Cat Sitting West Gate

“Mary did a wonderful job with Sophia! She even got our shy kitty to actually come out of hiding and stare at her. I think if Mary had visited a few more days, Sophia would have finally sniffed her! We would definitely hire her again!”

“Courtney was so attentive and accommodating, she updated me every day, took a bunch of pictures, and just overall communicated very well. Would definitely recommend and rebook her.”

“Keira was wonderful. She took care of my cat and followed all the instructions carefully! I also received lots of photo updates.”

“Maddy was awesome!!! She took care of our cat as her own. She has a special touch because our cat doesn’t like anyone, but she accepted Maddy as part of the family. I will use Maddy again and I highly recommend her. She is professional and trustworthy.”

“Hailey was amazing and took such great care of my dog while I was away. She was very responsive which i really appreciated and sent pictures whenever she got the chance. I highly recommend her. Thank you so much Hailey for taking good care of karma for me!”

“This was our first time booking with Selina. We had a meet and greet prior to the sitting time. And, we knew at that time that she was the sitter for us. During our time away, Selina kept us informed and sent pictures. She even had a sighting or two of one of our kitties who normally hides from the world when we are away. Selina cleaned up after the cats eating sessions and kept our flowers alive. All of our cats were very happy in Selina's care and we will be booking again. Thank you Selina!”

“Kelly was amazing with our kitties during the whole time she watched them. My husband and I knew we were leaving our cats in good hands from the meet and greet. She didn’t knock to avoid scaring our cats which we appreciated. Each visit she did a detailed report card and sent cute pictures of our cats. Our one cat is very skittish and cautious around new people but she won him over within a day and had him following her around. She even brought in one of our packages and made sure to refill the cat’s food container. We also know our cats got plenty of playtime as well. We will continue to use her when we need a sitter. 😊🐱❤️”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 12, so caring for them has always been a big part of my life! I’m comfortable with dogs of different personalities and love making sure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved. I’ll treat your dog like my own and give them plenty of care, attention, and affection! I’m currently a full time therapist working hybrid, so I am able to fit time with pups in around my schedule with my clients! I have a fenced in yard and a corgi named Pudge, who would love to join your pup on a walk for some extra play!

About: Hi, I've loved animals my whole life and I'm now a mom to two australian shepherds and three cats! My pets are my babies and they are such an important part of my life. I'll care for yours just like I would my own. Having two energetic aussies has taught me a lot about a dog's physical and mental needs. I've attended regular dog training classes for a year where I learned more about obedience, agility, trick training, and mental enrichment games. I'd love to do some of that with your pups too! Whether it's practicing basic commands, playing scent games or just playing fetch I'm happy to adapt to what your dog enjoys most! I'm a big believer in positive reinforcement and I'd be happy to use treats for rewards with your permission of course! Just let me know if your pet has any allergies or dietary restrictions. I'm also familiar with leash reactivity on walks and understand how important it is to respect each dog's boundaries and comfort level. I'm used to pets who are a little more nervous or anxious around strangers, having rescued feral cats and adopted a rescue dog myself! I totally understand that some fur babies need a little extra patience and I always give them the time and space they need to feel comfortable. I've volunteered at several animal rescues in different places I've lived, taking care of both cats and dogs of different age, breed and needs. I recently moved to the area and would love to continue caring for them in my own way! I love getting to know each pet's little quirks and personality. Whether your fur baby is full of energy or prefers taking things slow, I'll do my best to make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and cared for! I've also had experience caring for rabbits, rodents, cockatiels, and horses, so let me know if you need help with any other pets too. My dream is to basically live on a farm surrounded by animals someday. You can also expect plenty of pictures and updates while you're away. I know how meaningful they are! I'm currently home full-time so my schedule is very flexible, even for last-minute requests. Your pets will always be my priority and I'll do my best to match your schedule. I'm available on weekdays and weekends, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I'm a bit of a night owl so late night drop ins and walks are totally fine with me too. I love spending time with animals and I'll work around your pet's routine as much as possible! As a helicopter mom, I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets in someone else's care, especially when they have their own little habits and quirks. I'll always do my best to adapt to their personality and follow all your instructions. Please feel free to give as many details as you'd like. I'm also happy to administer medication if needed! I'm pretty careful about keeping doors closed and paying attention to my surroundings during walks with the dogs. My focus will be on your pets 100% of the time when I'm with them.

“Blain is the sweetest & was great with our kitties!”

About: I will make any animal feel loved and at home when you can't be there. I have taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, and more. I am recent college graduate with a hybrid work so I have lots of flexibility. I am happy to help you and your animal find the care you need and deserve. My schedule is fairly open with my biggest commitment being my at hybrid work. I get up early every day and am a night owl- able to take your animals out, make sure they're fed, and of course provide them with the needed attention. I am most available after mid morning during week days, but we can work together to figure out what your animals needs! Weekends are very open! I am here to provide some, care, and attention to your pals! I am a gentle caretaker who doesn't believe in physical discipline, and only positive reinforcement.

