Cat Sitting in Willardville

“Hayley is the epitome of a great dog sitter. I have 2 difficult pups and from the moment she walked up she went above and beyond to gain their trust. She is very communicative. Sending lots of pics and updating me on when she got there, what the pups did and when she was headed out. Definitely will be using her for drop ins and overnight stays!”

About: **Update** I have transitioned since opening this account and unfortunately at this time Rover does not allow me to update my name or other information. I go by Eli now. This in no way impacts the care I will give your animals but I want to respect peoples right to make informed decisions about who they allow in their homes. I will not tolerate hateful comments or behavior directed towards me however. I have been around animals my whole life big and small. I attended the Tarpon High School's Veterinary Assisting program and graduated as a certified veterinary assistant. Since then I have worked with horses, dogs, cats, pigs, birds and a few rodents. I do lots of training with my own high drive dogs and would love to bring some fun trick training, puzzles and general enrichment to your dogs life! I am currently working a full time day job so my availability is restricted to evenings and weekends at this time. I would love to give your dogs some extra attention during your busy weekends or weeknights. I am a safety freak! I double check all collars and harnesses for proper fit before leaving the house. For fenced in backyards I always double check that gates are latched before lettings dogs out. I will make sure any toys are size and age appropriate and do not pose any danger to your dog. My dogs are my family and I will treat yours with the same love and care.

“We love Ayana! She is so thorough and wonderful with each visit and she takes the best pictures of our puppy:)”

“Randy showed patience and kindness to my grumpy cat. I can tell that he loved playing with Randy. Randy was respectful of my property and time. I will definitely rebook him in the future and recommend him to my friends.”

About: As someone who is hardworking and detail-oriented, I feel that I am up to the task of caring for all kinds of pets. From a young age I've worked with dogs, cats, small rodents, and even horses! Some even call me the "animal whisperer." Grooming, walking, playing, feeding, providing fresh water regularly, giving medication orally or with food, overnight stays, and cleaning up after animals are some of the tasks I've performed throughout my time caring for these beloved fur friends. I'm free every day of the week, preferably any time after 10 AM but also willing to negotiate times of care that fits both you and your pet's needs! I make sure to respect other's property and belongings when housesitting or petsitting for pet parents. Keeping spaces clean, tidy, and how I found it is something I find to be important when given the trust of others to be in their spaces. I'm always willing to learn and adapt to your pet's needs, environment, and behaviors.

About: Hi! My legal name is Diana, but I prefer to go by Joey. I grew up with pets of all kinds, and have been pet-sitting for over ten years. I began in my neighborhood when I was in middle school, and over the years, I became well-acquainted with my neighbors and their pets. Several continue to hire me to this day. I have experience with dogs, cats, and many exotic species. I'm particularly fond of reptiles and have a leopard gecko. I am patient and calm, so elderly and shy animals tend to do well with me. Respecting an animal's boundaries (while ensuring they are properly taken care of) is very important to me. Most recently, I worked with Pet Butler and received over twenty 5-star reviews while employed by them. I do freelance work from home and make my own schedule, so I can accommodate my clients easily. When house-sitting, I spend the majority of my time in the client's home, prioritizing that pet's schedule while doing other drop-in visits during the day if possible. I offer drop-in visits and house-sitting at my client's home. I am very detail-oriented and read instructions before each job, regularly referencing them while getting to know the routine. Safety is very important to me, so for any pet visit, there are some basic protocols I follow. I do not use retractable leashes and keep a spare in my car in case a client does not have a standard leash.

“Anita was perfect! She was so easy to work with and took great care of my two cats for the week I was gone. She went above and beyond what I asked of her and made sure my babies were well loved and taken care of. I would 10000% recommend her services, she’s the best!!!”

“Sarah was a great sitter for our two cats, fish and gecko! Our meet and greet was a pleasure, she was always prompt with messages and very understanding & adaptable about our cat’s grumpy demeanor. I would definitely book with her again!”

