Cat Sitting Niederwald

“She's the best! Always wonderful to my cats and very responsive.”

About: I’ve had animals my entire life and caring for pets is something I truly love. I have over 10 years of experience looking after dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I’ve dog-sat many times for friends and families, including caring for multiple pets in one home for weeks at a time (3 dogs and 4 cats). I’m comfortable managing feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, and keeping pets on their normal routines so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I also have experience with senior and special-needs pets. I once cared for an elderly German Shepherd whose back legs no longer worked. I helped with mobility, hygiene, feeding, and cleanup, and made sure she stayed comfortable and loved. This experience taught me patience, compassion, and how important gentle care is for older pets. I treat every pet like my own and always aim to give pet parents peace of mind through reliable, attentive care. I work part-time at a restaurant, so my schedule is very flexible. On days I am not working, I am available to stay with pets all day and provide overnight care. On the days that I do work, my shifts are typically about 5 hours long, which still allows me time to care for pets before and after work. If I am scheduled for a double shift, I have a 1-hour break in between, which I can use to check in on pets, walk them, and make sure they are comfortable and cared for. I always prioritize making sure pets are not left alone for long periods and maintain a consistent care routine. When caring for pets, my top priority is creating a safe, calm, and loving environment where they feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and house rules to ensure consistency for the pet. I always make sure doors and gates are secure, keep a close eye on pets during walks or playtime, and maintain a clean environment including food areas and litter boxes. I take time to build trust with each pet at their own pace, especially those who may be shy or anxious. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and provide dependable, attentive care so owners can feel completely at ease while they’re away.

“Alexis was amazing! She took such good care of my babies and gave wonderful check in’s. I would 100% recommend her especially if it’s your first time going away from your fur babies, pictures are sent with every check in. Before pet sitting she is very thorough in making sure she has all the information possible. Making me feel super safe in letting watch my kitties.”

About: As a proud dog and cat mom myself, I know firsthand that our pets aren't just animals, they're family! 🐾❤️ I have a sweet, energetic Border Collie/Mini Aussie named Nala and a lovable tabby cat named Maximus, so I'm very familiar with different personalities, energy levels, and the unique needs of both dogs and cats. I'm comfortable with energetic pups who need plenty of exercise, playtime, and mental stimulation, as well as pets who prefer a slower pace and extra cuddles. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, following feeding instructions, providing enrichment, and making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. I'm patient, attentive, dependable, and always happy to send pictures and updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away. Whether it's long walks, endless games of fetch, belly rubs, or simply keeping your furry friend company, I'll treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own! 💕 Pet care fits naturally into my everyday life! 🐾💕 As a proud dog and cat mom, my days already revolve around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, cuddles, and making sure my furry babies are happy and healthy! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I love staying active, getting outside, and spending time with animals, so incorporating walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting into my routine is something I genuinely enjoy! I'm happy to work around your pet's usual schedule to keep things as consistent and stress-free as possible. Whether your furry friend needs an early morning walk, midday potty break, evening companionship, or overnight care, I'll do my best to accommodate their needs. My goal is to make sure every pet feels loved, comfortable, and cared for while you're away! ❤️ Your pet's safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities! 🐾💕 Since I offer care in your home, I want your furry family members to feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible in the environment they already know and love! I understand how important routines are for pets, so I make sure to follow your instructions closely, whether that's feeding schedules, walks, medications (with clear instructions), playtime, or bedtime routines. I'm always mindful of keeping doors and gates secure, maintaining a clean and safe environment, and giving each pet the attention they deserve. As a dog and cat mom myself, I know how much trust it takes to welcome someone into your home and leave your babies in their care. I treat both your pets and your home with the utmost love, care, and respect! You can also expect plenty of adorable pictures, updates, and communication while you're away! My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your pets are safe, loved, and getting lots of attention! ❤️

About: From taking care of our family-friend's pets to helping with my best friend's cat, I have experience with all types of dogs, cats, and personalities! I am also comfortable with all-size pets. I'm currently in grad-school working part time. This means I have flexibility between class days and my part-time job. I am a hard worker that can juggle my responsibilities. Thanks, mom, for that! As a dog owner, I understand how important our pets are. I treat every pet how I would like my pet to be treated. This includes taking it easy and slow when meeting your pet for the first time, paying attention to surroundings (i.e., loud noises, other dogs around, no exposure to toxic foods, etc.), and paying attention to your pet's body language. As someone with a reactive dog, I understand that every dog's personality varies and requires different needs.

“Grace did a wonderful job with my fur baby boy! She is very trustworthy and dependable, I knew she would take great care of my cat. I will definitely rebook with her when I need a sitter in the future. Thank you so much, Grace!”

