House Sitting Homestead Base

“We had the best experience with Mendora! We were gone for 10 days on vacation and everyday our dogs were looked after and cared for without worry. She showed up on time every time to feed, let our dogs out, and spend time with them. She kept us updated with messages and pictures of our pups daily. One of our dogs was on an antibiotic while in Mendora’s care and she made sure our pup didn’t miss a single pill. Thank you for everything we really appreciate all you did for us and our pups. We will 100% recommend and use again!”

“Adriana was amazing. I found her at the last minute when the person I had to take care of my new rescued kitten bailed on me. Without hesitation, she was there to assist me and was very understanding about my nerves of leaving my 4 week kitten with a total stranger. She messaged me about my kitten and sent pictures so that I could be at ease. I unfortunately had to extend a day and without hesitation again, she was willing and able to do Rap for me. I could tell that she truly loved my kitten and took good care of her. At the return of my kitten I even got a surprise painting of her which I thought was super sweet. I would definitely recommend Adriana and when I need another sitter for my fur baby, I will definitely rebook with her. You can definitely tell that Adriana is a person that loves animals. Thank you Adriana fur being there and easing my nerves.”

About: Hi! My name is Camila. Ever since I was a little kid I’ve been caring for animals. From saving baby ducks without a mother, rescuing a handicap kitten, to even watching wild lizards hatch from their eggs - I’ve always been in awe of animals. I gained extensive experience during my Veterinary Assistant program in high school. While interning at an Animal Hospital, I learned how to administer medications, bathe dogs, comfort them, and keep their spaces clean. I also learned the importance of reading an animal’s body language and pay attention to their needs. I have been dog sitting/house sitting since 2015. I have cared for big fluffy dogs, small dogs, senior dogs, and plenty of cats. I know that every animal is unique and has different needs. I’ll adjust to your pets lifestyle and make sure they stick to their routine. My passion is for animals, and I will treat your fur babies as if they were my own. I’m currently available everyday. I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups and give them the attention they deserve! I currently offer dog walking services, drop in visits, and house sitting in your home. ** disclaimer** House sitting service is your fur babies staying in the comfort of their home, I do not stay overnight in your home. I get there as early as 7am and tend to their personal needs. However, for safety and privacy, I sleep in my bed and make my rounds in the morning. My dog and cat are my children. They sleep with me every night and have different beds for them to sleep in downstairs and upstairs. They each have a basket of toys and my cat even has a cat tower and a cat room where she can relax. If I would sit at a clients home, I would love to chat with you so that I can follow your pets routine. I do believe animals should roam free, so while they are with me, they will be receiving loads of cuddles and play time.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is that i actually love the whole job not only the cute parts. Im patient when it comes to puppies who are still learning and are very playful, gentle with older dogs who need a slower pace, and calm when pets are anxious and shy. Im great at following the routine like giving pets meds and sensing when something is “off”. Basically I treat every pet like theyre my own with lots of love and care. Pet care fits very well into my daily and weekly routine. My schedule is very open, which allows me to provide consistent attention, walks, feeding, and companionship as needed I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved. At my home, I have a friendly cat and a fenced yard where pets can run around and play safely with supervision. I stick to their normal feeding and potty schedules, give them plenty of playtime and attention, and make sure they’re always comfortable. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely so pets feel relaxed and at home. I handle feeding, walks, playtime, and basic care as instructed.

About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and birds of all sizes and personalities! From playful pups to shy cats, I adapt to each pet’s needs with patience and love. I’m reliable, attentive, and make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and at home while their owners are away. As a University of Miami Air Force ROTC Cadet, my days start early and stay structured, which makes caring for pets a perfect fit. I’m already used to staying active and organized, so whether it’s morning walks, feeding routines, or evening check-ins, I plan pet care into my day with the same dedication I give my training. Safety and trust come first. I keep a clean, calm environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, from feeding and walking schedules to medication or special routines. My ROTC background has taught me to stay calm, organized, and attentive making every pet feel safe, happy, and loved while giving owners peace of mind.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently have two that are in my fenced backyard. I have done basic training on them and cared for puppies that my dog had so I have experience with all ages even months old puppies. I love dogs so much and while I was in my college apartment, I would dogsit with my roommate. I’m currently studying for the LSAT, so I am not working and wanted some extra money. I an available every day but I may be a bit busier on the weekends. I have a fenced yard and two very friendly dogs, but I do not have to take your dog outside with them if you do not feel comfortable. I can walk them in the front yard and around the block. I live in a very safe neighborhood and everyone in my family has experience with dogs.

