House Sitting Gluckstadt

“Do your pet a favor and hire Cara to pet sit. You will both be glad you did. Cara is kind, dependable, thoughtful and conscientious. She obviously has a way with pets. My cat was enthralled with Cara from the first meeting - headbutting her, rubbing up against her. And, from the pics Cara sent while I was away, my cat’s crush on Cara continued. I was away for nearly three weeks and returned to find a happy and contented cat. Thank you, Cara.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 10. My family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and stay overnight with their pets. I would be a great help and it would be an honor!! I have 2 dogs & 2 cats of my own as well. I work remote full time in Marketing with a lot of flexibility. Because of this, I have a lot of time throughout my day to go on pet walks and bathroom breaks. Working remotely also allows for overnight stays when needed as long as there is a wifi connection! My dogs and cats are all fed day and night, played with often, and cared for as needed. I’m very experienced with animals so I know how to cater and take care of them well.

“Melissa is THE BEST. I cannot say enough amazing things about her and her ability to care for an animal. As we all know, our pets are our babies and she resonates with that! I received numerous photos AND videos of my pup every single day. She took time to take him to his favorite store and let him pick out a toy. Melissa has been my biggest blessing and BEST EXPERIENCE through this app and I couldn’t recommend her enough! I did not have a single worry while I was away on my trip! Thank you, Melissa, for having such a big heart for fur babies!!!! 🩵🩵”

About: Hi there! My name is Olivia and I have been a dog sitter for 10+ years, but an animal lover for my entire life. I would love the opportunity to care for your baby like they are my own while you are away. I have an 11 year old Yorkie named Bella who stills plays all day with the energy of a puppy. I am only able to host small dogs within my home and my baby would love to have a friend her size running around here. However, I am happy to care for any type/size dog within your home and for walks. I am currently working only two days a week so I have plenty of availability to care for your babies like they are my own! I have a fenced in yard with lots of area for your pup to run around! I also have a stroller available for any small/medium dog that is unable to do a full walk so they can still be included in the experience!

About: I’ve been caring for animals since my family adopted our first pet when i was 5 years old! There’s something so special about caring for a pet, to love on and care for an animal is the most rewarding/special privilege! Caring for your animal really is a way I’ve come up with saving my marriage, since my husband has cut me off at 4 animals and won’t allow me to have a small farm in our back yard in the city limits😂 but trust me, if it was up to me, I’d love on ten acres of land and open an animal sanctuary! I am also a mental health therapist, and i personally trained our youngest pup to meet requirements to be a certified therapy dog. He comes to sessions with me almost every day! I work ten minutes from home and rarely work more than four hours at a time, making my schedule perfect for frequent play times and potty breaks! I am a regular runner, it’s my favorite form of exercise. I have all the equipment necessary to take your pup on a run with me! That would be such a joy! Thank you for your consideration and for trusting me with your little family members! Truly, i can’t wait to meet them!❤️ feel free to reach out with questions or more information! I work ten minutes from home and rarely work more than four hours at a time, making my schedule perfect for frequent play times and potty breaks! I am a regular/daily runner, it’s my favorite form of exercise. I have all the equipment necessary to take your pup on a run with me! That would be such a joy! I have a large fenced in back yard and two well behaved pups of my own to keep your dog company! I think having my own dogs is beneficial to me caring for your dogs best because i live my daily life mindful of my own dogs’ needs. I’d love to be trusted with your pup as well!! My dogs are house trained and mostly stay inside to free roam while we are away. They sleep inside as well(mostly on top of us in our bed, haha). Your pup would be welcome to any and all privileges that my dogs enjoy! Or if you have special instructions, I’d love to work with you to accommodate to keep your dog on their normal routine.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years. From afternoon visits to month-long stays, I’ve done it all. I also have experience caring for elderly and sick animals, including my own when she was diagnosed with cancer. I’m patient and kind towards all animals. I adopted two cats in Sept. of 2024 and adore them so much! I work part time at an ice cream shop in Jackson. I have free time in the mornings and most evenings due to the later shop hours. I’m open to any house sits and will stay with your pet! First off, I remain calm and easy when meeting an animal. If I’m able, I like to leave a belonging of mine so they can get used to my scent! I’m a very laidback person so lounging around the house and going out for a walk with your dog is perfect. I love giving pets and cuddling on the couch.

“Alexandria was flexible with a few last minute changes. She took great care of my pets, including my sick bunny who unwillingly had to take oral medications.”

“Laura was wonderful! She stayed at my house to take care of our dog, cat, and tortoise and gave many detailed updates with photos each day of her visit. It left me feeling secure and confident that the animals were in good hands. She also left the house clean and exactly as she found it! I would definitely use Laura’s services again.”

