Cat Sitting Yeadon

“Tamikia did a fantastic job taking care of our cat while we were away. She came at the scheduled time and did all that was asked of her and more. She made us feel very comfortable leaving our cat in her care. We enjoyed receiving the daily updates and photos while we were away. We would definitely hire her again!”

About: I have always been an animal lover. I grew up with dogs and cats in the house. I’ve also had ferrets and a snake as pets. There was a period of time where, I had 3 dogs of my own at the same time. I have cared for puppies to senior dogs. I am a nurse that works from home full-time therefore, your pet will have companionship throughout the day. I will enjoy having the company of your pet while I am working as well. I have administered medications to animals as directed by pet owners and veterinarians. I am able to administer oral and topical medications. I have confidently cared for recently spayed/neutered animals. I am experienced in puppy potty/feeding routines, crate training as well as positive reinforcement with or without treats. While caring for your family’s fur baby, I will treat them like family and as directed per your wishes. I will attempt to adhere to their routines to make the transition of not being at home easier for them. There will be plenty of built in time for attention, potty breaks and playtime. Your furbaby will be made to feel at home here. I will make every attempt to adhere to their home routine as much as possible to lessen the stress of this transition. I have a small unfenced grassy area that is available for quick potty breaks. For exercise and the longer potty breaks, we would go on walks through the neighborhood. I currently walk approximately 2 miles (weather permitting) for my own physical fitness therefore if your pup is willing and able, I would love the company. Typically, when I have watched friends and family's dogs we took walks 3 times a day. There will always be room for other accommodations if more or less walking is needed. I will ensure that your pet is safe and comfy while they sleep at night and rest during the day. There is a clean doggy bed and plenty of blankets to choose from if laying on the floor as I have hardwood floors. Please feel free to bring and favorite toys or advise of any activities that your pet enjoys as it is my goal to make them feel at home. My home gets the morning and afternoon sun though the large front window which provides a space for your pet to sunbathe if they so choose. There is also a sitting windowsill for them to enjoy some outside activity with the safety of being indoors. As previously stated, I have a small, unfenced yard available for quick potty breaks. For dogs, majority of their bathroom breaks will be walks depending on their energy and activity level. For visiting kitty's the litter box will likely be placed in my semi-finished basement unless other stipulations are discussed. Your kitty will be lovingly guided to the litter box to get acclimated to it's whereabout. I will provide the desired updates, pictures and communicate any issue timely so that you can feel at ease that your beloved pet is being well cared for. As a previous pet owner, I understand the worries of handing your beloved pet over to someone to care for them as you do. I assure you that your pet will be well loved and cared for here.

“Hannah was great! She took excellent care of my cat while I was out of town for the week, was very communicative, sent pics of my sweet boy every day, and even went the extra mile and took packages in for us. Highly recommend!”

“Grace was amazing! Her communication is so prompt, and she always gives us lots of photos of our girls while we’re gone. This was our second time having her watch our cats, and I still can’t recommend her highly enough!”

About: I’m a dependable animal lover who enjoys spending time with any and all pets! I have prior experience pet-sitting throughout high school and college and would love to watch/walk your pet. I live an active lifestyle and will be sure to make the most out of my time with your furry friend! I currently live in West Philly and am able to help walk pets/pet sit throughout the greater Philly area. I promise that your pet is my top-priority and that they will get all the love and care they deserve while I’m watching them. I currently work from home most days and can be available to pet sit during the day on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I also have the flexibility to take your pet on walks in the morning and evenings on those weekdays and all day on weekends. I live in a building that is very pet friendly with a dedicated dog park and a fenced backyard space with little noise. I live within walking distance of several parks that are great for dog walking as well. I do not currently have any pets and as such will not create any conflicts with your pets if they are sensitive to unknown dogs/cats.

“Angela was great with my cat Davey, I highly recommend her to anyone in need of cat sitting! Kind, trustworthy and responsive - Angela sent updates/photos daily. I felt assured that my cat was in good hands! When I returned, Davey was in great spirits, healthy and happy! Angela left my place spotless and even brought packages in for me. Highly recommend and will book with her again in the future!”

About: Hi, I'm Olivia. I'm an experienced dog walker, pet sitter, and pet owner! I have owned a variety of pets throughout my life-- turtles, fish, cats and I recently had a senior rescue dog but she unfortunately passed away. I currently have a cat who is very friendly but can be separated from your dog either by a gate or kept in his own room. I have many years pet sitting for all sorts of animals and I love walking dogs. I love dogs and cats and I can even groom a horse. I have experience giving oral medication to dogs and cats and am not intimidated by dogs who pull on their leash or are reactive. I enjoy long walks, no matter the temperature and will be sure to give your pup the attention and exercise they deserve! During drop ins, I can provide your pet with attention, love and entertainment-- whether that be time in the yard, playing tug of war or whatever else your pal loves! I would be honored to care for your pet while you are away, at work or just need someone else to take the dog out for a long walk! I am currently in law school and am on campus most days for at least a few hours with Tuesday and Thursday being my busiest days. My availability is relatively open and I can be sure to give your pet the attention, care and exercise they deserve even on my busiest days. I have a fenced in yard, plenty of supplies for dogs and live in a very dog friendly environment with access to a walking path, a park, a dog park (although I prefer not to take the dogs I care for to a dog park and keep them from interacting with unknown dogs) and plenty of grass and trees.

“Matin was fabulous. We have only had chicken noodle for seven months and I was extremely apprehensive about leaving her but Matin made me feel so at ease and relaxed knowing that she was in the best hands possible. I wanted to keep chic in her routine and make sure she was just as comfortable with someone else as she is with us and Matin did just that! She sent pictures and videos and kept us up to date with how chick was doing on a daily basis. Matin is my first call when we go away again! Words could never express how thankful I am for the care she provided for chicken noodle!”

