Cat Sitting Newberrytown

“Stephanie is such an awesome pet sitter!! I’m very protective of my fur babies and wouldn’t let anyone else watch them! Stephanie goes above and beyond and I always feel good knowing she is watching my animals.”

About: Taking care of dogs and cats has been my specialty since I was a child! I have had 8 dogs of all kinds, as well as 10 cats, not including my grandmother’s. My family and neighbors would trust me to feed and water their pets while they were away. I am great at crating puppies and socializing feral/young kittens. It’s always a pleasure to brush or bathe pets depending on their size! I am working a part-time job at Petsmart so my day is already filled with furry faces! But I will still have plenty of days where I can come take care of your puppy or kitty! My schedules are usually two weeks out so I have plenty of notice of when I am free. Contact me of a day when you’d like me to care for your pet and I will let you know the earliest I am available that day! Unfortunately I am not in a position to invite pets into my home… I am figuring out my living situation and will update this section when I have a suitable place for pets to visit!

“Becky went above and beyond as always! She not only looked out for our cats, but also kept tabs on the house when we were out of the country. She is very communicative and gives excellent care. We’d definitely use Becky again for future drop-in visits!”

About: I’ve grown up around both dogs and cats, so caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away! As a graduate student, my schedule varies throughout the week, but I have the most flexibility during evenings and weekends. I enjoy fitting pet care into my routine and am happy to work with owners to make sure their pets get the care and attention they need! I care for each pet based on their normal routine and individual needs. In a client’s home, I’ll follow their instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and any other care they may need. My goal is to keep pets comfortable, happy, and safe while their owners are away!

About: Hi! I have 5 dogs and 4 parakeets myself, I love to craft or just binge watch movies. I’m currently in college, I’ve always loved animals and I lost my job in March, I’m just trying to find better things for myself. Reach out anytime ☺️ I have open availability so pretty much let me know what you’re looking for, if you want me to just stay at yours or even if you just want me to pop in and out from time to time! I have a fenced yard so I’m always watching my dogs, I sit outside with them and just watch them play. I also take them on walks when my parents are able to help since we have alot

“This was my first time since moving and having my cat alone so I was nervous to hire someone to check in on her. Tai was communicative, caring, friendly and sweet! She closely followed the instructions I left. I am so grateful for the last minute drop-in visit. I will definitely reach out again and would recommend her for anyone’s pet!”

About: I LOVE dogs and cats! Growing up, my family always had big dogs and fluffy cats around the house; so throughout my life I have gained experience caring for puppies and kittens all the way up to seniors. I adore dogs of all sizes, but big dogs will always have a special place in my heart. We owned a Rottie/Lab mix, a Great Dane, an English Mastiff, Boxer, and various Doodle breeds. We also had 3 Ragdoll cats. I currently have 3 Domestic Short and Long haired cats of my own with my fiancé and I love them dearly; but I really miss having a dog around the house. Helping people care for pets on here seemed like the perfect way to help me hang with pups! I frequently assist my friends and family with pet sitting, dog walking, and caring for their animals while they are away. Outside of animals, I work for The Department of State as a Legal Assistant and sit for 8 hours a day at a desk. Taking a dog on a nice walk or having a play session with pets sounds like a very pleasant way for me spend my time after sitting in an office all day. I also love to read, cook/bake, do yoga, play video games, and play softball on my women’s community team! I’m currently working a full time office job from 7:30am to 4:00pm, so I can be available on weekdays any time after 4:30pm or early in the morning . I can be available anytime on weekends with enough notice to plan. As much as I would love to help people board their pets, I can’t given the size of my apartment. My home is just for me and my cats :)

“Marlaina was terrific with our 2 cats. She is both professional and also caring with them while understanding their different personalities. She was very easy to communicate with and we could actually relax and not worry about them while we were on vacation. We would certainly love to have her cat sit for us again.”

“The boys were just perfect when I got home. Emina & Jackson even had to do a little clean up from an upset tummy. They did a great job.”

About: There has always been a pet in the home since childhood, I’ve watched and taken care of 5 personally owned dogs from puppyhood to adulthood! I have babysat my aunts cat Tammy for a few months now, and I have taken care of my own dog Maestro when my parents are on vacation, or need an extra pick-me-up.

I will be super respectful of your space and keep notes about certain things your animal needs, and provide spectacular feedback on how your animal is feeling, how the day went, overall what happened during my service! I am a wonderful listener and I learn extremely quickly.

About: I’ve loved dogs since I got my first dog at 3 and cared for her till she was 13 years old. I have taken care of all kinds of breeds from corgis to bernese mountain dogs. I am there to help walk bathe or spend time with your best friend when you are at work or away. I am home right now during the week and have been looking to fill my time and what better way then with your furry friends I am watchful if you have a fenced backyard I’d still spend time with you pet and play fetch or run with them to exercise them. While out walking just out of safety if I see another dog on or off leash or even a person I turn around or switch sides of the street. I always check about allergies or triggers for pets. Their safety and comfort are my main concern.

“Leslie was dependable and always kept in communication with me. We came home to happy, well cared for kitties. Thanks, Leslie!”

“We reached out to Kayla to watch our cat over the long holiday weekend with minimal notice and she was more than accommodating and made booking very easy! She is very easy to communicate with and responds quickly. She sent updates and photos every day, and Tut always looked happy and well cared for! Her family really welcomed him like one of their own. We will definitely use her again if the need arises!”
