Cat Sitting in River Road

“Erin immediately made my cats feel comfortable and cared for. She is AMAZING! For the first time sitting for my 2 cats, I thought it would take awhile for them to warm up. It was instant. She has a wonderful way, takes great photos of the drop-in visits. I knew I could relax on my trip; everything was perfectly taken care of. I HIGHLY recommend Erin!”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is how attentive and patient I am with animals. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level so they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I’m very reliable, detail-oriented, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m especially gentle with nervous or shy pets and make sure they get plenty of reassurance, exercise, and affection at their own pace. I’m comfortable following specific feeding schedules, administering basic care as instructed, and keeping owners updated with messages and photos so they have peace of mind. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, cared for, and loved in a calm, positive environment. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I attend college on Mondays and Wednesdays, am mostly home and available on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and available Fridays until the evening. I work short weekend shifts but remain flexible for pet care before and after work. I live in an apartment with two cats and maintain a calm, clean, and safe environment. I carefully follow feeding, exercise, and medication instructions, give pets plenty of attention, and adjust care based on their comfort level. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their routines, keep spaces tidy, and provide updates so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for.

“Jennifer was awesome with my cat, Fawkes!! Very attentive and communicative. Was great getting updates every day showing me he was doing well. I’d definitely book her again! :)”

“Karina is such a gem! She was very thorough with the care and made sure to know the in’s and out’s of our pet’s routine beforehand. Our socially anxious cat warmed up to her within the hour! Karina was very caring throughout the visit, and sent us lots of updates! We’re planning on rebooking for every trip we take!”

About: ​Hello, my name is Allison. What sets me apart from the average sitter is my experience with complex behavioral needs and high-energy working breeds. If your dog requires a confident handler who truly understands canine psychology, you’ve found the right match. ​My Specialized Experience Includes: ​Behavioral Needs: Proficient in managing food reactivity, dog reactivity, and resource guarding. Variable Energy levels: Extensive experience with high-energy Shepherds, Bully breeds, and working dogs. I've worked with happy go lucky retrievers, lazy couch potatoes and dogs who need a little extra motivation. ​Training Tools: Skilled in using various leads and training tools, backed by hands-on work alongside a professional trainer. ​Body Language: I read dog body language fluently, allowing me to advocate for your pup and prevent stressful situations before they happen. ​Proven Success: I own two dogs who had to be integrated from scratch. One arrived severely dog-reactive, but through structured rehabilitation and patience, he is now a peaceful, thriving member of society, and the two get along beautifully. ​Whether your dog needs a structured walk on a specific training tool or just a handler who stays calm when another dog walks by, I’ve got you covered. ​Let’s chat about your routine and how I can best support your dog 😁 Currently I wake up early, take care of my own pets, go to work, come home and care for them some more. Often I don't get much down time till a little later in the evening! Pets are my priority, because they didn't choose to be in my life, I chose to have them. And it's my responsibility to give them a vibrant, rich and full life. I am not afraid to utilize various techniques and tools needed to accomplish my tasks. If in a clients home, I can crate, or even engage in a little training to help the dog understand the expectations. Safety is always a priority and I will never contact your dog's body with my own unless it's for praise or positive attention. I will also only utilize tools that are approved by you! I know there are controversial ways to get things done. I will only operate within the confines of your comfortability.

About: Having a lifetime's worth of caring for my own pets gives me a wealth of experience and knowledge with critters of all shapes and sizes. Family, friends, and neighbors have entrusted me to feed, play with, and even just check in on their pets and homes since I was a child. When you can't be there, I am happy to make sure your buddy gets all the love, attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Rest assured that whether your pet is an old friend or a new addition, I will provide customized care - from snuggles to medication, walks to post-surgical care, and everything in between! I have a very flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to play with your pet(s)! My availability includes regularly scheduled visits and drop ins are welcome. I can also be available on short notice. I enjoy providing conscientious, customized, and individualized care. Please share with me any favorite games, treats, and rewards! Trust, safety, satisfaction, and attention to detail are my highest priorities.

“Bailey took excellent care of our cats- they were happy and healthy on our return. She is an excellent communicator and ensured that we received a daily update with photos. I recommend her without hesitation to anyone, and hope she’s available the next time we need a cat sitter!”

“Jillian did a fantastic job of taking care of our precious Gemma cat. My cat usually doesn't like other people but she warmed right up to Jillian and became friends instantly. Gemma was well loved and taken care of and I will be using Jillian's services again next time we leave town. Thanks again Jill! ❤️😽”

About: I have loved cats and dogs all my life, and have even made dog grooming my career. I have over 18 years of experience working with dogs, and caring for them outside of work. Pets are our best friends and family, and caring for them is a passion of mine. I am available seven days a week, typically, and work part time, currently. My availability is open in the later afternoons and evenings, with mornings available upon request. I have cared for my cat for over 13 years. I regularly care for my sister’s 2 dogs and cat when she is out of town. I care for my roommate’s cat and dog regularly and when she is away. Dog walking, pet feeding and loving- are regular activities for me.

About: At this point in my life, I have cared for almost any domestic, exotic or farm animal that one can run into! Time spent working with snakes and spiders in a reptile shop, working on farms with cattle, goats and chickens, and caring for everyones furry companions like cats, dogs and rodents in homes has left me feeling well prepared to handle whatever critters come our way. My remaining pet is Sharkbait, a 9 year old heeler mix, who has been the everywhere and everything dog with me for the last 8+ years. She has met all of the above animals in her time and is the ultimate friend to all. As a retired service animal, she is kind and intuitive while responding calmly to reactive animals she meets. This makes her the perfect travel companion and buddy for all your babies and she will always be with me on sitting and walking jobs as she and I like to stay very active, walking anywhere from 2-6 miles daily together. Lets chat about your animals specific needs and background! Being active is a huge part of my day and I love making sure your animals are included in that! Walks to the park and jogs around the block are my favorite way to keep your pets focus while expending that pent up energy. For homebody pets I love a good puzzle or snuffle toy to keep their minds working in their safe space. Meet and greets together as a family are priority so that when you're out of town or at work, your pet(s) can trust Sharkbait and I are there to support them. Any candid tips and tricks around behaviors or routines are welcomed.

“Julia did great and my dog Jake did great with them!! its not always easy to find people that arnt intimidated by a big dog but Julia did great!!”

“Tyler did an awesome job caring for my cat. He sent a couple pictures and a little blurb summarizing the visit every time and he was always quick to respond to any messages I sent. He also left a kind message on my whiteboard welcoming me back to my home which was lovely after a full day of travel! Thanks Tyler!”

Katharine T.

“Great job caring for my Nico! Gave him the potty break and energy release he needed during my long work days! Will be using in the future for sure! Thank you again for all your help, and being so helpful!”

“Elizabeth was fantastic! Communicated well and we felt comfortable leaving our cats with a sitter for the first time. Highly recommend her for any future pet care needs!”

About: I recently moved back in to the area from California. We are still getting our bearings off the city and finding new places to play and explore As a disabled veteran and single mom, i am home most of the time, outside of some time at the gym or taking my 3 year old to the park. She loves animals, is quite gentle, and is never just left with animals alone. She tends to be helpful in filling Lola's bowl with water and food and tossing a treat to show some love. If kids are not okay, I am child free Saturday through Sunday afternoons, for those times when you need to be doggy free. Fresh water is provided inside and out on the deck to bask, as well as a constant eye when not out for a walk. I tend to avoid dog parks with other people's pets under my watch, I'd prefer to maintain a safe and predictable environment.
