Pet Sitting Oakwood

About: Since I was a teen, I've always been the go-to person asked to pet sit for people when they went on vacation. I've done it for 10+ years. I recently graduated from law school in May, and I am currently studying for the BAR. I would love to make some money on the side, caring for your special guys and girls! Currently, I have full availability because my sole focus is studying for the BAR. So I can make myself available at any time day or night! I love animals, and I recognize how much they crave attention, especially when they're missing their owner. I would love to provide that necessary attention in your absence. I will make sure that your place is the same as it was when I got there. With a fresh litter box cleaning for cats.

“Addison was amazing! She came to meet Reggie before the job and let him get to know her. She is an excellent communicator and sent videos and pics. She was also flexible with our crazy schedule. Highly recommend her!”

“Elaina communicated well both before and during the booking and arrived at the time discussed. She gave our dogs a needed break in their day and sent me an adorable picture while they were outside playing. I could tell they were happy!”

Julie C.

“Brook took care of my cats for two month while I’m traveling. She is very reliable and professional, paying great attention to my cats’ unusual behaviors. She is the best!!”

Minami N.

“I love the way she kept me updated about everything and reaching out to me without hesitation for any questions. Great communication and amazing service my cat enjoyed having you take care of him!”

Laurel B.

“Jess is awesome! She took great care of my baby and communicates so well! We’d love to hire her again!”

Diana D.

“We cant say enough at how pleased we are with Melissa and her caring for Dixie while we were away! Dixie took to Melissa literally the minute they met. Dogs have a way of knowing, and she wasn't wrong! Her meet and greet was so professional and caring. The questions she asks allows her to know all the things that are important to your pets care. This was a huge plus for us! Melissa went above and beyond in so many ways, like bringing up our trash can and the daily mail. Little things that mean a lot. Her daily report and pictures were priceless! 5 stars aren't enough. We highly recommend Melissa and her services and will be calling on her again!”

Lisa S.

“Anna was amazing! I got consistent updates from her and she was super flexible when there were problems with my apartment, taking my dog to her house so that she would be provided for! Cannot recommend her enough!”

Peter R.

“Oh, my pups were just so happy to see Jessi, and my younger dog who always barks with new people, did not bark at all! Jessi was very kind and had a calm demeanor with my senior pup and my anxious pup:) I will definitely request their help again!”

About: I have always grown up with dogs, since I was a young child I have shared the responsibilities of caring for a family dog. We have always had Bernese Mountain Dogs, so I am particularly adept at caring for active, very large dogs. Growing up I always cared for friend's, family's, and neighbors dogs while they were away on trips, or busy with work. This gave me the ability to care for a diverse profile of dogs with diverse, individualized needs. I am responsible and will closely follow the instructions left to provide your animal with the care it requires. While my experience is primarily with dogs, I also have experience caring for cats for my friends and family as well. In addition to providing your pet with high-quality care, I will also ensure that it feels secure, safe, and loved, even in your temporary absence. I have experience with dogs with high- anxiety, specifically separation anxiety, and I know how to calm your pet in these scenarios. Being apart from your furry loved one can be a time of anxiety for both you and your pet, but I will be sure to provide exceptional care to ease the anxieties of all involved. Overall, I am extremely loving, caring, and responsible, and feel I am an excellent choice to care for your pet. I am currently a Physician Assistant student, so I am busy during most of the day from 8-4, however I have breaks and can stop by to let your dog out or have a romp with them if needed. Other than that, my evenings, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays are entirely open, allowing me to dedicate much attention to your pet! I will be sure to accurately and closely follow all instructions that you leave regarding your pets care. I am comfortable with crating dogs if that is your desire. I am also quite adept at "pet proofing' your or my home before leaving, to ensure there is no trouble your animal could get into. My home has a fenced in yard and one very friendly Bernese Mountain Dog, though I could make arrangements for him to reside elsewhere during your pets stay if that is your desire.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats my entire life and have hands-on experience with animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Growing up with pets, I learned early on the importance of providing consistent care, attention, exercise, and companionship. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve regularly helped friends, neighbors, and family members by pet sitting and caring for their dogs and cats. My experience includes working with puppies and kittens, senior pets, sick animals requiring extra attention, untrained dogs, and dogs with behavioral challenges or aggression. I understand that every pet has unique needs and I take the time to build trust while ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Whether it’s feeding, walking, administering basic care, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am reliable, patient, attentive, and committed to giving pet owners peace of mind while they’re away. I work a flexible and non demanding remote job, giving me plenty of time throughout the day to provide attentive pet care. I can accommodate walks, feeding schedules, playtime, medication administration, and lots of companionship to ensure pets feel comfortable and cared for. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, comfort, and maintaining their normal routine. I carefully follow all instructions provided by the owner regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special needs. I make sure pets have constant access to fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention and enrichment. I have experience caring for pets of different ages, temperaments, and needs, including senior pets, sick animals, untrained dogs, and dogs with behavioral challenges. I always take the time to build trust with each pet and monitor them closely to ensure they are safe and comfortable. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are receiving excellent care while they are away.

“Elle did a great job checking in on Charlie while I was away. She was on time, communicated well before and throughout the visit, and made sure he was happy and well taken care of. I would definitely book with her again!”

Victoria A.

“Helena worked around a hiccup with the app and was so understanding and accommodating! She got our shy kitty to warm up to her the first day and he was always excited to see her. She sent great videos and pictures and was responsive to messages. I am very pleased to say the least! And my little Finn is smitten.”

Angela M.

“Crystal was so great! She took care of my senior and handicap dogs so well and I knew they were receiving such great love and care. I really appreciated the pictures she sent every visit. I will keep those forever.”

Jessica T.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Allison was absolutely amazing with my cat while I was away! From the start, she was communicative, friendly, and clearly cares deeply about animals. She followed all feeding instructions perfectly, kept his water fresh, and even spent time playing with him (which he loved — she quickly figured out his favorite toys!). She sent me daily updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while traveling. It’s clear she treats pets like her own, and I could tell she went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and entertained. I’ll absolutely be booking with Allison again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely caring sitter.”

Kent G.

“Sandy was great! She did check ins with our big dogs and an overnight boarding with our baby dog. Sandy's dog cupcake got along so well with my dog. I would definitely recommend her to be anyone's dog sitter!”

Ashley W.

“Raven has been absolutely fabulous! She looked after our kitty Sasha while we were gone and kept us updated. She’s a great communicator and lovely woman! Highly recommend and would 100% hire again.”

About: I have had extensive experience with dogs, cats and exotic pets! Everything from personally caring for my own dog with allergies and anxiety to caring for medical fosters. I am experienced with high need pets and able to adapt my behavior to thier needs. I have a flexible schedule this summer and would love to help you out! Right now I am taking the summer to get ready for graduate school. This means I have a super open and flexible schedule. My day typically starts with exercise and ends with reading a book. This leaves plenty of time for me to meet and accommodate your needs. Care for pets is often determined but the pet themselves. Do you have a high energy working breed or an anxious low energy chihuahua? I am fully prepared to meet you and your pet where you are at!
