Cat Sitting in Ottsville

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for most of my life. Whether it be friends, family, or neighbors - I have always been the go to person for pet care! I enjoy all shapes, sizes, and breeds and want to make your dog feel comfortable, cared for, and loved. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible. The best part of my day is when I get to step away and enjoy some time with my dogs, whether it be going for a walk, tossing the ball or just sitting inside with them on a rainy day. I’m amenable to care for every pet how their owner wishes them to be cared for. For my dogs, we don’t allow them on the furniture, but they have plenty of dog beds to choose from and otherwise have free rein to do as they please!

“Carol sent me a bunch of pictures while she was stopping by to visit my kitties which was super appreciated. She followed all the instructions I left for her, and let me know when she was coming and going. Thank you, Carol!”

“Taryn's care of our dogs was excellent. They are not used to a sitter but were comfortable with her,,ate their dinner, and romped in the backyard. We are very pleased and know we will be contacting her again.”

“Juliette was so responsive with the lead-up to her watching my cat, Artemis. She contacted me about how Artemis was doing during each visit and she was so kind. I would recommend booking her because she really made sure Artemis was well looked after.”

“Superb experience. I trust only a handful of people on Earth with my pets — I now fully trust Jennifer & Jason. They took care of my beloved, very elderly cats as if they were their own, allowing me to take one of my first real vacations in years. ❤️”

About: Hello! My name is Katerina. I have experience with small and large breeds. Growing up, our family had a Great Dane! In my single years, I cared for a beloved Jack Russel terrier from when she was an energetic pup until nearly 17. Currently, I live with my husband Seth and our two daughters, ages 11 and 13. Our little homestead includes a few chickens, a busy hive, and a cat whom we adopted five years ago. We are considering adopting a dog to keep our chickens safe from predators and to be a hiking companion in our travels. I am a full time homemaker and homeschooling parent. My schedule is very flexible. My days include educating my daughters ages 11 and 13 and running a small homestead of a few chickens, bees, and a cat. I love hiking at Ringing Rocks, Lake Nockamixon, and Delaware River canal towpath. Your dog would be a welcome companion on the hikes! If you have a senior dog, he will receive plenty of loving attention and companionship in our home. Our small homestead offers privacy and space for play and running. Your dog may enjoy cooling off in the creek that runs through the property. We live near Delaware canal towpath and Nockamixon state park. Both places offer excellent hiking and walking options for dogs!

About: I have 5 dogs of my own! I have a Pitbull mix, Australian Shepherd, 2 elderly Terrier Mixes, and a Redbone Coonhound! I have previously cared for 3 elderly Poodles who needed special medical care which was administered during my visits. I periodically sit for neighbors and family's pets while they are away. I have grown up with multiple animals my whole life and am always excited to meet new friends big or small! I have a current job at a retirement home in which I work about 5 days a week. I only work shifts of 3-4 hours from 4-7:30pm give or take. Outside of those hours I am almost always free! We currently have a fenced in yard for our dogs but I always provide supervision when I let them out. I take my able dogs for longer walks when the weather is fit. I always make sure our dogs have fresh water and food to keep them well nourished and healthy. For my elderly dog, we provide her with medication each morning.

About: Aside from my 3 personal pets, I have raised 4 Seeing Eye dogs and pet sat for over a dozen families. I have experience in dog first aid, potty training, and reactive dogs. Socialization is important and I have the knowledge on how to do so safely for each individual dog. All breeds of dogs are welcome. I work from home and am available 24/7. I love being able to take the dogs on either long walks or a quick potty break. I have a fenced in yard and a crate available for any size dog. I am aware of dog safe foods and carry Benadryl and hydrogen peroxide for emergencies.

“RACHEL was the best pet sitter we ever had. Caring and compassionate, she expertly handled Barney and Bree with exceptional care. We would highly recommend her to anyone. Rachel is the best. Thank you!!!!”

