Pet Sitting in Longbranch

“Sierra is a dog whisperer. I met with her prior to starting weekly drop in visits. I was concerned that my rescue chi who is very anxious wouldn’t be thrilled about a new person coming into our home, as she hasn’t been with the last few people I’ve interviewed. But I was wrong! She calmed within minutes and Sierra was even able to pick her up and take her to the backyard. My chug absolutely adores her and I have peace of mind while I’m at work or out of town. Thank you Sierra!”

“Alivia showed great care with our large and energetic dog, Dexter. She exhibited confidence in working with his erratic/hyper behavior, and made sure to provide him with lots of cuddles and play time during her stop-in. Would recommend, and would book her services again in the future.”

About: I grew up on a farm taking care of animals my whole life, and I’ve also worked at several doggie daycares, a vet clinic and a rescue. I have also done pet sitting on the side and I have experience owning rodents like hamsters, ferrets etc. When it comes to animals there isn’t a lot I won’t do! I’m currently unemployed, so I can work around your schedule and your needs! My only commitments are my own pets, but again I can work around your schedule. When caring for pets in your home I’ll play with them, take them potty, feed them, give them water or medication etc. anything your furry friend needs!

“Bronwen did a fantastic job taking care of our 2 cats while we were away! She was reliable, a great communicator, and expertly handled each of the cat's unique needs. You can trust that your pets will be in great hands while you are gone!”

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover who knows just how important it is to leave your pup somewhere that feels like home. When I look for a sitter myself, I want peace of mind—knowing my dog is safe, loved, and having a great time. That’s exactly what I offer to you and your dog. My partner and I share our home with our happy, high-energy 2.5-year-old male pup, who we raised from a puppy. He’s super social and always ready to help new dog friends burn off some steam—seriously, he’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of playtime! My partner also grew up breeding miniature English Bull Terriers, so between the two of us, we’ve got years of hands-on experience with all kinds of dogs. When you come to pick up your dog, you won’t have to wonder how it went—you’ll know they were in good hands. Happy, tired, and well-loved—just how it should be. Pet care is built right into my daily life. I work from home, so I'm around all day to give your dog the attention and care they need. I take a midday break to walk my dog 1.5–2 miles, and your pup will be right there with us, getting exercise and fresh air. After work, we go for another walk and spend time playing fetch in the yard. With our fenced yard and dog door, they can enjoy safe outdoor time throughout the day too. Your dog will be an active part of our home life and get plenty of movement, love, and attention from morning to night. 🐶 What you can expect: One-on-one attention: I only host one dog at a time, so your pup gets my full care and focus. Daily walks and outdoor play to keep them active and happy. A dog door to our fenced yard—they can come and go as they please (safely!). A calm, secure, and loving environment where your dog can relax just like they would at home.

“This was a last minute request and Silke was super responsive to all messages. Her communication was clear and prompt. I felt very safe with her and she more than delivered on her promises. I am very hapoy and will use her again.”

About: Helping and caring for animals has been my passion ever since I was little. However, my journey towards fulfilling this dream didn’t start until I graduated high school. It was then that I began volunteering at a pet rescue shelter and a wildlife rehabilitation center in Illinois. I especially enjoyed volunteering at the pet rescue shelter. Helping cats and dogs has always been my utmost passion. I was such a familiar face when I volunteered at the pet rescue shelter, that they hired me on the spot when I asked them if they were hiring. This was one of my favorite jobs I ever had. Being able to care for these precious animals was one of my most rewarding life experiences. This job gave me ambition and helped solidify my dream of going to school to be a veterinarian. When I worked at this pet rescue shelter, my goal was to ensure that each and every animal's time at the shelter was as happy and stress free as possible. That being said, the hardest part of the job was not having enough time in the day to spoil 40-50 animals. I wanted to do it all! But I did my best to give each and every animal the physical and emotional enrichment that they needed and deserved with the time I was given. This included long walks and playing fetch with the hyperactive dogs. The dogs that were well socialized were put in the backyard with other dogs to play. I also made sure to give cuddle time with the friendly cats and dogs that really loved people. Along with spoiling these animals, I acquired a lot of experience working with cats and dogs that were aggressive and/or anxious due to their previous living situations, prior to arriving at the shelter. Due to these circumstances, I made sure to assess each animal individually. This is something I carry with me to this day. I never assume an animal's boundaries, regardless of if they have a previous bite history or not. I am also very comfortable with reading an animal’s body language. This includes de-escalating situations when an animal is fearful or upset. Along with working at a rescue shelter, I have 4 years of experience working as a kennel technician at a veterinary clinic and a year of experience as a veterinary receptionist. While I am not a doctor yet and cannot diagnose anything, I am happy to give you general advice on your pet’s health. Your pet’s happiness and health is my number one priority! I hope that this short bio convinces you that your pet will be in great hands. I am very experienced working with animals as it has been my life passion. Your pet will be cared for as if your pet was my own. My hours are very flexible. If you have any questions about a specific time, please feel free to message me. I look forward to hearing from you. The comfort and safety of each animal is something I take very seriously. Your pet will be loved and cared for as if they were my own.

“Sarah is amazing! Her professionalism, understanding and compassion for my almost blind PitBull Terrier is beyond what I could have expected! Thank you for being such a good human being; I am truly grateful.”

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was really young! I had lots of different pets growing up, so I have experience with all types of animals. I have done pet sitting before, by myself and helping my sisters. I am currently on summer break before I go to college at the end of September, so I have lots of free time to take care of pets! I have lots of free time to check on the pets and stay in the house, whatever is needed! I love going on walks, so I have no problems taking your pets for walks or being outside with them!

About: I grew up on a farm with lots of different animals, I also have house sat for friends and neighbors over the years. Love dogs and Cats! I work full time so I'm only available after 5:15 p.m. during the week and weekends. I don't do a lot out side of work. I would do day care and house sitting at the clients home. I can pass a background check and have house sat for friends and neighbors over the years.

About: I love animals and always have. I believe they set us free and cure the pain we harbor. I am trying to get my health back in order while making an extra income to support unexpected life changes! I currently work full time. So working around that schedule until I move out of the position in the near future. But after work I walk my dog and try to get in as much play time in my fenced yard as possible. I have a fully fenced yard with lots of space for your baby to run and play! I have locking doors and a gate to make sure they are secure when necessary as well as outdoor cameras survailing my property.

About: Passionate and devoted animal lover with years of experience in pet care, including personal ownership and watching friends' pets. Your furry companions will receive trusted and compassionate care. Previously a Forester, now currently in between jobs, so I have a decent amount of free time while pursuing some side quests to get by. Depending on what is needed specifically from the pet owner I will tailor my approach according to that, but giving them the same amount of care and attention that I do with all critters.

“Marissa was awesome and I highly recommend!!!”

About: I am a responsible mother looking to earn extra money to finish college. I have had dogs and cats all my life, so you can feel safe trusting me with your babies! I volunteer once a week to feed a local feral cat colony. I also ran a non-profit animal rescue for 5 years, where I cared for up to 75 animals at once. I currently have several rescue roosters, barn cats, indoor cats and one dog in my care. I have a soft spot for the disabled, injured and elderly. 🧡 I am currently a student through WSU Global so all I need is WiFi in order to stay in your home and care for your fur babies. Because of my decades of experience working with and training my own dogs, there isn’t much I can’t do for them. I can crate them or give pills if you need me to. Probably wouldn’t be able to feed a raw diet though.
