House Sitting New Milltown

About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up with dogs, I was the kid who wanted to meet every pet I came across, and that passion has only grown into adulthood. Along with having my own two dogs and cat, I've spent years caring for the pets of friends and family, treating each one as if they were my own. I also worked as a stablehand at a local farm, where I cared for a wide variety of animals—including cats, dogs, horses, donkeys, goats, cows, and even swans. I've also volunteered with dog walking programs in the city, giving me experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. As a pet owner myself, I understand how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your beloved companion with someone new. That's why my goal is to provide the same love, patience, and attention that I would want for my own pets. I believe communication, reliability, and attention to detail are incredibly important when caring for animals, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality and routine. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cozy couch cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal schedule, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Caring for animals has always been more than a job to me—it's something I truly enjoy, and I would love to help you! Pet care fits easily into my routine! I work a typical 9–5 during the week and have some flexibility for evening visits, but I primarily focus on pet care on weekends. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to each pet and provide reliable, attentive care while you're away. I believe pets are happiest when they're able to stick to their normal routine, so I always do my best to follow each owner's instructions and provide care that's tailored to their pet's needs. Whether I'm stopping by for visits, going on walks, or caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I'll keep up with feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, medications if needed, and of course provide plenty of attention and updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

“We could not have had a better experience with Stephen watching our yellow lab, Odie, while we were away on vacation. From the moment we confirmed the reservation, Stephen was incredibly meticulous and thoughtful in his planning. He wanted to meet ahead of time to go over every detail, and we actually met twice before we left because he truly wanted to make sure everything was covered. That level of care and professionalism immediately put us at ease. While we were away, Stephen sent us updates and pictures every single morning. Not once did we feel anxious or worried about Odie being away from us because Stephen gave us complete reassurance the entire time. We always knew Odie was in great hands. Stephen is kind, gentle, professional, and clearly loves dogs. You can see it in the way he communicates with them and with their owners. He treated Odie with so much patience and care, and it meant the world to us to know our dog was being loved and cared for while we were gone. I truly could not recommend Stephen more highly. Whether you are considering having him stay in your home or boarding your dog with him, you absolutely cannot go wrong. Your dog will be loved, cared for, and treated like family, and you will love Stephen just as much as your dog does.”

“Carissa was great with our timid little kitty and helped her transition to a new home very well. We appreciated her help greatly!”

“Lexi was absolutely amazing and went above and beyond. Our dog had an expected health issue before we left and Lexi kept us up to date every day on how she was doing, calibrated to a different diet and some meds needed for the week, and even coordinated with me and the vet regarding a complication that came up from her health issue while we were gone. She clearly has a good pulse on animals and even our vet commented on how on top of things she was. Let this serve as a glowing review, highly highly recommended house/dog/cat sitter, and I hope we have the opportunity to book with her again in the future.”

Mary went above and beyond and we highly recommend her to care for your pets!! 🩷 We will definitely have Mary come stay with our pets again in our home. Thanks 😊 Mary!!! Xoxo Bronson Simon & Boots 🩷”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Over the years, I’ve fostered and rescued dogs, cats, litters of puppies, and litters of kittens, giving me hands-on experience with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Through fostering, I’ve worked with a wide range of temperaments, including shy and fearful animals, high-energy pets, senior pets, and those needing extra patience and reassurance. I’m comfortable reading animal body language, following care instructions, administering basic medications when needed, and helping pets feel safe and comfortable while their families are away. As a pet owner and foster caregiver, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care and plenty of updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to treating your pets like they’re part of my own family! I currently work part time, mostly from home with flexible hours. I could easily accommodate your schedule so your baby is well taken care of when you are away. I spoil my pets with lots of love and would do the same with yours! If you have any specific routines or feeding regimens I have no problem sticking to them to keep consistency for your pet.

“Thank you James for taking such good care of Bandit. We appreciated your promptness and taking such good car of him so well.”

About: I grew up with pets since I was a little girl - raising 3 dogs and 2 cats. I’m currently not a pet owner, because although I’d love to, I live in a small apartment! However, I frequently help out family and friends with their own pets - rather that be pet sitting for a short weekend or walks throughout the day! I’m flexible and attentive. I can help with, but I’m not limited to: Feeding pets and putting out fresh water Brushing and grooming pets Bathing pets Cleaning litter boxes Walking dogs in all kinds of weather Vacuuming up pet hair Giving medications Taking pets to the vet in emergency situations Notifying owners of any injuries or sickness, and keeping them updated on their pets and home I look forward to working with you! I’m currently focused on building a flexible work schedule, which gives me plenty of time to provide attentive care for your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins throughout the week and weekends. I enjoy staying active, so regular walks, playtime, and keeping pets company fit naturally into my daily routine. I’m also communicative and dependable, and I’ll make sure your pet gets lots of love, attention, and updates while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving environment where pets can feel secure and cared for. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medication instructions, potty breaks, and individual personalities or needs. I understand that every animal is different, so I take the time to help them feel comfortable and build trust at their pace. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and consistent communication so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

“Savannah was wonderful with Shep. She was kind, communicative, and made me feel completely comfortable leaving him in her care. I really appreciated her updates and the thoughtful attention she gave him. I would absolutely recommend her and would be happy to have her watch Shep again.”

“Kianna was wonderful! This was our first time leaving our dog Axle behind while we went on vacation. He's very hyper and jumps on new people so we needed to find someone that could handle him and help with training. We were so lucky to find Kianna! She does dog training and has experience with hyper dogs, and she lived only a few minutes away from us, so it worked out perfectly. She followed Axle's schedule and his routine and kept us posted with photos. Axle was so happy to make a new friend! Kianna will be our first choice next time we go on vacation!”

“Riley was fantastic!! She was very pleasant, professional and willing to make a pre-sit visit to give our little protector a meet n greet. All 3 of our shitzuh mixes seemed to enjoy having Riley stay with them! Even our tough love Toby seemed to warm up quickly. We highly recommend Riley, and would like her to sit for us in the future.”

It is such a comfort knowing our Lexi was so well taken care of! Rachel gave her medication, prepared her special meals and definitely spoiled her! We can’t wait to welcome Rachel again!”

“Hailey was great with our dogs and took excellent care of our home while we were away. She was responsible and attentive and kept me updated the whole time I was away. Would have her back to watch my pups anytime!”

About: I’ve dog & cat sat for family & friends. This includes giving medicine , helping handicapped dogs, and feeding amongst other parts of their daily routine. I’m currently working partime so sitting is just on the side but my work schedule does not interfere , i don’t mind working and coming home to someone else’s dog in the slightest ! I treat everyone’s animals like my own. I have a cat and have had dogs in the past, i keep them on a routine & make sure their needs are taken care of at all times.

“Ashley was amazing! She notified us and sent a picture of our pups soon after she arrived. She kept us updated by emails and photos throughout her stay. Because our return was tentative because of driving back from a wedding, she stopped by in the afternoon to let the pups out prior to our return. I highly recommend her and will be using her again!”
