Serena's Sitting Service
Hi! I’m Serena. I have always loved animals - I used to tell people my dream job was someone who worked at a pet store. Now I am looking to get a little extra cash and animal cuddles on the side of my full time job. I work 40 hours a week (mostly from home, but I am in office Tuesdays and Wednesdays) but love getting out and walking, and heading to the dog park after work. I live in a townhome with relatively low foot traffic and PLENTY of green space to enjoy with lots of smells. I have a dog of my own who is very welcoming of Rover-guests, and stays home with my partner when I house sit.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Serena was great to work with! Very responsive to messages and texts and sent us several update photos even though she was only watching our pup for a night (which we loved!) We did a meet & greet beforehand and Serena’s dog Rocky was a perfect, calm companion for my somewhat anxious dog. Would highly recommend Serena as a sitter and we hope to be able to rebook with her in the future!

Our 2nd experience with Serena housesitting - we were very comfortable with having her taking care of our two doggies and our house!


Serena was my hero! My girl unexpectedly went into heat the night before drop off. I reached out to Serena to let her know and, bless her heart, she said she wouldn't leave my hanging! Soooo beyond thankful! 🙏🏼 HIGHLY recommended!

Serena was so great with our dog, Betty. She was very accommodating with our last minute need and kept our pup happy.

Serena was such a great sitter! She’s very communicative and was great with my dog, who is usually very nervous around strangers. Will definitely book again!

Serena is amazing, Chance is always excited to spend time with her which says everything about how comfortable and happy Chance is in her care. She’s also incredibly communicative — I always feel in the loop and never have to wonder how things are going. Highly recommend her to any pet parent looking for someone reliable and caring

Schedule
I work mostly from home, so I am pretty flexible! Whether it is a quick drop in during the week or a week-long stay, I can usually make it work.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I love to take our furry friends on lots of walks, whether that is smell-focused or length-focused, we can get all the enrichment necessary! Alternatively, I love to stay in and chill if that’s what’s needed for your furry friend.
Pets
A typical day
It depends on the dog! Whether they need plenty of walks and outdoor time, or need more mental stimulation than physical, I am happy to accommodate.
