House Sitting in Bayberry

“Trix did a great job watching our dogs for the week. She was very responsive to communication, arrived on time, and sent frequent updates. My one dog was having some stomach problems and had an accident in the house. Trix handled this great, kept us informed without panicking, and allowed us to continue to enjoy our time away. Will be using again.”

“Maria is reliable, communicates clearly and often, and noted all the details we had left her to care for our pups. She handled them with care and learned each one’s nuances. The transition back home after our extended vacation was smooth and our pups were in step with their regular routine. We would highly recommend Maria to anyone!”

“Lee is a great house/pet sitter for us!! She is very conscientious and responsible. She communicates well and goes above and beyond to care for pets as requested. We’d have her back in a heartbeat!”

“Nora is truly exceptional, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She took care of my dogs, Lucy and Betty, and went above and beyond in every possible way. During her time with them, an unexpected and serious fight broke out—their first ever—and it was a terrifying situation. Nora handled it with incredible professionalism, calmness, and expertise. She acted immediately, knowing exactly what to do without hesitation, and managed the situation safely and responsibly. I was so grateful she was the one there in that moment. She even had a first aid kit on hand and was able to tend to their wounds right away, which gave me immense peace of mind. What meant just as much was her communication throughout the entire ordeal. She kept me informed every step of the way with clarity, compassion, and reassurance during what was a very scary time for all of us. Her thoughtfulness and transparency made an enormous difference. I trust Nora completely and wholeheartedly. She demonstrated not only skill and preparedness, but genuine care and dedication. Anyone would be incredibly lucky to have her looking after their pets. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone seeking truly outstanding care for their furbabies.”

“Nicole was great with our dog Cassie. She followed our instructions for walking and feeding and sent plenty of pictures. The house was as clean as when we left. Cassie was happy to make a new friend and if Cassie's happy, we're happy. We will definitely use Nicole again.”

“Jenna was great- responsive, friendly and responsible. Sitting my skittish, introverted rescue pup takes an extra level, and I really appreciate her knowledge and comfort around animals!”

About: I’ve been a pet sitter for many years for friends/ neighbors in my home and theirs. I have had pets since I’m 5. I have A great love for animals. I’ve been a foster and have 3 pets of my own right now. I am also part of the rescue community and volunteer to help homeless pets. I promise to take care of your pet as if it was my own. I will walk your dogs as long as they have a harness and/ or watch your dog or cats. I’m a special education teacher, so I’m very experienced with behavior modification. I look forward to hearing from you and having the opportunity to care for your pets. Have a purrrfect tailwagging kind of day!! ThanksSue and be I will take your dog for walks, love them, Snuggle. I can also keep them company in their own home too. I do drop ins. I am retired, I’m available on most days and times. I can usually manage my schedule around your needs. Let me know when your fur baby needs someone to take care of them. I only take 1-2 dogs for daycare. I feel I offer a calmer environment for those clients and dogs who don’t want to place their dogs with many other dogs during the day. I can give them a lot more attention. I can also care for your dog for longer hours past regular daycare hours. It is for this reason I have extended time rates at 5.00 for each additional hour past 9 hours. I have a fully 6 ft fenced in yard. I watch them when they are outside. I can play with them inside or out depending on the weather. I keep my gate locked. I’m retired so my days are pretty flexible . I can play with them inside or in the backyard. If it’s too hot or cold we stay in. My yard is completely fenced in with a 6 ft wooden fence. They are like family when they stay with us. Let me know if any special needs.i also take guinea pigs and rabbits.

“Molly was fantastic! She communicated well, she sent daily updates, and our dogs seemed so happy with her stay. Can't recommend Molly enough!”

