Cat Sitting in Olema

About: Hello, I have experience house sitting, pet sitting, walking, and all kinds of care for animals. I can distribute medication if needed. I’m here to help you feel at peace while you are away from your fur babies, so really whatever that looks like for you. I have a senior dog and rabbit of my own. I have had cats in the past as well.

About: I adore all animals and have had pets my entire life I currently own two cats and two small dogs. But I have own/cared for larger breeds as well! I have a very chill laid back personality. You pet will get lots of attention and exercise with me. Keeping the animals safe, comfortable, happy and healthy this my top priority. My schedule is currently fairly flexible. I prefer, mornings and mid day. However depending on schedule I can do overnight/evening care as well. West marin highly definitely preferred. If you have specific instructions for me to follow such as food preparation or special diets for your pet. Or if they have a preferred activity that they enjoy, just let me know.

About: I wanted to be a vet... I had many dogs and cats over the years, in different countries - I love animals, their unconditional love and communicative silence (or not, right Warren!) I very much would like a pet again but where I live pets are not allowed, so I get my treat by enjoying your pet! I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible. I like taking a walk in the morning after feeding, usually a longer adventure of 1-2 hrs, maybe to the beach! Then another, shorter walk in the late afternoon before feeding, if there is a 2nd meal. And of course going for a quick round before bed. I'm always attentive to the body-language/need of an indoor pet, watching the signs they may want to go out. I request vet and safety information from the owner, including dietary restrictions, and will stick to the animal's routine of feed time and walk. Less stress is better!

“Last time we went away, we used a non-professional catsitter who , due to a family emergency, was only able to visit once in 4 days. This time, we loved getting photos of our cat weaving her way between Em's legs, nuzzling her face, etc. during twice-a-day visits. We were so glad to know that our kitty was fed and watered and that she had used her litterbox and it was not filthy (the rest of the house was quite dirty and messy, and we are very sorry about that and grateful that our catsitter fulfilled her obligation despite that). Thank you so much, Emily!”

“Kat was everything you would want in a petsitter. She was responsible, communicative, capable, loved my elderly cat, and took great care of her. Mamacat was very content and peaceful when I arrived home, and the house was clean and well taken care of. Kat was used to giving oral medications, but had never done insulin injections before. She was happy to learn how, came ahead of time to be trained, and then performed Mamacat's whole daily routine smoothly without problems. She reached out when she had questions, sent updates, and overall was very responsive to my lengthy instructions. I felt Mamacat was in very capable and responsible hands, and I look forward to having Kat sit for my precious kitty again anytime. I highly recommend her!”

“Sharon is great with our corgi, Wilson. She asks thoughtful questions and clearly cares about being prepared. She sends regular updates, which gives us peace of mind. It’s obvious she really loves the dogs she cares for, and it makes leaving Wilson much easier. She also is great at communication and is responsive to messages. We highly recommend her!”

About: To ensure your pet receives individualized attention, we host only one dog at a time. We’re a good fit for dogs who are over 1 year old, 15 lbs or more, spayed/neutered, fully potty trained, and happy sleeping solo (no human beds or bedrooms). These basics help keep the vacation smooth for everyone. Pick up/drop off: 6:00am - 7:00pm. We live with a wonderful Lab named Lincoln (no current job). We are able to do walks (and runs!) through the Watershed, Deer Park, Headlands and love to take photos. For longer stays, we do field trips (including a secret dog pool in Petaluma 🤫). We try to switch each day up to provide variety. Backyard with plenty of room and recently installed dog run. Fenced from road. Also a hammock should our guest prefer a more leisurely day. ;)

“Melina was great! Very flexible with my last minute drop in request. My dogs loved her and she took great care of them. Went above and beyond in a rain storm to make sure their paws were dry and the floors were not muddy. Checked in regularly and made me feel at ease knowing my dogs were taken care of.”

About: I understand what it’s like to leave your pet alone with a stranger and I will make sure it is as if you never left! I have owned many different types of pets myself including dogs, cats, rabbits, and Guinea pigs. Animals seem to naturally gravitate towards me and I genuinely enjoy spending my time with animals. I am experienced with puppies as well as elderly dogs. I love showing families pics and videos of their pets while they’re gone to keep them updated! I am available weekday afternoons and some weekends. Monday, Wed, Friday after 3pm and T Th at 5pm. On weekends, I just need a 3 day heads up! I like to make sure the pet feels loved and safe first and foremost and I make sure to keep great communication with the client! I am very adamant on making sure all the necessary tasks are completed as well.

“I couldn’t be happier with the care our two cats received! From the very first visit, it was clear that Abby has a genuine love for animals. Abby kept us updated with photos and notes, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We highly recommend Abby to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and professional pet sitting. We have worked with Abby a few times this year and will absolutely be booking again! 🐾💛”

“This is the second time we had Noelle check in on our little guy and she was great! We would absolutely have her sit again.”

“I recently had Madison house sit and pet sit for nearly two weeks, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She took wonderful care of my cat, playing with him multiple times a day and regularly sending pictures so I always knew how he was doing. It's clear she genuinely loves animals. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat, just as I had left him. Madison was also incredibly responsive throughout the stay. Any time I had a question, she replied quickly and put my mind at ease. She also left the house in great shape, which I really appreciated. Leaving your pet with someone new can be a worrisome experience, but I never felt anxious once with Madison. I was completely at ease knowing my cat and home were in such capable, caring hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive pet sitter, and I will absolutely be hiring her again without hesitation.”

