Dog Sitting Blaine

“Colby was great. He was able to help us out at the last second with two drop in visits. Colby was prompt, friendly, and took great care of our pup. She was a happy doggo when we arrived home. The play pics let us know Dottie was in good hands. Definitely recommend.”

“Alyssa was very communicative and worked with my hectic schedule for a meet and greet. My cat is happy and content and I would 100% book her again.”

About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life and have always had dogs as part of my family. Over the years, I’ve also pet and house sat for numerous families, caring for dogs with different personalities, routines, and needs. My husband and I currently have three dogs of our own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. Since my husband works from home, our dogs are well cared for while I’m able to dedicate my time and attention to your furry family members. I’m available for drop-in visits and overnight stays, and I strive to provide the same love, consistency, and care that your pets receive when you’re home. Having had a few disappointing experiences with pet sitters myself, I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets in someone else’s care. That’s why I’m committed to providing dependable communication, treating your home with respect, and making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’ll tailor my care to what makes them happiest. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and ensure your pets are excited to see me every time I visit. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. With a flexible schedule, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time to walks, playtime, potty breaks, feedings, and, of course, lots of love and attention. I plan my day around the pets I’m caring for so they can stick to their normal routine and receive the care they deserve. Whether it’s a drop-in visit or overnight companionship, I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and never rushed. When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I’ll follow your instructions closely, whether that means sticking to a feeding schedule, administering medication, going for walks, or giving them plenty of playtime and affection. I treat every home with the same respect I would my own, keeping it clean, secure, and leaving it just as I found it. I’ll make sure doors and gates are locked and pets are safely leashed or contained when needed. I also know how reassuring it is to hear that your pets are doing well while you’re away, so I’ll provide regular updates and photos. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your pets are safe, happy, and receiving the same love and attention they’re used to at home.

About: (PSA - I’m married! So if you don’t mind a couple watching your pets, we’ll be more than happy to serve you! The below agreement will still apply, of course; there’s just a second set of hands. I can also watch your home and pets solo if that’s what you prefer. 🥰) Home/Pet Owner Satisfaction Agreement: - My personal motto is "Leave it better than you found it." - Your home will be taken care as if it was my own. - I will do light cleaning and even landscaping if needed, so your home stays well kept. - Your pets will receive the attention they deserve. - I will do my absolute best to make sure their daily routine stays the same as if you were home. - I will send you all the pictures and updates, so you can have peace of mind that your pets are happy, safe, and well taken care of. - If you ask me to do something, it will get done. - When you return home, you'll be able to rest immediately because your home will be clean and your pets happy (though definitely excited to see you again!). I always don't trust people easily, and I usually rely on myself a lot to get things done. So it'd be scary for me to have a stranger taking care of my home and pets. I'd worry constantly over my furry family. That's why I try to immediately put you at ease during our initial conversation and respect your home and pet(s). I grew up with pets (hence the 20 years of experience), so I am definitely an animal lover. I've also house/pet sit here on Rover and by word-of-mouth referrals for two years now and already have 32 reviews of pleased home and pet owners. After reading the reviews on my profile and browsing the photo gallery (Get ready for cuteness overload and not from me!), here's how you can work with me: 1. Send me a message. 2. In that message, tell me about your pets, their needs, and what dates you'll be gone. 3. We'll adjust the pricing if needed. 4. Before finalizing the booking, I will meet you and your pet(s) in your home for you to walk me through the daily routine and see if we're a good fit. 5. If both parties agree, we confirm the booking. It's that easy! Thank you so much in advance for trusting me with your home and pet(s)! In return, I will strive to take the best care of your home and pet(s). So that you won't loose any sleep worrying if they're okay or not. That way, you can actually enjoy your vacation or fully focus on business and/or family while you're gone. I work remotely full time as a writer and freelance marketer, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I’m completely available any day for whatever you need and will be able to give your home and pet(s) the attention they deserve. I will follow whatever instructions you give to a T. As a creative person, my brain can be scattered, but having instructions in a text or list helps a ton. That way, you have utmost peace of mind that your home and pet(s) are receiving the best care!

About: I have always grown up with dogs, since I was a young child I have shared the responsibilities of caring for a family dog. We have always had Bernese Mountain Dogs, so I am particularly adept at caring for active, very large dogs. Growing up I always cared for friend's, family's, and neighbors dogs while they were away on trips, or busy with work. This gave me the ability to care for a diverse profile of dogs with diverse, individualized needs. I am responsible and will closely follow the instructions left to provide your animal with the care it requires. While my experience is primarily with dogs, I also have experience caring for cats for my friends and family as well. In addition to providing your pet with high-quality care, I will also ensure that it feels secure, safe, and loved, even in your temporary absence. I have experience with dogs with high- anxiety, specifically separation anxiety, and I know how to calm your pet in these scenarios. Being apart from your furry loved one can be a time of anxiety for both you and your pet, but I will be sure to provide exceptional care to ease the anxieties of all involved. Overall, I am extremely loving, caring, and responsible, and feel I am an excellent choice to care for your pet. I am currently a Physician Assistant student, so I am busy during most of the day from 8-4, however I have breaks and can stop by to let your dog out or have a romp with them if needed. Other than that, my evenings, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays are entirely open, allowing me to dedicate much attention to your pet! I will be sure to accurately and closely follow all instructions that you leave regarding your pets care. I am comfortable with crating dogs if that is your desire. I am also quite adept at "pet proofing' your or my home before leaving, to ensure there is no trouble your animal could get into. My home has a fenced in yard and one very friendly Bernese Mountain Dog, though I could make arrangements for him to reside elsewhere during your pets stay if that is your desire.

