Pet Sitting Lakeridge Oaks

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have had a soft spot for animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve joked that animals understand me better than people do, so being around them feels pretty natural to me. I have an 11-year-old Labrador with medical needs, which has taught me a lot about being patient, paying attention to the little things, and giving senior pets the extra care they need. I’ve also enjoyed walking and caring for the dogs of friends and neighbors over the years. I’m a calm and gentle person, and I think pets pick up on that. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away, and for you to have that same peace of mind. I’ll take the time to learn their routine, get to know their personality, and give them plenty of attention and affection. I’ll also send you updates and photos during visits so you know how they’re doing and can feel a little more connected while you’re away. My schedule is flexible, which gives me plenty of time to spend with your pups and give them the attention they deserve. I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., seven days a week. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and take my time with each visit rather than rushing from one appointment to the next. I enjoy having a flexible schedule because it allows me to make pet care a priority and be there when you need me. Whether your pup needs a good walk, some playtime, or a little extra company during the day, I’m happy to be there. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my first priority. Before a visit, I’ll take the time to learn about their routine, personality, and anything I should be aware of, including medications, feeding instructions, or behaviors. When I’m in your home, I’ll treat it with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll make sure doors and gates are secure, follow your instructions closely, and keep an eye out for anything that seems unusual. I’m also happy to send updates and photos during each visit so you know your pet is safe, happy, and getting the care they need.

“Barbara was amazing while we were gone for a long weekend. She updated us with pictures of all four of our cats at visits and she was always easy to talk to - kind & warm! She also made sure our senior cat got his transdermal meds every night, which was a big concern of ours!! Thank you for also cleaning up kitty messes during visits Barbara! (Especially the 'exploded' catnip banana! 😱) We felt so at ease knowing she was taking care of our kitto's; we would absolutely book again!”

About: What sets me apart is the care, patience, and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m happy caring for playful puppies, energetic dogs, and senior pets who may need extra patience and attention. I can help maintain feeding and medication routines, reinforce basic training, provide plenty of exercise and playtime, and give senior pets the calm, gentle care they deserve. My goal is simple: happy pets, peace of mind for you, and a sitter you can trust. I have an open schedule so I have enough time to tend to your pup. I can house sit all the time to walk them as needed First thing I do before and while they go out side I will observe all there escape routes and Make sure that everything is closed and secure

“Luke was amazing! He accepted my request last minute and was able to care for multiple dogs with ease. He gave great updates when he was on his way and how each visit went with pictures and details. I didn't feel worried while I was away at all. He is also very mindful when it comes to your home which I really appreciated. 100% recommend and will book with him in the future.”

“Madison was amazing! When she first met Benji Muffin she bonded right away. She was caring, compassionate and careful with my older beloved dog. She was respectful in my home and I trust her completely. I enjoyed receiving her pictures and it put me at ease during my vacation. I could tell right away that she really enjoyed what she was doing. I think Benji Muffin misses her.”

Ruth S.

“Justin is easy to work with and a great communicator. We appreciated that he got back to us right away to confirm his availability and provided twice daily updates on our dogs. We won’t hesitate to recommend him to our friends and neighbors. Thanks Justin!”

Teresa H.

“She was reliable for some of the agreed days, and although we talked about a long term arrangement, things changed on her end, so now I am needing to find someone else.”

“Amy has watched my two cats several times now, and she always does a great job. She was flexible with scheduling when I needed to extend a trip, and she even got my picky, shy cat to play with her!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with five years of hands-on pet-care experience and four cats of my own. I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, walking, playing, cleaning litter boxes, and following each pet’s normal routine. I can also trim cats’ nails and brush both cats’ and dogs’ teeth. I’m patient with nervous animals and understand that every pet needs time to feel safe and comfortable with someone new. I also volunteer with the SPCA, which has given me even more experience around animals with different personalities and needs. Pet care fits very well into my weekly schedule. I’m available throughout the day on Sundays and Mondays, as well as Friday and Saturday evenings.

