Cat Sitting in Wildwood

“Colette is always very communicative and she has done a great job building trust with her thoughtfulness and care, making it easy for us to leave our fur babies with her! What would normally be very nervewracking having a stranger watch our animals has been so pleasant with Colette's accommodation and kindness. We will be using her services again in the future.”

About: I have had animals in my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, rodents, and even reptiles. I am currently training to become a dog groomer and I’m taking classes to get my vet tech certification. I have the experience and knowledge necessary to ensure your pets are safe, comfortable and happy with me. I am currently working part time so I have the availability to care for your animals without anything impeding my ability to keep a close eye on them. My house is a large space with a very large fenced in back yard. I have two dogs that are easy to get along with. I have animal gates I can secure if you’d prefer your pets to be separated from my two small pups. I have 3 bedrooms so I can even dedicate a room to just your animal so they have a private and comfortable space.

About: I believe the best thing about pet sitting is offering pets the same love and attention that their owners give them. I am easy going, very reliable and will follow all instructions for your pet’s care. I care for both domestic and farm animals. ❤️ I’m retired so my schedule is flexible. That makes it easier for drop in visits. When I stay over, I may need to leave for an errand but I will be at your home as expected. I respect your privacy and will care for your home like it is my own. I depend on repeat bookings so you can expect the best service!

About: I have had dogs and cats all my life, along with horses,chickens and goats. they are always treated like a part of the family and that's what is in store for your furry babies as well while in my care, I don't mind watching for the day or doing over nights. I plan to spend most of our day outside playing unless it's raining then of course potty breaks and drying, playing inside and cuddling on the couch.while I watch them I will brush them and for those shedders out there I will brush until I dont get any more hair hopefully minimizing in home shedding for you. because our pets are like family I don't mind giving text updates on how they are doing during the time that they are in my care. Please message me anytime I would love to watch your furry family member.I am also comfortable watching non house pets,I have horses and chickens and I've had goats,so if you have a farm that needs looking after,I'm your gale it's been a while since i've watched goats and cows so if they need milking I would need a refresher and if by some chance you have a less common pet like a alpaca or other I'm willing to be shown the ropes and will love to care for them,I really want to learn farm care,because having one of my own is something I've been interested in forever. December 18th I am going to become a stay at home mom. This means my son and I can watch your fur babies. any time day or night,with small amounts of time that I'm gone if during the school week to drop off and pick up my son. I won't be boarding just home sitting,I will treat your pet like my own safety and comfort for them along with lots of loves and attention.

About: Looking for more reviews? Check out Trusted House Sitters and search for my profile. I care for all living beings, but dogs are my go to when it comes to spending time and feeling at home in a world I choose. I've trained many breeds over the years and have heard various techniques. The older I've gotten the more formal the training I've received. All of which has been positive reinforcement training. I once went through a program that taught me how to train my own service animal. The techniques are very similar to the way I was during my early years when classes were not on my radar. My dog would simply go everywhere with me and learned how to behave in each setting without much effort at all. With the more formal training in recent years the fun part I find is desensitizing, shaping, training while playing, and having a great friend with me at all times. I do not claim to have had a ton of success reversing already spun habits. It's important to start pups young in many cases, though there are also many dogs that are easy going enough they can pick this up in no time. Whether you have a pet for the the home, all kinds, I will care for them as you do and I'll send you on your carefree way with full confidence. Boarding dogs at my house is limited to easy to manage temperaments and activity levels do to the fact our home is very small with hard wood and we have no fenced yard. My husband and I are both retired. I've recently lost my elder Irish Setter who spent most all his time with us. Now I have a Mini Poodle pup who's being trained to fill some pretty big shoes. So far it's smooth sailing! When going into others homes I simply follow their daily routines and instructions. My time is devoured to the animals. I rarely have things that would require me to shift focus. While at our house I make sure needs are met first, set the tone with rules of the house and have plenty of interactions with them through out the day. We take frequent walks and set up play time in the garage. I love the elders and yet can't pass up a puppy. I've not sat for cats in my home and would not feel comfortable doing so unless the owner knows something I don't know regarding their outings.

“Emily is great. She follows instructions, is friendly, and good with my rabbit. She arrives on time.”

About: I love all critters and have an especially soft place in my heart for the elderly and/or disabled. I started by volunteering for neighbors friends on trips or working 12 hours shifts, just to stay busy, and it was awesome to see how my daily visits helped their overall health over time. Visiting with critters is always the highlight of my day. I move slowly, carefully, speak softly, so my energy is a great fit for older or anxious animals. I love them all, and every step. Greeting, walking, playing, chilling, pets and massage, special diets, and I have no problem helping administer medicine or any extra special care that is needed. It would be an honor to be of service for you and your fur baby :) I am flexible and available, single, no kids, and also a home care worker. I only work 4 hour shifts, so pet care can very easily fit in and around my other work schedule. When I meet you and your pet, you can show me the care routine, and I will confirm that I understand every step. What works well is if the supplies are visible and steps are also written down and left somewhere I can refer to if needed. I will take photos to either text or email you while I am at your home with an update for each visit.

“Lily is awesome! She takes great care of Shy and Shy loves her. I always know Shy is in good hands when Lily is watching her. Lily keeps me updated with pictures and texts. She's 100 percent reliable and professional. I highly recommend Lily and grateful to have her watch Shy.”

About: There’s nothing I love more than animals! I have had and cared for them my entire life and have years of experience walking and feeding dogs, cats, and many other animals. I am reliable and can be flexible when needed. In my free time I volunteer at Greenhill animal shelter and have lots of experience with all types of dogs and their needs. I am currently a college student and have a pretty open schedule. I am always looking for ways to help out and love surrounding myself with animals. I am a very active person and love walking, hiking, trips to the beach, or just laying around keeping them company! I have classes and work but times vary for each. I follow rules and do everything that is asked, I leave everything as I came and pick up after myself. I ensure to always ask questions to avoid problems, better safe than sorry!

About: I have been a lover of animals my entire life. When I was a child I wanted to be a veterinarian and the first chapter book I remember reading was James Herriot’s All Creatures Great and Small. You would be hard pressed to find a childhood photo of me without a critter of some sort. Also as a weird little kid, I would hold funerals for the flies who had passed on in the window seals (an over abundance of empathy is probably my strongest albeit sometimes annoying trait 😂)! Animals make this world a beautiful place and I promise to show your babies the care and love the deserve. I am available evenings for drop ins and because I work in schools, I am available most holiday breaks for longer periods to care for your pets. I have a sweet Siamese boy and three young rescue sisters at home. They are spoiled and loved to bits! It’sa full house so I’m not looking to provide boarding services at this time.

“Kaylee was very accommodating and flexible. She gave great updates and took excellent care of our furbabies! Would definitely book with her again and highly recommend that you do the same!”

About: I love dogs and all animals, and take great care. I have a dog of my own and he’s my baby. I will love and take care of your baby like it’s my own! Lots of walks, with a big back yard and a park right down the street. Upon your rules they will get specific food, you can choose if they’re on the furniture or not, I can try to help train them too! I’m currently working a part time job and am open most days to work with you and your pups to get them their exercise and the card they need. I have the ability to take care of your baby’s in the safety of their own home. I have many years of dog care experience including time at a vet.
