House Sitting in Argus

“Sam was so calm and kind. He was conscientious. Sam was a perfect fit for my elderly, hungry, plushy dog.”

“We are new to the Northeast and planned a trip out of the country for our anniversary. Dustin was very responsive from the beginning. He came to the house prior to meet our pups and get a scope of the house. He kept us informed of their well being with pictures and even made Henry's birthday special while we were gone. He also took great care of the house. Dustin will definitely be our first reserve on future travels. We know both the pups and the house are in great hands.”

“Juliette was so responsive with the lead-up to her watching my cat, Artemis. She contacted me about how Artemis was doing during each visit and she was so kind. I would recommend booking her because she really made sure Artemis was well looked after.”

“Kat was awesome! my pup had an injury right before Kat stayed with him for a weekend & he needed a bunch of medications frequently. I was super nervous about leaving him when he needed extra care but she made me feel comfortable and followed instructions perfectly. Will definitely trust her to stay with my pup again!”

About: I had a dog as a child. I have had dogs for over 35 years. They are great company and a great addition to any family. I am retired. My time would be totally devoted to spending time with your pet(s). I look forward to giving you the comfort that your pets are well-cared for while you are not home. My pets at home are pretty spoiled. They are not crated and we play inside and outside. Whatever the owners require is what I will do. Unfortunately, my most recent dog died of cancer. I miss her; but look forward to taking good care of other people’s pets.

“This was our first experience with Rover and we’re SO HAPPY it was with Norbert! He was thorough, communicative, and so supportive, I’ll definitely be booking him again! 5 stars! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”

“Hands down, Guinevere has been the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. She responded in a very timely manner, kept us updated on how our three dogs were doing and sent many pictures. Two of our dogs normally go on a hunger strike when we leave, but this was no problem with Guinevere there. She even won over our crabby dog! House was left cleaner than when we left. We’re excited to book with Guinevere again in the near future.”

Jennifer J.

“Abbi was great! She really went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were well taken care of during our weekend away. 100% recommend and would book Abbi again.”

“Suzie was great! Each day we had photos and a report. It was nice knowing someone was "living" with our "kids" while we were away. She took great care of them! I would highly recommend her.”

Charlene T.

“Wonderful to work with, I will definitely use them again!”

Stephanie E.

“Erika is amazing! She cared for our two dogs with love and sent me pictures of the dogs cozied up sleeping on the couch next to her. She respected our home and tidied up after herself. When our plans ran a little later than expected, she did not hesitate to stay until we were able to get home. I would highly recommend Erika for your dog sitting needs. I know I will be booking with her again.”

Rebecca H.

About: I got my first dog when I was 2 and my first cat when I was 11. I have been surrounded by animals all my life and I just love the idea of having an animal that you consider your best friend! I truly do not know a life without a pet and I think the world is a better place with them! I am currently home for the summer and working a part-time job! When i’m not at work, I’d love to hang out with your pet! While I am not offering boarding, I could absolutely take your pet for a car ride if they like them! We'll have a jam session together.

“Rebecca is the best! She knew we were worried about leaving our dog and sent pictures the entire time we were away. She genuinely cares about the pets she watches over. Duke was calm, happy and well cared for, even with a thunderstorm and a power outage. Would definitely recommend Rebecca to anyone needing a pet sitter.”

Kathy K.

“Gina and her pup, Dodger were wonderful with our Penny! Gina watched our 6 mo old GSP for several days in-house while I was in the office. Gina walked her let her out back, gave her treats, snuggles, love and taught her new tricks. And as a bonus, Penny met a new friend, Dodger who she loved playing with and snuggling during rest time. Gina was a great communicator. She sent me pictures and videos throughout the day. Gina is very trustworthy and reliable. Highly recommend Gina (and Dodger) for your next booking!”

About: I've had pets my whole life and currently have a cat who I love taking care of! I also am comfortable taking care of dogs. I work part time with flexible hours so I have lots of free time to take care of your pet! I'm free most mornings, afternoons and evenings. When I take care of a dog I'll take them for walks, clean up after them, play with them, and make sure they have food, water and plenty of attention.

“If I could give Sabrina more than 5 stars, I would. She cared for our four cats and one dog over a 16-day span while we were abroad in Japan, and saying she went above and beyond would be an understatement. Our pet care routine is very detailed and specific, but Sabrina followed every instruction to the letter—with love, diligence, and an incredible level of care that left us completely at ease the entire time we were away. From feeding the cats their two kibble meals and one wet food meal daily, to preparing our dog’s two meals of mixed kibble and wet food perfectly each time, Sabrina never missed a beat. She administered oral, liquid medication to one of our cats with great skill and consistency, and properly mixed our dog’s medication into her food so subtly that it never disrupted her eating habits. She even cleaned and changed all seven of the water dishes every other day as instructed, which we know is no small task with that many animals. She maintained exceptional food safety by using the dedicated pet sponge to clean up after every meal—something that truly speaks to her attention to detail and respect for our home. Speaking of which, she respected all our house rules and kept the home in pristine condition throughout her stay. Sabrina also took on our cat's weight loss play-regimen with enthusiasm and dedication, making sure all our cats stayed active daily. Thanks to her, the cats either maintained or continued their healthy weight loss, depending on their needs. When one of them (who tends to lose weight when stressed) dropped a bit too much, she thoughtfully provided extra treats throughout the day—helping her gain back just the right amount of weight by the time we returned. Two of our cats have long hair and require regular brushing to avoid matting. Sabrina not only kept up with their grooming schedule, but did such a great job that one of them, who has difficulties grooming himself, had minimal matting upon our return—an incredible improvement from what we've seen before. Despite balancing her schooling and a part-time job, Sabrina made it a priority to be home with the pets most of the day, every day—just like they’re used to. This was especially important for our more emotionally sensitive cat, who is prone to stress-related paw sores or excessive grooming. Thanks to Sabrina’s consistency, care, and timely medication, he showed no signs of stress-related behaviors at all. Her presence was clearly therapeutic. She also mastered our household’s delicate pre-feeding routine. When the cats would get a little too riled up, she calmly de-escalated the situation using a “time-out” method that worked so well, we’re continuing it ourselves now. It was genius and exactly what they needed. As for our dog—she was in heaven! Sabrina walked her three times a day plus a final outing before bed, making sure she never went too long without exercise or a potty break. We could tell from the photos just how happy she was. Oh yes—the photos. Every day, Sabrina sent us detailed reports of the pets’ activities, moods, and any small hiccups she faced, along with how she handled them. She also sent dozens of photos—candid moments, nap times, play sessions, walks—you name it. It brought us so much peace and joy to see them thriving in her care. When we returned, we were met with an immaculate home and very happy pets. In fact, every single one of them now runs up to greet her whenever she visits, including our one antisocial cat who typically avoids everyone. That kind of bond can’t be faked—it’s clear they truly love and trust her, just as we do. Our trip to Japan simply wouldn’t have been possible without Sabrina. Her dedication, responsibility, and compassion gave us complete confidence while we were away. We trust her deeply and genuinely respect and appreciate the person she is. Without question, we will continue to rely on her for any and all future travel plans. Sabrina is not just a pet sitter—she’s an extended part of our family now.”

“This is the second time Gabrielle has stayed in our home and cared for our 4 pets (2 dogs, 2 cats). We could not be more pleased with the care our pets received. It was evident that Gabrielle attended both to their safety and physical needs, as well as giving them lots of love and cuddles. Gabrielle was communicative with us during her stay and our home was in pristine condition upon our return. We hope Gabrielle is able to support our family again in the future!”
