Cat Sitting Rutherfordton

About: I am Shaylei, I am 25years old, and I love working with animals. I have had many different types of animals like dogs and cats to take care of while I was growing up. I also work at the Noble Dog Lodge so I do have professional dog care experience as well. I like the cuddlers, playful, and lazy doggies. I can also teach your dog a few tricks if you’d like as well. I know how to teach sit, stay, shake, and a couple more! I’ve dealt with harder to work with dogs, and very laid back dogs. I’ve dealt with Chihuahuas and Dobermans so any size works for me. I've also worked with the hyper puppies and the senior dogs that just need patience. Your pet will be in good hands if you decide to choose me as your main provider for your pet care needs. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I do work fulltime at a dog boarding and daycare facility. On my days off, I don't mind continuing to provide excellent care for animals that need some extra love while their parents are away. Weather I stay the whole day or do a drop in visit, I always make sure to give each pet the same care and attention. I know your babies miss you and you miss them while you're away. I want them to feel good about me caring for them. So, weather we play fetch, cuddle, or go on a walk I will always treat your babies with the respect and happiness they deserve.

“Meredith is the best cat sitter EVER!!! our babies have never been so comfortable while we were away! we had daily updates, quick responses, and frequent contact every time we needed her. Highly recommend :)”

“Lindsy was amazing and we felt so comfortable leaving our cat in her care while we were out of town. Lindsy visited as scheduled and was very communicative, with lots of photos, video, and comments about our cat’s activities. We would definitely trust Lindsy again!”

About: I have a true love of every furry friend out there. I love large breeds as much as small, so I’m comfortable with any breed. I also love to walk and hike, so if your dog is high energy, I can match that! I currently work part time at an animal rescue with a flexible schedule, so I have lots of free time to spend with your pet. I have experience with dogs, cats, and many animals. If dog sitting, I am happy to come twice per day to feed, walk and love your pet. I understand how hard it is to leave them behind. I will happily text you photos and updates, as often as you would like!

“I needed a sitter last minute and was able to book Jennye. She kept me up to date on how my cats were doing and sent photos of them. She did a great job with both of my cats.”

About: Unless you are a pet parent, no one understands what it is like for you to open your eyes in the morning only to find another pair of eyes staring at you, and this huge tongue licking you in the face. Whether you have a cat, dog, bird, etc.., you only want the best for your pet as they are more than just pets, they are family. As pet parents know, each one has his/her own personality and charm. You must have empathy and a sense of humor to be around animals. I have been around animals my entire life (over 40 years). I grew up hanging around a grooming solon knowing how to treat animals. I was taught how to train, groom, and photograph dogs. Our pets can make you laugh when your sad, and wait for you to come home at night, and love you unconditionally. My past experiences include: • Working at PetSmart Hotel • Being PetSmart certified • Knowing dog first aid • Being a dog trainer • Being a dog photographer • A dog whisperer • Working with PAWS of Rutherford County and ASPCA • A portion of candles that I made do go to PAWS of Rutherford County. • Being able to give dogs medication. I will treat your fuzzy children like my own. If you want someone who will love your dog(s) or cats and be a great substitute pet parent, then look no further than me. Have a wonderful day with your fuzzy kids! I own my own business. I can fit pet care into my schedule. I am sure I can work with the client to come into an agreement. I would like to know is there a schedule the client has for their pet, especially for the bathroom. Some pets need to go out every so often. Are there any dangers or allergies the pets has, etc. These are the types of information I will be asking the pet parent to make sure their pet is safe.

“Victoria is the best sitter we’ve ever had, goes above and beyond to tend to our pets and always makes us feel well assured they are in great hands!”

About: I’ve been a dog owner for over a decade with a mix of different temperaments and personalities. I’ve also been dog and cat sitting for almost as long for friends and family. From little chihuahuas to Rottweilers, I’ve cared for many doggies. I’ve even helped train my mom’s three Belgian Malinois. Though I wouldn’t do it now with my toddler, I trained/rehabbed an abused Pitt bull seven years ago. She became the sweetest of all my dogs. My son, who is 16 months old and accompanying me, is very active, so we pretty much live outside (yes! Even when there is snow on the ground). We have a very flexible schedule except maybe when he goes to bed around 7:30/8pm Since people’s homes vary, I’m flexible with doing whatever it takes to keep your pet and others safe. Having no fence is not a problem as long as we have a leash :)

“Mason was great- highly recommend! She was so prompt in answering my request and all my messages. I felt very comfortable on my trip knowing Penny was in good hands. She arrived right on time for her visits, sent so many cute pics, and kept me updated on Penny the whole time. I will def be booking again next time I need a sitter and would recommend her to anyone in the area!”

“Trina takes the best care of my puppers when we are away. They always seem so happy to see her and we are ever so grateful for her help each time. She goes above and beyond to make sure their needs are met and they are looked after each visit! Thank you!!!! 😊”

About: I would love to be considered to watch your fur baby!! I love them like my own, and make sure to take care of them like my own :) I currently do photography for income, so I’m pretty much available whenever I do like to keep weekends open as much as possible, but during the day and maybe a few times during the week evenings, I am available!! I make sure to keep an eye out on your dog 24/7 to make sure they don’t get into something they’re not supposed to and to make sure that they are happy and active or taking a nap!

