Top rated Vandalia cat sitters
“Shelbi was so fantastic with our 3 kitties! Both Shelbi and the cats seemed to really enjoy the visits. We usually have family help us with sitting but they are not "cat people" so it was extra comforting to get messages and photos from someone who appreciates all the things we love about our animals too :)”
“Britany is the best! She is great with my cat Pierre and always sends the cutest pictures of him. He’s very comfortable with her! She is very reliable, trustworthy and friendly overall.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Tatum provided for my cats, Jerry, Riley, and Joey! From our first meet and greet visit, Tatum impressed me by taking detailed notes to ensure Jerry, who is diabetic, received his correct insulin dose. Her attentiveness and precision made me feel confident that Jerry would get his shots on time, twice a day. Throughout my time away, she kept me updated with adorable photos and notes, which really put my mind at ease. When I returned, all three cats were relaxed, happy, and well-cared for. I wholeheartedly recommend Tatum to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and attentive cat sitter-she truly treats pets like family! I will definitely book her again.”
“This is the second time I’ve needed a cat sitter and I made sure to book Maggie again! She’s awesome with my cat, is consistent and reliable. She takes great care of him and sends me lots of photos everyday. I’ll continue to book her every time I have to leave town.”
“Yolena was a life saver and was able to watch my cat even though the request was very last minute. She kept me updated and sent pictures letting me know how my cat was doing. Great communication as well! Highly recommend!”
“Highly recommend. 10/10. We love Susan! She is a caring, thoughtful and trustworthy. She takes excellent care of my senior cat with special needs. I’ve never felt more at ease going out of town and leaving Tinkerbell’s care in her hands. If you are looking for a reliable person who you can trust, look no further than Susan; She’s the very best.”
“Kayla did a wonderful job with my two kitties. She spent time playing with them, sent me pictures each visit and did extras like wash a throw rug that one of my cats got sick on! She watered plants, as well as, care for my kitties. Litter boxes cleaned daily. I will definitely use her again when I go out of town again. She has a kind and pleasant personality and definitely cares about animals. Thanks Kayla!”
“Shaelyn is awesome! So thankful for how she cared for my kitties while I was away- I was slow to message and she read my mind with some of the things I forgot to mention ahead of time (e.g. adding extra litter to the litter box). Reliable and 100% will book again!!”

My goal is always to make them feel safe when their owners aren’t around.

“If you're looking for someone that will love and care for your pet the way that you do, Angie is your girl! I have always been so hesitant to leave my dogs in the care of other people but when I found Angie I just knew it was the perfect fit! My two wild dogs love her so much and I know she loves them just as much. I trust Angie with my dogs and my home whenever I am stuck at a long day of work or out of town on vacation. 5 out of 5 stars isn't enough of a rating for her, I give her a 10!”
