House Sitting Oakville

“Delaney was excellent! From the very first communication she was kind, friendly and when she came to meet the dogs it was clear that she loved them and they loved her. She house sat for 3 nights. She sent photos through out the stay. The house was very clean and the dogs and our bunny were very happy and taken care of. We will definitely use her again!!!!”

“Very responsible and sensitive to our senior cat’s needs. She was great with communication, made us feel that our kitties were in good hands.”

About: I have never lived in a household without pets, and I would never want it any other way. I love animals fiercely, and I adore taking care of them. I even briefly made a career out of it with Riverbend Pet Center, where I worked as a boarding and doggy day care attendant. Though my struggles with management eventually caused us to part ways, I have sought working with animals ever since! I am punctual and detail oriented, and my time professionally caring for animals has given me plenty of experience with different personalities, needs, and medications. I've even successfully administered injectable medications, thanks to my time job shadowing with State Avenue Veterinary Hospital. I've worked with everything from puppies who were still learning their names, to old dogs who needed help standing to go to the bathroom. Cats are no issue for me either, I'm a cat person through and through and would love the opportunity to spend time with your fur baby! I'm well versed in animal body language too, and will easily learn the boundaries and needs of your pet too! I'm currently working mornings in Centralia, so afternoons are ideal for me, usually any time after 12 PM. It's worth noting, however, that Safeway is finicky with hours, and my availability will vary a little from week to week. Please feel free to reach out and ask about scheduling, even if you fall outside of my normal window! Though I live out in Mossyrock, the commute I already make for work makes driving to you and your pet no problem at all for me! I live about a 5 minute walk from a beautiful park, where I often take walks and runs, and I would be thrilled to take your baby along with me! I'm also a hiker, and would be more than happy to take a plus one on an adventure if they're the type to enjoy it! As I already have cats of my own, my home is already pet proofed and stocked with plenty of blankets, treats, and toys. I even keep my living room wide open to allow for plenty of room for play! I'm well-versed in animal body language too, and will pick up quickly if something is wrong or your baby isn't feeling well. You can trust me to keep them safe, cozy, and well cared for! As a pet-owner myself, I know the importance of checking in with your pet when you're away, as well as the need for pictures of the memories we make! I make a point to snag as many cute pictures as I can-- to keep you in the loop, and to keep memories of the friends I've made!

About: Completed provided training and volunteered at the Animal shelter I’m comfortable providing insulin shots or oral medications as needed I can do basic hand and commands at your request to be continuous in the training of dogs. Often referred to as the animal whisperer with over 30 years experience of loving and caring for my own and other pets including cats, dogs, hamsters, fish, bearded dragon, goats, horses, cows and turtles. My calm demeanor can aid even tho most anxious of animals. I believe animals make our lives better and would welcome the opportunity to walk and play with your pets. Caring for them like they were my own but with your needs in mind. Let me know what you need and I’m sure we can work it out. Sprocket and I love being outside. Dog walks are awesome when he too can tag along. Only with prior permission. Rovering is how i spend my days with regular clients and fitting in others where feasible. Sprocket has a small backyard for play but prefers to go for car rides in his crate for new adventures. We play both indoor and out door games. correction is made with positive reinforcement.

About: I grew up with all sorts of pet friends: frogs, geckos, dogs, and cats. From a year long pet sitting gig to one of my regulars that has geese and ducks! Let me know how I can provide peace of mind to your family while you're away. My work from home position and my Wednesday-Sunday work schedule gives me a unique position that most others cannot provide. I am home bound for work during typical "social days" and love to have pets of all kinds as my coworkers! Everyone's needs are different. I personally have two indoor cats that I would never let out. But, I know others who have an outdoor cat they take on walks. Understanding that each pet has a different personality, routines, and temperament is the key to making sure everyone's needs are met.

“Sheila was GREAT! Super communicative and gave us updates/photos on our pup. She left our home just as we’d left it. Would definitely have her sit again and recommend 100%”

