House Sitting Castlemont

“We had to find a sitter on very short notice, and Jisselle was a godsend. She was prompt, communicative, and took wonderful care of our dog. She also sent lots of adorable photos. Would absolutely book again!”

“Daria did a great job. My house was left in order, my dog was happy when I returned. She was great at sending daily updates and I enjoyed seeing the pictures.”

“McKenzie is just pure sunshine. She took excellent care of our doggies and our home. This is only our second time having a house sitter and it just was so perfect. Thank you McKenzie!”

About: I have taken care of friends and neighbors pets since I was a kid and love to have a fur friend around. Happy to take them out and walk and explore nature. I like to run and hike and bike and a companion on the way is a bonus. They will be greeted with calm warmth and care. I work on trips and when I am home I am home and can be flexible about where I work. This allows me to be present to the pets I care for and to adjust to their needs. I will probably have a run or workout at some point in the day or meet a friend but am quite present. I have a fenced backyard and live by myself in a peaceful quiet space. I enjoy a walk with a fur friend to get out and move and consider it a bonus to have a buddy along.

“Sarah was great! She went above and beyond watching Martin. He obviously felt comfortable and took a liking from the photos that were sent. Highly recommended.”

“Diana helped us out last minute by watching Ralphie a few days before Christmas. She communicated regularly with us throughout the stay and brought walking outfits for Ralphie. We’re very grateful to her!”

Josie S.

“Salina was very punctual and communicative. She stayed at our house and took care of our senior dog and outdoor cats for 2 days and we felt totally comfortable with her making sure everyone was well taken care of!”

“Lanie was friendly, communicative, and caring. She did a wonderful job taking care of our two big dogs for a week. They were happy and healthy when we got home. We will employ her in the future when we need great treatment of our dogs.”

“We couldn't have asked for a better house sitter than Korin! She took wonderful care of our two dogs and our cat while we were away. She followed every instruction we left, kept us updated with great communication, and left our home spotless. What really stood out was how attentive and proactive she was. She noticed that our Chihuahua was rubbing her eye, recognized that it might need medical attention, and took her to the vet without hesitation. It gave us tremendous peace of mind knowing our pets were in the hands of someone who genuinely cared about their well-being. We would absolutely recommend Korin to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and responsible house sitter. We wouldn't hesitate to have her stay with our pets again!”

“Johnatan took care of my dog for 2 weeks. He’d feed her and walk her twice a day. He was always respectful and kept me posted about my dog’s activities. He washed the linens before departing and even gave my dog a quick bath (he forgot the blow-drying part though). As much as I’d like to give him 5 stars, there’s still room for improvement as he forgot to leave the sliding door open for the dog to go outside leading to the dog peeing and popping inside of the house. He sometimes took 8+ hours to get back home and a couple of nights he wasn’t able to return at all and my dog slept alone. The latter due to he working part time at a place located 1 hr away from our home. Overall, a thrustful boy who just needs to get more experience.”

Juan Carlos C.

“Shivani was incredible and the best sitter we’ve had! She took such great care of our pup, our two cats, and our home. Our pup is fairly reactive and has some big feelings about the world, so it can be hard to find people she is comfortable with. She seemed to be quite at ease with Shivani and enjoyed her time with her! Our shy cat also loved Shivani! Shivani also sent a lot of updates about our pets, which was soooo incredibly helpful and really put us at ease while we were away! Truly can’t say enough positive things about her and we will definitely ask her to sit for us in the future!”

About: *Important Information* Please note that my 8 year old Great Dane, 2 kids, and occasionally other dogs will be present during your dog's stay. I have had the pleasure of growing up with dogs, and my passion for them has only deepened over the years. I can’t imagine life without at least one dog by my side. Caring for dogs, whether my own or others', is something I cherish deeply. My dedication and genuine admiration for dogs are why many people trust me to dogsit for them. Your pet(s) will be in good hands, as I prioritize their happiness and safety. I believe their feelings are just as important as ours. Over the years, I have learned to read dogs' body language, which enables me to better understand their needs and desires despite the communication barrier. As a stay at home mom, I spend a significant amount of time at home, ensuring that your dog will rarely be left alone for extended periods. However, this doesn’t mean your dog will never be left alone. If your dog can’t be left unattended for at least three hours at a time, we’re not the best fit. I have a fenced yard they can run around in and also live a one minute walk from a dog trail. I can assure your dog will be safe as I like to treat them as my own.