About: What sets me apart is my experience working with dogs of all personalities and needs, especially reactive dogs and strong pullers. I have completed training with my own reactive chocolate lab through Justin’s Canine Campus, along with continuing training work at home, which has taught me patience, consistency, and how to read dog behavior closely. As a teacher, I’m dependable, calm, and attentive, and I naturally bring those qualities into caring for pets. I’ve loved animals since I was young and also continue to volunteer at animal shelters (Helping Hounds & HumaneCNY) giving me experience with dogs who may need extra patience, structure, or reassurance. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. As a teacher, I have summers off and will soon be working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime, and quality attention. During the school year, I’m also an early bird and start my mornings with an average 2-mile walk with my own dog, so staying active and keeping pets on a routine is something I truly enjoy. I care for every pet as if they were my own and always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In a client’s home, I try to keep pets on their normal routine with feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention and affection. I also make sure their space stays clean and that they feel calm while their owners are away.

“Julie was an absolute dream. She was VERY attentive, loving, organized and easy to communicate and work with. I would HIGHLY recommend her!!”

About: I have extensive experience in pet care. My fenced backyard offers a safe and spacious environment for dogs to play, and in the summer they can even enjoy swimming. During the first few days of their stay, I usually prepare a special fried rice and beef mix to help them adjust to the new environment. Some dogs also enjoy a small ice cream treat after meals. I am truly dedicated to ensuring that every pet feels comfortable, happy, and well-cared for while staying with me. Pet care is naturally built into my daily routine. I follow a consistent schedule every day: morning feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, and a short walk. Throughout the day, I provide playtime, mental stimulation, and regular check-ins to make sure every pet is comfortable and safe. In the evenings, I do another walk, feeding, and quiet bonding time. On a weekly basis, I clean and sanitize pet areas, wash bedding, and review each pet’s needs so I can keep their routine as close as possible to what they’re used to at home. In My Home: I provide a structured, safe, and comfortable environment. Pets follow a consistent routine including regular feeding times, potty breaks, supervised play, and walks. I give each pet a designated rest area with clean bedding, fresh water, and personal space. I supervise pets closely and make sure they never access unsafe areas or open doors. I keep the home clean, calm, and pet-friendly at all times. In Clients’ Homes: I maintain each pet’s routine exactly as the owner requests. I follow their feeding schedule, walking pattern, training rules, and preferred daily habits. I send regular updates, photos, and reports to give owners peace of mind. I respect the home, keep everything tidy, and ensure all doors, gates, and crates are secured after every visit. My focus is always on safety, consistency, and keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment.

“Allison took great care of my fur babies! She took them on last-minute and did great with all my detailed instructions for caring for them, haha! I’d definitely recommend her if you’re looking for someone who is kind and understands dogs’ needs!”

“Great with both my puppy and senior dog”

About: I have experience in wildlife rehabilitation, zookeeping, managing horses. I’m comfortable doing most basic animal care for a variety of animals and happy to learn about anything I haven’t had experience with. Dogs, cats, reptiles, hoofstock, poultry and so on! My schedule is fairly flexible with some notice. Available early mornings, late nights and in between. I am happy to adjust my schedule based on each animal’s routine and needs. I am attentive and observant of each animal’s needs and routines. Happy to follow specific schedules and tasks to adhere to their normal care standards. While I do have a yard, it is unfenced so dogs go out on a leash unless they have exceptional recall. Often joking or walks around the neighborhood. All animal’s are crated or otherwise contained when left alone for short periods and always separated at feeding times.

“Kendra was so lovely to work with - she was friendly, understanding, and communicative. She was great about checking in with regular updates, and she took excellent care of our dogs and our home while we were away. Would definitely love to work with her again!”

Rebecca G.

“So grateful for John! Very understanding of the difficulties I had leaving my Luna for the first time like this - sent me multiple texts, pictures and videos assuring me she was doing well and happy. Very flexible with my schedule and made the point to come meet Luna ahead of time on a previous day. Very attentive to Luna's schedule and her specific little quirks. Luna clearly enjoyed her time, giving John a super speed tail wag and some kisses before we left.”

“Adrianna stayed at our home to watch our two dogs at our cat while we were out of town for several days. She kept us updated daily with messages and pet photos, giving us great sense of peace that our home and pets were looked after. Thank you again for your wonderful service, Adrianna!”
