House Sitting Nelsonville

“Jordan was a fantastic sitter and care-taker for my girls. Plenty of walks, love, and snuggles. I came home and it was as if I never left - with the exception that I think my girls were maybe a little sad that the nice snuggly lady had left! Will definitely hire again and would recommend to anyone!”

“Jason was fantastic with my pups. He was aware of how to interact with them, seemed to enjoy walking them, feed them as directed and walked them as requested. I am very happy and pups seem to be also.”

“Corinne was amazing! She kept my dog well looked after and comfortable. Was very communicative and a true relief of not having to worry while away. Thank you!!!”

About: My love for animals goes beyond being a pet owner. Through my volunteer experience at animal shelters, I’ve gained hands-on experience socializing animals, handling dogs with different temperaments and needs, and administering medication when needed. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and that patience, consistency, and compassion are essential to helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your dog is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, or requires extra care and attention, I strive to provide a calm, nurturing environment tailored to their needs. I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and responsible, and I understand the importance of following your pet’s routines and care instructions. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is receiving the same love, respect, and attention they deserve while you’re away. Your pet isn’t just a pet—they’re family, and I’ll treat them like one! At the moment, my availability is very flexible. I can provide service at any day and time. I’m local and can travel for clients. In addition, I’m very responsive. I like to make all animals feel at home by providing a relaxed environment. I have a fenced in yard. All animals should be loved and approached with patience.

“Sammantha is our go-to care taker for our rat terrier Indy. She is very responsive and treats Indy like one of her own. Indy loves when Sammantha comes to visit. Highly recommended!”

About: I’ve had dogs all my life and currently have three dogs at my parents house that I care for regularely when my parents need me to and I love it. I’ll come with treats and if your dog has any dietary restrictiond please let me know :) I’m currently working for Arc Midhudson on thurs-Sun at the moment! Sometimes there is variation in that schedule but that it for the most part :) I have a medical condition that may make me have to re schedule appointments but hopefully we can work together on it !! I could teach your dogs some basic tricks like sit and I am a good leash handler. I carry around a fanny pack with my dog stuff in it so it’s hands free and accessible for me.

“Madeline was fantastic! Madeline sent thorough updates every day along with photos of our dog - we really loved these status reports while on vacation. She also went above and beyond so we came home to a clean home after her stay.”

“My dog was immediately comfortable with Ebony, and I came home to a very happy dog (and a spotless home!). Really great experience having Ebony as a sitter. 😊”

“Gabbi was so very amazing! We were nervous to leave our dogs last minute but she was reassuring and also made them feel super comfortable. I could tell in the pictures she sent and when we got home that our dogs were very happy with her. Thank you Gabbi!”

“Chantal did a wonderful job watching Luna while I was away! She was very responsive, provided me plenty of updates, and left my apartment in great condition. I would definitely recommend her!!”

About: Hi, I’m Izzy! I’ve been lucky enough to spend over 17 years caring for all sorts of furry and scaly friends, from dogs and cats to reptiles! Growing up, my home was filled two happy pups, and I’ve proudly been the go-to pet sitter for my friends, family, and neighbors ever since. I currently live with a sweet 14-year-old chihuahua who keeps me company at home. While he previously lived happily with other dogs and attended doggy daycare, he’s become more anxious around unfamiliar pets as he’s gotten older. For his comfort, I’m unable to offer boarding in my home at this time, but I’m happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home through house-sitting, drop-in visits and walks. I have 6 years of experience in positive-reinforcement training with puppies & young dogs, improving leash manners & supporting dogs who struggle with reactivity, potty training/housebreaking, and basic commands. I have 4 years of experience providing special care for senior dogs, including administering oral and topical medications, accommodating specific diets, and adjusting care for pups with vision and/or hearing loss. When it comes to our feline friends, I’ve cared for kittens, adult cats, and seniors who are litter-box trained (plus a few little ones still figuring it out!). I also have experience administering oral and topical medications to cats & kittens, accommodating specific diets, and caring for cats with hearing loss. Please note that I do not have experience administering injectable medications to dogs or cats. I can’t wait to meet your pets and make sure they feel loved and well cared for while you’re away. Feel free to message me. I’d love to see if we’re the perfect fit! I work from home full-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide pet care throughout the day! For house-sitting, I can easily bring my workspace with me, so your pets can have company, attention, potty breaks, and walks throughout the workday rather than being left alone for long stretches. I occasionally have in-person meetings, typically no more than 1–2 times per week. When I do, I’m usually away for about 2–2.5 hours and am very rarely gone for more than 3 hours at a time. If my schedule ever requires a longer stretch away from home, I’ll know in advance and will always communicate that before booking to make sure it works for your pet’s needs and routine. I’m available for weekday and weekend care, including house-sitting, walks, and drop-in visits. While I previously offered boarding, I’m unfortunately unable to host pets in my own home at this time. I currently live with a senior chihuahua has become more anxious around unfamiliar animals as he’s gotten older, so I prioritize his comfort by keeping my current home pet-guest-free. Fortunately, my flexible work-from-home schedule means I’m more than happy to come to your pets instead! When caring for pets in their own home, I follow their usual routines, boundaries, and any instructions around feeding, walks, medications, crating, and household rules to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I love keeping pets active and engaged through neighborhood walks, hikes, backyard play, or indoor enrichment. I’m a big believer that there’s no bad weather, just the wrong clothes for the weather, so I’m happy to get outside in all seasons! I’m attentive to leash safety, surroundings, other animals, and each pet’s comfort level, with experience caring for reactive dogs and seniors who may need extra space, a slower pace, or other accommodations. Above all, I want your pets to feel comfortable at home and you to feel confident they’re in good hands.

