Cat Sitting in Nortonville

“Savannah was absolutely fantastic! She was very cognizant of letting my kitten slowly get used to the other dog that she was sitting. She is very knowledgeable about animal care and made me feel at ease when bringing my kitten over. She is very accommodating with dates and time and I know she genuinely cares about all of the animals she cares for. Thank you so much Savannah, I will be using you again soon:)”

About: Howdy there & nice to meet you, I am a kindred soul who has experience working in doggy day cares/boarding camps as well as volunteering hours at various local animal shelters. I am an aspiring pet groomer and will be taking classes for that soon as well. I turned my passion to vibe with furry friends into paid play dates. I am a natural care giver and would love to meet your little (or big) one! I work a hybrid remote job so my schedule is super flexible. I have to already incorporate my schedule around my rightfully spoiled only child (Lincoln, my 8-year old Husky mix). I also combine pet care time with my self-care routine for exercise/physical activity. (Work smarter not harder). I have a fenced yard/porch, as well as a doggy door built into the door that leads to said yard/porch and security cameras that cover the yard so we can always see what's going on. As well as various toys, treats, and walking equipment always available to all our furry friends.

“Emily was phenomenal! Very sweet and loving, and was prompt with check-ins and overall communication. Very thankful I could enjoy my time away with no worries!”

“Tara was great! She completed all tasks very well. She left my house neat and clean w dishes done and garbage and recycling taken out. I’ve only used 3 other pet sitters and she was by far the best! We had a little difficulty communicating and operating around the bitter cold, snow and ice conditions, but she rallied. Tara is personable and conscientious - I would definitely book her again.”

About: Animals have always had an extremely special place in my heart. Ever since I was a kid I’ve helped care for my family’s own pets: feeding them, caring for their health, giving baths, taking them outside and on walks, and pretty much anything else having a pet entails. I also am in the process of beginning volunteering with the cats and dogs at Lawrence Humane Society! I am a full-time student, but I am available whenever I am not busy with classes. I also have a few volunteering shifts throughout each week that I need to work around, and a job (that I will be done with next month). I provide them with food and water, clean up their litter, play with them, take the dogs on walks, and show all the animals lots of love! I am also flexible and open to doing whatever I am able to.

About: I am a canine enrichment coordinator at a boarding facility and I teach basic and intermediate manners training classes. I have a degree in behavior science and I'm hoping to complete my KPA training certification in the near future. Ask about enrichment and basic training add-ons! I work as a full-time enrichment coordinator and dog trainer. As such, I have restricted availability. In general I am free Monday, Tuesday, and Friday evenings and all day on Saturdays. I am available for dog walking, check-in visits, and house sitting. I can also offer enrichment and basic training services as add-ons. Let's talk about some enrichment strategies to help your dog live a happy and full life!

About: I have an immense love for animals and treat my own as if they were my children, giving them endless care, respect, and affection. Their happiness and well-being are my top priorities, and I go above and beyond to ensure they feel safe, loved, and understood. This deep connection extends to every pet I care for, making me an exceptional pet sitter. I am patient, responsible, and attuned to each animal’s unique needs, whether it’s playtime, special diets, or just providing comfort. My dedication and genuine passion for animals make me someone pet owners can trust completely. I am always at home. I do work from home. But that is a few hours per day and my schedule can be adjusted to the needs of any animal. I have a lead setup but all dogs will be taken on multiple walks a day. During bed time they would be with me unless requested by owner to be crated.

About: I’ve been loving and taking care of animals all my life. I’ve loved them since I was a baby. I try to save every stray! I’m retired and looking for something to do that brings me joy and this is it. I’m available anytime during the day and the evening I will be caring for pets in other peoples homes but I have a fenced yard for my babies but monitor their time in the heat and cold.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was around 10 years old. My family, friends and neighbors have all asked me to dog sit before as well as just take their dogs on runs or walks. I’m currently working part time from 11AM-5PM. I will be able to check in on any pets I am taking care of throughout the morning and evening. My weekends are completely open for house sitting with your pet as well as being able to be with them all weekend. I have a house with a fenced yard, and a fury little dog to keep your pet company. My dog is super friendly and young, full of energy. In the past I’ve also been able to stay at clients houses with the pets and take them to daycares, give them medications, and be with them most of the day to day basis. My girlfriend also helps me out

Let me help walk and feed water and pet your loved one so you can get some stuff done. Thanks and I look forward to the jobs, as well as using the service so I can leave overnight and not feel so guilty about it. I’ll be glad to come by. Feed the fish walk the dog administer medication. Just ask I’m flexible. Burn out on my current career and taking some time off I have extra time and would love to bring some excitement and joy to a doggies day 😊 In our neighborhood, you'll discover a variety of dog parks, charming paths weaving through townhouses, sidewalks, and even serene creek areas. There's ample opportunity for your furry friends to enjoy walks, play fetch, and have leash-free exercise time to their heart's content!