About: Hello, I’m currently studying to become a veterinarian. Since I was a kid, I’ve always been surrounded by cats, dogs, and even birds. I do not shy away from any animal and feel a connection between them and nature. I understand the patience, time, and love a pet requires. I treat all pets with the same care and love as my own. I love going on walks, especially in a forested area. I love going on hikes, I believe reconnecting with nature is important for not only myself, but pets as well. I’ve always cared for animals, as of now I have pet birds. Basically my entire life I’ve cared for animals. Once I started to care for them professionally, my world opened up to so many new learning possibilities. Working with elderly pets and puppies, mature pets… it’s just such a learning process and it’s beautiful to be able to connect to them in such a meaningful way. I have worked in a pet resort, and as a beekeeper. This has solidified my confidence and trust within myself to care for your pet personally. I deal with hundreds of dogs, cats, and clients everyday working at the pet resort. I’m working part-time at the moment, I do have a flexible schedule. The only days where I am definitely not available are on Tuesdays and Thursdays. As always, I will be open to flexibility when available. I care for all pets with care and love. I understand no pet is equal, they all have their own personalities which means you need to find what works for each. This takes patience, but it is completely worth it. I make sure your pets are safe in their surrounding. This means against dangerous items they may be tempted to go near, etc. Your pets’ safety is my priority.

About: I have volunteered at Humane Societies with all kinds of pets because animals are my passion, and have had pets for almost 30 years. I currently have had a wonderful cat named Latte for 6 years and I couldn't live without her. I am available during the day to walk your dog or take it to play at a dog park, or check in on your cat and give it plenty of love, food, and attention. I make sure the pets I look after are cared for like my own, and their safety, comfort, and security are a top concern of mine.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and truly can’t imagine a home without them. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, birds, fish (both saltwater and freshwater), and small mammals as I’ve had all of them as pets or taken care of my friend's. As a teenager, I worked at a local kennel, gaining valuable experience with feeding routines, cleaning, and handling animals of all temperaments. I’ve also trained my own dogs, earning several first-place ribbons in competitions. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely passionate about animal care—whether it’s a walk around the block or providing loving companionship while you’re away! I am also experienced in giving subcutaneous fluids and administering all kinds of medications from shots to pills I currently work weekdays from 2-8:30pm along with some weekends, but weekends I am off by 3pm. I also have periods of time where I don’t work for a couple of weeks here and there. I can come morning, afternoon, and night any day I am willing to bring a small animal into my home as long as they are ok with another large dog and small cat who are very friendly. I do not have a yard, but walks are given multiple times a day and I have a decent sized 2 story townhome with dog parks and turn outs close by. If I am to go to your home, I can do anything and everything. I have experience with giving fluids to cats and dogs for health issues and administering all kinds of medication

About: I’ve always had a really special place in my heart for animals and feel naturally comfortable around them. My family has dogs that I help care for, and I’ve also spent a lot of time looking after dogs for friends, family, and neighbors. I also have two cats that I love dearly, so I’m very comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal’s personality, whether they’re playful, shy, energetic, or just want a calm companion. I’m patient and attentive and treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time throughout the day to dedicate to the pets I’m caring for. I’m able to plan my days around walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and check-ins so each pet gets the attention they deserve. I also enjoy being outdoors and going for walks, so spending that time with dogs feels like a really natural and enjoyable part of my day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow any instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and plenty of playtime and attention. I also make sure pets feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away by giving them companionship and keeping their environment clean and calm. If I’m caring for a pet in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable space, regular walks, and lots of love and supervision so they feel right at home. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so owners can feel at ease knowing their pet is well cared for.

“We really appreciate Elena watching our cat for us while we were camping. We felt completely at ease knowing she was there. She was quick to update us when she got there and how it went when we returned. Have already rebooked her for next month!”

“Tracy was incredible!! Our cat loved her and seemed much calmer than usual when we returned. She was responsive, extremely clean and sent cute updates. In addition to being a responsible pet sitter, she really seemed to bond with our cat. 15/10 recommended”

Mariam A.

“We are absolutely thrilled with the care Ariana provided for our 17-year-old cat, Matteucci, over the two weeks we were away. Ariana was fantastic, demonstrating true reliability by meticulously following every one of our senior cat protocols and medical instructions. The most amazing thing, however, was her patience and gentle approach in getting our notoriously unsociable girl to come out of her shell and actually socialize! This is a massive step for our cat, and it speaks volumes about the wonderful environment she created. We returned to a happy, healthy, and relaxed feline. We wholeheartedly recommend her for her exceptional skill, especially with challenging or senior pets!”

About: I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages (I am always the go-to friend to dogs and housesit). Our family has an 8-year-old doodle named Stela, so I understand the importance of proper care and daily walks. Additionally, I have a good intuition regarding dogs and can sense if something is wrong or if we should cross the street because the owner doesn't want their dog to meet another one. As a responsible pet owner, I prioritize daily care and exercise. I ensure fresh water is available throughout the day and take regular breaks for bathroom walks. Weekly routines include walks, playing and thorough cleaning of their living spaces. I also schedule regular veterinary check-ups and maintain a consistent schedule for preventative medications. Hi there! Just wanted to let you know that I take a proactive approach when it comes to communicating with clients. As soon as I arrive at the house, I send a quick text message to let them know I'm there. Throughout the day, I also provide one or two status updates to keep them in the loop and reassured that everything is going well with their pet. And of course, I always make sure to leave the home clean and tidy. Thanks for choosing me as your pet sitter!
