Cat Sitting in Pumpkintown

“Amber is the absolute best! My 17 year old Bella adores her and I know she’s in great hands!”

About: I am need of full time employment and have been pet sitting for friends and family for over ten years now. I absolutely love dogs and spending time with them because their love is unconditional. I grew up helping take care of my family's dog for about fourteen years and then helped raise a puppy who is turning ten in October. I enjoy being around dogs and playing with them so I feel like this is going to be the right gig for me. I am very positive and outgoing and love spending time outside. I'm currently unemployed and hoping to pick up as many gigs as I can to get a new routine started as I settled in a new location. I adjust based on the animal's needs. Some dogs I've watched have been incredibly more active and needing of attention than others, as well as cats. It's all about hearing what the owner needs for their pets while they're away to ease any anxiety they have of leaving them.

“Jana was amazing with our babies!! They loved her!! Highly recommend for your sitting needs!!”

“Courtney is always outstanding and so thoughtful! I always enjoy her little notes and gifts and leaves me feeling peace of mind for my fur babies when I'm gone! Thanks Courtney for always providing a 5 star experience!”

“Grey did a great job keeping an eye on my pup during an extended trip, coming by multiple times a day while I was traveling for work. Walks, hang out time, feedings, everything went smoothly. My dog is bigger and can be obnoxious on walks some times, but he was able to handle it with no problems. Highly recommended.”

About: I’ve had a variety of pets my entire life including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hermit crabs, and more. Currently I have a beagle and a great dane that I love more than anything. I’ve taken care of brand new puppies and elderly dogs, as well as dogs with disabilities. (my beagle is blind) Looking forward to caring for your pets too! I’m working part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets while you are away! I can usually be with your pets around three times per day. I take care of pets in their own homes, where they’re most comfortable and relaxed. I follow the owner's instructions closely and stick to the pet’s usual routine to help them feel safe and at ease. I always make sure the environment is secure, keep an eye on them during walks and playtime, and treat both the pets and the home with care and respect.

“Allison took great care of our 2 cats while we were away! She’s also very kind and caring. We really appreciate being able to relax vacation knowing they were in good hands.”

About: I have worked with dogs almost my whole life, I have experience with all ages and sizes! I treat every dog as if they were my own, with love and care! I assure you your dog will never be unhappy and will be taken care of from the moment you leave to the moment you get home! I am a student so I would tend to your dog in the morning and hang out with them in the evening and tuck them into bed. On weekends they will have my full attention if needed! During the summer I am flexible and will spend anytime you need me to with your pup! In the clients home I will abide by and respect boundaries provided to keep pets safe and cared for at all times. Their home will be treated as my own.

“Kimberly is so good with Daisy! She also is very observant and goes beyond taking care of Daisy to take care of packages and anything extra that comes up.”

About: I have been around pets since I was 5 years old. It all started with a rabbit until we gained a cat and a dog. At one point in time, my house had 2 dogs and 11 cats (indoor/outdoor). I currently have 2 dogs and 1 cat (senior). Throughout the past 25 years, I have cared for all aged dogs and cats with various ailments and illnesses. I have provided medications, participated in obedience and behavior trainings, and own an abundance of toys and treats for dogs. I also own a harness, leash and catpack for our cat and am very familiar with both indoor and outdoor cats. Additionally, I have many cat toys ranging from cat scratch posts and shoe laces to electronic interactive toys and laser pointers, as well as catnip and treats. Most recently I lived and helped care for a 2-year-old rabbit, so I feel confident in my bunny skills again. Unfortunately, fish are not my forte and if anything more than feeding is required, I am probably not your gal. Currently, I work full time as a travel nurse which requires 3, 12-hour shifts a week, the other 4 days of the week I am free to love on and adventure with my pets and yours! Outside of work, I am what some would consider a gym rat and I love the outdoors. I get my two pups and cat out as much as possible, as long as the weather permits (they hate the rain). Otherwise, we are pretty consistent with playing and training inside the house. I am very flexible with scheduling around times that you may need and I have a car that provides reliable transportation. My husband works remotely with occasional odd-end jobs but when he's home, he is available to care for our fur babies so I can focus on yours! I have an open fully fenced in back yard, but just an 8-10 min drive from a park to walk and play. As previously mentioned, I have two dogs, one puppy-ish (18 mo) who would love to play with your dog, and an older dog who can be a bit grumpy but well-behaved when mom/dad are around (can also be separated in a separate area of the house if that is more comfortable for you), and a cat that stays primarily in his own area of the house. We have extra leashes, plenty of poop bags, lots of toys, and even more love for your furry friends.

