Cat Sitting in Saint Clair

“Amanda was amazing! She did drop by visits for my 2 cats, one of which is very shy and the other is sometimes finicky with anyone who isn’t me. She was very patient with both of them and sent status updates and pictures which had the perfect amount of detail to let me know how they were doing while on vacation. She was also very responsive to messages and I never felt like I was waiting on her reply. She was well informed on taking care of animals and shows a great passion for animals as well! On top of that she went above and beyond what I needed her to do and also washed their water fountain and food bowls which I never even mentioned because I didn’t need her to do that! All in all, my cats are happy and healthy and she saved me from a couple extra chores I would’ve had to do upon returning home!”

“She took great care of our little kitties. They felt comfortable around her right away & it was great to not have to worry about them while we were away!”

About: My friends tell me that I am an animal whisperer haha! I love the company of an animal and giving it all of my love! I used to have a dog of my own, we were best friends, but unfortunately he passed away a few years ago. I’m not at the best spot in my life to have my own pet again so I wanted to find a way to still love on animals and have their presence! I currently have a full time job in St. Louis. I am available to WFH if I need to watch your pet(s) during the week!! More than happy to do so :) We have a very large yard/field behind my home but it is not fenced. I will be sure to have your puppy on a leash if need be!!! We also live in a neighborhood, off of the main road in town. I am also available to watch them in STL as I have family that live there!

“Largo is always great -- and she had to deal with a crazy puppy this time. Thanks for taking such great care of the "kids" :-)”

“We can’t recommend Leigh enough! Our dogs and cats absolutely loved her. She has a natural talent for connecting to animals and make them feel safe and loved. Extremely kind and reliable. It’s such a relief to know our pets are in such caring hands. Wholeheartedly recommend her and already have her booked for the future!”

About: I’ve had my dog Teddy for three years, and my cat Squash for two. I love animals of all kinds and have been asked by family and friends since a young age to help them take care of animals. I’m gentle with touch but firm with my voice, love to train and spoil them, and adore going on walks. Your pets will be in good hands with me My schedule is really open right now, so I’m available for whatever your pet may need. I understand how important schedules can be, which is why I like being flexible. I’m very good at making sure that all the necessary tasks are met first when I get into the house, then if I’m allowed to, I usually try and spend a little time with that animal to gain their trust.

About: I have had 3 different types of dogs die from happiness and old age, so you know I know how to take care of them. I also love reptiles, from sulcata tortoises to leopard geckos. Your fur baby will be in very good hands with me. I am currently working part time before my wife has our baby. Before that moment I can devote some of my time to taking care of the many pets around here who need it. I never let the pets I am taking care of eat table food, I make sure they are getting enough attention and play. They will always have access to my backyard to stretch their legs and go potty.

About: I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I have experience with both playful puppies and older dogs who need a slower pace. I’m super reliable, great with routines, and always send pics so you know your pet is happy and safe! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! I have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give pets the time, attention, and play they need throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, feeding, or just hanging out, I love making it part of my day. In my home, pets get a comfy, safe space with lots of love, playtime, and chill time. I follow their routine and make sure they feel right at home. At a client’s house, I respect their space, keep things clean, and stick to whatever schedule or rules the pet is used to—walks, feedings, meds, whatever they need!

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I started caring for pets around age 6 and have continued ever since. I’ve worked in an animal shelter, giving me experience with a wide range of behaviors, personalities, and care needs. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for exotics such as reptiles, spiders, and birds. I treat every pet like my own and tailor my care to what makes them feel safest and happiest. Im currently available 5 days a week could do some check ins on weekends. Im unable to to boarding but can dog walk and check on pets. I am a single mother so I do have to make time for my daughter on top of loving many animals. Most days I am available after 8:30am to 2:30pm sometimes until 5pm. I have a fenced yard i would habe to do a meet and greet with the pets in my household and other pets from other homes first if I had them stay with me.

About: I got my first dog when I was three and have always had 5+ animals in the house. I am good with any breed of dog. I have some puppy training experience and I can also work with disability animals. I just need to know if they have medication and the time to take them or other accommodations that they might need. I’m not sure if people have reptiles that need sitting but I’m good with those too. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to play with puppies or any other animals. I have always had a soft spot for animals so I love spending time with them. I have a dog who gets taken potty every couple of hours and is fed every morning and every night. I also have a cat and two leopard geckos. My cat and dog are usually upstairs so I can keep the other animals downstairs if they’re not pet friendly. My geckos stay in my room.

