Cat Sitting in Westside

About: 1. Lifelong Dog Lover - Growing up around all kinds of dogs has helped me understand their needs and learn how to earn their trust from the moment we meet. 2. Belly Rub Specialist - Each dog gets one-on-one attention, with plenty of playtime and belly rubs to ensure they feel loved and spoiled. 3. AKC German Shepherd Expert - With two pampered honeys of my own, I know the ins and outs of caring for strong, loyal, and energetic dogs. 4. Bath & Grooming - I love making dogs feel fresh and fabulous, including bathing, nail clipping, and brushing. Who says a dog can't be pampered like royalty? (I do not cut their hair) 5. Training and Positive Reinforcement - From basic commands to advanced tricks, I focus on building a strong, positive relationship with every dog through fun and gentle training. 6. Endless Playtime & Adventure Planner - I'm all about high-energy fun! Whether it's fetch, tug-of-war, or sprinting until they're ready for a nap, I ensure your dog has a blast. 7. Water Fun Coordinator - On hot days, I organize water activities that keep pups cool, with lots of updates and pics for owners to enjoy. 8. Trust-Building Maestro - Dogs are my best friends, and I pride myself on forming bonds built on trust, play, and plenty of cuddles. I do have two other dogs in our home. Please refer to the pets section to review more information about them. Being a full-time caretaker, my days are never dull. But I wouldn't have it any other way! When I'm not busy managing lesson plans, at church, or planning the next family adventure, you'll find me spoiling the dogs with all the love and attention they deserve. I have plenty of space and time to care for your pup - whether it's offering a cozy stay in my home (must be crate trained), dropping by for a quick play session, dog walking (Although I much enjoy running with them), or giving belly rubs and treats at just the right times. I even offer pick-up and drop-off services for your furry friends. Caring for your pet fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I absolutely love making time for dogs. After all, who can resist those puppy eyes and wagging tails? At my home, your dog is treated like part of the family. With an acre of fenced-in land, plenty of grass, and trees to explore, two new furry friends they could play along with, they'll have a blast running around and enjoying the great outdoors. Inside, they're free to roam the house and join in on all the family fun when they're not relaxing in their crate after meals to let their bellies settle. I believe in a balanced routine that includes lots of playtime, comfort, and TLC. I take pet care very seriously, so when caring for your dog outside of my home, I always follow your lead. I stick to your instructions to ensure they're receiving the same level of care and attention they would at home. Whether it's feeding, playtime, or simply being their companion while you're away, I'm committed to giving you peace of mind, knowing your dog is in trusted hands. Health & Safety Policy – Skin Conditions & Vaccination Requirements To ensure the health and safety of all dogs in my care, I require all clients to provide up-to-date veterinary documentation confirming the following: • Vaccinations: Dogs must be current on the following vaccines: • Rabies • Parvovirus • Distemper • Bordetella (kennel cough) • Skin Conditions: Any dog showing signs of skin irritation, hair loss, or other dermatological concerns must have veterinary documentation confirming the issue is non-contagious (e.g., allergies rather than mange, mites, or ringworm). This policy is in place to protect all dogs in my care—including my own—and ensure a clean, safe, and healthy environment for everyone. Important: If I don’t receive these records before the booking, I’ll assume they are not current and the session will need to be cancelled. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

“Haley was OUTSTANDING! Not only is she a joy, but our Gracie girl loved her. Haley sent tons of photos every visit, loved on our girl, even cleaned up a hairball. She was highly communicative, sweet, and an amazing pet sitter. I will absolutely be using her again for our next trip!”

About: I've been around dogs and cats since I was about 12. I've had pets since I was 14. My first was a rescue Chihuahua. She was about 6 when I got her and had missing teeth. I'm currently unemployed and have all the time in the world to play with your fur babies 💟 indoors or outside. I love being cuddled by the fur babies. I will never leave your animals unattended. I send pictures and videos as often as you'd like. I will follow every rule you as the owner set in place.

About: I have been able to care for dogs from their whelping to their old age and death. I have cared for dogs with hip dysplasia, diabetes, and emotional disorders. I worked at a local animal shelter providing for the grooming, health, and play needs of local dogs. I am not currently working (I am studying for my NCLEX), and have loads of free time to look after and play with your smaller and furrier family members. Building trust is essential when working with animals, and I like to prioritize becoming familiar with the pet. Once that trust is established, I can better ensure the safety, health, and happiness of the animal. Dogs are incredibly smart and understand words and your tone of voice, both of which I am mindful of when interacting to maintain a productive relationship.

“Brooke was awesome with my fur babies. She did everything she was told to do. I was so surprised when she sent me pics of them. That made me so happy. She let me know when she was there an when she left. I think Brooke is great person. I will be using her again. Thx Brooke my babies loves you.”

About: I have taken care of animals of all shapes and sizes for 20+ years. I was also a groomer for 5 years and vet assistant. I'm quite comfortable with senior and puppy care,, giving medication and cleaning up any messes. I also have training experience with all variety, from basic commands to proper leash walking. Currently self employed, so I have a very open schedule and am able to accommodate quite a wide range of needs, from early morning to late night and weekends. Making your pet feel safe and comfortable while you're away is my number 1 priority. Giving them lots of stimulating play time, with lots of head and belly scratches

About: We've lived on a farm most of my life and we've had animals all my life. I currently have 2 pups of my own. A 11 year old English Shepherd Mix (Kai) and a 7 year old Miniature Long-Haired Dachshund (Riley). I lost my childhood dog Max (a Border Collie mix) from old age when he was 16.... I have trained all my dogs and not just the average leashing and commands but tricks too! I have also always done all the bathing, grooming and trimming nails. I absolutely adore dogs. I am hoping to turn this into a full time job. But am willing to start out with what I can get while doing a part time job. I will always try to make sure your fur baby is well taken care of, safe, comfortable and happy. So, there will be no need to worry.

