Dog Sitting Derry

About: Hi! I’m Alanna, a lifelong dog lover with both personal and professional experience caring for pets. I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a kid and I’ve worked as a shift lead at a pet store for over 2 years, where I also handle dogs in the grooming department. This means I’m very comfortable working with different breeds, sizes, and temperaments including anxious or high-energy dogs. I have experience with handling, basic grooming support, and reading dog behavior, so your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work part-time and take most of my college classes online, which allows me to have a very flexible schedule. I’m able to be available throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure pets get plenty of attention and care. I always adjust my care based on each pet’s individual needs and routine. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their normal schedule to minimize stress, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications or special instructions. I make sure pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment and provide regular updates. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and structured environment with constant supervision, regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention. My experience working in a pet store and handling dogs in grooming has made me confident with a wide range of temperaments, so safety and comfort are always my top priorities.

“We are so pleased with the service we got from Olivia! We came home to a very happy Lily. The report cards were helpful to see how well adjusted Lily was and that she was relaxed being in our home rather than the kennel.”

About: I had the joy of a Lhasa Apso Miniature Toy Collie for four years, showing my love for both felines and canines. Due to unforeseen circumstances, I found a nurturing home with a dear friend for my dog. Now, working from home, I'm eager to bring a pet's companionship back into my life. I offer a clean, safe environment and enjoy spending time outdoors, soaking up fresh air during breaks and lunchtime walks around my complex. Creating a pet-friendly atmosphere is important to me, and it would be a pleasure to share my home with a furry friend. I'm gentle and affectionate with animals, and they naturally warm to me. I'm looking forward to meeting your pet and hopefully becoming your next sitter. I'm available for boarding drop-off after 3:30 p.m. on weekdays and after 9 a.m. on weekends. Pick-up time is by 5 p.m. on weekdays and by 3 p.m. on weekends, but I'm flexible if needed. I do not currently have any pets. In the near future, upon purchasing a home with acres of land and a secure yard, I plan to welcome a pet into my family.

“Chloe is an excellent dog sitter! She comes on time, makes sure my dog is taken out, and fed. She also walks and plays with her. She is very responsive and will ask if anything is needed. I also like her pricing as it is affordable. I definitely recommend her as a sitter!”

“I have only the best things to say about Magnoly! She was punctual, professional, responsive, and so very caring with my 3 pups. She handles dogs of various temperaments with grace and knows when and how to step in to avoid negative interactions between dogs. Her Report Cards were thoughtful and the photos she took showed that my dogs were so happy and comfortable with her. We will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you for everything, Magnoly!”

“Robert did a fantastic job doing check in visits with our dogs! He was very communicative and attentive, even making sure they they drank water after their walks. Highly recommend!”

“Ardin did a great job with our big 100 lb. boy, Charlie, for 11 days, 3x a day drop in visits. The photos she included, with the activities they did (walks and soccer) showed a happy dog. Her texts really reassured us about how well it was going and we plan on rebooking with Ardin for a long family wedding this fall!”

“Gianna has been great. She’s checked in on my cat several times now and I’ve appreciated her help and updates.”

About: I have owned and cared for dogs & cats my entire life, among many other animals! I have experience working as a kennel care technician for an animal hospital and also for a private pet sitting business. Family and friends have always relied on me to care for their pets while away. I currently work at a private farm milking & tending to goats. I have worked with animals of all shapes, sizes, and ages. I can’t wait to meet your pet and become their new best friend! I’m currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time for your pets! I have around the clock availability and a very flexible schedule. I am available to walk, feed, clean-up, give medication, and most importantly play with your pets. I am clean, courteous, and respectful to your pets, home, and privacy.

“She was awesome being able to help me out with a couple days notice. She was able to follow my instructions of feeding my cats loving on them and ironically, most importantly, keeping my plant/flowers alive while I was on vacation by watering them. Thank you so much!”

About: Hello & welcome to my profile! I have been blessed by growing up around animals my entire life! My older brother has had dogs as small as a Poodle/Chihuahua mix (Ari) and as large as a Newfoundland (Armand - which I was able to help leash train)! My brother has relied on me multiple times to take care of them, and I do so lovingly! In Ari’s later years, he trusted me to give him his medication, special diet food, and assist him walk around. Additionally, I grew up around cats for as long as I can remember and currently have two of my very own. Not only cats & dogs, but bunnies, gerbils, and guinea pigs are all animals I have taken care of under my own roof! I know that each pet has their own personality and therefore needs specialized care. I know how much I think about my own when I am away from them, and I would be honored to lovingly take care of them so you don’t have to stress it! I currently work full time M-F, but am consistently done with work by 3:00/4:00 pm. This gives me plenty of time to stop by and care for your animals during the week part time, or full time on the weekends! Within my own home, I make sure to be proactive with making sure my cats have fresh water and food in their bowls at consistent times. I do not currently own any pet supplies for a dog and I live in a one bedroom apartment with limited space. I am happy to house smaller animals when need be and take care of all other pets within their own furever home!

“Mikayla was prompt, friendly, and communicative. She met the needs of our two very different cats, including dispensing medication for one of them.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and am very comfortable caring for them day-to-day. I understand dogs’ routines, body language, and needs, and I treat every dog with patience, attention, and care I currently work part time at a retail store so I’m not usually busy depending on the day but my day to day may vary I care for pets by following their routine closely, making sure they’re fed, exercised, and comfortable. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet with the same care and respect I give my own dogs.

About: Hi there! My name is Ayslinn, pronounced “eyes-linn”, but you can also call me River. Growing up in a home where my mom was a dog groomer, I was always surrounded by dogs and learned from a young age how to care for them with love and patience. Over the years, I’ve helped friends train their dogs, including a lively husky, and I’ve worked with many different breeds, from tiny lap dogs to big, high-energy pups. I also have experience caring for puppies and nervous dogs, providing gentle patience to help them feel safe and comfortable. My focus is always on making sure every pet gets the exercise, attention, and affection they deserve. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a shy companion, or an energetic dog who loves long walks, I treat every pet like family. I work full-time Monday through Thursday from 5:30am to 3:30pm, so my primary availability is on weekends. Throughout October I won’t be available after 5:00pm as I’ll be working weekend nights. I’m open for walks, and pet sitting throughout the weekend during the day and can occasionally do evenings after 4:30pm on weekdays if needed. Just let me know what you need, and I’ll do my best to accommodate. I can’t host dogs in my apartment, but I provide safe, reliable care in your home so your pup feels comfortable in their own space. I follow your routines closely, whether that’s feeding, walking, or crate training, and I’m experienced with many breeds, puppies, and nervous dogs. I’m also comfortable with special instructions like giving medications or sticking to unique schedules, and I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.

“Sam always blows us away with the care and effort she puts into taking care of our cat. She consistently keeps us updated and makes us feel like our pet is happy and safe. Thank you, Sam!!!”
