Cat Sitting in West Topsham

“Georgia stayed with my cat for 9 days recently. It was a huge relief to be out of the country and not worry at all about either my cat or my residence. She sent many photos of Sebastian. He was clearly a happy camper. The house was immaculate upon returning home. And I found an added bonus of yummy homemade lemon bars left for me in the frig! I'm looking forward to the next trip, as I really couldn't ask for a better situation.”

About: I have spent many overnights at homes while providing pet care. The durations of these stays have been up to a week. I do very well with following clear directions for feeding, medications, as well as other pet care needs. This includes affection and playing— I absolutely love dogs and cats! I am a teacher, which of course is a very busy job. However, I do not work over the summer, which means I have lots of flexibility in these months. I am also available during most weekends! I care for pets in my clients’ homes by following instructions regarding feeding, medications, going outside, as well as anything else that may be necessary! When owners are gone, I recognize it is best for the pets to keep their routines as consistent as possible! I respect any rules clients may have for their pets (e.g. where around they house they are allowed, any dietary limitations, and any necessary precautions to take so that the pets stay safe!)

“Kadyona was dependable and easy to communicate with. She took care of my two cats over five visits. My cats enjoyed having someone to spend time with them and give attention and playtime.”

About: I've been taking care of pets (cats, dogs, and rabbits) my entire life. One of my career highlights was working at the Philadelphia Zoo. Granted, I was working as a puppeteer, but I love being around animals every day. I currently have two beloved cats of my own, and I'm excited to meet your pets! I'm also a freelance puppeteer and writer - so when I'm between projects I have a very flexible schedule and will be happy to take care of your pets! I pride myself on being good with animals, love winning them over, and am a very empathic person. While I love a friendly creature, I'm also good at giving animals space if they're shy around new people, etc.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I’ve cared for both energetic puppies and older pets who need a slower pace and extra patience. I’m great at picking up on individual needs—whether that’s sticking to a strict feeding schedule, handling clean-up routines, or giving pets the one-on-one attention they deserve. I am free most weekdays after 3pm and open on weekends. I can guarantee you my undivided attention to your pets. I will make sure they are taken care of wonderfully. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean, and calm space with plenty of love and attention. I follow their routines carefully to keep things familiar and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the space, follow all instructions, and ensure their pet feels secure and cared for. Clear communication and gentle, attentive care help build trust every step of the way.

“Wow, what a treat it was to find Stephanie as a catsitter for my 2 cats! She was wonderful with my cats and very dependable! I would not hesitate to have her watch and care for my fur babies again! Thank you, Stephanie! ❤️😺😺❤️”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have been caring for them since I was a young girl. They’ve always been a part of my family, so I’m comfortable with everything from dog walking to pet sitting, feeding, and even bathing. Whether it's playing with puppies or giving extra attention to senior dogs, I want to make sure each pet feels comfortable and loved. My schedule is pretty flexible! During the week, I’m available after 5 pm, mostly for dog walks. On weekends, I’m free all day and can help with dog walking, pet sitting, house sitting, or whatever your pet needs. I don’t have any dogs at home right now, but your dog will be treated like part of the family! I focus on creating a safe and comfortable environment where your dog can relax, play, and enjoy their time. I make sure to follow your pet’s routine and give them the love and attention they deserve.

“Volha was an ideal pet sitter- easy to communicate with, and I felt secure that my kitten was in good hands while we were away for two nights! Highly recommend”

About: I am an animal enthusiast, anyone who knows me would agree. I own two large dogs and come from a family who did some amateur dog breeding, where I learned how to care for dogs from a young age. I used to work for a rescue and daycare, and have experience caring for up to 30 dogs of all sizes, as well as training and rehabilitating rescue dogs for basic commands. I am the go-to person for friends and family for pet care. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I work during the mornings currently, so I have availability for weekend and afternoon care after 2pm for local dogs. I am a grad student and will be on winter break from December 13-Jan 18 and would love to help out with your pets during that time. I am able to board or house sit for farther away pets while on break. I have a fenced-in yard at my house and I also own 20 acres for the trustworthy pups. At your home, I will keep the dog on leashes except for a fenced-in area or until I get to trust them off-leash if that is what the owner prefers. I will always follow the owners' rules for what thier dog needs!

