Cat Sitting Ruskin

“Linnea was great! We were gone for two weeks and I could always count on her being at our house at a specific time to look after our two cats. She took excellent care of them. I previously used another sitter from this site and when I would come home one of our cats (who is very loving but also extremely high strung) would be all wound up and "hyper". This time when we came home she was calm and relaxed and ready to snuggle. I will definitely be using Linnea again. She has become my number one choice.”

“Anne was amazing! Super friendly, great communication, and made my pet feel like an Instagram model 🤙 Alway let me know when she was coming and going and didn't cut visits short. My cat is not the most receptive but she seemed to really take a liking to Anne. Highly recommend and I would definitely book her again!”

“Fluffy was fantastic. She was reliable and punctual, and most importantly, Izzy liked her and trusted her to give her medication every day. We will definitely use her again.”

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my genuine love for animals and my commitment to treating every pet like they're part of my own family. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and other household pets of all ages, personalities, and activity levels. I understand that every pet has unique needs, whether it's an energetic puppy who needs extra exercise and training reinforcement, an anxious pet who needs patience and reassurance, or a senior companion who requires special care, medication reminders, and a slower pace. I'm comfortable following detailed feeding schedules, administering basic medications, maintaining exercise routines, and providing plenty of affection and attention. Reliability, communication, and safety are my top priorities. I provide regular updates, photos, and messages so pet parents can have peace of mind while they're away. My goal is to keep pets happy, comfortable, and stress-free in their familiar environment while ensuring their routines stay as consistent as possible. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and compassionate, creating a positive experience for both pets and their families.

About: I am a young college student who is dedicated and can keep up with any size dog. I love to go on all kinds of walks and play with dogs and cats I am currently a full time online college student but I am very flexible with walking hours and any other services you may need to book I am flexible with coming to a clients home and to whatever environment your dog would be comfortable with! Just let me know what’s needed

About: I grew up with dogs (German Shepard (Mix), Beagle, Golden Retriever, Min Pin, Havanese) since I was born and raised 3 of my own. I LOVE all animals as well as my family. If we board your dog(s) or we have them for day care, they need to be hypoallergenic. If I go to your house to walk or play with dogs/cats, they do not have to be hopoallergenic. Both my husband and daughter are allergic to ALL Cats and some Dogs. I introduced this love to my daughter 12 years ago when she was 9 (now she's 21) & together, we cared and continue to care for numerous pets in and around our neighborhood. She's in college now, but always enjoys a dog when she comes home for a weekend, holiday, or anytime. I appreciate you in advance for trusting me and my family to take care for your pet(s) whenever given the opportunity. I've personally never known what it's like to not take care for an animal but we did lost our Havanese in the summer of 2024. We will be getting another one, but have not done so yet, so they is currently no other pet at our house. And we have a lot of love to give to all pets. We'll do our best to treat them just like you would. Our goal is to make them feel just like they do at home. If that's the service you're wanting for your fur baby/babies - look no further! Book a meet and greet. Also feel free text me any questions as well. We take care of animals for family, friends, & around our neighborhood. My schedule is flexible & I'm available most mornings, afternoons, & early evenings. Our goal is to care for them just like you do, giving you the peace of mind knowing that they or them are in kind, loving, trustworthy, reliable hands. I have a fenced in backyard and care for any animal around the clock. When housing animals, I do ask that animals do not jump up on the furniture on their own free will. We have leather couches and prefer dogs that have their own dog beds but if needed, we can discuss this in person and do what we can to accommodate them. Our Pepper, had congestive heart failure and was on medication and a special diet, so giving medicines and specific dog food is not a problem. We usually walk dogs 3x a day (2x during extremely hot days), as weather permits. We live in a cul-de-sac, so for many it's just a nice walk around the block for 10-15 minutes. Your fur baby will get plenty of exercise and enjoy the outdoors as they are free to run and play in the fenced in backyard. Thanks again and hope to see you and your fur babies soon.

“Ethan did great stopping by and taking care of my pup. Will definitely recommend and use again!”