About: Have had at least 1 pet for over 25 years. Wife and I are recent empty nesters that went from having 4 cats and 2 dogs to a Lab and 1 cat when the last of our 4 kids moved out. We love all animals and will treat them like our own. I am a public school teacher, so I am fortunate enough to have summers off. So my availability is very open even a short notice. We have a dog park for them to play at our place. Our Labrador Bailey will be put in crate until they get acquainted if needed. Bailey is friendly as can be, however I know animals can get nervous in new environments. If coming to your residence I will request and do’s or dont’s to ensure your animal is taken care of up to your expectations and above. I am a public school teacher, so I am fortunate enough to have summers off. So my availability is very open even a short notice. Love all animals and will freaky all animals as if they are my own. We would be honored to treat your animal to a nice vacation as you enjoy yours. My wife and I are retired and have a very flexible schedule. We are happy to accommodate any requests or special needs you may have. We cater to each individual animals personality. We try to maintain and provide care as close to wider the animal is used to in a daily basis in order to minimize any stress.

About: I've had a dog in my life for the past 17 years and have loved every second of it. Dogs truly are god's gift to man, and I try to do everything in my power to allow them to have the most engaging and enjoyable experiences possible. For the past year and a half, my family has been fostering dogs until they are adopted. Because of this, I have experience watching over and entertaining all kinds of different breeds of dogs with different attitudes and levels of energy, usually multiple dogs at once. With the services I offer (house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking) I will make sure each dog gets individual attention, proper care, and of course loads of affection. I enjoy playing with dogs, cuddling with dogs, wrestling with dogs, playing fetch with dogs, taking them to dog parks, and anything else they could possibly desire. When taking care of your dog, you can be confident that your dog will be in a loving and fun-filled environment. I am currently working full time as a graduate student so my schedule is skewed toward weekend booking starting Friday afternoon/evening through Sunday evening. That being said, I am able to make exceptions depending on the specific situation, so please feel free to reach out if you are at all interested! I'm only able to offer pet car in the client's home at this time. However, I strive to ensure pets are as comfortable at home with me as they are with their owners, and try to re-create the home schedule that they are used to with their owner, including meal times, walks and bathroom break, and cuddle and play time. I make sure to keep owners in the loop with pictures/videos and 1-2 updates per day. Additionally, I strive to leave the home as clean and tidy as when I arrived, so the owner wouldn't even know I was there.

“Brittney took great care of our pittie, was very responsive and proactive in reaching out over text while we were gone, and was very attentive when our boy broke out due to allergies. I’d highly recommend!”

Michael M.

“Will definitely be my go-to sitter! My cats love her (and my corgi has also decided she can be a new best friend), and she took the time to really lovingly care for the kitties. Awesome person, and went above and beyond! (Even vacuumed up some extra kibble my kitties left behind) 100/10, will be hiring again.”

About: I’ve been a pet mom for over 25 years while raising my five children. Since losing my loyal companion 2 years ago and empty nesting, I am ready to shower love and care to your beloved pet. There’s nothing like the unconditional love of a pet and I can’t wait to meet your furry companion! I am currently a companion to my 90 year old mother and am home every day. I can easily incorporate care for your pet into our very flexible schedule. I can offer walks, play and companionship to your pet and visits to dog parks if they like to play with other dogs. Deck available at home- yard is not fenced in. Beautiful walking area around the lake behind our home.

About: Hey there! I've loved animals my whole life, and I'm excited to get the chance to make friends with your furry loved ones! I'm also the proud parent of a deaf & partially blind dog, plus a feisty cat, so I know how to make sure your pet gets the special attention it deserves. Whether it's a quick check in, a quiet stroll through the neighborhood, or something more adventurous like a nature trail (Eno River is just a quick drive away!), I'm happy to help accommodate all your pet needs. With almost 20 years of customer service experience, I know how important building trust is, especially with pet owners and their furry family members, and I'd love to be the person you reach out to when you need reliable pet care. I work from home and have a good amount of flexibility throughout the day and on weekends. I'm also up before the sun rises on most weekdays if there are any early pet care needs you might have. First and foremost is making sure your pet feels safe and loved - in whatever form that takes! If they're happy and you're happy, then I'm happy.
