Cat Sitting in Saint Bernard

“Jessalyn is just the best. She’s consistant, she’s flexible, she’s kind and caring, and she absolutely goes above and beyond every time! I am and will continue to be a repeat customer for sure.”

Katherine K.

“I am so thankful for Nina's help while I was away for two long days in a row. The dogs were happier and more relaxed when I came home and seeing her reports took away all my guilt for leaving them for the day. It's obvious they had fun and felt loved. I will definitely seek her out again!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have been caring for pets since I was 11. I’ve pet sat for family, friends, and neighbors since I was 14. I have volunteered at the SPCA (animal shelter) since I was 16. I now lead my college dog walking/shelter volunteering club (STEP) as vice president, and truly love caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities! I’m a college student with a completely open and flexible schedule this summer! I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop ins, pet sitting, and can accept last minute bookings. Spending time with dogs is something I genuinely live for, so I love making pet care part of my daily routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities! I’m attentive and patient, while also extremely well versed with dogs of all different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I treat every dog like my own babies!

“Wolf took exceptional care of my two kitties and provided thorough updates that kept me at ease during my travels. I will definitely reach out again in the future!”

About: Early 40’s year old sitter/walker with car. You could say I have 40+ years of experience. My family had a German Shepherd from before I was born and I was very close to her. There has been a stream of pets in my family. Including so so so many cats in NYC. Even going so far as to “rescue” a half feral one. Currently, I share ownership of a dog. As a small business owner of over 10 years, I am able to have a flexible schedule and spend more time hanging out with your pet(s). That said, I have a lot of experience managing other people, and I do have high expectations for clear communication from clients. I have never had a complaint from clients that already have human children. I am very clear about the kind of care I offer. For example, I clearly state I can do 4-8 hrs for letting out. That does not mean that when I get to the sit, you tell me you expect every hour. I also do not cancel other bookings so that you can be the sole client. I have been through that, obliged, and the client was still dissatisfied. I am running a business and the new owner of this app runs on harsh algorithms that hide you in search. Let’s try to be better and more human, than conforming to private equity and their bottom line. For the fur babies, I can follow their diet and pet or play or brush their hair. As long as you give me a list or schedule, I'll do my best to provide it. I have extensive experience with pets at all stages of life. (As well as other kinds of pets which I am open to caring for.) I understand the care required for a wide variety of needs and can do my best to provide reinforcement on current training, but I am not going to be attuned right off the jump to the nuances noticed by your trainer or you... I can reinforce sit, lay down, paw, stay, heel, rollover, or anything else. I can administer medicine. I am not formally trained in pet CPR, but I am trained in human CPR and have looked at videos for pet CPR. When I was younger I worked as a lifeguard, and have a remarkable natural ability to stay calm and act fast in crisis situations. This comes in handy, for example: when protecting my maltipoo from other dogs, managing territorial behavior, or keeping one dog out of another dog’s bowl. My schedule is flexible and I have a car. I have a small business and partial responsibility of my dog, so I do need to be able to run errands, go to meetings, or check in at home to keep that part of my life running. For extended care, and distance further than 5 miles, I prefer be given the option to stay over at clients for the sake of gas costs, time, and energy. First meeting and approach are important to setting a precedent, I first see if the pet will approach me. I like to offer my hand palm down for them to smell. Sometimes it takes a few times smelling the hand before they feel comfortable letting me pet them. In my opinion it’s important not to mess up first impressions with the pet. Spending time together builds familiarity bonds, being attentive builds trust. It’s important to build rapport.

“Crystal was amazing with my cat! She was always on time, very respectful of my home by always taking off her shoes and my cat absolutely adored her. I really appreciated all of the pictures while I was away and I knew my fur baby was being well taken care of. Would happily have Crystal come again when I'm away in the future!”

Aliyah M.

“I was so worried about Simon but I came back from a 3week vacation and he was wonderful. I know this is because Alison took such good care of him. She was awesome. I would completely recommend her.”

