Cat Sitting Rutland

About: I have just completed my undergraduate degree in social work. I have grown up with dogs and cats all my life and looking after them is now just second nature to me. Back at home I have three dogs, Two Jack Russells and Border Collie cross; a very busy household! I have has caring responsibilities all my life growing up with these animals as we've never been without a dog in the house. I also have a cat, and so am familiar with looking after feline friends too! I am currently working a part time job in a social care sector. I am currently working a part time job, in a social care sector Wednesday to Friday. So am available Saturday to Tuesday to help look after your furry friends. I am honest and reliable, with great experience walking and keeping dogs entertained. I am looking forward to meeting your pets and getting to know their wonderful personalities.

About: I have had cats for as long as I can remember, growing up with them from a very young age. Over the years, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their behaviour, personalities, and individual needs. Currently, I have three cats of my own and two dogs, so caring for multiple cats and managing different temperaments is something I’m very comfortable with. I absolutely love cats—honestly, I’m a bit obsessed. I enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s playing with energetic kittens or giving gentle attention to older, more relaxed cats. I’m experienced with cats at all stages of life, from young, playful kittens to senior cats who may need a quieter, more attentive approach. I’m committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for any cat in my care. I understand that every cat is different, and I’m more than happy to accommodate their individual routines, preferences, and needs—whether that means sticking to specific feeding schedules, administering basic care, or simply giving them the space or affection they require to feel at ease I have a fairly flexible routine that allows me to provide attentive care. During the week (Monday to Friday), I mostly work in the evenings, while on weekends I typically work in the mornings. Outside of these hours, I’m available and able to dedicate time to caring for pets. I’m also more than happy to be flexible and work around my schedule to suit specific needs, ensuring each cat receives the time, attention, and care they require. In my home, I make sure every cat feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. They’ll have a warm and cosy environment with access to food bowls, a water fountain, and soft cat beds with blankets—although they’re more than welcome to join me on the bed if that’s what they prefer. I provide clean litter trays (one upstairs and one downstairs) to keep things convenient and hygienic. There are plenty of toys and treats to keep them entertained and happy, as well as two cat trees for climbing, scratching, and relaxing. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I always aim to stick closely to their usual routine so they feel as settled as possible. I’ll follow all instructions carefully, whether that’s feeding schedules, playtime, or giving them space, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away.

“He was so contented when I arrived home that I thought you were both out. He loves being with you and likes the varied activities. Another excellent day!”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and have always been a big animal lover. I always am first to volunteer to look after family & friends dogs - I have a lot of love to give! I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement, which I use to help dogs feel comfortable and cared for. Whether it’s energetic puppies who need structure or older dogs who need gentler care, I know how to adapt to their needs. Having raised two dogs of my own with my parents, I treat every pup as if they’re family ◡̈ Right now, I do work a 8.30-5 Mon-Fri job, however I can give your pets plenty of time and attention when I am not working whether that be in the evenings or at weekends. I love spending time with animals, please message me if you would like my help and we can discuss! Whether it’s a walk, drop-in, or longer visits, I can be there when you and your pets need me most. I’m more than happy to look after your pets in the comfort of their home. This way, they can stay in a familiar environment and keep to their usual routine. I’ll make sure they get plenty of exercise with walks in their local area, along with playtime, cuddles, feeding, and anything else they need to feel safe and happy while you’re away.

About: I’ve been taking care of pups & dogs for the past 12 years. I enjoy taking them for a walk and just spending as much time as I can, it’s simply therapeutic for me! I first started pet sitting back when I was a student, mostly because I missed my own dog back home and loved any excuse to spend time with furry friends. Over the years, it’s become more than just a way to fill that gap. It’s something I truly enjoy. Now that I work from home, I have the flexibility to give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’d love to help make your life easier and keep your pets happy while you’re away! 🐾 Happy to do drop-ins or stay at your home. I also offer boarding (spacious garden) for pets who are comfortable with their own routine and downtime.

About: I take care of my aunts cat, my boyfriends cat on occasion and walk my uncles dog. I have a strong care for all pets! I am currently on a gap year, and I work part time, (2 days a week), so I have plenty of time to give my undivided attention to pets who need caring for and a warm environment! We have a fenced garden, and in a village lovely for dog walking, but also my mum and I love animals so will be in a loving environment for play and affection, but also prioritising trust so the pet feels safe and secure.

