House Sitting Achilles

“Ryn kept us informed about what was happening with text messages and pictures and videos. Our girls were well cared for. Would definitely use her again and recommend her to others.”

“Linda is my go-to dog and house sitter. When planning a trip, the first thing I do is try to get on her calendar! She always goes above and beyond when staying with Harley, and makes my being gone so easy and worry free.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for about 10 years now. I own 3 dogs myself and take care of them everyday. I have also worked at an overnight boarding place for animals, volunteered at animal shelters, fed many pets, walked many dogs, and I hope to continue bettering animals. I am currently working a part-time job however, i am available after 5pm on Tuesday’s, Wednesday's, and Friday’s. I am unavailable Mondays & Thursday’s. I am fully available on weekends! I will make sure your pets have everything they need whether that’s attention, belly rubs, extra potty breaks, long walks, or even a cuddle buddy

About: I have owned many dogs/cats/ducks/horses. I have been relied on by many family members and friends to check in their furry friends. I can do anything that needs to be done including washing, walking, feeding, or just playing. Please reach out to me! I am currently working as an Amazon driver with a flexible schedule. I am also willing to check in on your fur baby around my weekly schedule. I will keep up with trash, cleaning litter boxes, and changing puppy pads like the house is my own. And of course always keep the water jug full.

“Maggie was great! Very responsive and my dogs loved her. She kept my house in great condition to return to and was super flexible, will use her again!”

About: I signed up to help others care for their pets because I use Rover as well. Having a trusted individual available to care for our furry friends is important. I provide excellent pet care service for others. I will inquire about your pet’s personality, special needs, likes and dislikes. I will professionally communicate with you, treat your pet with great care, and your property with respect if welcomed into your home. Thanks for considering my services, I look forward to hearing from you. Here to help. I am employed full time. Any assistance I would be able to provide would be early morning, late evening during the weekdays, and much greater flexibility on the weekend. I will care for your pets and be respectful to your home. For me that begins with good communication between you and me. Setting clear expectations between us and getting to know your pets as best as possible before the first visit.

“Great communication and followed all directions to a tee! He cared for the house well and treated our dogs like his own. We have a quite elderly Dane with very specific medical needs, and Trenton did a great job. Very impressed!”

“Ashlyn did an amazing job of looking after my dog and cat. She took Percy on long walks and played with Jasper. Would highly recommend that you book her and I would definitely book her again!”

About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to gentle older dogs, such as my own. I tailor my approach to each animal’s needs. What sets me apart is my calm, patient energy and attention to detail—I don’t just watch pets, I get to know them. I have experience with basic training reinforcement, senior pet care (including administering oral medications), and making nervous animals feel safe and loved. Whether it’s a long walk, structured playtime, or simply keeping a routine, I care for every pet like they’re my own. Also for full disclosure up front, I do work two jobs during the summer. I am a part time math tutor and I also work at Costco. As a college student home for the summer, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. With no classes or school obligations right now, I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits—whatever fits your pet’s routine best. I love spending my summer surrounded by animals, and I’m fully committed to giving each pet the time and attention that they need. Safety and trust are my top priorities in every pet care situation. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect their space and routines to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I follow all owner instructions carefully—from feeding schedules to medication dosages—to ensure consistency and well-being. I always secure doors, windows, and any potential hazards to create a safe environment. As for staying in my home, I unfortunately cannot have other pets coming and staying with me, due to the amount of allergies in my household and my older dog that is living with me

“Ehlaura was amazing. Not only did she take my booking last minute, but she took GREAT care of my senior dogs. There were multiple curve balls over the few days she stayed with them and she was very communicative about everything. My dogs certainly gave her a run for her money, but she handled everything so well and made me incredibly glad that I’d found her so last minute. I would have been much more worried about my dogs without her great care and communication.”

Alyson T.

“Anna did a great job taking care of our Riley. Let us know when she arrived and left and sent updates and pics throughout the visit. Enjoyed our trip so much more knowing Riley was in such good care🤎”

Allison J.

“This was my first time hiring a dog sitter and I couldn’t be happier with Savanna. She was knowledgeable attentive and punctual. She showed a desire to get to know my dogs and cat and maintain their routine. I received photos and updates daily. I highly recommend her and plan on hiring her whenever I need a house/dog sitter in the future.”

Cathy W.

“Christina took great care of our two dogs and cats while we were traveling. This was our first time using a pet sitter and she helped us be at ease! We got lots of pics and updates which were so welcomed!”

Jennifer N.

“Micaela was amazing! She took lots of pictures and sent me an update of how the day went every evening. My dog had a great time! I’d love to have her watch Shadow the next time we go out of town”

About: I have taken care of pets since I was young girl. I also have worked as a Veterinary Technician on Langley Air Force Base. I enjoy pet sitting all kinds of animals, especially dogs and cats. I am retired and involved in some weekly activities, so pet sitting fits perfectly with my schedule. I enjoy the freedom and flexibility of pet sitting, not to mention the joy of being around pets. I am attentive, detail oriented and versatile. I believe in leaving things the way I found them, or better. I always strife to do my best at whatever I do, and I am a very trustworthy person.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every pet. I treat each animal like they’re my own, paying close attention to their routine, personality, and comfort. I provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing, and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including puppies who need patience and consistency, as well as senior pets who may require extra care, slower walks, or medication support. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and I truly care about making both pets and owners feel at ease. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make it a priority to be reliable and consistent for every booking. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits, depending on your pet’s needs. I plan my day around the pets I’m caring for, making sure they get the attention, feeding, and interaction they’re used to. Whether it’s quick drop-ins or longer visits, I’m committed to being on time and keeping their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets in your home. I take the time to follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, litter box care, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I pay close attention to their behavior and environment to make sure they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home and keep everything clean and tidy, including maintaining litter boxes and feeding areas. I always make sure doors, windows, and entry points are secure, and I’m mindful about preventing escapes—especially with indoor cats. I also provide regular updates with messages and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is to create a calm, safe environment where your pet feels at ease and you have complete peace of mind.

About: I am the middle child of a fur baby parent who has fostered a many dog breeds of all shapes and sizes over the course of my childhood (Chihuahuas, Yorkie Poodle, Golden Retrievers, Labs, Pit Bulls, Shepherds, etc.) with my first pupper being a rescue at the age of 10. With this, I have experience administering medication and even feedings for the bottle fed pups safely and efficiently (given there are multiple doses during the visit). Also, I can provide light grooming services as requested- if there is a service I am not comfortable with, I will make it clear so pet parents can find the right fit for themselves, their babies! All dogs need love, even the 'hyper' ones! I have experience with handling all different kinds of personalities, from bundles of energy who love to talk to the content seniors that love to rest, so I have no qualms so long as they aren't biters- yikes! I am active and always on the move so taking long walks or multiple short ones, even rides to the dog park, if allowed, are the kind of adventures your doggo will have with me! I am punctual when it comes to following a time schedule and completing tasks before the end of day so the next sitting experience is ready for a fresh start! I have moved back to the Hampton Roads area from Iowa state this past November with ride share (Uber) and Spark being my job at the moment until I find something more stable; I make my own schedule. With this, there is plenty of time to fit your pet(s) into my day to day! Peace of mind for the pet parents and comfortability, safety for said pets are my top priority. I'm always on the lookout, keeping your pet in my line of sight and sheltered (within the home save for walks and outdoor play if granted). Following the guidelines given by parents, communicating throughout the day, not just in a case of emergency is important to me, plus it allows clients the security of knowing what takes place in their home while away.

“Brigette was very reliable and took wonderful care of Lila. I felt at ease while away from home.”
