House Sitting in Hamburg

“As always Darlene is wonderful with the dogs. Even though is was only 1 overnight, she still kept us updated with pictures and kept the dogs very busy even when it rained by playing games with them in the house.”

“Natalie was amazing! Our pups absolutely loved her and got the attention they needed while we were away. Natalie even had to look after our beloved fish named Gary who is surprisingly social for a fish! Natalie will be first on our pet/house sitter list in future.”

“Daphne was very understanding of my dog’s needs and went above and beyond my expectations. Will definitely reach out to her again. Thanks so much!!!”

“Meghan has cared for my pets for several years. She is always professional but so caring and gentle. She seems to get down on their level and really connect with them. You can tell that she really loves dogs. Even when I had more than 1 dog she easily took care of them all. She takes the time to make sure all their needs are met and that they are happy! I never worry about my dogs when I am away. You can be sure that if Meghan is taking care of your dogs they will be happy.....and so will you!”

“We had Grayson stay in our home when we went on vacation for a week, and she took such good care of our dog, 2 cats, and fish. She checked in with us everyday to update us on how everything was going. Our dog, Pippa, has separation anxiety and for the first couple of days she wasn’t eating great, one time didn’t want to go outside for her walk, and was generally standoffish. Grayson was quick to let us know that she seemed to be having an hard time adjusting, so we were able to advise her on how she could try to make our pup more comfortable. With Grayson’s gentle encouragement and mindfulness to her anxiety triggers, she was able to bring Pippa’s anxiety down and helped her adjust to our absence relatively quickly. We were so happy when Grayson told us that they had started to bond, even having some snuggle time! She was able to take Pippa on some long walks/runs (which we had previously okayed), when our dog typically doesn’t trust relative strangers enough to leave our property with them for walks. I wanted to share all of this to convey how wonderful Grayson is with animals, as evidenced by the bond she was able to create with our anxious pup. It’s so important to have a sitter that can put you at ease when you are entrusting them with your home and beloved pets, and Grayson did just that—and beyond. She immediately let us know when one of our cats knocked something over and broke it, and even offered to replace it for us. She is just a very kind, thoughtful, and respectful person in general, and we definitely got that impression from her upon our very first meeting. We are just thrilled to have found her and will continue to use her services for a long time to come. Grayson, we genuinely appreciate everything and are sending you the biggest thank you!!!”

“Darina took such great care for my dog while I was away for the day. She made sure she got plenty of outdoor time, even though it was a very rainy day. My dog doesn’t warm up to everyone quickly but she did with Darina! Thank you!!”

“Samantha is an experienced pet owner who treats every pet as if they are her own. Her extensive knowledge of pet care, paired with her responsibility and approachability, puts every pet owner at ease. From a laidback senior, to a rambunctious puppy, Samantha is an animal lover through and through who has the skillset to handle any care your pet may need.”

“Nia sat for our cats while we were on vacation. She was very kind, responsible and caring with our babies. I felt that they were in great hands and my anxieties about leaving them alone were all gone with her care. I completely recommend her services!!”

“Jon did a great job taking care of our four cats while we were out of town for Thanksgiving! We really appreciated the frequent updates and pics. The cats were doing well when we returned home. Thanks Jon!”

“Ryan did an excellent job watching our two dogs this past weekend! They were both happy and tired when we got home. He sent lots of pictures too. You could tell he is very passionate about animals. We will definitely be using Ryan again for any pet sitting needs.”

“Sarah was amazing. She cared for our Murphy like he was her own. He was so happy when we got home!”

“Claire has watched my cats several times and is highly responsible and reliable. She clearly has a love of animals and can be trusted to arrive on time and handle any situations that arise. I trust her completely not only with my animals but in my home as well. She stays in touch to let us know that all is well and we can enjoy being away without worry. I highly recommend Claire!”

“Kim is very friendly and accommodative! Our pup Jupi loves her. She took care of Jupi when we were out for an evening. Though it was a last minute request Kim was kind to accept my request and take care of Jupi! We would definitely have her again!”

“Lakota is a caring and attentive sitter. Our dogs, and others I've seen her around, all just love her! Lakota has excellent communication skills that instill confidence while we're away, and she's very professional in the way that she respects our home. We highly recommend Lakota to anyone seeking a reliable and loving caregiver!”

“Athena is wonderful with dogs! For the past six months, Athena has been walking my dogs whenever needed. Athena takes the time to provide playtime with my 7 month-old puppy after his walks, and he really enjoys this. My dogs love when Athena comes. She is always responsible and punctual. I trust her completely, and you will too!”

About: I am a true animal lover and I would treat your animals as my own. I have lots of pet care experience from having my own of 2 cats and 1 dog and taking care of some friends. I have done 2 years of pet therapy with my own dog and completed basic to advanced dog training. I have volunteered for father john animal house and eleventh hour rescue to get some shelter experience and more dog exposure. I would prefer to work with small to medium dog size. My second hobby is animal training which is a rewarding experience to me from dog socialization to learning basic commands. I just love working with dogs and is rewarding in seeing the dog learned the command. As i like to walk daily, pets fit into my daily schedule perfectly. Our daily morning schedule usually 7 days a week is potty upon awakening, breakfast and playtime upon first hour. Then a morning walk and another one around dinner time. I have a unfenced yard but believe exercise is a high requirement for the dog. What i do in place is 2 daily neighborhood walks and take her occasionally to local parks to walk around for different smells and meet other friendly dogs. Also believe in going to any local dog events for shelters to give dog interactions/ socialization.

About: I’m 25 years old. I own two dogs myself (King Charles Spaniel mixes). One of which has a severe medical condition which requires medication. So I am comfortable giving dogs pills. I love them both to pieces. I have also walked my neighbors dogs ever since I was 15. I know CPR and first aid. Unfortunately, I can’t administer shots to a dog. Reason being that I’ve never done it before. Also I’m not a big fan of needles and I don’t think the dogs are either. I love exercise so we would both be happy at the end of the day. In the end, I promise to care for your dogs like they were my own. Thank you for considering me to be your dog walker. I’m currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I work mostly nights, so the day time is best for me. I’m sure we’ll work out the best situation for all of us. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs that can keep your fur baby company. I can crate my dogs if needed. I also have pee pads ready for puppies and lots of toys.

“I highly recommend Brenda & Francis! Our dogs took to them right away! That says a lot because one of our dogs can be a bit temperamental when you first meet him, however, he was seemingly happy and comfortable! What a relief! Thank you Brenda & Francis!”

“Allie took amazing care of my two German Shepard’s. One of which is elderly and has trouble getting up and controlling his hind legs as well as bowels. So needless to say he needs a little extra attention. I highly recommend Allie to watch dogs of all ages from puppy’s to seniors since she has much experience with them as well as other animals including cats, horses, chickens, chinchillas etc.”

“Jaimee has pet sat for both my dogs, a goldendoodle and labradoodle. We’ve used her for 5+ years and she is very reliable. We’ve left our dogs for up to 7 days with Jaimee and have been so pleased with how well she cares for them. You can expect pictures on hikes and cute videos of them playing! I missed them even more because of the fun they were having without me! And when they see Jaimee pull up the excitement is unmistakable. I know my dogs are in good hands with Jaimee because she is also a vet tech. Highly recommend! She is kind, reliable and willing to match your dog’s energy.”
