House Sitting Gambles

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 13 years old. I have one dog named Zeus who is like a child to me and one cat named Tito who I also adore! Sometimes I think I like animals more than people😂. Animals always love me and I always treat them like my own:)) I currently do not work so my schedule is always open no matter what time or day of the week! I’m free almost all the time:)) I have an open yard with a long chain I use for potty breaks or outdoor play time! We also have many neighbor dogs who love to make new friends! All of my neighbor dogs play together and get along great with my dog.

“She did a great job. Everything went smoothly, the house was clean when I got home, and the dogs were happy and well cared for. I’d absolutely book with her again.”

“Terri did a fantastic job with our boys! From meeting them before our booking to making sure she gave excellent care throughout the night while we were away.”

“Cassie was awesome! We needed a last minute sitter, and she was super flexible with our short notice. Our pup immediately loved her too, and she was great about keeping in touch with us throughout her visit. I highly recommend!”

“Megan was AMAZING with my fur babies!! This was our first time having someone we didn’t personally know watch them and I cannot say enough good things about her. She kept in contact with me the whole time we were gone and sent pictures everyday. She even crocheted a bandana for our pup. She put our minds at ease while we were away. I would definitely use her again.”

About: I have a natural talent for taking care of dogs and walking them with patience and confidence. Whether it’s making sure they’re well-fed, groomed, or simply happy, I pay attention to their needs and treat them with genuine care. On walks, im calm but in control, keeping the dogs safe while letting them explore and enjoy their surroundings. Dogs respond well to your energy, and it’s clear that I build trust with them quickly. My love for animals make me someone dogs—and their owners—can rely on. I work part time and am available most days of the week to walk or house sit. I also am available on the weekends to take care of dogs. I stick closely to the pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. Pets thrive on routine. I make sure the home is pet-proofed. Remove harmful items, secure doors and gates, and ensure the pet has access to clean water, a cozy sleeping area, and toys.

About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and have experience fostering rescue dogs, caring for strays, and pet sitting for family, friends, and repeat clients. As a professional nanny, I’m responsible, attentive, and reliable. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or extra love while you’re away, I’ll treat them like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m working part time and love to be active and on the go, running errands around town it makes it easy to fit your needs into my schedule. During in-home visits, I’ll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, clean up any messes, and provide plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or a few extra treats and cuddles, I’ll make sure your furry family member feels happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away!

“Sydney was great! She met with us last minute and stayed with our guys while we were away. She sent pics and kept us updated all weekend. Everyone was very well taken care of and happy! We will definitely have Sydney over again when we go out of town!”

“Jocelyn was fantastic with our 2 dogs and housesitting. It was the first time we had someone other than family stay at our home with our dogs, so we were a little concerned how everything would go. Jocelyn was very reassuring with her updates and pics of our pups. It was a good experience and we hope that Jocelyn will be available for our next vacation. We highly recommend her!”

Beth M.

“Kristie was so wonderful. She was extremely attentive to my dog's needs, gave him a lot of attention, and he very clearly loved her from the pictures she sent. She consistently sent photos of the routes they walked on Google maps to show that she'd made sure Franklin was given enough exercise and stimulation, which I really appreciated. I would absolutely book her again!”

Cora P.

“Bea did a great job housesitting for me and looking after my two big shy rescue dogs for a week. The dogs seemed happy and healthy when I got home and the house was in great shape. Bea provided daily pics and updates and was prompt in her replies. Overall a great experience and I hope to be able to work with her again!”

About: Dogs and cats have always been a big part of my life, offering comfort through tough times. I genuinely love being around animals and caring for them. (I allow animals on my bed I’m not sure how to change that ) I have classes, but your fur baby will always be my top priority. I’m home every evening to care for them, except Fridays when I’m working on the ambulance. Walking, feeding, watering, bathing and getting all their zoomies out. I enjoy walking and physical activity meaning they will be tired out by the end of the night.

About: I have been watching our neighbors and family friend’s dogs and doing drop-ins since I was little. My family has also had a dog since I was in highschool. I take him on walks every evening and am responsible for feeding and letting him out when my family is out of town. As well as my sisters dog when she stays with us. I am available throughout the day to do drop-in’s, go on walks or spend time with them at home throughout the day. Aside from a random day I have plans, my schedule is very flexible. I have a dog I take on walks at home and enjoy being outside with. As well as playing/throwing their toys or sitting together at home.

“James took such great care of my puppy. He kept me updated daily, sent lots of pictures and definitely put her at ease in my absence. She was in great shape when we arrived home. I highly recommend James”

Mary H.

“Kaleigh was a perfect sitter! She loves Doughboy as much as I do and gave him a great week with her. She sent lots of photos and updates throughout the week. We will definitely use her again!”

“There is no rating high enough for Sarah. From pre-booking to the home visit, to watching our home and our fur babies while we were on vacation, Sarah was amazing. Her situation was unique that in addition to taking care of our adult cats, we asked her to take care of a (somewhat friendly) mama cat and her 5 week old kittens. Sarah graciously offered her time for 24/7 care. And of course, just when we thought all was going smoothly, a hornet appeared in our finished basement which is unusual. This is where mama and babies are located. Then another one appeared - VERY unusual. When the third one appeared, not so far from the kittens, Sarah sprang into action and, together, we figured out a safe solution to draw any potential bees inside the home to outside the home. Sarah was a real trooper and took care of the home and pets like they were her own. No more bees appeared and life returned to “normal”. Well, as normal as can be for a home with cats and kittens. I can vouch for Sarah and she will be our first choice for future house and pet care needs. Sarah is friendly, trustworthy, and an excellent communicator and our fur babies loved her.”

About: I'm a wife, mom, friend and animal lover. Over the years I've cared for dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, parakeets, snakes, guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, mice and fish. I love the chaos and rewards of owning and taking care of pets (and kids lol) I currently work from home, so I have a lot of flexibility in watching and caring for animals. My kids are nine and eleven and absolutely love animals, and will excitedly help and love on your animals in the evenings and on weekends. We have a closed off, finished basement and some rooms in the house that aren't routinely used and are consistently quiet. We also have high-traffic rooms with dog-friendly toys and beds. My dog, Mazie, loves to play with other dogs, but we can easily separate her if needed. If you pup likes to snuggle on the bed, (s)he will be well cared for in my son's room as he enjoys doggie hugs and cuddles!
