Pet Sitting in Holtwood

About: I've taken care of pets for as long as I can remember, from farm animals to rodents, cats and dogs, reptiles & fish and even a deer! I've taken care of senior pets and very young pets! Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine because I work part time - a couple hours here and there. Other then that I'm home with my 10 month old baby boy who is excited to meet your pets! I do have my front yard fenced in but it is not the whole yard. I have a big back yard with a field behind! I can crate your dog if needed or just let them hang out with me while they’re here!

About: I have been an animal lover and had dogs my whole life. My first job was working at a boarding kennel at 14 years old. I have worked with many different breeds. I am experienced with boarding pets in my home, pet bathing experience/groomer in training, nail trimming, ability to give oral medications, insulin injections (I have had two diabetic dogs), walking dogs of any breed or size. At this time I am very flexible. My life revolves around animals. I can commit to your schedule to suit you and your pets needs. I have a fenced in back yard and live away from high traffic for safe walks, I have dogs of my own for your pup to have friends to play with. I can keep my dogs separate from yours if needed. Patient, and quiet loving home with pet's needs as my top priority. Can take them for car rides or snuggle up on the couch and watch a movie. I can pick your pet up and drop them off if needed.

“Kat is Amazing. This was her first visit with our dog Fergus and je had a great time. She arrived at our agreed time and took wonderful care of our boy. We will definitely be using Kat again to care for our boy.”

“Elizabeth was extremely caring and responsible for our two cats during a month long trip during the winter (including bad weather). We would definitely recommend her for providing care for any fur family members.”

“Amber is so wonderful with our Chesapeake bay retriever who can be stubborn at times but he absolutely loves her. She always sends a picture and an update of how he did on the check in. She has been so helpful and puts our mind at ease that we know he’s being taken care of so well 😊”

About: I've worked with newborn kittens to geriatric dogs and have loved every minute. Initially, I watched my friend's animals when they went away. Referrals had me working around the whole neighborhood. When I moved, I wanted to recreate the network of animals and people I loved, but had other responsibilities to prioritize. Now, I have the availability to pursue pet sitting again. My schedule is flexible, and I can be available any morning, afternoon, or evening to fit your needs. I'd be happy to stop by or video chat before you leave to coordinated introductions. I care for pets in their own home. I cannot board animals. I'm careful to keep the key on its own key ring so it doesn't get mixed with my personal keys. I'm happy to use cleaning tools/solutions that are available in the home so as not to agitate any sensitivities if mess cleanup is needed.

“Colleen took wonderful care of my cranky cat and aggressive angelfish over the weekend. I felt much better leaving them in her hands rather than leaving them alone for the weekend. Thank you Colleen for the care you gave them.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting on and off for the last twenty years. I have two dogs with disabilities, a deaf cattle dog and an anxious sharpei-boxer with GI issues. I understand dogs and connect easily with many kinds of animals. I’m comfortable giving medications and working with reactive/anxious animals. My work is remote, freelance, and very part-time. My schedule is very relaxed and open. I prefer to spend time with my pets or others’ pets. When I enter a clients home I’m there for the animals. I’m mindful and respectful of their property and space. If I’m there for a walk, I’ll get the pup harnessed up and ready to go as soon as possible, according to the needs of the dog. If I’m there for a drop-in I’ll make sure I do what I’m there to do.

“Alexandra did an amazing job checking in on our two dogs! They have very different needs and personalities and Alexandra cared for them wonderfully. Appreciate the communication as well!”

Amanda K.

“Trisha was amazing. Went above and beyond. Loved her enthusiasm and all of the photos. I know our pup was well cared for”

Janet K.

“We hope that Danielle can continue to help us out with our dog. She was very responsive to our inquiries and made our first time using Rover a breeze. She took great care of our dog and we felt at ease going away for the weekend knowing Danielle was watching our pup!!”

“Aria was on time and communicated quickly and efficiently for both the meet & greet and her first drop in visit with my 7mo puppy. She provided a detailed update at the end of visit and included some of my new favorite photos of my dog! She’s easy to coordinate with and I’ll definitely be booking recurring visits :)”

About: I've grown up with pets, and have helped family and friends dog sitting over the years. HUGE dog lover here! People have relied on me to walk, tend to and keep their pets over the years. I work part time, so I have plenty of time to care for your pet! Most days I'm available for a few hrs during the day. I will happily tend to your needs/dog needs as requested. No care in our home, I would be coming to your home to tend to your pet/walk.

About: I currently work at a pet store, meaning I work with all types of animals, but dogs being the most common one. I am the perfect fit for your fur babies. I am still a high school student, but I work for a pet store meaning I care for pets while at work and at home! I will be very slow and careful when first meeting your pets. When going outside I will make sure they are leashed and or harnessed.

“Jade was amazing while my husband and I were away. She was very flexible with some of our scheduling issues and her communication was outstanding. There was a bad storm that came through and she was still able to check on our little ones with the power being out. Very thankful for her while we were away.”

About: Hello! My name is Victoria and I am currently working at a local animal hospital. I have grown up around animals, and always had pets as my sidekicks! My love for animals has grown over the years leading me to attending Wilson College for veterinary medicine and now working in the field. With the experiences from college and previous pet care jobs, I am sure your pet will be in great care! I am able to provide any extra care needed; ex: dietary changes, injections, medication administration, etc. Willing to make your companion feel right at home and get the best care. Oh, and pet parents will always get updates on their babies! Currently working 10hr days Monday-Thursday. Off Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Weekends would be mostly ideal. Could potentially work something out if needed during the week. I have a fenced in yard with two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. Availability to use full basement living area to host a pet that needs separated.

“Mason was exceptional. She allowed me to book her literally last minute and said she could visit the pups without me home (emergency work trip). She was prompt and took great care of my pups, asking me any questions she had to best care for them. She sent me plenty of pics and the pups loved her!”

About: I love animals like they are my own! I have lived with animals and had to take care of them my entire life. Grew up with cats, Chihuahuas pitbull boxers, all kinds of different breeds. I believe life is better with animals <3 I am a college student, living on campus and miss my cat and dog! What a better way to make some extra money then being able to help some pets! I would care for any animal as if it were my own. I love playing with pets, cats or dogs doesn’t matter! I am just happy to be able to help you and your loved pet be happy and well taken care of!

“Lauren was a wonderful sitter. She stepped in last minute after I had a cancellation and was so stressed about finding someone. She took great care of my 3 kitties and was great with communication. I very much appreciated the picture updates and detailed notes she left for me each day. I would highly recommend her services and look forwarded to booking her in the future.”