About: i’ve worked with cats and dogs professionally for two years now! administrating medication, doing basic training, and grooming, and taking care of their daily needs! i’ve worked at a doggy daycare, a dog sanctuary, and i’m currently groomer! i’ve interacted with thousands of dogs and so many different animals! I currently work Tuesday-Saturday at the cutest dog grooming place from 8-4! Getting to spend all my time with animals is the dream and I cannot wait to meet and get to know yours! I have my cats on a strict feeding schedule that way they can eat all their vitamins! cleaning their water fountains and litter boxes often is a must for me!

About: Right now I am a dog sitter and would love to keep expanding and meet more pets 🥰. I love animals and treat them as my own babies. I am reliable and like to get things done. 🤗 It will be on availability. Will be 100 percent if it’s a no then there really wasn’t a way for me to do it. Just communication with one another 🤗 I will be very considerate. Only do what they ask. If there’s like an accident clean it up. 🤗But I would be very loyal 🤗🥰

About: I’ve volunteered at rescues, worked for a guide dog school, grooming salons and pet food stores and learned a lot of tricks and wisdom in my 13 years of owning and working with animals. Rescuing cats and dogs has been part of my life since I was 12, I know how to care for them at any stage of their life! I can handle giving medication, topically or orally. I can trim nails and bathe as an extra service and brush out a coat if given the right tools and opportunity. Walking around the neighborhood is no problem for me and taking pictures to update you is my specialty! I currently work part time and work full shifts Monday and Tuesday until 7pm; Wednesday and Saturdays are partial and end by 3pm so afternoons with your pup or kitty should be fine with me :)! Thursdays and Friday are free for me and I should have ample time to check on your pets more than once! Leaving me with a list through text or paper to follow about your little ones feeding regimen and/or medication will allow me to double check that everything is done with you before I leave. I will want to stay with your pet for at least an hour or more and give them the enrichment and socialization they need and will update with pictures to make you feel included :). I will take them outside for a potty at least 2x (once at the beginning and once at the end) and a walk in between to ensure they have an ample chance to use the bathroom. I will check around the house where they have access to ensure they haven’t gotten into anything or made a mess and if they have I will report it promptly to you through text or call depending on the urgency to not leave you with any surprises! At the end of the visit I will take a picture or short video of the pet to give you the peace of mind that they are safe when I leave.

About: My name is Lauren, and I just recently graduated with my masters degree. I currently have two jobs, but I would love to make a little extra cash so that I can fulfill my dream of moving to Boston! Given my love for animals, I felt that pet sitting and dog walking would be a great additional source of income. I currently have one sweet baby named Darcy, who is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. I have been around both cats and dogs my entire life, as I grew up with them around the house. I have also done pet sitting for neighbors growing up, and I often watched my friends’ emotional support animals at college while they visited home. My current schedule is a bit random depending on the week, but I am always available in the evenings, 7 days a week. Some days I’ll only have one job rather than both, which gives me more availability (those days are usually Sat, Sun, or Mon). My yard is fenced and my dog gets along with others very well! I am also absolutely open to coming to your home to care for your pet if that is your preference.

About: I have had pets for as long as I can remember. Primarily we had dogs growing up but we also had cats, lizards, rabbits etc. currently I have 2 pups, 3 cats, a snake and 2 emu’s! Now I am no expert but I am quite experienced in handling animals and fortunately for me, my girlfriend is a former veterinary technician and currently teaches vet med at the southern Brandon technical college, so I’ll always have an expert on standby if anything were to ever occur. I also have several contacts at livewell animal hospital as well as beacon emergency pet hospital. As a veteran and former law enforcement officer I can also assure you I am great at handling tense or stressful situations and even better at handling unexpected emergencies I work full time as an overnight field supervisor for allied universal security services. At the moment I work Sunday through Thursday from 8PM to 4AM. I am available on these days between 1PM and 6PM. On Friday and Saturday I am available all day I pride myself on following client instructions to the letter. Everyone has their habits and routines that they’re comfortable with and I think it’s important for pets to be able to maintain that comfortable routine when their owner is away

“Rachael was wonderful with our 3 kitties while we were away for an entire week. She kept in contact with us and sent us pictures of each of them to let us know they were o.k. I felt very comfortable with Rachael and her family watching over our kitties. We would definitely book with her again!”

