House Sitting in Merrifield

“Thanks for taking care of Jazzy Belle and Karl. You are probably an expert at putting in eye drops and giving meds now. Jazzy is a handful. Thanks for all the pictures too.”

“Dawn sat with our dog, Sammy 2 nights in a row. She arrived early both nights. She sent me photos on both nights. She was very personable & friendly. You could tell she really loves dogs. Our Sammy took to her right away. Several photos were of him sitting on the recliner with her. I would definitely use her again when we come back to this area next year.”

“Elizabeth was awesome with our pups. We have little ones that need medications and lots of TLC and she handled them wonderfully. They love her and we will definitely have Elizabeth as a sitter in the future. She left our home sparkling clean and sent us daily updates which we so appreciated!”

About: I have loved and taken care of animals since i could walk, i've grown up with animals of all kinds including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, reptiles and chickens. I started my professional care of animals at 15 when I worked as an animal care specialist at an animal shelter. I previously worked as a veterinary assistant for a year and a half, worked at a doggy daycare for a short time when I lived in Fargo to attend NDSU. I have moved back to the BLA to work at a vet clinic full time and switched to online school. I look forward to connecting and taking care of your furry (or not so furry ;)) family member!!! I work full time as a veterinary assistant during the week so care fits in during off days, weekends, evenings and when I am not running around with my crazy animals! :) They will be given all of the attention and love that they could ever want or need. I love cuddling on the couch or playing tug of war, whatever energy level your pet is we will get along :)

“Ruby was great! We’ve never been away from our dog for more than two days but he seemed very happy when we got back! She was quick to respond to our messages and keep us updated on how he was doing.”

“Eric was a great sitter for our two dogs at our home. He was very responsive, sent pictures while we were away and flexible with our requests. I look forward to using Eric again!”

“Melissa went far beyond expectations! She came to my home a few days before to meet my old puggle and I. Right away, I knew she was the right fit. Warm, friendly, very communicative and understanding of my older dog and patient with his little quirks. After talking and showing her around, I had no hesitation trusting Melissa with my home and my little world with 4 paws. She sent messages with photos letting me know she was handling his separation anxiety with patience, some humor and of course, treats! She is a true animal lover with a lot of knowledge of different breeds and older dog behaviors. I would highly recommend Melissa! Kind, dependable, responsible and overall really good person! It’s not easy for me to leave my little old man, even for one night, but will not hesitate to hire her again. Thank you Melissa! Brutus adored you.”

About: I have 24 hour pets access it’s hard to transport pets across the United States and take care of the pets needs and make sure that they stay healthy and well take care of them I work for 10 hour days and they’re basically all evening shift times until early in the morning, but I have three days off during the week time to help take care of your animals and pets I took care of my pets like they’re my own kids. I have freshwater and fresh food that I will give them every day. Play with him. Make him feel welcomed take him out to the bathroom at least as much as they need to go outside to go to the bathroom, specially the dogs, the cats I have plenty of kitty litter and pans to take care of, and I will not let him outside

About: I’ve worked with dogs for the past 7 years of my career. Have done dog sitting for the last 4 years. My current job is with animals. Can’t wait to meet your fur babies! I work full time but have one day off a week and have weekends off. Will stay in your house and can take them hiking or for walks. I prefer to care for your pets in your home where they are most comfortable in their environment. Take them for walks and play with them however they like.

“Bella has a great way with dogs. She treated Daisy like her own, and Daisy took to her right away. Highly recommend.”

About: I have had at least one dog to take care of since I was 10 years old, and my extended family has always had numerous additional dogs. I feed, give water to, and entertain multiple dogs, of multiple sizes, on a daily basis. I have been responsible for a variety of breeds, as well as both indoor dogs and outdoor farm dogs. Raising sheep and working on horse/cattle farms throughout my middle and high school years has taught me how to care for all kinds of animals, big and small. I am currently waiting to ship out for Navy boot camp, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m available most days of the week. If overnight care is needed, my roommates are able to look after my dogs, which allows me to stay with pets for extended periods when required. I care for pets based on what they need most. Sometimes that means simply being there to keep them company, letting them out, feeding them, and spending time playing or relaxing with them. Other times it can mean giving a little extra attention and monitoring for pets who need more care.

About: I currently have a German Shepherd myself, trained her from a puppy, she is 2 yrs old now. I have also helped my mom raise a couple of her dogs she has had over the years. Helped family and friends with their pets when needed as well. I love taking care of animals and would love to help you make sure your pets are well taken care of and love them like my own. I will walk, bathe if needed, play/exercise your pet as well. If needed I could also train your animals some obedience as well. Please ir you have any other questions don't hesitate to message me with any of your needs. I would love to help out as much as I can.
