Cat Sitting Ormondsville

“Riley took great care of our animals. She followed our instructions, and sent many pictures. Our cats were of course happy to see us, but they did not seemed stressed when we arrived home. I would book her again.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was a teen. My experience started with the dogs and cats of family friends and neighbors and eventually progressed by word of mouth. I’ve cared for all sorts of animals, including dogs and cats, exotics, and even farm animals—the sky is truly the limit! Additionally I have experience providing medications/medical care to pets and I strive to be as accommodating as possible for the individual needs of every animal. I always aim to go above and beyond for people and their pets because I would expect that same level of service for my own dog and cats. Note: I’ve been inactive on Rover for the last few years that I’ve been in grad school, but have recently decided that I’d like to get back into pet care since it’s something I truly enjoy. Despite my years off, I’ve had many opportunities to care for others’ pets (including my own) so I’m just picking things up where I left off. You can be confident that my services will meet (and exceed) your expectations. I just graduated with my master’s and I’d love to spend time doing something I really enjoy. Pet sitting is one of my favorite ways to make money and it’s really perfect now that I have more control over my schedule. Along with providing exceptional care for your pet(s), I also prioritize respect for you and your home. It is a privilege to be trusted with your pet and in your personal space, therefore I will always follow any guidelines/rules you have in place.

About: I have owned dogs, cats, turtles, and various rodents throughout my entire life and I have always cherished animals. I have received my veterinary assistant certification from Craven Community College and I have over 2 years of pet sitting experience. I understand that pets are not just animals. They are our family and deserve to be treated as such. I am very experienced with pet care. I have cared for pets throughout my entire life and I find it therapeutic to care for and love all animals. I work about 3 days a week so my schedule is very open. I am a full time student but I only have 2 classes a day and I have lots of free time. Most people say I spoil my dog. I have always felt connected to animal and I fully believe that they are “people” just like us. For me, a pet is like a child. They require just as much love. I would never put an animals in harms way. I hold them to the same standard as humans.

About: I took care of several family dogs from the age of 10 to the age of 19. I have walked/played with/cleaned up after/fed Australian cattle dog mixes, Australian Shepherd mixes, an American Black Labrador , Shih Tzus, and Dachshunds. I'm used to both low and high energy dogs and have also worked with both ESAs and Service dogs. I work part time and my graduate classes are at night or online so my schedule is flexible during mornings, weekends, and afternoons. I can't do overnights or care in my own home due to my pets boundaries and needs. I will follow all safeguards given to me by the client and adhere to all care instructions. Based on the animals energy I will provide the proper enrichment and will always respect the animals boundaries. When I am taking care of your pet I will keep the space as picked up as I found it and will always clean up after the pet including cleaning litter boxes and making sure to pick up on dog walks and in outside play areas. Harnesses and collars will be put on as instructed and I will make sure to keep distance from other animals on walks to protect your pet.

About: Hi!! I’m Mac, your pet’s new favorite human (hopefully)! 🐾💗 Animals are pretty much my entire life! I’m currently the Assistant Director at the Humane Society of Eastern Carolina, so spending my days surrounded by wagging tails, wet noses, and all kinds of personalities is nothing new to me! I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other furry friends of all ages, sizes, and temperaments! From energetic puppies to senior couch potatoes, I love them all! I’m also comfortable administering medications, following special care routines, grooming/ bathing and working with pets who need a little extra patience and TLC. I know leaving your pets with someone new can be nerve-racking, so my goal is to make sure they feel right at home while giving you peace of mind! Expect lots of love, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of pictures and updates along the way! Whether your pet is an adventure buddy or a professional napper, I can’t wait to meet them and spoil them like they’re my own! 🐶💕 Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily routine, as it has become an integral part of my life. I understand that pets require consistent care, attention, and love, and I prioritize their well-being alongside my own daily activities. From the moment I wake up, I ensure that feeding, exercise, and playtime are seamlessly integrated into my schedule. I work full time with the local Humane Society where taking care of little furry friends has basically become second nature to me, i have a few pets of my own and often have fosters in and out of the house that i have developed a routine that allows me to still work full time and make sure they are taken care of! Whether it's a refreshing morning walk, engaging play sessions in the afternoon, or cozy cuddle time in the evening, I make sure to allocate dedicated moments throughout the day to cater to their needs. I often have ample time during my break, after my shift ends and on my off days where i could come and lend a helping hand! I treat every pet in my care like they’re my own! I understand that every animal has different needs, personalities, and routines, so I make sure to provide care that keeps them comfortable, happy, and safe. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, medications, or just some extra attention, I always follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. I also provide regular pictures and updates so you can feel confident knowing your pets are in good hands while you’re away!

About: My experience into dog care started 9 years ago, and my time working with cats started less than a year later. My experience of both dogs with a hyper or dissociative personality and felines with bad temperament was mostly gained while working at various animal shelters. Some shelter dogs and cats are not temperamental on their own but sometimes will instinctively react to those who are being the aggressors, as is their nature. it's often very similar at dog parks- A Gathering of many unknown dogs, some likely to be reactive to others and always a few having chance of causing a fight. Something I keep in mind for safety every time I have an interaction with a dog I don't know while walking someone else's that I was entrusted the care of, is that other animals I don't know will always be unpredictable. Outside my charity work for shelters, for an even longer amount of time I've taken care of pets of many ages and breeds for family/friends going on 9 years now. I have handled many large breeds; Labradors, Huskies, Great Danes, German Shepards, Mastiffs. I have also worked with various medium and small sized breeds. My total 2 years of experience with puppies was spread out caring for and helping raise pups my sister had gotten. Between raising puppies and trying to work with pets giving me a hard time during the course of my many dog sitting jobs I have seen and learnt countless things about our furry friends! To list a few; common dog and cat habits, nutrition, toxic foods for dogs, signs of aggressive body language in pets, and abnormal behavior alongside possible causes. Any and all pet needs such as sitting, walking, etc. I'm available to do every day of the week, as I have a clear schedule for the time being. When at a client's house, if instructions are not already given to me I will ask the owner's typical routine with their pet and see what they want or need done for their dog or cat. I'd Also ask general house rules like backyard access, and if I could entertain the fuzzy friends with toys for enrichment.

“Kat was exceptional! She not only did what was needed but went above and beyond for our furbabies. Even after one specific hard day she still made a point to do her check in even though it wasn’t specifically needed. She communicated with me the whole time and sent lovely pictures. She even cleaned up a little on her last day as a special cherry on top. Will be using her services again!”

About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up around dogs, cats, birds, reptiles and more and could never get enough. I have worked 1-1 with a dog trainer to up my skills and have experience boarding, training and walking pets of all ages. If you have reptiles and would like to book pet sitting please feel free to reach out and we can book that externally! I have a flexible schedule so I can work around your pet care needs and make their experience exciting and special! If there are any special requirements I will always work with you and your pet to make sure their needs are met in the best way possible! Pet comfort and safety is my top priority. On walks I always carry a spare leash just in case we encounter other off lead dogs and I need to secure them!
