House Sitting Maidens

“Laura was communicative and wonderful! She gave me updates throughout the day and seemed to put great care into making sure my two dogs were comfortable and happy while I was away.”

About: I’ve pet sit for neighbors, family and friends since I’ve been able to drive. I have some pets that I have been watching for multiple years. I currently work full time but it is flexible. I can let you dog out before and after work, and potentially during my lunch break if you are nearby! I can easily crate your dog and easily put them on a leash and take them on walks. If you have strict rules with your pet, I will try my hardest to enforce your rules.

“Kristen was wonderful! She took excellent care of Pepper and Merlin while we were away. She was attentive to their routines, followed all medication instructions, and made sure they received plenty of attention and quality time. Communication was great throughout, and she kept me informed, which gave me peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. She even went above and beyond by bringing in packages that arrived while we were away. Most importantly, I came home to two happy pups! I would absolutely book with Kristen again and highly recommend her!”

“I couldn’t be happier with Tiffany! She did an amazing job taking care of our pups while we were away — they were happy, relaxed, and clearly loved all the attention and care she gave them. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind. The house was spotless when we got back, and everything was exactly as we left it. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and attentive with pets!”

About: I’ve been asked by many coworkers and friends to pet sit for them! I just thru hiked the AT this summer, so I’m willing to walk as far as your dog wants to. I grew up with an energetic German Shepherd named Comet. I am the most interested in pet sitting in the pet’s home environment. I just finished the Appalachian Trail this September, so I currently have a flexible schedule while job hunting. I can give pets exercise 2-3 times a day. In previous times I’ve pet sit, I’ve adapted to the pet’s normal routine to make them more comfortable while separated from their family! I try to read the needs of the pet and attend to that.

“Madelaine was great to work with. She was responsive to my messages and to the needs of our dogs, one of whom is a senior. They enjoyed her company and I had peace of mind on my trip!”

About: Hello! My name is McKenzie! I’m a pre-med student and animal lover looking to earn some extra funds for medical school. I’ve had my own dog since he was a puppy (he's now 8 years old!). Because he has a daily medication schedule, I am experienced and comfortable handling any medical or dietary needs your dog might have. I am currently home full time and am available for daily drop ins or house sittings when needed! I am also flexible and will accept last minute bookings for no additional costs from my end. I’m currently working part time online so I will have plenty of time to play with your puppies and check in on them! I am available everyday at any time since I work online. I ensure pet safety through constant supervision, secure spaces, and by following your specific guidelines. I will take them on daily walks and doggy parks (if you wish for the parks).

“I would definitely recommend Rochelle as a Star Sitter. This was our first time using Rover or leaving our two very spoiled fur babies. Rochelle was great in leading the way with questions and organization which was reassuring that she wanted to keep our girls routine and care. Pictures and communication was consistent and reassuring. Additionally Rochelle agreed to the challenge of overseeing our chickens and ducks which was a huge bonus! Rochelle stayed at our house which was also a bonus knowing that our girls, Daisy & Luna, would be at home to reduce the separation anxiety. She did an amazing job up-keeping everything which is no easy task with two fur babies in and out of the house in the country! Thank you Rochelle for a great experience, taking such loving care of my girls, and the reassurance that they were loved and cared for while I traveled!♥️”

“Vanessa was wonderful! She took great care of our cats (and hummingbirds) and our house. She was in constant contact letting us know how our girls were doing and sent plenty of pictures which we loved. We will definitely reach out to her again when we need her services”

About: I am a young professional with two orange cats of my own! I've been watching animals for my family, friends, and neighbors since I was a kid; I love cats and dogs of all colors, breeds, shapes, and sizes. I'm currently between jobs, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups or satisfy your unique care needs! I'm lucky to have a flexible schedule, so I strive to accommodate others' schedules to the best of my ability. Safety is paramount for me. As a pet-owner myself, I strive to meet the needs of each pet without putting them at risk of harm or distress.

“Alexandra was amazing!! She treated our fur babies like her own. Just being around her you can tell she genuinely LOVES animals!! We will most definitely be using her services again!!!”

About: I'm a life-long dog lover that will provide great care to your dog! I live in a great pet-friendly neighborhood, with a dog park nearby. My family has always had dogs, growing up - so I'm very comfortable around them. If I'm house sitting, know that your dog and I will be taking several walks to get some exercise and having many playing sessions! Also, I don't think I've met one dog that didn't like me :). Hope to hear from you soon and I look forward to meeting your dog!

About: I’ve had animals in my house since I was born! I’ve had dogs of all shapes and sizes. I’ve even had fish, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, and ferrets. Needless to say, I truly love animals so much (maybe even more than humans). I turn into a full on mom when any animal comes my way. I’ve had experience with taking care and training animals since I was 12. All in all, taking care of your lil ones while you’re away is not just a vacation for you, it’s a vacation for me as well. Expect to come home to healthy, relaxed, and happy lil guys and girls! I’m currently a part time student who is also working part time sooo I have a lot of free time on my hands! I’m available on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I am currently only accepting boarding in the client’s home due to my own dog’s training. I will care for pets in my client’s home exactly as instructed by them. I will be able to stay with them all day, let them out every hour or so, feed them when scheduled, take them on walks, have play time, and cozy time as well.

“Andrew was wonderful with our Mega Dane , Max and older girl, Bella. He was dependable and cognizant of the our fur babies’ needs. The house was neat and straight on our return. The pups enjoyed their activities with him and were disappointed when he didn’t show up the next day! Max runs to the door when I ask where’s Andrew! It was a very positive experience and we will definitely ask for his help again. Thank you Andrew.”
