Dog Sitting in Middletown

About: While I’ve never had the chance to own a pet of my own, I’ve always loved animals and have been deeply involved in helping care for them. I’ve helped raise and care for two cats and three dogs within my close network of friends and family by taking part in everything from feeding, walking, training to playtime and building trust. Through these experiences, I’ve learned how to read animal behavior, respond with patience and calm energy, and understand the daily needs and routines that keep pets happy and healthy. I may not have had my “own” pet yet, but I’ve shown up for animals like they were my own and I am looking forward to caring for animals while I'm exploring new opportunities in my career. I'm currently available full-time in the DMV area [Mon-Sun] between the hours of 0500 & 1800. I'm willing to travel to build a customer base. Caring for animals comes natural for me. I have a keen sense of awareness and can anticipate and meet the needs of animals just through observing their breathing, posture, and reactions to environmental stimuli. I always travel with water, treats, and blankets to account for changes in weather or in case of emergency.

“Erika went above and beyond with taking care of our two kitties while we were traveling, communicating with us every step of the way, sending us adorable photos, keeping the cat areas clean, and even offering to bring in our mail. You can tell our cats felt so comfortable with her, even our one cat who is usually very skittish and always hides away from strangers. I would highly recommend booking Erika to care for your furry loved ones, and we will definitely book her again if we need a sitter in the future!”

About: I have a history of 5 years plus with dog grooming and boarding. I also house my own pets. Which are 2 dogs , 2cats and a turtle. It almost feels essential. Not just for daily motivation but also mental stimulation. Pairing up with a pet is therapeutic in itself and honestly just a rewarding feeling. Naturally I will adjust to what the setting of environments are around me. If the pet needs a mile walk I’ll do that. If a pet needs play time in the yard I’m outside too. Closed fences no problem I’ll roll around with fur kids !!

“David was so nice and dependable. I would 100% recommend and would use his services again when needed in the future. Thank you for taking good care of my cats.”

About: I have two dogs of my own, and I am quite experienced with handling dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I have received training on how to better understand the signals that dogs give us in order to determine how they are feeling (scared, excited, cautious, angry, etc.), and I have applied that training to my previous job at a doggy daycare countless times. I graduated college in December of 2016, and I’m still figuring out how to combine my Hospitality Management degree and my passion for caring for animals! I really enjoy dog walking because I find happiness in knowing that I provide comfort and peace of mind to those owners who aren’t able to be with their fur babies in the middle of the day!

“Kaila was amazing and we will definitely contact her again when we need someone attentive to watch over our fur babies. She has integrity, great communication, and understands it’s the small details that matter. Thanks Kaila!”

About: I’ve had my own pets all my life. From puppies to seniors we’ve taken care of every age. We can give medications if needed as well. Our yard is fenced in so they can have a romp and do zoomies whenever they want. We have one pup of our own. We can crate your pup as well if needed, but don’t require it. We allow pups to be on the couches and sleep in our bed. Between our schedules we are able for lots of time with pups for playing and potty breaks during the day and at night. Pups will Always have potty breaks every 2-3 hours. My yard is fenced in so outside play is always available. Our dog Bailey is very friendly and picks up on other dogs moods of wanting to play or not.

“She did an amazing job! Loved all the love and attention I for the animals that I could easily see come through in the photos. I’ll definitely use her next time I need to travel!”

About: I have taken care of my cat Lily since she was about 8 weeks old and now she’s 11 and still thriving. I had two french bulldog puppies that were also around 8 weeks old that I took care of as well. I now live with my boyfriend who has a 2 year old golden retriever and a 10 year old rescue lab mix who has trauma responses. Since I have moved in and lived here for about a year now he only sleeps in my room with me. I’m currently doing online college and am looking for something productive to do in my free time. I typically work on schoolwork in the mornings and am free the rest of the afternoon. I will care for your pets in any way that you ask me to. I understand how important pets are to families and that’s some pets have specific necessities or have a certain routine.
