Cat Sitting in West Bass Lake

“Could not be more thankful for how smooth our walk in visits were with Sandy. Eased our minds completely knowing they were well taken care of! Would 100% book again.”

Sydni C.

“Nicole did a great job dropping in to visit my puppy, Luna, during the day while I was at work. Nicole did drop-in visits for several months, and she was always on time and was super easy to communicate with, even if I had to cancel last minute. I highly recommend Nicole for drop-in visits!”

Maddie L.

“Christina was absolutely amazing! She made the time to come meet my dog prior to the drop in and she listened to all of my care details and was very thorough and enthusiastic! She sent a great note after the drop in and made sure to take photos for me so I could see he was doing well! Will be using her regularly!!!”

Alycia C.

“Matthew did a great job with his drop in visits with Archie while I was working and my husband was away. Matthew was very timely and great at communicating. Archie enjoyed his time with Matthew and I look forward to booking him again!”

About: I am a father of four, ages 4- 10 and work in healthcare. I’ve always cared for animals. We currently have a dog, cat, two guinea pigs, and a bearded dragon. I maintained a fresh water fish tank for over a decade and loved it. I enjoy spending time with animals a great deal, it brings me peace. I’m a full time dad and work part time at a hospital so I’m home a lot. My kids and I have a nightly routine for cleaning and feed our guinea pigs and bearded dragon. My dog is very sweet and her and the cat are best friends. Because I have four kids, there is no shortage of attention for our pets. I have reliable transportation and a pretty open schedule. 3 of my kids are in school during the day and my youngest is in preschool. I take my dog for a walk every day on our quiet street. I have a fenced in back yard and our property is heavily shaded.

“Olivia did an amazing job with our skittish cat. It takes a lot for him to warm up to people, and he clearly liked her — which says a lot. She was responsive, followed all directions, sent updates and pictures, and was very friendly. We felt completely comfortable while we were away and would absolutely use her again. Highly recommend!”

Jeremias L.

“Adara was absolutely wonderful with Javi and Tamale! From the start, it was clear she genuinely cares about the dogs in her care — she was attentive, gentle, and really listened to everything I shared about their needs and routines. The regular updates she sent gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I came home to two happy, relaxed pups, which says everything. We will 100% be booking with Adara again — highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your pets like her own!”

About: I currently have a 3 year old mini Australian shepherd. My experience includes watching a puppy overnight, helping train a deaf dog, and taking neighbors dogs on walks. I am a teacher so I am available all of June-August to provide all day care for dogs or just walk dogs during the day. I have a friendly dog to keep your dog company. I also live within walking distance of a bike trail to make sure your dog gets daily walks.

“Amy did a great job! She sent pictures daily and made me comfortable.”

About: I have owned 3 dogs and a cat in my life. My fiancée and I currently own a Siamese cat that we adopted from the OKC Animal Shelter. We previously fostered two kittens. I'm reliable, accountable, and punctual! And above all, I am CPR certified for both humans and animals. You can count on me! I'm currently working part-time, but I will definitely try to work around your needs! I am open to any and all animals! Let me know what availability you have and we can work with that! I do have a cat crate and some cat treats and toys. I do also have dog treats and chew toys. I am very gentle and know how to approach animals in a way that does not make me appear threatening and will earn their trust.

About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience and genuine care for animals. I had my own pets until I was 17, and I’ve also cared for my family’s pets during week-long trips, which gave me experience with daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure they stayed comfortable and happy. I’m currently home from college and working remotely with a flexible schedule, so I’m available at any time during the day as long as I’m given advance notice. For dog walks and drop-ins, I make sure each pet is safe, comfortable, and getting the attention they need. During walks, I focus on keeping dogs active, following any routines the owner prefers, and making sure they stay hydrated and safe. For drop-ins, I can feed pets, refill water, give them playtime, let dogs out for bathroom breaks, clean up after them if needed.

“We don't have a dog, but we do have 2 cats, a tropical fishtank, and backyard chickens. We reached out to Paula for check-in services over a long weekend trip we were so pleased. She had excellent communication right from the start, including special instructions for our little pet family, and she reached out politely in advance to remind me about some last minute details that I still hadn't confirmed with her. During the visits she took pics of the crew and gave an update both nights. (This was good, because Gizmo mewed that he didn't even get any food OR attention all the whole time, but I had photographic proof! Nice try, kitty!! You know how they are :) :) :) ) We will use Paula again! Thanks, Emily.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs ever since I was old enough to. I grew up with German Shepherds and have spent years training, loving, and looking after them. Beyond my own pets, I’ve also cared for the animals of friends and neighbors. I’ve been around animals my whole life, and giving them love and attention has always come naturally to me. Pet care is my full-time focus right now, so I have plenty of availability to give your pets the time, attention, and care they deserve! I have a large yard where dogs can enjoy outdoor time with plenty of space to roam. For safety, I use a secure tie-out stake and lead, so your pet can play while staying within a safe area under my supervision. Pets stay indoors overnight in a cozy, clean environment where they’ll feel safe, loved, and cared for like family!

