Cat Sitting Willow

About: I am a former teacher currently leaving the education field and pursuing other career options. Because of this transition, I am available full time and my schedule is pretty flexible. I have been a fur parent all my life. I have experience caring for senior dogs (I have cared for 3 of my own). I am patient and attentive to detail. I believe in giving 100% in everything I do, so I love to ensure your pet is getting the proper love and care they deserve. This is my full time job so I am pretty flexible. With the proper advance notices, I can do drop-ins and walks in mornings and afternoons. I can do boardings on weekends and weekdays after 3pm. My animals are on a routine feeding schedule. They have many potty breaks and have play time in our fenced backyard. My senior dogs get any medication they need while enjoying relaxing time in my home.

About: Living with four cats means I’m basically fluent in feline! From high speed kitten midnight crazies to grumpy senior side eye, I’ve seen it all. I’m an expert at reading cat moods, mastering the art of the perfect chin scratch, and making sure your kitty gets a safe, fun, and totally customized visit. I'm a stay at home dad with four kitties. They're all different age ranges, my 3 year old daughter included. It's both chaos and a lot of fun! I just looove pet cuddles so much. I love giving belly rubs (if they give their consent). I also just love playing with pets. If they have toys, i can definitely keep them entertained. I always love Tug of War with dogs :)

“Emma is absolutely fantastic! She is so warm and friendly, my two kitties fell in love with her right away! She is super communicative and I loved all the pictures she sent of our girls! I will definitely be rebooking with her, highly recommend Emma!”

“Kristen and Jeff are a very considerate, pet loving couple and we just love them. They take very good care of our two dogs, send us their report along with pictures of the pups each time they come over to our house. We happily and highly recommend Kristen and Jeff to take care of your pet(s).”

“Meghan was absolutely fantastic! Kind, attentive and communicative. I felt like our dog was in good hands the entire time we were away. I would definitely book Meghan again and recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter!”

Julia P.

“Meg was fantastic with our dogs! She was very mindful of checking on them and seeing how hot it was outside to make they were getting overheated. Also got so many good pictures on my pets from her visits, will definitely be booking with her the next time I need a pet sitter.”

“Mika has always been great with Daisy and Bastion and she's always very responsive and was able to work with my schedule. I appreciate all that she does!”

“Natalie is THE BEST! We needed to find a new pet sitter after working with a friend for 15 years. We are very particular and Natalie was perfect! Our puppy loved her and so do we! Sweet, loving and extremely dependable! You could not ask for a better sitter for your furry loved ones! Thank you, Natalie! You made our vacation even better!”

About: Dogs have been an important part of my life for many years, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy and take seriously. Over the years, I’ve cared for puppies, adult dogs, senior dogs, rescue dogs, and high-energy breeds, each with their own unique personalities and needs. My experience includes fostering puppies, helping rescue and rehabilitate abandoned dogs, administering oral medications, reinforcing training, potty training puppies, and providing attentive day-to-day care through walks, house sitting, and drop-in visits. I have also cared for senior dogs who required extra patience, accommodations, and medication management. One of the things I enjoy most is getting to know each dog’s individual personality. Some dogs need structure and exercise, while others need patience, reassurance, and time to build trust. I adapt my approach to each dog while maintaining the routines and expectations established by their family. I believe great pet care goes beyond feeding and walks. I focus on creating a safe, enriching, and positive experience through structured walks, mental stimulation, play, and plenty of attention. I also provide frequent updates and photos so owners can feel confident and connected while they’re away. My long-term goal is to continue expanding my knowledge of canine behavior and training. Every dog teaches me something new, and I love the opportunity to learn from them while providing the care, consistency, and companionship they deserve. I work from home, which allows me to be flexible and attentive when caring for pets. Because I spend much of my day at home, I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, companionship, and plenty of supervision. I want to make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while maintaining the routine they’re used to at home. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions and do my best to maintain the routines that help dogs feel secure, comfortable, and relaxed. During walks, I stay fully attentive to the dog(s) and my surroundings. I avoid using my phone unless absolutely necessary, and if I need to check it for something important, we take a short break to ensure the dog’s safety remains my full focus. I also use safe handling practices at all times. For drop-in visits and house sitting, I make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, affection, and any medications or special care they may require. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I provide regular updates and photos to help you feel connected and confident while you’re away.

“Charlie was so great and patient with our protective and anxious pups! She really knows what she is doing when dealing with dogs. We will definitely be using her again 😍”

Maddy H.

“I can’t recommend Zoe enough! She took incredible care of Millie and Sadie, while I was away. From regular updates and photos to taking them for a walk. It’s such a relief to know I can trust someone so reliable, professional, and genuinely passionate about animals. Thank you so much – we’ll definitely be booking again!”

