House Sitting in Jerome

“Laura G. was an excellent catsitter with my big elder kitty, Axel. She was wonderful about establishing trust with a meet and greet, and she was flexible with our needs for Axel overnight. 10/10 experience...when I got home from out of town, I could truly tell that Axel had been cared for and adored. Laura is a total professional; the photos and videos of our beloved Axel while we were away was a nice touch every day. Laura also respected our home greatly. I felt very safe leaving instructions for Axels care and our house with Laura G. We appreciated her so much and absolutely will use her services again. Axel says thanks Laura and hopes he gets to hang out with you again soon! Use Laura, she is a rare gem!”

“We absolutely loved having Gina! Our smallest dog is such a grump and she was so patient with him until he could warm up. She sent updates everyday and really seemed to care about how my babies were doing. ❤️We will definitely be using her again.”

Andrea M.

“Margaret was great! She stayed with our two girls for a weekend- one being medically complex and needing medications at specific times. She gave us frequent updates and we knew our girls were in great hands!”

Megan R.

“Jessika was great watching my two dogs over the weekend, sending us pictures and updates every day! We will contact her again when we need a petsitter :)”

About: I have been a dog lover my whole life. I’m used to taking care of multiple dogs at a time and enjoy walking, feeding, and training dogs. I currently have two dogs of my own and take them on multiple walks a day. Pet care for my two dogs is deeply integrated into my daily routine. I take amazing care of my two dogs and would do the same for clients. I am currently training my newest dog with simple commands on walks as he was not leash trained. I would do the same to help clients have peace of mind knowing that their dog is in good hands.

“Thank you so much Jade! Jade gave us updates every few hours on our 3 day trip without our fur baby. She made sure our pup was well fed and walked even in the negative degree weather! Couldn’t recommend her more!”

“Barb was so kind to my fur-babies and so respectful of my home. She was available and came by very last minute when my scheduled person was over 40 minutes late with no notice. I can’t express my appreciation enough! I already have her scheduled for a future visit with my littles!”

David S.

“Kasondra was great with our senior foster dog! She took him out for walks, car rides & gave us multiple updates throughout the day. We’d highly recommend her!”

Shivani P.

“Lisa was a fabulous caregiver for my cat, Rizzo! She is a loving and caring person and went above and beyond the perimeters of our engagement and spent extra time with him, bought him toys, and watched over my house and watered flowers too in my absence. I highly recommend her for any pet care or house sitting or both.”

Debbie P.

“Abby was great to work. She communicated frequently and asked questions to make sure she followed what Yoly needed. She kept Yoly in her routine and was a great house guest. I would not hesitate to book with Abby again.”

Katie S.

“Mary is great with my babies! I will definitely use her again! Also, being the day after the heavy rains she helped to keep an eye on my sump pump so I’d know if my basement was flooding! Above and beyond!”

David S.

“Our dogs love Emily so much! They get excited just seeing her come to the door. I think she spoils them more than we do. I hope we can always get her for our sitter.”

Joan L.

“Kapria was amazing with my baby kitty! She gave me great updates about him and stayed at my place smas requested. She is a wonderful pet person and I highly recommend her!!!”

About: Hi, I’m Rob! I work from home, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, love, and care throughout the day. I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have several years of hands-on experience as both a foster and pet sitter. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels—from high-energy puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. I’m comfortable with all parts of pet care, including: • Administering medications (oral, topical, and even injections) • Following feeding and potty schedules closely • Crate training and leash walking • Helping anxious or shy dogs feel safe and settled I take pride in creating a calm, consistent environment that helps pets feel right at home. Whether your dog needs extra playtime, belly rubs, or just someone to chill on the couch with—I’m happy to meet them where they are. 📅 Availability: I’m available for overnight boarding. (Please see my calendar for availability and message me with any questions) I’m also available for doggy daycare between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., with flexibility outside those hours on a case-by-case basis. 🚗 Pickup/Drop-off: Available for an added fee, if that makes things easier. 🐾 Bonus: My 6-year-old son stays with me half the time and absolutely loves dogs. Your pup will get an extra playmate for backyard games, fetch, and couch snuggles. I know how important it is to find someone who truly cares about your pet—I’d love the chance to give your dog a safe, fun, and loving home-away-from-home! Since I work from home, I’m able to maintain a consistent schedule for the pets I care for. I make sure they get regular bathroom breaks, plenty of free-roaming time both inside and outside, fresh water available at all times, and daily walks to get their energy out. I’m very familiar with the zoomies-to-napping cycles, and I’m here for all of it. Pets are treated like friends and family here. I’m calm, consistent, and firm when it comes to guidance, but never use any kind of violence or harsh correction. I follow the training and commands you’ve already put in place, use the harnesses, collars, and leashes you provide, and only feed the food and treats you bring. My backyard is fully enclosed with a 6-foot privacy fence and one secure gate that requires opposable thumbs to open—so no escape artists here! My own Doodle is crate-trained and uses the crate overnight and when I’m away. I also use baby gates throughout the house when needed to keep pets safely separated or out of areas they shouldn’t be in. You’re welcome to bring your own crate, ask if I have one available, or let me know if your dog is house-trained and prefers to roam freely. I’ll make sure they have a safe and comfortable space either way. You’ll also get regular pictures and updates from me throughout your pet’s stay so you can feel connected and confident while you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of many types of animals for over 10 years. I love working with animals, specifically learning how I can take the best care of them. It makes me happy to keep pets and the environment as healthy as possible.💚😁 I have a ginormous yard where there is plenty of space to walk, run, and play around. I am usually visit pets 2-3 times a day, anytime during the day and possibly available for over night stays. If there is anything else you or your pet needs, just ask!! I have a very large yard with no fence. I can keep dogs on a leash if needed. There’s plenty of space to run and play.

About: Hi, my name is Alexa. I love all animals but especially dogs! I grew up always having them. I have house sat for someone with one large and one medium size dogs before and it went very well. I made sure to give them their medications when needed. I have lots of free time at the moment so I can give your pets plenty of love and attention that they deserve. I am willing to take them on walks, check ins, or overnights. I will be more than happy to send you updates and photos if you would like. I look forward to taking care of your furry family members! I am currently waiting for a background check to be completed for a a job, so I have full availability to take care of your fur baby. I live in an apartment. so I will be more than willing to care for your pet in your home, take them for walks outside, go potty and play in the yard.

“Tara was wonderful with my senior golden. She sent pictures during here stay and communicated well with me. I will definitely seek her out again for services. I felt at ease on my work trip with her sitting for Mandy while I was gone.”

Michelle E.

About: No dog too big or small to handle. Being around animals for me is therapeutic so I am getting more in return! Skilled with cats and dogs since a young age and hope to meet your bundle of joy soon! Very flexible as I work from home and currently pet sitting for a few friends full-time. Available most all days of the week and holidays. I ensure the well-being of pets by following established routines for feeding, exercise, and play. I maintain a clean and safe environment, administer medications as needed, and provide ample affection. Communication with pet owners is key to understanding specific needs and addressing any concerns promptly.
