House Sitting Milton

“Paige did such an amazing job taking care of our girls and our home while we were away. She displayed excellent professionalism at our meet and greet and the girls quickly warmed up to her. She maintained excellent communication by providing multiple updates with pictures and a video!”

“We are so pleased with the experience we had with Chelsea. She was great about keeping us informed about how our pups were doing. She texted us and sent us pictures every day while we were out of town. We would definitely recommend Chelsea for anyone looking for someone to care for their pups.”

About: I have had many dogs and cared for many others. It is a true labor of love for me and something I really love doing. I’m retired so my schedule is super flexible. Whatever your schedule I can probably accommodate it. Give me a try and let’s see if we can work it out. I love them but I don’t board dogs (sorry). Couldn’t negotiate that successfully with my wife. I do love spending time with them on walks or in your home.

“"We had the pleasure of having Carolyn as our pet sitter, and she was absolutely outstanding! From the moment she arrived, our pets, including our usually shy one, were drawn to her warmth and affection. They quickly became comfortable and were even snuggling with her in no time. Carolyn was incredibly attentive, taking them on several enjoyable walks each day, which they absolutely loved. Additionally, she went above and beyond by keeping our home spotlessly clean, leaving it in pristine condition upon our return. We highly recommend Carolyn to anyone in need of a reliable, caring, and exceptional pet sitter. She truly cares for your pets as if they were her own”

About: I have always been a pet lover ever since I can remember! Growing up, my family has had golden retrievers, cocker spaniels, shih tzus, and my family now has a labradoodle, but I absolutely love all dogs! My sister has also had pet bunnies that are the cutest. I would love to have a dog right now, but at the moment I would love to help others with their pet sitting needs. Please reach out! I’m a high school teacher, so I’m currently looking to pet sit only at clients’ homes mainly on weekends or nights during the week! I provide a safe, loving, and reliable environment by following each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care instructions. When I am caring for a pet at a client’s home, I make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision while keeping their environment clean and secure. I also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident knowing their pet is happy and well cared for!

“Krose had a great day with Chelsea! Chelsea arrived early with a goodie bag with treats and a toy. We appreciated the photos throughout the day. We were happy to see he was relaxed when we arrived home. We would definitely use Chelsea again!”

About: Ive had dogs in my family ever since I was a kid. I have a 10 year old pit mix, a 13 year old husky, and a 1 year old husky, so I know how to care for multiple dogs at once and dogs of all ages, including puppies. I will care for your dog the way you would. I will take them on as many walks as youd like, and treat them as if they were my own. I get along very well with all dogs and I have plenty of experience. I dont trust my dog with just anybody, so I know how important it is to build that trust with your dog and to not change their comfortability and routine. I work part time at nights, so I am free for as many walks or as much play time as needed! When Im with your dog, it will always be my first priority! I can go on as many walks as needed, depending on the age and activity level of your dog. I have experience crate training my own dog if you need me to do that. I will care for your dog the same way as if youve never left.

About: I’ve spent my entire life around dogs, and have helped care for my family’s four legged friends for as long as I can remember. I’m no stranger to walking, feeding and cleaning up after dogs of all shapes and sizes. As a teenager, my neighbors and friends entrusted me to care for their pets. Whether they were going to be home from work late and needed someone to walk their dog or were going out of town for a weekend, I was there to help. No matter your dog’s age, size or energy level, I am confident I can provide the best possible care for them! I am currently working remotely so I am available to care for your pups at any hour of any day! From early mornings to late nights, I will be there. At home, I have a fenced in yard where my dogs are able to run and play free, but I also make sure they get plenty of leash walks around the neighborhood. Regardless of your home/ yard’s set up I can ensure your pup will get the best possible care.

“She was great and my dogs loved her!”

Cathleen T.