About: I’ve had a pet my whole life and they are always a big part of my family. My dog Cody was with us for almost 16 years. Losing him took a piece of my heart. 8 months later my husband and I adopted Scrappy and he is the best boy ever. He brings us laughter joy and so much love. I would love to take care of your furbabies. They will always be in good hands! That’s a promise. I currently work a full-time job with Friday being remote. I am available after work and also weekends for drop-in visits. I love being and dog mom and would love the opportunity to take care of your furbabies as well. I will be taking your dog for walks and they will enjoy playtime and lots of pets and snuggles. I will make sure they are fed and given any medicine if needed. You will receive lots of pics and videos to assure you that they are being well taken care of.

About: I have a dog of my own (toy poodle) and I’ve had a variety of dogs growing up. I’ve had an English bulldog, a Boston terrier, a Yorkiepoo, and a Rottweiler so I’m experienced with all types of dogs. I have been taking care of pets including kittens, cats, and dogs for the past 5 years. I’m currently working part time remotely as an attorney, so I’m usually home all day unless I have other prior commitments such as a piano lesson to teach. I make loads of time to play with my dog and my son, and take him for long walks and several potty breaks a day, so your pet will be getting the same care! I treat every animal who is in my care just as well as I treat my own baby, and I am very careful to follow clients’ instructions because I know how I would want my baby to be treated. I personally like the free roaming approach, because I am a guest in your pup’s home. But of course I will always respect the boundaries that you have set for them. If you let them on the furniture, they can come on up and cuddle with me! If you prefer them to be crated at night, I will respect your wishes. In the event that I do have to step out, know that I don’t like leaving my own dog home alone for more than 2-3 hours at a time so I take the same care with clients. Even if I have to go teach a piano lesson, I always make sure the dogs are fed and the dogs have gone for a potty break before I leave and I make sure I’m not gone too long!

About: I’ve been caring for pets since 2019 and gained professional experience working at a doggy daycare and boarding facility. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies, kittens, and older dogs. I’m comfortable with medications, special diets, and individual care needs. I’ve also raised my own pets, including my current puppy and cats. I’m patient, attentive, and especially comfortable with anxious pets. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. My schedule is fairly flexible, with school being my main set commitment. I’m available throughout the week for dog walks, drop-in visits, and check-ins, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine and needs. I’ll communicate with you about availability ahead of time and make sure your pet gets the consistent care, attention, and companionship they deserve. I prioritize safety, trust, and following each pet’s normal routine. For drop-ins and walks, I carefully follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, medications, exercise, and other needs. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure and will keep pets supervised throughout my visit. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so owners know their pets are safe and doing well.

“Dan was great - a good communicator, and took great care of our cat a Phoenix. He was attentive, sent photos, and followed instructions to keep ants out of our cats food. Highly recommend!”

“Jill was SUCH a wonderful cat sitter that my little gal is already meowing and asking if she can come back! From the start, Jill was communicative, professional, and always went out of her way to make sure I knew my fur ball (and two hamster companions) was in great hands with plenty of photos and updates from the day. I can’t recommend her enough and i’m crossing my fingers she’ll be around for our next out-of-town adventure!”

Morgan S.

“We CANNOT say enough good things about Maya!! Maya took great care of our pups + did me a huge favor and took out dinner from our freezer when I had forgot! 😂 We absolutely LOVE how many extra pictures she sends, and how she plays fetch with both our pups every time she comes over!! We will be recommending Maya to our friends & will be/already have booked her again!”

About: I've taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. As a little girl, I loved going to my mom's vet clinic and helping her care for the animals. We always had pets with a variety of special needs in our home! I always keep in contact with my mom when pet sitting, so a vet is always on call! I'm currently working part time and have a very flexible schedule! I live in St. Pete but work in Tampa, so I am able to help out pet parents all over the bay area! I live in a very walkable neighborhood and have access to a shared back yard for your pup to play in! I often schedule play dates with my neighbor's friendly dogs to keep your pet company if your pup likes to socialize! I have a cuddly cat in my home that gets along with other pets! I run and walk regularly, if your pup enjoys it I'll take them on my morning run and we'll be sure to go on lots of walks in our shady neighborhood!
