House Sitting Amherst

“Barbara was amazing! She made our first time experience absolutely stress free knowing that our dogs were being well taken care of! She sent an update every night of how the day went along with several pictures. Lexi and Baxter were very comfortable with her and took to her immediately 😊…definitely will be getting Barbara again when we go on our next adventure! Thanks again Barbara!! 🥰”

“Being a first time user, I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. They were excellent, kept me updated, sent pictures and videos throughout their stay. Will definitely be using them again!”

“Madeline watched our 2 dogs, 2 cats and our house while we were in Arizona for a week and let me tell you, she is phenomenal! She messaged us with questions and updates and sent hilarious pics; I knew my fur babies were in great hands and were well taken care of! Our pug had a special diet due to recent surgery too and Madeline kept him healthy and safe. We will definitely be booking her again if she’s available; she’s fantastic!!”

“Rachel is awesome! She put up with my problem furchildren so I could enjoy a weekend with my human children. As a very successful rover sitter myself, I hope this review holds extra weight because Rachel deserves it! I look forward to using her services again and even referring some of my clients to her when I can't help them. Hire Rachel, she's a good one!”

“Emily went above and beyond with our puppies. She sent pictures every day, spent LOTS of outdoor time with them and did everything she could to make sure they were not only taken care of, but happy. When she left she cleaned up to the point that we hardly knew she was here. Highly recommend, will definitely be hiring her again!”

About: I have always had pets in my life. From rescued dogs I would fine abandoned on the side of the road to horses who were about to be euthanized by our local rancher. Cats, kittens, puppies and adult senior dogs always have a place in my heart and home. I am an adopter and rescuer. I would love to help you with potty breaks to walks. Feeding to medication administration. Let me know what you need help with and I’ll be there. I’m currently looking to help pet owners as I have been in situations where I needed help with drop ins for potty breaks to needing someone to walk my dog while I was at work. I’m familiar and comfortable with doing all of the above along with giving oral or topical medication. I’m recently retired and would love to spend time helping out. I am very familiar with dogs and cats and all that goes along with making sure they’re comfortable and well taken care of care of.

“Elicia did an amazing job watching our doodle, Finley. She stayed at our house and made sure he was taken care of. I would certainly book with Elicia again.”

About: I’ve worked with dogs and cats aswell as many other animals for many years! I know how to groom, bathe and clip nails, I know how to train aswell when it comes to both cats and dogs, knowing i’ve pet sat for family and friends since i was young it grew on me for training them! I can trick, potty, behavior train too! I take care of my own pets everyday! i find it relaxing and enjoyable, it brings me great joy to spend time with animals and gives me a sense of purpose! I love to make sure everything is clean and tidy, dishes are clean as well as the animals, making sure they have what they need and have quality enrichment time.

“Craig did an amazing job with our 3 dogs and left the house in perfect shape. This was our first experience using the Rover app, but everything went smoothly. I’d highly recommend Craig for your pet care needs”

“Madeline is Great! My wife and I had a good feeling from her right when we met her. We have never left Ace with anyone overnite before, she is going on 18 years old. We felt very much at ease when we were gone. Madeline kept in contact with us via text when we were gone. We both would recommend her in a second!!”

“Sarah was such a blessing. She went way beyond house/pet sitting and made me feel so comfortable leaving my dog for the first time ever. She sent lots of updates and pictures. I even forgot I had so much anxiety over leaving my fur baby and just got to enjoy my vacation. We came home to a clean house, organized refrigerator!! and most importantly, a happy and healthy pup. Thank you so much Sarah!!”

About: I am currently a veterinary assistant, so I am comfortable paying close attention to an animal’s behavior, routine, and overall well-being. I also have experience working as a behavioral training assistant and dog walker at a humane society, where I worked with dogs that had many different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I have experience caring for dogs with separation anxiety, and I understand how important patience, consistency, and a calm environment can be for pets who may feel stressed when their owners are away. Through my behavioral training experience, I have also practiced working with dogs on basic manners, confidence-building, and adjusting my approach based on each dog’s personality. I also have practice giving medications and assisting with vaccines, so I am comfortable following specific care instructions and making sure each pet receives the attention they need. Overall, I try to treat every pet like they are my own while still respecting the routine and expectations their owner has already built. Whether a pet needs extra playtime, a slower approach, medication, walks, or just someone calm and attentive nearby, I am happy to adjust my care to what works best for them. Pet care fits very well into my current routine because I am only working as a veterinary assistant in Antigo two days out of the week. Outside of those workdays, I have a flexible schedule and am especially available on weekends. Since I will be in the area for the summer before I move, I would love to use that time to help people in the local community with pet sitting, dog walking, drop-ins, or other care needs. I know summer can be a busy time for travel, work, and family plans, so I am happy to provide reliable care when owners need someone they can trust. My schedule allows me to give pets the time and attention they need while still being consistent with their normal routine. I care for pets in a client’s home by trying to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible. I know pets can feel more comfortable when their feeding schedule, walks, playtime, medications, and quiet time stay close to what they are used to, so I always pay close attention to the instructions each owner provides. I am also very detail-oriented when it comes to caring for someone’s home. My goal is for you to return to a space that feels just as comfortable as when you left it, whether that means cleaning up after your pet, keeping food and supplies organized, bringing in mail, watering plants, or making sure the home is tidy before you return. Overall, I want both pets and owners to feel comfortable. I treat every home with respect and every pet with patience, care, and attention to their individual needs.

About: I’ve grown up with many different kinds of animals from dogs to bunnies & hamsters. I’ve also been around cats my entire life we just never had one in the house because my mom was allergic. I love animals as they have been my entire life growing up! I have been dog sitting for a year now, since January 2025 Pet care takes place in my everyday life because I have an 8-year-old dog and just got a puppy recently. I love to take them on walks and play with them outside. I also love teaching them new tricks and making sure they have fresh food and water. I can take your dogs on walks if they need them daily. I would also love to play with them to keep them entertained and get there energy out. If your dog sleeps in the bed no worries I love to have a snuggle bug next me.

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.

“Hailey was so great taking care of our furry family while we were away. She seemed to really enjoy being with the animals in the home. We hope to book her again soon!”

“Amber is fantastic! Shows up on time, texts any questions, takes pics of my crazy pets and sends them while we are away. I know they’re in great hands when Amber is their sitter! Highly recommend Amber and will be hiring her again!”
