House Sitting in Bergton

“I'm almost afraid to leave an honest review. BECAUSE, I WANT TO BE ABLE TO BOOK HIM AGAIN! And I don't want him to be too busy. He did a wonderful job with our dog and our house. Saxon got all the exercise he needed, then apparently slept the afternoon away. Our home looked exactly how we left it. Maybe even better. Finn came for a meet and greet with Saxon and asked great questions about what Saxon likes and does not do, or should no do. We were very pleased and would definitely book him again.”

About: Welcome to my profile! I have been caring for + rehabilitating animals into thriving health my entire life. Having grown up with dogs, cats, chickens, and wild animals, I understand that our furry friends are members of the family and need the highest level of care possible. I have experience walking and caring for dogs and cats of any size and age. When on walks or caring for pets, I am committed to giving them my undivided attention (no texting and walking!) and treat them as I would my own. Happy to accommodate for animals with special needs. I live on a large property and am able to provide animals with an abundance of exercise, fresh air, and activity! Thorough walks guaranteed. A tired dog is a happy dog! My love and passion for animals transfers into the high quality care I provide. With my experience in rehabilitating unwell animals, I can provide thorough and holistic care + attention towards every need. My intention is to up level their quality of life with my care! I look forward to giving many belly rubs soon! I am an extremely active person and spend many hours outdoors with community. Due to this, animals thrive with me and our weekly fun activities. I am extremely clean, organized, and can offer extraordinary house-sit care, along with attentive and loving care for your animal + plant friends. I can offer consistent exercise for your animal friends, as well.

“Darian was amazing! She house sat for our three cats, two dogs, and backyard chickens. She gave us peace of mind knowing she was responsible, caring, and professional. She really cared for our animals like they were her own. We will definitely be asking her to take care of our girls again in the future and I would recommend her to anyone.”

About: Hi, I’m Amber! I’m a lifelong animal lover based in Harrisonburg, VA, offering dependable care for dogs and cats of all breeds and ages. Whether your pet is a high-energy pup or a calm senior cat, I adapt to their unique needs and routines to keep them happy and stress-free while you're away. I offer dog walking, house sitting, and drop-in visits—all in your home, where your pet feels safest. I work remotely and is I do need to travel for work it is always in the area and I know in advance, so I’m able to be present and flexible when caring for your pet. My approach is simple: I follow your pet’s usual schedule—walks, meals, meds, naps, even bedtime cuddles—so they feel secure and loved. Your pet is my priority when they’re in my care, and I treat every visit like I’m caring for my own. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet—I’d love to get to know you and your pet! I work from home with a flexible schedule and can usually adjust my day around your pet’s needs. I do travel occasionally, but I always know my plans in advance and won’t take on bookings I can’t fully commit to. Feel free to message me—I'm happy to confirm specific dates or times! I believe pets feel safest and happiest in their own familiar environment, so I provide care exclusively in your home. I’m respectful of your space and always aim to leave things just as I found them—or better. Whether I’m dropping in, walking your dog, or staying overnight, I stick closely to your pet’s routine so they stay comfortable and relaxed. I take the time to learn each pet’s preferences, habits, and quirks, and I always prioritize their safety, well-being, and happiness. You can count on regular updates, photos, and honest communication while you’re away, so you have peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring hands.

“Lauren was a fantastic in-home cat sitter for 4 days while I was away. She was communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates!!! Will 100% be booking her again.”

About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to gentle older dogs, such as my own. I tailor my approach to each animal’s needs. What sets me apart is my calm, patient energy and attention to detail—I don’t just watch pets, I get to know them. I have experience with basic training reinforcement, senior pet care (including administering oral medications), and making nervous animals feel safe and loved. Whether it’s a long walk, structured playtime, or simply keeping a routine, I care for every pet like they’re my own. As a college student home for the summer, I have a flexible and open schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. With no classes or school obligations right now, I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits—whatever fits your pet’s routine best. I love spending my summer surrounded by animals, and I’m fully committed to giving each pet the time and attention that they need. Safety and trust are my top priorities in every pet care situation. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect their space and routines to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I follow all owner instructions carefully—from feeding schedules to medication dosages—to ensure consistency and well-being. I always secure doors, windows, and any potential hazards to create a safe environment. As for staying in my home, I unfortunately cannot have other pets coming and staying with me, due to the amount of allergies in my household and my older dog that is living with me

About: I have loved all animals since I could remember. I have been dog sitting/walking for years and am known to be very reliable and dependable! I move in on August 15th and I am a fall sport athlete. With that being said, I will be very busy from August to beginning of November. But, please do not hesitate to reach out. I will try my best to work around my schedule to provide the best care. I have one dog at home. I feed him twice a day, walk him, and let him out multiple times a day whenever he scratches at the door. I would keep your home clean and organized whenever I care for your pup!

About: I grew up with a variety of animals, including several senior dogs. I fostered several dogs through the SPCA throughout my time in college, and am comfortable with a variety of behavioral and medical needs. I currently have two dogs of my own, one of which is a rescue. I work remotely, so I’m flexible to check on your furry friends throughout the day. If I do have standing weekly meetings, I’ll be sure to communicate those times so you know when I’ll be by. I do not do sitting in my home due to the reactivity of one of my dogs. I am very conscientious and careful with pets, and will make sure to watch your pet with a close eye, crate when needed, and utilize leash and outdoor safety skills when outside of your home.

“Aamirah is wonderful!! She was an absolute delight to work with- very sweet, kind, and responsible. I would absolutely book her again!”

My main objective is to earn is some extra cash while doing something easy and fun that I enjoy, during my free time.

“Moriah combines adroit technical expertise with amazing cat whisperer mojo. Our cat Casino needs to use an Aerokat steroid inhaler to control his severe asthma. (Steroid pills have twice given him diabetes.) It took me months to get to the point where Casino would sit beside me and take nine breaths while I held a rubber mask over his face. It’s tricky, and you can’t force it, because if he has an aversive experience, next time he may refuse altogether. Moriah had never used an Aerokat before. Although Moriah uses a similar device with her daughter, and has a lot of veterinary experience, our vet was skeptical, and advised that Moriah come over several times before we left, to learn and practice with Casino. This was not possible. Moriah said to just send her a video showing what Casino and I do with the Aerokat. So we did. Our first night on the road, Moriah sent a video of herself and Casino using the Aerokat PERFECTLY, all 9 breaths!!! In other matters too, she did a great job assessing and handling the situation. I would trust her to look after any special needs animal.”

He enjoys his time on my front lawn via a simple shock collar and has free roam within my home.
