House Sitting in Amherst

“So grateful for the wonderful care & communication Barbara has watching my dogs. It’s such a relief to know she’s there, the dogs engage with her as they do with me and she’s great at following the special diet & RX needs And.. she takes great care of the house as well bringing in mail/ packages and leaves it spotless - or at least as good as I left it for her 😃. Definitely recommend her and have already rebooked!”

About: I am experienced in pet care! I have been around animals my entire life, and have cared for many. I love making sure they are not only properly taken care of, but also being given the chance to live their best lives! I am currently a student at UWSP, so my weekdays tend to be fairly busy, but I have plenty of breaks in between for check ins and walks. I am also able to care for pets while multitasking during long nights studying. My personal pets are always a priority to me. I make sure they are fed proper amounts, have a clean space to live and use the bathroom, and most importantly I make prioritize giving them love and affection. While more active animals, I tend to give them plenty of opportunities for exercise, utilizing the large space by my apartment complex. I am always finding creative ways to enrich my animals!

“Great experience! My very timid pup seemed very at ease and comfortable upon return. Will definitely hire Cheri again for pet sitting! Thanks Cheri!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs practically my whole life, and I’ve also worked at a pet food store so I’ve had experiences with all dog types. My friends and neighbors have often trusted me with their dogs. I currently work part-time (typically 9 am-2 pm) so I have plenty of free time in my afternoons and evenings to take care of your dog! I can also be pretty flexible if given enough notice. I am very respectful of anyone’s homes, and I always make sure to leave the place looking the same, if not better, than it was when I arrived.

About: I grew up with cats and dogs, love animals, provide love and affectionate care for them. Currently care for 1 dog, 6 cats and 6 bunnies. I'm passionate about animal care. I have a pretty flexible schedule and am available most holidays, or weekends. Enjoy playing and exercising with pets. 🩷💚 I can give plenty of exercise and playtime. I will brush dogs and cats. Love ❤️ to cuddle and comfort them throughout my time with them.

“She did a wonderful job of keeping me informed and making my fur babies comfortable while I was away.”

About: I grew up with a Maltese/Shi-Zhu. He passed away at 13 years old and was my best friend growing up. Fast forward to 4 years ago, my husband and I got a dog named Rylie from a shelter in the area. She is a German Shepherd Mix and we love her to death. I am a former Kindergarten teacher of 3 years, run an inhome daycare currently, and have a 15 month old daughter that keeps me busy. Looking to find families that look for weekend care. Cant wait to hear from you! I currently run an inhome daycare Monday-Thursdays. I have Friday's off, however, I do have a daughter that I would have to take with (if you are ok with that!). I am looking to help out on weekends consistently, or once in a while too for families when I am available. I will take care of your sweet dog in your home by playing, interacting, taking them for walks, cuddling with them, and providing them their basic needs while they are in my care. I love dogs of all ages and sizes!

About: I’ve helped my aunt take care of animals since I was 5. Ever since I’m the go to person for family and friends to take care of their animals. I also have background in doggy daycare! I’m currently not employed so looking to earn extra money while spending time with fur babies! I’m very flexible, dependable, and easy to work with! I’ve had lots of background in caring for dogs. Yours and your dogs comfort is my absolute priority! I’m willing to adjust to your pets needs.

About: I have taken in many animals of all kinds throughout the years , Persistent and accountable caretaker. It is important to me to make a difference to all walks of life. Currently I am staying home with my young children, I am available most days of the week! And am flexible to you and your pets wishes. I have a few aquarium animals, no dogs or cats, but I also care for some of the animals next door quite often. We have small children if your pet is tolerable of them and crating is optional per your request.

