Cat Sitting Pickard

“Deanna was great, very accommodating with a short notice meet and greet, and took excellent care of the dogs. Loved getting pictures of them playing outside during the visit. Thank you!”

About: Since I was 14, I’ve been responsible for taking care of my own dogs and those of my neighbors, family, and friends. I come from a large dog family, from a Great Pyrenees to Labs and German Shepherds, but I’ve also been able to care for smaller dogs in my neighborhood. I’ve also cared for sensitive and reactive dogs who came from hard backgrounds, so I have experience taking it slow to build trust. I also care for cats as well, with experience from my own 13 year old orange cat and my mom’s two crazy kittens. Whether it’s taking them on walks, playing tug of war, giving them meds, or just keeping them company, I love any time I get to spend with fur babies. I’m preparing to leave for a scholarship in Poland at the end of September after graduating with my Master’s degree in May, so my schedule is incredibly flexible. I am free most days and times with the exception of a few days with prior commitments throughout the summer. I strive to provide the best care with the utmost respect for you and your fur baby’s home. If there’s anything I should know about your pet’s care preferences or any neighborhood/environmental concerns, please let me know so that I may keep your pet safe at all times. I have experience with fenced in yards and open areas, as well as plenty of experience with flight risk dogs (those German Shepherds love to run!) and returning them safely home. My goal is to keep your pet and place safe and clean until you return home.

About: I have had dogs of my own since I was born and pet sat since I was 15...but had experience with drop ins, housing, and walking dogs since I was 12! I love all animals, and currently have 3 dogs of my own since Small, medium, and large! I would love to love on your pets while you are away, so reach out if you need me for anything! I work as a nanny and have a very flexible schedule that allows me to take mostly all visits that are booked a week in advance, and I can work around later bookings! I have a fenced yard and 3 dogs at my house...a small, medium, and large, that LOVE to play. This is an option if you are comfortable with that or I am happy to do house visits or stay at the house!

About: I've care for almost every kind of pet and treat each as though they were my very own. I have a very special place in my heart for animals and truly believe they are some of the most intuitive beings, and should be treated with the upmost respect. When you book with me, breathe easy with the peace of mind that I will care for your pet attentively, and ensure they feel safe and peaceful while you are away! As a sitter I have experience administering medication, adhering to feeding schedules, keeping pet spaces clean, respecting their boundaries and giving affection. I am consistent and clear when it comes to communication about your pet's wellbeing and status updates! I look forward to learning how I can care for your animal and promote a peaceful environment while you are away :) My current availability is open though that is tentative depending on bookings. I'd love to fit time in my schedule to spend with your precious pets--whether that be house sitting with them or taking them on walks and giving them a snuggle while you're at work I treat both pets and the spaces they reside in with the upmost respect and care. Any instructions you have for either your precious pet or beautiful home we can discuss beforehand to ensure all parties are comfortable.

About: I’ve had dogs and other pets for as long as I can remember. When I was about 10, I became obsessed with reading about different dog breeds and their needs. My first job actually working with pets was a dog daycare. I loved building connections with the pups and their parents. At this job, I learned defensive handling skills (how to avoid or break up fights or attacks) and how to handle reactive, scared, and stubborn dogs. I work shorter hours on weekends so I’m able to make plenty of time for your baby, plus my wife is always home and will occasionally help care for your pet when I’m not around. I like to have group play or just time outside when it’s cool in the mornings and evenings. I have a fenced backyard that I check for holes daily and an open front yard (leashes at all times out front). I’m able to crate your dog at anytime they might need it and can even have them in a separate room if crates aren’t their thing. Another bonus is that my wife is home just about full time and is able to care for your pet when I’m not around. If I’m at your house, I will take your dog outside on a leash the first few times just to see how they are and to make sure they aren’t an escape artist once mom/dad is gone

“Kaylee did great with Izzy. She showed up when we asked and had her scheduled and sent pics to us. She had great communication. Def will rebook with her.”

About: I am kind, tidy, and endlessly patient with my furry clients. I’m Humane Society-trained in cat care, and I’ve spent years as the go-to pet sitter for neighbors’ and family members’ dogs. Whether it’s a shy rescue cat or an energetic pup, I bring the same mix of gentleness and reliability to every visit. I am very flexible; I can do all week. I can do both mornings and nights. I am available from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm, and those times work best for me. Your pet’s care is my top priority.

I’ll brush them when needed and give treats in the exact amounts you specify, always making sure they’re happy and comfortable. You’ll get plenty of photos and videos along the way so you can see how much fun they’re having! I also take great care of your home while you’re away. I make sure your pet leaves no mess behind, water indoor and outdoor plants as needed, and even help out with light housework like vacuuming and mopping. Your home will be just as clean — if not cleaner — than when you left it.

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats since I was a kid, and caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for a variety of breeds, temperaments, and routines — from energetic pups who love long walks to shy kitties who need a calm presence. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, cuddles, or medication schedules, I’ve got it covered. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets with someone who truly cares. My goal is always to make your pets feel safe, loved, and at home — and to give you peace of mind while you’re away. Let me know your pet’s unique needs and personality — I can’t wait to meet them!
