One of our cats is extremelyyy shy and always hides from strangers but Keara was so patient and loving with him that by the second visit he was out and about and sharing snuggles ? We received so many cute photos and great consistent communication that made us feel so comfortable. Thank you, Keara!!! Jabba and Rey miss you ??”

“Amy took excellent care of our cat while we were away! We did an initial in person meet and greet beforehand and as soon as we met her, we knew we’d picked a reliable, trustworthy person to check in our cat. She was punctual each day to make sure he had his food bowl refilled, litter box scooped and send us detailed after visit reviews and photos. Having Amy caring for our cat allowed us to truly have a relaxing vacation with peace of mind knowing everything was okay at home. Would love to use her pet sitting services in the future.”

The entire time we were away, we felt very comfortable knowing that he was going to be checking on him everyday. We returned home to a very happy cat, and we are so grateful. We will be looking forward to having him drop in and check on Arthur again! Thanks so much, Jake! :)”
“Our cat is 12 years old and he is a messy grumpy old man. I left 2 litter boxes in the basement, just in case. Edward did a great job cleaning both litter boxes and kept the cat's food water bowls fresh and full.”
About: I grew up on a farm, allowing me to work with animals of all types. I spent 4 years working off and on at my local animal shelter. I took dogs on daily walks and fed and cleaned cages. I also worked 3 summers as a veterinarian assistant. I assisted with surgeries and gave daily medications to animals of all types including cats, dogs, and farm animals. I also have experience with training using positive reinforcement, specifically with dogs but have been becoming well versed with cats, as well. I am a full-time student, but I only have classes four days a week, which leaves me with a flexible schedule and plenty of availability during the rest of the week. I am also free most weekends, as I am currently focused on school and do not have other major obligations. This allows me to dedicate time and attention to the pets I care for. I keep a close eye on any pet that comes into my home or that I spend time with, always ensuring they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with patience, attention, and love. Both pets and their owners deserve kindness, respect, and reliable care, and that is exactly what I strive to provide.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats, including new born kittens since I was 12 years old. I am very responsible and a care taker by nature. I am a retired RN and life long -current pet owner. I have taken care of my own critically ill pets and an proficient giving medication by mouth or injection. I am retired and am available Monday through Friday. I would prefer 11-3 but can do some evening visits if needed on occasion for owners who need evening visits. I am a very honest, responsible, trustworthy, mature individual. I will treat your home as if it were my home. In my professional experience, I took care of newborns to critically ill seniors for 24 years.
About: I’ve grown up around cats as my family adopted 5 cats and have fostered many more throughout the years. I have experience with kittens, adult cats, single cats or many at once. I also have my own cat named Clover who is 5 years old. I’m currently working full time Monday through Friday until 4pm in the Reston area. I would be available after that time or any time over the weekends. I’m am willing to check in on your pet or stay longer if needed to provide care to your cat. I am able to feed, play, clean the litter and perform other tasks that may be needed to make sure your cat is comfortable while you are away.