About: I have grown up around animals and when I was 6 years old my family adopted our first dog. Since then, I have understood the importance around having an animal in your life, yet also the responsibility it brings with it. At the age of 12 I joined my sister in her dog walking business. Each day we would walk our neighbors dogs after school whilst making sure they went potty and were properly cared for via instructions given to us. As we grew older we started to watch them over night on weekends, and go with our neighbors to places where they needed help with their dogs. Dogs are not just pets…they are family. I have used that time as a dog walker to grow my own personal experience watching other families pets. I have since watched one family’s two dogs for three summers in a row due to the amount of trust and loyalty I have built with them. I can take care of any type of dog that you may have. Small, medium, large; young, adult, senior. It does not matter to me. I love them all and would enjoy watching as well as taking care of them. I am currently working part-time at Kent State University as a Graduate Assistant. The most time I spend in my office is about 4-6hrs per day. On the weekends I am home in Chardon. I will be able to accommodate your animals needs if needed on the weekends, and during the week. I will be home for the summer, but I will be moving down to the Kent area in the fall I always make sure that I meet the dog before I ever start taking care of them. As for walks, I would be sure to give them love before and after long walks. If I were to stay with them, I would ensure the pet and I would have time to play, go potty and a walk, as well eat dinner together so a bond and trust would be built. The pet would stay at their house so they wouldn’t be scared in a new setting.

“Appreciate Kelly’s care for this our fur babies.”

About: Hello! My name is Shawntel and I have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family had 2 dogs and 4 cats. Now I have three dogs that I couldn't imagine my life without them, with two of them being rescues. When I’m booked for house/dog sitting, my dad gets to stay and spend time with his grand-pups (: One is a German Shepard mix, another one is a Pitbull, Husky, Lab mix, and my newest addition is a golden doodle! The German Shepard is a senior so I am used to making accommodations for animals as well as giving mediations. It doesn't matter if they are young or old, big or small, boy or girl-- I love them all. I am currently a first grade teacher in Lake County which I recently took time away from dog sitting to focus on my new position. But now I’m back!! So I am available before and after the school day during the week for your animals and pretty free on the weekends. I am usually pretty flexible so if you need anything special for your animal, just let me know! I also dedicate my summers and school breaks to house/dog sitting! I truly believe that a well taken care of animal is a happy one, and who doesn't want their fur baby happy?! I look forward to meeting you and your sweet animal(s)!!

I know animals feel most comfortable in their own home so I mainly watch animals in the clients home. I do my best to give them the love and attention you give them while you are away.

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover; I have cared for my own pets most of my life, and did my first ever (non-family) pet sitting job when I was about 12 years old. I have experience with dogs, cats, and a variety of farm animals. My husband and I currently have a dog and cat indoors, along with a pair of cats and fifteen ducks outside. My current pup, Abby, has taught me a lot about dog body language and behavior, so I'm better equipped than ever to interact with anxious dogs. I work full time, but can still provide house sitting services if you're comfortable with me being away during the day Monday-Friday, and can provide drop in and walking services early mornings/evenings during the week. Most weekend days I can be available all day. I'll be sure that I have and understand any instructions you have for your pets to ensure that they get the care they expect and deserve. I've also just completed a PetTech first aid and CPR class to be sure I'm able to keep your pets as safe as possible.

About: Since I was 11 years old putting dog walking flyers on my neighbors porches, I have always had a passion for taking care of animals. I still have people contacting me to cat or dog sit for them, and they love to recommend me to their friends. I love animals, and I know how to handle them safely and responsibly. From working with horses to dolphins, I have been around many different animals. I have owned reptiles and guinea pigs as well as dogs and cats, I have been working with and riding horses since 2018, and every summer since around 2020 I have gone to the Florida Keys and learned about training dolphins, I have aged out of that program now. I also volunteered at an animal shelter when I was younger. I am looking for a job to use my skills with animals. I work at a veterinary practice for a large animal veterinarian currently on Wednesdays and Fridays. I am looking for another job that I can work on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. I can also do weekends if you are looking for someone who will stop by and take care of your animal for 30 minutes to an hour, but I like to have time on my weekends to spend with my loved ones, so the activities that take longer I would like the save for weekdays. I promise to love and take care of your animal as if it is my own until their favorite person comes back! I have my own reliable transportation, I can take your dog to a dog park if it is dog friendly, or I have a lot of land at my house. I also could take it to any walking paths. I know how to handle animals of all temperaments, and I am a good communicator and will keep you updated. I would love the opportunity to take care of your animal! I work at a veterinary practice part time on Wednesdays and Fridays and I generally start early in the morning around 7, and it’s a 40 minute drive. My hours can vary but I’m usually done sometime before 4pm. I can do drop by visits on those days early in the morning and after 5pm. On Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, I can do dog walking, dog sitting, or doggy day care at my house! Anything that generally takes a decent amount of time I can do on those days. On the weekends, I can do house visits for 30 minutes to an hour, but I would like to keep my weekends open as much as possible to spend time with friends and family and go to the barn. I have my own cat as well as 4 other cats, an english bulldog, and a french bulldog owned by my boyfriend’s family that I live with. I generally feed and take care of my cats and the other cats, but I used to pet sit for them and took care of their dogs as well. As far as caring for animals in my own home, I live on 8 acres of land, some of which is a field blocked off by tree line that would be a perfect place to play. I also have a fenced in concrete and grass area for the dogs to use the restroom. I have crates in my house where I can separate dogs if needed. I also know of lots of places to walk dogs, and live by a couple of dog parks. As for care in a clients home, I have lots of experience. I can do litter boxes, feed and water animals, and give enrichment and treats if requested by the owner. I can also let dogs outside on leash, or in a fenced in backyard. I’d rather be safe than sorry, so I avoid taking a dog off leash if they do not have a fenced in or secluded area. I can take them on walks around your neighborhood as well. I am also willing to take care of exotic animals or livestock, as I have plenty of background in that as well.