About: I’m dependable, attentive, and respectful of your home. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving both your pets and your home in someone else’s care, and I take that seriously. I’m comfortable in just about any animal-loving household, whether that means caring for dogs and cats, looking after horses, cows, chickens, or rabbits, or making sure the houseplants are happy, too. I enjoy getting to know each animal and their individual personalities, routines, and needs. If there’s something specific your pet needs, I’m happy to learn and make sure their care stays consistent while you’re away. I also have a VERY friendly, 50-pound Goldendoodle of my own who loves cats and other dogs! In the right circumstances, and with everyone’s comfort and approval, I could potentially bring her along for some playtime with another dog. However, in most cases, she stays home with my husband while I house sit, allowing me to give your pets my full attention the same way I would want someone to treat my dog when I was away! Bottom line, your pets deserve the same love and care they are used to while you are gone and I will do my very best to make sure they get that! I do occasionally need to leave the home for everyday errands, appointments, or occasional meetings. On average, you can expect me to be away for approximately four hours per day, with the rest of my time dedicated to caring for your pets and home. Your home is your personal space, and I treat it with the same care and respect I would my own. When house sitting, my priority is keeping your pets comfortable and maintaining their normal routines in the environment they know and feel safe in. I’m mindful of home security, keeping doors and gates secured, following your instructions, and making sure your pets are safe and accounted for. I’ll keep things tidy, bring in mail and packages, water plants, and take care of the little details that make a difference while you’re away. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust. I take that responsibility seriously and want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your home and the animals you love are in caring, dependable hands. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away without worrying about what’s happening at home.

“Exceptional! That's the word that perfectly encapsulates our experience with Adam. He came through for us at the eleventh hour when our initial dog sitter canceled, stepping in to care for our furry family members during the Christmas break. His presence didn't just put our minds at ease; it filled our hearts with gratitude. With a 4-year-old Havanese and a 15-year-old mini-Labradoodle, leaving our dogs, especially our elderly one, with a relative stranger was nerve-wracking. However, Adam's dedication and understanding of our pets' needs transformed our apprehension into trust. He not only stayed in our home but also surpassed all expectations by keeping us updated multiple times a day. His regular messages, complete with photos and videos, allowed us to witness firsthand the happiness of our girls. Administering medication to our Labradoodle was no easy feat, but Adam's commitment shone through as he took the time to learn her preferences and comfort zones. Remarkably, our senior dog ate well under his care, something she rarely does in our absence. Adam tailored his walks to suit our doodle's energy levels, demonstrating an unparalleled level of attentiveness. Adam's thoughtfulness extended beyond pet care; he attended to household chores, from taking out the garbage to refreshing the sheets and tidying up the house. Though we missed our beloved pups, the peace of mind knowing they were content and cherished made it the greatest gift of the season. I wholeheartedly endorse Adam to anyone seeking a trustworthy, conscientious, and genuinely caring pet sitter.”

“she's is the best sitter we had, trustworthy and dependable! she loved our dog and made our puppy happy 😊 she also saved my husky! our lockbox was stuck and she couldn't get in the house we were out of town and can't get back. so she did her best and got in touch with our neighbors so my dog won't be stuck at home for 48 hours! I still couldn't thank her enough”

About: I’m home Monday–Friday and available on weekends with advance notice. I live in Beachcrest, with a private trail to the beach and plenty of dog-friendly parks nearby. If your pet loves exploring, they’ll have plenty of opportunities for beach adventures, walks, and play! My home has a large deck and yard, though the yard is unfenced. Pets often enjoy sunbathing on the deck or checking out my fish ponds. I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for family, friends, and colleagues for as long as I can remember. I have experience with pet first aid, medication administration, and senior animals, and I’ll care for your pet with the same love and attention I give my own. My goal is to make your pet feel right at home. I'm very flexible so just message me and I can find a time to accommodate you. Whether it's early morning or late at night. I'll be there! Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and keeping pets comfortable in their normal routine. When I arrive, I like to have a little pow-wow with the pets and, yes, I sometimes have conversations with them. 😂 I’ll always make sure they have clean bowls, fresh food and water, and plenty of potty breaks, along with any walks, medications, or special care they need. Most importantly, I want every pet to feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away.

About: I’ve had dogs as long as I can remember. Puppy’s to seniors with med regimens, physical problems or even just needed someone to care for them. I love animals I’ve dedicated almost my whole live to my baby’s & others. I assure you that your baby’s are in good hands. When your dog stays with me, we can guarantee - 3-4 potty breaks min. -trip to the dog park (depending on preference) -consistency with training and commands -open communication with photos/videos ** PLEASE NOTE -Meet and Greets are complimentary. Any additional meetings outside of booking are $10 per half hour I am currently a CNA working on studying to be a LPN. I currently work in memory care for seniors. I love my job because you never know what the days brings and I get to have a learning experience on the daily. I will strictly follow the instructions given to make you and your furry baby’s feel cared for and seen. I’ve had bad sitters and I’d never wish that upon anyone.

“Alexis was absolutely amazing. She house sat for us and took care of our dog (with special behavioral needs) and our cat for 10 days. The pets were so happy when we returned, it was as if we had never left. We could tell they were well cared for. She was tidy and well communicative. It was also incredibly helpful that she did a meet and greet before with our pup just to ensure things ran smoothly before we departed for our trip. We felt very secure while away and will definitely be contacting her in the future! She is the absolute sweetest.”