About: I have loved animals since forever. I cannot recall a time in my adult life that I did not have a furry friend. I have a long history of animal rescue transportation and some fostering in-between transportation runs. I have been house sitting and dog watching for friends and family for several years and truly enjoy it! Unfortunately, I recently lost my sweet Lucy at the age of 14. (She is the first picture with her blue stuffie ☺️) She fought the good fight! However CHF, an enlarged heart and heavy seizure activity became too much for her aging body and the good lord came calling to help her cross on over the rainbow bridge where she can roam and run pain free again. So, I decided to offer my love of animals to others' companions instead of adopting again and went to work part time for the veterinarian that walked the walk with us. The love of an animal is unconditional and healing and within that, there is peace 💛 I currently work for a vet clinic and also as a massage therapist with full control of my schedule therefore have the ability to adjust my days as needed. I pride myself in working hard to keep your pets schedule as close to their normal routine as possible. I feel consistency is important for them when their humans are absent.

About: I'm not certified to train animals, but I'm happy to continue working on any training already in progress, and I'm able and capable to give meds as needed. I am done with school and I work part time so my schedule is flexible and allows me to take care of your animals when needed. I help give my own dog her required nightly meds. Previously, I've house sat with animals and let them out to go to the bathroom as needed and fed them as instructed.

About: I personally have had a lot of pets that have been properly loved and taken care of by me all of my life, this will be a great opportunity! I am a stay at home mom so this works perfectly to keep my busy! My little loves all kinds of animals! she will be a big help! I am very good when it comes to learning the animals language and will give and get what they need! I am very active when it comes to pets!

About: I have three large dogs who are often very hyper and sometimes are more stubborn than I would prefer. I'm used to taking care of them and have no problems going above and beyond to fulfill whatever needs your furry friend may have! My schedule allows me to take care of pets early in the morning before school, after school, and into the evenings. Additionally, I am available almost all day on the weekends, and I can also house-sit overnight on weekdays or weekends. When caring for pets in my home, I ensure they have a comfortable and safe environment. This includes providing appropriate food, fresh water, regular exercise, and plenty of attention and affection. I have a large, fenced-in yard and plenty of space inside of the house. If I'm caring for pets in their home, I'll make sure to follow the owner's instructions carefully, maintain their routine, and provide updates on their well-being. Each pet is unique, so I tailor my care to meet their specific needs and preferences.

About: "If you can look at a dog and not feel vicarious excitement and affection, you must be a cat." ~Terri Guillemets Love dogs (and animals in general, but dogs especially.) I have been around them my whole life and wouldn't want it any other way. I come from a large, mostly rural dwelling family, my grandma had 11 kids 2/3 of which have at least 1 or more dog(s) including my mom. I've always had my own and/or lived with roommates/friends/family, that have/had dog(s) in every house I've lived from day 1 to the present. Although I can't say I've taken care of every breed out there (doubt that many people can) I have definitely seen my fair share of mutts and purebreds alike; from Corgis to Chihuahuas, Danes to Dobermans, Lhasa Apsos to Shar Peis, and even a couple of wolves (3/4 mixes) as well as a few rodents, cats, reptiles, arachnid and birds. Big or small I love "em all, but if you forced me to pick a favorite I'd have to go with the affectionate yet intimidating Perro de Presa Canario. In short, if either by choice or necessity you find yourself in need of a caretaker for your 4-legged (or more) companion(s), know that I would be elated for the opportunity and you can be assured that their health and well-being will invariably be at the forefront of my mind in all that I do while they're in my care. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I look forward to hearing from you soon. "Lots of people talk to animals.... Not very many listen, though.... That's the problem." ~Benjamin Hoff, The Tao of Pooh
