Cat Sitting in Volcanoville

“Remi is a wonderful care taker. After our initial meeting, I knew she was the right person to care for my senior dog. She even visited with my gecko. Remi will be my go-to person for future needs. I strongly recommend her!”

“Melissa went above and beyond during her house sitting for me. She’s communicative, reliable, and she even cleaned my apartment for me, which was extremely kind and appreciated. I trust my cats with her and I would book again with Melissa in a heartbeat.”

About: I am a compassionate life long animal lover. I’ve worked in animal hospitals with large boarding facilities, as the lead kennel technician, as well as being a veterinary assistant. I spent my days playing with and caring for other people's animals. I am able to give medications and tend to special needs animals. Though I left my hospital job when I moved here at the beginning of the pandemic, I've chosen to continue to work with animals because it is something that comes naturally to me & I feel that it's important to love what you do. I look forward to meeting new furry friends! I now have a fairly open schedule so I am mostly free to work with new clients to meet their pets needs and keep a consistent routine 💜 I am happy to hang out and get cozy with animals that aren’t up to outside playtime, and I love being outside with those that do have more energy! My parents currently have a puppy and I visit daily to have play time and help wear him out a bit (bc it’s so fun!).

“Nicole took excellent care of our cat Kitty for a week. She was well organized, neat and left a clean environment for Kitty every day. Enjoyed the photos sent to us.”

About: Hello! I’ve been loving and caring for local pets for around 25 yrs. Some pets were young pups and kittens; some were older seniors. I specialize in petsitting at my clients homes. My longest pet sitting job was 3.5 weeks while the owners were in Italy. I have many referrals. I’ve taken care of miniature horses, Friesian horses, and a pig. (We have a lot of rural homes in Auburn area). I’m retired from a construction accounting job. We’re gladly at home most days! My shedule is flexible; if you have an emergency need for pet sitting, I’m your gal. I prefer to petsit at my client’s homes. The animals rather appreciate this. I like to meet the animal(s) before sitting so when I arrive, we have a connection. I give the animals plenty of one-on-one attention. This may include doggy massage to calm them and get to know them. Lots of walks if they like that. Potty Breaks every couple of hours to begin with, as they’re sometimes nervous or have stomach upsets. I’d like to know your favorite names for them, what your routines are, rituals, their favorite things to do. I’ve also stayed with animals after their surgeries to monitor when the owner has to work.

About: Tailored pet care with over 30 years of experience. I provide a warm and nurturing environment, ensuring that you and your pet feel loved and protected. I work full-time in a position that offers the flexibility to work from home, allowing me to split my time between the office and the comfort of my own space. On average, I work from home about 50% of the time, which gives me a great balance of productivity and personal time. My office is just a short drive away, so I’m never far from home and can easily make the commute whenever needed. This arrangement allows me to be present for both work and home life, ensuring I can stay connected while also enjoying the benefits of a flexible schedule. I live on a peaceful, country property spanning three acres, surrounded by nature and wide-open spaces. The entire property is securely fenced, ensuring a safe and enclosed environment where your pets can roam freely and explore to their hearts' content. With plenty of room to run, play, and enjoy the outdoors, it's an ideal setting for furry companions to stretch their legs and soak up the fresh air. Whether it's chasing after a ball or simply lounging in the sun, your pets will have all the space they need to feel at home.

“Maryjane was great! She stepped in when an emergency forced my other sitter to end the stay early and she picked up the care for my cat without missing a beat! My cat clearly loved her, too. He was happy and well fed, and my apartment looked great when I got home! I will definitely book with her again!”

“Ashley did a wonderful job taking care of our cat with daily visits while we were on vacation. Our cat Molly is usually pretty shy with new people and hides, but she liked Ashley right away. We appreciated the photos, updates and good care she provided!”

About: I grew up with two big German Shepherd huskies and now I have a lab and German Shepherd Husky, and Catahula/B Collie I’ve watched pit bulls as well. Some experience with horses and live stock. Work remote in Cool and have very flexible availability, I can take very short notice jobs and I'm only out of town a few days a month I am someone who runs daily so long dog walks will be fun for me.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was 5. I have a degree in animal science, specializing in horses. I have a one year old Labrador named Kilala who I already take on walks. Let me add your pet to our adventures. I just started a new job. I work Monday-Friday half days. Usually unavailable on weekends unless I have plenty of notice. If the request if for house sitting your dog needs to get along with mine I want to take your dog on walks/hikes. I already have my own dog so she needs to come with me if I am house sitting and ideally she would join in on all walks. Please no pets that are aggressive towards other dogs or people.

About: I was raised from birth with and by dogs. I was raised on a farm with a large pack of dogs of all sizes and types, and that helped me to understand their body language, their need for respect and how to handle them. I have helped in training over 15+ dogs in crate training, potty training, general tricks, and manners. I have also helped pet parents learn more about how to communicate with, support and understand their pets. I am also a mother of 4 that homeschools leaving my schedule more open to the needs and engagement of my visiting pets. I am a stay at home mom and am available 7 days a week unless specified at that time. I intend to walk the pups throughout the day as well as play sessions if the pup enjoys playing. I have a large land that the pups would need to stay leashed in while on walks, but also have a play yard that is perfect for free range play and relaxing. I have a big home that they can find themselves in relaxing with my pup, as well as an outdoor “giant dog house”, that the pups can also lounge in during the day.

“Megan did great with our pup while we were gone. Great communication sent us our pictures as requested and even played with our little guy. We will be using her anytime we go out of town ?”

About: Hello there! My name is Stephanie and I am originally from the Florida panhandle. I have always had many pets my whole life and love and adore animals of all shapes and sizes! Pets can definitely require allot of time and patience and luckily I have both. My very first job was working at a dog day care facility in Tallahassee and it was absolutely amazing. Your animals will get the best and most loving care in the world from me. I am a very punctual and hard-working individual so no matter the size of your pet I am prepared to give them the best care and hopefully a new friend in the long run. I have experience with mini pigs and lizards as well and am open to any pet care encounter :) I have 5 dogs of my own and live on 3 acres in Garden Valley. My job is very flexible and I am looking to do pet sitting full time. I can take whatever days and times I need to care for your babies :) My husband and I live on 3 acres that is partially fenced. We have a large dog run with an automatic waterer and a camera to keep watch at anytime. Also plenty of leashes and harnesses for long walks. In my clients home I cater to all the pets needs equally and ensure plenty of love and potty breaks while also maintaining the cleanliness of the owners home.
