Cat Sitting Norco

About: I’ve spent most of my life caring for animals and have over 10 years of hands-on experience working with dogs, including training and behavior. My experience extends beyond dogs as well—I’ve cared for horses, cats, birds, fish, goats, reptiles, rodents, and a variety of other animals. Dog training and behavior are a particular passion of mine, and I’m currently furthering my education in Animal Health and Behavioral Sciences with a focus on professional dog training. Over the years, I’ve worked with dogs of many different breeds, sizes, temperaments, and personalities, including large, high-energy, strong-willed, and more challenging dogs. I understand that every dog is an individual, and I take the time to learn their routine, personality, boundaries, and needs. My goal is not only to provide dependable care, but also to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and understood while they’re with me. I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes, and I’m comfortable maintaining training, structure, and routines that owners already have in place. I genuinely love seeing dogs thrive and seeing owners happy and confident in the care their pets receive. Whether your dog is an easygoing couch potato or has a little more personality to manage, I’ll treat them with patience, respect, and the same level of care I’d want for my own animals. I currently have a full time job, however, we do have long weeks and short weeks as well as working nights and days. I typically watch over friends and family’s pets on my short weeks but I can also be flexible on my long weeks as I live 5 minutes from my job. On the nights that I work, my husband will be home to aid in any extra care your pets may need. I have a fenced in yard, a little on the smaller side but I also offer to take dogs on walks and can bring them to the dog park as my 3 dogs love going there! My fur babies are super sweet and playful. If your pet needs crate training or potty training, I’m an expert as I’ve raised several puppies throughout my life. I also don’t mind giving your pet medication and/or supplements as my dogs get special food and supplements everyday! They are up to date on vaccines and flea, tick, dewormer is administered every month! While my house isn’t the biggest, I always make sure to make other pets feel at home and safe while they’re here.

“Kaleigh was so nice and did a great job taking care of my animals. She made sure we were informed and communicated well. Highly recommended!”

“Adia was great with our two (2) fur boys. She’s very professional and communicated with us and sent pics with each visit, while we were out/town. Adia came once a day for 12 days and spent time with them, doing what they like doing, especially hanging on the front porch. She cleaned up the mess that they made from time-2-time and even did her best at wiping up our lil boy dog’s mark with urine (uhg🙄), when he did it! He knows better!! 🤦‍♀️ I would hire Adia again if I ever need another dog sitter in the future. Thank you . 🥰”

“This is the 3rd time we have used Claire and we would continuously use her if it weren’t for us moving. She sends pictures every single day. Our cats are terrified of strangers but they’ve grown to love her which has surprised us COMPLETELY. Not because of the person she is but because that’s how scared our cats are of strangers. She takes amazing care of them and nothing less. My cats are always so, so happy when we come home (because they get to see us but more because they got to have a friend to hang out with for a few days to get away from their parents) and they’re well fed. She takes the time to play with them and make sure they’re active. She is always asking questions if things she can do for them to make them happier, or maybe ask about other toys we have to stimulate them. She’s a pet lover and it shows. She’s the only one I trust to pet sit my cats and the only person I trust to leave alone in my home. Sayings she’s amazing is an understatement. You HAVE to hire her for your babies.”

“Thank you for taking care of my boys while I was out of town! I much appreciated the updates on their eating behavior as I know they can be picky at times!”

They have a way of healing us. Letting me watching your fur baby is a great choice. We can go swimming, go on long fun runs, go tobthe park, play fetch, relax and watch a movie, maybe even get a bath if need be. Im also open to any suggestions or expectations you have of me with your animal. I understand the importance of keeping an animal stress free and comfortable. I cant wait to meet you and your critter!! Let s set up a meet up! Message me today! I’m available on evenings and early mornings. I do work full time but I’m open to requests!! My schedule is usually open. Let me walk or feed your baby :) Safely and cautiously. Especially if it’s a first time meet. Make sure your dog is leashes and secured before going out. The goal is to have fun!

“This was my first time using rover and Mimi made things so easy for us to enjoy our night away. She was very communicative and friendly with our cat. We will definitely be contacting her for future pet sitting needs!”

About: I have had pets all my life, and still do. I also worked at 2 dog day cares and boarding facilities. I worked the front desk at a vet's office for 2 years. And I did animal rescue for a number of years. I have been working with animals for over 15 years all together. In that time I have had to work with a wide variety of pet personalities. I have sat for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, cats, and the occasional bird, pig, or reptile. I enjoy giving families the peace of mind that their furry family members are in good hands and getting the love and care they are used to while they are away. Please let me know if you have any questions for me. I look forward to hopefully working with you and your family. Working from home allows me to have a flexible schedule to take care of your pets needs when they need me. I am typically available to work around thier schedule. Taking care of your pets involves keeping to thier routine and making them feel like nothing has changed. Although I may spoil them a bit more than they are used to. But they deserve the extra love while their family is away.

“I felt so much better knowing that Emily was taking care of my kitty. She is super thorough and I will absolutely be rebooking. I 100% recommend!”

Jennifer L.

“Took such good care of crew. Excellent communications. If any issues arose, it was handled professionally and with care. The updates and pictures were wonderful, taking all the stress and worries away. She interacted with them every visit and they were very responsive towards her. Well use and highly recommend.”

Dawnna R.

