Cat Sitting Ottawa Lake

“Kaity is amazing! Our cats were taken care of so well. She was responsive, thoughtful, and truly wonderful. We hope to use her again when we travel. Kaity made our vacation so much better because I felt like all was taken care of at our home. Highly recommend her!”

“Molly was great with our dogs! She was also very responsive when booked last minute and any time we messaged her. Will definitely be booking again!”

About: Hi! I’m Lily, and caring for animals is genuinely one of my favorite things in life. I’ve had pets my whole life and have also worked at a doggy daycare, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I own dogs myself—they’re very docile and love having friends—so I understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including anxious pups and dogs with special needs. One of my dogs is deaf and responds to sign, so I’m especially patient, attentive, and tuned in to nonverbal communication. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, structured walks, or just a calm and comforting presence, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, and updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely excited to meet your pets. I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve! I do work 730-330 M-F but my partner (Jeremy) is home by 2:30 PM every day, and we’re both home in the evenings, so your pet will have plenty of supervision, attention, and company. We make sure pets are never left alone for long periods and always prioritize their comfort and routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific schedule and needs—just let me know what works best for them! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. We have a fully fenced-in backyard with turf, providing a clean and secure space for safe outdoor play and bathroom breaks. Inside, our home is pet-proofed to prevent access to anything unsafe, and we always supervise interactions to ensure a calm and controlled environment. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, secure, and well-managed environment at all times.

About: I love all pets and grew up with two dogs during my childhood. I have experience caring for friends’ and neighbors’ dogs. I now have a dog and cat of my own. I am open to caring for exotic pets such as guinea pigs, as I have had two in the past. I am open to drop in visits and dog walking. I look forward to helping you and your pets and making sure they are looked after while you are away! My availability varies week-to-week as I work part-time three days a week and my schedule changes weekly. I usually have open availability on Sundays. I do have two young children, so if I am needed on a day other than Friday or Sunday, I may bring them with me. I am willing to provide professional and personal references and more information if needed. Thank you in advance! My schedule varies as I work three days a week, various days each week, but most Sundays I have open availability. I do get my schedule a month in advance. When with your pet, I will assure that they are properly fed, exercised, and played with in order to provide proper care while you are away.

“We had another great experience with Ava.”

“She has been wonderful!! Always on time and our dog adores her! Even offered to stay later to make sure he got the chance to potty again before leaving. No complaints! Thank you for the help Amber 😁”

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, i’ve even lived on a farm! I enjoy the company animals give me and how I can understand their love and appreciation without words. I have been around pets from dogs and cats, to turtles and ferrets. I have always been able to bond well with plenty of animals and it makes me happy knowing I can take care of them. I am a full-time college student at UToledo, majoring in Psychology! Although I am taking 5 classes, I still have many gaps in my schedule, and I would love to be able to use my time to play with animals! At the moment, I do not have my own animal, as my previous one passed away. I'd love to make my day a bit brighter and more exciting by watching your sweet animals! Unfortunately, I will not be able to pet-sit or care for any animals in my own home due to living in an apartment, having no fenced-in yard, and not having much space for pets to roam around. I am able, though, to go to anyone’s home to watch their pet and take it from there. I love being outside, so walks are definitely a must for animals that need lots of walking (or any cats/other animals who love to go outside). I will take pictures to send to the animal's owners, record medical information, clean up after the pets/bathroom area, and take on any other needed requests. I will ask questions and get to know what I can/can’t do with the pets before I try to do anything! I am very flexible, and I am here to help you and make your life easier!

“Maria took great care of our cat while we were out of town. She kept us updated on how he was doing while gave us such peace of mind while we were away!”

About: I have worked in the vet field as a vet assistant for 9 years . I have owned animals since I could remember and caring for animals is all I know ! I will do my best to work with whatever your schedule is like! We can discuss times and days that work best for you i also offer twice a day drop ins for the owner who work longer days! Updates always! I like to send pictures and text messages updating owners how the pet is doing and what activities we do. I always greet the pets first and I like to greet with a preferred snack of pet and owners choice . Checking if need food or water / refreshing water bowls and scheduled feedings . Letting them outside to use restroom and a small play session with their pick of toy / activity . Giving praise and a treat . Lots more love before leaving and I always like to give them a favorite toy or sometimes owner have preferred going away treats when they leave the house. Gives a pet comfort and distraction when leaving.

About: I have had dogs as a family pet since 2008. Currently have 2 dogs who are very loved and spoiled to death 😊 I started off dog sitting for a family member in 2019 with a senior dog, and then a puppy a couple years later. I have also house/pet sit for a family friend for the past few years as well. They have 4 dogs (ranging from 15 lbs to 100+ lbs) and 3 cats. I have a good rapport with both groups and can provide references if needed! I also have experience with sitting a 1 cat household as well for one of my friends. In my household, my sisters and I have potty-trained and skill-trained every one of our family pets (we have had 4 now). I have experience with giving pets medications as they need following the owner’s specific instructions. Lastly, I have walked dogs of all kinds of sizes (miniature pinscher all the way to a Great Pyrenees). I look forward to helping you with your pet needs!! I’m currently working full time Monday-Friday from 10am-7pm. I work at a pretty lenient place that gives me lunch breaks up to an hour and a half long, so in the past if a pet I have watched needs a potty break midday, I can go back on my lunch break to do so. I have availability after getting off from this job as well, so I can accommodate to late nights as well. I don’t work weekends there so I have pretty much open availability every weekend. 😊 I currently live at home with my parents and sisters, so I do not offer pet sitting at my home at this time. I have pet sat for people in different home styles (apartment, single-level home with small yard, two-story home with big yard). I have always followed every owner’s instructions and rules to a T. Every owner has loved my care with their pets and continues to put their trust in me to this day. I have several references that I can provide if needed!

“Allison was amazing! Our two senior cats require a lot of attention and care. We came home to two very comfy and relaxed cats and were so grateful for all her time and energy caring for them while we were away. She handled their quirks with stride and gave our one cat his daily medicine and made sure everyone got treats and pets. Thank you so much!!”