About: I’ve had the opportunity to know and take care of so many pets over the past 10 years, they’ve become family to me. I’m an active person who loves playing with dogs and taking them on adventures. I’ve sat and walked many breeds, sizes, and ages, across all kinds of environments, including a long-term role as a private pet care provider for a high-profile client. Animals are a passion of mine, and I believe they deserve only the best from the people who care for them. I’m always eager to make new connections, message me and let’s set something up! My schedule varies week to week since I work shifts that change regularly, but I keep pet care flexible around it. I check my availability closely before committing to anything, so if I say yes, you can count on me to be there. I’m happy to work with you to find times that fit both our schedules — just reach out and we’ll figure it out together When I’m in your home, I treat it with the same respect and care I’d want for my own — sticking closely to your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any specific instructions you give me. I’m attentive to their environment, making sure doors and gates are secure and nothing is out of place that could put them at risk. I always keep an eye out for changes in behavior or health, so if anything seems off, you’ll hear from me right away. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first, always.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

About: Hi there! My name is Kendra. I come with 12+ years of veterinary technician experience. I currently work as a CVT in a veterinary ICU. I am happy to provide care to pets who may need additional TLC, such as senior or special needs pets. Outside of work, I have two cats (Autumn & Creme Brulee) and two dogs. Violet is my mini doodle who I adopted after she was found to have a swallowing disorder, and Emmie Lou is my Australian Shepherd who loves to live her life on the wild side. We love going for walks, long hikes, and various training events like lure courses, agility and dock diving. Both of my girls have earned their CGC (Canine Good Citizens) among other ribbons and sport titles. Loving animals is my whole life and I can't wait to love your fur babies too! 💗 I am available to do drop-in visits (short walks, feeding, play time, medication administration, etc.), or longer walks/hikes for those that may need the extra exercise. I am also available for house sitting upon request. I schedule pet care on my days off from my full-time job. I can also provide house sitting upon request (availability will not routinely be posted for this so feel free to send me a message!). Unfortunately, due to renting I cannot provide pet care in my own home. I can do drop-in visits or longer term house sitting in your home, which I would prefer anyway as I feel pets are usually the most comfortable in their own homes. When walking any dogs outside of a fenced in yard, I will always implement the use of double leashes for added safety.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life, I have owned and cared for multiple breeds of dogs and cats, big and small, and been a pet sitter for friends and family on and off for the last 10 years. As a result of my experience as a pet parent and sitter I am very comfortable with most breeds. I also have limited experience training full grown dogs as well as puppies. I am available for walks, check-ins, or pet sitting every day. I am also available for boarding on a case by case basis. My work schedule allows me to be present for most of the day, so I can remain attentive and take plenty of walk and play breaks. During the times that I am gone I am able to crate them if that is your preference or they can have free access to the main part of the house and I will check in on them regularly through the doggie cams. I am able to dog sit in your home as well as in my own home, which has a large amount of indoor space that they can roam around in, as well as a partially fenced back yard that they can play in on a long leash with my supervision. I have plenty of time for walks and play breaks during the day. And during the few hours a day that I am out of the house, they can be crated, or they can roam around the main part of the house. I check in on them every half hour through the doggy cams set up in the house. I am comfortable walking, feeding, and if necessary, providing medication on the schedule and in the manner that you prefer.

“David took care of everything and everyone—from our Velcro dog who became his best bud to our 16 year old very shy kitty who ended up snuggling up and sleeping with him. It was so nice to come home to happy healthy pets and everything at the house taken care of. I highly recommend David and will be seeking out his services again. Thank you!!!”

“Gabby stayed with our 15 year old, newly diagnosed as diabetic, cat hunter for 4 days. She made sure he received all of his meds, including insulin injections, as instructed. Gabby sent photos and text updates throughout each day. Additionally, she took Hunter to the vet twice to receive his scheduled fluid treatments and made sure his litter box was cleaned daily. We arrived home to a clean house & a happy Hunter. Gabby is very personable, timely & a pleasure to know. I highly recommend Gabby as a responsible, professional & caring pet sitter.”

About: Animals are basically part of my DNA. I’ve been walking dogs and pet sitting since I was a child, and I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, and other animals. I’ve also been riding and caring for horses my entire life, which means I’m very comfortable with responsibility, routines, and understanding animal behavior. I have hands-on experience with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from energetic dogs who love long walks and playtime to seniors who need a calmer pace and extra TLC. I’m great at reading animal cues, keeping routines consistent, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I truly treat every pet as if they were my own. I work from home, so pets are never left alone and are part of my daily routine. My home sits on 3 acres of private property surrounded by a state park, which means lots of space for play and long walks or hikes. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I care for pets by treating them like part of the family, whether they’re in my home or theirs. I stick closely to each pet’s usual routine—including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest—so they feel comfortable and secure. I make sure dogs get plenty of supervised exercise, enrichment, and attention throughout the day. I’m attentive to individual needs, whether that means extra activity for high-energy dogs, gentle care for seniors, or patience and consistency with puppies. I also keep pet parents updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Vinny did an excellent job taking care of our pets and house while we were away on an international trip! He left the house better than he found it - I was very impressed by his thorough cleaning and obvious caretaking of our pets. I don’t think our fur babies even realized we were gone! I would absolutely recommend Vinny for anyone interested in house+petsitting.”