About: I haven't had my own pets in a long time, but I've cared for over a dozen pets that I treated like my own despite belonging to others. I've introduced myself to and won over plenty of pets with my calm and collected approach. The majority of my pet care experience has been through visiting the homes of family friends to give their dogs bathroom breaks and be sure they have some company for a while as their owners are at work or on vacation. On multiple occasions, I've also stayed overnight for multiple days at a time. Because of this, I'm well equipped to meet your pets smoothly and cohabitate with them. I currently work remotely and have plans to attend college online, so I'll have more than enough time to visit at the very least. I can absolutely stay over, as I can simply work wherever I have my laptop if need be. Your pets will always be the first priority, of course. I do not have pets of my own at the moment, but I always treat other people's pets as if they were my own and with respect. If they want attention, they get it. If they want to be left alone, they will be left alone (within reason). Any instructions regarding feeding and medicine will be followed strictly.

About: Since I can remember, I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, fish (fresh water and salt water), birds, reptiles, rodents, etc. I even have some experience with farm animals! I own a pug, 3 cats and a fish tank. I love all my animals deeply. I’m very picky about who I let care for my babies, I assume the same for you. I will go above and beyond to ensure your baby is happy, healthy and safe! Currently, I work evenings Mon-Thur as a private music teacher. Usually, I’m there from 3-7pm. Also, my fiancé is also home during the time I’m not. So, if you book a boarding with me, your animals will be in good hands as he also has plenty of experience with animals, if not, more! When you book a boarding with me, I’m confident in saying that your pet is 100% safe with me. My animals are trained and well behaved. I will make sure they are introduced properly and not just thrown together! I will be sure to follow your instructions and ask as many questions as I need to ensure quality care. If any emergency arises, you will be the first I call. I prefer if you leave another emergency contact, or permission to bring your pet to the vet in case of an emergency. When you book a sitting with me in your home. I will only touch the things you allow me to touch/put in the instructions. I’ll clean up any messes that are made. You can trust that I will respect you and your home. No one will come with me to your home unless you authorize it! I will always be sure that you and your pets feel comfortable with me. I love open communication, so if something feels off to you or if you’d like me to do something different, please let me know!

“Katherine did a great job. Very professional and the cats liked her. Excellent communication complete with photos that eased my mind.”

I am a full time nurse so I only work three days a week, however I don’t have a regular schedule. Regardless, I have four days out of the week free and would love to fill that time caring for and loving your pet. I am trustworthy and can be relied on to care for your pet with safety in mind first, I will be consistent with your house rules for your pet and will treat them as my own.

“Nina is a literal angel on earth! Not only is she absolutely wonderful with our pets, but while we were away, a pipe burst in our house, and she took care of the entire mess. Nina is so kind, caring, and thoughtful. I recommend her to anyone a thousand times over!”

“Barbara did a great job taking care of my boys (cats) while I was away. She showed up as scheduled and took care of feeding and cleaning the litter boxes. I got photos each day which was fun to see and a video one day as well. Nice to know that they were well taken care of!!!”

About: I’ve grown up around big and small dogs all my life. I have also been dog sitting for family, friends, and neighbors and love to take my German shepherd on runs. I live at home right now and am taking one class online and work-part time so I will have lots of time to play with your pets and snuggle them. I make sure the animal will stay within boundaries if they have to stay in a fence and will make sure that they get all meds needed or food on time.

About: I have taken care of dogs for the past ten years. I extremely care about a dogs wellbeing and happyness. I have experience giving medications to dogs, as my own dog requries daily medication. I also have experience wiping out and flushing a dogs ears, as my dog needs daily ear wipes. I am also more than willing to bathe and brush their coats. I also have experience with older dogs and am more than willing to provide assistance. I am currently a full time student, with an on campus job. But I have built in a mid-day break, of whihc will allow me to stop by and say hi to your furry friend. Additionally, my classes do not start until 9-9:30 AM, which will allow me to stop by in the mornings, if desired. My work day/ classes end around 5 PM each day, which will allow me to have plenty of time in the evenings to spend with your pet. I also have every Friday off, which will allow me to spend time with your pet! When I visit a clients home, will always make sure that their pet has enough water, and food. I will also ensure that any doors or gates (that are specified) are closed or open for their convenience and safety. Additionally, if I notice that the pet has gotten sick or made a mess, I will always clean it up with pet safe cleaners. I will also investigate and try to find out what caused them to get sick or make a mess. I will also record it and notify their owner of the occurance.
