Cat Sitting in Salina

About: I love animals, always have and always will! I have lots of knowledge when it comes to caring for dogs, and cats! I have experience with administering medication for cats and dogs. I am a teacher so my summer is complete open! Anytime you need or any day I can do it. My weekends are also free, so you tell me what you need, and I’ll make it work. I live in an apartment (with a cat) so boarding your fur baby will depend on how well your animals can tolerate cats. My cat is VERY friendly and loves company.

“I can't say enough positive things about Carolyn or her professional, but caring demeanor. My pup is truly a pup - very cautious and can be a handful. Carolyn's pet common sense made all the difference during their first visit. Hoping she will agree to return.”

About: I’ve been in love with dogs since I can remember, and my favorite type of work/volunteering has always involved them. When I was 15 I started dog sitting for my family friend, I watched and walked little Johnny twice a week for almost 2 years while his mom was out doing errands. After that, I started volunteering at the LoveJoy Foundation, an animal rescue in California. I walked dogs, cleaned crates, and even helped with vaccinations once a week at adoption events! My time at LoveJoy was one of the most rewarding experiences ever, and it taught me how to work with different types of dogs and different behaviors, including neurodivergent and disabled pups. I have a family dog of my own, sweet Montana, who will always be my best friend no matter how far apart we are. Montana is a bit older now, so we mostly enjoy hanging out on the couch together, but in his prior years I loved taking him on hikes, to the dog beach, and really anywhere that I went. I also have a crested gecko named Axel! I’m currently a junior at CU Boulder, so I do have school during the week but only for about 2-3 hours each day, most of the time I’m home to care for a pup! I absolutely love being outside here in Boulder, it’s too beautiful not to be, so walks and adventures are plentiful! I have a large house for your pup to roam around, but if it’s preferred that he stays in a crate during the day I can accommodate that too! My yard isn’t fenced, but we would have a lot of outside time at the park and on walks exploring all corners of Boulder. I do have experience dog sitting in client’s homes, I know that some dogs are probably more comfortable staying in their own home!

“Emma Jean was available short notice and was so amazing to my girl through the day while I was gone. Highly recommend, mine loves attention and has lots of energy and Emma took care of all of it!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have helped care for them from when they were puppies through adulthood. Over the years, I’ve helped with daily walks, feeding, playtime, training reinforcement, and making sure they get plenty of attention and exercise. I’ve also helped care for dogs belonging to family members, which has given me experience with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. Growing up with dogs has taught me how important patience, consistency, and understanding each dog’s unique personality is when caring for them. I’m currently a graduate student doing research, which gives me a fairly flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate walks throughout the week. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so fitting dog walks into my daily routine comes naturally. Whether your dog needs a quick walk, regular exercise, or some extra attention during the day, I’ll work to provide reliable and consistent care. When caring for pets, my priority is always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I understand every dog has different personalities, energy levels, and routines, so I try to adapt to what works best for them. Whether in your home or out on walks, I focus on keeping pets safe, giving them plenty of attention, and following any instructions or routines you provide to ensure consistency and trust.

“Falecia was great, responsive, and caring. Our cats were obviously well cared for and calmer than they have been when we got back then they have been before, highly recommend!”

About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life! I had three cats and a dog growing up, along with helping out with pets of my other family members. I did an unpaid internship at a veterinary hospital so I know how important it is to take good care of our animals! I’m currently in college classes for a few hours a day during weekdays, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! Now that it’s getting warmer outside, I’m excited to be able to do outdoor walks with your pups! My home is laid out so there is no danger of your pet getting into anything and I live in a good neighborhood for walking around!

“Caitlin was fantastic! She took great care of our two cats while we were away for a few days and made sure they were comfortable and happy the whole time. She was very communicative, sending updates and photos each day, and she followed all of our instructions perfectly. We felt totally at ease knowing our cats were in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I've also helped friends and family with pet sitting, walks, feeding, and daily care. Being around dogs has taught me how to understand their different personalities and needs, whether it's an energetic puppy that needs lots of attention or an older dog that requires extra patience and care. I treat every pet like they're my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I'm currently working a part time job around 8-16 hours a week and I am a full time student but my actual class time is about 2 hours on Tuesdays and thurdays. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make sure to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so their pets feel comfortable and stress free. I provide fresh food and water, take dogs on walks, give them plenty of lovin and playtime, and make sure they get any specific care requested by the owner. I also enjoy keeping the home clean and tidy, sending updates when requested. But my priority will always be the pet's safety, comfort, and well-being while their human is away.

