House Sitting in Abel

About: I know how hard it can be to trust someone else with your pet. Animals are family, and it matters that they’re cared for by someone who’s calm, capable, and genuinely attentive. I’ve spent many years caring for pets, especially dogs, and I’m comfortable with a wide range of sizes, ages, and energy levels. I’ve raised dogs from puppies to seniors, from about 30 lbs to 120 lbs, and I’m confident working with large and extra-large dogs. They don’t intimidate me, and I truly enjoy their personalities. For several years, I volunteered as a dog foster and rescue transporter, which gave me experience with dogs from many different backgrounds. That work taught me patience, how to read body language, and how to help animals feel safe in new situations. I also have experience caring for cats and small animals like guinea pigs, and I understand how important routines and consistency are. For overnight stays or boarding, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, settled, and as close to their normal routine as possible. My goal is always to help your pet feel relaxed and cared for… and to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I’m an entrepreneur who works mostly online, which gives me a great deal of schedule flexibility. Because of this, I’m able to plan my days around walks, drop-ins, feeding times, and overnight care without rushing. I’m home often and happy to follow your pet’s usual routine so their day feels calm and familiar while you’re away. Clear communication is very important to me. I follow care instructions closely and share updates so you always know how your pet is doing. In a client’s home, I’m careful and respectful, making sure doors and gates are secure and pets are handled calmly and safely. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, supervised environment with safe outdoor time, including access to a large, securely fenced yard when boarding is part of the plan. My goal is for your pet to feel safe and comfortable… and for you to feel confident they’re in good hands.

“Olivia did a wonderful job of taking care of my animals and my home. She communicated with me while I was on my trip and gave me confidence that she was taking good care of my fur babies. It made my trip all the more enjoyable, knowing that my three cats and two dogs were happy and secure in their home environment.”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker for my pets. Linda was wonderful, always updating me throughout the stay, sending pics and accommodating all my pets’ needs. She was an excellent houseguest and was so courteous. She really is one of a kind and my pets warmed up to her immediately. I have a feeling she spoiled them more than we do!!! She walked frequently and even let them sleep with her. Linda really made our trip away from home stress free since we knew our animals were in good hands. She was a blessing.”

“Abby was a complete blessing to watch our pups for the week so we could enjoy some beach time. The pups are well fed, happy and content when we got home and the house looked fabulous too! So glad we chose Abby and Rover! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts ❤️💕”

“Celeste was great with my cat and dog. She kept in contact when I was gone, sending me lots of pictures! She stayed at the house, and was nice to know it was in safe hands!”

“I am so very pleased with how Eric took care of my pups, Tigger and Stella, as well as my home. I came home to two happy, smiley pups and a home that was clean and cared for while I was gone. It was evident that Eric treated my pups like family while he was here. Eric also made sure to text pics to me of his time with Tigger and Stella while I was away, and it looked like they were all having fun! I highly recommend Eric for in-home house and pup-sitting!”

About: I am always available to help you and your furry children! And I love doing it too! I have watched dogs in the past, more for favors than anything, but pets are my passion and I would love to be your choice for a walker/sitter/overnight companion to all the dogs and their awesome owners! We could go to the dog park if you wanted us to, or just stay at home and go on walks and spend some great quality time together. Treats always included! You won’t ever have to worry about your little (or big!) loved one when they’re with me because I promise to provide outstanding care! With me, they’ll get nothing but love and a great new friend and I can’t wait to meet y’all!

“Excellent job , thanks 🙏 is not enough for your dedication and commitment with our 🐶. We never worry about our babies anymore because of your professional work and skills that you give in every visit. 120% satisfied with your service, thanks 🙏 Rebecca Vanessa and Jaine”

“Paloma was an outstanding dog sitter. She was extremely dependable and responsible, treated our home with respect, and truly fell in love with our two large dogs. Her communication was excellent, and it was clear she cared for our dogs as if they were her own. When we returned, our home was left neat and tidy. We would absolutely use Paloma’s services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and gentle care. I’ve also assisted in training service dogs and therapy dogs, giving me a strong understanding of positive reinforcement and attentive handling. I’m committed to providing calm, reliable, and loving care while treating every pet like my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide consistent attention throughout the day. I plan my schedule around feedings, walks, playtime, and check-ins to ensure each pet receives reliable, unrushed care. Morning and evening routines are always prioritized, and I’m flexible to accommodate special needs, medications, or specific instructions. Your pet’s comfort, routine, and well being always come first. I focus on providing a calm, safe, and trustworthy environment where pets feel comfortable, respected, and well cared for. In my own home, I’ve cared for pets who love attention and play, as well as those who prefer quiet and space, so I understand and adapt to every personality

About: I was in 4-h for around 7-10 years and showed horses, cattle, rabbits, cats and dogs. I lived on a farm so I am good with all sized pets. I have a deep passion for animals and personally have 2 dogs a chocolate lab and siberian husky, and 2 cats a orange tabby and grey maine coon. I am a full-time college student so my schedule is pretty open all week and the weekends besides church Sunday mornings and I work Saturday nights 5-11. I am very responsible and have lots of experience pet-sitting. I strive to do my best job for all my cliets while also being respectful of their home.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in sixth grade. I used to be a nanny to a family that had two dogs, and I’ve taken care of many other dogs for friends and family. I’m currently working full-time, but I work half days on Fridays. I have work from home on Mondays, so could be flexible during the day as well. I can easily crate your dog if needed, or follow any other specifications or preferences you have for your dog. I can also vary the length of walk depending on your dogs needs!

“Jay did a great job! Would recommend him for anyone!”

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong love and experience with animals. Growing up on a farm taught me patience and responsibility, and I’ve cared for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I offer puppy training basics, gentle senior pet care, and medication support when needed. Most importantly, I provide consistent, loving attention so your pets feel safe, happy, and at home while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work part time, which leaves me plenty of flexibility. I’m available most days of the week to give animals consistent care, attention, and companionship. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping pets company, I can easily adjust my schedule to meet their needs. In my home, I make sure pets have a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of love, play, and attention. Walks, feedings, and cuddle time are always part of the routine. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely to keep pets on their normal schedule—whether that means meals, walks, medications, or bedtime routines—so they feel secure and cared for in their familiar space.

“Sidney did great with our pups! She offered some periodic updates, and our home was in good hands. We will totally have her watch our home and dogs again.”

“Kim did a great job! She is very reliable and a good communicator! She sent us pictures every day, we loved that. We will definitely have Kim come back in the future.”

“Lauren was incredible! She was our first experience with Rover and we will not hesitate to ask her back in the future. Our house was clean when we got home and our dogs were happily worn on! She sent a few pictures every day and I never worried about them. One of our dogs is reactive and Lauren allowed him space to warm up on his own, which was so important to us. They seemed pretty close and comfortable with each other and we were thrilled. We would highly recommend Lauren to everyone!”

“Took the best care of Daisy and communicated perfectly! Will be rebooking when needed in the future!”

“Linda took great care of our two dogs! She always responded quickly to my messages and sent several pictures over the weekend while we were away. We knew our dogs were happy and comfortable.”
