Pet Sitting in Minerva

“We entrusted our two kittys with Abby while we were gone for 10 days. During that period, Abby kept us informed of her daily drop-in visits, including photos of our elusive critters. Upon our return, we found them in great condition, and they were not mad at us for leaving them with a then "stranger." Will definitely ask Abby to care for Larry & Bella the next time the need arises.”

About: I’m currently on my 9th rescue and most of my pets were adopted as seniors. Currently live with my dog Luna a pit bull, but I’ve had a number of breeds, and 2 cats Maximoose and Weeble. I’m open to puppies and kittens. I am able to administer meds, play with and keep your babies company, even overnight. I’m currently working part time and my schedule is very flexible. I live with my sister and she is able to comfort my baby when I’m needed for your fur baby. At the moment I cannot take pets into my home but I’m happy to do so in their own environment. I’m open to negotiating just about any kind of care. If I am unable to do something I will be up front with you about my comfort level. I want you to have what I have when I travel, a person that is dedicated to the health and happiness of your pet so you worry less and enjoy your time away knowing I got your back.

About: In my years of being a pet owner and pet sitter, I have become accustomed to learning dogs different cues, and allowing them to show when they are comfortable while still being in control. I also do simple grooming and most of all I will show your pet the love and care I would my own. I have my regular job that has a varying schedule and the rest I can dedicate to helping out with your four legged friends via walks or pet/house sitting. I have 6 cats and one dog in my home. All of which receive weekly grooming, regularly scheduled meals and appropriate vet care. I will do my absolute best to keep the routine you have set for your pets in your absence.

“Jessica did an amazing job dropping in and checking on our three little dogs for the day. She gave them all lots of attention and were very happy when we got home. She also sent great updates with photos. We will definitely use Jessica to watch our dogs again!”

About: I have been dog sitting for many years. I am available to walk dogs, house sit and do check ins on animals as well. I have cared for puppies and senior dogs. I have experience with large and small dogs alike so I can make accommodations for all types of dogs. My own dog was blind and had a strict diet so I am familiar with special needs a dog might have as well. I enjoy hiking, walks and spending time at home. I will ensure to follow any schedule that your dog might have and make sure that their time away from you is as ideal as possible. I am available to come to your home and stay with your dog while you are away. I am currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to take care of your dogs whenever is needed. I am available everyday of the week. I take care of others dogs as they are my own. I want this to be as easy as possible for both the owner and dog so I keep a close eye on the animals and follow all of the directions of care provided.

“WOW! Words simply cannot express how caring, attentive and responsive Pati is or how grateful I was to have this wonderful human being taking care of what matters most to me so I could go deep sea fishing. We are staying in our little travel trailer at a friend's and she understood the special circumstances of trying to keep it climate controlled, understood the concerns over his age and anxieties and especially understood the way walks and loading back into the trailer can be difficult for a old dog. Plus, she understood my own anxieties over leaving him and did everything she could to reassure from lots of photos and communications to making sure I knew she would be happy to come back if we got delayed or I was concerned. Who does that? Such a special, special person and a fabulous pet sitter who I can't recommend highly enough.”

About: I have had so many different animals from dogs, cats, peacock, chicken, hedgehogs, rabbits. I am an lovers and can love your animals too. Snakes I really don’t care for. I can work with any requirements. I prefer to come to your home to sit but it’s possible for me to bring your pet into my home as well. I have a yard, no fence, that dogs love to check out. I am also totally willing to come to your location. Dogs, cats, birds, or anything else. I can administer medication. I can clean up your dogs messes, or try.

About: Hi! You can call me Bee, and my whole life I have been passionate about animals of all shapes and sizes. In my youth I helped my Mom with overnight pet sitting. As an adult I spent 2 years in management with Petco where I was intimately involved in all the areas of animal care including administering medication and dog bathing. Additionally, I have many years of experience with caring for my own pets as well as helping my friends and family with their pets. I work as an independent contractor and can adjust my schedule around all of your pet's needs. I value making your pet feel at home and loved during their entire stay. My family lives in an adorable farmhouse and we would love to have your fur baby come stay with us for a unique experience enjoying the natural environment we have available right outside our doorstep. Your loved one will be treated as one of our own alongside my 12 year old cat, 8 month old kitten, and a 3 year old Iguana (who has his own enclosure). Your pet will also enjoy the smells of farm animals that stay on the property, including sheep and horses. You can trust that your pet will have all of their needs met no matter how much or how little adventure they can handle while staying with us. Dedicated areas can be blocked or fenced of to accommodate all of your pets needs depending on their level of socialization. Private one on one time including bathing and walks can be arranged or play with friendly neighbor dogs who frequent the property can be arranged as well if that is something your pet would benefit from. We maintain a clean and calm environment inside of our home with a warm wood stove they can lay by and large windows they can watch the various wildlife from; again providing as much or as little socialization as they need. If I will be visiting your home for walks or overnight sitting I would spend some time observing their behaviors and understanding their areas and what they like. In any situation your pet will recieve all of the love and belly rubs they want and need. We can't wait to meet you!

About: Owner of a Siberian husky for over a decade. Have trained her since she was a puppy. She is now a senior and requires minimal walks compared to when she was young. She gets along with cats really well and is around farm animals frequently. Working 40 hours a week while managing pet care is essential, I am able to work around my schedule as fit for the animal's needs. Please inform me if any needs are requested to make sure everything, like fresh water, is taken care of. I offer care at the clients home, which I have experience in. I am usually in the same room as my pets, so I will often be in the same area with your pet while they are under supervision. Please inform me at least a day in advance for booking.

