House Sitting in Amboy

About: Hi! My name is Sage and I specialize in animal caretaking and welfare. I have lived my entire life with at least one animal in the house and I have been dog sitting on and off since high school. I am certified in three years of dog training and currently live with my lovely cat, London. I’ve never met a pet that I haven’t loved, and past employers would describe me as dependable, easy-going, and kind. My days are entirely open, except for the occasional one or two days a week where I am called in from one of my other jobs. I am also a full-time college student during the fall and winter time, but my summers are almost entirely clear. In my home, I live with my cat London, and four other housemates. If your animal stayed with me, they would never feel alone and would always have somebody in the house that can watch them or be there for all their needs. We have a lovely backyard full of grass, a back deck for lounging and sunbathing and a large neighborhood for daily walks. Your pet would feel like a king or queen in a castle! :)

“Elizabeth was Amazing with our pets! We were so nervous since this was our first time using Rover, but she made us feel so comfortable leaving our pets. She kept us updated with texts and pictures, which we really appreciated. We would recommend her to everyone!”

About: I provide reliable, attentive, and loving care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. What sets me apart is my commitment to treating every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 8 years and have experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, and temperaments, including energetic puppies that need structure and patience, as well as senior dogs that require a gentler pace and extra attention. I recently moved to the area and am excited to get back into pet care and build relationships with local pet owners. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering oral medications when needed, maintaining feeding schedules, and providing regular exercise and enrichment tailored to each dog’s needs. Communication is one of my top priorities, and I provide frequent updates, photos, and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care, plenty of affection, and the attention they deserve throughout their stay. work a hybrid schedule, which gives me flexibility to provide pet care during lunch breaks, after work, and on weekends. This allows me to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and overnight care while ensuring pets receive consistent attention and companionship. I’m happy to work with pet parents to find a schedule that best fits their needs. I provide care in my clients’ homes to help pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I carefully follow each pet owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, exercise, medications, and any special care needs. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, and playtime while keeping their environment clean and secure. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.

“Emily was great!”

“Jacey was amazing with our two Great Danes. She stayed with them for two nights. She was attentive, communicative, and reliable. She handled our shy boy very well and even got some snuggles from him on the last day. We will absolutely ask for her services again.”

“Bobbie was great! We were so nervous, but she sent us photos of the dogs every visit and even did extra activities with them like reading to them and an art project! One dog had some inflammation while we were gone and she was great about the sudden change of having to administer medication and give that pup extra exercise. We will definitely use her again!”

About: I love dogs, and all animals for that matter. i’ve had pets all throughout my life and got my first dog of my own when I was 8. I love playing and cuddling. every dog, size and breed is amazing. I have a very flexible schedule, and would love to fill up my free time watching and taking care of dogs and cats. I hope you take my application into consideration, thank you. I have a very open and flexible schedule and can play and care for your pups and kitties for as long as needed, as I work part time. I have a clean home with a lot of back yard space for playing. I can easily crate your dog if it is necessary. I can follow feeding schedules and walking routines.

“I never worried about our pets or our house while we were on vacation with Lela there taking care of it all! Will definitely look her up for any future needs!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets longer than I can remember - from helping grandma with her horses and barn cats to spoiling and training our own dachshund puppy and two amazing kitties - I am well equipped for any situation. Some background for me: I was born and raised in Alaska! There I took care of cats of varying abilities/disabilities/age, dogs of all sizes and abilities/disabilities/age, and fish! There’s been instances where I have stayed over a month to look over a special needs cat, and dug my car out after a heavy snow to make sure a hyper puppy gets a good hike in! I’m adaptable and communicative - you can be sure that I’ll send you plenty of photos and videos of your pet while you’re gone! Now I’m here in Minnesota to finish college, start life with my new husband, and take care of the pets in Southern Minnesota! I’m currently still a student! But I have Tuesdays, Thursdays, and the weekends for the most part completely open! Otherwise, I will make sure to check in on your pets between classes to ensure they don’t go more than four hours alone. I can’t have a pet in my apartment right now 😭 but when I’m back home in Alaska, we had a fenced area for our dog while she was still with us, and we have two full-time indoor cats. We love to spoil our animals - lots of love, kindness, and a patient environment. Just positive reinforcement and steady routines over here!

About: I grew up in a animal loving home. I have had about 10 pets in my life, 3 cats and 2 dogs right now. I have also dog sat for my neighbors multiple times. I have so much love to give to your fur babies and can’t wait to meet them I am working part time and have the weekends and Mondays open for pet sitting. I can adjust my work schedule, but need to know ahead of time. I always make sure your babies get so many cuddles in and playtime to get all the wiggles out. And always a treat hear or there

About: What sets me apart is my diverse, hands-on experience caring for animals of all kinds. Through several years of pet and house sitting on TrustedHousesitters, I've provided reliable, loving care for dogs and cats. I understand that every animal has unique needs and personality traits, and I take pride in creating a safe, calm, and nurturing environment while you're away. My goal is to give both pets and owners complete peace of mind. Because I work remotely, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. My flexible schedule allows me to provide consistent attention, companionship, walks, feeding, and check-ins throughout the day rather than leaving pets alone for extended periods. I enjoy incorporating exercise, outdoor time, and enrichment activities into my day while ensuring each pet's individual needs and routines are maintained. My ability to travel also gives me the flexibility to accommodate house sitting and extended care opportunities. Having spent several years caring for dogs and cats through TrustedHousesitters, I am comfortable adapting to different homes, routines, and animal personalities. Whether it's daily walks, administering medications, or simply providing companionship, I prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.

About: We have had the pleasure of owning a small business called "Pet-Inn" and boarded many dogs! Me and my mom took care of others dogs for quite some time and really enjoyed it. This experience helped me become passionate about entrepreneurship as well as working towards a compassionate connection with your pets! I currently have a part-time small business I'm running apart from being a "SAHM" so I will have plenty of time to get to know your beloved pet and get to know them so I can take care of them in the best way I know possible!