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication, grooming, and household routines. I keep doors and gates secure, maintain clean food and water bowls, clean litter boxes thoroughly, and give each pet the level of attention or personal space they prefer. I’ll also send regular photos and updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: Wow, I can’t remember a time I didn’t have a dog in my life. I grew up with a dog as a child. When I had a family we had a family dog and he grew up with my children, and have had a handful since. Currently, I have two shih tzu dogs that enjoys being around other dogs and playing. My grown children bring over their dogs for family events and my house becomes a doggy zoo! We wouldn’t want it any other way. I am a trusted friend who takes care of our friends and family dogs.

About: I have taken care of dogs for the past 5 years or so by myself. Growing up my parents watched dogs for friends and family every so often. We also had a border collie mix of our own for 15 years and I was responsible for taking care of him. I currently work M-Th; 9am-5pm but fairly free before or after work for walks and playtime. I tend to get up early on work days but a night owl on the weekends. I enjoy getting out on the weekends like going on walks with hikes. I currently do not have fenced in hard but I do have a large grass area right outside my house that is dog friendly and is great for playtime and even doggie pool time.

“I had a wonderful experience with Haley! She provided thoughtful daily updates and photos, which I really appreciated while I was away. My cats can take some time to warm up to new people, and she was incredibly patient and understanding, allowing them to get comfortable with her at their own pace. I felt completely at ease while I was away, knowing I could trust her to take good care of them. I would absolutely recommend her and would happily book with her again!”

About: Hi furry parents! I have helped countless family members and friends with pet-sitting. My family has had dogs, cats and birds ever since I was 3. I'm looking forward to spending more time with animals and will care for them like my own! We can work out whatever system is best for you and your pets comfort and needs-whether that's multiple walks a day or rest time for older pets. I have been known to be attentive to animals energy. Whether they are annoyed, playful, curious, not feeling well or ready for a W-A-L-K I anticipate to open myself up to their mood! I hope you'll consider me for reliable care for your pets :) In accordance with my availability I will be nearly free while I am furloughed. More time with your pets for walks, medicine, cuddles, whatever your pet seems to need. :) At the time I am only available for in-house pet sitting in your home. I'll be sure to pre-negotiate where in your home I am permitted and where you would like to keep your privacy. I'll be sure to be respectful and abide by your guidelines always.

“Shannon took such good care of our dog while we were away on vacation! She checked on him 3 times a day and always at the scheduled time. She walked him 2-3 times a day, sent us numerous pictures, and frequently kept us updated on how he was doing. She made us feel confident that he was being well taken care of and given lots of attention, which allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worrying. We would definitely have Shannon watch him again the next time we go out of town!”

About: Mindful and attentive former pet care worker and dog walker with multiple years walking, training, and nurturing dogs, cats, and wild animals. My record is impeccable and without incident - this is because I understand the importance of attending to a client's every need, constantly prioritize safety in what is, by nature, a volatile field, and have a deep appreciation for the behavioral needs and individual personalities of the pets I take care of and connect with. I love dogs. I've loved them all my life. And I understand that the second I walk into your home, leash in hand, I am responsible for the well being a loved and dear member of your family - and I treat them as if they were my own. I am currently caring for my grandmother while she undergoes treatment for terminal lung cancer. Otherwise, my responsibilities are all remote, and I can be present for your pets day and night. I take health and safety concerns as a necessity, and will make sure to attend to your specific needs and risk factors. I have walked packs of dogs through LA and Manhattan during rush hours and have never had a single incident occur.

About: Ive had dogs, cats, horses, goats, sheep, chickens and many other so im well versed in taking care of many different animals with varying needs and diets. i currently work part time in retail and go to one of the local community colleges and am looking for extra income throughout the week. I can easily follow any instructions given on how to care for your pet including feeding, walking, cleaning and hanging out with them just so they have some quality enrichment for the day.
