House Sitting Concord

“Dawn did a great job. She sent photos, texts and even called to check in to see if I had any questions or concerns. The dogs seemed to really enjoy her company. The house looked great when I got back.”

“Thank you Andrea for taking care of our fur babies. We appreciated the photos & commentary while we were away. We could definitely feel they were in good hands!”

About: I had a pet dog growing up, and I have frequently dog-sat for my parents. I now find myself under employed and looking to make some extra money while spending time with dogs! I'm currently working part-time, with the option to work from home, so I am extremely flexible. I live in downtown Concord within walking distance of 3 parks, so near constant access to the outdoors is a bonus! I live in an apartment that allows dogs of all sizes and breeds. I do not have a fenced yard, but I do live on the ground floor and have a lead attached to my deck for when I'm hanging out on the deck I also have a pet cat, so ant dog staying in the house would need to be cat savy.

“We’ve had the good fortune of working with Kirsty multiple times now and each time is better than the last. She’s professional, thorough, and most importantly, shes really interested in providing the best care for our old lady dog- complete with multiple meds and special dietary needs. Thanks Kirsty!”

About: Everyone always asks me why dogs are so nice to me and quiet and I’m not really sure but I love all animals! So I hope you can trust me with yours! I work full time but after work I’m always available usually and on weekends. I’m very lenient towards everyone’s schedules so take your time! Don’t worry I will only be going to peoples homes to pet sit or walk because I live in an apartment that doesn’t allow dogs unfortunately maybe one day when I get my own house though!

“Hollyn was professional, kind, and flexible. We had a last minute event and she was more than willing to take care of our pup. Thanks, Hollyn!”

About: Hello! I have taken care of my own, family, and friends' animals for over 15 years and those in the community going on five years. I've worked with most breeds and ages. Size does not matter whether your best friend is 5Ibs or 150Ibs! I have a flexible schedule and can work with you on times. Whether it's walking, visits and feeding or all of the above I'm happy to help. I have experience with senior dogs and their sometimes more complex needs, including medical. For all services I require a meet and greet first. For house sitting, I don't do over nights but can be there very early and/or late and happy to work from your home and give your dog(s) as much interaction and breaks they need. For daycare in my home, I require a meet and greet with my dogs, preferably on neutral ground such as a local park, or my yard if needed. Dogs are just like humans, sometimes they're best friends sometimes they aren't and my number one priority is the safety of all animals. Dogs need to be okay with kids. My children are very respectful and I've taught them from a young age how to interact with dogs and read their body language, and give them space. But I know not all dogs have had positive experiences with kids. Don't worry about size or puppy rambunctiousness- they are used to that! I have extra crates if needed or prefered. I don't do off leash, your dog may be great off leash and have awesome recall, but I'm a new person and your dog might be anxious or just not as focused with someone new. Again my priority is safety, after all this is your best friend and family member! I have ground tethers that give them a large range to free roam, explore and play. I also use 30ft leads for fun walks in woods or local hiking trails. Feel free to ask about cats too! I love cats and am first and foremost a crazy cat lady. I've sat for all ages and levels of feline pickiness. I've done meds, including injections for kitties too. I work from home and as a result have a flexible schedule. I take time out of my day regularily to walk, play and be with our dogs and yours, it's a great way for me to break up my day and get to know the great dogs in the community. When caring for your pets I take great care to be respectful of your space, only going where I need to for your animals. I make a point to clean any pet mess and ensure they are secure before leaving.

About: I have been caring for pets (of all kinds- dogs, cats, birds, reptiles) for as long as I can remember, whether they be my own or my friends and family’s. I’ve done petsitting professionally through River and similar apps for about 7 years now. I have several regular clients in the area and I just love being a part of so many pets lives in this way!! :) I’m currently working full-time in downtown Concord, but I have some flexibility with my schedule and I am more than happy to work with you to find an arrangement that works best for everyone. I can offer mid-day potty breaks or work remotely when needed to ensure your pets are well cared for & happy. I also offer a rate reduction of $35/night if we find that additional drop-ins are needed. I’m an experienced house sitter and I take respect & privacy seriously. I’m very clean and make it a point to leave every home even better than I found it. I treat every home- and every pet- exactly as I would want someone to treat my own.

“Halley was great with my toy poodle, and very considerate of our house and rules. We will definitely be calling her again.”

“Brianna kept me informed on a regular and incidental basis, not only with text messages embellished with pictures. She was very responsive. I will be asking for her services in the future.”

About: I have experience working with dogs small-large and have taken ~2 years of dog training classes for my own dog. Experienced dog walker and now available for boarding. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. As a part‑time student with no outside employment, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to each dog I care for. Whether your pet stays in my home or I come to yours, I’m able to provide consistent supervision, regular walks, and a calm, structured environment. I’m already active with my own dog, so incorporating additional walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day is something I genuinely enjoy. In my home, pets enjoy a safe and comfortable environment tailored to their needs. I have a secure dog run in the yard for outdoor playtime and potty breaks, and I keep an extra crate available if a dog prefers or requires one. Dogs are welcome on the couch, and there are multiple dog beds throughout the house for cozy resting spots. My own dog is well‑trained and friendly with other social dogs, but I can easily separate pets into different areas of the home if that’s the best setup for their comfort. Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, I treat every pet with the same attention, love, and care I give my own.

“Again, Sarah was wonderful in taking care of Lucy. She was available for my last minute request and managed everything well. She even watered my plants! Sarah always goes above and beyond. Lucy always seems very happy and content upon my return. I would highly recommend her.”

“Excellent experience! This was the first time leaving our pets, two of them elderly, with someone other than family. We came home to relaxed happy pets! Christin “Sal” checked in with us daily and let us know all was well. I will most certainly use Sal again!!”

