Cat Sitting Willwood

About: I have handled and cared for a wide variety of pets for over 20 years. My passion, attention to detail, and tender, service-minded approach help me adapt to any pet in any situation. I specialize in large breeds as well as dog aggressive dogs. I am highly flexible and attentive, offering a customized experience for all of my clients and their pets. When it comes to dogs, size does not matter—I have successfully cared for everything from massive St. Bernards to tiny Chihuahuas! I have a Flexible schedule through out the week and on the weekends. I offer house sitting, drop in visits, as well as dog walking. I provide a highly attentive, hands-on, and customizable experience for every pet and owner. I prioritize the unique needs of my clients and their companions, ensuring the highest standards of care and trustworthiness.

About: I have been an animal lover and had dogs my whole life. My first job was working at a boarding kennel at 14 years old. I have worked with many different breeds. I am experienced with boarding pets in my home, pet bathing experience/groomer in training, nail trimming, ability to give oral medications, insulin injections (I have had two diabetic dogs), walking dogs of any breed or size. At this time I am very flexible. My life revolves around animals. I can commit to your schedule to suit you and your pets needs. I have a fenced in back yard and live away from high traffic for safe walks, I have dogs of my own for your pup to have friends to play with. I can keep my dogs separate from yours if needed. Patient, and quiet loving home with pet's needs as my top priority. Can take them for car rides or snuggle up on the couch and watch a movie. I can pick your pet up and drop them off if needed.

About: Working at a Veterinary Hospital before going to college absolutely solidified my love for animals and caring for them! I love learning their unique traits and I can’t wait to bond with your pets! I’m currently a full time student at JMU but I’m looking to add pet sitting into my routine! With warm weather coming up, I know how important it is to find a reliable sitter for vacations! I can’t wait to meet your pets! Caring for your pets in the safety of your home is important to me! Allowing them to show me around and playing with their favorite toys is so exciting!

“I have three elderly dogs, two of which did not have not had a good past. They are fearful of people for good reason. They instantly trusted Mary. I have never before been able to go away without worrying the entire trip. She has truly enhanced our lives, already booked her a second time.”

About: I’ve taken care of multiple different animals including dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and bunnies. I have experience with young kittens, even syringe or bottle feeding. I’m a fast learner and love all animals and I would be happy to take care of your beloved pets! Home from college for the summer with all the time on the world to take care of your animals! Any day or time works for me! I will play, pet, and cuddle your pets all day long! I love going on walks and enjoying the fresh air with your furry friends!

“They were amazing! I am so thankful I found them! I have a doggie who is reactive/ unpredictable at times. They listened to my concerns and implemented my recommendations to keep everyone safe. I could not have asked for a better experience!”

About: My Dad introduced me to Rover! He cares for 13 regular clients and taught me everything I know about pet sitting. I had a dog for most of my childhood and lost him just recently, in January. I love caring for pets of all shapes and sizes with all their needs. It's great having energy in the house again! I am in school part-time on Tuesdays and Wednesdays (some Fridays) till 2pm. I work evenings as a swim instructor, so afternoon check ins and playdates are available! Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays are my big free days! I do not live alone! I'm housed by my wonderful parents who are willing to assist in whatever way (if needed). I have lots of spare time between school and work for check-ins and walks! Our house used to be home to my childhood doggy not too long ago, we still have bowls and toys they can play with! Walks are common in our neighborhood because fences are not. I have used harnesses, collars, and control collars in walks so I have experience. I will customize my care to you and your pets need, any type of feed wet or dry, any type of personality, no two pets are the same!

“Colleen is wonderful with our 2 German Shepherds (at one point three!). She's prompt, very responsive, and caring! We are so thankful for Colleen whenever we are away for long weekends or family vacations. Thank you!”

Kamila C.

“Erin is awesome! She was able to accommodate us with super late notice! She dropped in, took our dogs out, fed them etc. The dogs loved her and she sent me pictures from each drop in! We will definitely use her again!”

Jessica W.

“Chelsey was fast to respond and came over for a first meeting prior to the booking. You could tell that Chelsey is used to being around dogs, including larger breeds and so that was helpful since we have a large German Shephard puppy. The meeting was very positive and our visit went smoothly with playtime and a break outside. We will definitely book again!”

Diana Y.

“We hope that Danielle can continue to help us out with our dog. She was very responsive to our inquiries and made our first time using Rover a breeze. She took great care of our dog and we felt at ease going away for the weekend knowing Danielle was watching our pup!!”

Kristinn D.

“Alexis went above and beyond taking care of our kitties!!! She was amazing with having one of my cats needing medication daily. She cared for them like they were her own pets. Exactly what you want when you’re away and not having to worry about your pets! She was also willing to help out with some house things also!! I would Highly recommend her to care for your pets!! She was very caring and loving! My one cat is very skittish & hardly comes out for me, and she was out everyday waiting to visit with Alexis!! Would have her back anytime to care for my pets!!!”

About: I have had cats and a dog that I made sure were well taken care of. I love taking care of animals whether mine or other people's. I work in the mornings until 12pm and have off in the afternoon, so I will have time in the afternoon and evenings to take care of other people's animals I have several leashes to use to walk dogs and I have gates and crates that I can block of certain areas of the house to make sure they are safe.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. Having owned multiple cats, including one with thyroid issues requiring daily medication, I’m comfortable providing specialized care when needed. I also grew up helping my mom pet sit for family members’ dogs and cats, giving me years of experience with feeding, playtime, exercise, litter box maintenance, and ensuring pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I also have experience with small animals like pet rats from owning them for several years and have cared for guinea pigs in the past. I'm able to give medications orally and topically for small animals. I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and treating every pet like they’re part of my own family. I have flexible availability on both weekdays and weekends, with most availability before 11:00 a.m. and after 5:00 p.m. I’m also available for extended visits, overnight stays, and in-home pet sitting, allowing me to provide consistent, reliable care that fits your pet’s routine. I tailor my care to each pet’s unique needs and routine to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. For dogs, I provide walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of companionship. For cats, I handle feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and affection on their terms. I’m experienced in administering oral medications, including pills and liquid medications, as well as topical treatments. I also have experience caring for blind and deaf pets and understand the extra patience and attention they may require. Whether your pet is full of energy and loves interactive play or prefers to relax and simply enjoy having someone nearby, I’m happy to meet them where they’re comfortable and provide the mental stimulation, exercise, or calm companionship they need.

“I had Jessica come by to let my puppy out for a potty break and a little playtime. She came by ahead of time so we could meet her and explain procedures. She was very prompt responding to me and sending me the rover updates on her visits. I would definitely use Jessica again.”

About: I have always loved taking care of dogs and helping my neighbors by dog sitting, so I have experience feeding, walking, playing with, and giving lots of attention to dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’m patient, responsible, and good at making animals feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. As a college student home for the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. Since I don’t have a strict daily routine right now, I’m able to work around different pet care needs, whether that includes morning walks, afternoon check-ins, evening care, or overnight stays. I enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my routine and gives me something I genuinely enjoy doing while I’m home for the summer. I make sure any animal feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I follow any instructions given by the owner, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and overall routines to help pets feel more relaxed while their owners are away. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, while keeping their environment clean and safe. I understand that every pet has a different personality and needs, so I always try to be patient, attentive, and caring with each animal.
