Cat Sitting Stratford

About: I've been working in the veterinary field for almost 6 years and have had pets all my life. I am competent and confident in animal behavior and experience in handling. Additionally I can administer medications and take on care of senior pets. I currently work full-time at a veterinary clinic. If your pet is crate trained and is okay through the day when you're away I can accommodate a stay during the week. Otherwise, ideal days to board with me would be Saturday - Sunday. I can accommodate more frequent potty breaks and playtime these days. I have a fenced in yard and keep two kennels in my house to accommodate one small/medium and one medium/large dog. I prefer to only watch one additional dog at a time, but can be accommodating if you provide an extra kennel. I require proof of up-to-date vaccination for Rabies, distemper combination (Dalpp), and bordetella. Proof of a negative fecal is required. Flea/tick treatment is recommended, as any pets found with fleas will be treated at owners expense or requested to end their stay early. Your pet will be required to have an at home visit with me prior to first stay. I have one dog and three cats and it's required that your pet is animal friendly.

“She took such great care of all of our dogs and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. One of our dogs can be reactive around new people, and she handled everything so patiently, calmly, and professionally. She took the time to build trust and made our dog feel comfortable, which meant so much to us.”

“Emily was amazing! So friendly and our cats all LOVED her, which is crazy because normally they aren’t all keen on new people. She was prompt and updated us immediately with several pictures and how they were doing. Thanks, Emily!”

About: I am a veterinary technician student at Northcentral Technical College, looking to gain as much experience with fur babies as I can. I have trained and taken care of my own dogs since I was 11. I have taken care of family dogs for just as long as well. Being in school for my major I deal with dogs and cats daily with all kind of attitudes and sizes. I am currently at home full-time so I will be able to care for and play with your fur babies five days a week for most of the day. I have my own friendly pup who loves to play if he ever meets your fur baby. I can also crate your fur baby if you want me to when I leave!

About: Growing up I had the opportunity to baby sit my neighbors many pets including dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, tortoises, birds, and more! I've also baby sat for relatives dogs. I recently lost my beloved senior dog, but would love to be able to put that love I once gave him into caring for your pets. I'm a registered nurse and typically work 3 12 hour shifts a week. On my days off I am available for walks or home drop ins! Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or interests! I have experience walking and homing my families dogs, and administering oral medications.

About: I love walking and playing with your dog. I will give your four legged family members love and attention while you are away! I have been dog walking and sitting for 10+ years and love seeing the happy smiles and wagging tails when I come to see them. I also have experience with giving medication and baths. I enjoy playing and getting the dogs moving to make sure they work off some of their energy. I also enjoy just sitting with them and giving them some cuddles and let them snuggle up with me for some loving head scratches. Whether its just a walk during the day or an extended stay while you are away, I will make sure your dogs will have fun and be loved.

About: I grew up surrounded by pets; my family had 2 small dogs and several cats, my grandparents all had medium dogs, my best friend's all had various sized dogs and cats. Once I moved out during college, I began researching husbandry for lizards and small pets (specifically hamsters, ferrets, and small birds) and eventually got a few cats of my own. During my college years, I worked at a pet store and helped families find the right pet for their household and make sure they had the information needed to best care for their pet. Today, I am the parent of 2 cats, 3 ferrets, and several reptiles. I help care for, house sit, and train my friend's dogs as well. In the past few summers I was also hired as a dog walker by several friends to help get their large breed puppy outside to burn off some energy while they were away at work. These walks were also the perfect time for us to practice skills that they were working on in training. I am a lover of all animals, big and small. I love getting to know different pets and all their quirks and I hope your pet will love getting to know me! I work from home during the school year with summers off which gives me flexibility to work from anywhere and make potty breaks (or play breaks) throughout the day. I often have events that I attend on the weekends but am usually done by 5PM when I have those events. For senior dogs that need help getting to their favorite spot on the couch, I am able to lift up to 50lbs. I am able to handle dogs up to 80lbs on walks (maybe more, but so far, I have only had experience walking dogs up to 80lbs).

