Cat Sitting Shellville Colony

“Gianna was an amazing sitter for our cat Eli while we took a short trip out of town. Always arrived promptly at the times to feed and take care of Eli and from the looks of the pictures, he got Cody with her very quickly!! We will definitely be using her services again.”

“Kelly did a amazing job! I felt very confident that my cats would be well cared for after meeting her, and it was very reassuring to get pictures everyday. She even made friends with my shy cat! I would absolutely have her care for my animals again.”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and years of hands-on experience. I have four dogs of my own, and have experience training numerous dogs with different personalities and needs. I'm comfortable working with young pets who need patience, consistency, and basic training, as well as older pets who may need a slower pace and extra attention. I treat every animal with the same patience, care, and respect that I give my own. Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday life. With four dogs of my own, my daily routine includes feeding, exercise, playtime, training, and plenty of attention. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, so adding another pet to my routine comes naturally. I’m dependable, attentive, and make sure each pet gets the individual care and companionship they need. I care for every pet based on their normal routine, personality, and their owner's instructions. In a client's home, I make sure they have fresh food and water, exercise or playtime, a clean and comfortable environment, and plenty of attention. I respect each pet's boundaries and their home while keeping safety a top priority. Whether it's a high-energy dog, a playful kitten, or a pet that needs extra patience, I treat them like they're one of my own.

“I came home to 4 well-fed and content cats. Gina kept everything clean and she was consistent in her visits. I appreciated the photo updates and her responsiveness to any messages I sent. I will definitely ask for Gina's help again when I need a cat-sitter!!”

“She's a wonderful sitter. Patient and affectionate with our pet(s). My only worry is that good reviews like this will mean she's too booked for a return sitting!”

“Alex went above and beyond in caring for our kitties! He played with our menace of a kitten to the point he was snuggling and sleepy (which is a large task) and had our incredibly timid cat eating consistently while we were gone. He sent thorough updates with adorable pictures and left our home in pristine condition. We couldn’t recommend Alex more for other pet owners and will be using his services in the future. He is communicative, thoughtful, follows directions explicitly, and we felt completely at ease with him caring for not only our cats but our home.”

“Katie is a wonderful find. She came to our home first to meet the guy, see the house, put up with my stories of his fabulousness. Then her evening and morning 1-hour visits were 1) absolutely on time as agreed, 2) featured many photos of his various activities, 3) the completed checklist of meals, litter box, etc. and 4) great info on his behavior, especially since this was the first time she cat-sat. That he hissed at her on first visit, was chill and lovey on his second (sounds like him). Katie has made it her business to know as much as she can about cat behavior (she is a cat owner), such as why female cats may like their rumps rubbed while my male cat might not. She is also just a lovely, attentive, curious person. So glad she's in the neighborhood.”

About: I love animals more than people! Been petsitting all my life. First to offer my friends and neighbors to be Auntie to their little muffins. I owned a petsitting and dog training business in Portland for many years... had to move and change jobs but I still love having as many furfriends as possible! I consider myself very intuitive and always respect a pets boundaries. Listening is key and watching for body language. I will take the very best care of your home and pet!! Just like they were my own. I work for myself and have a very flexible schedule. I can work around what works best for you. Great at time management and super reliable. I prefer sitting at my clients homes and have extensive experience with housesitting alone. I have managed luxury homes and can offer extra things like plant watering, mail pickup, coordinating with staff, etc.

“Sophia is a very caring and attentive pet sitter. She is a good communicator and sent me lots of adorable pictures of my fur babies while I was out of town. I knew my pets were in safe hands with her.”

About: I have over 16 years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog, which gave me a deep understanding of the daily responsibility, patience and attentiveness pets require. I’m comfortable managing feeding schedules, exercise needs and paying close attention to changes in behavior or health. In her senior years, I also gained experience administering medications and providing the extra care senior pups need to stay comfortable and supported. That experience taught me how important it is to be patient, observant and gentle with animals. I treat every pet with the same level of care and respect I would give my own, and I understand how important it is for owners to feel confident that their fur babies are safe, comfortable, and well looked after while they’re away. I keep a flexible daily schedule which allows me to plan pet visits throughout the day and adapt to different routines. I’m available for morning, midday and evening walks or drop-in visits depending on what works best for you and your pet. When caring for pets in their own home my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow the instructions you provide for feeding, walks, medications, playtime and any specific habits or preferences your pet has. During visits I make sure pets have fresh water, get the attention, love and exercise they need. I also take time to interact with them so they feel comfortable and not alone while you’re away. I understand that every pet and household is different, so I’m always happy to adapt to your family’s normal routine and any specific care instructions you’d like followed.

