House Sitting in Avert

“We were very happy with the care Emma provided for our dog, Cooper, in our home. She gave us feedback, was reliable, and was very pleasant. She asked questions and seemed to genuinely care for our dog. We would be glad to have her back.”

About: With me, your pet is guaranteed to receive personalized, loving care. Growing up in a large, close-knit family, I've been surrounded by dogs from an early age, and they've always been an integral part of my life. My experience in raising dogs all my life has made me highly attuned to their needs. I currently have a loving American Bulldog named Apollo, who you'll see under the orange cover in my profile gallery, along with other dogs I've cared for in the past. I've been dog sitting for years, and it’s more than just a job—it's a passion. I understand how important dogs are to a family, having experienced firsthand the comfort and joy they bring to our lives. When caring for your pet, I prioritize keeping you informed with regular pictures and updates, so you can feel at ease knowing your furry friend is happy and well cared for. I tailor my care to your pet’s specific needs and your preferences, so just let me know your pups fav trails and playtime activities and I’m happy to accommodate. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to offer dog walks, play dates, and dog sitting at your home, including overnight stays if needed. I always take the time to understand your pet’s routine and habits, ensuring they receive the best care possible while you're away. I work Mon-Fri. But have the flexibility to leave multiple times throughout the day. I am able to do overnight stays Sunday - Saturday as long as you are comfortable with a sitter that has a 9-5. Open to taking the kids to the park, on a nice walk or even a small trial hike! Whatever meets your needs as a parent. Unfortunately I am not open to overnight sitting services within my own home. I can however bring your pet for a play date with my own dog or bring them to my house for a temporary moment of time.

About: What sets me apart is my professional experience and deep-rooted passion for animals. I worked as a veterinary technician for over two years, giving me hands-on experience with pets of all temperaments and health needs. I’m confident giving medications, recognizing signs of illness, and providing gentle, attentive care. I’ve had animals my whole life and currently have two spoiled cats of my own, so I truly understand how much pets are family. I treat every animal I care for like one of my own—with love, patience, and lots of belly rubs (if they’re into that!) At the moment, I work full-time Monday through Friday, so I primarily offer pet sitting and dog walking services on the weekends. However, I’m happy to accommodate early morning or evening visits during the week whenever possible. As I build relationships with clients and understand their needs, I’m open to being flexible and adjusting my availability. Providing reliable, loving care is important to me, and I’ll always do my best to work with your schedule. I care for every pet as if they were my own—with lots of attention, patience, and respect for their individual needs. My own two cats are incredibly loved and well cared for—they have cat trees, scratchers, toys galore, and all the cozy spots (and treats!) their hearts desire. Because they’re so used to having their space, I currently only offer care in clients’ homes to ensure a safe and stress-free environment for everyone involved. That said, I’m open to discussing in-home boarding in the future on a case-by-case basis. Above all, I prioritize each pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness, whether I’m caring for them in their home or eventually in mine.

About: I've been an exotics/small animal vet tech for 5+ years. I have plenty experience in administering medication. My passion is animals, caring for them at home and at work. Understanding your pets' needs is my top priority. I'm currently working full-time, but my schedule is very flexible, giving me plenty of time to care and play with your pets at any point. I have a half-fenced in yard, for potty breaks and play time, which I am always present for. I have 1 dog, 1 cat, and 2 chinchillas, and 2 guinea pigs to accompany your fur babies in any activities.

“Donna is wonderful as a dog/housesitter. We will have her back in a hearbeat. We have more than dogs and Donna took care of all our pets and our home. Really felt Donna went above and beyond.”

About: Ive taken care of my neighbors cats and walked other friends dogs multiple times and I've always loved all kinds of animals I've also taken care of my brothers snake before as well I'm available to walk, drop in or even house sit all kinds of animals. I can do it mainly during the day but I can also do house sitting that requires over night stays I can't have other dogs to come over to my house due to having 2 other dogs and 3 cats in the house so I can't bring them here. But I have plenty of experience caring for them in other environments

About: Hey there, I offer dog walking, sitting, and drop in visits for dogs and cats! For a job, I work in a doggy daycare and care for anywhere from 10-20 dogs. From German Shepards who need exercise, to Yorkies who need extra care, or even just a mix, if you've got a dog that needs an affordable care taker, I'll be able to help. Also, I do photography and love taking pictures of the dogs I sit and walk so just let me know if you want some pictures of how the day is going! I enjoy hiking, walking, and playing frisbee in my backyard. I am located in the Cape/Jackson area and would love to take your pup on a hike through the many trails in this area. I am available on weekdays and nights and also on the weekends if you give me at least 2 days heads up. I can do as many drop in visits as you would like and that includes walking them. I am only available to stay overnight on Friday and Saturday.

About: I've had cats and dogs most of my life. Recently, I only have a kitten at home currently, but I've cared for all ages and sometimes even special needs animals. I have my kitten on a timed eating schedule with wet food to help her get all the nutrients she needs. She also has toys for stimulation, and I play with her daily to increase her stamina and decrease pet depression. For cats, I keep them indoors and make sure they have enough stimulation in their environment. For dogs, it would depend on the weather, the backyard setup, and the specific care that each different individual animal may need.
