House Sitting in Knowlesville

“Shelby is WONDERFUL with both my high energy beagle/lab mix and with my little old shih tzu. She sends pictures while I’m gone, is very meticulous with notes at a meet up and updates as well. I trust her in my home and with my pups. Highly recommend.”

“Jack and Emily took very good care of Riley. They spoiled her and made her comfortable as it took her a day or two to adjust to her new surroundings. Jack was good about sending pictures and updates. He even sent her home with a special treat. Thank you for watching her for us!”

About: I've cared for family and friends dogs since I was a teenager, as well as our own dogs. I have experience with diabetic dogs and other medical needs. I work part time and will spend my off time with your pup. I like to meet everyone before sitting so I can get to know their routines and make sure everyone is comfortable! I will care for your pets as you do. I typically visit the home before dogsitting to meet the dog and see what their routine is.

“Janet was amazing! All of my pets interacted well with her and she kept me updated on how they were doing while I was away. I highly recommend Janet and will definitely use her again for care of my pets!”

About: From the first moments I could remember, I have always been around and caring for dogs and cats. I'm also a professional equine bodyworker, with medical experience that is easily translated over to our smaller, 4-legged friends. I take a gentle and intuitive approach with animals, focusing on positive reinforcement. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule. If staying at your home, I will never be gone for more than 8 hrs at a time. Weekends are usually no issue to schedule around either While staying at your home, I stick to the routine you have developed with your pets to make it as stress-free as possible. I recognize the importance of structure with dogs and cats, and losing that while their humans are away can be a big stressor. I will do my best to act as an extension of you while you are away to ensure the most personalized care.

“Kelly is a wonderful and reliable pet sitter She keeps me updated and sends great pictures. I know my pets are being loved and cared for when I’m gone!”

About: I have always been a pet lover, but my soft spot is definitely for dogs! I have experience at dog daycares and boarding facilities and sanctuaries/rescues. I am CPR certified. I have experience and patience with senior dogs, they deserve all the love too! I am currently looking to becoming a full time pet care specialist, I want to build a clientele here and build relationships with new dogs. A few things factor into this. Most importantly for me is knowing and understanding the pets current routine, following all instructions and any precautions-for pets safety and my own, then updating owner about stay/walk/visit.

“This was our second time having Sarah stay with our dog. I couldn’t ask for a better experience! Sarah was excellent at keeping in touch, our dog was happy and well cared for. Our dog has some special needs and I always worry about leaving him but Sarah was amazing at understanding him and his needs. The house was exactly as we left it. Overall, a fantastic experience!”

About: I have never had a life without dogs, so I get it! Finding a sitter you trust is absolutely essential and I am happy to provide that for you and your fur baby. Being a sitter for over 5 years, I come with lots of references and experience! From dogs, cats, rodents, birds, and exotic pets, I can care for them all. Full time pet sitter - Your pet has my attention full time so get ready for lots of photo and video updates! I know this is important I have many references that have told me I get along with their pets very easily and they appreciate the communication I provide. They also appreciate that I respect the home and leave it just as clean or cleaner than how it was when I arrived .

About: I’ve been working in the veterinary field for 6 years and have had tons of hand in training in emergency care as well! I work with large and small animals and can also groom your pets as well! My schedule is very flexible and and I can accommodate to any needs! I just need at least a weeks notice, which would be much appreciated! I have had years of training and hands on experience caring for pets in all matters of their health and wellness and would be able to give your pets the best care!

“Rebecca took great care of my dog and 2 cats. I felt berry confident leaving them in her capable hands!”

About: I understand that the worst part of your day is leaving your dog. I absolutely love dogs and will guarantee that your dog will feel safe and happy at home when he/she is with me. I am the one amongst all of my friends that watch their dogs or simply take them out for a hike because they don’t have the time or energy. I have watched dogs from malamutes to Yorkies, and I’m a very active person that loved to exercise my late dog (as of March this year) with hikes to get his energy out! However, if a walk is all he needs or lots of attention at home I am happy to do that. I am a physical therapist and have just completed my canine rehab certification to work with animals and have also recently lost my Aussie of 10 years but not ready to have another, missing my dog interactions! I’m currently working PRN around western NY- I definitely have availability at nights for the long walks they may need and daytime hours are variable according to my work schedule, just ask ! I have availability to a fenced in yard, my apartment would require stairs however. I take frequent walks and can accommodate to your dogs schedule.

About: Hi there! I'm Becca. I love animals and grew up living and helping on my family’s beef cattle farm. I have cared for a large variety of pets and farm animals since I was young. My clients typically own cats and/or dogs, but I have also cared for clients’ horses, donkeys, alpacas, goats, chickens, aquarium pets, fish (etc.). I currently still live on the family farm, and personally own a horse and four sheep. I also help care for the family dog and cats. I have 10+ years of in-home pet sitting experience. I offer in-home pet care and house sitting with overnight stays and would love to care for your pet(s) while you’re away! I work on the farm and freelancing jobs so I can usually create my own work schedule aside from a few times where it’s dependent on others’ schedules. With that being said, I am accommodating as possible around my own work schedule. I could leave from your home and return after work. Some days I won’t have work at all. If this schedule works for you and your pet(s), I look forward to working with you! I understand that every pet has their own unique care. Each animal’s specific routine is important. I will learn their likes and dislikes and what works best for your pet(s)!

“Shauna was great with out two dogs. She took great care of them and took care of the house. She kept us updated and sent pictures throughout her stay. I highly recommend her and will be asking her to dogsit again.”

“This experience was the best I’ve experienced with a pet sitter! Frances went above and beyond what was expected. She took very good care of the pets. She was very attentive. She informed me every day of everything. She cleans the house she clean the patio area. I will be definitely booking again for her. 😊”

Andrea S.

“Our dog seemed content when we returned but not overly anxious about us being back. Our dog sitter kept Diesel happy and content while we were gone. House was in good shape. Overall pleased with her assistance. Would recommend her to others.”

About: I am wild about dogs, all breeds. I often think if I could go back, I might have gone to school to be a veterinarian. I grew up with dobermans, cats, riding horses and much more. I have found that most animals love me. I just lost my Golden Retriever, Nalu, after 14 amazing years. Something to be said in that she had more Facebook friends & photos than I do. I just moved down here a year ago from South Glastonbury and most of my new neighbors in Deep River have asked me to watch their animals at one time or another without any sort of solicitation so I believe that is a testament to my character and integrity. Any other questions you might have, I would be happy to answer.

About: I have loved dogs my whole life. Unfortunately (with the exception of when I was very little and one year as a teenager living with my mother) I grew up without dogs living with my father in an apartment. Getting married changed that as my wife at the time of dating had one dog and we now have 3 wonderful dogs, all rescues. We have also fostered in the past. I am passionate about rescuing dogs and dogs (and all animals) rights to a loving home free of abuse. I receive so much joy from being with dogs and have formed a strong bond with all 3 of our kids. My wife and I have no human children so the dogs are pretty much our life. As of now I am in between jobs so I have a lot of availability. I am looking for late mornings through the evening. I unfortunately cannot do overnights or earl mornings. I don't think I could do it at my house as out dogs do not always get along with others especially on their territory. I would be available to work I your home or I can provide dog walking services.
