Cat Sitting in Toney

“Melissa made me feel so incredibly comfortable with leaving my animals in her care. She was very communicative, she really spent time loving on them which made me feel not so bad for leaving them. She went above and beyond and I’m happy to have found her.”

About: One thing that sets me apart is my firsthand experience caring for a reactive dog of my own. That experience taught me how important patience, consistency, body language awareness, and calm handling are when working with dogs who may be anxious, overstimulated, fearful, or slow to trust new people. Because of that, I’m very mindful of creating a safe, low-stress environment where pets can feel comfortable at their own pace. I’m experienced with maintaining routines, managing different energy levels, and recognizing behavioral cues before situations become stressful. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, high-energy breeds, and pets who need extra patience or structure. I also know how important communication is to pet parents, so I provide reliable updates, photos, and detailed check-ins for peace of mind while you’re away. Because I run my own special education advocacy business, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable and attentive pet care throughout the week. My work gives me the ability to accommodate a variety of schedules, including daytime visits, overnight stays, weekends, and many holiday needs. I’m able to plan my schedule carefully so pets receive consistent care, attention, exercise, and companionship rather than rushed drop-ins. Flexibility also means I can better adapt to pets with specific routines, medication schedules, anxiety needs, or extra potty breaks. I care for pets by focusing on keeping their routine as normal, comfortable, and stress-free as possible. In a client’s home, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, bathroom breaks, fresh water, meals on schedule, and affection based on their individual personality and needs. I understand that many pets feel safest in their familiar environment, so I try to maintain the routines they’re used to while also keeping the home clean, secure, and well cared for. I pay close attention to behavior, body language, and energy levels so I can adapt care appropriately, whether a pet needs active play, mental stimulation, quiet companionship, or extra patience. My experience owning a reactive dog has made me especially mindful about creating calm interactions and respecting each animal’s comfort level and boundaries.

“Kaitlyn was very patient with my dogs. She responded in a timely manner and made a huge effort in attending to their needs. I really appreciated her persistence and willingness to work with my dogs:)”

“Nyah was on time and took great care of our dog squad. She must have tired them out pretty good because when I got home they were happy but not the usual spastic insane maniacs that I expected. I will look for her next I need a Rover.”

“Jessica was very sweet with our gal. She is older and Jessica made sure she kept me in the loop on everything. Would use her services again.”

“Amy was great! I had a bad experience with Rover before and a different pet sitter bailed after I had already left for vacation. Amy reassured me during the meet and great and I felt comfortable leaving (and having no cell service) my elderly cat in her care. She sent detailed updates everyday and took great care of my cat! I will absolutely be using Amy again!”

“Marissa was efficient, professional and punctual.”

About: I have take care of many different pups of all breeds and personalities. This includes my own, family and friends, volunteering at shelters and even the local dog wash. I'm currently starting school part-time so I'll have plenty of time to walk, take care of, and play with your pets! I'm mostly available with flexibility and depending upon my schedule, some days I'm fully free! I'm very cautious in following instructions and needs of any pet. I'm good at keeping pups at a good walking pace, I love playing with pets to keep them active, and I'll set extra timers and keep set schedules for your pet's eating habits.

“Ashley did a great job taking care of our kitties. Very responsive. Very professional. She came at very short notice and got us taken care of when we had an emergency. We couldn't ask for any better! Thank you so much!”

“Austin was great at the meet and greet. He took notes and ask good questions. He has performed several drop ins and is learning how to work with my dogs. They can be difficult because they are afraid of new people but he is patient with them. We really appreciate his time and effort.”

Amber S.

“Gillian was wonderful! We got updates and pictures at each visit, and she even turned on cat tv each time for our kitten. We will book Gillian again if we ever go out of town and need pet care!”

Kailee S.

“Madison is great with my timid dogs. Very patient and they are warming up to her. Have used her for several drops and will continue to use her for that and in house sitting.”

About: Working in a groomer’s shop taught me how to safely and confidently handle dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. I also grew up around animals and now have 2 Golden Retrievers and a cat of my own, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I have experience with basic obedience training, crate training, housetraining, and helping pups learn good habits. I’ve also cared for a variety of other animals such as cats, rats, hamsters, and birds. I work remotely and set my own schedule, so I’m home all day with plenty of time to spend with my own dogs and yours. We live on 2 fully fenced acres, so the dogs get lots of outdoor time, play breaks, and supervision throughout the day. Every pet is different, and you know your pets best. I’m happy to follow whatever routines or preferences you have - feeding schedules, crate time, training rules, meds, anything you need. My goal is to keep your pet feeling safe, comfortable, and loved just like they are at home. I do slow, supervised introductions and keep a close eye during playtime to make sure everyone feels relaxed and secure.

“Sharon did a great hob with my three dogs! She sent regular updates with videos, and even brought in some packages that were at the door. I highly recommend her.”

About: •dog sat for a neighbor every summer growing up for years. (2018-2021) •dog sat and house sat for a family friend for a month. (2026) •owned 2 cats and 1 dog my whole childhood and cared for them I'm currently a student in college, so I'm available all summer and then part time during the school year. During the school year, my classes are pretty spaced out, so I could easily do dog walking in between classes. In my client's home, I will take care of their pet/home according to the instructions the owner leaves! If they have a backyard with a fence, I would watch their dog attentively. And if I were walking a dog, I would try to avoid getting near potential hazards.

About: I have been a Pet Sitter, for cats and dogs, and I have walked dogs for my family and friends for years now. Pet Care has become a passion of mine! I have no problem keeping up with high-need or active animals. I am good at keeping animals calm and non-destructive by keeping them entertained and making sure they get their proper exercise. I have helped train 2 dogs recently. I am also good with older pets who may need a bit extra help. I am a part time worker so I have lots! Of time to play around with your pets! I am available most weekdays for casual things while I am available weekends for boarding! I have a big fenced in backyard that your pet can run around in! I have a older male Sheepadoodle that can keep your pet company. And you will always have the choice to ask for them to be kept separate. I will clean your pet’s paws with baby wipes after they come in from outside so that they return to you squeaky clean! I am located in a house so space is not an issue for your pet, and I can provide toys!

“Maria was great! Being first timers with Rover, we weren’t sure of the outcome. Maria met with us. She listened to our concerns, putting us at ease by answering the questions we had. She provided great care to our 3 dogs, all of which require their own unique specialized care. She administered oral medications as well as topical medicine for skin ailments. Maria was wonderful!! She went above and beyond in taking care of our dogs. We will definitely use Maria C. again in the future!”