About: I have always had a love for animals. They hold a special place in my heart. I’ve had a pet dog for at least 10 years now and I’d say I take great care of her(: I love all kinds of animals and make sure they are taken great care of. I will make sure your pet is fed, and taken care of. I’d do anything for my dogs and even other people’s pets! I am responsible, clean, and well kept. I will treat your dog as if it’s mine and love him/her to death(: You’ll never have to worry about your dog not getting the care it needs when I’m around! Overall, I’m a huge dog lover and would love to take care of your furbaby! I am currently off of work so I will have almost every day to walk/drop by your fur baby during the day! And when I get back to work I will still love to walk and do drop ins! My own dog has her own fenced in yard. She is pretty old so I don’t have to worry about her running off but if any client has a request for a leash or if I don’t see a fenced yard I will make sure to always use a leash on your pet! I will always make sure they are safe and sound!

“Excellent communication. The house was very clean when we were returned. Our pet seemed well adjusted and content when we returned home. Reliable. Definitely would use Amber again”

“Responsive and responsible. I would book Cass again.”

About: My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I have had dogs in my family since I was 10. I have a flexible schedule and work part-time, so I can work with many other time requests and schedules. I can care for your pet on weekends also. I have a very large yard for your dog to play in and I have 2 friendly dogs to keep them company. I can crate your pet also if needed.

“Amy was just what we needed for Molly and Arthur! She stayed with them for the whole time we were gone. She’s incredibly intuitive of their personalities and what they need almost immediately! She’s totally focused on our babies needs, playing, exercising and most importantly loving them! We don’t expect newbie’s to be able to walk them both but she volunteered and accomplished it with no problem! Great example of excellent experience we highly recommend!!! Love you Amy! Thank you!”

About: Throughout my life, I have been surrounded by a variety of pets, and my love for animals has only deepened with each experience. My deep love for pets, combined with my caregiving experience, allows me to approach each animal with the attention and care they need. I am dedicated to ensuring that their health and happiness are prioritized, treating them with the same love and respect as I would my own beloved dog, Buster. I look forward to the opportunity to make a positive impact in the lives of pets and their owners! I’m currently getting my Master degree all of my classes are online which allows for my schedule to be flexible. I also caretaker for a girl with Down syndrome which has profoundly shaped my understanding of compassion, patience, and responsibility. This experience has taught me to approach every living being with empathy and respect, ensuring that their needs are always prioritized this is a vital skill in all levels of care taking whether it’s a person or a beloved pet. My own dog also feels like a person sometimes I’d do anything for him! In terms of safety and my home environment, I have an open yard where pets can play and explore freely in a secure setting. My home features two bedrooms, one of which can be designated as a quiet space for pets needing rest or can accommodate their crates if necessary. I also have a medium portable kennel that can be utilized for added comfort and security. My dog is friendly and well-socialized, but I believe in the importance of a proper introduction, so I would like to arrange a meet-and-greet before allowing any animal to stay over. Additionally, I'm more than happy to care for pets in their own homes, ensuring that they receive familiar and loving attention. Your pet's welfare is my top priority, and I am committed to providing a safe and loving environment tailored to their needs.

About: I have years of experience working with pets in animal shelters, and I also have my vet assistant certification. I am skilled at making pets feel safe and happy! I am in between jobs, so I have a ton of time to provide excellent care for your pets! I am available all day Monday-Friday and occasionally on weekends. I do not have a fenced yard but I live on a few acres of land for great walks to keep you dog happy! There are friendly dogs at the house but I have the ability to keep them separate as well if that is necessary. I can crate dogs when needed.

About: I walk, feed, bathe, play, and always give pups lots of attention! Dogs are my favorite and I always enjoy making new dog friends. I enjoy every little thing I get to do with dogs. I don’t work many hours during the week. I am available most days of the week so I am always able to watch dogs when needed. I am home every night so I can watch them overnight. I have a very friendly puppy who loves other dogs and can be around multiple dogs. I always make sure that anyones dog is in a safe environment. I hardly ever leave them unattended and unsupervised. We go for walks very often when it is nice out. I take my puppy outside to go potty at least once an hour if not more. I always make sure everyone is fed and happy.