“Hannah did a lovely job. One happy dog!!”

About: I have dog and cat-sat since I was 12, including elderly cats, for my neighbours as well as being brought up with 7 dogs, I also have my own cat right now who I have had since being a kitten thus giving me experience with babies. In terms of dogs I have taken care of a Jack Russel puppy, a Golden Lab, Dalmatian and Shih Tzu's. I have also been in households with dogs and cats at the same time, which has given me experience with handling multiple animals and different animals at the same time. I currently am seeking part-time employment to save up for uni, but I am unemployed as of right now. I also have a car so I am free to travel and as a student on summer break I have much free-time and any plans which do come up are always flexible around your needs. I can always be trusted in your home as a long-term pet sitter and babysitter as well as previously working in two school environments. I have plenty of training on safety as well as the communication skills and experience to understand your needs from me.

About: I am currently looking after a dog for a friend on a weekly basis, often going to the park, looking after him overnight, and sometimes day trips. I have raised my family dog since he was a puppy, so am fully aware of what that entails. When I go back home, I walk and take care of him. I live with my boyfriend who has had cats in the past, so I am used to having them in the house and how to take care of them. With this, I have lots of experience of walking, feeding, bathing, and keeping pets happy! I'm currently working from home full-time, so can look after pets at any time! My hours are also very flexible so I'm able to go for walks during my working day. I live in a flat, with a secure back garden that is fenced in. The front door to the flat block is always kept locked. I am happy to do whatever is needed to keep your pet safe and happy!

“Dilsathnisha was so kind and attentive to my two cats during the week. She sent lovely updates and was responsive with messages too. I felt relaxed and comfortable leaving my cats with her and would definitely book again!”

About: I’ve been involved with animals ever since I can remember! From owning 3 horses and 2 beloved rescue dogs! I know how to adapt and change to each animal understanding not all of them are the same. I am also a qualified nurse so from my animal experience and nursing experience I’ve learnt how to communicate with both owner and animal. I work as an nurse as hoc and have enjoyed taking a break from the hospital!! And I have a wide range of availability and will most likely be free! I can communicate effectively with you the owner to understand where your pet is allowed. From owning two rescue dogs I’m also aware of certain dogs being afraid or aggressive to other dogs so I would walk on other side of the path to keep dogs away. I have had a huge experience around poorly pets- My current rescue has to have regular medication including injections and eye drops, I have also had experience with strokes amongst dogs and post operative care. My being a vet has enabled me to pick up critical information for dealing with emergency’s and the general health and well being of animals. I am also aware that dogs love company and like other dogs so I’m suited to all pet needs. I also give great cuddles and I seem to have a good track record with pets and they seem to always want more! I have plenty of time to play with your pups or cats due to being a newly graduate from university. I am available weekdays, weekends and all times of the day. I will ensure your dog remains in eye contact to make sure there’s no escapes. My sister is a qualified vet and my experience and knowledge of emergency care has grown from her. I will have your vets contact number in my phone before any visit/sitting.

Animal welfare consultant for several charities and public services, Puppy trainer and novice gun dog trainer I have spent most of my adult life working with animals mainly dogs, but have experience with cats and scary birds, it’s a passion for me Generally Entering into an Animals house for the first time is challenging for the Animal, by letting the animal come to you allows for the Animal To build trust

About: hello! i am based near Bourne and have just moved back from Sheffield where I was living after university. During my time at university, i felt lonely and homesick from all my animals back home so i downloaded Rover for some animal company and met the best furry friends ever! I have decided to keep the app whilst having moved from sheffield as I wish to continue my furry friend journey :) i do drive aswell which is a bonus! i work for BMW but have aspirations to become a primary school teacher one day and as much as I adore working with children, I love spending time with animals too! i work from 8:30am to 5:30pm everyday and have the weekends free which could be spent entertaining and looking after your furry child/children instead of scrolling through tiktok hehe i feel as the best person to trust with your pet would be someone who’s grown up on a mini farm around all sorts of animals. At my parent’s home i have 2 dogs, 5 cats and 4 sassy chickens (mine is called dora the eggsplora). I love walking the dogs at home through the countryside and changing the chicken run aswell as making sure all animals have food and water. these responsibilities never feel like chores!
