Cat Sitting in Paxson

“Ashley was so wonderful with our kitties! They can take some time to warm up to new people, but they trusted her within the first day! Her updates and photos made us feel less guilty for being away. Highly recommend!”

“Amanda was prompt and provided photos of my pup. It relieved a lot of anxiety knowing she was there with him to give him a break and cuddles:)”

“We had such a great experience with Sarah taking care of our dog, Duke! From the start, she was responsive, professional, and clearly very experienced with dogs. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Duke was in such good hands. She kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which we really appreciated, and it was clear Duke was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. When we got home, he was relaxed and his usual self, which says everything. We would absolutely book with Sarah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter. Thank you again for taking such great care of Duke!”

About: I started taking care of neighbors' and friends' dogs, cats, fish, hamsters and birds when I was 14 years old. I love animals and wildlife of all kinds. I have been a cat and dog mom for 28 years and have had 2 leash and dog-reactive dogs (strong, 60 pound+ mutt and pit bull) so I am experienced in dealing with these situations. I have strong situational awareness with my head on a swivel when walking dogs. My senior kitty required specialized medical care at the end of her life with daily prescription medication and subcutaneous fluids. I have volunteered as a dog walker and cat snuggler at Friends of Homeless Animals rescue. I have been a social worker for 30 years and am nearing retirement from full-time employment. I would love to use my love of animals to continue working as a pet-sitter and dog walker. I am very organized, detail-oriented and will care for your pet as I care for my own. I would love to meet you and your pets to see how I can be of service. I currently work full-time Monday through Friday but am retiring at the end of September. My weekends are currently free. I have some flexibility in my weekday schedule so I may be available on a case-by-case basis for weekday dog walks that are in western Loudoun County and within a 10 minute drive of my home. I will care for your pet in your home so that they will be the most comfortable. I am available for overnight stays to keep your pet company and to provide close supervision, lots of TLC, food, water, potty breaks and anything else you may need. I am a non-smoker and non-drinker. I am very detail-oriented, responsible and dependable. As a bit of an overprotective dog mom, I have needed to entrust my dog's care to a pet sitter. My dog is my world. So I know just how valuable trust, dependability and attention to detail are. What matters to you matters to me. I will follow your instructions down to the smallest detail. I will be diligent in communicating with you, sending regular updates and photos of your pet so that you know they are safe and happy in my care.

About: I have a deep passion for animals and a keen eye for understanding their non-verbal cues. By focusing on the small details and reading their body language, I ensure your pet feels comfortable, secure, and stress-free. Im a stay at home mom. I take my aon to school at 7:20, i would be available directly after that until 1:30 or 2 depending on where you live. Then Im available from 3-7. Every morning I feel my dogs and then walk them around our property. Then, I feed the kitty who is usually meowing loudly at me. Then, I scoop her box. She likes it if I scoop her box several times a day. The dogs are fed twice a day, and walked several times. My Dad or I will walk our younger dog Molly around the neighborhood or on the Appalachian trail. Dinner for the dogs is at 7pm and "last pee" is before bedtime (usually 10).

“Sarah could not be more amazing from start to finish! Her passion, care and consideration for animals truly shows. I appreciate the detailed updates, fast replies and constant communication and responsiveness. I would recommend Sarah for all your pet care needs!”

About: I've had dogs, cats, and a pig throughout my life. I currently am a momma to two German shepherds and a pig. I've taken care of puppies, seniors, and my little girl is special needs. I love interacting with animals of all ages, breed, and needs. I'm available from 9am to 7pm. I am currently a stay at home dog/ pig mom. I am available from 9 am to 7 pm and can take your pup for a walk, take to a dog park, or play in the yard. I would love to walk your pup, have a good play time, and make sure their bowl is full. I am able to follow all instructions given about your pup.

“I would highly recommend working with Margaret. She went above and beyond for our 2 cats while we were out of town. She was able to administer medication to our older cat and sent detailed daily updates with how they were doing. She so clearly cares about all animals and it shines through in her work. Leaving your pets for any amount of time is difficult, but in Margaret's care you can be confident they are well cared for.”

