House Sitting in Ostrander

“Emily took the absolute best care of our 2 dogs! She truly made our vacation worry free, sent great updates and pictures. Honestly the first time we’ve left our babies and didn’t feel the need to check on them constantly because she was so proactive. So happy we found her!”

Carrissa T.

“Jackie is a lifesaver! She did an excellent job with my two (older) dogs who stick to a certain routine. She communicated with me all the time. I am so happy I found her!”

Patricia M.

“Derek was fantastic. We booked a housesitting with him on very short notice (11 hours). He was great with our 3 dogs and 4 cats and kept the house clean. Thank you SO much.”

Crystal K.

“This is the first house sitting experience with Carolyne and I believe it went well! She was great at responding to my questions and sent me daily updates as requested. Carolyne seems very easy going and easy to work with and Moosie loved her and her kids! I would not hesitate to hire her again!”

Lisa S.

“Maggie and Willow are wonderful. Maggie stayed at my house for almost two weeks on a last minute booking. She sent updates daily and gave me peace of mind while I was gone. Would definitely book with her again!”

Sierra D.

“Janel took excellent care of our two kitties and a sassy Sheltie. The all warmed up to her in no time. I highly recommend her and look forward to her coming back in October. She kept us informed and shared adorable pictures with us.”

About: I've taken care of pet dogs and cats since I was 12. I've also helped some of my neighbors and relatives with their pets while theywere away. Though I'm currently working full time I can take care of anyone's pets, and promptly intimate the owners in advance about my absence or when I would be unavailable. I have roommates so I can do house sitting only in the client's place, and I will do my best with all.my experience to keep their pet happy and comfortable.

“Kiera was awesome! She took great care of our dog, first and foremost. But, in addition to that, I think our house was cleaner when we returned than when we left AND there was a snowstorm while we were gone and she shoveled the snow! Very happy with the experience and would definitely recommend Kiera. :)”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and currently have a 13-year-old dog, so I understand the care, patience, and attention they need at every stage. I also worked as a Canine Coach in a professional dog daycare, where I supervised group play, monitored behavior, and ensured the safety of multiple dogs at once. Through both personal and professional experience, I’ve developed a strong ability to read dog body language, stay calm in different situations, and create a safe, positive environment. I treat every dog like my own, whether that means matching a high-energy pup or providing extra care for older dogs. I prioritize consistency, clear communication, and attentive care so pet parents feel confident and at ease. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available at a variety of times, including daytime, evenings, and weekends, which allows me to provide consistent and attentive care. As I pursue a future full-time Monday–Friday position, I plan to continue pet care with a strong focus on evening and weekend availability, while still offering additional flexibility when possible. I’m committed to being reliable, communicative, and maintaining consistent, high-quality care so both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident. For dog walking and drop-in visits, I focus on providing attentive, individualized care tailored to each pet’s needs and routine. During walks, I prioritize safety, proper leash handling, and making sure dogs get both physical activity and mental stimulation at a pace that suits them. For drop-in visits, I ensure pets are well cared for by refreshing food and water, providing playtime or enrichment, and giving them attention and companionship. I also carefully monitor behavior, energy levels, and overall well-being during each visit, and I always respect the pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions. I make sure to communicate clearly with pet parents, including updates and photos if desired, so they feel confident and connected while they’re away.

“Tori was wonderful with both of our animals! Very responsive and attentive. She sent us lots of photos throughout her time. Will book again!”

“This was the first time I used a house sitter. I was a little leery, but Anabelle was a timely communicator as we worked through some initial bumps. She was respectful of my requests and our pup seemed to enjoy spending time with her. I would use her again.”

Lisa S.

“Ashely was incredible!!! She gave great updates and was very easy to communicate with. My dog loved her! She also took fantastic care of my apartment while I was gone. I will for sure be booking with Ashley again! Thanks for everything Ashley!!!”

About: I've been caring for animals my entire life and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and reliable companion while you're away, I strive to provide attentive, loving care tailored to their individual needs. I work from home so I can prioritize your pets needs around the clock. My schedule can work seamlessly with puppies or small dogs that need frequent bathroom breaks. At home, I care for my own dog like family. I have a Frenchie who I absolutely adore, and her daily routine includes regular walks, playtime, and visits to the park so she can stay active and social. She’s very friendly, gentle, and loves being around other dogs, so she’s a great example of the calm, positive environment I aim to provide for any pets in my care

“Ava was fantastic. She took great care of both our dogs and our home. Highly recommended!!”

Dustin C.

“This was my first time leaving my two dogs with someone other than family. Kailyn did an amazing job with my two dogs who have a lot of behavioral issues that require special considerations (feeding and walking separately, medications, etc). She sent me pics and videos of the dogs too. Highly recommend!”

Amber B.

“I could see the love that Kylie had for animals when we first met with her. She came by twice in advance of our trip to get the dogs, especially Miller, comfortable with her. The only thing that keeps me from giving her 5 stars is that except for the first day, I had to initiate any check-ins with her. Once I did that, she sent pictures, updates, etc. She did say her messages were not going through but I would expect, since she had my number, she would send text updates. I hope she gets that resolved, as I would book with her again.”

About: I’m a local mom of two boys and a lifelong animal lover, and I’d love to help care for your pets like they’re part of our family. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet—whether it’s for a quick trip or a longer vacation—so my goal is to make sure you feel completely at ease. I provide dependable, calm, and attentive care, with lots of updates so you always know how your pet is doing. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I’m home most days and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan my day around the pets I’m caring for. I’m able to provide consistent visits, walks, feeding, and attention throughout the day, and I make sure each pet stays on their normal routine as much as possible. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care, I build it into my schedule so pets feel comfortable and cared for. Because I’m not overbooked, I’m able to give each pet my full attention and make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for. I always tailor my care to each pet’s routine and personality so they feel as comfortable as possible. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping things consistent - feeding, walks, playtime, and rest all follow their normal schedule. I spend quality time with each pet so they don’t feel rushed or alone, and I’m careful to keep the home clean and secure. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is doing well.

“Pups were well cared for and loved the attention!!!”

Laura H.

“Katarinna provided us with excellent service. She is very conscientious keeping us fully informed during her stay with our dog. She was most attentive to our dog’s needs as he is a high energy dog and requires a significant amount of interaction.”

Rick T.

“Carrie was absolutely awesome!! She made sure our boys were taken care with love and compassion. We couldn't be happier and will be contacting her in the near future to stay again”
