House Sitting Holdcroft

“Another excellent experience with Christina! The fact that we chose Christina again speaks volumes about the confidence we have in her care. Having a pet sitter who is dependable and genuinely cares for your pet is priceless. Prada was happy and comfortable, and I appreciated the updates while we were away. We will definitely continue booking with her. ❤️🐾🐾”

About: I love all animals, and am very patient and energetic and would love to help you with your fur babies when you can't be there for them! I currently work full time weekdays but am available evenings and weekends! Can be a available for weekend house sitting as well. And possibly some morning drop in visits. I can walk your pooches and play with them and would love to help kittu watch as well! Looking to do this with my 12 year old daughter to teach her some responsibility!

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have had dogs and cats as long as I can remember. I grew up helping my mom care for other people’s pets in their homes, so taking care of animals has always been a big part of my life! I’m currently a proud dog mom to one pup and a cat mom to two littermate kitties. I’m also a mom of three boys, so I’m VERY accustomed to energy and chaos. I’m also very comfortable cleaning up pet messes, I simply ask that you provide your preferred products and supplies for your home and pets. :) I’m experienced with administering medications and love learning all the little details about your pet — their routines, quirks, favorite treats, fears, and what makes their tail wag. My goal is always to earn their trust and make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. With my flexible schedule, I have more than enough time to devote to your fur babies and I'm happy to send plenty of photo updates at your request! I like to know everything I can from your preferences to theirs and I do ask plenty of questions as to give your pets as much normalcy and consistency as possible and to give you peace of mind that everything is well taken care of. I’ll care for your pets the way I’d want someone to care for mine. 🐾🩷 I am currently a stay at home mom with all my children now in school so I have more than enough time to devote to caring and spending time with your pets. I can walk or drop in more locally to me but am willing to travel further from home for overnight stays depending on the circumstances and with enough notice. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m happy to follow whatever house rules and routines you have in place, both for your pets and for myself. I know every home and pet has their own routines and preferences, and I want to keep things as familiar and comfortable as possible while you’re away.

“First time house sitting for our Bernedoodle and she was well handled by Joey. He took well care of her as usual, played, walked her and gave her medicine. 👍”

“Briar did an excellent job bonding with my shy spaniel Lita, and what’s more, she managed to help Lita feel safe and entertained with outings and car rides. I’ll certainly rely on her services the next time I have to go out of town.”

“Isaiah did a wonderful job babysitting our dogs and house! We came back and the dogs were not anxious at all and the house was clean. They were well taken care of and he sent many photos. Definitely will use again!”

“Meaghan was awesome to work with. She took excellent care of my dog while I was away, from taking him to new trails to bathing him, she even bought him some treats when I didn’t have any. She kept me updated throughout each day with pictures and letting me know what they did and how he was doing. Highly recommended!”

“Michael exceeded my expectations in taking care of my two dogs. Prior to my trip, he came to visit my pups in order to get to know them, observe their behavior, talk about my daily routine, and any special needs. This interaction surely made me feel so much more comfortable in the fact that I could go away and not have to worry about my dogs while being away. I certainly looked forward to his many daily pics and information that he provided to me. In future trips, I will only request Michael because I never had to worry or be concerned about anything. He is definitely a KEEPER and highly recommend him to my family and friends.”

“Arianna was the perfect house/dog sitter! She came over earlier in the week to meet Stella, who loved her immediately. Arianna took such good care of Stella, giving her lots of affection and having a great time with her. She took really great photos of her, too. She left us the sweetest card and little dog toy for Stella when she left; such a nice touch! We are having her sit for Stella again soon!?”

Heather F.

“This was our first time using Rover and Anna was great! You can tell she cares about animals. My fur kiddos loved her!”

“Meggen was the perfect pet sitter for our dog and cat when we were on vacation. We got frequent photos and updates and came home to very chill pets. It's obvious that she loves pets and will treat them as her own. We are so happy to have found someone so responsible and trustworthy.”

