Cat Sitting in Varysburg

“Laura was absolutely amazing as a pet sitter and went above and beyond in every way. She took wonderful care of our two cats, making sure they were well-fed, had fresh water, and that their litter boxes were always clean. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about their well-being. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a pet sitter who provides exceptional service and truly treats your pets like her own.”

About: Loving and caring for my pets as well as those of others’ has been such a joy in my life and I offer that same love, care and attention to your best friends! Whether you need overnight stays or drop-in services, I’d love to meet your fur babies and keep them happy, healthy and safe until their best friends return. I’m currently retired and am very flexible time-wise. I’m available any day of the week, as overnight stays, or everyday of the week from 7-9ish. I currently have two golden retrievers and a fenced in yard but find that most dogs, and all cats, prefer their own surroundings so am willing and able to come to you home and take care of them.

“Mickey was great! Very flexible and communicative, and spent ample amounts of time with the cats playing and cuddling. She's earned a repeat customer!”

About: From the first moments I could remember, I have always been around and caring for dogs and cats. I'm also a professional equine bodyworker, with medical experience that is easily translated over to our smaller, 4-legged friends. I take a gentle and intuitive approach with animals, focusing on positive reinforcement. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule. If staying at your home, I will never be gone for more than 8 hrs at a time. Weekends are usually no issue to schedule around either While staying at your home, I stick to the routine you have developed with your pets to make it as stress-free as possible. I recognize the importance of structure with dogs and cats, and losing that while their humans are away can be a big stressor. I will do my best to act as an extension of you while you are away to ensure the most personalized care.

“Victoria has been great! She went above and beyond while taking care of my two girls. Highly recommend!”

About: I have always had a connection to animals, and I believe they require more love, attention, and exercise than most of us can squeeze in a day. Let me brighten their day with walks and extra play time! My work schedule is flexible, and I would love to fit some time throughout each day to be around more animals. I can be contacted day of or scheduled weekly for assistance! My home is filled with three cats who my life revolves around. I work from home, so I am able to care for them throughout the day and shower them with affection! Let me go to you so your pets can get the same treatment (I really like dogs too).

About: Always had pets (cats, dogs, rodents) growing up, one year of horse barn experience and dog training apprenticehood at Summit K9 in Rochester NY! My dog training consisted of... - consistent feedback from two licensed trainers - leash walking skills - reactivity reduction (barking at other dogs, the door, people) - managing doggy daycare including half a day of one on one training and half a day of social groups - creating groups, managing consistent training across multiple employees - assessing the training and social level of any particular dog - crating skills - taking crate sensitive/aggressive dogs in and out of crates - walking people sensitive/stranger aggressive dogs - teaching cue recognition (place, sit, down, yes, no) - caring for boarding dog's needs - walking multiple dogs at once, training dogs to walk together With cats I am comfortable and knowledgeable about... - providing appropriate play - basic training using food incentive and luring - picking up a cat appropriately by supporting the spine and reducing tension on the scruff - responding to stomach issues and puke - reading body language for anxiety and aggression With horses I am familiar and comfortable with all daily care including stable cleaning and fetching skiddish horses from pasture. As for my pets.. My first cat was a stray found at 4 weeks that I learned how to teach to groom and care for himself. I also know how to manage ear mites, or any other kind of skin or tick care. Our dog was a breeder who also has needed a lot of specialized care. I am most experienced with rodents (have owned over 8 rats, 4 guinea pigs and a rabbit)! I've never personally owned a bird or a lizard, but have cared for friends and I always commit to accurate research. If you have any questions or worries regarding my experience and competency I would love to hear from you! I am very available right now, and I intend to make pet care my biggest priority. I am happy to discuss all kinds of scheduling. I love going above and beyond for my pets. Our cats are indoor and outdoor but I am always checking on them and keep a consistent feeding schedule to prevent overeating (they have sensitive stomachs). Our dog is also very needy, as she has some anxiety from her last owner so she needs to always be accompanied while outside and will not do certain things alone. I keep my rats in my room where they get frequent engagement with the whole family, and I enjoy making homemade puzzles and toys for them. Overall, all of our animals live active, healthy lives!

About: For almost a year I was the number one care giver to my neighbors 2 dogs and for over 4 years I have had a total of 2 dogs and 3 cats that had been under my loving care. I currently work part time so I have more than enough time in my day to enjoy the company of your loving animals. I mainly work nights but never more than a 5-6 hr shift. Safety and happiness are my top priorities for your animals. I have extras in everything from leashes to toys available to me at any time.

“Very friendly and made sure to give my cats the attention they needed while I was away. Will definitely book again”

About: **About me** Hello! My name is Mariah, I am a sophomore in college pursing a Veterinary degree! I have always loved working with animals and have grown up around them all my life. I have such a strong passion for animals of any kind which is why I am pursing a career in it! All throughout my life I have watched family and friends animals and my love for working with animals have grown every day. Growing up with dogs, cats, and other pets it has given me a great amount of knowledge about them and how to take care of them. I feel that each animal has it's own unique personality which makes them even more special. I am good at taking care of animals with medical conditions or post surgical. I gave medications to many dogs before and have taken care of post surgical. I took care of pets with bandages that needed cleaning and broken bones. **About my home** When you are away or have a trip and need someone to take care of such as walk, feed, love, or bathe your animal I will be there! If you are at work or have an event that prevents you from being there to take care of your pet, I am able to come and help you out! **About my neighborhood** I live in Jefferson City. There are some nice trails by me and the Cherokee Dam! There is also Panther Creek State Park that has beautiful trails for walking and getting energy out! There is plenty of open land around that pets will love! **What to expect** I love playing with and showing animals how special they are which I am confident they will enjoy as well! I enjoy going for runs and long walks which they will too! The lake near me is one of the best spots to play and walk. **Special rules or requests** I am open to any size, and breed of dog, cat, etc. I do not have a preference on sizes of dogs. I also am not bothered by breeds of dogs, I truly believe that every dog is just as good as the next and the most misunderstood breeds of dogs are the most loving.
