Cat Sitting in Berkshire

About: I have two dogs of my own, a Newfoundland and a Border Collie/Aussie mix, so I’m very comfortable managing both giant breeds and high energy working dogs. Living with two very different personalities has given me hands on experience with grooming needs, exercise routines, training consistency, and understanding breed specific behaviors. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. From gentle giants to fast moving herders, I adapt my approach to what each dog needs to feel safe and happy. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. With two dogs at home, my days are structured around consistent feeding schedules, walks, exercise, training, and downtime. Because of this, adding additional pets into my schedule feels seamless rather than disruptive. I work remotely from home and have flexible hours, which allows me to accommodate drop in visits, walks, and overnight stays throughout the week. My schedule flexibility also means I can provide more consistent supervision and attention when needed. I prioritize reliability and clear communication, and I’m intentional about not overbooking so each pet receives the time and care they deserve. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check ins, or evening visits, I build my schedule around the needs of the pets in my care. Safety, consistency, and respect are my top priorities when caring for pets in a client’s home. I follow each pet’s established routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any household rules. Maintaining their normal structure helps reduce stress and keeps them comfortable while you’re away. I’m attentive to details, double check doors and gates, use secure leash handling, and prioritize calm, controlled walks. Through my volunteer work in service dog training and in shelter environments, I have experience working with groups of dogs in structured and higher stimulation settings. This has taught me how to read body language, manage energy levels, prevent conflict before it escalates, and handle situations calmly and confidently if tension arises. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. My goal is always to create a safe, stable environment where your pet feels secure, understood, and well cared for in their own home.

About: I've been taking care of dogs for about 5 years for friends and family. I walk, feed, and administer medication. I also love to play with your pups! We will play a lot of fetch, go to the dog park, make crafts, and get lots of belly rubs. I have also had to handle seizures on several occasions. I currently work full time in downtown Delaware from 8:00-4:30, give or take the commute to and from your home. However, my weekends typically consist of hanging out and giving pups lots of play time. I love getting out for a walk or the dog park when it’s nice. If it’s not nice outside, I love to cuddle with your pup and a movie. When at other homes, I keep the same level of respect I would expect from someone staying in my home. I respect privacy of homeowners and I always leave the house clean. I also provide lots of photos and videos of your pets playing, lounging, and walking.

About: Growing up with rescues and shelter dogs, ranging from 20-100lbs, I’ve always had a love for dogs. No matter what experience or pasts they have come from, I was always quick to form a bond with each pet my family and I have. Whether you are looking for someone to care for a senior dog needing a bit more patience and attention to medical needs, or an active and alert, playtime companion…you’ve found it with me! I have cared for family pets needing a special diet, set schedule and daily walks—to friends, coworkers and outside referrals for overnight stays or check in’s, and my favorite- walks! I believe that exercise is the best medicine and not to worry if your dog has certain triggers or lacks some leash manners. I can tailor walks to what your dog needs and enjoys. I can’t wait to meet your pup! I currently work in the office on a hybrid schedule 3x per week, so I have some flexibility during the week with times I can check in, and evenings are easy to schedule. My weekends are almost always available! In my home, I have a Pit/husky mix. However over the 8 years of being my own dog parent, I have hosted German shepards, Belgian malinois, hounds, and other pitbull mixes. I know how to administer medications and apply topical ointments if needed. I also understand if your pet(s) need certain accommodations or requests like avoiding other dogs on walks, and certain things he or she likes or doesn’t like.

“Thanks David & Co. You made us feel like she was in good hands:)”

“Our dog Hank had a great drop in visit with Josh! He won’t stop asking when he’ll see his new friend again. Josh was great! His communication is stellar and he spent some good quality time with our boy.”

About: I have grown up with two dogs and two cats my whole life. I have helped my neighbor with their dog a few times, but I have mainly helped my parents the most. When they are gone on weekends or even for long weeks, I will watch all of our animals and help take care/look after them during the times they are gone. I have put 3 years of experience because I didn't start helping out as much till the end of high school and into college. I do work a part time summer job. My availability can change day to day. Reach out and I can be as flexible as possible. I have two dogs who are well fed and taken care of. I tend to play with them as much as possible and lay with them and give cuddles. My cats get the same treatment and all the animals are very very spoiled when it comes to toys, food, and love.