“Nate provided excellent care for our three cats over the holidays. He was communicative and sent lots of photos. We wouldn't hesitate to rebook!”

Kelli M.

“Adeline checked in on our 2 dogs and cat while I had a last minute overnight night trip and needed someone to let the dogs out for a potty break and feed and water for the night. Adeline was so kind in agreeing to care for them last minute and sent updates at each check in. She even brought in packages that were delivered without me having to ask so it wasn’t sitting in the front porch all day.”

Lindsey R.

“She was so great to our 3mo pup who had to come on vacation because she’s still too young for boarding. She was easy to communicate with, came to our cabin, and was very kind to our babe.”

Chelsea R.

“Heather was amazing with my senior cat who needs daily medications. She was great at providing updates on each one of her visits and being flexible with some of my cat's peculiar habits.”

Vern H.

“Tia is absolutely amazing. She truly goes above and beyond, making my anxious pup feel safe and loved while I’m away. I will always refer Tia to anyone I know needing a reliable & kind sitter for their fur babies. 💛”

About: Hi everyone! 😊 I’m offering dog walking and drop-in pet visits in the area! I’ve been around animals my whole life and absolutely love caring for them. I’m comfortable with all kinds of dogs and always take the time to learn what each pet needs to feel happy and safe. I have three pups of my own, a female corgi (the boss who only likes people), a male shepherd mix who thinks he’s in Paw Patrol 👮😂🚓), and my beagle mix boy who is the sweetest and tries to follow his little nose and run away on an adventure every chance he gets!). So I totally understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. I’m currently home full-time, so I have a very flexible schedule and can potentially help out with last-minute needs. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, or just someone to check-in and give them some love, I’ve got you covered! I’m happy to stick to your pet’s normal routine so they stay comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Feel free to message me with any questions, I’d love to help take care of your fur babies!🐾 I work from home doing art and freelance graphic design and my husband and I run a mobile coffee shop on the weekends. I cook for my dogs about once a week, take them on walks and hikes and for drives around the neighborhood when the weather is bad...they love it. I paint commissioned pet portraits and my coffee business is called Sleepy Dog Coffee. Dogs are in literally every part of my life and I wouldn't have it any other way. I love cats as well! I just don't have any currently. My shepherd mix is a tad aggressive with them so that's for the best right now! We have two fenced in areas for dogs and a large house that is pet friendly. We designed the house to have a dog shower and heated/ac pet sleeping room in our garage where we keep their crates but sometimes they sleep in our bed!

About: I’ve never gone a day in my life without a dog, and they’ve always been family — never just animals in the house. That same love and respect is what I bring to every pet I care for. With two years of experience as a veterinary assistant, I’m comfortable walking, feeding, playing, and giving oral or topical medications. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality so they feel safe, understood, and truly cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely to keep routines consistent. I double-check doors, gates, leashes, and feeding instructions to ensure safety at all times. I take time to make pets feel comfortable and calm in their own environment, keeping things clean and organized before I leave. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease.

“Megan was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of my fur babies. They were happy and healthy. I will definitely use her again!”

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life—dogs, cats, chickens, even baby cows—raising them with love, responsibility, patience, compassion, kindness and experience from a young age. PLEASE GIVE ME A DAY TO RESPOND, I work full time at a dental office, I love taking care of pet for part time. 🥰 I work during the week, sometimes I can make it back during lunch, but it really depends on traffic. My fiancé working night shift so he lets your pet out during the day, makes sure they have fresh water, and gives them a treat. After that, we feed them dinner, spend time playing and cuddling. I have pets of my own, but they will be kept separate from yours unless they are well-acquainted and get along comfortably. My home features a fully fenced backyard where your pet can safely play and take bathroom breaks. I welcome pets on the furniture, so your furry companion is free to relax and feel at home. I treat every pet in my care with the same love and attention as my own. Additionally, I live in a walkable community, perfect for giving your pet regular walks and outdoor time.

“Did a great job and updated me every morning.”

“Jataelynn was wonderful to work with! Communication was great and she cared very well for my two pups while we were gone! If you want someone who is passionate about caring for your animals she is wonderful to work with!”

Morgan B.

“Claire was great for our drop-in visit! She was reliable, checked in right on time, and kept us updated with clear communication. We’d definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”

Shannon L.

“Kaiden was very nice with our dogs and took them out and watered them, played with them, and loved on them. He also included pictures of our dogs. We will be using him again!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I was a little tot! Not only do I have experience with dogs and cats, I also have experience with bunnies, and other exotics as well. I’m a full-time college student at UTC, but in between my classes and my days off I’m fully prepared to care for your furry companion! I will feed and water your pets as needed as well as medication if needed. I will make sure that they have plenty of potty breaks (as well as litter box cleaning). I’ll make sure to keep them active and all sorts of entertainment during my visit! And of course give them all sorts of love!

About: I have always been able to communicate and interact with animals much easier than i have with people, it comes more naturally to me. The first thing that my closest friends and family say when introducing me to anyone, especially if they have pets, is that i’m great with animals. it fits in perfectly, i work at part time job at a clothing store but my shifts are only typically four hours, and i get off work anytime between 4-6 so right around dinner time. i have an open yard that my dog can roam freely whenever we let her out, she tends to stay within 10 yards of our front doorstep so we do not keep her on a leash. however, should i be taking care of a dog and it does need to be on a leash when being let out, that is no problem at all.
