Cat Sitting Sturbridge

About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes. I often pet sit for puppies only a few months old, and cared for my senior girl as her mobility decreased. I have also taken care of dogs that followed strict diets and medication routines. Providing the care that your dog requires to keep them happy and healthy is my priority! Whether they prefer to take it easy and chill on the couch, or go on long walks and play fetch for hours, I will adapt and ensure your pup is happy. I am currently finishing up my master’s degree, and am doing my internship part time during the week. My schedule is flexible for the days that I provided availability, so I am happy to adapt to your needs! I am happy to follow the safety guidelines and routines that you have set for your pet. I have a fenced in yard at my home for my pets, and they roam in and out all day. However, I have also watched pets without a fenced in yard that needed to be leashed when they go outside so I am happy to adapt and supervise your dog just as you would! If you prefer to crate your dog when they are indoors, I will happily do so as well so as to not impact your pet’s sense of normalcy and the rules they need to follow. If you prefer your dog to be alone on walks, I’d be happy to walk them in places where there are few other people or dogs around so that they feel safe.

About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for them. I'm currently raising my sixth dog, and my home has always been filled with four-legged family members! I currently have three dogs of my own, each with their own unique personality, needs, and energy level. From large breeds to smaller companions, I understand that every dog requires a different approach. I'm comfortable with energetic dogs, puppies learning their routines, and dogs that need a little extra patience and reassurance. I believe in positive reinforcement, consistency, and treating every pet with the same love and attention I give my own. Whether your dog needs a walk, a potty break, playtime, or simply some companionship while you're away, I'll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I also believe communication is important. You can expect updates and photos so you know how your furry family member is doing! I currently work nights and am a proud parent in a family of five. With my schedule, I have the flexibility to dedicate my weekday mornings to caring for pets in my community. I'm currently available Monday through Wednesday, starting at 8:30 a.m. until approximately 11 a.m., for dog walking and drop-in visits. As a pet owner myself, caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday life. I'm excited to extend that same care and attention to other families while providing dependable service that fits their pets' routines! Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being will always be my top priorities. As a longtime pet owner, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members. When visiting your home, I'll respect your space, follow your instructions carefully, and do my best to maintain your pet's normal routine. Whether it's feeding, refreshing water, providing a potty break, playtime, or going for a walk, I'll make sure your pet receives patient and attentive care. During walks, I'll pay close attention to my surroundings, use secure leashes, and avoid situations that could put your pet at risk. I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities, and I'll always take the time to make sure they're comfortable. I'll also provide photos and updates during visits so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is being cared for!

“Abbi did such a great job caring for my cat Vari. She was flexible and understanding when the level of care and scheduling needs changed, and she followed all directions asked. I really appreciated her updates during the day and the cute pictures she was able to snag when Vari was willing to come out to visit her. She also managed some interesting scenarios with Vari managing to bring critters into the house from his fully caged-in catio, and that was quite an unusual situation for a pet sitter to handle! Thank you again Abbi! I would definitely recommend booking with her again.”

“I highly recommend Lila. She did an amazing job with my three cats. She is very diligent and honest. Gustav needs a pill and she was able to give him that. Betty is very timid but she went to Lila. Lila kept me updated with texts and photos everyday. She went above and beyond. I look forward to having Lila take care of my fur babies whenever I travel!”

About: Hi! I’m a caring and responsible pet lover with experience taking care of both cats and dogs. I’ve cared for pets in the past, so I understand how important it is to provide them with love, patience, attention, and a safe environment. I’m also a proud cat parent to my 6-year-old cat, which has given me years of experience understanding a cat’s needs, personality, and daily routine. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, feeding, providing companionship, or giving extra cuddles, I enjoy making pets feel comfortable, happy, and loved. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to make sure your furry family member receives the best possible care. I’ll treat your pets as if they were my own and keep you updated with messages and photos while you’re away. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and well-being are always my priority. I look forward to meeting you and your furry best friend! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely love spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved. I have experience caring for my family’s dog and my friends’ pets, along with being a proud cat parent to my 6-year-old cat. I’m familiar with daily feeding, playtime, walks, and giving pets the attention and affection they need. I enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m happy to follow their usual routines and treat every pet with the same love and care I give my own. 🐾❤️ I prefer pet sitting in your home because I believe pets feel most comfortable and secure in their own familiar environment. Staying in their own home allows them to maintain their routines and feel less stressed while you’re away. I respect each pet’s boundaries, pay attention to their body language, and let them approach me at their own pace. I believe animals deserve the same kindness, patience, and respect as humans. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, understood, and loved, just as I would want someone to care for my own 6-year-old cat. 🐾❤️

About: I've had dogs for much of my life and have experience caring for dogs both in my own home and in someone else's. I grew up with a dog, currently live with another dog, and have also provided pet-sitting for a coworker's two dogs. I once stayed at a coworker's home for an entire week to care for her two dogs while balancing full-time school and a part-time job. This experience gave me the opportunity to take responsibility for their daily routines and make sure they were well cared for while their owner was away. I'm comfortable with the everyday responsibilities of dog care, including feeding, providing fresh water, walks, playtime, and making sure dogs feel safe and comfortable. I understand that every dog has their own personality, energy level, and routine, and I believe in giving each dog the individual attention they deserve. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I would treat your dogs with the same kindness, patience, and affection that I give the pets in my own home. Whether your dog loves going for walks, playing, or simply having some company, I'm happy to make sure they feel loved and cared for while you're away! I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week, which allows me to accommodate different pet care needs and routines. I'm happy to work around your pet's usual feeding times, walks, playtime, and other daily activities. Whether you need occasional help, weekday visits, or more consistent care, I can be flexible and make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, love, and care while you're away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routines and provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. I follow the owner's instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special care requirements. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality, preferences, and needs so they feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, plenty of attention, and appropriate exercise and playtime. I also understand the importance of respecting my client's home. I make sure doors and gates are secure, keep the home tidy, and provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are in good hands. My goal is to make both pets and their owners feel comfortable and at ease.

“Sara has been diligent and loving caring for a two cats, one that required pretty professional support following spinal surgery when we had to be away. I have already booked her for more visits. She is a joy and the cats love her.”

About: I bring a naturally calm, grounded presence into every home I enter. Pets are incredibly intuitive, and I prioritize creating a peaceful, steady environment where they feel safe and secure. Whether your dog is anxious, high-energy, or just needs consistency, I focus on maintaining a structured routine with patience and gentle guidance. My goal is for your pet to feel relaxed and comfortable, and for you to have complete peace of mind knowing they’re in stable, attentive hands. I’m currently in school and have a lot of time in between classes! I have tons of times to take care of your best friends! When pets stay in my home, their comfort and safety are my top priorities. I provide a calm, structured environment with consistent routines to help them settle in smoothly. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time and supervised play, and I always monitor pets while outside. If your dog is crate-trained or prefers a crate for rest, I can easily accommodate that to maintain their normal routine. My goal is to create a peaceful, secure space where your pet feels at ease while you’re away.

“Emily was very nice. I would definitely hire her again.”

“Jeffrey took great care of my three dogs and kept me apprised of their feeding and activities throughout the weekend. I would highly recommend him.”

“Lily was extremely helpful when my previously booked sitter cancelled at the last minute. She was friendly and able to respect our home's dietary restrictions. She was a lifesaver! My senior car was cared for, and the house was in order upon our return. Lily provided occassional updates on how things were going and a few photos. She always responded quickly to messages despite a time difference. We'd be open to hiring Lily again.”

“Meaghon's drop-in with my dog went just fine- we look forward to another visit soon.”
