Cat Sitting in Wardsville

“Ashley was amazing! She took such good care of our fur babies. She was wonderful at communicating and sent us photos and updates each day. 10/10 would recommend Ashley for all your pet sitting needs!”

“We appreciate Elizabeth’s warm and engaging personality and excitement about caring for our cat. She sent lots of great pictures and very detailed updates while we were gone. I highly recommend her!”

“I’m not one to submit a review unless the service is really bad or really good. In this case it is really good. Whitney is great. She has dropped in on Jo Jo several times and has gone above and beyond every time. She is completely reliable, knowledgeable, and caring. At the risk of making her availability more competitive, I strongly recommend you consider Whitney to help with your canine family members.”

“Molly is a very professional dog caretaker. I recommend using Molly when you go out of town. She will stop by your house and care for your pet and you have nothing to worry about. She’s kind and follows directions very well.”

About: I have lived on a farm my whole life and have taken care of animals. I also groom dogs and have my own grooming business Em’s doggie salon. I also have experience on giving dogs insulin. I do work a 730-430 job but I always have time in the mornings and I have a hour lunch and then when I’m off I can do whatever the pup/ cat needs! Like I said above I groom dogs already on the weekends so people see and trust me with their pets daily! I have had dog and pets my whole life

“Ashley was great, met my cats prior to drop in visits, the daily updates with pictures were reassuring that our “babies “ were being taken care of.”

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a house full of family dogs and cats as well as some guinea pigs. Throughout my childhood I spent years volunteering at my Father's veterinary clinic, where I learned how to safely handle animals, recognize behavior cues, support stressed and sick pets, and assist with daily animal care routines. That experience gave me a strong understanding of animal health, patience, and the importance of building trust with each pet individually. In college I had the privilege to work as an Animal Ambassador Educator at the Sunset Zoo, where I cared for and handled a variety of animals while also teaching others about animal behavior, enrichment, and welfare through our ambassador animals. I also spent time working in a doggie daycare facility. This gave me experience supervising multiple dogs at once, understanding play styles and social behaviors, providing enriching activities, all while maintaining safe and structured care. What sets me apart is my combination of professional experience, education, and genuine love for all animals. I’m comfortable and confident with pets of different ages, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, including senior pets, shy animals, energetic pets, and those who need extra patience or routine consistency. I pay close attention to body language and behavior cues so pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. As a teacher, I’m attentive, organized, and communicative. I understand how important it is for pet owners to trust those caring for their furry family members. I treat every pet with the same care and love I would want for my own fur babies. As a high school teacher, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to each pet throughout the week and on weekends, especially during the summer months. During the school year, I’m available most mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends for visits, walks, feedings, playtime, and more. My schedule allows me to be dependable, communicative, and consistent so pets can maintain their normal routines and feel taken care for. I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable when they can stay in their familiar environment and routine. Because of that, I focus on providing attentive care in my clients’ homes through drop in visits, walks, playtime, enrichment, feeding, medication support if needed, and quality time. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. With my background in veterinary, zoo, and daycare settings, I’m experienced in reading animal behavior, recognizing stress signals, and adapting care to each pet’s individual needs and personality. I always prioritize secure handling, clean environments, routine consistency, and clear communication with owners. I also love keeping pets mentally and physically active. If desired, I’m happy to provide enrichment activities, outdoor adventures, walks, park visits, or extra exercise tailored to your pet’s energy level and comfort. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and currently care for my own pets, including a Great Dane, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I understand that every pet has different needs, whether that’s high energy playtime, slow walks for senior dogs, sticking to feeding and medication schedules, or simply giving them extra attention and comfort while their owners are away. I pride myself on being reliable, patient, and attentive to details so pet parents can feel confident their pets are safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m also comfortable with basic puppy routines, reinforcing good habits, and providing calm, gentle care for anxious or older pets. My goal is always to make pets feel as comfortable and at home as possible. I currently work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM–4:30 PM, but I do have an hour lunch break each day. For pets local to the Jefferson City area, I’m often available during lunch for potty breaks, walks, feeding, medication, check-ins, or just some extra love and attention during the day. Outside of work hours, I’m available mornings, evenings, and weekends for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care depending on availability. I always do my best to keep pets on their normal routine and make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I do my best to make both pets and owners feel comfortable, informed, and at ease. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and communication throughout each stay or visit. 🏡 Boarding your pet: I do have two friendly and playful dogs of my own — a Great Dane and a Goldendoodle — along with 3 cats that mostly keep to themselves. Because of this, I always like to make sure personalities and temperaments are a good fit for everyone’s safety and comfort. I also completely understand that not every pet is comfortable around other animals, and that’s okay! I have a partially finished basement that allows pets to be safely separated if needed while still being comfortable and cared for. My goal is always to create a safe, low-stress environment where your pet feels at home. 🐾 Pet sitting and drop-in visits in your home: I know many pets feel most comfortable in their own environment, so I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. Whether it’s feeding, potty breaks, playtime, medications, or simply providing companionship, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away. 🚶‍♀️ Dog walks: Safety is always my biggest priority during walks. I pay close attention to leash security, surroundings, weather conditions, and your dog’s comfort level to make sure they have a safe, enjoyable, and enriching walk every tim

About: I’ve always had dogs in my house since I was a kid. I love animals more than I love people, and I always find genuine connections with them! Since moving here, I’ve been trying to meet more animals! I am a part-time student, and I’m using this as a way to meet more pets in my area! I give all dogs lots of cuddles, ear scratches, massages, and lots of love! I am very accommodating to their needs, and I’m very flexible!

About: I love all animals and can’t wait to hear about or meet your furry family member . Allow me to look after your beloved pets, plants, home and many other things. If you need to be out of town or just need a little extra help with a high energy pet. Check my schedule and see if my services align with what you’re looking for.

Including but not limited to dogs, cats, rodents, reptiles, foul/birds, and minimal farm animals. However, every fur buddy or man’s best friend is unique. Let’s communicate on the needs or preferences for your special furry family member and see if I can accommodate. I appreciate your careful consideration. I can be flexible on scheduling and accommodations. Such as pick up/drop off, boarding, full day care, in home care, walks, vet visits and much more. Please be considerate of my time and cancellations and I will do the same respect. Thank you so much! I can’t think of any thing more wonderfully rewarding than to help you care for your furry loved ones. I currently am only caring for a few furry felines and small/medium dogs for close family.

“Jennifer was amazing. She was very thorough and detailed. She took very good care of our elderly dog. We felt secure in leaving our dog home alone knowing Jennifer would be checking in on her twice a day. We loved receiving daily pictures, the walking route, and details about each visit were carefully written. We would definitely use her again in the future!”
