House Sitting in Merrittstown

About: Hello! I have worked at a boarding kennel for 5 years and have volunteered at the Humane society for 2 years as well. I am comfortable with everything your pet brings to the table! I am proficient in understanding a dogs behavior, your dog will be in trusted hands. I am currently working remote on Wednesdays and Fridays and would love some more dog time! I am available throughout the days on these days. I am also available on weekends! I will be sure your dog has the most fun on our walks! I know my way around many types of harnesses/leashes/muzzles. I can’t wait to get my steps in with your dog!

“Megan was AMAZING with my fur babies!! This was our first time having someone we didn’t personally know watch them and I cannot say enough good things about her. She kept in contact with me the whole time we were gone and sent pictures everyday. She even crocheted a bandana for our pup. She put our minds at ease while we were away. I would definitely use her again.”

“Taylor house sat for us for a full 7 days and was so wonderful! Our two dogs just adore her and had the best time- she is kind, attentive, and you can tell she really loves the animals and prioritizes their quality of care. She even sent daily updates and photos! She has our highest recommendation- and we’ve already re-booked her for an upcoming trip! ☺️”

“Amber does a fantastic job watching Archie. She is punctual, communicates well, and has very good intuition about what is best for him. The weather has been very hot and she has appropriately gotten him time outside when able, then made him come inside before he gets too warm. I highly recommend booking her!”

Joe D.

“Wendi went above and beyond in her care for both my dog and my home. She is easily the top sitter in this area and I look forward to booking her again. My pets were well taken care of and very obviously at ease with her. She communicated with me they the whole stay and made me feel quite comfortable. I highly recommend Wendi for any pet sitting needs!”

Breanna N.

“Kristie did a great job helping our shy dog get acclimated to having a new sitter, kept us updated on how she was doing and sent great pictures. We appreciate her and can't wait for her to dog sit again in the future!”

About: I am a 6 cat and 1 dog daddy who would love to help you out with your pets in your time of need. I do a lot of rescue work so I am familiar with all breeds of dogs and cats. I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. I am a HUGE animal lover (well except maybe snakes and spiders but I still won't kill them) and am willing to work out a way that I can help you out with your pet(s). I have a very flexible work schedule as I share a job with my mom. So I can easily work around any schedule to make things happen. I currently have 6 cats and a recent foster fail dog (He was such a good boy he isn't going anywhere) and would like to help take care of your animals when needed. I am a pet lover, always have been. I do a lot of rescue (hence where my recent dog came from. We were doing a transportation rescue for a Boston Terrier from South Carolina and my pup was an add on the day of transport) and am comfortable with all breeds of dogs and cats. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask.

“Awesome even went on an extended walk, and when I got stuck for longer than expected she had no problem staying longer. Thanks so much.”

About: I’ve had animals of many kinds & species since the age of 4, my oldest pet was a 21 year old cockatiel & my eldest dog was 17 & I helped her raise multiple litters of puppies. So I have a variety of experience with different animals a lot with dogs seniors to puppies. Im currently mainly doing odd jobs. While I get things ready to start my own LLC. So I’m available for walks, drop ins & sittings most of the time especially with a decent amount of notice. Depends on the situation & whats available but d take them out to play in a fenced in yard to play with their favorite toy, give them their provided treats & all the ear scratches & belly rubs their little heart could handle.

About: I lost my beagle baby girl a year and a half ago, and I would love to give your pet the same care and attention as her. I have experience walking, nail trimming, administering medication, and assisting with mobility issues. I love all animals and would happily welcome yours into my home. I am looking to provide dog walking/quick visit services on weekdays after my work, and boarding services on weekends when I’m off. While in my care, your pet will have my diligent attention and care. I have a big yard for running and playing. It is not fenced, but I can utilize tethers to give them room to move around under supervision. I will make it my top priority to love your pet and follow your care instructions.

“I knew from the moment I met Kim that my Chewy was going to be in good hands and well taken care of. She is so sweet and patient when he was getting to know her. She sent pictures and sent daily updates while I was away! Chewy was happy when I returned. I will definitely rebook with Kim for future trips!”

“Savannah was wonderful with our sweet Lucy girl! She lives very close to us, within 10 minutes, so it was a convenient arrangement for everyone. She kept our puppy entertained and played with in our home and yard while we were away for a 3 day trip. Highly recommend her and look forward to having her sit for us again!”

“Molly is a wonderful dog sitter and I would highly recommend her. My puppies were very well taken care of and she even watered my flowers!!! I would definitely use her again.”

About: I grew up in a household with four dogs, three of them being Great Danes. Growing up with dogs, I have learned to train, walk, and take care of them. This is where my love for dogs came about. From the time I was 14 I was always taking care of and watching dogs for my neighbors, family, and friends. I have experience with dogs as small as Chihuahuas to as big as New Foundlands. I have watched and stayed with dogs for weeks at a time or just for a few hours after work. My parent's three Great Danes love going to the dog park, playing outside, and going on long walks. So, I have experience with caring for multiple large dogs at a time. My boyfriend and I own an Australian Shepherd, so I am also very familiar with high strung dogs who need to get more energy out than most. Along with my dogs, I have 15 chickens. If you ever need me to tend to your chickens while I am dog sitting, I can do this also! I am very dedicated to taking care of your pups as if they are my very own. I am a 1st grade teacher, so my best qualities are being flexible and patient with all of your pet needs! I am a full-time 1st grade teacher, so I have plenty of time on my summers and weekends off. During the school year, I am free after 3:30! I have stayed at family's and friend's homes for an extended period of time to watch their pups during the school year, so I am definitely available to do that as well. I have taken care of dogs who are fenced in or have acres to explore, and dogs who are free range or are crated in the home. With my parent's four dogs, they have an unfenced yard, so I have experience using shock/training collars to control them on their 7 acres.

“Sydney did a great job taking care of our pets and house. We came home to a clean, neat house and happy pets. I would definitely have her again!”

“Kimberly did an outstanding job taking care of my dog Koko while I was away. Koko loved her company and I came home to find him happy and relaxed. She followed his routine walks and feedings, just as I had asked her. She communicated with me often and sent me pictures. I couldn't have found a better pet sitter.”