About: Life long animal lover I've taken care of many different kinds of pets! I had a frog growing up, fish, cats, dogs, and I've helped pet sit numerous times for a friend for his goat, chickens, turtle, geese, turkeys, ducks, and dogs (puppies, adult dogs and a senior dog with medications who needed extra tlc). I also work here and there at a local horse farm feeding and cleaning stalls as well as turning 45+ horses out to pasture. I'm used to handling strong pulling animals (I like to think being able to handle an antsy 1200+ lb animal prepares me for most anything haha), and my own strong pulling dog so I'm well versed to handling eager dogs on walks. I've been able to administer medications to senior dogs, my own dog needed 5 different medicines for a few weeks during heartworm treatment and my cat currently is transitioning to a prescription urinary diet so I know a few tricks to getting medicine to them as well as doling out special meals. I'm currently switching to working 2 part time jobs 7 days a week to only working 1 of those jobs maybe 2-3 days a week so I'm looking to fill my time with taking care of your furry best friends and probably working more at the horse farm too. My schedule for work is made at least a month in advance and I don't work weekends since I work for a dental office so I have some free time to do this now. Looking to walk your dog, drop in on your cats/dogs while you're away and maybe open to short overnight stays in your home if I can arrange for my own doggie to be taken care of because he gets really lonely and upset if I'm not home at night, otherwise I'd have it on my profile that I was available for that too. I will follow your every instruction and request for taking care of your pet in your home, I can crate you dog and handle letting them out, making sure they don't get off leash or out of your fenced in yard and make sure your cat doesn't slip out the doorway when I come in. I have some sneaky pets myself sometimes and I feel I've become a master at outsmarting even the sneakiest pet. I'll make sure your pets have plenty of fresh water, the right amount of food, nothing is left out for them to get into or chew up, and cleaned litterboxes! I believe in treating your pet like my own and providing the utmost care and respect for both them and your home.

About: I’ve had a dog of my own for 10 years now, and love pet sitting for friends and family! I would love to take care of your pet while at work or vacation! Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns! I’m a college student home for the summer so I’m have a very open and flexible schedule! I will be away periodically, but am always flexible and willing to help! I have a yellow lab at home who is very friendly and feel very comfortable taking care of dogs! While I likely wouldn’t have my dog socialize with new dogs, I’d be happy to take your pet to a local dog park to get some exercise and play, or take them to a local park for a long walk.

“Thank you Taryn for being conscientious and attentive for us and our cats. We appreciate that you went above and beyond to make them be comfortable and okay during your visits.”

“Tyler was awesome! Communicative and made our cat look very photogenic on the daily check ins.”

About: As someone who loves animals, I have had the pleasure of dog/cat sitting for close friends whenever they’re away. While I’m not a professional trainer, I’ve enjoyed teaching my own dog some fun tricks and always strive to provide a fun, engaging experience for the pets I care for. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just giving them plenty of attention and love, I make sure your pets feel comfortable and happy while you’re gone! I’m currently a graduate student studying Speech-Language Pathology so my schedule varies from day to day. Whether you need a sitter during the week or over the weekend, I’m flexible and will work with your schedule to ensure your pet gets the care and attention they deserve! I have a fenced in yard to let my dog out. I always make sure my dog & other dogs are on a leash for safety precautions.

About: I was born into a family that had furbabies and my entire life is littered (pun intended) with sweet moments with pets past and current. Growing up, we always had a mix of dogs, cats, rabbits, rodents and even chickens. As I entered adulthood, I really wanted a furry friend of my very own--that's when I adopted my cat, Macadamia Nut! A couple of years later, my husband found his bonded furbabies. (: I understand how important your pet(s) is/are to you, that's why your pet's safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities! With a passion for furry friends and an active lifestyle, I would be more than happy (and honored) to watch after your pet(s). I can guarantee that they will be played with, fed, and given allllll the attention. I work remotely, which means that most of my week days are very flexible! I really love going for walks and getting outdoors, so I can easily drop in and spend intentional time with your furbabies, giving them quality attention! My top priority is ensuring the safety of the pet I am looking after, as well as allowing their owner to have peace of mind. While you're away, I want you to be able to rest and fully enjoy whatever adventure you're on. I value clear communication and transparency with clients, that way I can ensure that I understand and respect any specific needs.