“Marc was excellent in caring for our 2 dogs and 3 cats. Kept us updated and sent awesome pictures”

“Samantha went over and beyond. Even brought in my amazon packages. She was attentive to Belle Belle's needs and communicated well.”

About: I've had a pet of some sort my entire life whether it was dogs, cats, bunnies, lizards, hamsters or snakes! I love caring for animals of any kind. I currently have 3 fur babies, 2 dogs and a cat, and 9 featherrd ones, chickens! Sharing my love for pets by helping out while folks are away doesn't feel like a job to me but more of a fun opportunity to do something I love. I am currently working full time from home with a flexible schedule. I can take breaks for drop-ins and walks when it's convenient and if your fur baby is at my home I have a fenced back yard they can roam in anytime of day. I have a fenced space in the back yard with plenty of room for fetch and two friendly pooches to keep yours company! My husband and I work opposite shifts so someone is always home to give the fur babies love!

About: I’ve had pets my whole life and done pet sitting since I was about 12. My daughter and I love taking care of all kinds of animals. We would love a chance to take care of yours. I’m home most days. When I do work outside of the home, I may be gone 4 to 6 hours. I am able to bring your pet with me, or let them stay in the cage at home. I have a very friendly Aussie doodle who loves to play with other dogs. I do have a small fenced in area and a large wooded area and walking trails.

“Kyle was a sweet guy with a big heart and took good care of our fur babies.”

“Absolutely excellent!! Took great care of my cats and gave me daily updates with pictures of them. I was very worried about leaving them but they were in great hands! You have a repeat customer out of me!”

“Ambry went over the top to make my 10 year Old grey tabby to feel safe and loved while we were In Europe for two weeks. The longest I ever left her was a week in Atlanta with a pet sitter she knew for Almost 10 years. I hit the jackpot with Ambyr !”

About: When I was younger I used to care for all sorts of dogs! I am a huge animal lover and love animals of all kinds. I am very trustworthy and will take care of your dog child like it was my own. Several people from my previous restaurant job have asked me to watch their dogs occasionally and I have never had a bad comment from them. As a college grad student my schedule can be a little difficult and will more than likely change regularly due to my clinical rotation this semester. As long as we are both communicating regularly then we should be fine. My schedule is open any time day or night on the weekends. I live in an apartment at the top floor so if a dog was to come to my house they would stay with me and my dog loving roommate. I will take them downstairs for walks and to go potty whenever they needed. Other than they they are welcome to run around my apartment whenever they need. If I go to a clients house, I will respect their house and their house rules and take the dogs around their neighborhood for walks and potty breaks if there is no gated front or backyard. I am a trustworthy person and will definitely give your dog all the loving and respect it deserves while mom and dad are gone.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all kinds. I got my first dog at age four and have grown up with pointers, spaniels, labs, and mixed breeds. I’ve also worked at a doggy daycare and currently care for my sweet, playful cat who’s been with me since I was 15. Whether it’s cuddling on the couch, going on long walks, or playing tug-of-war, I love connecting with animals in ways that make them feel safe and happy. I have experience with both indoor pets and outdoor lifestyles, and I bring a calm, attentive presence to every animal I meet. I’m currently preparing for grad school, so I’m looking for flexible work doing what I love most—spending time with animals! I’m currently looking for online part time positions as I start applying for grad school. I am trying to be more flexible with my schedule so I can prioritize grad school in the future. With pet-sitting: I am really respectful in what your routine is with your pet and what your pet needs. I am highly communicative and will send plenty pictures of your pet! I also love taking dogs to park, the swamp rabbit, or hiking if you are open to that. :) With boarding: I can easily crate your dog if needed, and I live in a house with 5 acres of land (unfenced). My parents have two retired hunting dogs who are kenneled, and we walk each dog separately for safety and comfort. When boarding, your pet would stay inside with me. I prefer to walk dogs on a leash until trust is fully formed. I also won’t let your dog interact with my parents’ dogs just to avoid any problems there! If your dog is house-trained, I’m happy to let them roam freely indoors—though we do prefer to keep pets off couches and beds. At home, my cat typically roams freely, but I’m happy to keep her upstairs to ensure a calm, safe environment when other pets are visiting.

“Ariel watched my cat for 3 days. She did a fantastic job doing everything I asked & keeping me well informed of my cat's well-being. I will be using her pet sitting services again when needed.”