About: Since as early as I can remember I have grown up with dogs, and other animals. I have experience in caring for dogs, cats, horses, and some exotic animals as well (small and large animals). I am always ready for a challenge and love spending time with any dog! I have experience in a variety of dog training areas including hunting dogs and service dogs. I am also a pre-veterinary student with basic animal care knowledge! I have worked with a variety of breeds ranging from retrievers and pointers to terriers and toy-breeds. I love working with dogs of all ages and am capable of caring for newborn puppies and your older furry friends! I also have over nine years of house-sitting and pet-sitting experience. Caring for pets is one of my passions so it is easy to make it a part of my daily routine, even while I'm working!

I supervise outside time, even if there is a fence and always keep them close!

“Bella and Cameron are such diligent and responsible cat sitters! They sent very cute updates and photos while we were out of town, about all the activities they were doing with our cat. We will definitely be booking with them again!”

“I was really nervous about leaving my 18 year old cat with someone else but Ariel put me completely at ease. She was so kind and caring with my cat and completely comfortable administering medication and following special feeding instructions. She also sent me great pictures of my pet each day and was very communicative about how things were going. When I arrived home my cat was content and well cared for. I would highly recommend her for any pet care situation. Thank you Ariel”

“Giuliana was so incredible! We last minute needed someone to drop in to see our very needy and social cat while we went to visit our families 8 hours away over Thanksgiving. Giuliana responded so quickly and not only was accommodating over the last minute holiday planning, but also drove to us about 40 minutes away to pick up the apartment keys and meet our cat. She also took such good care of him, sending me pictures and videos each day, and spending more time with him than we had asked - which was such a kind thing to do and made us feel so happy knowing he wasn’t alone for so long. Literally the best and we will definitely use her in the future!!”

About: Hello, I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and turtles. For the past four years, I’ve mostly been house-sitting/taking care of a good neighbor/friend turtle who I love dearly. I’ve put her to bed and cleaned her cage, along with feeding her while sitting with her for 3+ hours most days. I’ve learned to care for pets as if they are my own and love all animals. :)) Pet care is a vital and seamless part of my daily and weekly routine. Over the past four years, I have taken care of dogs, cats, and especially a neighbor's turtle, who I have grown to love dearly. Each day, I ensure that she is fed and her cage is cleaned, and I spend over three hours sitting with her, ensuring she feels loved and cared for. This routine has taught me to care for pets as if they were my own and deepened my love for all animals. Incorporating pet care into my schedule is crucial to me. I ensure my pet is happy and healthy, from morning walks to evening snuggles. Every activity, whether feeding, brushing, or playing, is an opportunity to deepen our bond and show my pets the love and attention they deserve. Balancing pet care with my other responsibilities, such as my involvement in ROTC at Norwich University for the past three years, has honed my discipline and time management skills. In addition to my ROTC commitments this summer, I am taking summer courses and have lacrosse practices. Despite these busy schedules, I always ensure that pet care remains integral to my routine, reflecting my dedication to their well-being. As a dedicated pet caregiver/Owner, my approach to pet care is tailored to the pet's needs and the environment. I prioritize creating a safe and nurturing space in my own home or while providing services for clients. This includes regular feeding schedules, enriching activities such as walks or playtime, administering medications if needed, and maintaining cleanliness through regular grooming and sanitation practices. Additionally, I strive to provide ample affection and attention to ensure each pet feels valued and loved, whether under my roof or in the comfort of a client's home.

“Emily took great care of my two cats while we were away. It's clear she really loves animals and they were very glad to see her each day. She sent pictures and gave me daily updates as well.”