“Carrie took care of my dog, Jesse Lee, while I was on a day trip. I could tell by the pictures she sent my boy was enjoying his care giver. Some of his favorite places and things were in those pictures. Most impressive to me about Carrie is that she gives her full attention to the dog. Thanks to Carrie we both had a wonderful day!”

About: I’ve been a proud dog and cat mom for more than 40 years. I spent three decades in the corporate world — often working long hours or traveling for business. Leaving my fur kids behind was always the hardest part, especially when it came to finding someone I could truly trust to love and care for them the way I would. ​ That experience inspired me to offer pet care built on trust, compassion, and genuine love for animals. Knowing that you can head out for the day (or that much-needed vacation) with total peace of mind — that’s what makes this work so rewarding. ​ I grew up in southwestern Ohio, where I began pet sitting in my neighborhood at the age of 13. My lifelong love of animals has led me to volunteer with local humane societies and rescue groups, and I've also been a foster mom. Our most recent "foster fail" is Pippa, a sassy one-year-old ginger kitty. Our fur family also includes two tabby cats, Bo and Cledus, who we adopted as kittens four years ago), and two rowdy pups who are also rescues, Wally (age 12) and Milo (age 2), bothShih Tzu mixes. I'm retired from my corporate marketing career and work a part-time job a few days a week. That leaves plenty of time for drop-in visits or to take your fur baby on a walk. I'm in the neighborhood, which means I'm nearby when you need unexpected help. I'm happy to provide loving care when you can't be there. I have a senior dog who has some medical issues that require extra attention. I also have a young pup who demands lots of attention, including daily walks. I'm experienced in the full spectrum of dog care. My dogs are leash-trained and crate trained. I also have 3 cats, ranging from 1 to 4 years and have experience brushing, feeding, hairball treating, litter box cleaning and playing.

“Fantastic! We’re so appreciative of your quick action after the storm, going back to the house to make sure Billie was ok. We can’t thank you enough for keeping our girl safe.”

About: I have been around animals my entire life and always have adored them! I have 5 of my own dogs, three of them I have had since they were puppies:) I raised 11 puppies when I was 18 and can handle any messes or anything that comes my way! I am self employed and make my own hours so I am available during the week and weekends! Pet care is a big part of my life. I will always ensure to create a comfortable and welcoming space for your animals as I know it can be stressful for both you and your baby!

“Kristine is a wonderful communicator and cared for my pup just as well as I would. 🫶🏽”

About: Being a pet owner myself I know how important it is to have someone takecare of your fur babies while you're away. Someone who can shower them with attention, care and love. With over a decade's experience I'm trusted by families to provide a safe, loving and dependable care for pets of all ages. I am currently at home full time and hence have ample time to cater to these babies. Over night stays, day care or custom schedules available to fit your pet's needs. I have a friendly dog who can keep your fur baby company. We'll go out for walks, explore the neighborhood and do much more apart from just the regular potty breaks. They'll always be under supervision.

About: I grew up with both cats and dogs as well as living with both in my adult years. I do also have experience pet/house sitting in the past. I currently do not have a pet at the moment as my cat passed about a year ago. I am looking forward to be able to meet and get to play with cats and dogs! I do work full-time during the week but am available on the weekends for house-sitting, drop-in visits, or dog walking. I will open up availability for walking or drop-in visits during the evenings throughout the week. I will be able to watch your pets in your home as well as do drop-in visits in your home. This will include doing walks or playing.

About: I am a dog mom to two dogs my Golden Retriever Charlie who is 7 and my Boston Terrier Pit mix Thumper who is 5. I have experience training both of my dogs as puppies as well as assisting friends and family with theirs. I grew up around animals and enjoy horse back riding, going on hikes with my dogs, and sitting for friends and family! I have experience with dogs as big as German Shepherds and Pit bulls as well as small Yorkies and chihuahuas. I love going on walks with the dogs that I watch and making sure they get some snuggles in! I can’t wait to meet your fur babies and spend time with them. I do work full-time but have flexibility in the evening/morning/and on weekends to assist with your needs. I can also assist with vacation check ins! Spending time with your fur babies would consist of walks, interactive play with their favorite toys to help get some energy out, meals as needed, and a quick treat training sessions for young puppies who are learning. Specific needs can be discussed as needed!
