House Sitting in Hocutts Crossroads

“John N did a wonderful job with our two, somewhat challenging, dogs. They got long scenic walks and lots of TLC. He had to deal with some challenging situations and his communication with us was excellent. I had never used a dog sitter in-house before and the house was totally clean. He really seems to have affinity with dogs and committed to doing the best he can to take care of them. So glad he was able to dog-sit for us.”

“Great communication, and the house was cleaner than when I left - not an easy task with two giant dogs who shed a lot! Will definitely ask Mary to stay again on the future.”

“Eleanor did a wonderful job caring for our pets while we were away. She kept us updated throughout her stay with texts and pictures. The animals were content and the house was clean when we returned home. We would love to have Eleanor back another time.”

Brittany A.

“John was a fantastic sitter! He was able to watch our dog with short notice. He made sure to stop by for a meet up before watching her. He sent so many pictures while watching her and gave us many updates, which made us feel secure with him watching our girl. Highly recommend!”

“We recently chose Alyssa to care for Lucy and our house during week-long trip, and we were absolutely thrilled with the service. She went above and beyond our expectations. Alyssa was prompt and professional, and we felt completely confident that Lucy was in good hands. She took excellent care of our sweet girl who can be prone to anxiety and stress as she has gotten older. Alyssa provided plenty of playtime, company, and snuggles- ensuring Lucy was fed and watered, and given meds as instructed. We especially appreciated the daily updates and photos, which allowed us to stay connected and see how happy and stress-free Lucy was. Upon our return, it was as though we never left! . Furthermore, Alyssa also maintained our house with care, ensuring it was secure and clean. We're very happy with the service and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring pet and house sitter. Alyssa’s dedication to animal welfare and attention to detail made our vacation worry-free.”

“This is our second time using Julia and she is without a doubt the best ever. Can’t wait to travel again knowing that Kimber is so well taken care of.”

“Emily did an amazing job taking care of my dog Moose while I was away. She stayed at my home for several days and followed every request to the tee, including walking him 6 times a day. She went above and beyond by playing with him regularly and even bringing along her sweet dog Fletcher who quickly became Moose’s new best friend. She was careful to monitor Moose’s breathing during walks and playtime to make sure he didn’t overexert himself, since he was still recovering from the final heartworm injections he received a month ago and required a gradual increase in exercise, per the vet’s instructions. The daily updates and photos were such a relief and showed how happy and well cared for Moose was. Emily was incredibly professional, friendly, and patient throughout it all. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend her!”

About: I have been working in boarding facilities for over 3 years and I have been pet sitting for about 2 years. I absolutely love pets and enjoy spending time with them. I have experience in administering medication, dog training, walks and house sitting. I work at a boarding facility where I am with many pets daily in a daycare setting or just providing basic care as far as walking them, feeding and medicating them, keeping log of how they are potting and of course giving them lots of snuggles. I am soon going back to school and looking for a way to continue to do something I enjoy while being in school. When I visit your pets in your home my main goal is to provide the same amount of care and be very attentive as if they were my pet. I ensure the pets remain comfortable and abide by house rules (maybe not allowed to be on furniture or not allowed in certain rooms) while giving them lots of love and snuggles.

“Michelle cared for my 2 fur babies (Shih Tzus) for a week. She kept in constant contact via text, pictures and went out of her way to allow me and them to feel comfortable. My home was just as I left it, sparkling clean. I would definitely request her again!!!”

“Chrisztina was amazing with my pet furry boys. She sent me videos and pictures every day. She understood that Oscar has never being boarded or left our sides since he was two months old. Charlie was adjusted fine. Oscar likes to follow us around the house or he is in his home. I believe he knew that we left him as he followed Chrisztina everywhere too. I love Chrisztina for her get go personality. She really does care care about animals. Also, she’s very reasonable, too reasonable. She should increase her fee.”

“I was very impressed with Janine and how she took care of our animals. Two huge dogs and a cat, she even went above and beyond to solve an unforeseen problem. I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing pet sitting and I would definitely use her again.”

“Akira is AMAZING! My rescue pup is very nervous/traumatized, but she absolutely loved Akira. She treated my pup like her own and took excellent care of my home and plants for two weeks. I was nervous leaving things in someone else's hands for so long, but Akira nailed it. Akira was a fantastic communicator and sent lots of cute pics and videos! She was also adaptable to the extreme heat, and I really appreciate her attention to my dog's comfort. She went above and beyond, and she'll absolutely be my go-to person for caring for my pup in the future. It felt amazing to come back to a safe pup, healthy plants, and clean home. Thank you again, Akira!”

About: Whether you have a dog, a cat or both I will be there for your fur-baby and their needs! For those with special needs I am very attentive. Should they just need to rest, I will be there too. I'm currently working a few hours in the early morning so I'll have plenty of time to walk, play or care for your special pet! I'm available for boarding on weekends starting Thursday night and ending Sunday night. I do not have other animals or children in my home, only an occasional g-child, so I can accommodate a pet with high needs. I also have room to crate a dog if needed.

About: I’ve owned and cared for animals for the past 19 years. I have most experience with small breed dogs. I’ve worked for a similar service and kept dogs, cats and bunnies in my home before. Each animal that I care for is like my own pet. We keep them secure in a fenced yard for dogs (other pets we can provide a quiet space for when needed). We have space inside and have set up a rabbit fencing area with cage. Your pets will be safe and happy while they board with us! I am currently a home school mom with 3 children ages 4-9. My oldest child helps care for pets as well with playing, feeding and walking pets. We can care for pets Monday thru Saturday if needed. We have a female puppy who is active and ready to play with your furbaby. We can also crate and provide a quiet space for your fur kid as well. You do not need to provide a crate unless you have multiple pets and want them to be separated. Visiting clients home will include a lot of love and care with treats (if allowed in their diet). My 8 year old daughter loves to help walk dogs and play with animals of all kinds.

“Jada was great with the pups. She stayed with them the entire time. They were definitely spoiled when I returned.”

About: I am a work from home mom who loves pet sitting. I started this journey a few years ago, and has had the privilege of hosting several dogs of all ages, personalities and sizes. My children absolutely love animals, especially dogs, so there will be lots of cuddles and love from us. I take dog sitting very seriously, so I am very careful, and I always aim to please my pet parents, so I am always sending pictures, videos, and making sure your baby is happy and well taken care of. I am big on staying fit and healthy, so I take daily walks to get my steps in. I am very accommodating, so nothing is ever too much for me. I’ve had pet parents ask me to scramble eggs for their fur babies and put it on top of their dog food, and I’ve also had pet parents tell me to only feed their fur baby with a spoon, so please don’t hesitate to ask for any special request, because I aim to please! I work from home during the week and I have lots of down-time allowing me to interact and play with your fur baby . I am off during weekends and holidays I have a big house with an unfenced yard, and a loving family that will play and love on your fur baby. We will take daily walks, play outdoors, and have lots of play time and cuddles.

About: Having cared for my own dog for one year, I deliver trustworthy walks, engaging playtime, feeding, and affectionate companionship to keep pets happy and loved. Pet care adds joy and variety to my days, offering a break from routine while I provide walks, feeding, play, and loving attention to fury friends. Whether caring for pets at my home or the client’s, I follow their individual feeding and exercise schedules closely. I provide plenty of affectionate playtime, monitor their health and safety, maintain a clean and comfortable environment, and give each pet personalized attention to ensure they feel loved and stress-free.