“This was the first time Lydia watched my 3 pups. She is very nice and I felt comfortable at the meet and greet. I knew she would take great care of them. She gave updates and assured me they were fine. My female dog was struggling when I first left , Lydia gave her extra love. Now that I am home, I think my Bailey is missing Lydia. I will definitely reach out to her in the future.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life! We’ve had cats and reptiles before as well! I’ve dog sat for the past year now for a family every now and again when they need me! I’ve done it for a whole week or just a night out! Feeding, letting outside, walks, playing and of course some cuddling and pets! House sitting is obviously involved and I am ready for whatever you need me to do around the house while you are gone! I can’t wait to meet you and you’re animal friend! I’m available any weekday anytime around 8am-6pm except on Tuesdays I need to be home by 5pm! Weekends would need a heads up and could only work until 2pm OR could only work at night! I will not be boarding animals at my house! I do not have the facilities for that and also have 3 crazy beagles at home who would not appreciate another animal in the house!

About: Hi, I’m Jess! I bring a unique, holistic approach to pet care that focuses on keeping your four-legged family members safe, calm, and completely cared for. Through my business, Salt & Soulistics, I also practice as a Canine Somatic Practitioner, Ayurvedic Animal Wellness Consultant, and Animal Reiki Energy Worker. This means I don't just walk your dog—I tune into their energy, monitor their comfort levels, and ensure that both their physical and emotional well-being are prioritized while you're away. Whether your pup needs a high-energy stroll, a patient and gentle walk for an older or anxious pet, or specialized attention, I adapt to their individual personality and pace. Why choose me to care for your best friend? • Advanced Animal Care Training: I am trained in Canine First Aid & Pathology, Canine Massage, and Palliative/Hospice Care. If your dog has medical complexities, mobility challenges, or requires specific medication schedules, they are in highly capable hands. • Nervous System Regulation: Using simple somatic and energy-work techniques, I specialize in helping anxious, hyperactive, or easily stressed dogs find a sense of safety, calm, and grounding. • Deep Lifelong Experience: Beyond my professional holistic certifications, I am a lifelong animal lover and a dedicated pet parent myself. I understand the trust it takes to leave your baby in someone else's hands, and I treat every client's dog with the same fierce loyalty, kindness, and meticulous care that I give my own. I can't wait to meet your pup and provide them with a soulful, happy, and refreshing break in their day! Pet care isn't just something I squeeze into my day, it is the central focus of my daily routine. As a holistic pet health concierge running my own practice, my schedule is intentionally structured around the well-being of the animals in my care. Because I work independently, I have the ultimate flexibility to prioritize your pup's routine exactly when they need it most. Here is how pet care seamlessly integrates into my weekly life: • Open Daily Availability: I am fully dedicated to housecalls and pet care 7 days a week, from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM. Whether your dog needs an early morning wake-up stroll, a midday wellness break, or dinner-hour companionship, I am reliably available during peak care windows. • Dedicated Midday Windows: My daily rhythm is built around giving pups a refreshing, soulful break right when the workday gets long. I structurally reserve my midday blocks for active dog walking, sensory strolls, and custom wellness check-ins. • Grounded & Paced Bookings: I never overbook my days. I structure my schedule to include plenty of buffer time between visits. This ensures I never have to rush through a walk and can fully dedicate my focus, energy, and somatic grounding techniques to your dog without watching the clock. • Localized Travel Routine: My service routine takes me all around Delmarva and the beach areas. Because I am consistently on the road for home visits, fitting your pup into my daily transit circle is a natural, seamless part of my neighborhood routine. Whether you need a recurring weekly walking schedule or occasional daytime check-ins, your best friend will always step into a calm, reliable, and entirely dedicated routine. Because I care for your pets exclusively in the comfort of your own home, maintaining a secure, familiar, and low stress environment is my highest priority. I understand that leaving your pet requires immense trust. I design my housecall services to preserve your home’s security while giving your dog a meticulously safe and grounding experience. Here is exactly how I ensure safety and build trust during every home visit: • Meticulous Medical & Care Plan Adherence: If your dog requires complex medication schedules, strict handling protocols, or specialized mobility care, I handle it with precision. With advanced training in Canine First Aid & Pathology, Canine Massage, and Palliative/Hospice Care, I have deep experience monitoring vital comfort signals, handling precise medicine regimens, and managing physically fragile or medically complex pets. • Proactive Home Security Protocols: I respect your space. When entering and leaving, I follow strict door locking protocols to prevent escape artists from slipping out. I ensure your home stays fully secure before, during, and after my visit, and I am hypervigilant about keeping doors locked tightly if any unexpected local deliveries or disruptions happen while I am there. • Individualized, Distraction-Free Walks: I only offer private, one-on-one sessions tailored directly to your pup's unique pace and needs. I completely avoid distracting environments like crowded dog parks or group walks with unfamiliar animals. This strict personalized focus eliminates external stressors and keeps our entire outing completely safe and controlled. • Continuous Real-Time Communication: I believe that proactive updates build true peace of mind. You will receive detailed updates from every housecall, including real-time text check-ins, fun photos, and specific tracking details about how your pup's session went, what their energy levels looked like, and how they responded to their routine. • Custom Environment Adjustments: Before I leave, I make sure your pup is completely settled back into their safe zone. Whether that means refreshing their fresh water bowl, setting up interactive brain/play puzzles, or using gentle, trauma-informed somatic techniques to ground their nervous system, I leave them calm, happy, and relaxed.