“Christina was a wonderful care taker for our pets and house. She provided timely updates and communications. The pets where very happy and well cared for when we got home. I could not recommend her enough for anyones furry friends.”

About: Leaving your pet with someone new takes trust. My goal is to help you feel informed and reassured while giving your pet patient, attentive care that respects their personality, routine, and boundaries. My hands-on experience includes two and a half years caring for my rescued Chihuahua mix and two cats. I also volunteered socializing cats at a shelter when I was younger and, more recently, volunteered regularly at a farm animal sanctuary from April through October. There, I helped with feeding, fresh water, cleaning, preparing barns, and evening routines. I’m especially comfortable with cats and understand that building trust often means offering quiet company, respecting their space, and letting them choose when to interact. Caring for my own sensitive, reactive small dog has also taught me to watch body language closely, stay aware of my surroundings, and create distance from situations that make him uncomfortable. I treat every pet as an individual. Whether they enjoy sniff-filled walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby, I take time to learn what helps them feel comfortable. I let them set the pace for affection and interaction rather than forcing a connection. I’ve been vegan for seven years as part of my personal commitment to animal welfare. That commitment includes respecting each pet’s dietary needs—I’m comfortable handling meat-based food and following their established feeding routine. You can expect clear communication, thoughtful updates, and photos while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your pets and learn what helps them feel safe, understood, and cared for. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan walks, drop-ins, and house sits around your pet’s routine. For new clients, I prefer at least three days’ notice so we have time to arrange a meet-and-greet and make sure we’re a good fit before confirming a booking. During house sits, I stay overnight but may leave during the day for other pet-care bookings, errands, and personal commitments. Before booking, we’ll discuss your pet’s usual schedule, potty-break needs, and how long they can comfortably be left alone, so you know what to expect. I take a careful, detail-oriented approach to caring for both your pets and your home. At our meet-and-greet, I’ll ask about feeding instructions, walking routines, behavior, triggers, household rules, and emergency contacts. I welcome detailed care notes and will follow the plan we agree on. On walks, I’ll stay aware of our surroundings, keep your dog leashed, and avoid unfamiliar dogs or greetings unless we’ve specifically discussed them. I pay attention to body language and give pets space when they show discomfort rather than pushing them into an interaction. In your home, I’ll be mindful of doors, gates, and escape risks, keep feeding and litter areas tidy, and respect your instructions about access to rooms and outdoor spaces. For cats, I’ll offer attention without forcing handling or disturbing them when they need space. I’ll keep you updated with photos and notes about how your pet is doing and communicate promptly if I notice a change in their behavior, appetite, or bathroom habits. My aim is to maintain the familiar care they’re used to while giving them patience and support during your time away.

“Carly was great about giving me updates about my dog while I was away. He was happy and well cared for when I returned. She also left the house quite clean.”

“Yasmeen was amazing! She was so friendly, communicative, and warm. She genuinely cares about building a relationship with the animals she looks after. She sends constant updates to let you know how things are going. She was a wonderful sitter and we would be so happy to have her look after our dog, Skylar, again! They became the best of friends. ?”

Sanna N.

“Tami was the absolute best! She sent me lots of pictures and updates on Maggie while I was on vacation and made sure she got plenty of walks and pets and cuddles! I could not recommend Tami enough.”

Jessica S.

“Meshaal took great care of our 55 lb pup and our cat in our home while we were on vacation! They were thorough in preparing for the job, very communicative while we were away, and followed all of our feeding and exercise instructions. We would definitely have Meshaal sit for us again!”

Marcus V.

“Cesar was awesome! He was the most responsive Rover I’ve ever worked with, and sent plenty of photos and updates. Huck is quite high energy and Cesar met his needs, with lots of play time, hikes and fetch. He also went above and beyond, helping to move our car for street cleaning and even cleaning the whole apartment and doing laundry before we got back. Will definitely want to work with Cesar again!”

“Julie spent a few hours sitting Diesel and she walked him and kept him company. I felt glad he was in good hands and was taken care of.”