About: I have 3 medium breed dogs(a lab, 2 collies). I love dogs and would love to take care of yours! I can visit in the mornings or later evenings. I’m avaiable most weekends during the day. On weekdays, I will be available during the morning hours before 11pm. If you would like me to pet sit, I’m avilable overnight to stay or visit mutilple times a day. I’ve been dog sitting and an owner for over 5 years. I have experience with older dog care and will be willing to take care of dogs with special needs and dietary issues. big breeds and multiple dogs are welcome. I will be willing to provide treats and toys for dogs in my care. I live out in the country so I have tons of free time to spend with my animals in a calm and relaxing environment and we do our best to soak up the sun this summer. I really enjoy meeting new animals and I plan on treating them like my own fur babies I have at home! Treats, attention, and play time!

About: Hi! My name is Morgan. I genuinely love animals and have a huge heart. I’ve cared for many pets over my lifetime; both my own pets and others’. My own pets have included, labradors, a border collie, a Shepard mix, and 7 cats. I have worked with search dogs as a part of professional search and rescue team in Texas and am aware of positive reinforcement training techniques (treats and toys). When I was a teen I worked at disabled veterans winter sports clinics in Colorado as volunteer, taking care of service dogs while the veterans participated in activities. In addition, I have two bark box subscriptions…for my friends’ dogs. I truly love cats. I love spending time with them, and I understand that each cat is unique and has unique needs. I’ve had 7 cats…all of which had different personalities, likes/dislikes, and levels of comfort with humans and other animals. I can provide your kitty with plenty of love and affection, playtime…or just give them the space they need and provide them with simple care and safety. Whether your kitty is a “one brain cell orange”, a fluffy friendly tuxedo, a sassy “void” black cat…I can love and care for any kitty out there! Thank you for considering me to care for your pet! My prices reflect the level of care your pet receives. I am cautious, kind, and follow all instructions. I will comfort your pet if they need it, play with them (if they want), and I will send you photos and updates throughout the day. I have seen cheaper prices offered here, and it being such a small community, I know some of these pet sitters personally and their level of care is much lower than what I offer. I work full time but am only in the office one day a week so I have a flexible schedule to care for animals in your home, or take your pet for a walk. The security and safety of your pet is of utmost importance to me. When I care for pets in your home I follow your instructions exactly to provide the safe, consistent, loving care for your pet in your home.

About: I strive to be as reliable as a person can be and trustworthy in all my life. I have experience with a local Veterinarian and I am knowledgeable about pet care. I am extremely comfortable with all breeds of dogs and cats, experienced working with little tiny dogs and large dogs of all ages, and I've even working with the local K9 Unit. I love helping people and pets in a stress free environment for both Owner and Pet. Please consider me for caring for your pets. I also love caring for rabbits, chickens, sheep, goats, horses, and cattle if needed. Please call or email me anytime. I am available weekdays and weekends. I look forward to hearing from anyone interested in my services. I own and run my own business so I have that schedule built around my dogs schedules. All my animals have a daily care refuting and I am home a lot. I follow instructions that I always request from clients. Making sure I have the information I need to have a safe booking. I also like to make them their own safe area in my home. If they are at their own home they already have their comfort area.

“I felt so much better visiting family over the holidays with Jenna keeping an eye on my cat. She was an excellent communicator and did a great job of keeping Lu some company.”

About: I absolutely love dogs ! They truly are man’s best friend till the end. I have two dogs of my own , whom I love very much ! I have experience in dog sitting as well as dog walking and I am passionate about providing good care and excited to meet new pups! I fit pet care into my day/week routine because I have two dogs of my own. One is a pit bull and another is a boarder collie so to say they need care is an understatement. They have the upmost energy. I will play with them and wear them out so they get a good nights sleep. With that being said we walk, hike, run, go to the beach, play fetch , etc. as much as we can. I treat my puppies very kindly , if not they’re quite spoiled. 😉 I care very deeply about animals and I aim to help when I can !

About: Since childhood I have been caretakers to dogs, cats, hamsters and even fish. I even saved my parents cats life using a cpr technique used on infants. I have been a door dash driver for years as it easily fits into my lifestyle, recently adding grub hub and instacart to my resume. This will fit perfectly into my schedule. I live on property with my family on about an acre of fenced yard very dog friendly. I let my dog have free reign of the property. I would care for your animal as you specify and with great attention to detail.

About: I have had dogs of varied sizes, temperaments, and ages throughout my life from pug/shitzus, to chow chows, to Goldens, and have loved them all. I am currently working part-time from home, so my availability to watch and care for dogs is very flexible and abundant. Including weekends and most holidays. My home is close to town country living. I am on 6 acres with very large fenced fields and a peaceful road to walk and wooded trails to explore close by. I have a 7 year old Golden Retriever that gets along well with other dogs, but also has a place to stay if your dog needs one-on-one attention.

“Jessica has proven herself again and again as a trusted partner and friend, to creature and human alike. She is an effective communicator and a steady hand that I trust implicitly. We have used her pet sitting many times and are so grateful to have her back whenever we have to be away from home.”

“Lily is awesome! She takes great care of Shy and Shy loves her. I always know Shy is in good hands when Lily is watching her. Lily keeps me updated with pictures and texts. She's 100 percent reliable and professional. I highly recommend Lily and grateful to have her watch Shy.”

“Amazing job! Love how communicative she is. All my pets and plants look well taken care of while we were gone.”
