Dog Sitting Chesilhurst

“We had a very good experience with Shannon! We contacted her last minute and she was very accommodating. Shannon seemed very sweet and genuine, which are refreshing qualities! She came by our house everyday and made sure our two cats Ozzie and Dude were feed, clean and happy. We even received pictures. I would use and recommend Shannon’s services again . She was awesome ! Thanks again Shannon!”

About: I used to work at boarding/doggy daycare facility for two years so I have experience with walking dogs, properly taking care of them, and keeping them safe and clean! I miss working work animals and I’m excited to start again! I do work a full time job, but i do have off every other weekend and am available every day during the week between 8am and 2pm. I would love for my clients to tell me about their fur baby, ex. Any behavior or things their baby may or may not like and their home, ex. If they have a fenced in yard or not. All of this or any information is helpful so I know how to best keep your baby safe!

“Melissa was absolutely amazing while taking care of my two cats for a week. She was super responsible, reliable, and clearly really cared about them. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands the whole time. She kept everything clean, followed all the instructions, and made sure both of them were happy and comfortable. It honestly made being away so much less stressful. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring cat sitter! 🐱💗”

About: Special skills: senior pet care, pets with various behavioral and health needs, administering medication, kittens/puppies Growing up my family rescued numerous cats with varying behavioral and health needs and I have built loving connections with both the most cuddly and most standoffish of pets. Since childhood my neighbors have trusted me to care for their pets while on vacation and many senior neighbors depended on me to assist with dog walking. In 2020 I inherited my neighbors 12 year old dog when she passed away. Caring for his diverse needs into his old age was one of the highest honors of my life thus far. At home I have 4 dogs varying in size from Shih Tzu to Newfoundland. I love to walk and be in nature and am a great dog companion for the summer weather! I am a graduate student on a break from school with a flexible schedule to provide your fur babies with cuddles and care. I am happy to help almost any time, any day ! Building secure and trusting bonds with pets and their owners is a top priority of mine. Following instructions and attention to detail and safety is a key component of that.

About: I have had dogs my entire life and developed a genuine love for animals from an early age. I have sat and taken care of friends’ and families' pets over the years. While in high school my mother and I fostered dogs while they waited to be adopted. In addition, I spent 2.5 years working at a locally owned pet store, where I gained hands-on experience with pet care, behavior, and nutrition. I am widely available during the week besides scheduled appointments, errands, and housework. I have reliable transportation and keep an organized schedule so there is no overlap. Each animal should feel safe in their home while their owner is away, so I work calmly and patiently to earn their trust through my actions. Your dog should know I am there for their well-being, including all the good things like snuggling, playing, and tail wags. I treat each client's home with the kindness and respect I would want in return if the roles were reversed. I follow all instructions and information provided to the best of my ability, and your dog will receive plenty of love in the process.

“This was my first time using Rover & I happened upon Kat after pouring over all the sitters in my area. I knew right away she was who I wanted to take care of my fur babies when I’m out of town. After a meet greet the kitties and I loved her. She’s a vet tech by profession, animal CPR certified & a mom to many fur babies herself. I felt content & safe leaving my world in her hands & knew if there was a problem that she’d be able to use her skills, judgment and background to handle it. Bonus she sends pictures & videos & I loved this:)... I plan on utilizing her from here on out & you should too!! You won’t be disappointed!!”

About: Ever since I was old enough to stay home alone, I've always enjoyed taking care of pets. Overtime I've gotten used to walking, feeding, and entertaining dogs for my friends and relatives. I currently work 2 jobs, with Sunday as my consistent day off. Despite having multiple jobs, most of my shifts don't exceed 5-6 hours. Both jobs and home are not far from each other. I am all about adopting the dog’s routine whether it be playing in the yard and going for long walks, or spending quality time indoors. I’m always observing behavior, ensuring that I can take care of them to my utmost ability.

About: What sets me apart is my background in veterinary medicine and animal care. I have over five years of experience working with animals and currently work as a Veterinary Assistant and Customer Service Representative at an animal hospital. I am comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including seniors and those requiring medications or extra attention. My experience allows me to recognize changes in behavior, monitor for potential health concerns, and provide attentive, compassionate care. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine due to having a structured schedule that allows me to reliably plan around animal care. I work Monday through Friday from 3–9 PM and Saturdays from 8 AM–1 PM, which leaves me available in the mornings, evenings, and Sundays for consistent pet visits, feeding, walks, and check-ins. I’m very organized with scheduling, allowing me to ensure each pet receives care on time and maintains their normal routine. In my client’s home, I care for pets by keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding, medication, and exercise instructions exactly as provided, and I pay close attention to each pet’s normal behaviors so I can quickly notice any changes in appetite, mood, or energy. Creating a calm, familiar environment by respecting the pet’s space and allowing them to interact on their own terms is my priority, especially for more shy or anxious animals. Communication is important to me when it comes to my own animals, so I provide updates to owners so they feel confident their pet is being well cared for while they’re away.

“Olivia helped me out in a pinch and was super communicative and sweet. She took great care of my frenchie and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!”

