House Sitting in Dogwood Acres

“Kelly stayed at my house with my cat for 10 nights, and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better sitter. Super proactive in communication, sent pics and updates daily, left the house in great shape (I really couldn't tell anyone had been here!) and was flexible in the end when my travel plans changed due to weather. Oh, and I could tell she genuinely enjoyed hanging out with my cat, which makes it all the better. Hope to be able to hire her for future needs!”

“Claire stayed our home with 5 dogs, not an easy task, and did OUTSTANDING. Thank you Claire for watching our 2 dogs, and 3 foster dogs. We really appreciate your help, especially on short notice.”

“Lynsey was amazing and won over my little grumpy gremlin. I felt so much better about leaving home knowing she was there.”

About: I’ve had 4 dogs in my life and have taken care of family friend pets since I was 12. I am a very calm sitter and have an excellent attention to detail. I am a graduate student who is usually on campus between 9am and 5pm Monday-Friday. I am flexible to come by before/after and house sit if need be! I take my client’s pets on walks, feed them regularly, give them treats and belly rubs. I also enjoy just spending quality time with my clients pets and will spend time relaxing with them and making them feel comfortable! I am really good with plants and can help out around the house if requested!

“Salem was absolutely amazing for Oliver and did everything that we asked and more! She was very communicative and gave us total peace of mind while we were far far away from home!”

About: I have had dogs since a very young age. I have worked with young dogs, adult dogs, and elderly dogs. I have experience feeding, walking, and playing with dogs. I also have experience administering medicine in pill or syringe form, as well as caring for dogs with epilepsy. I work a 9-5 Monday through Friday, so during the week I would be able to stop by in the early morning, after work, and in the evening. During the weekends, however, I am completely free. I follow any directions the primary caregiver leaves for me, prioritizing keeping the pet's routine as consistent as possible. I will work with the caregiver to ensure they best experience for both them and their furry friends.

“Tram was timely, asked good questions during the meet and greet, and sent lots of updates and pictures when she house sat. She was very responsible.”

“Rosa did an amazing jobs taking care of my girls when I reached out with a last minute request for an overnight stay. She was prompt, communicative, and I could tell the dogs were very well taken care of as well as my home. She provided plenty of updates and followed, feeding and medication instructions with attention to detail. Thank you so much for your help Rosa! The girls and I will talk to you again soon!”

“Aspen was incredibly thoughtful with our dog and home! Having someone so conscientious really takes the stress off of going away. She went above and beyond in several ways, and we would highly recommend her to anyone!”

Courtney S.

“Sarah took great care of our dog and house while we were away! She provided daily updates and pictures, and had great communication. Would highly recommend for future bookings!”

“Britney was great with Uno. This was his first time meeting her. After she left, he went to the door to look for her, as if hoping she’d be back.”

About: I've taken care of animals my whole life -- I grew up with 2-4 dogs in the house at any given time, and I've had my own cat Olive for 3 years now. I love to be around animals, and I'm excited to care for yours like they're mine while you're away! I'm prepared to meet your pet's needs where they're at, from providing multiple walks a day, or just being a calm presence in the room to ease loneliness. I'm working part-time at the moment, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pet, especially in the afternoons and evenings. I am also more than happy to accommodate for multiple visits per day. Safety, conscientiousness, and cleanliness are at the center of my pet care ethos. I'm happy to take in mail/packages, water plants, or do any other necessary tasks while you are away as well!

“I appreciated how Olivia stayed in touch with photos and updates, and was so sweet and loving to my pup Cash! We’re looking forward to next time!”

Katie B.

“I would 1000% recommend Olivia to anyone! She is kind, responsive, and took great care of our sweet boy!”

“Meredith has been absolutely incredible as our house and catsitter over a week-long trip. We have a somewhat complicated situation (some of our cats don't get along), and she's navigated that wonderfully. She provided many pictures and detailed summaries to help us understand how they've been doing and has been responsive to suggestions or requests along the way. Meredith really went above and beyond, and I would happily recommend her services and hope to work with her again in the future.”

Colleen B.

“Lauren was so patient and loving with our very anxious doggo, Zeke. She went out of her way to play and engage with Zeke to help him warm up to her. In just a few hours, Zeke was cuddling near her on the couch and letting her give him belly rubs (a big deal in Zeke’s world)! She was extremely communicative, sending lots of updates and photos. We felt so comfortable knowing Zeke was in such caring and capable hands! We look forward to having Lauren stay with Zeke again and hope they will become best buds 😊”

“Savanna responded promptly to my LAST MINUTE REQUEST for 9 hours of help with 2, maybe 3 dogs. She sent photos and reports through the afternoon and assured me she would still be there, even though I was going to be 30 minutes late getting home. My dogs, fostered for a Border Collie rescue, wanted to follow her out the door. I hope to continue asking for Savanna's help for future dog sitting needs.”

Ellen P.

“Alekx has stayed with our puppy twice now and was amazing! Very patient with puppy energy. We also came home to a pup who had been taught a few new skills and Alekx even gave our pup many hand me down toys from her own dog, some of which are our pups new favorites! Our dog hasn’t been alone yet, and Alekx was great about staying with her and even took her out to a park.”