About: I grew up with dogs and have always considered them part of the family. Until last year, I cared for my own dog, Tank, who passed away at 14. Caring for him through his senior years taught me the value of patience, close observation, and keeping a pet’s routine as comfortable and consistent as possible. Tank occasionally had seizures, which gave me firsthand experience remaining calm, reducing stimulation, helping keep a dog safe from injury, and closely monitoring them while following an owner’s or veterinarian’s instructions. I understand that every pet has their own needs, personality, routines, and comfort level. I’ve also dog sat for family members and truly enjoy making sure their pets receive dependable care, affection, exercise, and companionship while they are away. I’m detail-oriented and will follow your instructions closely. Feeding schedules, walking routines, medications, and house rules to favorite toys, training cues, and any special needs, your pet will feel safe, loved, and cared for in your absence. I work part-time as a caregiver for a person with a disability, a role that has strengthened my patience, reliability, and attention to individual routines and needs. Because my schedule is flexible, I can accommodate a wide range of pet-care routines, visit times, and scheduling needs. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I focus on keeping their routine safe, comfortable, and as familiar as possible. At my home, I have a yard available for regular bathroom breaks and a small park nearby for daily walks, exercise, and fresh air. I do not have any pets living with me full-time. From time to time, I care for my mother’s friendly French Bulldog, Vinny, who enjoys being around other dogs. I will always communicate in advance if another dog may be present and will make sure introductions are handled slowly, safely, and according to your pet’s comfort level. In a client’s home, I will follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, walks, playtime, medications, house rules, and any special routines or needs. My goal is to provide dependable, detail-oriented care that helps your pet feel secure and well cared for while you are away.

About: Building Trust with Pets • Peace of Mind for Their People • Loving • Reliable • Personalized • Attentive • Compassionate • Trustworthy • Gentle • Patient • Experienced • Enriching • Dependable • Safe • Professional • Nurturing • Heartfelt Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I intentionally schedule my days to provide dependable visits, walks, playtime, feeding, medication (if needed), and plenty of one-on-one attention. I enjoy staying active, so walks and outdoor time are something I genuinely look forward to. I treat every pet like a member of my own family and make sure they receive consistent, loving care while you’re away. I care for pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable and their routine stays consistent. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully for feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, medications, and any special needs. I also spend quality time providing companionship, affection, and enrichment—not just completing a checklist. During each visit, I make sure the home is secure, clean up after the pet, and send updates with photos so owners know their pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