About: I am a HUGE dog lover and, truly, an animal lover in general! Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs and ferrets, have had a dog and two cats of my own as an adult, and have helped care for other people’s pets. I genuinely enjoy making animals feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I’m always happy to accept kisses and snuggles, play, talk to them, and spoil them with affection. I’m just as comfortable with affectionate “Velcro” pets who want to be by my side as I am with independent ones who prefer their own space. I also understand that some animals need extra patience and time to warm up to new people, and I’m comfortable with shy, skittish, and reactive pets. I believe in respecting each animal’s personality, boundaries, and individual needs. Whether your pet loves walks and playtime, lounging and cuddling, or simply needs a calm, patient presence, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I’m also glad to accommodate requests such as dog park visits when appropriate and agreed upon. My goal is to make your pets feel comfortable and cared for while giving you peace of mind that they’re in loving, attentive, and responsible hands. Your pets aren’t just animals to me; they’re family, and I’ll treat them with the same love, patience, and care I’d want someone to give my own.

About: We are Carlos and Liliana, a married couple with a lifelong connection to pets. We both grew up on family farms, surrounded by dogs, cats, horses and other animals, so caring for them has always been a natural part of our lives. Our beloved dog, Chispita, was part of our family for 14 years, giving us experience caring for a dog throughout the different stages of her life. We have also regularly cared for our children’s cats in New York and New Orleans, including administering daily medication when needed. More recently, through house and pet sitting, we have cared for dogs and cats with different personalities, ages and routines, including a household with two Huskies and four cats for three weeks. We understand that every pet is different and take the time to follow their established feeding, walking, medication and companionship routines carefully. We are both architects and university professors, responsible, organized and attentive to detail. When caring for pets in their own home, we also treat the home with the same care and respect we give our own. We are currently in a flexible stage of our professional lives, which gives us plenty of time to dedicate to the pets in our care. Since we are a couple, we can coordinate our schedules so pets receive plenty of companionship and are rarely left alone for long periods. We carefully follow each pet’s established routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and, of course, plenty of attention and affection. When caring for pets in their own home, our priority is to maintain the environment and routine they already know. We carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication, doors, gates, and any special needs. We are attentive to changes in behavior and keep owners informed while they are away. As experienced HomeExchange, Airbnb, and TrustedHousesitters users, we are also very respectful of our clients’ homes, privacy, and belongings.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me.

I start the mornings with potty breaks and breakfast, then go for a nice midday walk around 1–3pm. In the evenings, I set aside time for play and dinner around 6pm. I have flexibility throughout the day to take dogs on walks, to the park, or just enjoy some cuddle time at home. 🐾 I live in a house with a big backyard where dogs can safely play and get fresh air while I supervise.

About: Animals have always been a very important part of my life. I have cared for dogs and cats throughout my entire life and have a genuine love for all pets. While growing up in Peru, I rescued numerous abandoned dogs and cats, helping them recover by providing care, food, and lots of affection until they regained their health. These experiences taught me the importance of patience, dedication, and paying close attention to the individual needs of each animal. Since moving to the United States, I have cared for two dogs and one cat, providing them with a life filled with love, comfort, and attention. My most recent dog had a disability and required daily medication, a special diet, and additional care. Through this experience, I learned the importance of maintaining routines, administering medications properly, and being attentive to any special needs a pet may have. I strive to treat every pet as if they were part of my own family. I am responsible, caring, and highly observant of their physical and emotional needs. My priority is to ensure that your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for at all times. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate time and attention to the pets in my care. I am available during weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-in visits, daycare, or boarding, ensuring that they receive plenty of affection, exercise, and companionship throughout their stay.
