Pet Sitting Hillcrest

“Elizabeth went above and beyond for my senior cat, Calvin! She took extra care to try and make him comfortable with her presence, and although he was too shy to come say hello I was greatly reassured by how thorough her visits and updates were. Great experience, would definitely book again.”

About: Thank you for stopping by my profile! Let's get to know each other. Please read through my profile and hopefully it will answer any questions you may have about my service! Animals have been a part of my life since childhood, from our show dog who was an Irish Wolfhound to being a rescue mom to smaller terriers. I have cared for horses, chickens, bunnies which includes pets with special handicaps. With deep empathy and natural connection, I understand animals on an intuitive level. I have trained puppies, comforted seniors and welcomed countless creatures who somehow find their way to my home. Your pet will find a home away from home here with me, safe, loving-and I look forward to offering the same love I show all animals to your beloved pet. All the animals in my home live in harmony together. Some visitors marvel at that fact but it's how I treat each animal with love and care that fosters this environment. All needs are met and everyone is happy! Fun stay for your dog while you are away! Welcome! I am so happy you’re considering my home for your furry family member. I am a loving pet owner with a genuine passion for animals, and believe that when your dog stays with me, they should feel like they’re on vacation—a fun, staycation away from home! I have a senior dog called Texas who is a little sheriff around here! She likes to watch the scene as it makes her feel like part of the action. At nearly 18 years old, she is still going strong and wants to just do doggy things! By having other dogs around, it keeps her active and mentally stimulated. My home is a warm, clean and comfortable space. I offer lots of attention, affection and fun! WHY DOGS LOVE STAYING WITH ME I provide a safe home environment where dogs become part of the daily lives of my family. Your pup will enjoy plenty of companionship, attention, playtime, and opportunities to relax. Because I spend so much time at home, your dog won’t simply be dropped off and left alone for long periods. They’ll be part of the action! Every dog is different, so I take the time to get to know each guest and their unique personality, routine, and preferences. I have a lot of experience with many different breeds of dogs. We like to think of our dogs as perfect but they all have that little things they do! I know their quirks (I see you counter surfers!) and emotional needs (I see you doodles!) It is very helpful to know all about your pet before they arrive here for their stay. Whether your pup is energetic and playful, loves long walks, enjoys making new friends, or would rather curl up for a cozy nap. Also, if they eat tissues, or garbage dip or counter surf? We can accommodate all different personalities with proper notice. Not everyone is perfect! I will do my best to make them feel comfortable and happy. We can also discuss at quick 15 minute meet and greet which is required for any boardings with me. For first time guests on longer stays over 7 days, an overnight experience is required. (Exceptions can made for out of town guests or emergencies!) A TYPICAL DAY A stay with me includes plenty of opportunities for: * Outdoor potty breaks and fresh air * Playtime and enrichment * Walks and exercise * Relaxation and cozy nap time * One-on-one attention * Plenty of cuddles and affection * Supervised social time with other compatible dogs Drop-offs can be a range of emotions for your dog- from excited, to curious to overwhelm as they enter a new situation. I have guided even the most frightened dog to love coming to my home! I love seeing each dog’s personality shine as they get to know and trust me! I TREAT EVERY DOG LIKE FAMILY I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I will reassure you that your pup is having a good time with communication that includes updates and photos/videos. I love sending updates and photos so you can see your dog enjoying their stay. You can relax knowing your furry family member is receiving lots of love and attention while you’re away. My goal is simple: I want your dog to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and excited to come back! WHAT TO BRING To help your dog enjoy a comfortable stay, please bring: * Regular food including favorite snack * Special bed * Any necessary medications * A leash, collar, or harness * Any important instructions regarding their routine I have plenty of bowls, blankets, and doggy bags, so there’s no need to overpack! Bring as little or as much as your pup needs. Whether you’re traveling, heading out for the day, having a dinner party or simply need someone trustworthy to care for your best friend, I would love to welcome them into my home. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! While I am during the day and available to provide attentive care for your pet. I may step out briefly for errands or other chores but will ensure your pet's needs are fully met. Our home is on one acre with a fenced in yard and great area for walking with lots of trees in a peaceful setting. I have a senior dog (17+ yo) that loves company. We also have cats which are friendly and curious.

About: I have experience caring for dogs through regularly dog sitting for my friends and their pets. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, giving lots of attention, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I genuinely love spending time with animals and treat every pet I care for like my own! I am currently working full time but I have weekends off, and sometimes a day or two during the week so weekends are best but feel free to reach out about weekday availability! I have a fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time and play. I also have a cat at home, so I’m comfortable caring for pets and making sure everyone has a safe, calm, and comfortable environment. I always follow each pet’s individual routine and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and love.

“Christine was amazing! We have a very nervous pup and Christine worked with us to make sure our dog was comfortable with her before we went away - it much appreciated.”

About: I’ve pet sat for neighbors’ dogs of all ages since high school, and I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and cleaning up waste. I’m also very routine-focused—I stick closely to your dog’s schedule so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I grew up with a mutt who recently passed, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy, lovin, and caring for your dog. I’ll treat your pup like my own and provide daily updates with photos, plus quick notes on meals and how their day went. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I work Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons into early evenings, and Sunday mornings into early afternoon. Outside of those hours, I’m available for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and extended visits. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide consistent care, along with daily updates and photos so you feel confident while you’re away. 🐾📸 When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walking routines, and any household rules you have in place. I make sure your pet always has fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention and comfort. For dogs, I’m careful with leash safety, door safety, and picking up waste on every walk. For cats, I keep litter boxes clean, make sure doors and windows stay secure, and respect their comfort level—whether they want playtime or quiet companionship.