About: I have been pet sitting on and off since I was 12. I love animals of all kinds and my husband is a veterinarian, so I get to hear about animals on a daily basis and I want to put some of that knowledge to use. I currently work full-time remotely, so I am free all during the day to walk dogs or to house/dog sit, as long as there is WiFi, I can work anywhere! I am happy to dog walk or dog/house sit! Whatever is most convenient for you, I am willing to make it work! Once I get to know your pet, I know we’ll be best friends!

“Ryley was an excellent sitter for my cat over the holidays! She sent plenty of pictures updates and cleaned up my apartment prior to the stay ending. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life. I currently have 3 dogs and 5 cats - a true crazy cat (& dog!) lady! Out four legged friends are not pets, they’re family and I treat them as such! I am currently available on weekends and some evenings during the weekday to do drop-ins, playtime, snuggle time, or walks with your dogs or cats! I am available to come let your pups out, keep them company, play with them and take them on walks! I will treat your furry family member with love, care, and respect.

“Youngjin did a great job taking care of my kitties over the weekend. He was very responsive and I appreciate the flexibility when my dates changed a few times.”

About: I have been pet sitting since I was 11! I've taken care of various animals of all different sizes, breeds and ages, including, dogs, cats, small critters (guinea pigs, hamsters), and even horses! I understand it is important to get the best care possible for your family member and it takes a lot of trust! I am currently a graduate student at George Mason, so I have lots of weekend availability to play with your pet while you run errands or go on a quick weekend trip! Safety is of utmost importance to me and I will always ensure that your pet is as safe as possible. I have experience with crates for both cats and dogs if needed and will always be sure to check in about any safety concerns regarding your pet.

About: We’ve both grown up around dogs and have always loved being around animals. Robin has dogs of his own, and Macy has both dogs and cats and has cared for pets for most of her life. Macy also has professional experience working as a kennel attendant, where she cared for dogs of all different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. We’re comfortable with different routines and needs, and we always make sure every pet gets plenty of love, attention, and care while they’re with us. 🐾 Hi! We’re Macy & Robin, a couple who both love animals! Macy is the primary sitter, and Robin joins her for some bookings to provide an extra set of hands and even more love and attention for your pets. We love spending time with animals and getting to know all their different personalities. Macy is currently in school working toward her Master Esthetician license, so she has a pretty flexible schedule throughout the week. We’re both reliable, respectful, and will make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in our care. We’re also happy to send plenty of pictures and updates! 🐾 I have a fenced in backyard along with a crate, although I would prefer not housing at my house because of other pets living there.

About: My name is Nadine, i simply love pets! I am a cat person as much as i am a dog person! I am very flexible whenever you need,you just need to contact me in advance! I am more of a pet person than a human person! I would be very happy if you contact me so I can take care of your dog whenever you are away or busy! Your dog will be in safe hands, no need to worry at all! I am available both on weekdays and weekends, in the middle of the day and in the afternoon as well! Just text me an hour a head and I will be there right away! I currently work full-time! However, I usually work remotely on Tuesdays and Fridays so I can always watch your pet on those days, or also during the weekend! I live in an apartment building that has two dog parks attached to it. We are also right next to huge soccer fields and plenty of walking/ running space if your dog needs to go for a walk!

“Melianna was awesome! She was very professional and responsive and was great with our cat. Highly recommend using her!”

About: We’re a husband-and-wife team with a lifelong love of animals and years of experience caring for both dogs and cats—especially rescues. We’ve worked with anxious and reactive pets, administered medications, and provided the extra attention they need to feel safe and comfortable. Our own family includes a 65lb rescue Foxhound and a rescue tabby cat, so we understand the quirks and joys that come with rescue pets. Audrey works from home full time, and Shane is a teacher, which means we have a flexible schedule and your pets won’t be left alone. We’ll make sure they’re happy, healthy, and loved like our own. Audrey works from home full time and Shane is a teacher, so someone will be home with your pet at all times. We make it a priority to follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. Our typical day looks like this: 6–7 AM: Wake up, potty break in the yard, and breakfast 12–1 PM: 45-minute walk 4–5 PM: Playtime in the yard, potty break, and dinner 8–9 PM: Final potty break in the yard before bedtime For dog boarding: Our dog loves meeting and playing with other dogs, so your pup will have a built-in playmate. Our cat will always be kept in a separate room to ensure everyone’s comfort. Since Audrey works from home full time and Shane is a teacher, your dog will always have company and supervision. For cat boarding: Your cat will enjoy a private guest room set up just for them, complete with a litter box, cat tree, toys, and all the comforts they need. To help them feel secure, one of us will spend time in the room during the day—often working from there—so they’ll have companionship and attention throughout their stay.
