Pet Sitting in Linden

“Shelly was great! Paid great attention to details on care and sent daily pics and emails on her visit. I was able to focus on my trip instead of worrying about what was happening at home. Will be asking her to watch my dogs again next time we take a trip!”

“I was very fortunate to find Leaha after a foot fracture left me unable to provide my dog the outdoor time and attention she needed. She provides a 1/2 hr visit during which she takes my dog outside to play and explore. Leaha has been absolutely wonderful, great with communication, flexible with scheduling, and so sweet and patient with my Doodle, who absolutely loves her.”

“So happy to find Krystal! She did a great job taking care of our two cats, it’s so nice to know they are in such great hands when we are out of town. We also received lots of photos and updates which was very much appreciated! We will definitely be using Krystal to take care of our boys from now on. Thank you!!😊”

“I needed someone on very short notice (on Christmas Eve) to let my old girl Lola out for me at night to save me from having to leave family Christmas party and drive 30 minutes both ways. Kellie came in clutch! Quick responses, and followed instructions precisely. Will definitely book again in the future.”

About: I have had cats and or dogs all my life. I enjoy caring for animals of all ages. I am retired, active and enjoy walking. I am a retired medical professional who enjoys being active. I am available to care for your pets during the day M-F in your home. I am happy to follow any instructions on how to care for your pet to best meet their needs in your home. I have a flexible schedule allowing time to play with your pet.

About: I have had my current dog for over a year and we are training to become a Therapy Dog Team. I previously volunteered at Capital Humane Society for 6 months as an Adoption Counselor. I am currently volunteering at Great Lakes Dog Rescue. Growing up I helped take care of the family dog. I took Veterinary Science at the Henry Doorly Zoo in high school and have a Bachelor’s Degree in Human Nutrition and Exercise Science. I have experience in training and know how to give dogs vaccinations. I am also happy to provide a basic behavioral profile for your dog for future sittings. I’m currently in-between jobs and have a very open schedule. My schedule is also very open around the upcoming holidays. I don’t celebrate Christmas either. I live in an apartment and walk Sophie 4-6 miles a day. More than happy to do dog introductions before sitting. If it’s a house sitting, more than happy to keep the dogs fairly separate and will take my dog to my apartment instead of leaving the dogs alone. I will never leave my dog and your dog alone in the house.

“Elena took wonderful care of our dogs. She was very prompt with responding to my request & questions. She sent me wonderful photos of our dogs—the best photos of Jazz we have?. Highly recommend Elena! We will definitely hire her again.”

About: I have had dogs my entire life! I have grand kitties that I adore! If i could have a farm with 1000 animals I would! I am home all day and would love to walk, feed, snuggle and/or help care for your babies! I have all the knowledge of how much you care for your pet! I have 2 small dogs. I do not have a fenced yard, but do live on a dead end street, if your dog were to stay here.

About: I have been dog sitting for over 4 years now and the types of dogs have ranged from a few weeks old to 15 years old. I grew up with dogs and I even help volunteer at an animal shelter when I have the chance. I’ve animal sat for: dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, turtles, and more. I work part time and have plenty of time to take care of any animal I only work 4 hours on most days which gives me a lot of time to play and socialize with the animals. On Monday and Wednesday I work 7 hours, from 9-12 and 2-6 in between those time I will be with your fur baby’s aswell. Tuesdays and Thursdays I have school at 8-11am. Tuesdays I work 2-6. Fridays I work 8-12pm. So your animals will only be home alone short amounts of time. I plan to let out the animals every 4 hours or earlier on Monday and Wednesday’s. Then on any other day I will be with them every second I can be and I will be letting them out very frequently or as often as asked.

“Becky was just the person we needed on our first trip away from our baby. She was great at getting Cali out to play and checking on her needs.”

“Brittany is wonderful! Rio love to spend time with her. She is very thoughtful and spend Rio’s energy before put him back on his crate. Brittany keeps me updated with everything going on, schedule and activities. I am very thankful to have her taking care of my boy once a week.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, having the unique experience raising and training dogs through my father, an experienced police dog trainer and handler. I have a lot of patience and take great care in handling dogs of all breeds. I have skills and experience in crate training, potty training, leash training, getting pets used to kids and other animals, and breaking food and toy aggression. I am available for drop-in visits and walks for all animals. I am able to board up to 3 dogs at a time. I am able to pick up and drop off for an additional fee of $30 each. Pick up and drop off times are flexible. For boards longer than 3 days, I require a “doggy day care” trial with a minimum of 4 hours to ensure your beloved pet and I are good fits for each other. Proof of vaccines required. I am currently a stay-at-home mom, so I have the flexibility to accommodate your pets needs throughout the day. Having three children, we are big fans of routines. I ensure integration of your animals into our daily routine. We live on an acre with a fenced in backyard. Because of the foliage, I do require your dog to be on a tick preventative for their safety. We will keep your fur baby company, loved on and entertained! We spend a lot of time at home, so your pup will never get lonely under our care. I also take time to read your dogs cues and body language and teach my children how to read these and the importance of respecting animals and their boundaries. We treat all animals with love and respect.

About: Ever since I was born, I have grown up with dogs, and caring for them has always been a part of my life. With four dogs in my family, I provide dependable, attentive, and genuinely compassionate care to every pet. Since earning my Master’s Degree, I have worked with people every day, which is what I love to do. I have a full time job but I am currently free for taking care of animals anytime! I can check on your animal(s) before and after work as well as on the weekends. I will take complete care for your pet and be able to do whatever is asked to meet the needs for your pet. I will take the stress out of finding a reliable dog sitter & walker.

“Mia was great! She sent pictures every day, and helped us and our 2 cats and parakeet feel more comfortable during our time away over the holidays. She even re-potted a plant that one of the cats got into. Excellent! Would highly recommend her!”

“Katie is great! This visit was a trial run (not for Katie but our dog Mochi) for a longer stay in the near future. Mochi has anxiety issues with meeting new people and I think they are going to be best buds by the time we get back from our vacation.”

“Alyssa's first drop in visit to my home with my puppy was a little delayed due to some unfortunate vehicle issue but she was able to turn a potential bad situation into a good one. She was upfront and honest with me and was still able to save the day even with everything going on. I appreciated greatly her communication and pics of my pups and her time well spent at my home.”

About: I am a dog and cat lover who knows it is really hard to get away on weekends with pets at home. I enjoy meeting new animals snd have never met a dog or cat I didn’t like! I work full time during the week, so an only able to provide weekend care. But I am pretty free and can be flexible Friday through Sunday. I have a small, fenced in backyard. I do have 2 dogs and cats of my own, so any dogs I care for in my home would have to be dog and cat friendly.

“Amazing!! Carissa visited our two dogs periodically while we were away for the weekend. It was an unconventional request, and she was very accommodating. Our very shy Jupiter warmed up to Carissa at the first meeting. Can't wait to hire her again!”