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with extensive experience volunteering for the Napa Humane Society, walking and pet-sitting dogs for neighbors, and caring for my own dog, a very energetic German Shepherd, my cat, and my corn snake. I've trained many dogs to learn basic commands and I love to go on long walks and hikes! Previous employers have referred to me as extremely responsible, polite, and detail-oriented. My last few jobs were as a restaurant server so I'm comfortable and experienced in cleaning up messes. My pets are a vital part of my family so I understand the importance of trusting someone with your animals! I have a reliable car with a seatbelt attachment for dogs that I've been driving for 5+ years and I'm a very safe driver. I can't wait to meet your pets! I'm currently taking a gap year from UCLA so I have an extremely flexible schedule! In general, I prefer to work during the later hours of the day. I've been told that I am excellent at following directions, so when in your home I will follow your wishes to a T! I'm very clean, organized, and respectful of other people's spaces.

About: I’ve always had dogs in my life, so I am very used to their behavior and I absolutely love being around them! I’ve dealt with senior dogs as well as puppies, so nothing will surprise me😂 I am currently a student, and I have many open hours that I am free to take care of your pet! I am free most nights to house sit as well. I have two dogs of my own and a cat so I am very used to having pets around!! If need be, I have experience putting pets into crates and administering medicine.

About: As Confucius said, "Choose a job you love, and you will never work a day in your life." I began pet sitting throughout high school and from there my passion for animals grew. I am currently employed as a veterinary assistant although my ultimate goal is to attend veterinary school one day! I love being able to help families and their fur-babies. I am comfortable with administering medications and injections (such as insulin). I have cared for medically complex senior furry friends. I am currently taking a leave of absence from work and therefore have more free time available to pet sit! Pet sitting for family, friends, and pre-existing clients is currently my full time job until I return to my vet assistant role 😊 When caring for pets in their own homes, I like to keep things very neat and organized. I will typically wash bed sheets or at least remove bed sheets if spending the night. I will also bring my own groceries and supplies with me so as to not disturb the home. I do my best to spend the majority of my day in the home with the pet providing company.

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover who believes pets are family. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family members while you're away. I've always had a special place in my heart for animals and love getting to know their individual personalities, quirks, and routines. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I'm happy to tailor my care to what makes them most comfortable. I'm responsible, attentive, communicative, and respectful of your home and your pet's needs. I know how reassuring a photo or quick update can be while you're away, and I'm always happy to provide them! My goal is simple: to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and cared for, and that you have complete peace of mind while they're with me. I can't wait to meet your furry family! I work full-time but have a fairly flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate pet care before and after work, as well as weekends. I'm naturally an early riser and love having a routine, so morning and evening visits fit easily into my day! I'm happy to coordinate visits around your cat's usual feeding schedule and individual needs. I understand how important consistency is for cats, especially when their favorite humans are away. Weekends typically offer me even more flexibility, and I'm always happy to communicate ahead of time to make sure we're a great fit for your pet's needs and schedule! As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I treat every home with the same respect I'd want someone to show mine, and every pet with the patience and affection they deserve. I'm especially mindful of keeping doors and windows secure, respecting boundaries, and watching for any changes in behavior or appetite. I understand that some cats need extra patience to feel comfortable with someone new, and I'm happy to let them set the pace! Communication is equally important to me. I'll always provide updates and photos so you can relax knowing your cat and home are in good hands. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your furry family member!

About: I am currently a medical student with a pretty flexible schedule and deep love for all animals. I have owned cats my entire life and a couple dogs. I care greatly for the happiness of pets. They deserve nothing but love and comfort in their caregiving. A bond between pet and owner is very special and I know how hard it is to have obligations that take you away from them for any amount of time. It’s important to me that your pet receives the comfort, affection, and mental stimulation they need while they are waiting for you to come home. I am a lover of all dogs, big dogs, little dogs, young and old. I am very excited to get to know your dog by walking them, feeding them, and stopping by to take care of your dog if you are out of town. Puppies are no problem. I may not have as much experience working with dogs but I have not met a dog that did not like me and I am very friendly and excited to spend more time around dogs. I won't let you down! I have a deep love for cats as well. They are simply such a gift. I have much more experience in caring for cats. I have school 4 days a week from 2-4 hours a day. I have plenty of free time for loving on your sweet pets. I am willing and able to come to your home where your pet is most comfortable! I also have the ability to host them at my apartment where we have nearby walking paths and a dog park!

“Melina was super responsive to messaging and most importantly took excellent care of my two cats, Inca and Maya.”

Since I am a very active person I find it quite lovely to have a reason to get up and out to enjoy the day. I have a fenced yard, and a very friendly female dog. Breakfast is at 9am, followed by walk and play time at 11am. Then some water, and rest. Dinner is at 5:30, followed by one more walk and/or play. I love a bed dog, but also respect kennel training, or if the owner prefers the dog sleep on their bed.
