Cat Sitting Palouse

“Aspen was gentle with my rabbit and left thorough notes. Responsive, reliable, and respectful. Asked questions when needed and sent good photos.”

“Morgan was fabulous with our 3 crazy dogs-managing feeding, bathroom and bedtime schedules. It was fun and we really appreciated receiving daily pictures of our pups too! Morgan is also great about reaching out with any questions or concerns. We look forward to having her back again!”

About: I have been pet sitting for most of my life as well as caring for my own animals at home. I have worked at, volunteered at, and fostered for dog and cat shelters as well as many other animals, and have volunteered and worked at a veterinary teaching hospital. You will not find someone more passionate or empathetic about animals of any and all shapes and sizes. When people weren’t there for me, my animals were, and I have vowed to be there just the same for them. I am a strong creature of habit, and love a good structured routine to my day. Feeding all of my animals is a heavy part of that, and the best part. I start and finish my days making sure everyone is fed, loved, and happy, and if they are then it is a good day. Being able to take a lunch break to visit more animals is an added bonus that I will look forward to all day. I always make sure to specialize care to the animals themselves, and mimic how their own parents care for them. If an animal needs more frequent visits, longer visits, extra play time, medications, specialized meal plans or supervised meals I will always accommodate to the best of my ability. I will never leave an animal until they are satisfied with my service.

“Megan was a wonderful cat sitter while we were gone. I highly recommend her.”

“Sara is AMAZING! She took care of my 3 cats for 10 days and did more than expected. She was prompt with stopping by everyday after her classes to feed and check on the cats. She spent time each evening giving them snuggles and pets. Cleaned their bowls and litter box and sent me photos everyday. I felt very comfortable knowing they were well cared for while I was gone and by the photos it looked my cats were very happy too 😊 She is a vet student at WSU so I also knew that if any of cats were sick, she would take good care of them and get them any needed medical attention. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”

About: I’m CPR & First-Aid certified with significant experience caregiving for animals of various species. I’d love to provide superior companionship, dependable care, and complete any and all pet tasks needed. I’m hoping to save up money to attend a study abroad trip this summer. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. I will be in Pullman for the majority of this summer. My summer is very open to cat sit, depending on the dates needed. I can stop by multiple times a day, spend the night, etc. I’m willing to help w most animal care tasks, just let me know! I live in a 4-bed apartment currently. It is very quiet most of the time, and will be mostly open during the summer. I have a private bathroom, the cats are free to roam wherever. I have a large stainless steel litter box, water bowl, dry and wet food, treats, toys, hideouts, etc. I can also travel to others’ homes.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 11. From my dog, to my family member's dogs, I've taken them on walks, given medication through pill pockets, fed them, brushed them, played with them, and given them all the love and attention they could ever want! I'm working part time, so I can give as much attention as possible to your pets! I'll be constantly in the area, so no need to worry about your pet being alone for too long. I’ll take the fur baby (or babies) on walks, play with them, love on them, and everything in between! Any need they could have, I can meet.

“Audrey was great! She communicated well and sent the cutest pics of my cat.”

“Sydney was punctual, thorough, and gave my black Lab lots of extra attention on her drop-in feeding/ dog-walk visits. I would definitely recommend her.”

About: I am familiar with animal care for dogs, cats, chickens, and some birds. I have been a short-period caretaker for various animals since high school. I love spending time with energy-filled animals, old seniors, birds, and everything in between. I have overnight dog sat for up to 3 weeks at a time. I enjoy going on walks and spending time lounging with furry pals. I do not have experience training, but I am happy to follow any detailed instructions provided :) Currently, I am a full-time student at WSU. Which leaves me with limited services, but I am happy to fit in what I can! I am mostly available for morning and afternoon dog walks :) After graduation on May 9th, I will be a pretty open book as I do not plan to be working this summer aside from pet care. I do not travel much, so I will be available for longer care periods! I am able to adapt to unique daily routines and distribute medicine as needed. I am quick to learn and love making new furry pals!

About: I have worked professionally with dogs for the past 4 years, and have had experience caring for them personally throughout most of my life. I also occasionally volunteer at the Whitman County Humane Society. I am comfortable handling dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, and have plenty of experience with administering medications, following elaborate care instructions, and cleaning all kinds of messes. I love dogs and love keeping them happy and healthy! I am currently in between jobs, so my availability is pretty wide open. If you are considering me for your pet’s care, I can make as many home visits during the day as you need and am able to stay with your pet overnight as well. Due to sharing my living space with others, I am not available to have pets stay with me in my home at this time. I have a fear-free approach when handling animals, and will let them choose the pacing of our interactions. I want to make sure your pet is as comfortable as possible!