About: Your pet’s new best friend and spoiler when you’re not around. With a degree in Animal Science and over 30 years of experience in everything from paws to claws (and even scales and feathers!), I’ve worked as a veterinary technician, an animal behaviorist (yes, I speak fluent dog AND cat), and I’ve even run my own pet care company for years providing daily walks, home visits and even house sitting. Whether your dog thinks they’re a couch potato or your cat is a secret ninja, I’m here to make sure they’re pampered, safe, and entertained. From horses to hedgehogs, I’ve got you covered – and their best interests are always my top priority. Your pets will be in the hands of an experienced professional who’s equally passionate about their care and keeping them spoiled while you're away. Looking forward to meeting your fur, feathered, or scaly family members soon! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to book a complimentary meet & greet session. I am currently working as a full-time teacher, but am very accommodating and flexible to stay overnight, do morning and afternoon visits to see your pets are safe and happy. On the weekends I can be there around the clock, but during the week I am away for work. Unfortunately, I don't offer sitting in my home. Landlord's rules, not mine. But I am happy to take care of your pets in their own environment by staying at yours, which research shows is less stressful and traumatic for your pet.

About: I’ve been a dedicated dog mom for years — I currently have three of my own, all of whom I’ve trained myself or are currently in training. I’m patient, reliable, and truly understand that every dog has their own personality and needs. I’m comfortable with everything from daily walks and playtime to administering medication and overnight stays. Whether you have a high-energy puppy or a senior needing extra care, I treat every dog like they’re my own — with love, structure, and plenty of belly rubs! In between work, my dogs are my life. I have a very laid-back work schedule and make sure they get the exercise and love they need throughout the day. I have 3 very friendly dogs who are all crate and house-trained. They have a consistent schedule and exercise daily! We do parks, walks, hikes, swimming, and running!

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and have always watched my sister, friends and neighbors animals when needed!! I am looking forward to meeting your fur babies! I’m currently working full time but I have tuesdays and sundays off. I am usually free in the evenings as well. I would love to care for your fur babies when I am available to I live in the rural part of ottsville so I have a nice size yard! I would love to run around and play with your dogs. Also my house is cozy for cats and dogs !

About: Hi! I’m a college student who simply loves dogs and would love the opportunity to meet yours and build a connection! :) I’ve been surrounded by animals all my life and have a deep love for dogs. My family currently has 3 dogs, and I’ve played a big role in training and taking care of them. I’m well equip working with dogs of any size, our biggest boy is a Bernese mountain dog/Saint Bernard mix (~200lbs) while the smallest is my baby boy who’s a Pomeranian/poodle mix (~15lbs). I can work with multiple dogs as long as they’re friendly with one another and I can also work with more stubborn dogs one on one. I’m comfortable with both younger and older dogs as well, as I have much experience with both. I have experience from my own home, to volunteering at pet rescues, to daily walks from customers and pet sitting over night for friends, family and customers alike. I am confident in my ability to provide more than substantial care for your pets, I am passionate about the health and well being of animals and I will ensure to show that with my work. Please let me know of any questions or concerns, I’m more than happy to answer! Thank you so much for reading and for your consideration. I’m looking forward to meeting new pups! :) I’m currently a college student with extra time in between my classes. My overall availability is pretty open for the summer, I have no other obligations than a part time job for now. I’m a very cautious person who will always be looking out for your pet’s wants needs. I will ALWAYS respect the way you train your pets and how you would like them cared for. I understand training varies per person and pet and I will always respect the way you personally train your pets. Communication goes a long way with me, I will do whatever you need for your dogs. :)
