House Sitting in Hornby

About: I did the animal science program at boces for 2 years where I got to get hands on experience with all kinds of animals such as taking care of dogs. Due to taking the animal science program I am certified as a veterinary assistant. Right now I’m also going to school for my bachelors degree in canine training and management. I also have 2 cats of my own that I’ve had and taken care of since I was 11. Heads up I have 2 cats at home still so for boarding requests I cannot accept cat reactive dogs. It fits into my schedule for the summer because of college break because I won’t have school at all and I’ll be able to give a most of my time to your pets although I do have work Monday Wednesday and Thursday. Although since Monday Wednesday and Thursday I have work from 8 to 11:30 so if doing a boarding I wouldn’t be back home until 4:30 because of transportation depending so dogs have to be okay being home alone for a little bit. If I do house sitting I cannot get to a house after 7am and before 4pm due to transportation because I cannot drive due to medical reasons and only have transportation before 7am and after 4pm. Be up front and open. Follow and respect the animals and if you go to the home respect and follow the rules. I don’t have a fenced in yard.

About: Responsible and caring. I want to be sure all their needs are met so they are comfortable and safe. Pets deserve to be treated well. I have spare time to help a family out with their pets. I am truly committed to the time slots I say I am available. I have an indoor cat, but he loves to go outside, so I put a collar and a leash on him and take him out daily.

“I am always nervous to leave my pets with someone else but Angie was absolutely wonderful! She updated me daily and went above and beyond to make sure my babies were all happy and well taken care of.”

“Cassandra did an amazing job taking care of my 3 cats. She was very quick to respond if i had any question or concerns and showed real genuine care for my animals. She was my first sitter on Rover so i was kind of nervous about the whole process but she really made everything very easy and i was able to focus on my vacation and what i needed to get done.”

About: I've worked with all different kinds of animals, from domestic cats an dogs to guinea pigs,rabbits,lizards, etc. Family an friends have relied on me to walk, feed & bathe their pets. Along with grooming, nail trimming, etc. I work at a veterinary clinic with that being said I am available on weekdays anytime after 5:00pm and weekends anytime. Pet care fits my schedule great its what I was born to do working with animals. I have a huge yard to run around in with your critter, along with 1 dachshund to keep you oets company. If your pet needs to be crated or have medication, etc. I have plenty of room an chalk boards to remind of times for feeding an medication if needed. I currently work at a veterinary office. So pet care works into my routine on a daily. I have 1 dog of my own that I care for and make sure he is updated on shots, etc. I am able to pretty much do alot of things for pets, like nail trims, give medications if need be, alone with just walking the dogs etc. I care for animals anyways youd like your pretty to be cared for, if you pet needs medication, or certain play times etc. I'm more then happy to do so, I feel walking or having that one on one time with the pets is very important.

“Lauren was prompt, had great communication and we felt good leaving Bo with her while we went to do some hiking on trails he wasn’t permitted on. We highly recommend this young lady. Thank you Lauren you are pawsome!”

“Jess is phenomenal! She watched our 3 kitties and 1 very large doggo for two weeks and we came home to happy animals and a clean home. The detail and care she has makes me feel like she truly cares for her clients animals like her own. I got so many cute photos and updates while we were away and her little stories of their adventures made my day each time. She was so thorough at the beginning of the process and is such a sweet and easy going person. We will definitely book with her again and I highly recommend you choose her as well! 5 paws! ? ⭐️”

“Elli did an awesome job watching my clingy goldendoodle! He typically doesn't do well.with new people so I had a couple meet and greats with Elli prior to us leaving for 12 days. Elli stayed at our home and I would definitely recommend her for anyone else that needs someone to take care of your fur baby.”

About: My very first pet was our dog Lily. She was a Shi tzu. Sadly, she passed away in 2020, but we kept her pups. Lily Jr, Harmony, Mr. Tibbs & Bellsprout. They all still live at home with my parents. I miss them all the time. I've taken care of animals my whole life, I love it, it gives me purpose. I work part-time and I'm currently in medical school trying to pay off my student loans. So I'm trying to make some extra money doing something I love. Thank you for your support I'm vigilant while I'm supervising animals. I know how fast and mischievous they can be. Safety is my number one motto when taking care of any living being. Safety first, fun right after. Some may call may Ace Ventura 🤣

About: I’ve pet sat for family members but I’ve also and still currently pet sit for previous teachers. I’ve done an internship at a vet clinic. I completed boces which made me a certified veterinary assistant. I worked at the SPCA while finishing up college. Volunteered at Tanglewood Nature Center. Depending on my work schedule I spend as much time as possible outside of work with your pets. I don’t leave them alone for long at all. I’m easy going, my dog gets crated when I’m not home. I will make sure nothing is sitting out that could potentially harm an animal

“Lillian was very reliable and communicatve. My dog gunnar takes a bit to warm up to others, and he loved her right away. Will def be using her again.”

Lillian B.

“This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't have been happier with Diana's care for our Ellie. We met with her before her stay, and she asked a lot of great questions and was very detail oriented, which we really appreciated. She kept us updated with texts, pics, and even a video of our butt wagger! Unfortunately, our pup got sick Diana's last night. She handled it with ease. She left the house very clean, and followed all of our crazy directions. Would definitely recommend Diana to take care of your fur baby!”

“Daisy was great! Arrived on time, kept in communication while we were gone, and followed all directions. Will definitely be using her again!”

Deidre D.

“She was wonderful! I didn't have to worry about my dogs being taken care of or coming home to a mess. My dogs were well loved and my house was the same as I left it! I was sent pictures and kept in communication with Kimberly! I'd highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all age and sizes since I was a child. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to do anything their pet needs while they’re away. In the future I’m looking to take a dog training course and slow transition into that as a full time job. Every morning I wake up and immediately tend to the dogs and let them outside to use the bathroom and play around, then we come Inside to eat breakfast to start the day. We go outside about 3x daily to potty and play. I have a big privacy fenced in yard for play time. I have 4 dogs of my own. However I typically do not let them converse with my boarding dogs unless known that they are friendly.
