House Sitting Oakwood

“Evan did a wonderful job watching my two rescue babies and our home for 5 nights. He is kind, reliable and detail oriented. His communication is clear and timely. I was able to relax while I was away because I knew they were in loving and capable hands. I will definitely be rebooking in the future!”

About: I've always had at least one animal by my side ever since I was an infant. My direct pet care experience includes dogs, cats, mice, hamsters, and fish. (Oh! I also would like to add two honorable mentions.. the toads and frogs I often see around my home. Although, there is no direct care, I like to think I have a relationship with each of them.) I currently have a family Golden Retriever named Sasha. We call her Sushie and Sashimi for short :) I've also have had the gift of being around friends' and families' animals, including goats, chickens, ducks, bunnies, rats, cats, and dogs. Also, I used to volunteer at Animal Friends, which is now called Heal Animal Rescue. It was a great experience being able to care for dogs that didn't have a permanent home or company. Some of the care I gave included cleaning their kennels to ensure that each dog had a healthy environment to live in, exercising with them, ensuring they had fresh food and water, and simply offering them company, especially since their visitors may have been sparse outside of us volunteers and staff. Animals are God's precious creatures. Each and every one is beautiful and created by God. I believe that we have been given the opportunity to steward them well and with love. Thus, it would be an honor and privilege to take care of your precious loved one. My work schedule is partially remote, so I can be available on certain week days during standard 8:30-4 PM work hours. My remote days are currently Mondays and Tuesday. In the evenings and weekends, I can be free too with notice! To ensure the safety of everyone, I request a walk-through of items and places I'd be using at your home prior to care. This may include showing me important things like, how your pet gate opens and closes, how your front door locks, how to administer certain medicine, etc. I appreciate any and all information about the pet and home so that we can all have a lovely experience :)

“Laura is wonderful. Very responsive -- loves a good walk with Stella -- and very flexible. Love working with Laura (and Stella loves when she visits, too!)”

“I am very happy I chose Mamie to dogsit my Rosie for my week long vacation. She sent regular updates about Rosie’s mood, activities and cute little anecdotes, as well as lots of pictures. Besides the updates Mamie was quick to reply to messages and was even so kind as to pick up a refill that Rosie needed. I would definitely rebook her :)”

“Gabrielle took great care of our cats and was in constant communication with us about how they were doing, including cleaning up a plant that one had knocked over. She also sent lots of pictures which was appreciated.”

About: I grew up around all kinds of animals and love them. I currently have cats, dogs and fish if my own. I am willing to consider overnight stays in your home while you are gone. I would love the chance to stop in and check on your furry family members while you are gone to spend time with them. I have experience pet sitting dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, guinea pigs, bearded dragons and chickens. I work full time during the day but am available in the evenings. If I am close by I may be able to accommodate a drop in visit during my lunch break from work. For my own dog I have a fenced in yard. I also have I door cats in my home. I am willing to consider overnight stays in your home to be able to care for your pets in the comfort of their home to help reduce stress on your pets Familiar surroundings are often calming and important to you and your pet.

About: Hi!! My name is Taylor, and I am a very passionate animal lover:) I have two Frenchies and am an experienced foster Mom through East Coast Bulldog Rescue. I own a local cleaning company, and the best part of my job is all the pets I get to see! I grew up with cats and absolutely adore them. I am experienced with animals with medical needs, senior pets, I can administer any and all medication, and am not scared of a lengthy specific routine:) I am a brachycephalic dog specialist, so any dog or cat is in good hands with me. I treat every animal like they are my own, so cuddles and attention are to be expected when your pet is in my care. I own a local business, but due to my amazing employees I work 5 hours a week or less. Animals are my life, so a typical day for me revolves around hanging out with my pups and relaxing on our balcony/playing with their toys/going for walks! I live in a big two story home, but have fences at the stairs to prevent any pups going up or down unattended. I do not have a fenced in yard, but my next door neighbor does (they have no kids or pets), and I have full access to that yard. I live in a very walkable neighborhood, and love to push my pups in their stroller in the evenings! If I am staying in your home, I will adhere to any and all restrictions or safety practices you have in place for your pets.

“Mariah was great! She was on time, communicated well, and sent some pics of our sweet boys. Will definitely reach out to Mariah again next time we need a sitter!”

“Jackie is a fantastic sitter! Dexter warmed up to her quickly and she took such good care of him. She was extremely attentive to his needs and great at communicating and providing updates on how he was doing each day. I really appreciate how she went the extra mile to make sure Dexter felt comfortable, safe and happy! It was amazing to have peace of mind while being away that my dog was in great hands. Will definitely be hiring Jackie again!”

Julie D.

“Chelsea took care of our dog and two cats recently and did an amazing job. She really goes above and beyond and I will definitely ask Chelsea to help out again. Our animals have unique needs and Chelsea was able to do it all, the animals also had a great time with her!”

“Hannah is responsive and communicated well. She was available on short notice and was able to do a meet and greet prior to watching the gals this weekend. She sent pictures and updates and left the house as she found it.”

“This was our first time entrusting Patrick with our house and pups. We were quite confident in our decision when, during the meet and greet, Patrick inquired about our care routines in detail, which we hadn’t been asked before. Throughout our trip, Patrick kept us informed about our pups’ well-being by sending us pictures of their adventures. We appreciated receiving these updates as they allowed us to stay connected while we were away. We highly recommend Patrick for future dog-sitting needs and believe he would be a great fit for your requirements as well.”
