Top rated Watauga cat sitters
“I was very impressed with Bijay and the level of care he provided our cat Pumpkin while we were away. Bijay is punctual, consitent and goes over and above expectation. Pumpkin is shy but Bijay & his wife were able to form a bond after only 1 day and would play with Pumpkin for at least a half hour. Bijay sent pictures and video during every visit to keep us in the loop. I would highly recommend Bijay to anyone who needs a pet sitter and I will be using him now every time I travel. 5 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟”
“I thought our meet & greet went well so I was impressed with her from the very beginning. It was easy to explain what I needed from her to care for Libby which was a big plus. Sarah also sent me nice updates & pictures which I really appreciated. I would definitely hire her again!”
“We would highly recommend Julieta! She was prompt each day and spent quality time with our Otis. We really appreciated her service and will be happy to ask her to sit for us the next time we travel.”
“Iman did an amazing job watching our cat while we were out of town. She followed all of our care instructions and went above and beyond to ensure our cat was comfortable. We also enjoyed reading all of her daily updates that were both informative and fun. We'll definitely be reaching out to her again for our next trip.”
“This was our first time hiring a pet sitter and Susan came and met with us and our cats before we even booked. We felt confident in leaving our cats in her care while we left for a week vacation. She took daily photos and took care of pet needs as well as getting our mail daily and taking out the trash cans. We will use her again”
“Sara is our go-to pet sitter and takes wonderful care of our dog and cats. She treats them with great care and respect for their individual personalities, her communication with us is fabulous, and we always feel confident in her skills as a longtime vet tech.”
“Meg was fantastic in caring for our 4 cats, along with a few other asks while we were out of town. The boys appeared to have a blast with the laser pointer and toys. Thank you for all your help Meg! I’ll definitely seek your help again in the future!”
“Our kitties loved Elizabeth! She's reliable and made sure they were set during a week of drop-in visits. We really appreciated the daily updates and pictures while on vacation I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again :)”
“Judi is fantastic! She takes excellent care of my precious cats. She even brings in my mail out of the mailbox at the street. I have had her care for my cats several times and I highly recommend her care.”
“Maci is our hero. On our first booking with her as a drop-in sitter, she proactively got our cat out of a less than ideal situation (our plumber had left an unhygenic mess in the bathroom thinking we were away and wouldn’t notice). Not only did she go above and beyond, she never complained or slackened her commitment to our cat. Anyone who takes action to protect animals in their care is a person to keep around. We’ll be booking again with Maci — no doubt.”
“Jennifer was willing to take care of my cat last minute when I got stuck across town with the snow. She was very informative and went above and beyond what was asked during her visit. Would definitely recommend and will use again!”
“Claire watched our cats again -- she's done it several times and we keep scheduling with her because she does such a wonderful job of taking care of them while we're away!!! Definitely recommend her services :-)!!!”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats and have owned many over the years. My family currently has one cat, one dog and a horse and I have looked after animals of all sizes-handling everything from daily feeding and grooming to exercise. I truly love animals and take pride in giving them the attention they deserve. Whether it's walking dogs, cleaning out litter boxes (or even horse stalls!), I care for every animal as if it was our own. I stay home and someone is almost always here. There are occasional days when I am fully booked or out of town but do my best to update the calendar. Dog walking, and drop in visits and offered. Boarding, right now, is reserved for small to medium dogs that are cat friendly. I prefer any special care needs to be written on a list somewhere accessible for us to make sure your pet gets everything they need!
“Camryn was super attentive to my cat and to the details of her needs during her check ins. She sent tons of photos and updates, and Ellie was in great spirits when we got back! Thanks for taking great care of our girl ?”
“Shannon went out of her way to care for my pets. When an ant problem came up, she handled it perfectly! Her communication was top notch. I recommend her highly and will request her again myself!”
