House Sitting in Elk Ridge

“Maretta is a jewel! She is so good with animals. My Winston has allergies and needed a specific routine at night that was never missed! Her really took to her and was so comfortable with her, not anxious like the past. Every little thing was done perfectly and with love an care. She's a real jewel!”

“Our animals were so happy when we got home after Madison stayed here and the house was so clean when we got home. Madison was great and we will definitely have him come again next time we need a house sitter!!”

“Gayle did an excellent job with our dogs. They were well taken care of and she took care of our cat as well. We have a timid German Shepard that does not trust a lot of people, but she loved Gayle. We would use her again and again!! I would recommend Gayle to anyone!!!”

“Samye was an absolute star taking care of my special needs French bulldog while I was gone for the weekend. She paid close attention to my instructions and demonstrations, kept him clean and happy while I was gone, fed him just as I had instructed, and I returned to a happy, healthy, clean dog. In addition, she went above and beyond in taking care of my home, cleaning his rugs and washing linens so that I came home to a tidy house. I highly recommend Samye for your pet sitting needs!”

“During our meet and greet with Kelsey, she blew us out of the water! I was so impressed with how she handled and interacted with our 3 dogs. We have a very grumpy old man who doesn't take to new people very well. Kelsey greeted them, loved on them and was not intimidated by Jake at all. Jake was friends with her by the end of our meet and greet. The two little ones took to her as well. In addition to Jake, Gemma was in heat and I was grateful Kelsey had experience with that and I didn't have to worry about messes while we were gone. We booked her that night. She stayed in our home with them while we were on vacation out of country. We also have chickens and I was grateful she was more than happy to tend to them as well. It was such a blessing to know that our home, fur babies and chickens were being watched and cared for. I received daily updates from her and countless pictures. I LOVED THAT!! Kelsey made sure the house was clean and tidied for when we arrived home, she even washed and folded all of Gemma's diapers. I can't rave enough about how amazing and perfect Kelsey was and is for our family. We have already booked with her for our summer trip and have a grooming appointment with her. Thanks a million times over Kelsey!! We can't wait to see you again!”

“When I arrived home Finn and Mac were happy and healthy. There wasn’t much communication during the stay about their well being while I was gone, but I just took that as a sign everything was ok. Hannah left my home in the same state as when I left.”

About: I’ve watched dogs ever since my nana got her dog when I was 9, I am a huge animal lover and have studied there mannerisms I work full time but love coming home to seeing pups, love playing fetch and going to the dog park. And cuddles, and just hanging out I have a fenced yard, and two very friendly dogs, one small one big. One loves fetch and the other loves playing with dogs, I also have a pool that’s not open yet but if your dog loves swimming then perfect

About: I’ve had the absolute pleasure looking after numerous dogs and cats, tailoring my approach to each pets unique needs. From high-energy pups to senior friends, I’ve provided attentive care, ensuring their comfort, exercise, and happiness. I currently work and attend school remotely with a flexible schedule to take care and play with your pups or cats. I’m available both weekdays and weekends. I live in a house and have the schedule to take your dog out on long walks or runs. There are many trails that I know of that I like to go to often. I am an avid runner and hiker who is always looking for an excuse to be outside. Let me know if your pet has any specific needs or behaviors to attend to. I am comfortable with any breed or size of pet.

“Lexie was fantastic! From the moment she arrived, she was a beacon of support, providing frequent updates and delightful photos that truly put our minds at ease while we were away. Our dogs took to her immediately, visibly excited and comfortable in her presence. She was exceptionally communicative, always checking in and ensuring that she fully understood and addressed all our specific needs regarding their care. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our pets and went above and beyond to make sure they felt loved and secure.”

About: Please note: We prefer hypoallergenic dogs since I have a son that's a little allergic, but we're willing to meet your dog and see how he does. He's fine with some dogs so we haven't figured it out. My family and I love dogs. They're therapeutic and we LOVE to snuggle them and play with them. I’ve had many years of experience with dogs. I've taken care of senior dogs and a dog with special needs, I've taken care of puppies, I've taken care of a female dog in heat and I've had up to 6 dogs at my house before for a dog play date. I've raised two puppies in my lifetime and I've had several different dogs, most of them were rescue dogs from the shelter. I've gone to people's homes to house sit and watch their dogs or to just let their dogs out, I've walked peoples dogs and I've met several different kinds of dogs when we take our dog to the dog park. I love them all and so does my dog Milo! I'm a stay at home mom so I am home often and will be available for your dog as much as I can. I can play with your dog(s), snuggle them, feed them, walk them and love them. I do prefer dogs that don't bark a whole lot, since I have a baby that still naps. I have a fenced backyard and I have a friendly dog that will welcome and play with your dog. Assuming your dog is house trained, I'm happy to have them in my home but if it's good weather, I do put them outside often during the day. If your dog likes to run off, please make sure you let me know so we can be extra careful. Although I have a son that's learning to keep the front door shut so dogs won't run out and a toddler who is curious and pulls at dogs hair sometimes, I will try everything in my power to keep your dog safe and feeling comfortable and loved!

