House Sitting in Herald

“Megan did great with my cats. They’re usually a little shy with new people but looks like they were comfortable with her right away. If the cats are happy and content then I’m happy, will book Megan again!”

“Alina saved our weekend. She was available on short notice and stayed with our dog while we went to a wedding. She was very attentive with Ivy and was very responsive to my multiple texts. Would use her again!”

About: I've been housesitting since 2010, mainly cats and dogs. Multi-pet houses don't bother me and I'm good at keeping with your fur kids' schedules. I have and RVT license that is current and have been an RVT for over 10 years. I took a break from housesitting to work at animal hospitals, including a 24-hour critical care hospital in the ICU. Medications and medical treatments are no problem for me. I have an open schedule and am comfortable with either staying at your home for your pet's comfort, or I can visit everyday to make sure they are cared for. I adjust to their wants and needs and stick to their schedule. I'm low stress and understand that sometimes pets just need to warm up to you. As for my personal pets, there's four cats with totally different personalities that run the house (I just live there).

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years and truly love getting to know each one’s personality. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and look after their dogs of all breeds and sizes. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, and those who need a little extra patience or training. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, or quiet cuddles, I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and happy while in my care. I’m currently working part time, I can care for your pet before work and after work. I will work less than 12 hours a week so I’m hoping to be available often. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always treat their space with the same respect as my own. I follow each pet’s routine closely to help them feel comfortable and secure. I make sure doors and gates are always locked, water bowls are fresh, and pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and love. I send regular photo updates so you can feel confident your furry family member is happy and safe while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’m Terrell, you can call me Tee, your go-to pet caretaker with a passion for all animals big and small. Beyond dogs, I have experience with cats, goats, chickens, and more! I love spending time with each pet, understanding their personalities, and giving them the specific care they need. From playful puppies to gentle goats, I’m here to keep your animal family happy, healthy, and loved. Reach out—I’d love to meet your crew! I’m currently working part-time and live on a farm surrounded by animals, so I have a flexible schedule that’s all about caring for animals! I’m available for boarding if the situation is right, and am more than happy to do drop in visits or walks. I’m always excited to bring a bit of the farm’s lively energy to every pet I meet! Living on a farm gives me a deep respect for animals’ unique needs and routines. I have a secure, fenced yard and plenty of space for playtime. If boarding at my farm is the right fit for your pet, they’ll get a taste of peaceful farm life. Otherwise, I’m happy to come to your home so your pet can feel safe in their familiar space.

About: Unlike general pet sitters, I have a background as a veterinary assistant. I am comfortable administerting oral and injectable medications. I also believe that honestly and clear communication are key. I will treat your pet and home with the up most respect. I will treat your fur babies as they where one on mine. I do currently work a full time job Monday through friday. But I am fully capable of attending to your pets or house before my I have my own backyard and front yard for them to play in, if they would be staying with me. I also have a decimated area inside my house.That has toys and food and beds.Just for life for babies.

About: I am 19 years old doing this so I can make some extra money on the side and currently take care of my older brother, who has autism, which has taught me how to remain composed, aware, and reliable in all situations. Those skills are easily applied to pet care, particularly with nervous, timid, or sensitive animals. For example, my own dog has depression anxiety which I make sure to tend to quickly! I can easily fit time with your lovely pets into my daily schedule. I'm free any time after 11AM because I get my brother on the bus at around nine in the morning. Since I'm still learning how to drive, I typically take the bus, train, or Uber to get around. The only thing I know is that I might have to wait until about 5 PM for my mom to return if she works overtime on a Friday, but that rarely ever happens. There is a chance that my schedule can improve so make sure to keep an eye out! I treat every pet under my care as if they were a member of my own family. Making them feel secure, understood, and loved is always my top priority. By feeding them on time, taking them for walks or play, and making sure they receive lots of attention and are comfortable, I try to keep things as simple as possible. I make sure they have everything they require, keep their area neat, and regularly change their water. To reassure the owner that their pet is happy, safe and in good care, I also provide updates and pictures

About: Looking back on my life, there’s never been a time. I haven’t had a dog. Dogs to me are like built-in best friends. I do not know of any adult or child that runs up and greets me with kisses hugs and pure excitement. I’ve always said I wish people Could take lessons from dogs of how to treat each other. Every dog is unique and special in their own way. I am currently retired and am able to give any of our four legged guest attention and companionship. I enjoy spending time with dogs so they will be well cared for while with me. Weather, I am caring for your dog at my own home or in their home safety and care is my number one priority. My own dogs have the belief that they own our home and our gracious enough to let us stay.. We have a huge backyard and allow our animals to sit on Couch to watch TV with us and of course they sleep in bed with us. I also have a separate room for overnight visitors with a bad and room to play.

“Charlotte was amazing! She was communicative and responsive. She was proactive about questions and when I got home Perla was very well loved! Definitely would use again and highly recommend!”

“Absolutely thrilled with Nicole's care for my Weimaraner, Finley! As a "Velcro dog" who's usually attached to me at all times, Finley can be a bit needy, but Nicole handled him beautifully. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which put me completely at ease even while I was out of the country. Finley was clearly happy, relaxed, and well cared for in every update. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I’m incredibly grateful for her phenomenal work. Highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a caring, responsible sitter!”

“Sarah was absolutely amazing with my dog Emma and Piper. She came over for a meet and greet prior to the sitting with my dogs and they immediately liked her. I was gone for several days and she took great care of my pups. She sent videos and pictures every day. I would highly recommend Sarah and will certainly use her again!”

About: I am a dedicated and experienced pet lover with 9 years of hands-on pet care experience. I raised my female Pit Bull Terrier from the time she was just 2 months old and cared for her throughout every stage of her life. During that time, I provided daily care, companionship, and basic training, teaching her commands such as sit, shake, lay down, high five, and dance. I recently lost her, which has only strengthened my love and respect for animals. I would be honored to provide attentive, patient, and loving care while helping train and enrich your pet’s daily routine. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. I currently work nights, which gives me full availability during the day to provide attentive pet sitting in my home or yours. I truly enjoy starting my mornings and afternoons with walks or jogs, making it easy for me to give pets consistent exercise, companionship, and care throughout the day. Your pet would receive plenty of attention, activity, and a calm, structured daytime routine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I have a secure cement backyard and a pool that is closely monitored to ensure a safe environment at all times. I also live extremely close to a park with a large open field, perfect for supervised walks, exercise, and play. Inside, my home is spacious and pet-friendly, allowing pets to freely roam, relax, and feel comfortable in a safe, trusted environment that makes them feel at home!

About: I have experience taking care of dogs of all breeds, ages and sizes for up to weeks at a time for neighbors and friends. If they could talk I'm sure they'd recommend me - I always have a blast taking care of them and enjoy playing and exploring with them I work from home and generally have a decent amount of time to spend towards my dog.
