House Sitting in Bloomington

“We are new to the area and hired Monica to house sit and watch our dog Penny. She offered to come meet us in person before booking, which was so generous. Monica was responsive, kind, and left us with so much confidence leaving her with our dog and home. She was flexible with arrival and departure time, sent us updates and photos, and we will continue to hire Monica again and again- what a gem!!!”

About: I have experience with all types of cats and dogs and critters. I not only work as a pet sitter, but I was an independent rescuer and as a Spay-Neuter advocate for the ASPCA in NYC as well. I can administer fluids and medications (provided the cat isn't feral) and I have experience caring for elderly animals and pets with disabilities. I'm guaranteed reliable, flexible, patient, and kind, and I would care for your babes as I do my own. Part of being a good pet sitter is sensing what the cat and dog need, whether it means extra pets and playtime, or to be given space. i want your pet to be happy and cared for. i love all animals and their happiness, safety and well-being mean everything to me. As a part-time freelancer, pet sitting works well with my schedule. I'm available 8am to 9pm. I am not available for overnights, but I will book extended daytime stays if I am available. Cats and dogs deserve exercise, playtime, fresh meals, clean water, and affection. I will never allow a cat outside or a dog off his or her leash unless requested. You can rely on me to lock the door and keep your pet and home safe while you are away.

“Marielle has pet sat in our home for our chihuahua mix a couple times now and always does a great job! She leaves our house spotless and our dog happy!”

“This was our first pet sit with Emily and it went great! She is super communicative and sent us tons of pictures and updates of our little guy. Will definitely work with her again!”

“Laianna was a GREAT sitter for our dog while at a wedding in Kingston! She was responsive to requests in a timely manner and even met us and our dog the day before the scheduled setting to introduce herself to us and the dog. Our dog is shy when meeting new people, but Laianna had a calm demeanor and connected with our dog immediately! Within an hour she was giving belly rubs, having play time and walking on the rail trial! She sent pictures while we were at the wedding and was easy to tell Kiko was having a great time! If I could provide a rating above "5" I would!!! You would be fortunate if in Kingston NY to get her to watch and care for your pet! Thank you, Laianna - you are the best!”

“Riss was fantastic! I came home to my staff/pit mix being very relaxed and comfortable. It seems like he had a nice time with riss. She was very communicative and shared updates and photos. I highly recommend! Also, the house was spotless, that’s very much appreciated”

“Deanna is a warm and friendly young woman and did a great job of sitting for my two cats while I was away, sleeping over for three nights. She fed them and seemed to genuinely enjoy them. She sent me a photo every day to reassure me. She even cleaned up their vomit without complaining. She left my home neat as a pin, just as she found it. I recommend her and would certainly hire her again.”

“Katherine took our two rowdy boys totally in stride and made me feel totally confident that she had them safe and sound. Lovely pics and great communication. Would book again”

“My two sickly, finicky, geriatric pups loved Ja-Laurel! I think they were actually disappointed when we came home :-D (they were hoping to see Ja again). She also left the house spotless and all the potted plants happily hydrated. Many thanks!!!”

“Our experience with Alexa was second to none! She stepped in to dog sit very last minute and treated our Ruby like royalty. We received regular updates with photos and Alexa was always quick to respond. We knew our pup and home were in good hands. Wouldn't hesitate to have Alexa dog sit for us again!!”

“Carolyn was great. She arrived early, was greeted by Bodhi and after a little playing he jumped in her car and off they went for a walk on the rail trail. He really enjoyed the exercise and I’m sure he’ll be glad to see her again.”

About: I have trained two puppies, and taken care of a senior dog who sadly recently passed. I understand the patience required for both ends of the spectrum. Currently my puppy is just 9 months old, and very sweet with all other pets. I can help with socialisation, or just general care and walking, whatever you need! I am a graduate student in a very flexible program, just working a few hours a week at Bard College, the rest of the time at home. I have access to a yard, and my friendly puppy to play with. I am happy to follow feeding schedules, and can maintain training routines. I have a crate if your dog needs their safe space.

“Paula was fantastic from the beginning. Her communication is great. She’s kind and responsive and made me feel very confident that my pets would be well cared for. I have a diabetic cat who needs medicine, and Paula’s experience caring for pets with other medical conditions was reassuring. She sent lots of photos and I could tell they were well loved while I was away.”

“Grettel has been amazing!! Scout is a very nervous and anxious dog and as soon as Grettel and Scout met I knew that Scout was going to be comfortable with Grettel! It only took him about 10 minutes to relax, which is huge for Scout!! She is also very thorough, which puts us at ease. She also provides video and pics of him while we are away! :) ”

“Melissa sat with my dog Stella yesterday afternoon. She arrived on time, was loving and attentive to Stella and I felt totally confident that she would be able to handle any emergency that might arise. Also, Stella loved her! I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again.”

“We were so happy to find Aliza on the Rover app. We have a new rescue dog, Cobalt, and we were concerned about leaving him for the first time, while we went on a week long cruise that we booked last year. Aliza took great care of Cobalt and sent us frequent photos and updates to let us know how well he was doing. We will certainly hire Aliza again when we need a dog sitter.”

Pat K.

“Allison took great care of our dog Major at our house for a week. He is healthy, happy, and calm, which is a first for when we've been away. We've tried other sitters and kennels and he gets pretty stressed out. Allison is calm and positive and kept him active. We booked her to walk him once a week for the month before we left, which let them bond ahead of our trip, too. We looked forward to our daily photo of him. The house is tidy and neat. We look forward to working with Allison again.”

“David was great with Koda while we spend a weekend out of town! Koda’s friend Rosie was staying with us at the time too, and David was great with her too! We came home to a clean house and a happy pup! We will certainly use David again!”
