Personalized care for your dog or cat - Cave City

“Hope did a great job with our dog! She always kept us up to date once a day and was always pleasant!”

“I could not have had a better dog sitter than Patience. This was Ollie's first time being with a sitter and he had never been left with a stranger. I was very concerned. Patience was wonderful. She texted me pictures of Ollie through the day and assured me that he was doing fine. Ollie surprised me on the second day. We pulled into the driveway and Ollie started whining. I thought it was because he was afraid of being left with Patience. Wrong! When I opened the car door, he jumped right out and went to Patience. He then stood on his hind legs, placed his front paws on her thigh, and wanted to he petted. I was in shock! This said everything to me and is the reason for a 5 star rating. Ollie loved her and wanted to be with her...'nuff said.”

About: I am very good with animals mainly cats and dogs and I am very safe with handling animals and I am very comfortable with animals I am pretty flexible and able to adjust my schedule to accommodate them as needed and I have owned cats and dogs and birds as well. I usually keep them in doors and take them outside to play and I have a fence around my yard and I will prioritize safety

“Patience was so lovely for this spintaneous decision I had. We may need to do a meet and greet to try and get Sam familiar with her officially. Howecer, I would request Patience again!”

“Raven is amazing with our cat. She is caring, reliable, tends to all his needs, and she gives me peace of mind knowing George is in great hands while I’m gone.”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the level of care, structure, and attention I bring to every animal I look after. I take a lot of pride in providing excellent care for my own pets, and I treat every animal in my care with that same level of love and responsibility. I’ve had dogs of my own for over 4 years, and even before that, I was trusted to care for multiple dogs belonging to friends and family. Through that experience, I’ve learned how important consistency, safety, and intentional care are for keeping pets happy and stress-free. I provide a structured, safe environment while still making sure each pet feels comfortable, loved, and understood. I also have experience caring for cats, so I’m comfortable working with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority, and I’m committed to making sure they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a huge part of my daily life. My routine truly revolves around my animals. I already structure my days around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure my pets are happy, healthy, and well cared for. Because of that, adding pet care for others fits very naturally into my weekly routine. I have plenty of time, flexibility, and attention to give, so I’m able to be very present and intentional with every pet I care for. Whether it’s sticking to a specific schedule, providing exercise, or just giving them extra love and attention, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I live in a house with two dogs of my own and about 2 cleared acres, giving plenty of space for safe, supervised outdoor time. While my property isn’t fenced, I’m very mindful about safety and always use leashes, harnesses, or close supervision. My neighborhood is also great for walks, and I have a park nearby that I love taking dogs to for extra exercise and enrichment. I’m fully equipped with supplies like leashes, harnesses, crates, and bowls, so I can easily meet each pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize respect, consistency, and attention to detail. I follow all instructions closely to maintain your pet’s normal routine and comfort. I’m very mindful of your space and always aim to leave your home even better than I found it. Most importantly, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I have experience with pet medication, walking, and basic grooming and training. I’m available most of the time. I love taking dogs on close by trails, or to a dog park if preferred. I can also provide dog training. Dogs are a lot of fun and honestly I don’t want to be doing anything else. I’m very responsible and reliable and a I have a new car which kind of ensures that transportation won’t be an issue. If you give me a chance, I’ll be there. And if you let me, I’ll bring my dogs and we can have a puppy play date, if you will. I’m still young so I can definitely keep up, and so can my own dogs. I work Monday-Friday, 8am-4pm. So I’m available for evening walks and evening visits, and I’m completely open on the weekends! I can feed your pets on time and adhere to whatever your potty schedule may be. I have a fenced in yard and a loving 5 year old dog. We love guests at our house. If you prefer, I can watch your babies at your house. This is my most common request.

About: I grew up with plenty of cats and dogs in and outside the home. At 12, I started a "business" dog walking and learning how to give shots to a diabetic cat. For a few years I also worked with 4Pawed Redemption, a veteran-run non-profit designed to help rehome military family pets. I also successfully trained my own pup to qualify as a service animal to help a friend in need, but care doesn't stop with dogs! I've also helped with ferrets, snakes, tortoises and parakeets before-just please no tarantulas! Hope you find the help you're looking for :) Currently working part-time before going to college in August, but I have plenty of time to work around nearly any schedule within my range, and with most addresses in Batesville I can even visit the local dog park! I always ask up front about any allergies or sensitivities your pet might have, in addition to what training they have gone through and their everyday personality. By knowing how they usually act, I'm better able to help them with any signs of nervousness or anxiety and adjust their care accordingly, so it's not just about food and water with me :)