“As any viewer of Caroline W.'s reviews will see, I'm truly pleased to report she is as fantastic as they read. I could write paragraphs, but I'll highlight what really underscores her excellence. 1. Diligent and Prompt -- Caroline had reached out to me prior to our meet-and-greet and the final key pick-up and drop-offs to check-in and confirm times : this was prior to me doing so and reaching out to her. I had even expressed how this was really a pleasant surprise, and that it spoke volumes of her attention to detail; conversely, her promptness made *me feel like I was just the opposite and not paying close attention! That hasn't happened often in past experiences with many services, so Caroline really made sure we were aligned with appointments for key checkpoints in our set-up and return processes. In addition to her diligence, her promptness was actually mind-boggling. My wife and I were away on vacation, and it was no less than perfect clockwork where I'd see her check-ins literally *on the dot* for the times in the mornings and late afternoons for her visits, dead on the hour: we're not talking 2, 3, 4 minutes late, but perfection nearly every single time, with maybe one starting a *minute after the agreed time? It's ridiculous I'm even writing that last point, but to show how rigorous her punctuality is, it bears mention that Caroline was *this precise to showing up on time, every time, and 100% of the time gave her full allotted visit, with some an extra couple of minutes. Incredibly impressive. 2. Wonderful interactions with our cat -- we were able to see through our home's Ring system Caroline greeting our cat for every visit, especially as the days of our vacation wore on. The fact that Caroline would greet our cat with a clear and welcoming tone and message fit precisely how my wife and I interact with her (our cat), and just hearing the conversations between Caroline and our cat was very comforting: no doubt this "fitting into our patterns" helped with our cat's loneliness and coping with our absence, and that included spending focused time giving her simple company. Fantastic job! And lastly, 3. Being amenable to modifications and a couple of simple related tasks: Caroline was able to care for our "cat grass" and keep it thriving while we were gone, lavishing feedings to our cat when desired (most every visit); she also was able to follow our instructions by text message on how to use our "treat puzzle", since our cat was insistent on "playing it", and I know doing this gave a lot of comfort (and more treats) to our cat, and made my wife and I feel truly glad that Caroline was able to add this adjustment and make our cat feel like things were still as normal as they could be in our absence. With that, I give Caroline my highest recommendation, and can't express enough the value in having her as a drop-in sitter for our cat.”

About: With a vet-tech mom, I grew up surrounded by animals of every kind. From a young age I learned the real responsibilities of caring for pets, helping her rescue and rehabilitate dogs and cats, assisting with grooming, daily care, and even giving medications when needed. Animals have always been a part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally — it’s truly what I love to do Pet care is a normal part of my everyday routine because I have pets of my own, so things like feeding, walking, grooming, and giving extra attention are already built into my day. I also live very close to town, which makes it easy for me to pop over for walks, check-ins, or last-minute visits. With a flexible work schedule, I’m able to accommodate a variety of needs and make sure pets get consistent, reliable care whenever it’s needed. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and secure. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—whether that’s feeding, walking, playtime, administering medication, or sticking to specific training habits. I always make sure their space stays clean, they get plenty of attention, and their needs are met exactly as instructed.

“Kate was amazing! We were able to relax while we were gone knowing our cats were in great hands. :)”

About: I’ve watched lizards, birds, dogs, and many other kinds of pets for family friends over the years. I also have two very sweet cats and have had cats my whole life. I’m looking for part time jobs and anything one off. Looking to help out where I can as I am a full time student. Happy to take dogs on walks and get to know your pets! I have a few rooms in my place so I can keep my cats separate if needed. I am also happy to accommodate any requests as negotiated prior to drop off!

“We were able to relax while we were on vacation, knowing Alexandra was checking in on our “kids” each day. She was perfect and so sweet! They love her maybe more than us now ?”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 10 years old and have years of hands on experience caring for animals. I currently work at a kennel where I care for all kinds of dogs, with specialized experience in administering medication, cleaning and bathing, and safe, confident handling. In addition to dogs and cats, I also have experience caring for exotic pets, including birds and reptiles. I’m a senior in high school and work a part time job, so my availability is mostly in the afternoons and evenings. I’m available after 3 PM on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines as closely as possible to keep pets comfortable and stress free. I make sure all feeding, walks, playtime, and litter box or cleanup needs are handled carefully, and I closely monitor pets for any changes in behavior or health. I also administer medications when needed and keep the home clean and secure, providing updates and photos so owners feel confident while they’re away.