“Jenna did a great job taking care of my cat Kiki while my partner and I were away for the holidays. I received a couple of cute photos each day, and came home to a happy cat!”

“Eric was very communicative and made sure to share photos and play with my cats while I was gone. Gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing he was stopping by at the times I requested to give them attention, especially since it was a bit out of his way.”

“Brigid is wonderful! She keeps me posted when she checks in and gives me picture updated of Luna! It makes me feel assured that my girl is getting love and care while I am at work. Thank you Brigid!”

About: I've cared for pets since I was 16 years old. I helped my family, friends, and neighbors when they needed someone to take care of their pet(s). I've cared for a ton of pets ranging from fish, hermit crabs, birds, bunnies, gerbils, hamsters, cats, to dogs. I love dogs so much I created a dog blog on the side as a hobby. I am currently writing remotely from home for work with a flexible schedule with time to also take care of your pet during most of the hours. I am easily able to take care of my own dog with ease. I have a little teddybear dog of my own, and completely understand the love and care pets receive from their owners. I get that it is your baby you do not need to worry. I will respect, honor, and care for your pet just as you would.

“Tatiana was wonderful with my cats and would definitely get her to sit them again. She's very diligent, thorough, and reliable. She goes beyond what is expected of her. Always sent very good pictures, videos, and summary of her time spent with my kitties.”

Ankit R.

“I have used April once, but intend to use her again soon. She is responsive and thorough whenever I contact her. She sent an adorable photo of my dog from her drop-in visit. I feel overall that I can trust that she will be there when she needs to be and do what I have asked of her.”

About: I have always loved animals and helping others. I’ve cared for many different pets over the years while working as a nanny. I even volunteered at a veterinarians office where I would help care for sick or abandoned pets. I am in college, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pet. My schedule is extremely flexible so I’m available most days/times. I am there to ensure your pet stays safe and happy, so I will always ask for your pet’s individual preferences that way I can support them in the best way possible.

“Melaina made our international trip away from our two girl cats so worry-free. She was so responsive to every message and went above and beyond, taking her own initiative to clean the litter box and throw away trash as if it was her own house and her own pets. Our cats were nice and comfy under her care. Book her!”

About: I have loved and cared for dogs my whole life. I am starting my journey to become a trainer. I would love the opportunity to care for your amazing best friend(s). Dogs are amazing loving creatures and not one is the same! I have two rescue dogs of my own. One is Miss (Queen) Kona an Australian Cattle dog mix who my family agrees is just about perfect. She is the reason we adopted Buddy, he is a special needs dog with anxiety and a multitude of issues we have been working through. He has a very sweet side to him that always gives us hope and makes us love him more. I would love the opportunity to help you with your dog sitting needs. Contact me and we can talk! I am currently off for the summer since I work in a school. I can spend time caring for and playing with fur babies. I can visit up to 4 times a day or have them stay at my house. I am available full-time from August 15th to August 29th. After the 29th, I will be available weekends only, Friday evening to Sunday evening. I have a fenced-in yard for exercise and fun. I no longer have dogs at home, so your pet will be the center of my attention! When I visit, I will make sure the water bowl is full and clean. I will feed at the proper times and clean up any messes. The rest of the time it will be spend time having fun with your pet.

About: In addition to having my own family dog, I grew up taking care of other family & neighbors’ pets. This included regular walks, feeding, and overnight care. I’ve now been doing Rover for the last 6 years, taking care of dozens of dogs and cats, most of which return for recurring care — from drops ins to daycare and week+ long overnight stays. I work from home full time, so I can spend time with and be available for pets throughout the entire day. I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to stay with pets all day or drop in as needed. I’m a very attentive pet lover - always playing with/petting them. Odds are I’ll pay more attention to them than my job during work hours.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was very young, I’ve always had a huge love for all animals and I’ll treat your fur babies like their mine! I’m your go-to weekend pet sitter! I currently work a full-time 9–5 job during the week, which allows me to dedicate my weekends to providing attentive and reliable pet care. I’m available on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays and some Mondays so feel free to ask me and I enjoy spending my free time making sure pets feel happy, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I prefer caring for pets in their own homes, where they can maintain their normal routines and feel most at ease. I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own familiar environment, which is why I prefer providing care in my clients’ homes. I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. I always make sure to follow their regular feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special instructions provided by their owners. Safety and cleanliness are very important to me, and I make it a priority to respect both your home and your pet’s individual needs. I also believe communication is key, so I’m happy to provide regular updates and pictures to give you peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I've been a dog owner for 20 wonderful years, dogs are my passion! They love me and I love them, from puppies to seniors, toys to giants. I am lucky have a fenced in, wooded, private, 2 acre property with plenty of room for zoomies. Boarding dogs is my main gig, so I stay home with them all day and night. They are never unsupervised, inside or outside my property. I live in a safe, wooded, quiet, 2 acre, fenced-in lot. There are lots of dogs on my block who love to socialize and have play dates if that's what your dog is into. I'm at the end of a dirt road, nowhere near any traffic, so it is very safe and private.

About: I have a genuine love for animals with over 25 years experience in personally caring for Dogs, Cats, Small Animals, Reptiles and so much more. I am available full time to care for all types of pets, I am looking to turn my endless love for animals into a career. I pay attention to detail with each individual pets needs, I am able to administer medication if needed and accommodate any other special needs or requests the pet owners may have.