About: i’m 20 years old and very interactive when it comes to animals. i have been surrounded by animals of all sort my whole life. i have a 9 year Chihuahua and a 2 year old texas heeler of my own. also a 9 year old gelding(my profile picture) i’d like to say im good with high energy animals, shy, and nervous. my heeler is very nervous and can come across as aggressive but he’s never hurt anyone or any dogs. he’s more clingy but loves to ride around and help with outside chores. i’m using rover as a side job due to being in school for vet tech! i try my best to make as much time for any requests from clients in need! i grew up being the type of person to always volunteer at humane societies, helping strays, and taking in animals in need. i’ve owned rabbits, hamsters, lizards, fish, cats, and sugar gliders. i’m more than open minded no matter the size or breed and am always willing to learn about animals! please feel free to reach out with any questions or requests! thank you so much as of right now, i am taking classes at icc for vet tech and looking to make a little extra money so most days im available. i can always arrange my schedule to fit needs as much as possible. with my heeler, he goes a lot of places with me, especially the barn! he’s high energy so days were not at the barn, we’re outside playing with toys, going to tractor supply to take baths, picking out toys, or he has other furry friends at home to play with.

“Anne was amazing with our nervous 1 year old GSP puppy. She was patient and got him to relax and took him on a great walk! Thank you so much Anne!! ☺️ We will definitely have her look after him again in the future🩷”

“We've never needed a dog sitter and we're extremely nervous to do so. Isabelle was communicative, thorough, and most important of all we came home to happy and tired animals. Thank you!!!!!”

About: My name is jharasen or jp for short. I have been working with dogs and other pet for many years now at doggy daycares, pet sitting, vet clinics and at the shelter. I am available most days and time to care for your pet and try to make them feel as comfortable and excepted while they are with me. I am also working on getting my training business started here in Forset city and am currently an intern with a trainer in Mills river helping out with an agility class on Wednesday nights. having the knowledge and backing of the trainer I have been able to find creative ways to help with dogs who seemed stressed or needing more outlets when with me. I am super excited to start my journey out here in Forset city and cant wait to meet and help the community here. I hope to hear from you and your pup soon, and thank you for considering me to take care of your family pet. I have a fenced-in yard that the dogs can play in when I am home. They are also able to come in and hang out inside as well. I do keep all dogs separated when I am not home and/or able to watch them and at meal time just for safety reasons. Ibam a stay at home mom so my schedule is pretty open, besides for any appointments i might have to go. The only days i am consistently away from the house are Wednesdays from 10 to 3 and Thursdays from 11 to 6 when im at class. I have a fenced-in yard part of it is what i call my rainy day yard which is truf grass with a 3 ft fence around it ... I also have a 6ft fence around the while back yard for the dry days that make the play space much bigger ... but who wants to play in the rain anyways lol. I do slow introduction with ever new pup that comes in and go at their pace to make sure they feel as comfortable as possible while they are staying with me.

“The boys loved having Teegan over. She gave them extra snuggles and played all of the fetch when she came to check in on them.”

About: I have pet sat for many families in the past. I have about 3 regulars. I started pet sitting in my neighborhood about 2 and a half years ago and also got on another app and have had about 2 sittings from there. I have pet sat mostly dogs but also cats. I have done overnights, visits throughout the day, boarding in my home, walking, etc. I am also about to start including dog training! I also would love to add in hiking! I would even be up for doing day care in my home! I have also cared for senior dogs and have experience with giving medications. I have a German Shepherd so I love to get out and be active! I am currently working part time but am planning to go fully to pet sitting so I can help more pet owners out! I am not in school so I will be available the whole day to spend time with your pups. Your pup will be able to go outside when needed and get love 24/7. We have a fully fenced yard so lots of room for your pup to run! We also go on daily walks and sometimes enjoy going out hiking or to the park. I am very keen on crate training so your pup will need to be crated while unsupervised in my home. This is for mine and my dogs safety but also for your dogs safety! We keep our home very clean and dog/ puppy proof so no need to worry about your pup getting into anything! We also keep chew bones up and any high value items up. They get these high value items when they are individually in their crates or their own space! We have three dogs for your pup to play and socialize with always under supervision of me or the other person in my home.

About: My family started fostering animals when I was young. I now have pets of my own that I’ve been caring for about 10 years now! My specialties are long walks, park playtime, brushing, washing, nail clipping, administering meds, refreshing homes of household pet odors. Let me pamper your pets like my own family! I work part time & make my own schedule so I have lots of flexibility on weekdays. I’m a great choice for folks who work long hours during the week and have pets that need extra potty breaks or playtime throughout the day. I have two friendly dogs of my own & a cat. I live very close to a walking trail in town as well as a dog park. I stay stocked on treats and toys. I’m happy to accommodate you and your pets needs!
