House Sitting in Blackwood

“I cannot recommend Syd highly enough! She stayed at my home for two weeks while I was away and took amazing care of my Leo. From the moment I left, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. She kept me updated, gave Leo plenty of love, attention and care, and treated him like he was her own. Not only did she take wonderful care of Leo, but she also looked after the fish, watered my plants, and kept my house in great shape. Coming home to a happy dog and a well-cared-for home was such a relief. She went above and beyond in every way, and I would absolutely book her again. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring, Syd is the one!”

“Emili and Peter did a wonderful job taking care of my two dogs for the weekend. They stayed over night, which is a hard find. They were very punctual, accommodating, respectful, and my dogs were super happy! We can't wait to book our next appointment with them.”

“I recommend Dani to take care of your fur babies, I was very nervous leaving my fur baby and she took such good care of him as if he was her own. We will definitely use her again.”

“Renee is a gem. I almost don’t want to give her a good review so no one snatches her up! But here I am doing the right thing. Super sweet and clearly loves my dogs who get along great with her. Will definitely be booking with her any time I’m going away!”

“This is a five star human being!!! my travels required me to leave before Dani was to arrive. There was some minor chaos when she arrived being a new venue and canine companion. Because I was traveling by air, I did not get to speak to her until after the fact… when we finally connected, she explained in full detail everything that transpired and that it had been handled and her and Rocky were enjoying a TV program!!! Dani is an extremely responsible, capable friend, friendly assistant! Rocky has already put in a request for her return !!!! Our home was in better organization than when I left!! Extremely awesome experience!!!”

“Mallory did a great job. Everyone seemed to be in great shape when we got home. The house was in order. No pictures were sent. However, we were on a ship and had little or no internet service. So, we had no complaints. Would hire her again.”

About: Hi there! I am a pet lover and have thought of ways to incorporate my passion for pets into my work life and found this was the best way I am currently working day time hours but I am available around the clock. My hours are flexible and I can fine tune my schedule to fit the needs of those that need immediate help or short notice I have lots of love and compassion for your fur babies. I have 2 tabby kittens that love to play and are very friendly !!

“We’re so grateful we found Kalea. She stayed in our home and took amazing care of our two Labs while we were away over the 4th of July. She stuck to their routine, which really helped keep them calm and happy, especially during a stressful time. It was obvious they got tons of love and attention while we were gone. We came home to two very content pups! We’ll definitely be booking with her again — highly recommend!”

About: I have 5 + years of experience working with dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, & age. But i don’t just feed and walk—I build trust, provide companionship, and stick closely to the routines that make your pet feel safe. I communicate consistently, send updates, and treat every animal as if they were my own.” I’m currently working 2 other part time jobs that lets me have a very flexible schedule accommodating to pet owners needs and wants even if it’s a quick drop in or overnight stay! Im confident in handling all types of temperaments, sticking to precise routines, and responding calmly to any situation. Pet owners trust me because I communicate clearly, pay attention to detail, and consistently deliver exceptional care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities.

About: I’ve taken care of lots of animals including dogs for over 13 years! In addition to caring for my own animals, I have been relied on by others to care for their pets as well. I consistently work on training with both my dog and cat. Currently, my dog Nani is learning to search for edible mushrooms on our hikes! I work remotely and make my own schedule so I have lots of flexibility/availability throughout the week! My work allows me to take time during the day to go on walks or to work on training/socializing as needed. I have my own friendly dog and cat who are very active. We go on lots of walks and play throughout the day. My focus is creating healthy stimulation and activities for our pets.

About: I’ve taken care of pets my entire life, there’s always been a dog in my household. When I moved out on my own I had my first cat. I have done everything from bathing, cutting nails, pilling, to bottle feeding kittens. I currently have three dogs and six cats. I am comfortable and familiar with walking dogs, feeding dogs (up to six at a time), play time visits, feeding cats, cleaning litter boxes, feeding & caring for small critters such as mice, giving out treats, cutting nails. All requests welcome! I work 100% remote and my schedule is very flexible! Reach out to me with your needs and we can work together to make the best fit for us both! My animals are not short on affection or attention. I typically take my dogs on one walk a day coupled with hours of free time in the back yard. My kitties get special play time separate from the dogs and are snuggled to their liking. For my clients I spend a minimum of 30 minutes on my visits allowing the pups to get their zoomies out and get lots of pets.

“Starr did an amazing job with my dog who has severe separation anxiety. She sent daily updates, pictures and videos. Starr was quick to respond and easily accommodated changes. Will definitely use her again!!”

“We just got back from a short weekend away for my wife's B-Day and this was the first time we found and used Serena for petsitting. We can't say enough GOOD about her all around! We have a 10 month old Mini Bernadoodle and an 8 year old Bernadoodle who seemed to be very well taken care of and HAPPY when we returned. Our home was also well maintained and was as we left it when we left on vacation. Our last shot at this didn't go so well and needed to find a new sitter which is why I feel the need to post this about Serena.....she was wonderful, so down to earth, very trust worthy and we certainly will be using her again! ;)”

About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my 32 years of experience, beginning in my teenage years when I cared for neighbors’ dogs. As a dog owner myself, I hold myself to high standards and treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. Due to working in a school full time, I have the most availability in the summer and winter breaks. In addition, I am available evenings for drop ins and weekends for house sitting. At the present time, I am not offering boarding- but this is subject to change. My three year old golden retriever lives with me and is always eager to make new friends, ensuring a fun and social environment for your dog. Based in NEPA, I focus on providing personalized, loving care for each dog I look after. I look forward to hearing from you! If you choose house sitting, please note that I do need to bring my well behaved quiet golden retriever. I do have a travel dog crate I can bring to keep her confined for your peace of mind. As someone who loves pets and takes great pride in caring for my own, pet care is always a top priority in my daily routine. When it comes to your pet, it becomes my first obligation as well. I follow a strict feeding schedule for my one dog—once at 7 a.m. and again at 5 p.m; meanwhile, my other dog is a graze eater and has food in her dish 24/7. We also dedicate at least an hour to play, whether it’s fetching a ball, relaxing while watching TV, or playing with stuffed animals, sometimes more often than not a lot more than an hour. Rest assured, your pet will receive all the care and love they deserve! I prioritize a consistent schedule and routine for both my pets and client pets, which includes regular feeding, playtime, relaxation, and walks. Safety is my top priority, and I ensure that your pet is well cared for in a secure environment. In my home or yours, I have crates, multiple rooms, and gates available to provide space for pets to relax if they need some time alone or if they become too rambunctious. Rest assured, your pet will be safe, comfortable, and well attended to while in my care. I cultivate a more homey environment for my pets and dogs I watch, which sets me apart from kennel life.

“Stella was great. Came out before hand for a "meet and greet" with the dog. During her stay, she provided updates on how my dog was doing. She also administered his medicine as I had asked. I came back to a clean home. Would use her again.”