About: I have been working with animals since I was young. I currently have 7 dogs. I groom and work with many breeds. I am trusted with dogs and cats everyday for grooming now I would love to add in walking and pet sitting. I currently work part time which leaves me the flexibility in the afternoon and evenings to walk and care for other pets. I am also available for pet sitting on most weekends and after 2 pm the week days! I have dog friendly pups that come with me to keep other pups entertained while in your home. They can be kenneled as well if needed.

“Excellent communication, Emily did an amazing job looking after my senior cat while I was away. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing sitter.”

About: Your pets needs and comfort are top priority! I am a huge animal lover and have owned animals of all different breeds my entire life. I currently own 2 bearded dragons, rabbit, Chinchilla, 3 cats, a husky and fish. I grew up helping out on my grandpa's beef farm and then milking cows at my neighbors. I have also done pet sitting for friends and family. I have worked at a petstore and helped out at a Vet clinic. I am always asked by friends and family to watch their animals, which I love. When sitting for someone else I treat their animals just like my own and give them tons of love and attention, I also enjoy taking pics or videos to share with the owners and keep them up to date on what is going on.

About: I started my dog watching journey when I was about 16. I used to watch a friend's dogs whenever she was away. Even when she was at work when her older dog was ill. I have a kinship with dogs like no other. It's only in the last 5 years that I've developed that with cats as well. I have a flexible work schedule that can accommodate any needs you have. I will update my calendar as to my availability at least every 2 weeks. I can accommodate 1 or 2 dogs only on the weekends. But, in your home I will respect everything. I won't mess anything up and if I do I'll return it better than I left it.

“Becky does a wonderful job. She let our dogs out mid day for an entire week. The dogs had a blast and we feel relieved to have had her service. It took a load off our shoulders and will definitely use her again.”

About: I had a huskey when I was younger that I took care of everyday. I now have a 1 year old Aussie doodle. I am trained in emergency situations. My current job allows me plenty of time off to play and love your animals. I’m available almost everyday in someway. I have plenty of time and availability to walk and feed and play with your pet. I have an underground fence for my own dog. He is super friendly and loves to play. I live close to the dog park for plenty of fun and exercise. I have multiple crates to use as needed.

About: I've grown up with every kind of pet imaginable, and post-college I have owned my 2 dogs (Bella & Wes), cat (Binx), and house trained rabbit (Norbert). My animals are considered geriatric, so I am well versed in caring for pets with medication needs and requiring some extra love, patience, and attention. I regularly care for the pets of family and friends when they go out of town; including feeding, med administration, bathing & brushing, walking & exercise. I am a healthcare professional with a flexible schedule, so have a wide range of availability. I can stop by to care for your pet as you and your pet require. For housesitting, I am available all day, overnight, and/or for drop-ins. If the midday hours you want a pet walk or drop-ins don't show as available just message me and I might be able to accommodate. I am super flexible and would work with you to discuss a care plan specific to your pet's needs and your requirements. You just let me know how I can help!

About: Hello there! My name is Cassie! I can't wait to meet, care for, and love your fur baby like my own! I have been sitting/taking care of animals ever sense I can remember. Anything your pet needs I can provide. I'm currently working from home. And I'm pretty much home all the time. So I would have plenty of time to play with your pet/pets and keep them entertained and happy. I live in a good size home with a large yard. Which offers a lot of room for your pet or pets to run around and get all of their energy out.

About: I have taken in many animals of all kinds throughout the years , Persistent and accountable caretaker. It is important to me to make a difference to all walks of life. Currently I am staying home with my young children, I am available most days of the week! And am flexible to you and your pets wishes. I have a few aquarium animals, no dogs or cats, but I also care for some of the animals next door quite often. We have small children if your pet is tolerable of them and crating is optional per your request.

About: I’ve mainly taken care of friends and family pets since i was around 15(28 now). I am capable of feeding, bathing, short walks, supervision while outside and in. I can make time as needed. I work part time as a caregiver and am a full time student online. Because i only work part time I have quite a bit of free time during the week I do not offer out of home care as I have two cats that are my limit due to apartment rules. When in someone else’s home I respect obvious and stated boundaries and can also provide light cleaning if necessary!

“Nicole did a great job with drop in visits for my cat Nacho. She sent lots of pictures of them playing and snuggling. I could tell Nacho was enjoying her company! I will definitely use her again!”
