House Sitting Northeast

“Wonderful experience having Ashley watch our fur babies. She was very accommodating and communicative throughout our entire trip. The pictures she sent us were some of my favs of my pets I’ve ever received. I cannot recommend her enough and look forward to sharing our pups with her again!”

About: Ever since I was a little girl there have been dogs in the house. When I was a young woman in my 20’s I worked at a wildlife rehab center in the suburbs of Chicago (Willowbrook Wildlife Haven). During my marriage I fostered dogs for 5 years and we also had our own dogs, everything from a Beagle to a Collie to Golden Retrievers. I love bird watching, love Ornithology! My love of animals has apparently rubbed off onto my kids. One daughter has two cats and one dog and my other daughter rescued her dog two years ago. The saying of “Who Rescued Who” is very true since she needed some four legged love during her college life and her dog has truly bonded with her! I am a stay at home mom, soon to be an empty nester. I am wanting to fill my time with some four legged love! I have a very large fenced in yard and a doggy door in the kitchen area. I love that door, my dogs just come and go and it’s great if I’m out and about for a few hours!

“Laura was great with our pup Ryder. I would definitely book her again.”

“Aubrey was fantastic! She was able to help out with last second sitting. Very responsive and great with our girls. We will be contacting her again!”

“Steven pet sat for us in our home. He sent us pictures of our animals and even dealt with our chickens getting loose. Our animals were well kept and our house meticulous when we got back.”

“Brittany was super fabulous and excellent. She took wonderful care of our Gracie Girl. Gracie is a prima donna and was a bit of a challenge to get to eat while we were away for 6 days, but Brittany persevered and won. She also took great care of watching our home in our absence. We could not have asked for more. We have also booked her for October, we were so pleased with her excellence. We highly recommend Brittany for home and dog care.”

About: The only dog I haven't been able to wear out withstood a 6 mile run, an hour of fetch, and 20 minutes of tug o' war. I love playing and providing engaging training as well. I have a calm and friendly attitude that dogs love and can comfort the most timid of pets. I have rescued abused dogs and am familiar with how emotionally damaged dogs interact and adjust. I provide cautious and professional care while entertaining your pet. I have experience administering simple medications and treatments. My experience ranges from puppies to elderly dogs and terriers to pit bulls to 90 lb labs. Exceptional care from a life long dog lover. I also love doing commissioned pet portraits outside of Rover (see my cover photo).

“Kelly went above & beyond watching our pets while we were gone! She took great care of them and left our home in great condition! So thankful”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have been sitting since I was a kid. I love animals but I especially love dogs - your fur baby and I will be best friends while you are away. I love going on walks and playing fetch, and generally just doing what I can to make sure your dog is well cared for. I have experience giving dogs medications, baths, etc. I have experience with 8 week old puppies as well as elderly dogs. I’m a graduate student with night class two nights a week, but otherwise I work from home. Making sure your pets get needed attention won’t be an issue for me! I only care for pets in the owners home, that way your fur baby stays where they are familiar and comfortable. I am very clean and tidy and will ensure that I clean up after myself while staying with your pet.

About: Hi there! I’m Ronda, and along with my partner Brian, we make the perfect duo for all your pet sitting needs! We don’t have pets of our own, but we’re always surrounded by family dogs and pets, so we have plenty of animal love to go around! We have experience with pets of all ages and energy levels, so whether your furry friend is a playful puppy or a calm senior, we’ve got it covered. We live in an apartment with access to a large park and work from home, so your pet will enjoy frequent walks and lots of attention. Please note HouseSit and Boarding in a hotel/motel will not be accepted due to safety reasons. Thank you for understanding that safety for both parties is a priority! Thank you for considering us to be your pet’s sitter/walker! I currently work full time but I work from home so I’m available to keep on eye on your animal all day/night and provide lots of love My partner and I currently live in an apartment. It’s small but mighty. I do live near a park so I’m able to take your fur baby out frequently.

“Sharon was awesome throughout the whole process! She communicated great, gave me updates multiple times a day and took great care of my dog. I will definitely keep her in mind for future times that I travel.”

“Monica was very friendly and sweet with our girls. She sent a lot of photo updates which I really appreciate. Thank you!!”

Amber M.

“Kayla housesit for us with our dogs, and did an amazing job. We will definitely be using her again. Our dogs were clearly well taken care of, our home was just like we left it, and our dogs got plenty of outside time. Kayla definitely went above and beyond in their care.”

About: I’ve been taking care of all kinds of animals for the past 8 years, and I’m also a cat owner myself. I really enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I work full-time but have gaps in my day where I can check on your fur babies and make sure they are thriving in their home. I can pick up on behavior quickly and would love to take care of them in an environment they know and already love. I would love to meet them ahead of time to establish trust.

“Angie was great. Lucy loves her. This is the 2nd time of house sitting we had with her and we came to a clean house both times. Will definitely recommend her and will call her up in the future.”

“Teijah did a great job. She made regular stops through the day like I requested. My dog is a little timid with strangers and even more so when I’m not there but Teijah gave her space and made sure she was fed, watered and let out to potty regularly. Would use her house sitting service again.”

Adam S.

“Took great care of our dogs. Sent us pictures and updates. Highly recommend!”

About: I have over 7 years of experience caring for a variety of animals, from energetic family dogs to my own cat, Charlie. My background isn't just in the basics; I’m experienced in administering medication, managing specific dietary schedules, and providing high-energy exercise for larger breeds. As a student at VWU, I have a predictable weekly routine that allows me to offer consistent early morning, mid-day, and evening visits. Because I live/study locally, I’m able to be flexible with my timing between classes and can easily accommodate last-minute requests or regular daily check-ins. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize maintaining their familiar routine and ensuring your space remains secure. I treat every home with the utmost respect, staying diligent about locking up and keeping areas clean. During our time together, your pet has my full attention—whether we’re on a walk or playing indoors—and I’m happy to provide frequent photo updates so you have total peace of mind while you're away.

“JaNasia is incredibly kind, patient, and responsible. She was able to handle our small zoo without issue and was always responsive and easy to reach. Will definitely be reaching out to book with her again!”

“We could not have asked for a better sitter, especially over Christmas. She cared for our dogs and cat for a full week during the holidays and went far above and beyond what we expected. Our dog Nemo can be very difficult with eating, and she was incredibly patient — even spoon-feeding him to make sure he ate. That alone meant the world to us. She handled all of our pets with so much care, attention, and kindness, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. She kept us updated, treated our animals like her own, and truly went the extra mile during a busy holiday week. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets, and that peace of mind is priceless. We would 100% book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and dedicated sitter.”
