time with a flexible schedule so I have plenty of availability to take care of your furry family member(s). I’m available usually any day of the week for drop-ins and walks. I walk my dog every day in my neighborhood plus we have a backyard where we go to play to get some energy out. I have many toys and treats for both my animals to keep them stimulated. We like fetch - both the dog and the cat enjoy playing. My cat will catch toys in the air and bring them to me! He loves attention and playtime. I make sure there is always food and water available and treats when they do something great, or cute ;) While taking of your pet, we could do any of that but I do like to let the dog choose how much energy they can give me so I don’t over due it. I’ll need your guidance on what your dog likes best and how I can give them the best care to meet their needs.

“Nelson is amazing!!! He goes above and beyond!”

“Kaitlyn did a very good job with my dogs. She arrived on time and showed a lot of attention to BoJo who is an attention hog. She was also able to handle Mable who is very energetic with ease. I highly recommend Kailyn to take very good care of your pets and will be using her again in the future.”

“Jillian was great. She did a drop in for our 4 babies. She was prompt, friendly, played with them and even took some amazing pictures in the process.”

“Jennifer was absolutely amazing. She lifted the anxiety of leaving my cat home alone while on our trip. Her attentive care, knowledge and experience with a variety of pets, and love for animals translated into the best sitter. I feel very lucky to find someone I can trust— highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets of all kinds since I was a teenager. Dogs, cats, rodents, reptiles. I’ve worked in veterinary clinics, so I know how to care for seniors as well as special needs pets. I can also administer medications as needed. I work early mornings until 3pm, so I am available late afternoon and all evening to care for your babies. I’m available all day Friday and Saturday. I would prefer to care for your pet at your home. But I’m willing to make exceptions for small dogs to have them stay in my home. They would be crated while I am away.

“Jessica followed all of our instructions and had a great first drop in visit with our two dogs. We will definitely be using Jessica in the future!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and other pets for over 25 years and especially love caring for senior dogs who need extra patience, comfort, and attention. I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, fish, tortoises, guinea pigs, and other small pets, and I treat every animal with dependable, loving care while you’re away. Pet care is a way of life for my family. As a stay-at-home mom with five kids in school during the day, I have the time and flexibility to give your pets plenty of loving, attentive care. I provide dependable in-home pet care including drop-in visits, dog walks, feeding and food preparation, medication administration, playtime, companionship, and lots of loving attention to keep your pets comfortable in their own home.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly love spending time with them! As the proud owner of two cats and a Husky, I know that every pet has their own unique personality and deserves lots of love, patience, and attention. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or sticking to their daily routine, I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and my goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your pets and give them the care they deserve! I have a flexible schedule and love making time for pets! Whether your furry friend needs a walk, a drop-in visit, playtime, or lots of attention while you’re away, I’ll be there to provide reliable, loving care. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine so they stay comfortable, happy, and stress-free. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how they’re doing. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they receive the care they’re used to. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, medication (if needed and instructed), or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I give my own. You can count on regular updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away.

“Nicole was easy to communicate with and took good care of my cats. Would definitely recommend and use again. :)”

About: Hi! I’m a professional dog trainer with 6 years of hands-on animal experience. I’ve worked with dogs of different breeds, ages, and personalities, and I always focus on making each pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Animals have always been my passion, and I treat every pet like part of my own family. Whether I’m walking, training, or spending time with your dog, I bring patience, responsibility, and lots of love to every visit. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I structure my work schedule around my Rover bookings so I have dedicated time for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I always make sure pets are let out, walked, and fed on a consistent schedule, and I don’t accept more bookings than I can safely handle. When I’m at work or school, I plan check‑ins before and after, and I’m available early mornings, evenings, and weekends to give your pet plenty of attention. Your pet’s needs come first, and I build my day around keeping them happy, safe, and comfortable. I have a fenced yard and your pet’s safety is my top priority. As a dog trainer with 6 years of animal experience, I’m confident handling different breeds, energy levels, and behaviors, and I always use secure leashes, harnesses, and crates when needed. In my home, your dog will be in a clean, pet‑friendly environment with plenty of space to relax and play. I also have a very friendly golden retriever who loves company and can be a great, gentle playmate for social dogs. I supervise pets at all times, introduce them slowly, and never put them in situations that feel unsafe or overwhelming. I’m reliable, communicative, and respectful of your pet’s routine, and I’ll send updates and photos so you always know how your dog or cat is doing.

“Jenna is great! She cares about your animals and will follow any instructions you leave and is sure to check in with you. Also she takes great pictures of your pet for you. Will be rebooking!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I provided dedicated senior care for my chocolate Labrador, Copper, who lived to the incredible age of 18. Today, I have two pit bull mixes that join me on hiking adventures throughout the year, and I even harness-trained my kitten for outdoor adventures. I treat every pet like family and understand that each has their own unique personality, needs, and routine. Whether they're energetic or need a little extra care, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I am currently a wedding photographer in off season and have pretty good availability during the week for pet sitting. I typically work weekends but with enough notice and special occasions I'm flexible. I have one high energy dog and one older dog. So daily walks are a must. Sometimes separate and sometimes together. Our walks are typically 1 to 2 miles. I have two friendly dogs at home but I do have smaller home and a husband with allergies. So in my own home would probably be a case by case basis. As for other people's home's I'm flexible and respectful of house rules.

“Katie and Robert did an amazing job with our babies. Made sure to check in every day and provided us updates. They were patient with Charlie as he is a shy dog. I know Charlie and the kitties would be happy to see them again for a future sittings.”
