House Sitting in Kettering

About: Around here, every pet gets the “favorite auntie” treatment! Hi! I’m Nicole — also known as “Titi” by my favorite little humans — and I’ve built my pet care style around the patience, affection and reliability of your favorite auntie with an emphasis on attention to each pet’s unique needs. From cuddle time to structured routines, I believe pets thrive when they feel safe, understood, and loved. 🧡🐾 My experience in a nutshell: * 5-star rated sitter with 40+ reviews and repeat clients, serving over 200 clients in my 7 years * Experienced with dogs, cats, puppies, senior pets, and special-needs pets * Pet First Aid & CPR certified (American Red Cross) * Comfortable administering medications * Former SPCA volunteer * Over 10 years experience offering boarding, house sitting, walks, daycare, and drop-ins Pet care is both my full-time job and my calling, allowing me to commit special time and attention to your pets individual needs. Each day’s schedule will vary. For walks and drop-ins: If your request consists of two, 30 minute services per day and your dog is crated for the remaining 23 hours of the day, for the safety and well-being of the dog, I cannot accommodate the request. Thank you for understanding!

“Aliyah was absolutely amazing with our two dogs! One of our dogs still has ‘puppy energy’ but she was calm and firm with her. And I swear my house was cleaner than when I left. We absolutely will be booking with her again!”

“Ashley was awesome!! Our pups took to her right away & they seemed sad to see us come back. She sent updates and photos for us. We also really liked Ashley she was easy to get along with and funny. Thanks for a great stay.”

“Anh took terrific care of our pups. She was responsive, sending daily updates and getting in touch with any questions she had about dog care. I absolutely recommend her for puppy care and will request her for future needs.”

“Alayza is a dog whisperer! She’s amazing, kind and patient. My dog has big stranger danger and fear aggression when meeting someone new and it seems he warmed up to her pretty quickly. By the second day he was cuddling with her and letting her pet him! I highly recommend Alayza!”

About: I have always grown up with pets since I was able to walk. Dogs are my favorite thing in life!! I recently had to send my dog to heaven and haven’t been quite ever to get over it. I still have his toy and often pet sit for family and friends to try and fill the void. This will give me just that!! I currently do brand ambassador work so I creat my own schedule, which is great. My availability is very flexible. I’m here if you need me!! I have a fenced in yard for small potty breaks but I enjoy going on walks!! Being out in the fresh air getting exercise is always best.

“Talayia was great! Very communicative and the pets loved her. She followed directions very well and left my house nice and clean. Would definitely recommend her!”

“Sometimes you’ll only know if the Sitter was great by how the dogs react when you walk through the door. I’m happy to say that after being gone on vacation, I came home to two very calm and happy dogs. In the past, I’ve had sitters where when I’ve come home the dogs were uneasy and full of anxiety. So it’s really important to know that the dogs are calm and we’re not stressed out while we were gone. It takes a dog person to be able to give this kind of love. I’m so thankful.”

“Lucy did a great job taking care of my boys!”

“Ada was amazing!! This was my first time using the App and she made me feel so comfortable. She agreed to a meet and greet prior to my house sitting dates and my dogs loved her instantly. She was very communicative and kept me informed on everything. As this was my first time leaving my babies with anyone outside of family, we were all a bit nervous and hoping this was a good match. My mom even checked in with Ada and she was totally cool with. My mom and dog both have dogs and we are pretty certain Ada has 3 new clients. Ada maintained my home wonderfully. She really was patient with and understanding and I would recommend her 10/10, especially for new clients.”

“Kayla does it again! Thanks again Kayla. This is now our 3rd time using Kayla and although it is now pretty simple and routine she has gone above and beyond what is asked of her. She helped fix a situation where one of our kennels needed to be reinforced and she helped fix it without any issues. Would recommend and continue using her for our pets needs.”

About: I have been an animal lover as long as I’ve been alive. For 15 years I have been responsible for caring for a variety of animals but mainly Dogs and Cats. I have experience taking care of animals with a variety of medical issues. I understand the importance of consistency when it comes to caring for a pet in general but especially when they have health concerns. Comfortable around all breeds and sizes. Knowledgeable in leash training, potty training, and crate training. Just like people all animals have their own unique personality. Excited to care for your best friend like they were my own! I do occasionally work on the weekends so there could be 7-8 hour periods between me being with your pet. Would let you know my work schedule if that overlap with care. If no fenced in yard at residence will keep dog on a leash at all times outside the home. I am respectful of peoples homes since that is your safe space. My yard is fenced at my residence so if you wanted your pet to stay with me they would need to be comfortable around 2 fosters cats and children.

“Imani was good at communicating and thoughtful about supporting all the pets through a power outage!”

“I can’t say enough good things about Sabrina! From the moment we met, it was clear our dogs were in loving and capable hands. She went over and beyond in every possible way—sending regular updates, photos, and even taking extra time to make sure the house was spotless when we returned. Our pups were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for (they might have been a little disappointed to see us come home!). It’s such a relief to find someone so trustworthy and genuinely caring. We came back to a tidy home, extra tlc to our home and wagging tails. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pets and your home as if they were their own, I can’t recommend Sabrina highly enough. We’ll definitely be booking again!”

“Alexandra took wonderful care of my adult dog and puppy. She bonded with the dogs right away, sent plenty of photos and updates, and provided the dogs with lots of attention. She is great at communicating and gave us peace of mind during a couple of busy days of medical appointments. We have already booked her again!”

“Mya did a wonderful job watching our two dogs! She went above and beyond in spending extra time with them and sent us tons of photos and videos. It was obvious that our dogs loved spending time with her and were well cared for. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, hands-on dog sitter for their pup(s)!”
