Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Germantown Meadows

About: I have been caring for animals since I was a small child. I’ve cared for fish, frogs, Guinea pigs, cats, dogs, etc. I have plenty experience dog sitting and dog walking a variety of breeds, ages, and plenty of fun quirks. I’m currently available Tuesdays and weekends, and I’m happy to work with pet parents looking for consistent weekly care, especially midday drop-ins. Building a routine and getting to know your pet’s personality is my favorite part of pet sitting! I always make sure the fur babies have fresh water and food if need be. I try to include a little play time of some variety along with plenty of cuddles.

“Haley cared for my cat Pumpkin while I was away for a weekend. She was great with her - playing and cuddling and sending updates. I will happily ask Haley to come again :)”

About: As a dedicated vet assistant, I have immersed myself in understanding animal well-being. I handle a variety of different animals varying in shapes and sizes at work. I am well educated on animal temperaments and proper care. For eight years, I was the primary caregiver for a senior dog with a heart condition. He sadly passed away in October of 2023 after living a long happy life of 20 years! Prior to having my little dog Prince, I have had various pets throughout my entire life, everywhere from puppies to birds to reptiles. I now share my home with my two rescued cats, Doja and Marble, and a rescue dog named Abe! Abe is friendly and loves to play with other dogs. I have a large gate in the home to separate the cats from the dogs, so there will be no stressors for any of the pets who stay with me. Having cared for animals with diverse medical conditions and temperaments, I am adept at recognizing signs of discomfort or distress, and I am well-prepared to handle unexpected situations with care. With my experience in veterinary medicine, I also offer nail trims for an additional cost! Please reach out to me if you would like this included in your service. I am available part time to care for your furry family! Message me the date and time and I will do my very best to work it into my schedule. My previous dog had a strict medication and vitamins routine so I am no stranger to a pet with extra needs. Please make me aware of any restrictions, medications, temperaments, or other various topics I will need to know to ensure your pet has the safest and most caring time with me!

“Valerie was absolutely wonderful!!! She FAR exceeded my expectations! She responded to my request within an hour and had excellent communication with me the entire time. My son is out of town and she went to his apartment to check on his cat, Luna. Luna is extremely shy and rarely comes out for anyone — she barely comes out for me — but Valerie was so patient and gentle with her. She stayed with Luna, sent me photos and updates, and even cleaned out a very unpleasant litter box that I truly didn’t expect anyone to deal with. That alone meant so much. You can immediately tell she has a genuine love for animals and such a kind, caring soul❤️. Valerie is recently retired and clearly does this because she truly loves animals, and it shows in the level of care she gives. I cannot say enough good things about her!! I will absolutely be using her again and again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and incredibly kind with their pets. 🐾❤️❤️❤️”

“Mia jumped right in and came to meet my dog the night I requested her. She is reliable and sends lots of pictures. I feel confident my dog is well cared for with her.”

Laura K.

“This was our first time using Rover and Kristi was awesome! She came to let our dog out and feed her while we were away for the day. And my cat who never comes out when someone new is in the house actually came downstairs and hung out with her! I'm still so amazed! Kristi even cleaned the food container for us! She went way above and beyond for us! Will definitely use her again!”

Sharon C.

“Anne did a good job watching our two kittens while we were away. She spent time talking with them and playing. It was our first time using a pet sitter in our home. We feel we will use Rover again.”

She is also very considerate with Cersei and accommodating to her needs for the past few months and Cersei loves her. She will continue to be my go-to whenever I need someone to help with Cersei.”

About: I am very good at paying attention to specific pet needs, routines, and preferences. I am diligent about safety, securing doors and gates, handling pets on leashes/harnesses, and being vigilant about potential hazards in the home. I have a very flexible schedule. I am available during the day and in the evening. I can work with any schedule, just let me know. I am diligent about safety. I will provide regular updates and photos. I will respect your home and your privacy. I have one adult cat in the home.