About: I truly treat every dog like they’re my own! Whether your pup is a playful puppy full of energy or a sweet senior who just wants snuggles and slow strolls, I adjust to their pace and needs. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I’m super comfortable with things like basic training, giving meds, and calming nervous pups. I love getting to know each dog’s quirks and making sure they feel safe, loved, and totally at ease while you’re away. Plus, you’ll always get plenty of updates and cute pics:) Pet care fits into my routine perfectly! I work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to give your pet the attention they need. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just some cozy cuddles, I make sure to fit it into my schedule to ensure your pet gets the care and companionship they deserve. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel loved and well-cared for while you're away. When I care for pets in their own home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I’ll follow any instructions you provide for feeding, walks, playtime, or specific needs your pet has. Whether it’s a lot of playtime or some quiet cuddles, I make sure your pet feels loved, comfortable, and secure while you’re away. I also take care to keep your home tidy and safe, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages to give you peace of mind!

“Abby was absolutely wonderful! I was in a pinch and needed someone to come over and check on my dog the same day. I blindly reached out to her, she responded quickly and was able to make it happen! We then had her come check on our dog the following 2 days as well. She let me know when she was on her way and gave me thorough updates throughout. I’ll absolutely be using her again and if highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve owned 3 dogs in my life & all of them I have trained from puppyhood into adulthood. I make sure life is full of play, adventure, and structure. I have been a reliable pet sitter for many of my friends & family! I currently WFH and have a 5 month old puppy. I am able to visit during the daytime starting early afternoon and into the evenings for play, walks, as well as enrichment/activities. I treat your pet and your home as I would mine or if a visitor came to mine. I understand putting the most valuable things in your life into the care of someone else and I take that very seriously. I guarantee professionalism and a visit that follows your instructions from the moment I park, along with your desired routine for your pet during the visit and from locking up and leaving to ensure your pets safety and comfortability.

“Zahira is the best! She was available on a whim and I always feel great about leaving our babies with her. She goes above and beyond with communication and updates and takes the absolute best care of our dogs! She’s basically Remy’s favorite person!”

About: Hello, I’m SirJahad! I have over 11 years of experience caring for cats through both personal ownership and cat sitting for clients, friends, and family. Over the last 2 years, I’ve also gained experience caring for dogs through pet sitting for friends and family members. My experience includes feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box cleaning, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I truly enjoy being around animals and understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always do my best to provide dependable, patient, and attentive care. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, playful, or needs extra comfort. At the end of the day, my goal is for you to return home to a happy pet and feel confident that they received the same care, attention, and respect that I’d want for my own fur babies. Thank you for the opportunity, and I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Currently working a full time schedule. I clock in at 7:30am & finish between 2:30-3:30pm depending on the week. If you’d like my services anywhere between those times, just need 5 days to a week’s notice prior to booking. Typically free Saturday & Sundays. I believe communication is one of the most important parts of pet sitting. During our meet and greet, I ask plenty of questions so I can follow your instructions as closely as possible. I’ll make sure your home remains secure, clean, and respected while you’re away. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy levels, and overall wellbeing, and I’ll always communicate anything that seems unusual.

About: I’ve had all types of animals growing up from fishes, turtles, cats, and dogs so I have plenty experience in caring for them. Family has trusted me to groom, feed, and walk their fur babies multiple times. I hope you can trust me to do the same! I’m currently only working, so I have plenty of time to be with your furbaby! I’m available on weekends at any time and on weekdays at anytime! I have a fenced yard with two dogs who are little and mighty and two cats who are very shy but friendly once they are comfortable! I can crate your dog if needed with no issue and can accommodate to your dogs needs.

About: I am very good with dogs, because I pay attention to their body language. Dogs communicate through their eyes, body and barks. Similar to a person using sign language. Most communication is non-verbal and I definitely pay attention and make sure I treat every furry friend with respect and love. Dogs have feelings and like to socialize in healthy environments and that is what they will get with me as your dog sitter and / or dog walker. I will take your dog walking, I will check-in on your dog and play ball or tug of war with them, if that is what they like to do, I will provide water refills and food refills, even mix food upon request and follow instructions specific to your dog's need. I like to take dogs to the park, go jogging with dogs, belly rubs, hugs and playful affection. I like making dogs feel important, so they know they matter. This way, they feel happy and fulfilled while you are working or away on vacation, or away for that day or moment running errands. I am currently an entrepreneur. Trying to start my own pet business. Served, previously in the United States Air Force. Used to have an emotional support dog for 14 years who is no longer with us due to old age and health problems. That was my peace and joy who helped me through difficult times in my life. I actually feel happy spending time with dogs. Running with dogs, playing ball with dogs, training dogs, walking dogs, dog sitting and playing, cuddles and hugs! I make dogs feel important because they are our fur babies who deserve the best life can give them! I will give your dog fresh water, food, medication; if necessary, pay attention to their body language to figure out what they need from me to feel more comfortable and supported. If you have instructions or a routine I will follow those set of guidelines. I will keep all owners well informed with updated photos and possible videos on how their fur babies are doing! If they need a bathing that is extra, but I will clean your dog thoroughly after playtime. If, you want me to take your dog to the park, I love doing walks and runs in the park with your fur baby! Get all the extra energy out, so when you come home they are well satisfied and content. I have a house and a yard. Yard is not fully fenced in yet, but currently working towards fixing it or getting a new fence. My house is dog proof to keep all fur babies safe and happy, but there are always other options available to keep your dog as comfortable as possible. Depending on the service you hire me for pertaining to your pet.

“Nicole did a great job checking in and feeding our cats. She provided us with pictures and daily updates. I would highly recommend her. Thank you Nicole for taking care of our cats.”