About: I love me animals with everything! and i’ll make sure that your lovely animals will get all the love, care, and attention it needs while your away! I’m currently fixing to go into college so if you need me to take care of your lovely fur babies, I’m free anytime after 1! I have 3 puppies that absolutely LOVE to play so if your dog or pup need to play i’ve got you covered on that! I also have 2 older dogs that normally just hang out and often go play outside as well!

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and small animals since I was 6 years old. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, water, and take care of their pets on many occasions! I have a very flexible schedule rand can work with any pets. I do have 5 dogs me and my boyfriend own. They have a schedule of feedings and potty breaks but basically they just play all the time. They are all VERY playful and super friendly. I mostly would prefer to care for animals in my own home as I can do my daily tasks as well as keep your companions happy. I am more than happy to care for them in yours I just cannot stay nights. I have a big back yard so they can get lots of exercise and play time! If needed I can also separate my own animals from yours with no problem at all.

About: I've had dogs and cats and taken care of dogs and cat all my life. I've had experience with puppies, Rottweilers, Great Danes, German Shepherds, Blue Heelers, Herding breeds, and small and medium sized mixed, rescue dogs. I also have a baby of my own, his name is TikoMan, and he is an energetic, loving border collie. Tiko is very smart and knows all kinds of tricks that I taught him, he is a picky eater, gets lots of cuddles, loves to run and play, and goes on all the trips we take. He loves the water! I have experience teaching puppies tricks, dealing with multiple dogs and cats at a time, understanding their overall needs (based on breed differences as well), and handling senior dogs and cats that may need additional care needs, medications, and assistance. I'm currently looking for full-time pet care for your needs - available at any time! I have a 3 bedroom home with an acre worth of yard if you need me to sit in my home. I can walk your pets, sit in your home for you to make your pet(s) most comfortable, and adhere to any feeding schedules, play, cleaning, and other needs to keep them happy! I have a big home and yard (it is unfenced but your dog will be okay if able to be off leash, or I can make sure he/she is leashed for peace of mind. I will adhere to any feeding, walking, and other needs per requested schedules, and am available to come to your home if preferred as I understand many would like to watch cameras and make sure all is well with your fur baby!

About: I grew up on a 100-acre farm and have spent my entire life caring for animals of all kinds. My experience includes both everyday and medical care for livestock and household pets, giving me a strong understanding of animal health, behavior, and individual needs. I have implemented treat based training as well as clicker training with my own pet. Over the years, my family bred and raised both small and large dog breeds, ranging from Beagles to Great Pyrenees. This hands-on experience has given me confidence working with animals of all temperaments, sizes, and energy levels — from high-energy working dogs to elderly and disabled pets requiring extra patience and specialized care. Animal care has always been a true passion of mine. I believe animals are a gift to everyone they meet, and I am committed to providing compassionate, reliable, and attentive care to every pet as if they were my own. Pet care is my full-time profession, allowing me to provide reliable, flexible, and attentive care for every animal I work with. I also attend school virtually while completing my degree in therapy, which gives me the ability to maintain a consistent schedule dedicated to pet care. My long-term goal is to open a therapy practice incorporating equine-assisted therapy to help support and heal others through the connection between humans and animals. I prioritize providing care in my clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable and able to maintain their normal routines and environment. I believe staying in a familiar space helps reduce stress and anxiety while allowing pets to feel safe and secure. I take the time to follow each owner’s care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication administration, and any special needs. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care while treating both your pets and your home with the highest level of respect and professionalism.

“She was great! My dogs were well taken care of I highly recommend!”

“Hannah has stayed with our pets several times now and whether overnight or just dropping in she is very punctual, communicates proactively, and is a pleasure to work with.”

About: I have 15+ years of experience caring for cats and dogs of all breeds and personalities. As a former AKC conformation and lure coursing competitor, I’m confident handling everything from playful puppies to shy or reactive pets. I share my home with four cats, including rescues, so I understand animals with unique needs. I offer calm, patient, and reliable care—no breed or size restrictions, just a focus on safety, trust, and comfort. Most pets, if asked, would prefer to stay home rather than go to a boarding kennel while you are gone. They are in their own home, eating their familiar food from their regular bowl, playing in their own yard, sleeping on their favorite bed or couch. My goal as a pet sitter is to keep your pet healthy, happy, and safe so you can enjoy your time away from home. I visit your home at least twice a day, feeding, checking water bowls, petting and loving, supervising exercise and play time, and handing out treats. I am especially good with senior dogs and have experience getting even difficult dogs to take medications. I also do things like collect mail or newspapers and turn lights on and off so that it looks like someone is around. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work part-time and attend classes two nights a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility for daytime visits, walks, and overnight care. I plan my schedule around each pet’s needs, making sure they get consistent attention, exercise, and affection. Caring for animals is one of the best parts of my week—it’s grounding, rewarding, and something I truly enjoy. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and relaxed by maintaining their normal routines. In your home, I follow your feeding, walking, and playtime schedules closely and keep things calm for shy or anxious pets. In my home, animals have a quiet, supervised space, enrichment toys, and plenty of affection. Whether it’s medication, training, or extra snuggles, I tailor care to each pet’s personality and needs.

About: I specialize in senior care and have for over 20 years but I love all animals. I have taken care of other peoples furbabies for over 20 years. I have clinical knowledge of how to take care of them as well. I have a very flexible job, so I am able to take care of your pets and set my schedule around your needs. I’m flexible. I have a fenced in backyard. I have two dogs of my own who would love someone to play with and i can crate your dog if needed.