“Needed someone for drop ins last minute and so thankful to have found Garrett!! Garrett was punctual, communication was consistent & thorough. He asked questions in order to get to know us and was enthusiastic about his time with Amber. They immediately got along and had a great visit each day. Thanks so much Garrett, we will definitely book with you again 😊”

I love all animals and hope I can take care of them while you are away! I am currently in graduate school to be a speech pathologist and am looking for a part time job pet sitting!

I live with my parents and our family dog and my cat! We have plenty of toys that we play with them with, I just bought my cat a new stainless steel water bowl bc I found that it’s better for their skin health, treats of course!, and a fenced back yard with plenty of space for our pitbull to get her zoomies out!

About: I've been caring for dogs and cats for over 11 years and genuinely love spending time with animals of all ages and personalities. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or prefers a quiet routine, I take the time to understand their individual needs and make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, administering oral medications, following special feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and providing lots of affection and attention. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, so I always treat every pet as if they were my own while keeping owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care, whether that's daily visits, walks, overnight stays, or weekend care. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I do my best to keep them on their normal routine and make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and routines to help pets feel secure while you're away. I pay close attention during walks, keep pets away from unsafe situations, and make sure they always have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of affection. I believe in clear communication and will send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring and trustworthy hands.

About: Ive pet sit since I was 14, both paid and unpaid, and I love it! I have experience with difficult dogs/cats (multiple high energy pups in one home) and a moody pet does not scare me off. Currently, 30 hours, of my week (~5hrs a day) is spent at my job at a cafe. Outside of that I can fit your fur baby into my schedule before or after work or on my off days! I never work late and my schedule is very flexible Being able to read the body language of your pup/kitty is a crucial skill that I have a lot of experience in. Being in your home, I know Im in their space

About: I’ve been taking care of my animals and others’ animals from a young age. I have a range of experience- with puppies and kittens, administering medication, unique personalities, special needs, and more. Whether its a high energy dog or a nervous and shy cat or anything in between, I have seen it all! I am flexible and willing to help in any way I can! Currently not boarding at the moment since I am moving into a new space soon. I can go home for lunch during the week and am free all evenings and weekends. Since I am in the process of moving to a new space, I am not boarding at the moment. I am usually available for boarding on weeknights after 4p and full days on the weekends. Your pet is my priority whether I am at your place or mine. When staying at your place, I will always try to leave it neater than when I came across it. Whether its replacing batteries in your ring camera or letting the service man come in, I am available to help you in anyway you need when something unexpected occurs while you're out. Any animals staying at my home are made to feel comfortable and safe; my home becomes their home!

About: ---> Sorry, I do NOT accept most spunky, young dogs Over 30 pounds. Most of the small pets I care for cannot physically handle playing with most dogs over 30 pounds. There's no setting for that weight on Rover. (Unless your pet is an elder and/or they're very mellow) <--- My name is Melissa (aka. "Missy"). I'd like to care for your precious pet the next time you need some help. Do you have somewhere to go, or something to do? Let me help you, at your place or mine!?! You can book your pet for a caring, one hour, drop-in visit to your home, a few overnight visits, or an extended stay at my house. Do you need help at the last minute ... ? No problem. I'm happy to provide pet transportation, if needed. I can also help you fulfill the rules & requirements at a "Pet-Friendly" NOLa hotel, when the rules say, “you cannot leave your pet in the hotel room alone”. I work from home as a bookkeeper & tax consultant - This means your precious pet will NEVER be left alone for long hours, whenever they're in my care. I will be at your pet's side, while you take care of business or if you have a fun get-away planned. I’m very comfortable with many different animals & dog breeds, including elderly dogs that need a mellow, safe space with calm, gentle care. I pay close attention to what your dog likes & dis-likes, along with their personality quirks & individual needs. I enjoy caring for all animals, both young & old. I do not accept more than 2-3 dogs at a time. ((I USUALLY only schedule ONE family's pet(s) at the same time, especially if there’s a new dog client)). I always put in a great deal of consideration, before scheduling more than one family's pet at the same time. My home is very spacious, clean, well-organized & safe. I have a large, gated/enclosed & secure, backyard. The dogs that stay with me are ALWAYS supervised. My eyes will be on your pet constantly, while we play at your home or mine, both inside & outside. Allow me to love & care for your precious pet, while you take care of you. Let's discuss your needs. I do offer one free meet & greet. Other than dogs, I also have experience caring for: Cats, Birds, Bunnies, Turtles, Lizards, Snakes, Hamsters, Fish, Frogs, Chickens & Plants. Most of my pet guests are small, therefore any extra frisky, playful pet, over 30 pounds may cause physical harm, even if they are just playing. I'd rather not take that chance. I work from home as a bookkeeper & tax consultant. I’m rarely away from the house for more than 2-3 hours. I will always keep my eyes on your pet, even when the pet is roaming around the backyard. My backyard has a 9 ft. high, wooden fence. I also have a double gated entry, front-yard patio. I can also provide crates if needed. My 20 pound dog is 8yrs. old and he is very mellow & well behaved. He always welcomes another dog friend, anytime. We have a trusted routine for introducing new pet guests.

“William is amazing. Helped us out with a last minute pinch. Super sweet. Highly recommend !!”

Barbara O.

“MarkQueeta was amazing! She was super prepared (even to help me unload and bring my kitty supplies in for boarding) and has plenty of experience with cats, which made me feel super comfortable leaving my kitty with her. She was very kind and even offered to let my cat stay an extra day for free when I had last-minute changes in my plans and had to figure new plans out! I would definitely bring my kitty back again in the future!”
