Dog Sitting in Herminie

About: With over 5 years of dedicated pet care experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge and affection to every furry friend I meet. As a proud owner of three German Shepherds, two of whom are rescues, I understand the unique needs and joys of every pet. Your beloved companions are in safe and loving hands with me. I work from home with a flexible schedule so I have plenty of time to give pups the attention they need - whether it be a quick visit or a neighborhood walk! Safety is my number one priority when it comes to your pup! I aim to make sure that your pup is safe with me whether it be in a fenced in yard, on a lead, or on a walk!

“Madi is great!”

“Kaleigh really stepped up when the previous sitter canceled without even so much as a message. She obviously has a history of working with dogs. She was informative and easy to contact. I would definitely recommend and will keep her at the top of my list next time I need a sitter.”

About: Over the course of my life, I’ve owned seven different types of pets, from horses to cats and dogs and others in between! This pet care experience that started in early childhood has led me to appreciate, understand, and know how to handle different furry family members’ personalities. In addition, I have pet at for various families in my community, all of whom had various pets with different needs and temperaments. It would be my honor to care for your pet and give them the treatment they deserve as part of your family. I am currently a college student with a fairly flexible schedule, with availability throughout different parts of the day. I am able to provide pet care throughout most days of the week in general! I am willing to abide by and uphold any of your standard practices for your pet! The last thing I’d like to do is disrupt your pet schedule or routine, so I will do everything in my ability to follow your standards to the letter.

“Crystal did a great job. Very professional. Came on time and did all the things we asked of her to perfection!”

“Jess was great! She did a great job with communicating a meet and greet and all the details about the drop-ins for my cat. She really made me feel comfortable he was getting all the cuddles and attention he needed :)”

About: My love for dogs is unmatched! I’m a junior in college who absolutely adores dogs and also happens to want to make money for tuition😂 For the summer : *for house sitting, Im available every day but on weekdays I would need to leave from 4:30-7 to go to work. Mon-Thurs: any time up until 3:30pm or after 7pm Fri, Sat, Sun : free all day I am super flexible! During the summer I have a very open schedule - so we can work around it more. Once I start school again I’ll update my availability! I will treat your animals with the care, love, and respect they deserve. Everything I do, I put 110% into, and I’ll make sure your pups feel loved! I always make sure to check if there’s ever notes from the client, get the important things done (like meds, food, necessary walks/bathroom) and then be able to focus on playtime or whatever your pup wants!

“We never left our dogs with anyone except family and Emma went above and beyond. She’s very sweet and caring and we will definitely use her services again!”

About: I’m Emily! A little about me: I love to run, lift, paint, and read. I am currently a student at the University of Pittsburgh studying Speech Pathology and Audiology who’s home for the summer! I've been a pet owner myself for about 5 years now. My family currently has three cats and has had a dog and another cat in the past. Within the last seven years I have dog and cat sat for a lot of my extended family and friends. I'm currently on the hunt for a part-time job for the summer, so I have plenty of time on my hands to look after and care for pets. I also have my own car and am hanging out with friends a lot, so I am always around. I am very diligent with making sure doors and windows are shut and locked to ensure that your pets do not go in or out (if they're indoor pets/ not on a leash) as I have to do that with my own pets! I also realize as it grows hotter, animals become dehydrated and hot as well, and I am careful to make sure water bowls are filled, and there is water during walks as well.

About: I have taken care of animals and pets since I was young. Growing up, we had puppies, dogs, cats, rabbits and chickens. With my children we had guinea pigs, hamsters, and cats. I currently work full time but I have a full hour for lunch to stop by and care for your pets. I can do drop ins or stay at your house, whatever is needed to make sure your pet is safe and loved. I have two cats at my house. They are well loved and follow me everywhere. I make sure they have nutritious food and clean water always. I have helped with dogs, making sure they are safe when out walking. I make sure they are given the right amounts of food and always have water. As a pet lover, I want to give them companionship, love, and security while their "parents" are away.

“Savannah does a great job with my dog! He loves her! Highly recommend!”

“Kayla was great with watching our pups while we were gone for the weekend. They love her and she did a great job with communicating and sending pics while she was at our house. I would definitely recommend Kayla!”

About: I’ve been passionate about working with dogs since I was 11, when I began training my own dog, Oliver, in both obedience and agility at B&D Creekside. I’ve continued training and competing in agility for the past seven years. Additionally, I have experience working at See Spot Run Doggy Daycare, where I was a keyholder responsible for the care and supervision of multiple dogs throughout the day. I also have hands-on pet sitting experience, including check-ins, feeding, playtime, and overnight stays to ensure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I take pride in providing reliable, attentive, and experienced care for every dog I meet. I have plenty of availability this summer for pet care since I’m currently on break from school and only working part-time at Starbucks. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to accommodate a variety of schedules, including mornings, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize their comfort, routine, and safety. I’m experienced with all breeds and confident handling reactive dogs, thanks to my work at a doggy daycare and my own two reactive pups. I read body language closely to ensure every pet feels secure and understood.

“First and foremost, it was clear from the time of the meet & greet that Natasha really loves cats, both in things she talked about and how she reacted when they peeked out and showed their faces. That was a really important thing for us. Her communication was great from the initial contact, even confirming the meet & greet about an hour ahead of time, and that continued during our time out of town. She asked conscientious questions about things we might or might not want her to do (both with the cats and in general with the house). She included some detail in the Rover Report Card each day so we knew how the cats were doing, whether they were interacting with her, etc. And we got daily photos, even if/when they stayed in hiding. That gave us a great sense of comfort to see their faces each day---like most people, we're very attached. With other places (including a boarding facility), we haven't gotten daily pics, and it really made a world of difference that we did. We're very happy with everything and would absolutely have Natasha check on the girls when we're out of town again.”

About: I have experience in puppy obedience training and leash training, oral medication administration, experience handling dogs of all ages and sizes, especially with caring for stubborn dogs. Also I am very familiar with taking care of pups with anxiety or different fears. I am a full time student at Boston University, but have long breaks throughout my day where I could care for nearby pets in need of attention or walks, meaning lunchtime check ins or walks work particularly well with my schedule. I am happy to follow any preferences you have for pet care, including crating your dog (I have extensive experience crate training an unruly giant schnauzer puppy), leash preferences, and feeding schedules. I typically bring water bowls and extra water for my dogs on walks to keep them feeling their best and treats to keep them engaged (treat type depending on what your dog typically eats).