About: I started dog sitting for my neighbors when I was 12. My family got 2 dogs when I entered high school and I was the main care giver. Now that I am living somewhere that does not allow dogs, I love the opportunity of getting to care for other dogs and treat them as my own family. I work from home 3 days a week (M, T, F) so your dogs will have full access to me those days! If your home has WiFi and your dogs need more consistent attention, I'm comfortable working from there as long as you are too. Overall, my job is pretty flexible and I am available for midday walks, etc. I treat all dogs as if they were my own. Having grown up with one dog who was NOT and one who WAS all cuddles 24/7, I totally understand when dogs need some time and space to get used to a new person. I will meet your dog wherever it is at with their personality and make sure we both feel safe in our environment and have a good time, whatever that means for your dog.

“Wenqi took great care of Kitty, provided very helpful updates and pictures, and even played with her for extended periods of time. Thanks for much for taking care of her!”

“Was available super last minute and was able to hang out with Dice and Teddy for a little!”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have six years of professional experience caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. Whether I’m helping a friend, family member, or client, I treat every pet with the same love and care I would give my own. I am certified in Dog and Cat First Aid through the American Red Cross. I have a flexible schedule and an active lifestyle, so pets in my care get plenty of attention and exercise throughout the day. I want your pet to feel comfortable, safe, and relaxed, so I’m always happy to follow their usual schedule to make their stay feel as close to home as possible. Your pet’s safety and happiness always come first. I have a fully fenced yard and live right by Chautauqua, so there's plenty of space to play and explore. While I adore hosting social dogs, my home is also a great environment for dogs who prefer to be the only pet in the home, since I accept only one client at a time. I'm happy to accommodate multiple dogs from the same household, though!

About: I have 2 dogs and have been taking care of them my whole life. I have also helped out family friends with their animals while on they are gone. I love animals and would love to help out with yours! I have a very flexible schedule and can be available at any point. I am available to stay the night to watch the animals or be there in the morning, afternoon, and evening to feed or walk them! I love to cuddle and play with the pups. I will make sure they have food and water at the needed times and give them a walk when they are antsy.

“Maja has come over to check on our dogs while we were at work a few times. One of our two is a high energy husky, and one is an older cattle dog mix. She seemed to be very sweet with both of them when we met her! She sent us picture updates during the visits, and made sure they had water, bathroom breaks, and some attention before she left. She seems very kind and trustworthy. We will be booking with her again in the future!”

“Joy was wonderful and did a great job of taking care of and making my cat happy! Thanks!”

About: I have always loved animals since a young age. I helped raise and train a service dog for Canine companions so I am used to being in the constant company of dogs. I take the animal human relationship in high regard and know how much our pets mean to us. I have owned cats and dogs and have loved them so much and know what it takes to build a meaningful relationship. Your pet means as much to me as they mean to you because I get it! I currently work a 8-5 job from Wednesday To Friday. I work close to home and am available to stop by if needed during working hours. My weekends are pretty much free and I will work with you and your schedule to make anything work! I have an unfenced yard that I am more than happy to walk with your pet around to do their business. I am also near a fenced area for fetch and around numerous paths for simple walks and or runs. I also would love to take a buddy on a hike so that’s also an option for exercise! We live with our cat who is very chill and okay with the other animals. I will allow for pets to be on furniture if wanted and sleep with me too! I am very flexible and open so please communicate with me and I can deliver!

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my entire life. Growing up on a farm taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand animals’ unique personalities and needs. Today, I’m the proud owner of two Golden Retrievers, so I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who need consistency and training reinforcement to senior dogs who require extra patience, attention, and specialized care. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’m committed to providing attentive, personalized care that helps them feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to provide consistent attention throughout the day. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to accommodate walks, potty breaks, play sessions, feedings, and check-ins that fit your pet’s normal routine. My flexibility also makes it easier to accommodate last-minute requests whenever my schedule allows. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions before care begins. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or my own, I provide a calm, attentive environment and make sure they receive plenty of exercise, affection, and supervision. I understand that every pet is different, so I follow owner instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, medications, walking routines, training commands, and household rules. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away.

“Jana is the absolute best! She took such good care of our cat. We appreciate how happy she kept him over the holidays - we could tell he felt safe and comfortable with her and that put us at ease leaving him for the first time ever. She sent wonderful photos every day that made our entire day whenever we got them. We are so grateful to Jana! ☺️”