About: Hi! I’m Jake, a second-year law student at William & Mary Law School and an avid animal lover. I grew up in a home that always had at least three dogs, along with cats, so caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Being around pets has always brought me so much joy, and I truly miss having them around every day. Since my roommates aren’t looking to have pets right now, Rover is the perfect way for me to spend time with amazing dogs and cats while helping owners feel confident that their pets are in great hands. As a law student, responsibility, reliability, and attention to detail are part of my daily life. I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own—whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I keep a structured schedule that makes it easy to plan pet care into my day. I enjoy taking breaks from studying to get outside for walks, exercise, and fresh air, so dog walks fit naturally into my routine. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a long walk, or spending time playing with your pet, I’m happy to provide them with the attention and care they deserve. I also have flexibility during mornings, evenings, and weekends, allowing me to accommodate a variety of schedules. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and spending time with pets is one of my favorite ways to unwind from school while giving them plenty of love, exercise, and companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and stick to their normal routine. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), exercise, and any specific preferences or routines your pet is used to. I make sure every visit includes plenty of attention, playtime, affection, and exercise based on your pet’s personality and energy level. Whether your dog loves long walks or your cat prefers quiet companionship, I’ll tailor my care to their individual needs. I also treat every home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. Communication is important to me, so I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I offer personalized, one-on-one care tailored to your dog’s unique needs, personality, and routine. With a focus on reliability and attentiveness, I make your dog’s comfort and daily schedule a priority. I strive to be a calm, loving presence your dog can trust, helping them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. As a full-time teacher, my weekdays follow a consistent and predictable schedule. I am available for afternoon visits after school, evening care, as well as overnight stays when needed. On weekends, holidays, and school breaks, I have more flexibility and can provide extended care, additional visits, or longer stays. This structure allows me to offer reliable, attentive pet care while maintaining clear communication and consistency for your pet. I care for pets with a focus on comfort, routine, and individual needs, whether in my home or in my client’s home. I follow each pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication, and I take time to learn their preferences and personality. In a client’s home, I respect their space while providing attentive, one-on-one care and keeping pets in a familiar environment. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and calm interactions, and I communicate regularly with updates so owners can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and genuinely love caring for them. To me, every dog deserves patience, kindness, and plenty of attention. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with good company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, so I’ll follow your care instructions carefully—from feeding schedules and medications to favorite toys and walking habits. My goal is to treat your dog like a member of my own family, giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, reliable hands. Please note, we board on family at a time, we do not cage the dogs. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work from home, and my wife is home full-time. This means your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day rather than being left alone for long periods. We have a clean, safe, and pet-friendly home where dogs can feel comfortable and relaxed. Whether it’s regular walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing affection and companionship, we’re committed to making every pet feel like part of the family while they’re in our care. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications, and any special needs or preferences. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and regular potty breaks while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. In my home, pets stay in a clean, safe, and comfortable environment where they are supervised throughout the day. Since I work from home and my wife is home full-time, your pet will have lots of companionship and won’t be left alone for extended periods. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s home. I provide reliable, attentive care, keep the space tidy, and send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I’m an experienced pet owner and animal lover who has cared for a wide variety of animals, including cats, kittens, senior cats, ferrets, and dogs of different breeds and sizes. This experience helps me quickly recognize each pet’s unique personality, comfort level, and care needs. I can provide attentive and dependable support while you’re away. I’m also comfortable caring for both friendly and reactive dogs. I have firsthand experience caring for puppies. I understand the extra patience, consistency, supervision, and positive reinforcement they require. I’ve had my husky since she was a puppy, giving me experience with every stage of her development. This has helped me understand how a dog’s needs change from puppyhood through adulthood. I can provide thoughtful, age-appropriate care for both puppies and adult dogs. I currently care for a husky, a boa constrictor, and a Green Bottle Blue tarantula. My experience with exotic pets has made me comfortable following specialized care instructions. I’m also experienced with maintaining precise routines and paying close attention to details that are important for an animal’s health and well-being. Pet care is currently my part-time work. My primary profession involves working with children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This work has strengthened my patience, communication skills, attention to detail, and ability to follow individualized routines. These skills directly benefit my clients by helping me provide calm, consistent, and personalized care for each pet. I understand the importance of clear communication with owners. I will keep you informed about how your pet is doing. I hope to continue building on these skills as I work with, train, rehabilitate, and study animals. My future goals include working primarily with dogs, exotic animals, and aquatic animals. I understand that every animal has its own personality, boundaries, and individual needs. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and maintaining established routines. This helps pets feel secure and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m also comfortable caring for pets that are shy, high-energy, reactive, or slow to warm up to new people. I respect each animal’s boundaries and allow them to interact at their own pace. I provide gentle encouragement, patience, and reassurance. My goal is to build trust and create a positive experience for both pets and their owners. I can provide drop-in visits, feeding, walks, playtime, basic enclosure care, and companionship. I’ll care for your pets with the same attention, patience, and respect that I give my own animals. You can feel confident knowing they are in dependable and compassionate hands. My schedule is mostly remote and very flexible. I am available most days and times on both weekends and week days. I do travel sometimes for my full-time job, which would be the main reason I would not be available. I care for my pets as part of my daily routine and make sure their individual needs are met throughout the day. My husky receives regular potty breaks, walks, exercise, playtime, feeding, attention, and downtime. I’ve had her since she was a puppy, so caring for her has been a consistent part of my life for years. I also care for a boa constrictor and a Green Bottle Blue tarantula. I maintain their enclosures and monitor their temperature, humidity, feeding, water, and overall environment based on their individual needs. Their enclosures are kept secure and separate from my other pets. With any animal in my care, I pay attention to behavior and body language, provide appropriate enrichment and interaction, and make adjustments when I notice their needs have changed. I prioritize safety, consistency, cleanliness, and making sure each animal receives the level of care and attention appropriate for their species and personality.

“This is the second time Jenny has stayed at our house with our two pups and I once again, we came home to a clean house and two very happy well taken care of dogs. I love that she sends pictures and updates, it really helps an anxiety pup mom like myself to feel relaxed and enjoy myself while gone. Thank you again so much, Jenny!!!”
