Cat Sitting Timbuctoo

“Carrington was absolutely fantastic with our two babies. She gained our cat’s love easily which is a feat because he never comes out from the bed room when strangers are over! She also took special care of our lonely golden, and made him feel extra loved while we were gone. Her updates were phenomenal as well! It really helped put me at ease with leaving my fur babies. We have another trip coming up at the end of the year and I know our babies are hoping Carrington can watch them again! ♥️”

About: I am a huge animal lover with a lifelong passion for pet care. Growing up surrounded by animals, I learned early on how to provide attentive, loving, and reliable care. Whether it's an energetic kitten or a senior dog who needs a gentle touch, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Animals I have experience with: Cats & Dogs: All life stages, from playful kittens/puppies to sweet seniors. I have an incredibly flexible schedule right now, which means I have plenty of open time to dedicate entirely to your pets! My days are wide open to focus on your fur babies, ensuring they get regular bathroom breaks, plenty of active playtime, and all the attention they deserve. I am highly accommodating for weekday routines. Safety and trust are my absolute top priorities when caring for your animals. Whether visiting for drop ins or house sitting, I treat your home with the utmost respect and follow your exact instructions to keep your pets safe. As an obsessed cat parent with two felines of my own, I am highly attentive to animal behavior, ensuring a calm, happy, and completely stress free experience for your fur babies right in their own comfortable environment.

“Stays in great contact. I felt like I had a family member helping us out. I got up to date pictures. The walks and feedings were on time and our dog loved the visits. I will definitely look to rebook with Adrienne S.”

“Christina was amazing! She was understanding and patient with my anxious pup, and capable of handling my dog-reactive one. I always worry that my roughhousing, loud dogs will be too intense for people, but Christina's experience proved to be a perfect fit! I would definitely recommend her as a sitter :)”

About: I have had a variety of animals always in my life. I have cared for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish and rodents. (All of which I've had at some point) I have also worked for a rescue charity for 7+ years which resulted in having learned basic and emergency care, as well as administration of medication. I am retired and looking to fill my time with love and cuddles. I have always enjoyed caring for the variety of animals I have and have had. I love learning all the cute special quirks and loves of every animal I interact with. I am very respectful of other people's space and items - my focus is on the animals in my charge. I can feed, walk, play and generally be a companion to any animal. I also respect the home and treat it even better than my own, ensuring that I leave the home as I found it.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life. I walk a malamute and husky a lot. I pet sit for smaller dogs too. I love walking dogs because it’s a good exercise for them I currently am still in high school I graduate in June so right now I’m available to walk dogs around 4pm. I drive so I can do a little far distance When walking dogs I walk them for an hour and I always bring water to make sure they get the water they need and don’t overheat

“Jillian is so thoughtful and kind! I knew my little catdude was well taken care of and comfortable. She sent lots of vids and updates throughout and made sure he was well fed and had lots of treats. 10/10 experience!”

“Mindy took good care of my kitty for a week recently. Good communication during my trip. I will definitely rebook with her. Very reliable and nice to work with. Recommend!”

“Logan is spectacular!”

“Kay is wonderful! Super communicative, kind, and trustworthy. Best compliment for a pet sitter is when the pet is barely excited to see their owner when they return because they were so well loved, and my cat had obviously been given great care and attention from Kay and was totally normal and regulated when we got home. Thanks so much for everything, Kay!!! Toaster and we appreciate you!!”

About: People often say I have a way with animals. They always seem drawn to me immediately, even when they are wary of others. I feel honored that animals feel this way about me because I feel the same about them! I have cared for many dogs of all sizes as well as owned cats. I have volunteered at a dog rescue in Thailand that has many disabled dogs as well as fostered cats/kittens here at home. I have a big fenced yard with both grass and forest to run and play. I don’t have multiple dogs staying with me at one time ( unless discussed in advance) so your baby will get all the attention. Although I will never replace you, I can provide love and safety until you return (and probably some treats and adventures too!) I'm currently not working and can dedicate my time to pet/house sitting and care. As you can see from my photo gallery, I love all animals and have volunteered at a dog rescue in Thailand, fostered kittens at home, and have seen very cool animals in the wild and at animal rescues/sanctuaries around the world. (I always vet them to make sure they are ethical and doing legit work) I have a large fenced yard and indoor space for cats or dogs. We have plenty of shade and are also willing to take pets with us on outings. I live with my husband and son and they also love and respect animals. As far as caring for pets at someone else's home, I can stay at your house or check in as often as needed. I will play with them, feed them, bathe them, take them places (if requested) and give them love. I know they miss their people and its not the same without you, but I do my best to make them feel safe and comfortable.

