Dog Sitting Jefferson

About: Over 13 years of experience loving on dogs, including young pups, seniors, and special needs. I think it's an honor and privilege to take in another's dog and am available most weekends and during the week to gladly help. There's plenty of room in my house and a very secure fenced yard to play. I spend a lot of time socializing at the dog park and try to take my dogs out for a walk twice a day. There are many toys here for dogs to enjoy and I will only feed them what I'm asked. I also have many years of experience giving medication to dog(s) if needed. I have two very loving, submissive, happy dogs that welcome the company and are current on all vaccinations. I'm happy to do a trial run in a neutral location if you're interested or you're more than welcome to come over and take a look at the premises. My dogs are allowed on the beds and furniture, however, I'll respect your wishes if your dog(s) aren't. I currently work semi-part time, however, only live about 1 mile from work. I don't like leaving my dogs alone for any length of time as they're my first priority. The longest stretch I'm gone is around four hours. However, I do have a live video and audio feed so I can keep an eye on the dogs and talk to them. While your dog(s) are staying at my place I will send pics and video as I think it's important for you to see what they're up to while you're away and get some peace of mind :). I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your dog(s)! I'm available for boarding and house sitting on weekends and weekdays. I have a fenced yard and two friendly, playful dogs to keep your dog(s) company. I can easily crate your dog if needed and will respect any of your wishes, including following through on training commands.

About: Taking a break from being a pet foster to pet sit again. I was a vet tech for 8 years and I have owned pets for 30 years. I can administer any medications needed. I will also watch dogs that have behavioral issues and I have no breed restrictions. My schedule provides the ability to watch puppies and provide them with the frequent play and bathroom breaks they need. I can also take your pet to any appointments they may have while you are out of town. I am unable to watch pets in my home. I will take your dog on hikes with me if you want or will take them on a stroll in your neighborhood. My work allows me to work from home so when I am pet sitting, I am able to spend a lot of time with your pet. When I am taking care of someone's pet, I treat them as if they were my own. I know that keeping their routine helps to minimize any stress of their owner being away.

“I was so glad when Elizabeth was available. She writes awesome visit summaries and stays in touch the whole time”

“Savanna did an awesome job checking in on our kitties again! She was very prompt and it seems like she gave the kitties lots of love and attention. I appreciated the photos and detailed notes. Thanks so much Savanna!”

“Payton was great in checking in and taking care of my two cats while I was gone for the weekend! She was on-time and a prompt communicator. Thanks Payton!”

“Katie was amazing! She gave us very detailed updates and sent pics every day. She gave us peace of mind for our entire trip. We had many family members comparing updates from their sitters each day and many were jealous that Katie was so much better than theirs. We will definitely use her every time she is available. I would recommend her highly to anyone!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since the moment I could walk and talk. I’ve been called the dog whisperer by many friends, family, strangers. I have been a dog lover since the day I was born. I will make sure your pup is well cared for and loved! I currently dont have a job so im pretty much free to help whenever you need! I do have a 5 month old baby that may or may not come with me. I’ll take your dog on walks around the neighborhood! If that’s what they’re into of course. If not, I’ll make sure we get some quality time inside and outside either playing or cuddling. I’ll make sure your pup gets the right amount of food and water.

About: I am a lifelong animal lover and pet owner. I specialize in both dog and cat care from training and exercising, to feeding and brushing. I am a proud owner of several huskies and a Siamese cat currently. I am a teacher during the day during the school year but have evenings free and any time on the weekends. I’m available most anytime during the summer months. I am a runner and a dog sport enthusiast. I frequently engage in urban mushing with my huskies. I can run or walk your dog and I am also skilled in basic dog obedience skills and pet care. I enjoy interacting with pets in ways to keep them active and happy.

“Alice cared for my rats while I was away. I am very happy with the level of care she provided to them. I will definitely trust her with my rats again in the future.”

“Amanda is such a gift. Communication is great and the pets are so well cared for. I don't know what we would do without her!”

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, starting with cats as a kid and later helping with my mother-in-law’s Jack Russell terrier and Siberian husky, as well as my own 100 lb English Lab. During my five years as a rural letter carrier, I earned the nickname "the dog whisperer" for my ability to befriend even wary farm dogs on my routes. Since then, I’ve looked after a mix of local pets, including a reactive Lab-Shepherd and a few energetic pit bull mixes. I’m patient, calm, and consistent, and pets trust me quickly. Pet care fits perfectly into my flexible schedule while I pursue my Master's in Behavioral Health. I value structure and routine, which makes it easy for me to keep pets on their normal schedule. Spending time with animals is grounding and rewarding. It balances the intensity of my studies and keeps my days centered on care, calm, and connection. I provide attentive and responsible care for pets, prioritizing their safety, comfort, and overall well-being. In my care, I ensure that feeding schedules are followed, environments are clean and secure, and that pets have appropriate stimulation through play or companionship. I maintain open communication with pet owners, report any health or behavioral concerns promptly, and adapt my care routines to each pet’s unique needs and temperament. My experience in customer service, time management, and careful attention to detail ensures a reliable and trustworthy environment for all animals under my supervision.

“Nadiya was an amazing Rover hire. She watched our tuxedo cat Simon or five day. Checked on him 2 times daily. Fed and socialized with him. Received great pics daily. Highly recommend her.”

“Thank you, Nessa for taking care of our kitties! Loved all of the photo updates and it sounds like they warmed up to you pretty quickly. We're already planning to use Nessa for future drop-in visits.”

About: I love working with dogs and taking them out on walks. I love training dogs (walking on leash, no pulling/sit/stay, no darting when door opens). I'm pretty flexible. My current work schedule allows me to be off by 3pm-4pm on most week days and I'm free every weekend. Just let me know if you have any questions. I have a fully fenced back yard and a friendly Silver Lab. I have extra crates, dog cots/elevated dog beds, treats and food if needed. Side note, I also have a Flemish Giant rabbit (Pistachio), he loves dogs but has his own room for his private space.

“Vanessa was patient and understanding with my skittish kitties, giving them a chance to get to know her. Everything was taken care of as asked, and she was wonderful to interact with!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds for years. I’m able to walk, bathe, and snuggle your pets . I will give them all the love while you’re away. I am a homemaker with free availability, I am usually home meal prepping or tending to the garden. I am flexible with schedules and routines to fit your needs. I have a home with a fenced yard in NW Albany. I have two doodles in my home. We spend a lot of time outdoors especially in the morning. I involve them in the afternoon activities as well when I go out to garden. Lots of cuddles, playtime, and treats are shared and are given throughout the day.

“Erin is amazing! Our dog is very picky about who she trusts and who she allows to care for her. Erin came for a meet and greet and Izzy loved her! She took to her immediately which was surprising to us. We will definitely use Erin again and will have peace of mind about leaving our little fur baby when we travel! We would highly recommend her! ♥️”

“Annie goes above and beyond with pictures, communications, and loving on our pets. Our cat and dog love having her and so do we!”

“Kerri was wonderful and sent us many pictures of our kitties. She also played with them a ton! We were very thankful that she was able to extend her visit days to accomodate our travel delay on short notice.”

About: I have three dogs of my own, two being Bull Terriers. If you are familiar with the breed, you understand I have great patience :) I am currently available most days as I am in a career change and enjoying my time reconnecting with my own animals and my home. I can care for your pets in your home. With three dogs at my home, it is not feasible for other dogs to visit. I am available for walks and multiple drop-ins throughout the day.
