Cat Sitting in Whitpain Hills

About: My pet care experience goes far beyond simply loving animals. I have cared for cats, dogs, fish, horses, small mammals, and wildlife, and I recently earned my M.S. in Wildlife Science. I have worked as a dog walker, a pet/house/plant sitter, an animal research technician caring for mice, rats, rabbits, and dogs, and as a veterinary assistant at a cat and dog vaccine clinic. I also have experience drawing blood and administering medication to a variety of domestic and wildlife animals, so I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and paying close attention to each animal’s needs. I am very much a cat person, too, and I understand that cats have different needs than dogs, including patience, quiet companionship, respect for boundaries, and careful attention to subtle changes in behavior. I am patient, reliable, and attentive to animal behavior, and I enjoy helping pets feel safe, whether they need a good walk, playtime, calm companionship, or plenty of cuddles. I currently work remotely part-time, which allows me to maintain a very flexible schedule for pet care. I am available for dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, pet sitting, and plant care throughout the week. While I am not able to provide boarding in my own home, I am happy to provide overnight care in your home so your pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment. I prioritize safety, trust, and consistency by carefully following each client’s instructions and keeping pets in their familiar routines as much as possible. In a client’s home, I make sure doors, gates, leashes, food, medications, and household rules are handled with care. I also pay close attention to each pet’s body language, comfort level, and behavior, and I provide calm, respectful care that helps them feel secure while their owner is away.

“My little lady was in great hands with Brittany! She sent me pictures and gave her the love I couldn’t! Highly recommend Brittany!”

“Jonathan completed all our scheduled visits including on a holiday and when a winter weather advisory was issued, and we're grateful for that. Our birds (who admittedly fear new people and have a history of abuse/neglect in previous homes) were hesitant maybe of his height and how fast some of his movements were, but he was kind. I think his energy level is likely a great match for dogs and extroverted or high energy level pets. Jonathan thoroughly read and referred back to the notes we wrote about our routines, which is a great sign of care.”

“I really appreciate Si Yeon for being so understanding. They look so happy and I really appreciate the updates. One of our fur babies is somewhat difficult (even the vet techs have a hard time giving him medications. But, I don’t know how, but she did it!”

About: I had 3 dogs of my own over the years. I have done dog sitting, walking, and driving to daycare and grooming for my neighbors and friends. I’m currently working part-time but I am an empty nester so I have a very flexible schedule to play and take care of your pets. I will follow the owner’s instructions on how they would like me to care for their pet while in their home and outside their home.

“Mikaela is so wonderful with Finn. This was the first time and he loved her. We felt very comfortable leaving him with her. She’s great! He wants to know when she’s coming back to play!”

“Brooke was fantastic! :) Always showed up on time and sent pictures and updates while catsitting for us. She was also always super easy to reach and made sure to leave things how she found them. 10/10 we'd definitely book her again!”

“I cannot recommend Blythe highly enough. My dog, Bodog, is currently recovering from surgery, and she has been absolutely incredible throughout the process. She responded to my request immediately at 7am and was able to come the very same day at 4pm. Her communication was excellent from start to finish, and the photo updates gave me complete peace of mind while Bodog was in her care. It was clear she treated him with genuine compassion, patience, and attention during a very important time in his recovery. I truly could not have been happier with the care she provided, and I look forward to continuing to work with her as Bodog heals. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone dependable, professional, and caring.”

“Meghan was amazing! Reliable, caring, and very attentive. She made sure everything was taken care of and gave our cats great company while we were away. We came home to happy cats and a clean space. Highly recommend her!”

“I’m so thankful at how well Allison watched over our kitty Pico. She gave him lots of love, helped him get comfy with her even though he’s usually a pretty shy cat, and kept him happy, fed and hydrated while we were away. Thank you again Allison!!”

Jessica Z.

“Amazing care. When we arrived home, our boys could not stop talking about how much fun they had with Lacey. She even sent us a picture of Lewis playing inside his favorite toy. Next time we go away, we had to promise Henry and Lewis we would call Lacey to take care of them. Thank you Lacey🐱”

About: I have taken care and loved all ages of dogs my whole life. From owning them to watching the neighbors and friends. I have also worked in a professional setting for about 5+ years and have had experience caring for all different breeds and their specific individual needs. In addition, I have training experience with Penn Vet Working Dog Center as well as some classes I attended at a training school! I’m grateful for all the experiences I’ve had and all the ones waiting to be had! I have currently care for 3 different types of animals (cat, gecko, and turtle!) I did have a dog as well however she sadly passed recently. I am able to crate dogs as well as provide medications and keep up with dietary restrictions. I am able to walk as well as play and spend time with the pups! For cats I am able to scoop litter and give as many or as little cuddles as the cat may enjoy! I’m good with feeding as well as administering meds to cats

About: I’ve had animals of all kinds throughout my life. From the moment I was born I had an older dog brother! As I grew into adulthood I really had a fondness for cats and now I love them just as much. We’ve also had a few tank mates along the way! My family and I treat any animal babe as they are our own. Nice to meet you! ❤️ I’m a stay at home mom with a spouse, little boy, and baby girl. Your pet will have 24/7 care. I always guarantee fresh food, water, playtime and lots of love. I currently don’t have any furry friends anymore. My schedule is open during the day. Only thing I do regularly outside my home is the gym and groceries. Whatever needs your pet has I can accommodate! Your baby will have space for food, toys, and anything else that will make them feel at home. They can sleep wherever they like. I live in a two floor condo. If they don’t want to hang downstairs they can always play fetch upstairs in my master bedroom. There’s open areas outside in my development they can play as well.

“Brittany was amazing! Basqui was in great hands and I can tell she enjoyed her company when I returned. She had great communication, was punctual and shared pictures throughout her time with Basqui. I would highly recommend Brittany.”

About: I’ve grown up with animals my entire life, including several dogs and cats. Caring for them has given me hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playtime, and providing lots of love and attention. I am currently employed full time Monday - Thursday but am available after work most days. I am available all day Friday, Saturday, and Sunday! I have experience caring for both cats and dogs of all sizes, breeds, and behavioral tendencies. I have grown up with multiple pets and am comfortable with feeding, walking, administering basic care, and providing a safe, loving environment for every animal.

“Liz was great! We were able to easily communicate and plan out the visits. They stopped by to get a key ahead of time and I was able to show them the lay of the land. Our kitties don’t usually like to come out for strangers but all three were out! This was our first Rover experience and Liz made sure it was great!”