About: I offer calm, attentive care for pets, with a steady presence that helps animals feel safe and settled. • Experienced with dog walking, feeding, and drop-in care • Calm, attentive, and intuitive with animals of all temperaments • Comfortable with routines, medications, and special needs • Reliable and respectful in both short visits and extended care Over the past several years, I’ve immersed myself in house and pet sitting, earning a reputation for reliability, cleanliness, discretion, and a calm, responsible presence. I’m often entrusted with extended and live-in care, and I take stewardship of both pets and home seriously. I’ve cared for a wide range of animals and situations, including long-term dog sitting for a couple over several years, from weekend trips to multi-week stays. Before a period of travel abroad, they even flew me to Portland to care for their dogs, Sana and Osa, and their cat Ninja during a three-week wedding trip to Mexico. Sana required extra sensitivity and daily car rides to a quiet cemetery to avoid overstimulation, which I was happy to accommodate. I’ve also house- and pet-sat for a senior couple, caring for two cats, two chickens, and managing a daily bird-feeding system for local avian visitors who were dear companions to the homeowner. In another sit, I tended to a rescue crow and her two cat companions for a full month while the owners were in India studying Vedic astrology. In many of these situations, I’ve also been responsible for watering plants, collecting mail, maintaining routines, and simply being a reassuring human presence in the home—keeping things running smoothly, lights on, and the house clearly lived-in while owners are away. I’m very comfortable accommodating unique requests and supporting both pets and homes with care and respect. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which allows me to be present and adapt my day around your pets’ needs. I’m able to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, medication, playtime, and companionship, and I’m open to coordinating routines that support your pet’s comfort and wellbeing. I provide care in my clients’ homes, maintaining their pets’ normal routines and environment. I focus on calm, attentive presence, safety, and clear communication. I’m comfortable administering medication, managing feeding and exercise, and keeping the home clean, secure, and lived-in while you’re away. I treat each home and animal with respect, discretion, and care.

“Makaylan was super kind, sweet, and communicative! Our cats were in good care and I would definitely recommend her service!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was a kid, and even had the opportunity to volunteer at a boarding place when I was 8 where I got to play with, help train and take care of the dogs that came through. I’ve being pet sitting for about 3 years now for friends, neighbors, and strangers I’ve met through others I have previously pet sat for. I’m currently a full time college student and have been needing some extra money to help me get through, so I thought this would be a perfect fit! I have a large fenced yard with two dogs and two cats who my family and I love dearly. One of our cats was actually a pregnant stray who we brought in, and had a litter of 7 kittens!

About: Everyday I care for over thirty livestock animals alongside my mother and our dog, Dottie. I have also grown up my whole life with and around dogs. From animals as young as birth, I am able to help in caring for all different types of furry friends! I'm currently working full-time, but my work schedule is fairly easy to work around. I am able be with your animal until about noon, making enough time for a walk and some play time, and be back around early evening, just in time for dinner and another walk. I also have two days completely free for them! If needed, I am able to provide a safe, fenced in space for your animal at my own residence. There is a good amount of land for them to run around and get out their zoomies.

“Irene was a great kitty sitter! Harald was well taken care of (despite telling us he was starving to death, but he tends to be dramatic) and there were zero issues. Being able to ask her last minute for a holiday sitting job was great, too. We totally recommend her. :)”

“Colin did a great job taking care of our animals while we were on vacation. He was great with communication and always kept me up on how things were going. It was great to feel comfortable leaving on vacation and knowing our animals were well cared for.”

About: I've been pet sitting and farm/house sitting since I was about 14 years old and grew up with animals of my own on my parents' farm. I'm super excited and also very confident in my abilities to watch and care for your pet as if they were my own! I work remotely, so I'm able to cater my schedule to the needs of any pets I'm sitting. This could mean early morning and evening walks, mid day check ins, etc. I take notes on what the owner typically offers the pet in their normal day to day and incorporate that so the pet feels as comfortable as possible. However, I will ask if your pet (if a dog) is up for a daily hike as this is what I do by myself regardless. Secretly looking for a hiking buddy 👀

About: Taking care of animals is my second nature. I grew up with animals; horses, cats, dogs, birds, rodents my entire life. I naturally feel their needs and have an unconditional love for animals I am super flexible for the summer. Tell me where you and your pet need help and I'm sure that we can work it out. I have a dog myself who loves to join walks. He is very well behaved and has taught several young dogs the code of social and healthy dog behavior. Of course I will keep your dog on a leash or in a crate when necessary