Janet M.

“Olivia was great with our boys despite them being difficult and was understanding of our situation! We so appreciated her caring for our boys while we were out of the country even if they weren’t too willing to be cared for. She sent lots of pics which we loved, would highly recommend Olivia!”

Rosemary Reid & Ryan Taulbee

“Cecilia was great. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”

Matthew N.

“Tabby is absolutely wonderful. My pups and kitty had a lovely time with her. I could tell they were really comfortable while I was gone. She has watched them multiple times at this point and I will definitely be booking her for services again whenever I am headed out of town.”

Paige R.

“I’m very happy that I found Melissa! She was very gentle and kind with my beloved cat, she spent the entire time of her visit with him, sent me detailed update and cute pictures! Really appreciate her help and for sure will book her service again! Also very pleasant communication with her! Definitely can recommend Melissa!”

Darya U.

“Laura did a great job with our kitties! She even took the time to bring in boxes from our porch. We have an older cat with an unusual no-litter situation which she was very willing to work with. It helped make our vacation less stressful knowing our boys were in good hands!”

Vanessa K.

“Jay did a great job checking on and feeding our cats. He even got one of the shy ones to come out and visit him.”

Stephanie M.

“Jen looked after my orange boy while I was away. Despite how shy he is with strangers, she was able to coax him out and send me pictures on every visit. By the end, there were even pets and licky treats to be had. It made me glad to see my fuzzy fellow so well looked after while I was gone and enabled me to enjoy my time away without worry.”

Carol P.

“My cat loved Sandy! She gave him plenty of love and all of his medication while I was away. I would rebook Sandy in an instant. Highly recommend.”

Jordan E.

“Andrea has been so good to my mini dachshund. My dog is sometimes anxious, stubborn, and can lash out a bit if she is triggered. But Andrea has remained patient and given me frequent updates on her visits. She is great!!”

Elizabeth T.

“Every time I have Meranda watch my kitties she sends so many pictures which I love so much! She’s so careful and her attention to detail and updates are so appreciated when I’m away from my girls.”

About: I’ve provided care for pups in the Northside and the surrounding Cincinnati area for the past decade, and I’m excited to meet you and your pal! I’m adaptable, organized, and have a keen attention to detail which helps me individualize my care for each of my Rover clients. Currently pausing boarding services as I’m looking to establish new client relationships for summer of 2026. If you need a routine dog walker or daily check-ins for your pet, I’d love to connect! Growing up, the rescue my family adopted became my best friend! Since he was abandoned, it took years of dedication and persistence for him to grow comfortable with us and thrive. This experience has given me the patience to earn each animals trust on their terms and adjust my care based on their needs. I’m comfortable taking my time and communicating with you throughout the stay to ensure your loved one gets everything they need! I’m confident administering medication, following their routine, and finding new and fun ways to eat up their energy - all to be sure they’re squared away until your return ❤️ *Kindly review the rate of services quoted to you before confirming a booking and please reach out with any questions!* I accept a limited number of bookings each month to ensure quality of care! I work full-time, but can arrange full-time care depending on your family's needs. My partner Curt is also available to assist in potty breaks or additional walks throughout the day for boarding stays - two for the price of one! Care of your house and home is as important to me as the care of your loved ones. I thoroughly clean during and after each house stay. I'm glad to manage care of outdoor gardens and houseplants too! I always take note of special directions to maintain your space while you’re away - just say the word! It’s my hope that each and every one of my clients feels safe and sound leaving their family in my care. We ask that dog clients are fully crate trained and owners provide the crate for the duration of their stay for those interested in boarding services. Many thanks! *A note to cat owners booking boarding: if possible, please arrange to bring your cat’s litter box and a familiar item like their bed/toys during boarding to help them acclimate to our space!*

“Katrina took excellent care of our kitty boy while we were out of town!! She was kind and communicative and took her time playing with him and caring for him. We couldn’t be happier with her service!”
