Cat Sitting Palmer

“Madelyn was absolutely wonderful! I got detailed updates daily while I was gone for two weeks, including a bunch of photos with the text updates. She communicated clearly how both were doing each day, and I could tell she was making every effort to comfort my shy cat. I always worry leaving them alone in the house, but had no reason to with Madelyn checking in on them daily. Absolutely recommend her, and will request her in the future 🙂”

“Robin did an awesome job with my two old men. I would highly recommend her and will hopefully be able to have her sit for me again.”

About: Whether you have dogs or cats, I’m here to help! I’ve had dogs and cats all my life and I know how hard it is to look for someone reliable to be there when you’re not. I am good at following any directions that are given to ensure that your fur babies are cared for and comfortable. So if you need anyone to drop in please reach out. Also if you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask :) I have a pretty set schedule when it comes to my day job. Outside of that and on the weekends I’m free. So if I need to stop by in the morning or afternoon, I’ll be there. I’d say I’m flexible as far as time and distance goes. My home is cozy and safe. I have a fully fenced yard with lots of space to play. I have 2 dogs that could use the extra playtime.

“Great communication everyday to keep us informed of how Tallie was doing. Appreciated this to know she was ok.”

“Salem was solid. She was available on short notice, had great references, and I felt I could trust her with Noches care.”

“Hailey did a great job. She always kept in contact with me each day and let me know that she could find the cats if I asked her. Let me know their food and water levels as well. Great job, thank you!”

About: I’ve lived with pets my whole life, gaining years of hands-on experience with animals of all kinds. Volunteering at an animal shelter has allowed me to care for pets with a variety of needs, including special medical or behavioral requirements. I’m always ready for long adventures on trails with active pups or a quiet day at home with relaxed furry friends. My goal is to provide love, attention, and customized care to ensure your pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently an online college student and work full time, but I can make accommodations. My online classes give me a flexible schedule, and I’m happy to work with you to find the best time to care for your pet. I’m dedicated to ensuring every pet gets the attention and care they need, no matter the schedule. Safety is my top priority when caring for pets. On Alaska’s trails, I take extra precautions to ensure pets are secure, safe from wildlife, and prepared for the weather. At home, I create a clean, hazard-free environment and am vigilant about managing allergies or specific sensitivities. I’m trained to handle emergencies, including performing the Heimlich maneuver on both cats and dogs, and I maintain a strong focus on personal safety while caring for animals. My goal is to provide a safe, secure, and enjoyable experience for every pet in my care.

“Alicia did great with our 3 different sized dogs and was understanding when we had to cancel one of the drop-ins. We will be booking her services again.”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, so becoming a dog and cat sitter 4 years ago was a given. From senior snoozers to zoomy puppies, from ‘don’t touch me’ cats to ‘please love me immediately’ cats—I’ve handled it all and loved every second. I’m currently part time so I would have plenty of time to check in with your pets. My job is very flexible with breaks so I would still be able to check in halfway through the day. If watching pets in your home, I will ask for a list of expectations (feed times, concerns) so I can do the best job. I will be diligent about updating you, sending photos, and asking questions if they arise.

“Hannah provided my dogs with great care and the attention that they needed. She also sent me pictures and a detailed report after every visit!”

“Tania did a wonderful job taking care of my animals. She was always on time for check ins, and my animals were all happy and healthy when I returned from my trip. I would absolutely recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”

About: I’m not a teen :) so I will show up without fail on time every time. I’m not the cheap option but I guarantee that there’ll be no surprises if you hire me. If you have multiple pets, please reach out to me, we can discuss a personalized rate. I am around dogs and cats all my life, that’s my happy place and I love every aspect of it, even the not so glamorous parts like cleaning, listening to barking, or dealing with emergencies. I worked at a pet Resort for years here in Alaska working with all types of furry friends. I have a soft spot for seniors, I also have a lovely old lady in my home, a 12 year old German Shepherd, Molly. If I may suggest something to any pet owner in our valley: please don’t choose your sitter based on who’s the cheapest available option… taking care of your pets in your home is a big responsibility. Great joy as well of course but it must be done with 100% attention, care and love. I can promise that 100% because that’s the only setting in my book when it comes to animals. Please feel free to reach out to me if you need help, I would love to be there for you and for your pets. I raised three children, all grown-up now. I have the time now for your pets. Because of my love for animals, I look forward to helping you when you need it! Safety is THE most important aspect of taking care of a pet, so before I start working with one I always have multiple questions to the owner. Knowing your doggie, knowing the routine, the environment etc is a crucial factor in providing a safe and quality service.

“Excellent! Responds quickly! Easy to work with! Accepted last minute and came out to meet Mack before taking care of him! Absolutely would recommend and use again!”

About: Iv had dogs my entire life. From labs to bullterriers, pitbulls, britneys,GPS puppies. I will take care of yours as I would my own. Walks, parks if yours likes parks, cuddles, anything they need. I work from home so I have lots of flexibility to care for your pups! I’m available for boarding on weekends and most weekdays after 2pm. I’m happy to accommodate early mornings or extended stays with advance notice, and I’m quick to respond to messages. Your dog’s safety is always my top priority. Dogs are always leashed outside and stay within my sight at all times. I closely follow your care instructions, keep a calm and attentive environment, and make sure pets get plenty of love, supervision, and safe play. I treat every dog like they’re my own.

About: I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs and senior care for dogs. I am happiest when I am taking care of animals in whatever way they need love and care. I especially love helping out with farm animals whenever I have the chance! I currently work part time so have plenty of time Wednesday through Sunday to care for your pets. I prefer to check on them in their own homes frequently each day giving them plenty of time to run around and play or have some love and companionship. When I check on your pets in their homes I will be sure they have everything they need to be comfortable and safe while I’m away. I will also spend an hour with them to make sure they have plenty of time to do their business outside and get their wiggles out if they need it.

About: I have cared for dogs all my life and I love building personal connections with animals. I miss being around dogs since I lost my own, so I truly understand how special they are. I put my heart into every walk and drop-in, making sure each pet gets the love, attention, and exercise they deserve. I am also a big mountain girl and would love to take your dog for a hike! I focus on creating a fun and safe environment, and I love sharing updates and pics with you so you can see how much joy they bring! I'm dedicated to providing the best care for your furry friend! My primary availability is Thursday through Saturday, but I'm also happy to fit in walks after 7 PM on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday’s!! Please contact me so we can find a time that works best for everyone. As a dedicated pet sitter and walker, I prioritize safety, trust, and a nurturing environment. During drop-ins and walks, I ensure your dog’s well-being by avoiding busy roads and keeping a close eye on your pet! I also prioritize building a strong bond through positive interactions and reinforcement. Whether it’s a walk or a drop-in visit, I can ensure your pet will receive plenty of exercise and affection!

“I last minute booked and was able to leave within the hour of the request. I left the house a mess and came back to the house being slick and span. I absolutely adore Heaven! She is the only sitter we use!”

Jamie S.

“Jamie was great. She came by before we left to learn where everything was and sent updates while we were gone with cute pictures. Will be using her next time I travel for sure!”

Erinn N.

“Katie is such a treasure! She took incredibly good care of my pups, sharing pics and observations of them the whole time I was away. Even went above and beyond and made an extra visit when my flight home was delayed. So glad she’s joined us here in the Wood River Valley!”