“Victoria did an amazing job watching Copper. She was very attentive to his needs and gave him plenty of exercise with a 1-2 mile walk every day. She gave him tons of love and potty breaks frequently.”

“Mark was amazing with our 3 dogs. We were very hesitant to leave them with someone we didn't know for a week and a half. But, Mark was so great to come over beforehand to meet us and meet the girls to make sure it was going to be a good fit for everyone. Mark was great with asking questions and making sure he understood our expectations before we left. While at our house, he did all the dogs' favorite things with them - long walks, runs, rides in the truck, snuggles on the couch. He kept us posted with pictures and videos and updates. When we got home, he had the house looking even better than we'd left it. We will definitely be looking to Mark first whenever we need someone to care for our girls.”

About: I have grown up with pets my whole life and always been the main person to take care of them. I love taking my dogs on walks and hanging out with them! I love all animals and I think they deserve the best care that one could give! I am used to being around dogs/cats of all ages from puppies to pretty old dogs I currently do not have a job due to just coming back from college in West Virginia, so I have a very free and flexible schedule! I have a fenced yard and I have two dogs of my own that would be able to keep your pups company if needed! They are extremely friendly, however I can also keep them separate from my dogs if requested.

About: Need a sitter who truly understands dogs? I’ve had pets my whole life and currently raise a happy, 2.5 year old pup who is a total social butterfly. Your dog won't just get a attentive sitter—they’ll get a built-in playmate! I love reinforcing good manners and ensuring every dog feels safe, loved, and thoroughly entertained. I am currently on summer break from school and am home full time. Our days include playtime at home, walks around the neighborhood, and an occasional trip to the dog park. I have an unfenced grassy area outside my front door that we use for play. May dog is also always up for play. I am able to crate dogs if needed too.

About: I’ve had a lifelong passion for animals and truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and needs. I have years of hands-on experience owning, training, and caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels, including seniors and high-energy breeds. From a young age, I began regularly walking, training, and caring for neighbors’ pets after they saw how well-mannered and happy my animals were. I’m attentive, patient, and highly observant of animal behavior, which helps me create a calm, safe environment and respond to each dog appropriately. I’m also experienced in caring for cats and am comfortable managing a variety of temperaments and routines for animals of all kinds. Providing reliable, compassionate care and giving pet parents peace of mind is something I truly value, and I love building trust with both pets and their people and creating a genuine relationship! Every morning I take the pups on a walk or run, and on every day but Tuesdays and Thursdays, I do backyard playtime in the afternoon, then every day in the evenings is indoor playtime. And on the weekends, I love to take my dogs on long hikes, to the dog park, or to go swimming! Please note that I am a student, so there will be times when they will need to be alone and unsupervised, usually kenneled, but I make it a point to expend energy before and after an absence like that so they will want to nap whilst I am away. I am very experienced in interpreting dog behavior/body language and handling stressful situations. I value honesty and transparency, and you can be sure to expect pictures and videos! :) I am willing to feed, walk, water, and brush your animals. Whatever they need, I am up for it!

About: My husband and I have had dogs big and small growing up so we’re very familiar with their mannerisms, behavior and unique personalities. We’ve had our own dogs for four years and love them dearly, they’re our babies! I’m currently a stay-at-home mom so I am available and pretty flexible for the most part throughout the day. My dogs help me around the house as I get things done. I have a fenced in yard with two of my own dogs to keep yours company! Occasionally I let the dogs inside to hang out and eat, or depending on the weather to keep warm/cool. At bedtime I bring them in to sleep in their dog crate.

About: I grew up with dogs and love them more than people. I’m Patient, am experienced with senior pets, and administering oral meds and eye drops. I work FT M-F a standard 8-5 but have an hour lunch I can go check on your fur baby to make sure they’re ok! I care for every pet like my own, with lots of love, snuggles, and personalized attention, ensuring comfort, safety, happiness, routines, playtime, and peace of mind always.** 🐾💖

About: I've been around animals my whole life. I'm excited to take care of your furry family. I've trained horses and I have a dog of my own who is very sweet and kind. I'm able to walk your pets, or drop by all hours of the day. I'll make sure they're well taken care of and loved 😋🩷 I have an open house, large back yard and a sizable built in kennel off to the side of the house. I'll be able to take care of all your pets needs and we'll have lots of fun together
