House Sitting in Lansdowne

“Jada did great with our (2) Boxers! They can be a little clingy, but she handled it very well and has no issues with overly affectionate pups!”

About: Of course I love animals, but what matters more to me is noticing who your pet actually is. Are they the kind of dog who needs to sniff the same corner for five minutes before moving on? Are they a little shy at first and pretending not to care? Do they get excited easily and need someone calm around them? Are they a cat who wants company, but absolutely not too much company? I really enjoy figuring out those little things. I’m gentle, patient, and very respectful of each pet’s routine. I don’t believe in rushing them or treating every animal the same. Some pets need play and attention, some need slow walks and quiet reassurance, and some just need someone kind nearby so the house does not feel empty. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a way that still feels familiar to them. I’m also very careful with instructions. Feeding routines, medications, walk preferences, favorite toys, things that scare them, how they like to be greeted, whether they are allowed on the couch. I want to know all of it. I know these details are not “extra.” They are usually the things that make a pet feel secure. I’ll also send updates and photos, not just to say everything is fine, but so you can actually feel connected to them while you are away. My childhood friend and roommate, Matin, may also help me sometimes, and you may see her in some of my photos. She has had pets since childhood and fostered animals for several years, so she is very used to different personalities, nervous pets, affectionate pets, and animals who need a little extra patience. She is calm, loving, and very responsible, and I trust her completely with animals. Between the two of us, your pet will be cared for by people who genuinely like being around animals, but who also understand that trust matters. I’ll treat your pet with warmth, patience, and care, and I’ll treat your home and instructions with respect. This year, much of my work is remote, which gives me real flexibility in my schedule. That means I’m able to spend unrushed, attentive time with pets, not just quick check-ins, but actual companionship, care, and presence. I can shape my day around walks, visits, feeding times, play, and quiet company, depending on what each pet needs. My childhood friend and roommate, Matin, who is included in the pictures, also helps me out with my Rover schedules. My home is my cat Lilo’s safe little kingdom, so I can’t host other pets here. But I’m very happy to come to your home, meet outside for walks, or figure out a setup that feels easy and comfortable for you and your pet.

“Jessica was fabulous with our dog who has some special needs (medication and requires some specific handling). She watched her for 10 days while we were on vacation and was a confident, responsible, communicative dog sitter. We couldn’t hope for anyone better when searching on Rover and feel fortunate that we knew 100% that our dog was in excellent hands while we were away.”

“Caris thank you again! Our dog Chance was perfect and seems so happy upon our return from being with Caris. She did such an amazing job. She sent pictures and daily updates making me feel so at ease and worry free knowing my baby was in great care. We would absolutely love to use her again in the future! She is by far exactly what we were looking for and Chance seemed to absolutely adored her! 💗”

“Y’all. YALL. I’m just saying… Sky is FANTASTIC. Soooo personable, friendly, actually took our dog on a walk, and it’s evident that she really cares. Our dog, William, warmed up to Sky SO fast. I hope everyone can book her but I also hope that y’all don’t take my Saturdays ?”

“I could tell our two big dogs were well taken care of and loved. Brandi gave our one dog all his meds and even worked on our young one with learning commands. She took excellent care of the dogs and the house.”

About: Hi! I have 10 years of experience taking care of cats and dogs! I currently do not have any pets but love having them over. Not only do I have plenty experience, but I am also insured in the event of an accident! Please don’t hesitate to contact me 💖 I work from home as an administrative assistant so my schedule is very open and I am able to give really good care and attention to your pet if they are staying at my place. In addition to this I can also work traveling to your lovely animal into my schedule with no problems! While I live in an apartment building there is a fenced off area for pets to use the bathroom and play and it is even separated by the size of dogs so that they can safely play and roam. Pets are allowed on my furniture and I take care of them as if they were my own.

“Philip agreed to stay with my dog overnight last minute after my usual sitter had to cancel. From the get go he was professional and communicative, and my dog really took to him. He sent lots of pictures and when I got home the house was exactly as I left it. Happy dog, happy dog mom, I highly recommend Philip!”

“Ximena was a great communicator during our trip sending check ins every day with photos of how our dog was doing. 100% would use Ximena again in the future.”

“We cannot recommend Adam enough as a house/dog sitter. It is always so hard to find someone trustworthy enough to stay in our home and take care of our amazing boy. Adam was communicative, trustworthy, and reliable allowing for us to have a relaxing vacation knowing that our pup was safe. We have a 2 year old doberman who is not always the quickest to warm up to people, however he took to Adam quickly and truly enjoy his stay with him. In addition, the house was in excellent condition when we returned and Loki was happy and well exercised. Will absolutely book Adam again for future sitting opportunities and strongly recommend him to sit your pup.”

“Jourdan was wonderful with our 2 dogs. They are both large breeds and the German Shepherd is especially energetic but Jourdan was up to the task. She played with, took care of, and stayed overnight with them and kept the house looking just as good as we left it. She sent pics of our furbabies which helped since we missed them so much. We appreciate her and definitely recommend!!!”

“Quanece & Malik are awesome! They are so helpful, go above and beyond and most importantly super loving and patient with my anxious pup. I am so grateful for their love and care that I know I can rely on when I’m not there. They are very easy to work with, flexible and communicative. Cannot recommend their services enough! Thank you!”

“Faith was wonderful with our pup! She was very communicative, sent pictures, and kept Evie company whole we were out for late night plans. We will definitely book her again.”

“Paz looked after our senior dog through a tornado warning and heat wave while we were traveling internationally. Paz went way, way above the call of duty by taking our girl to the vet when she started a hunger strike mid-way through the visit. The vet remarked that Paz was very knowledgable, attentive, and great with our girl. Paz has some sort of gift for getting animals to take medications - hopefully she'll offer a "how to" class at some point! And Paz stays in very frequent contact, sending updates and lots of photos. We are so very grateful for Paz!! She is caring, responsible, and very attentive. We cannot recommend her enough.”

Valerie E.

“We had a great experience with Amelia. She was quickly responsive to our messages and gave plenty of updates on her weekend with our pup. We’ll definitely be using her again!”

Brett T.

“Margo took great care of my senior dog. She is reliable and a good communicator. She puts in the time and effort to genuinely understand the animal she takes care of. I would definitely recommend her pet sitting services.”

“Jacqueline was able to help us out last minute and come house sit our pup. She was very communicative and sent updates throughout her stay. We came home to a clean house and happy puppy.”

About: I’ve been caring for my own pets (cats and dogs) and those of community members for the past 15 years. I can bond with almost anyone (especially the anxious ones). I enjoy hiking, strolls around the neighborhood, sunbathing in parks, or a cuddle session with my (or the pet’s) favorite Hulu show. Currently my pack is my two cats, 3 year olds Basil and Sage, who I have had since they were 4 months. I’ve cared for puppies too, and just about everywhere in between. I love playing frisbee in clark park and can adapt to your unique training style. I’m working from home so I am flexible with time. My goal is to expand my experience in the hopes I can work with dogs more professionally in the future. Thank you for considering me, and I look forward to meeting you! I’m working full time from home, M-F. I’m the best fit for weekend care, and with advance notice, I can be available on weeknights. My availability is very limited for overnight bookings, so I ask at least one week notice. I have a fully fenced in yard, and 2 very friendly cats. I have several rooms available to separate my babies from yours if needed.
