House Sitting in Mead

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have always loved caring for animals. I’m patient, dependable, and very attentive to each pet’s individual needs and personality. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and temperaments, and I’m happy to stick to routines, administer basic care, go on walks, play, and provide lots of attention while you’re away. I understand how important it is to keep pet parents updated, so I’ll make sure you receive regular photos and communication for peace of mind. Whether your pet loves being active or prefers relaxing and cuddling, I’ll make sure they feel loved and cared for like they’re part of my own family. My schedule is very flexible and changes slightly depending on the month. In May, I have open availability. In June, I’m in class Tuesdays from 8 AM–3 PM and Wednesdays/Thursdays from 8 AM–11 AM. In July, I only have class on Mondays from 8 AM–11 AM. Outside of class, I have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care, including walks, playtime, feeding, check-ins, and overnight care depending on the booking. I’m available mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, and I always make sure pets stay on their normal routines and feel comfortable while their owners are away. I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. Whether I’m caring for pets on a walk or a in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions. I’m very attentive to pets’ behavior and needs, and I make sure they’re always supervised in a safe environment. I keep spaces clean, secure, and pet-friendly, and I’m careful when introducing pets to new surroundings or routines. I also understand how important communication is, so I provide regular updates and photos to help owners feel at ease while they’re away.

“Abby was a complete blessing to watch our pups for the week so we could enjoy some beach time. The pups are well fed, happy and content when we got home and the house looked fabulous too! So glad we chose Abby and Rover! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts ❤️💕”

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated dog sitter passionate about providing loving and attentive care for your furry friends. I understand that every dog has unique needs and routines, so I tailor my services to keep them happy, comfortable, and safe while you’re away. Whether it’s a quick visit or an extended stay, I’m flexible and reliable, ensuring your pet gets plenty of playtime, exercise, and cuddles. I’d love to hear about your dog’s personality and preferences—let’s chat and make sure your pup feels right at home with me! Tuesday and Thursday afternoons are my preferred times for meet and greets, but I’m always happy to be flexible and accommodate other times when needed. I start my day early with a 5am job and work another job at 10pm, but I always make sure to set aside quality time for your pup! When dog sitting at my place or yours, I take days off from my night job so I can be there most of the time. I’ll still work my morning job, but only until 1pm, ensuring I’m available to give your dog the care and attention they deserve. I have a dog too, so to keep both pets safe, I always make sure they have a proper introduction first. I’d never leave them alone together and will keep a close eye on your pup at all times! At night, we use a downstairs area connected to my bedroom for some quiet time. We also have a 4ft fenced backyard where your pup can run and play freely, plus plenty of toys to keep them entertained!

“Kayla is the best! Super responsive and flexible. One of our dogs is a big anxious boy (around 70 lbs) and she always knows how to keep him at ease. She is our go to sitter whenever we need one!”

“Gabrielle was amazing! I always worry about leaving our older dog, Bogey, he has anxiety issues and needs a lot of love and care. Gabby stayed in our home while my family and I were on vacation. She did an incredible job making sure Bogey went out when needed, she cleaned up any accidents he had, and the most important thing is she stayed the night in our home, which allowed Bogey to sleep in her bed and gave him comfort all night, as if I was home. I had zero concerns or issues while gone and I hope she’ll want to come back to watch Bogey for us again. Thank you so much!”

“Aimee did an amazing job. She too great care of Samson, sent me lots of photos, and gave me lots of updates while I was away. She took great care of our home, I highly recommend.”

“This is our second time having Tricia over to take care of the pups! She was brilliant as usual and we were very much at peace during our vacation!”

Arijit D.

“I had the absolute best experience with Eva as our dog sitter! She was incredibly communicative and kept us updated the entire time, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear from the start that she truly cared about my dogs and treated them like her own. She went above and beyond in every way, and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to trust with my pets. I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive sitter!”

“Kara did a wonderful job watching our dog Luna in our home while we were out of town. She was very responsive, sending us daily updates and photos which we loved! And she went above and beyond to make Luna feel comfortable during some over night storms that came through. We will definitely be hiring her again in the future!”

About: I've been caring for my own household pets since I was about 7 years old -- feeding, letting pets in and out, and providing quality time for as long as I can remember. We've always owned 2 dogs and 2 cats my whole life. Experienced in giving medicine, diaper care and helping with individual pet needs. Always the go-to petsitter for family and friends when needed. Currently off of college for the summer so I'm wide open for all of your pet needs! Available daily at any time until mid August, and then free on the weekends when the semester starts. My dogs at home are crate-trained, but I work with open house dogs as well as crates, letting them outside every few hours or so (as needed). Happily gives couch cuddles for pets as much as possible, and I follow food instructions per pet to a T, including medicine and special care instructions as needed.

“Calysta was fantastic! She was super communicative and very responsive when taking care of Girly. I especially trusted her care and responsibility. I will definitely be using her again!”

Nicole B.

“Jessica was amazing! She stayed at our house with our lab while we were on vacation. She sent many pictures and kept us updated on how things were going! She left the house very clean and even brought us flowers :) I highly recommend Jessica and look forward to having her stay again.”

Sarah M.

“Bailey was awesome with our pets! Lots of texts and calls and house was perfect upon our return!”

Stephanie B.

“Kendra is awesome! I have 2 very HIGH energy dogs that are super needy. Kendra did a great job taking care of them and making sure they got tons of attention and exercise. She even went above and beyond to come out and meet them before my booking and sent lots of pictures so I could see how much fun they were having. I had never used a dog sitter before and Kendra did a great job easing my mind. I will definitely be booking her again!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and grew up with two golden retrievers, so caring for pets has always come naturally to me. I’ve also dog sat for friends and family, helping with walking, feeding, playtime, and making sure their pets feel safe and loved while they’re away. I’m very patient, attentive, and understand that every dog has their own personality and needs. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or more calm and cuddly, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. I am currently part-time employed but if you let me know in advance I’m available anytime weekday or weekends! Dog sitting is something I look forward to - not as a chore, so I am fully able to spend long hours if needed! I always prioritize safety and follow each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions carefully. I make sure pets are secure on walks, supervised during play, and always in a safe environment. I often prefer caring for pets in their own home because it keeps them comfortable in a familiar space and helps reduce stress. I’m very respectful of clients’ homes, keep things clean, and provide regular updates so owners feel confident while they’re away.