“Paz is so great! During our meet & greet she was super thorough, took great notes, and asked great questions. I knew my diabetic cat was in good hands with her. Will be booking her again!”

Julie P.

“Kristin is amazing! She cared for my two cats while I was away, and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. She provided great notes and photos, and she took time to earn trust from each cat. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals and genuinely love spending time with them. I grew up in a household with four cats, three of whom were adopted, and I personally raised two of them from just a few months old. I’ve also fostered cats multiple times, including young kittens, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, ages, and care needs. I volunteered weekly at a PAWS adoption center for two years, where I cared for many cats at once with different backgrounds and needs. I regularly helped with feeding, cleaning, playtime, socialization, and comforting cats who were shy, stressed, or still adjusting to the shelter environment. I also had cared for animals before and after surgery, so I understand the importance of being gentle, observant, and patient when an animal needs a little extra care. I have experience living with and caring for both large and small dogs, including feeding, walking, playing, and keeping them company. I’m patient and attentive, and I take the time to understand each animal’s personality, routine, and boundaries. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and needs a little extra time to warm up, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Your pet and I will get along! I’m currently a part-time student at the University of Pennsylvania, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available throughout the day and evening six days a week, with Fridays being my only regular unavailable day. Since my schedule isn’t packed with classes, I can easily fit in walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, or just keeping your pet company. I also love having animals around, so spending time caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to! I’ll care for your pets in your home, where they can feel safe and comfortable in their own space. I know every pet has their own little routines and preferences, so I’ll follow yours closely—whether that means feeding, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, cuddles, or just sitting nearby and keeping them company. I love getting to know each pet’s personality and letting them warm up to me at their own pace. I can also make toys and enrichment activities to keep them entertained, and for cats, I’m comfortable trimming their nails if they’re comfortable with it. Most importantly, I’ll give your pets plenty of attention and make sure they feel cared for while you’re away.

“We are so thankful we found Blue! Blue took the best care of our girls and kept us updated every step of the way! Even with tricky medicine and eating allergies, our two kittens were happy and healthy when we got home! Blue made it easy for us to enjoy our weekend away knowing our kittens were taken care of and loved. Would love to have Blue stay here again!!”

“Vishy enjoyed her time with Grace. She was walked, fed and played with in the 3 hr extended drop in. We will be using Grace again soon for a longer house sitting!”

“Richelle was brilliant looking after our cat. Brilliant updates with photos, kitten was well looked after, she is clearly very good with cats!”

About: As the proud owner of a Chihuahua and Shiba Inu mix, I have a deep appreciation for canine boundaries and body language! My own dog prefers his personal space and isn't a fan of meeting new dogs or people, which has taught me how to be a strong advocate for a pup's comfort and safety in public. Because of this, I am highly attentive to subtle stress signals and always let new furry friends warm up to me entirely at their own pace. I never force interaction. Whether your dog is a social butterfly or a sensitive soul who needs someone to respect their boundaries and advocate for them on walks, I will ensure they feel safe, respected, and completely understood. I juggle part-time work and veterinary assistant studies, which actually leaves my schedule wide open and flexible to care for your dog! This makes me highly available for mid-day potty breaks, weekday walks, and open to last-minute booking requests. I am easily available for dedicated overnight house-sitting and extended daytime companionship. I offer a low-stress, highly secure environment where your dog's well-being comes first. My home features a fully fenced-in backyard for safe exercise and built-in entertainment like bird and squirrel watching. When house-sitting, I maintain your dog's exact routine in the comfort of their own environment. I follow strict supervision and home security protocols, keep you updated with daily photos, and ensure your house is left perfectly clean.

About: I have taken care of my dog and cat since I was in the 6th grade. My dog was 13 and passed away in May, but before that the vet always complimented him for how healthy and well taken care of he was. I love all animals and have also had a cat since I was in Kindergarten! Right now, I am looking for some side gigs while I find a full time job post-graduation. I just graduated in May and am still looking for a full time job! I have a fenced back yard and a Golden Retriever named Oakley who is very shy, but gets along with other dogs. I take him on walks daily and he is very welcoming to other dogs coming into the home.

About: All of my friend’s pets love me! It’s easy for me to match their energy and help them forget that their favorite people aren’t home, you! I currently work full time but my schedule allows for me to stop by the house twice a day. I start work at 11am in the city, so depending where you live, I usually leave for my commute around 10am. My day ends at 7pm, then I head right to your pets from there. I never leave without playtime, unless they are really shy but I’m persistent. If my schedule works for you I would love to keep your pets company. I have a baseball field down the street from me that your pets can run wild in. During the week there’s no one there in the morning and it’s fenced in. Your cat will have plenty of toys and areas to roam free in my house.

About: I take care of pets on a daily. Whether it's saying hi to my roomie Daisy, or the local cats, or the squirrels outside the window I work the normal 9-5 hour job. If your pet requires check in, some feedings and weekend check in and sittings, that is more ideal. As an early riser, and late sleeper (weird, I know) I can provide AM check ins and PM support I like to have your pet stay in their normal routine so that they are comfortable and happy. Plus it's fun to see a pet be themselves.

About: Experience with caring for and grooming senior pets and kittens. I’m also pretty crafty about getting pets who are reluctant to do it to eat their food/take their meds. Looking for stable work at the moment, in the mean time I’m available for petsitting, housesitting. Can do NY or Philadelphia and most places in between. I’m good at interacting with pets and feeling out how much interaction they want and when to give them space. I try to get creative with playing with them if possible.