I offer private house & dog sitting, day boarding and walking services within my community and among friends and family members. I am a former veterinary receptionist and assistant well versed in dog boarding, day care/play dates, daily activities/feeding schedules and habits, etc. I also own & have taken care of family members’ dogs all my life since my youth and they’ve always responded positively to my love and affection. I treat every dog like my own children, to me they are family. They all deserve sufficient love, care and attention.

About: As mentioned, I work in vet med! I am experienced with all ages, temperaments, breeds, health issues, and needs! I love a couch potato but I also own and love a working breed. I understand the importance of routine & mental stimulation! I spoil my fur children & understand wanting to keep yours happy while you’re away, but also able to trust that they’re safe! I own a dog that is overcoming his reactivity & that has required a lot of training & positive reinforcement work from myself in the presence of triggers—so I understand the difference in reactivity/anxiety vs aggression. I work full time Fridays through Mondays currently, but I have full availability during the week on Tuesdays through Thursdays. I don’t mind early mornings or late nights I would never leave someone’s pet unattended while under my care. I like for pets to have my full attention when I’m there. It’s what I’d expect & would want for my own! I’m very familar with canine & feline body language, anxiety, & aggression, and I know how to appropriately and effectively approach/handle pets whether they’re scared, reactive, or excited!

“Paula was great keeping our small dog in our home. She sent pictures daily and from her comments I could tell she liked our dog and was having fun with him. She also left the house in great shape. I will definitely use her again!”

“Alexandra did such a great job at taking care of our dogs in our home. They loved her and were very comfortable around her. She updated us through out the day and included pictures. We highly recommend her and we will be using her again.”

About: I have had a dog since I was 10, and have taken care of him my whole life and still do in his senior years. I also have helped with my neighbors dogs by walking them and playing with them. I have done this since I was about 10 as well. I am new to dog sitting, but I think it will be very fun! Until the 12th, I am working as a camp counselor. My hours are 7:30-3:00, but I am happy to see a pet before I work for about 30 minutes, and for however long I need to after I work! I’m also happy to come at night. I am happy to do whatever is needed! I am good with senior dogs as I have one myself, but I’m also happy to play with younger pups and walk and take them out for the bathroom when available. I will also obviously feed them and give them medicine if needed.

“I cannot possibly say enough great things about our experience with Kelly. She was great with our last minute booking, sent lots of pictures and videos, and made sure my dog had the best time staying at her house. I originally had just requested a basic sit, but Kelly went above and beyond to make sure my pup had a blast.”

About: I’ve been working with dogs for over 19 years and provide a structured, calm, and safe environment in my home. I have a dedicated dog room with secure kennels, supervised interaction, and clear boundaries. I currently own and train multiple dogs, including a fully trained service animal and another dog I’ve personally raised and developed. This gives me strong experience with behavior, energy management, and different personalities. Dogs in my care are treated like family, but with structure. They can enjoy comfort like furniture once they demonstrate respectful behavior and cleanliness. I do not allow destructive or uncontrolled habits. I’m comfortable with puppies and can reinforce basic training, routine, and good behavior during their stay. I also provide advanced training reinforcement as part of my care. Dogs naturally work on obedience, confidence, impulse control, and daily mental and physical engagement while they’re here. I have experience building service-style task foundations and higher-level behavior, but I do not certify service animals. Every dog benefits from structure in my home, whether they need basic manners or more advanced work. My focus is safety, consistency, and communication so every dog is properly supervised, exercised, and leaves more balanced, responsive, and confident. Pet care is part of my daily routine, not something I fit in on the side. I’m home most of the day, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, structured interaction, and regular potty breaks, exercise, and mental engagement. My background in disciplined environments has shaped how I run my home—dogs here benefit from routine, clear expectations, and a calm, controlled atmosphere. Each day includes a balance of activity, training reinforcement, and rest so dogs stay healthy, settled, and stress-free. Because I’m available throughout the day, I can adapt to each dog’s needs—whether that’s higher energy, puppy structure, or a more relaxed pace. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care so owners can feel confident their dog is safe, engaged, and well looked after at all times. Safety, trust, and structure are the foundation of how I care for every dog. My home is set up specifically for pet care, with a dedicated dog room, secure kennels, and supervised interaction at all times. I carefully manage introductions and only allow dogs to interact once they are calm, balanced, and a good fit. Dogs in my care follow a structured routine that includes regular potty breaks, exercise, mental stimulation, and rest. I maintain clear boundaries while still allowing comfort—dogs can enjoy furniture and a relaxed environment once they demonstrate respectful behavior and cleanliness. I require dogs to be crate familiar or comfortable with structured downtime. Owners are encouraged to provide a crate or familiar setup for overnight stays, though I have limited kennel space available if needed. I prioritize communication and will keep owners updated with how their dog is doing. My goal is to provide a calm, controlled environment where dogs feel safe, are properly supervised, and leave more balanced and well cared for than when they arrived.