About: Hi, I’m Kyri! I’m a lifelong dog lover who knows every pup has their own personality, quirks, and favorite belly rub spot. Whether it’s long walks, cozy cuddle time, or keeping up with special routines, I make sure your dog feels loved and cared for while you’re away. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I’m happy to send photo updates so you can see their tail wags in real time. My goal is to give your best friend the same care and attention I give my own 😊 so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy, and having fun. I can comfortably board 5 dogs at once (depending on size.) Please check out my availability 😁 I ask that all pet parents please stick closely to their drop off and pick up times. Bookings can be modified to accommodate any changes. I work full-time as a CNC machinist on first shift (Monday–Friday, 7:00 am–3:30 pm), which allows me to provide pet care in the evenings and overnight. During the day, I can accommodate pets who are comfortable being crated for up to 8 hours, and I’m also happy to leave pets uncaged if they are well-behaved and safe in the home. After work, I’m available for walks, playtime, and lots of attention to make sure your pet feels loved and cared for. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved ❤️ with plenty of playtime in my fenced yard, walks to the nearby park, and lots of cuddles. I stick closely to each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, and any special care instructions, so they feel right at home. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would my own, making sure pets are well-fed, exercised, and given attention while also keeping the home secure and tidy. In either setting, my goal is to provide a stress-free, happy experience for both pets and their people.

“Shaelyn is awesome! So thankful for how she cared for my kitties while I was away- I was slow to message and she read my mind with some of the things I forgot to mention ahead of time (e.g. adding extra litter to the litter box). Reliable and 100% will book again!!”

About: Hi, I’m Erica. I’m 36 and I have two cats at home. I currently only accept cats and dogs and no livestock, which will have to be handed by someone else. I can’t wait to meet you!🐾 I believe what sets me apart from other sitters is the passion I and love I put into my business and the animals I care for. When I get to do a drop in and visit with a regular client I absolutely love the time I get with the animals I care for. I bring gifts, treats, and all the cuddles. I look forward to that more than the money. Pet care is my full time job. On a weekly basis I am always busy with regular clients and always accepting new ones. Pet care is my main priority. If you're pets are in my care inside my home, I do have young children (who will not bother your pets because they pay no mind). I also have my own 3 cats. My cats get along with all animals. But I can accomodate my upstairs area to your pets if they do not get along with other animals so they are not bothered and are in a quiet space with only me. I also follow client instructions for their pets to a T when its comes to their pets. Whilst in the clients home, I follow instructions left for me. Whether it be medicine times, potty breaks, feeding times, walking instructions, cleaning instructions etc., whatever the client wants for me to do I make sure it is done. If this is an over night stay all of this will still be the same. I hang out with the pets, play and cuddle with them, as well as make sure they have everything they need when they need it so they aren't thrown off their routine to much.

“Wow - so excited to meet Aine -super kind fo doggos and professional, courteous, communicative!!! Happy to have found her!!! Highly recommend ;)”

“Marisha has taken care of our 3 cats several times. She is conscientious and excellent at comminicating. She has also been willing to feed community cats (at our request) that stop by. She has gone above and beyond on a couple of occasions. I will hire her again.”

About: With over 7 years of experience as a pet sitter, I've cared for a wide range of dogs and cats, providing tailored, compassionate care to each one. I’m known for my attention to detail, ensuring pets’ needs are met with precision, from feeding and exercise to administering medications. Trustworthy and kind, I build strong, lasting relationships with both pets and owners. Whether it's a playful dog or a laid-back cat, I offer peace of mind by creating a safe, comfortable environment. If you're looking for a reliable, animal-loving sitter, I’m here to care for your pets as if they were my own. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. Despite working full-time, I make it a priority to ensure pets receive the attention and care they need. I’m typically able to let dogs out during my lunch breaks, providing them with a bathroom break, some playtime, or a quick walk to keep them happy and comfortable. For house sitting, I dedicate my evenings and weekends to being fully present with the pets I care for, ensuring they feel safe and loved in their home environment. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to their routines and provide consistent, reliable care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both the pets and the home with the utmost care and respect, as if they were my own. I understand the trust that comes with inviting someone into your home, and I hold myself to a high level of responsibility. I ensure your pets are well cared for, following their daily routines for feeding, walking, playtime, and any special needs they may have. At the same time, I maintain your home’s cleanliness and security, handling tasks like bringing in the mail, watering plants, and ensuring everything is in order. My goal is to provide peace of mind while you're away, knowing both your home and pets are in good hands.

“Absolutely fantastic with our kitty! Gave excellent care and attention to her, and it was obvious she was giving her attention and not just doing her job and letting her sit until her time ran out. Always gave updates and information on how she was doing and continued the care as scheduled even when I was out of service and couldn't answer questions. 10/10 would recommend her and use her again!”
