Top rated Planter cat sitters
“Kevin and his wife are fantastic! Both my dogs love them and behave better for them than for me 😂 I’ve found my perfect pet sitters. Highly recommend”
“Chayna was wonderful with our senior cat, Owen. He loved the extra cuddles and attention! We really appreciated the updates—receiving pictures and sweet texts about his time with Chayna gave us peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“Lauren was very responsive to messages, gave daily updates with pictures on her visits and my kitties seemed to love her! Will definitely be seeing if she's available the next time I need a pet sitter.”
“Leah and her partner were wonderful and gave me so much peace of mind while I was gone! I got thoughtful updates and plenty of adorable photos at every visit. My cats seemed happy and comfortable with them and I’ll be rebooking for future trips!”
“When I say that Caylei is amazing, I really mean that. My cat, Tim, has special needs and can be temperamental/ really grumpy, at times. He has been fired from several boarding facilities for his bad attitude. Well, Caylei was willing to take him on and not only that, her care and patience was rewarded with a super happy cat all week! I am truly so thankful to have found her. She sent me updates, photos, and videos while I was gone, which really helped ease my mind. We have a few other trips planned that I wasn't sure we would be able to take if Tim misbehaved for her, too, but everything went significantly better than I ever hoped. Caylei is smart, caring, knowledgeable, and very competent in pet care, even in special circumstances. I can't recommend her enough.”
About: There have been very few times in my life that I didn't have a pet! My husband and I currently have a small farm of 3 dogs, 1 turtle, 1 rabbit, chickens, pheasants, and pigeons! I have experience in hand feeding baby birds, cats, and dogs. I've also had or taken care of rodents and some reptiles. I love all ages of animals from puppies and kittens to senior pets. I know how difficult it can be to find someone responsible and trustworthy enough to take care of your animals, especially the more exotic type, and would love the opportunity to be included in your pets lives! I work from home and am able to set my own schedule. I have an SUV with plenty of room for larger animals, if transportation is needed. I have almost 2 acres of unfenced yard. My 3 dogs are on a wired pet containment system. I have a sunroom inside my home where I house inside pets, which can be a free roaming area for your pet or where we can place their kennel/crate. For client house visits, I will follow the instructions laid out by the client.
“Sophia was fantastic!! This was my first time using her, and she was so sweet, very punctual, and took great care of our cats. I will definitely be using her in the future, and am so happy to have found a trustworthy person to care for our pets!”
“My husband and I had used another pet sitter a month or so ago, and that person was unavailable. We reached out to Darlene sort of last minute and she was so wonderful!! She understood our needs so quickly and adapted so well! We have a 8 year old cat who can be grumpy (mostly with the kitten), and she was able to gain his trust in no time. She came twice a day for a week to check in on our fur babies, and brought in packages that arrived as well. Everything was so seamless and allowed us to enjoy our time away. Thank you!”
“Samantha was so amazing! She followed instructions and gave me multiple updates throughout the visits! Provided great pictures. Our cat loved her and made the daily visits great. Thank you so much!”
“Whitney has cared for our cat twice now. She always sent photos to make us feel at ease with leaving our cat and knowing she was being taken care of. She would spend time with her and play with her toys.”
“Kayla was wonderful! She took care of our Bella like she was her own and Bella loved her. We would’ve have kept her but Bella went to doggy daycare. We will definitely book her again!”
About: I grew up with all kinds of animals and took care of them when sick or when family or friends were away. I can continue training if needed. I love to take care of fur babies. I can confidently say when you get home your fur babies will be happy! I am a caregiver for the elderly with dementia my schedule varies but it is typically 12-5pm I can adapt to any set of rules you may have for your pets to help them be more comfortable and feel safe while in my care.
“She did absolutely fantastic with my girls. They typically don’t enjoy people outside my household but they quickly warmed up to her. Highly recommend :)”
“Stephanie was amazing with our kitty and helping us water our plants! We will definitely be using her again, the next time we go out of town, I highly recommend!”
About: With years of experience in varied pet care, I can provide general and specialized care. I've cared for both cats and dogs, including those with medical conditions-such as food sensitivies, diabetes, epilepsy, vision empairment, and mobility issues-making me qualified to care for pets with specialized food, medication, grooming, and enrichment needs. I work part-time in the evenings, with a very predictable schedule, so I'll be able to keep your fur-babies company in the morning or during your 9-5 work hours. As a pet sitter, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and familiar environment for your kitty or pup. I take time to read each animal’s body language carefully, so I can respond appropriately to their needs and respect their boundaries—whether that means giving a shy cat space or offering gentle reassurance to an excitable dog. I maintain consistency with the pet’s established routines, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any training cues you use with them. This ensures there's no disruption to their daily rhythm, reducing stress and anxiety. I also keep a close eye on each pet’s behavior, noting any changes that might indicate stress, discomfort, illness, or injury, and I will communicate any concerns to you immediately. My goal is to ensure your pets feel comfortable, cared for, and safe in their own home while you're away.
“Ava was a perfect fit for our babies (cats). She was reliable, compassionate & great at communicating / sent pics & went over & beyond with our special requests. She’s now our favorite & we will definitely be calling her again on our next trip away.”
About: I’ve volunteered at my local animal shelter for almost 2 years now. I have also been around animals my whole life. I’ve raised dogs, cats, and so many others. I’ve also house and cat sat for neighbors and friends. I will be moving away August 14th and won’t be able to take any bookings for this area anymore! I apologize for the inconvenience! I work part time, but have very flexible schedules. I would have most of my time to spend with your loved pets and can work around scheduling issues! My family has a little yorkie that loves all types of new friends and is very clingy. I take him on my runs and he loves it! I will always put the needs of your pet first and create a happy environment for them!
“I don't need pet sitters often, but i needed a sitter at the last minute for a drop in visit for my 3. I had booked Joyce once before, so i messaged Joyce and she accepted right away which was much appreciated. She told me she always waves hi to my babies when she drives by my house. That tells me how much she loves dogs. When I returned home later that day, I could tell my babies were content and happy. I'm moving out of state later this year, and hope I can find someone as dedicated and caring as Joyce R. I highly recommend her to take care of your furry family members.”
“Claire went above and beyond with her drop in duties! She was very sweet, easy to get ahold of and stay in contact with, and we felt comfortable leaving her the keys to our apartment. Our cat loved her and was able to warm up to her immediately! She took great care of our baby!”
