House Sitting in Hilt

“If I could give Jordan 6 stars I would- he took excellent in home care of our cats, guinea pigs, and grumpy cockatiel, including letting us know when one cat was sick and needed vet care, was able to transport to the vet and coordinate communication with the vet and me, and provide follow up meds at home. Awesome job Jordan, we can't wait to have you back again!”

“Kristen cared for my for and my 2 cats (one with separation anxiety issues) for 6 days. She was pretty darn nice about the cat problems and sent photos and updates regularly. She’s an absolute delight and I will call on her help again. I’ve already recommended her to several of my friends.”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life — and honestly, my favorite part. Whether it’s at a party or just out and about, you’ll usually find me hanging out with the cats and dogs! I’ve had the joy of working with animals in many different settings over the years. I spent 7 years volunteering with a wildlife rescue organization, gaining hands-on experience caring for animals with a wide range of needs. I currently volunteer at Friends of the Animals Shelter, where I help care for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. From energetic puppies to wise senior dogs, cuddly lap cats to independent and finicky felines — I’ve cared for them all. I know that every pet is unique, and I take the time to understand their preferences, quirks, and routines to ensure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away. My schedule is designed with your pet’s needs in mind! Outside of a few early morning hours at the bakery and a couple of flexible shifts volunteering at the shelter each week, my schedule is open to help keep you pet on their scheduled routine. Whether it’s a quick drop-in to burn off some afternoon wiggles or providing a calm, loving presence for a senior companion, I’m happy to accommodate whatever care your pet needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! Whether it’s a fun-filled walk, a play session to burn off some energy, or providing full in-house care, I make sure your furry friend feels right at home and totally pampered. If it's just a walk or playtime, you can count on me to keep things exciting and safe! I’ll tailor each outing to your pet’s vibe—whether they're a high-energy explorer who loves to run or a more relaxed companion who enjoys a leisurely stroll. Either way, we’ll make sure they get the exercise and attention they deserve. For in-home care, I’m all about keeping things comfortable and familiar. I follow your pet’s routine to make them feel right at ease while you're away. Whether it’s feeding time, administering meds, or just giving them a cuddle session, I treat your home and your pet with the care they deserve. I’m all about making sure your pet gets the love and attention they need — whether that’s zoomies in the yard or just a cozy cuddle session on the couch. You can relax knowing they’ll have a blast, feel safe, and be spoiled rotten while you’re away!

“Cherie did a fine job with my two small dogs. She exercised them in the house and took short walks twice a day. I was delighted she accepted the job, since cats are her focus. I would happily use her services again. She was kind to my pups and to me!”

“Jessica was great watching our dog and cat and house for a long weekend. She was very flexible with our needs. We will definitely book her again!”

“Sarah was wonderful! Our dog, Sadie was so calm and well-cared for when we returned home. Sarah was very good about texting updates and sending pics. I will definitely contact Sarah next time we need someone to care for Sadie.”

“Blane was great! Was able to help me in a pinch and watch my pets on short notice. She’s great at communicating, providing updates and paying attention to details. I felt like my pets were in great hands. Highly recommend!!”

Andy M.

“Anna was responsible, warm and has a great energy about her. The animals liked her right away. She communicated well and sent pics often. The dog and 2 cats were happy and well taken care of. It was a hot weekend and she watered my garden. My dog seemed to be looking for her at the gate when we went out after I got home. We trouble shooted some challenges and she responded quickly and dealt with them. I would have her sit again in a minute.”

Jeanne R.

“Brooklyn was very accommodating with our last minute trip! She took great care of our fur babies and our home. We had tons of pictures and videos of our pups. I highly recommend her!”

Julia K.

“What an AMAZING pet sitter. We had something come up and she was able to meet us and our cat right away! She took such good care of our fur baby while we were gone and she sent updates and pictures and asked questions. I would trust her in my house any time to watch my animals! Thank you again, Toshyauna! You’re a life saver!”

Sara R.

“We’ve used Jake on two separate occasions and I cannot say enough good things about him. On first meeting him you can tell that not only does he love dogs, but he knows what he’s doing when it comes to animals. He’s super friendly and professional and flexible. We used him first when we went on vacation after adopting our puppy only a month ago, I was initially super nervous about leaving our dog but meeting Jake put me at east instantly. While we were gone, he kept us updated of what was happening with our puppy Chupa and cat Nila. He genuinely cares about our animals and our peace of mind. He’s officially our first choice for all future pet care needs.”

About: My whole life I have been caring for dogs. They truly make life worth living! My entire life revolves around whether or not my dog can come with me. I make time everyday to take her on a walk in nature. I am diligent about training and good manners and making sure she is socialized with people and animals everyday. I work Mon-Thursday 8:00am-10:30am from home and at my private art in Ashland. My dog comes with me everywhere (unless it's too hot). We go for a hike or to the lake everyday! Lots of potty breaks and outside time between hanging out in the studio or at home. I have a large fenced in yard where the dogs have free range. I am extremely connected with dogs and am very intuitive and attentive to their needs, habits, fears, desires, etc. I am patient and kind with them and have so much love for them. I can be harsh and strict if that's what they need but also very gentle and understanding. I have good follow through with instruction and know what it takes to establish good habits.

“Camille was really flexible and willing to roll with things as the timing for my trip changed a bit. She provided updates and photos and she had some great play sessions with my cats! Will definitely be having her back!”

Rebecca H.

“Athena s the ultimate cat care giver! She is conscientious about sharing updates regarding how our cats have been doing in our absence. She is very supportive and easy to work with and has a relaxing presence which was a superb match for our cats. We could not have asked for more and will not hesitate to request her services again!”

About: I went to school for veterinary technician and worked in a veterinary clinic for 6 years. I have many frequent flyer dogs that I take care of periodically, and have been pet sitting for about 7 years. I truly love every animal and will make sure your pet gets the best care. I work full time (typically 7 hours daily) but wake up early to take care of the animals before I leave. When I get off, I come back to take care and play with your fur babies I do not provide any pet sitting at my house because of my own animals. I take care of each pet the same way by giving them lots of love and attention. I try to keep them on their owners schedule and I do not give them anything their owner wouldn’t.

About: Patience, tenderness, playfulness if needed, reading the emotional states of animals, taking the time to understand each pet and their unique needs, fun, calm, caring I recently wound down a business and am taking a break from working in leadership roles in the tech world—I am excited to help you care for your pets as if they were my own. I think coming from a place of love and care is the biggest priority when working with animals. This often means meeting them where they are and being attuned to what they need.

About: I've had animals my whole life. We had the best Irish Setter when I was a girl. She was so smart! I've had labs, and a little Manchester Terrier named Sarrie. Sarrie had several medical issues so I am familiar with special diets and medication. I am able to work from home so house sitting is a feasible option. I live alone so have flexibility in my schedule to meet your needs. Although I can't offer overnight at my place, I am able to stay with your fur baby. When my little Sarrie was alive, I always paid the extra for someone to stay with her to ease her anxiety of being alone so I get it. I understand special diets and am able to provide the care your love one needs.

About: I’ve taken care of many animals in my life. I have dogs myself but I also dog sit for neighbors. I have lots of experience with dog walking and house sitting. I’m currently working part time but my job is very flexible. I have plenty of time to take care of and walk your pups! I am also very flexible and will try to accommodate your needs as best as possible. I have a nice apartment with many cameras and pet relief areas. I also live near many parks and fenced in dog areas. Your pup would also have a companion most of the time.
