House Sitting in Newton

About: I’ve taken care of large, active breeds and smaller, more relaxed pups - all are welcome! All pets will have the opportunity for consistent, safe walks on post with play and attention throughout the day. I am available throughout the work week to help ensure pets are able to get their walks in or to host (at our home or yours) for training or weekend passes and leave. Happy to coordinate a routine schedule or arrange for unexpected care! I have a fenced in yard in Bowden terrace, with a large residential field nearby to take for fetch or for walks around the block. At home, we have a relaxed corgi of our own; your pet is welcome to lounge in the front room, receive healthy snacks (with your approval), and may either sleep in the open or in a kennel for the evening if you prefer. All care will be coordinated with you to ensure your pet feels welcome and comfortable!

About: I’ve had dogs and been an animal lover for longer than I can remember! My pup Winston passed away a few months ago and I am not ready to move on but would love to love on your pup instead! I work from home so am home majority of the time! I work from home so I am home majority of the time and have a pretty flexible work schedule. I can work around your pets needs💗 I have a fenced in yard with sidewalks throughout the neighborhood. We have one pet, Scout, who is a gentle giant! She loves to play with other dogs

“Terri is absolutely our new favorite petsitter. She housesat our dog for 5 days. Our dog had lots of needs emotionally and physically and she was able to accommodate our pet and provide the attention, time, and medication hd needed. Terri left our home in the way we left it, and she took good care of our little dog. She is an excellent communicator and went above and beyond. I am very particular and i would absolutely recommend this sitter and we will use her again and again. Thank you Terri! ?”

About: My dad always had and trained dogs when I was growing up. I enjoy spending time with them and getting to know their personalities. Dogs are a wonderful part of a family and teach us about relationships. I work 4 days a week. I’m available 24/7 Friday, Saturday & Sunday. I’m also available Thursday evenings after 6 pm. I live in a pet approved apartment complex where we have plenty of walking areas for pets. They will need to be leash trained or small enough I can carry them to our fenced in pet area for potty/ outdoor play time. I have two cats but have no problem with keeping them put up in my bedroom while your pet is staying with me. They are both spayed and neutered and have their vaccines. I would love to have your pet stay or I can come to you.

About: Hello! My name is Giovanna, and I’d love to share a little about myself. Growing up, I was never allowed to have pets (other than a goldfish). My dad would take me to the pet store, and I would beg for even a hamster, but he never budged. So naturally, whenever I visited friends or went to gatherings, I was always the one playing with and loving on the pets. I jumped at every opportunity to help care for my friends’ and family’s animals. When I finally moved out on my own, I adopted my very first pet, my cat, Winnie, within 10 days. Not long after, I decided Winnie needed a friend, so I adopted my second cat, Apache. Later, when I moved in with my now husband, I finally convinced him to get a dog, something I had wanted my entire life. After lots of research, I chose a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, and that’s how we welcomed Emmett into our family. One of my favorite hobbies is training Emmett, working on obedience, tricks, and even some agility. I love the moment when something finally “clicks” for him (it’s like finally understanding a math problem!). Growing up, people would always say their pets were family, and I didn’t fully understand that until I had my own. Now, I don’t even see them as pets, they are my children. Because of that, I deeply understand the trust and responsibility that comes with caring for someone else’s animals. I will always treat your pets like my own, with love, patience, and attention. I also know how important updates are, so you can expect plenty of photos and check-ins while you’re away (I already have way too many pictures of my own pets!). I’m a military spouse with base access, and I offer in-home pet sitting, dog walking, and cat care. I’d also be happy to incorporate some light training or tricks if you’re interested! In my free time, I’m currently training for the Chicago Marathon, so if your dog loves to run or needs extra exercise, I can definitely keep up! I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m available for dog walking, drop-ins, and in-home pet sitting on both weekdays and weekends and last minute requests. I’m also happy to accommodate early mornings, evenings, or more active dogs who need extra exercise. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to be proactive, attentive, and cautious in every situation. I stay highly aware of my surroundings, follow routines closely, and take extra care to prevent any risks. Clear communication is just as important to me. I provide regular updates, photos, and quick responses so you always feel informed and at ease while you’re away. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for at all times.

About: My lifelong love for dogs began with Chihuahuas, and over the years, that passion has grown alongside the size and variety of the dogs in my life. From caring for senior and small-breed dogs to now living with two high-energy Belgian Malinois, I’ve developed hands-on experience with a wide range of temperaments, energy levels, and care needs. Whether your dog needs a gentle stroll or a more active outing, I provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care tailored to their individual personality and health. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. As a self-employed professional who works from home and on the road, I have the flexibility to offer daytime walks and drop-ins that suit your schedule. I’m also an early riser, so early morning visits are never a problem. During drop-in visits, I’m happy to provide walks, playtime (including a game of fetch), relaxed companionship for senior dogs, and of course, plenty of affection and attention.