About: My family has owned both dogs and cats for most of my life. As a kid my daily chores would often include feeding and walking the animals, and of course cleaning up after the ones that I begged my parents to get. A majority of out dogs have been larger breeds including an Alaskan Malamute, American Bulldog, German Shepherd, and multiple lab mixes. Since moving out and having an apartment that does not allow animals, I occassionally voluteer dog walk at a local shelter. I currently work part time at a restaurant and have availability over a variety of times of the day to take care of your pets! Before entrusting me with your pet, I'd like to have a conversation about anythig specific they may need or issues they have that require extra attention. It is also important to me to have an emergency plan in case aything were to happen.

About: I have many years of experience working with different types of animals. I have previously worked in a boarding facility/daycare as well as doing my own personal pet care for over 5 years. I have experience with overnight care, puppies, kittens, adults and seniors. I also have experience with animals with special needs. I know how to medicate whether it is pills or injecting insulin. If staying at my place the pet is welcome anywhere in the house, and I will let them feel like they are home. I am always around when pet sitting, and if I’m watching a dog and I have to run an errand, they are always allowed to come along with me. They will be treated just as you would treat them. unless I am traveling out of state for work, I am working from home, so the time of your pets stay always consists of 24/7 care I stick to a routine, but I also follow your pet’s schedule, feeding time/bathroom breaks, etc, their stay here will be treated as if they are at home

“Erin was fantastic with our 5 yr. old golden doodle at my home for 8 consecutive days and seven nights. On a rating scale from 1 to 10 I rate Erin a 15 plus. She took our dog Brandy for several walks during the day, played gun-ball, and fetch games with her all of which Brandy loves. Erin sent photos of the dog in the morning and late day as well every day with update comments. She kept the house spotless and even removed leaves off the walkways and deck as well. She even assisted me with the electronic programs in my treadmill. We are extremely satisfied with Erin,. Brandy loves her and i look forward to book future dog sitting with Erin through Rover. This was the first time we left Bandy with a sitter and Brandy meshed perfectly with Erin. Therefore, i am convinced that i will only allow Erin to be the sitter for Brandy moving forward and i thank her for her professional and above flawless service. Thanks, Tom”

“Cacey was super attentive to our puppies, sending updates and adorable pics daily. Our house looked great coming home to after a week’s vacation with the kids. Would hire her again and absolutely recommend her, especially with her ability to handle and care for a temperamental chihuahua lol. Thanks, Cacey!!”

About: Hello, thanks for considering me to help care for your family! A little about me- I’ve had dogs my whole life. A lovable quirky Golden and quite a few Akitas. I’ve found every dog has unique needs and especially adoptees and rescues, need extra patience and understanding to gain your trust. I like to be mindful and cater to each dog’s individual needs on a case by case basis so they get the best possible care, which they deserve. I am reliable, dependable, and trustworthy. I will treat your dogs as if they were my own, with care and love. I have experience with both puppies and aging dogs. At any stage in their life I’m happy to do what I can to make them feel comfortable and cared for. I have cared for cats and dogs with daily check ins and in-house care. I feel strongly that both parties be comfortable with the pet care. You, the owners, should feel comfortable with me watching your pet(s) just as I should feel confident watching them. This is not just a way to earn some extra income (while that is important) your pet(s) deserve the best and if we are not a good match both parties are welcome to decline the care if we feel that’s best so your loved one(s), you, and I all feel good about the situation. Communication is key and as I mentioned if either of us feel unsure or unsafe it’s not worth the compensation. I hope this little blurb is not a deterrent but rather an extra layer of assurance why I am a good candidate for your dog(s) by being honest, fair to all parties, and prioritizing everyone’s safety. That being said I’d love to meet you and your four-legged family members! I have experience with a variety of cats, Golden Retrievers, Akitas (up to 130 lbs), German Shepards, Terriers, Boxer-Pit mixes, Labrador’s, and quite a few other mutts. I like dogs, big or small! If there are any specific instructions, medications, specific training commands, check-in requests, or any other requests please let me know! I’m more than happy to work with you to confirm details and instructions and make sure you’re comfortable leaving your little family members, while making the process easy and stress free. Thanks for reading my profile and considering me to help watch over your creatures! I truly love animals and look forward to taking great care of yours. FLEXIBLE! My schedule is a little different every week and can be flexible as needed (especially if planned ahead of time). I’m happy to discuss scheduling options with you to cater to the timeframe(s) your pet(s) need care. Let’s chat! I take extra care when in anyone else’s space, whether that’s your apartment, house, condo, whatever your home looks like, it warrants respect, privacy, and care. I have experience with dogs being put in their cages when left alone, for dinner, or overnight. I also have experience with dogs sleeping in the same square foot I do! (And by that I mean I am their human-sized pillow so they can sleep comfortably haha). All depends on what you prefer, happy to chat about your preferences. This is your pet, your choice. I will respect your requests, just communicate what you expect for your dog/cat/creature and we’ll make sure we’re on the same page so you and your pet are comfortable. Just let me know and I’ll make it happen!

“Olivia, Did a great job for us she watched our two Frenchies and we highly recommend her.”

About: All my life ive been around animals. From dogs, to cats, to ferrets and beyond. I love learning new animals and all their personalities! Can't wait to meet your fur babies! I'd love the opportunity to take care of your pets around my schedule. Usually I have Wednesdays and Sundays off, and im usually home by 7. When you need those late night dates nights, to when you just need a break, i can always be there to help! I am a 22 year old animal lover with a strong passion for helping people in whatever they need! I am more then willing to help clean up a little if you just need a mental break, or if the animal im sitting just needs some extra care, whether that be accompanying you to the vet, or getting them out of the house for a bit, so you can relax. Pet ownership goes both ways, and I know how important both sides health goes.
