House Sitting in Martinsville

“My name is Brittany and I’ve known and have been good friends with Nicole for the past nine years. She has always been responsible and hardworking. Ever since she was in high school, she learned to manage her time accordingly so that she could juggle both school and work. About two years ago, she adopted a puppy who she loves and cares for. Dogs, especially when they are puppies, require a lot of attention and patience. The moment Nicole brought him home, she took no time to make him feel like home. She also dedicated as much time needed to train him and ensured that he felt loved and cared for. Nicole would make a great pet caregiver as her patience and love for animals will contribute greatly towards fulfilling the responsibilities needed for this position.”

“Anna is one of the biggest animal lovers ever. She is a born equestrian at heart, but she loves all types of pets. I have a black cat who is the biggest sweetheart, and whenever I leave my house for extended periods of time, Anna volunteers herself to look after my cat, who she adores and loves. My cat loves Anna and Anna takes such good care of her! Anna is so playful, nurturing, careful, and sweet around my cat. I really appreciate the amount of care that Anna undertakes when dealing with my cat and other animals. She is an amazing caregiver and makes sure everyone's needs are met.”

“Courtney took great care of Ava! I was nervous leaving my newly adopted senior dog for the first time but”

“Trisha was great with her communication while she housesat with our puppy when we were away for a week. She was patient and attentive to his needs. She was also flexible with helping him be comfortable during a power outage. We would gladly use her again in the future.”

“Stacey was great with our senior cat! we were gone for almost two weeks and really wanted someone to stay at our apartment to keep and eye on him as he has some health issues. Stacey took great care of him, sent us daily updates and went above and beyond to make sure he was eating, healthy and happy. I can’t recommend Stacey enough!! We will definitely be rebooking in the future!”

“Stephanie has been a friend of mine for about 20 years! She is thoughtful, responsible, and a huge pet lover. I would trust Stephanie with many things, especially dog walking or sitting. She has watched my own two pups & has been so loving and responsible with them. ML”

“2nd time using Tiaesha and I will use her without hesitation again and again. One of my dogs always is hesitant at first but Tiaesha knows exactly how to get her to warm up to her and they are best friends from there after.”

“Claire was great with our shy rescue dog. He became comfortable with her really quickly. She took good care of our pup and our house when we were gone for 3 days. Great communicator! I would recommend her highly.”

“Amazing! Lauren took such good care of my fur babies while I was gone, and gave me peace of mind knowing someone trustworthy was home with them!”

“Lana was communicative and great with our puppy Penny. She sent pictures throughout the 3 days she baby sat and was very flexible with our timing. She helped make our wedding weekend stress free because I knew Penny was in good hands!”

“A million stars!! Sarah, you’re an angel! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girl!”

“I have known Stacy for many years and am 100% confident she will be a terrific caregiver. She is caring and loving with our own two dogs, and has often cared for dogs of friends when they are out of town. She has been a "dog person" since I've known her , and I recommend her without any reservation whatsoever.”

“Gabriella took care of my two pups while I was away. She sent me updates and pictures daily and was super responsive which I appreciate! They were very happy and relaxed when I got back so I know they were in good hands. Thanks again Gabriella! ?”

“Pamela loves to care for all animals, not just one in particular. She loves to hold and take extra special care of each and every animal on this planet. She has been like this since she was little. Something about her that animals gravitate towards and they all love her. She always is tentative to what the pet needs, if it's to go out, eat, play, drink or just sit there and relax the pet, she's always there and answers their needs immediately. You can rest assure that if you're on vacation, your pet will be on vacation too, as she will make sure they have the time of their lives while you are too.”

About: Before my dog passed away growing up I would take care of him i would feed him take him on walks, bath him and of course give him love and affection, i've taken care of my grandparents cats when they would go away for vacation i would stay over night as well, i’ve taken my boyfriends dog on walks when i wouldn’t work and i would feed her as well, i also have a pet chinchilla where i clean the have for him, feed him and give him all the basic necessities. so i’m currently working part time at a family owned Italian restaurant as a server in basking ridge new jersey, but I’m looking to test the waters with dog sitting to see if i like and if i do i’m looking to do it full time. For my clients home of course i would give the dog some time to warm up to me if they are shy , if my clients have a set schedule for the dog of course i would strictly follow that schedule that would be given to me

“Jaden is one of those people that are "animal" people, ones that pet every animal that crosses their path. That being said, she's cared for my fur-baby a number of times and is always treats him with love and activity. He always comes back happy, tail wagging, and tired :D. Jaden is a sweetheart and will care for you pet as if it were her own child.”

About: Volunteered as a foster parent for many years, fostering over 80 kittens/cats. Recently fostered a rescue which I then adopted. I can calm the most anxious cats and will even trim their nails. I am an avid walker and you can count on me to give your dog great exercise. I have trained my own puppy and have experience with young energetic dogs. I am currently at home with some remote work. I teach 3 45 minute exercise classes at my local gym on Monday, Thursday and Friday mornings. I have an enclosed deck and can also crate a dog or cat. I have a dedicated enclosed room that is puppy/dog proof where dogs can play freely. I love to walk dogs in many locations, including parks, neighborhoods and downtown Somerville.

“Thank you Kate for taking such great care of our Chloe. Kate was amazing, and we booked her a day before our event, so kudos for being so caring and thoughtful. Her resume definitely speaks for itself, never seen a sitter with such great ratings. Definitely will be booking her in the near future. See you soon!”

“Brandon is one of the most caring, trusting and lovable people that I know. He is such a good person around dogs, he will give the absolute best care to any dog that comes his way and the proof is evident in how good he took care of his own fur baby for the small time he had her. I’m sure he will provide the outmost care for your fur babies and makes his household their home away from home.”

“Melissa was great with Benny! She kept in touch with updates and photos of them having fun and Benny loves her! I will definitely be reaching out to Melissa again and recommend her services to others.”