“Haylie was absolutely phenomenally. Did a meet and greet on short notice, communicated well, and took great care of the dogs while I was gone. Highly recommend!”

“Took very good care of our high-energy puppy, adult dog, and cat while we were gone on a week-long trip. She gave them plenty of attention and exercise and made sure they were safe and cared for the whole time. She gave us the peace of mind that our pets were in great hands so that we could enjoy our trip. We will definitely be rebooking!”

Megan E.

“Emanuella was great. She met the animals during our Meet and Greet, and they fell in love with her instantly. She kept me informed throughout her stay, and she followed my instructions to the letter. I would definitely book with her again.”

About: I have many years of experience with caring for pets; large and small and of many breeds. I am patient and understand that "dogs will be dogs" and realize they will have accidents and might nip or snap if scared. I have had dogs of my own and realize they are part of your family and I will always treat them as such. My kids love animals. My husband is here to help me if any of the dogs get rambunctious. I'd love to keep your fur baby/babies, please contact me. You wont regret it. I work full time 8am-5pm Monday-Thursday, but my husband is home during the day due to working night shift. There is usually always someone home. I live on a 3 acre lot. Our backyard is fenced in. All of the dogs I board are kept inside with the exception of potty breaks/play time.

About: I have taken care of many dogs and including my own! I love to see the different variety of dogs and how each one has their own little of style of being taken care of! Currently a college student so it would be a perfect fit in my schedule and kind of creating my own work schedule but still having a job! Making sure i know where to locate everything in the clients home and how many treats the dog may get! Just asking those important questions to make sure i can provide the best care for your fur babies!

“Cassidy was fantastic! It was such a comfort knowing our babies were taken such good care of. The pictures she sent were so cute and it was obvious by how attached they were to her that the cats and dogs loved her. Cassidy’s maturity and knowledge of pets and their behaviors reassured us they were in great hands. We will definitely use Cassidy again. Highly recommend her!”

About: I love animals so of course I have a zoo of my own with 2 cats, a German Shepard dog, and a bearded dragon. I’ve had multiple jobs working with animals including horses, livestock, dogs, cats, birds, sugar gliders, you name it! I worked at a horse stable for 6 years and Petsmart for 2 years as an animal caretaker. I will be working part time and taking college classes but I have a lot of free time to fill by taking care of your fur babies. When I take care of your pets I want to make sure I take care of them exactly how you would want so I usually like to ask for a list of their routine, feedings, and what they like to do just to make sure they are comfortable and get the best care possible.

About: I have been caring for cats and dogs since I was around eight years old and have extensive experience pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and relatives. Currently, I am the proud owner of one cat, which has deepened my understanding of feline behavior and needs. Additionally, I have a bit of experience caring for senior dogs, allowing me to provide the specialized attention they require. My lifelong passion for animal care, combined with hands-on experience, ensures that your pets receive the highest level of attention and care. I'm currently only studying and testing for my GED so I have a pretty flexible schedule! The rest of my time is spent with my own pets and with family! I'll use the tools provided by you to provide upstanding care for your furry friends. Walking, feeding, play and enrichment, even bathing if requested! It's a pleasure to work with these animals and make them happy and comfortable!

About: “With over 15 years of hands-on experience in dog care, I bring both professional expertise and genuine love to every pup I care for. From playful puppies to senior dogs, I’ve built lasting bonds and peace of mind for pet parents“ If you have a pet, I can set a routine specifically to your lifestyle and the type of animal including feeding ,watering , exercising /play, bathroom needs, and basic grooming. Caring for pets at home or in a client’s home depends on the type of service being provided. Providing general responsibilities as set in routine, maintaining updates to clients , safe environment, comfort, socialization, routine , and supervising.

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. For over 15 years, I’ve cared for my own dogs as family — handling daily walks, meals, baths, meds, and lots of love. I take pride in being dependable, calm, and tuned in to each dog’s needs. I maintain a structured and dependable weekly schedule. I attend standing dialysis appointments on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, so my availability is best on non-dialysis days. With advance planning, I’m happy to discuss timing to ensure your pet’s routine is fully supported with attentive, uninterrupted care. I focus on providing calm, attentive care in a pet’s own home, where they are most comfortable. I follow routines closely, prioritize safety and cleanliness, and respect each client’s home and instructions. I communicate clearly with updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I am an animal lover! Our pets are more than just animals they are a part of our family. If you utilized my walking services I would absolutely love to walk your pet so they can get their daily exercise required to keep them healthy. I have owned and taken care of animals ever since I can remember. They are all members of the family big and small. You can count on me to take extra care of your pet, just as I would my very own. I also provide house sitting services to care for your pets while you are away on business or vacation. I currently hold a full time work from home job with weekends off. I will be able to care for your pets throughout each day and take them for walks and bathroom breaks. Whatever your pet needs, they will be taken good care of. Any instructions left by you, the owner, will be followed 100%. You can leave your pet in my care knowing they will be well looked after. I try to keep things as close as possible to whatever their normal routine is.