“Abby is the ABSOLUTE best! She takes amazing care of our babies (dog and cat) when we aren’t home and they both love her so much. We can rest comfortably whether at work or while on vacation knowing Abby is there for our babies.”

About: I’ve loved, raised, trained, and cared for animals in and out of the home all my life. With me, you have personalized care tailored to every stage of your dog’s life—from playful puppies needing gentle guidance and consistency to senior dogs requiring patience, comfort, and special attention. I treat every pet like family, with a focus on safety, trust, and genuine love. I currently have no other obligations and can tend to your pets’ every need. Whether it’s an intentional walk, a run in the park, fetch or tug of war, or snuggles on the couch for some much needed TLC, I’m available! I am not currently accepting boarding or pet care in my home; gladly, I will come service anything your pet may need in their home environment.

About: I started dog walking and pet sitting at 18 as a way to pay rent during COVID. Like anyone learning on the job, I made some mistakes in the beginning, but over the past 6 years, I’ve made a complete 180 — gaining valuable knowledge and refining my skills to care for animals the right way. Now at 24 and working toward becoming a veterinarian, this has grown from a job into a true passion. I combine experience, education, and genuine love for animals to provide the best care possible for your furry friends. My schedule varies weekly, so I update my calendar regularly to ensure you can easily book dog walking and sitting services whenever you need it. When walking dogs, I always bring a water dispenser and doggy bags, so you don’t have to worry about a thing. For dog boarding, your dog will feel right at home! Dogs are welcome on the furniture unless you prefer otherwise, following your training guidelines. I provide potty breaks every 2–4 hours and extra walks for energetic pups to burn off energy. Bedtime is at 8 PM, with the last walk of the day to help your dog settle in comfortably.

“Ollie was great with Luwi! She’s very attentive, flexible and makes sure things are good before she leaves after checking on Luwi. I would definitely re-book her again for future needs.”

Whether it's administering medications with gentle precision or making sure they get their walks in, I ensure your dog will receive the best care and attention. Don’t worry, because your adorable companion is in capable hands when you’re gone. I'm a Neosho County Women’s basketball athlete, and while I'm studying psychology and practicing, I'll have plenty of time to devote to caring for your adorable pets. I'm available throughout the week and on weekends, with flexible hours, ensuring your furry companions receive the attention and care they need. For client's homes, I maintain a consistent routine based on their pet's needs, including feeding, exercise, and playtime. Additionally, I adhere to any special instructions the owner provides, such as medication administration or specific care requirements, to ensure their pet's well-being and happiness while they're away. currently work Mondays and Thursdays from 6–8 PM and Tuesdays from 5:30–6:45 PM, but I’m free before and after those times and available the rest of the day. I’m able to house sit on both weekdays and weekends after work, and I’ll have plenty of time to give your pets attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. I love being around animals and will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I always try to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for no matter where they are staying. I pay close attention to their normal routine so they can feel as relaxed as possible while their owner is away. Whether I’m in my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets get lots of attention and patience, and I stay aware of how they’re acting so I can make sure they’re happy and doing well. I also understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone, so I will always treat them with care like they are my own.

About: **PLEASE READ ENTIRE PROFILE BEFORE SENDING A REQUEST.** I have several years of experience owning different breeds of dogs, and about 3 years in the pet boarding/training/grooming industry. Growing up, I often helped neighbors, friends, & family members with caring for their pets when they went out of town. I have also personally owned several dogs & cats over the years. Finally, I worked at a full service doggy daycare from 2016 to 2019 and loved every minute! Below are my requirements for ANY dog to book with me. I have put these in place for your pet’s safety as well as mine & my family’s safety to ensure the best possible stay for everyone! **I DO NOT ACCEPT DOGS WHO ARE NOT COMPLETELY CRATE TRAINED- NO EXCEPTIONS. Your dog MUST be comfortable and RELAXED in a crate for any length of time. They will be crated for mealtimes (30 minutes, twice a day) and overnight from about 10p-7a, as well as any time I need to leave the house. ***PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN CRATE AND BOWL)S)*** I work from home so I do have a good amount of flexibility. While I am home, pets will be getting regular play/exercise time as well as potty breaks every 4-6 hours unless otherwise noted in their Rover profile care instructions (I.e. younger puppies who need to potty more frequently) and depending on the weather. With my knowledge & experience, I am prepared to handle most needs, just let me know what your situation is and we can find a solution! I have a fenced yard and a dedicated space in my house for Rover clients to sleep in their crates, and they’re welcome to hang out in the common areas such as the living room, kitchen, & dining room!

“Jazmine was amazing. One of my cats needs medication twice a day, and Jazmine not only had no problem with the fact that this would have to be done, but she had no issues administering it! I will book her over and over, for as long as she's willing!”

“Highly, highly recommend using Carlie!!!”