“Monica was fantastic! She provided excellent overnight house sitting and gave our Maine Coon cat, Puddy, the best care and attention. She was highly communicative and sent plenty of photos, which made us feel completely comfortable and reassured while we were away. I highly recommend Monica to any pet owner looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

About: I genuinely love animals and am happy to carr for yours like they are my own. Lots of love, snuggles and and playtime. I've had several senior pets and am confident in caring for them and have raised dogs from puppies and am comfortable caring for them as well. I work from home and can work from anywhere so pet sitting works well with my schedule. There are only a few days a week where I have meetings at a particular time, otherwise I can work around the pet needs. Lq I care for pets by creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment that keeps normal routines as consistent as possible. I follow each pets feeding, medication, exercise, and care instructions carefully and make sure doors, and gates are secure. Building trust is very important to me. I take time to get to know each pet's personality, respect their boundaries, and provide plenty of patience, , attention, and positive interaction. I also keep the home clean and tidy, properly clean up after pets, and watch for any changes in their behavior, appetite and overall well-being.

“Alyssa was communicative and took such good care of my cat while I was away. I was able to have peace of mind on my trip knowing my pet had company and was safe while I was gone. I would definitely work with Alyssa again!”

About: Been doing dog walking in DC for 3 years as well as house sitting. Currently, i work with my family at Kuri Pet Resort in San Marcos where I also take care of dogs and cats as well! People relied on me to walk, feed, and play with their fur babies. I enjoy walking the outdoors and spending every moment with the puppies as well as playing with the kitties! I am currently available part time but I’m willing to work on weekends, weekdays, and even holidays! I work during the day, afternoon, and even evenings! I have a fenced yard that is secured, I made sure that each dog is harnessed on and ready to go before each walk. At the end of the walk I made sure to give them plenty of water, food, and love before parting ways!

“I requested Katy’s services on short notice and couldn’t be happier. She asked all the right questions and was communicative and reassuring. My cats are a tad shy but she was able to coax them out of their shells for play time and pets. She was thorough and respectful and I will absolutely be booking with her in the future! Thanks, Katy!”

About: Whether it’s house sitting, walking, feeding, or plain socializing, I have experience doing it all. From the moment I was born to current day, I’ve always lived in a home with dogs, cats, or both. I have experience training breeds from German Shepherds to Jack Russels, so it’s safe to say I am comfortable handling any size dog. If you have cats, I can care for them, too! My care for animals stems from respect, love, and understanding. My schedule is super flexible! I currently work from home and choose my own schedule, but generally prefer early mornings or evening when it comes to walking. This is in consideration for dogs, as the pavement may burn their paws and they may overheat. Special instructions will always be followed to a T. When it comes to walking, dogs will always be leashed prior to exiting your home; heat indexes, feels like temps, and air quality will always be taken into account. I am familiar with the body language of dogs, so my safety, your pet’s safety, and stranger’s safety are guaranteed.

“Amber was recommended to us by friends and we are very glad for that! Amber was able to accommodate a last minute booking and took great care of our 3 cats. They seemed very relaxed when we returned. She even cleaned out the litter even though I had said she didn’t need to worry about it! It was a nice surprise. Thank you, Amber!”

About: I am a freshman at TXST and the hardest part about moving here was leaving my pets. I have 3 dogs back home: 2 goldens and a small mutt we got at the pound for my fifth birthday. I pet sit all the time when my parents & grandparents leave town. I’m currently balancing school and a part time job but my schedule stays exactly the same every week ( my job is only open very specific hours so i have the exact same shifts every week). This would be great if you plan to be a return customer because we could easily get a routine down. All of my pets have passed from old age so i think i’m doing a pretty good job keeping them alive! In all seriousness i will take care of your pets like they’re my own, i cry over animal shelter commercials.

“Corina did such a great job taking care of my kitty and home while I was away for a while. She sent photos daily and offered updates on things happening around my house too. She cleaned up her linens even though I’d told her not to worry about it, so that was unexpected and nice. A great caretaker for sure!”

“Stefanie was excellent looking after my cat. She’s a great communicator, sends photo updates, and is very attentive. I will certainly ask her to cat sit again. Highly recommended!!! Thanks Stefanie!”

About: I’ve been house sitting on and off for almost two years! I’ve grown up with pets my whole life (I’ve had dogs, cats, and even a lizard!) I absolutely love animals, and growing up I was taught that our pets were part of the family, and I live by that sentiment now as an adult. Currently, I am a full-time student and I also work a part-time job, which can make it hard to be available for extensive periods of time. However, I am extremely flexible in going back and forth from multiple responsibilities, and have no issue sitting overnight! I think as much as it is important to meet all of your pets basic needs, it is equally as important to make sure they get plenty of attention while their owners are away. In the past, I’ve spent any time I could playing with my pets and keeping them company as they await the return of their owners.