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 10. I have cared for a blind senior cat as well as a cat with hip problems, which required patience, close monitoring, and adapting the environment to keep them safe and comfortable. I currently help care for my friend’s senior dog, who also has hip and dental issues, so I’m familiar with administering gentle support, maintaining comfort, and being attentive to mobility limitations and pain cues. In addition, I have experience caring for younger animals, including kittens and puppies around 12 weeks old. This has given me practice with high-energy care, feeding routines, supervision, and basic early-life behavior management. Overall, I’m comfortable working with both senior pets and young animals, and I adjust my care style based on each pet’s specific health, energy level, and personality needs. Pet care fits into my routine pretty easily because I currently have a part-time job with a very variable schedule. Since my shifts change from week to week, I’m generally flexible and available most days with some notice. This flexibility allows me to adjust around pet care responsibilities like feeding, walks, check-ins, or overnight stays when needed. I’m also used to planning my time in a way that ensures animals are consistently cared for, even on busier days, so I can reliably fit pet care into my weekly schedule. In my home, I would make sure any pet is cared for in a safe, comfortable, and supervised environment. While my apartment doesn’t have a backyard, there is a fenced-in area nearby where dogs can run, play fetch, and get exercise. I also have a car, so if the owner is comfortable with it, I can take the dogs to a dog park for additional enrichment and activity. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions are followed closely. I’m also very mindful of respecting the home itself. I was raised to always leave a place cleaner than I found it, so I make sure everything is kept tidy, organized, and exactly as I found it. Communication is also important to me, so I always update owners and let them know right away if anything seems off or if there are any concerns about their pet’s health, behavior, or well-being.

About: Hi, my name is Carly. I myself am a dog mom and I understand how important it is to make sure your loved ones are in good care. I love taking care of animals. They are always part to the family. Growing up I have taken care of many animals for as long as I can remember. I work my schedule around the pet's schedule. Whether it's a quick little walk or long hours of play time. Every pet has their own needs that need to be met in a scheduled time. I personally love to give them my undivided attention. Playing fetch and dog games with them helps build a bond and trust. My dogs love to play fetch and go for walks, so I always set time aside for take them outside for a couple hours to play and go for a walk.

About: I have had a plethora of dogs growing up all ranging from little Pomeranians to cattle driven Border Collies to Great big Danes! In my four years of pet experience, I worked with two Cane Corso’s training, walking, cleaning up all their drool, washing them, and overnight watching them from puppies together till I had to sadly leave them to come to school this year. I watched them everyday for 5+ hours, taking them on walks and always was willing to drive them to the mountains because I know how much they love the snow. I am willing to take your dogs anywhere to reach their maximum happiness and the 10,000 steps dogs need too! I never missed a day of sitting them and if I had to miss one, I always made sure to rely that information with plenty of time ahead. I am in the agriculture industry, and am strong enough and not afraid to deal with reactive and high energy dogs, since I have experience with both. I would love to see the adventures I can take your pets on! I am a student at the University of Idaho, but M/W/F before 8:30, and after 1:30 I am available to book any service! Tuesday’s I am free to give my undivided attention to any pup or cat! Usually my afternoons consist of homework and taking my own puppy on walks and to the park to play fetch. So taking care of animals and putting my time forward to pets is not second nature, it’s a routine! I make sure I keep my pup on a specific time of eating and walking during the week so she does not get stressed out or worried. I have a large dog crate in my home that can be used. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do have a large field behind me that me and a pet can go and play in. My house already has one pup who gets along with any type of dog and is very passive. She is not a huge cat lover.

About: We had a golden retriever and he was a joy in our home. I'd like to have a dog, but our cat is to uncomfortable with dogs around. Being with your dog will get me that dog fix! I need to get back to walking every day, and walking a dog will help with this. We can exercise together. Getting them outside is key. I do not have a yard where I could keep a dog at my home. I am willing to come to your house so your dogs routine won't change.

About: I have my golden retriever that I keep energized daily and is very good with other dogs. I am a stay at home mom. I have been caring for dogs since I was young and have a large area for dogs to play in. I’m patient and loving with all sizes, shapes, and breeds. I have a 7 year old son and 5 year old daughter, and 1 year old that are used to dogs now and absolutely loves to play with them. I can always accommodate to any dog or cat. Old, young, energetic, aggressive, etc. I’m not a professional trainer but consider myself to train dogs very well. I have lots of time to give them attention and exercise! I’m excited to meet every single one! I live in a ground floor apartment. I have a part time job at the moment but looking to care for animals full time eventually! I absolutely love spending time with animals and would love to watch your friend! I give them lots of love and attention. We play fetch, go on walks, watch TV together, snuggle, play in the water during the summer.

“Emily did a fantastic job taking care of my two senior horses while I was out town. They required medication and special feed, and she handled it with ease. She was very professional and reliable, and the horses seemed well-cared-for and happy upon return. Thank you!”

“Rebeca is FABULOUS. I traveled to Mexico for spring break right as Covid was taking hold and she was extremely understanding when I almost got stuck there. She went above and beyond for my cat and my snake and made sure they were both happy and healthy in my absence. Highly recommended, friendly and flexible.”
