House Sitting in Oxford

About: With a combination of over 45 years of hands-on pet care and ownership, we understand how to meet the unique needs of dogs, cats, and other small animals. From daily walks to specific dietary and other needs, we tailor care to match your pet's routine and personality! We're familiar with common training techniques/commands and behavior cues. We always treat your home with respect, ensuring cleanliness , safety, and security while you're away. You'll receive regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pets are thriving in our care! We do our best to go beyond basic pet sitting and provide a super loving and stress-free environment for your fur babies! We want to make sure your pets feel at home, even when you're away! I’ve incorporated daily and weekly pet care into my routine by setting aside specific times for feeding, grooming, play, and walks. It’s become a natural part of my schedule, and I enjoy the structure it brings to my day. Taking care of my pets is rewarding, and it helps me stay mindful of balancing responsibilities with quality time. I will come back to this. I wrote this out and need to find it and come back and type it here and will do that shortly.

“Kuennen took great care of my Willie boy! Communication was great, she sent pictures, and she made sure he wasn’t too anxious when I was gone and there were fireworks for the holiday.”

“Jackie was great and we loved having her watch our fur babies! She communicated well and sent daily photos, and we appreciated her care and attention especially during the heatwave! She is very caring and tidy; she did a great job housesitting. We’d love to have her pet-sit in the future.”

“Haley was great with our dog, Harley. Conscientious and very caring. She took him on several walks and gave him plenty of love. Helped out with packages delivered and mail, too.”

“Mika is a reactive dog around strangers, and this was her very first time staying alone without me — so it wasn’t an easy situation. The first few hours were tough, but Sky, with so much patience, love, and sensitivity, managed to earn Mika’s trust and affection on the very first day. It was truly amazing. 🤩 On top of that, Sky gave me so much peace of mind by sending frequent updates and photos of Mika, which really helped ease my anxiety. ADEMÁS que habla español, mi idioma nativo, así que no pude estar más cómoda en nuestra comunicación. Sky —a name that couldn’t be more fitting— is a kind, respectful, communicative, and very responsible young woman. I would trust her with Mika again a thousand times over. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Sky! 💖”

“Nicole has a natural instinct with dogs. She took time to meet our 3 dogs twice before she would be staying at our house for 3 days. The dogs welcomed her easily. We enjoyed the pictures of the dogs while we were away. I look forward to having Nicole dog sitting again.”

About: I grew up with a fur baby, pet sitting and walking for my neighbors, and helped train my parents two new mini bernedoodles! 🐾 Pets have always had a special place in my heart and I love to show them love! I am a recent college graduate with lots of free time on my hands this summer before I soon begin working as a nurse! :) When caring for your pets, my priority is their safety, comfort, and happiness! I will follow your instructions carefully; such as feeding/walk schedules, medication needs, and favorite toys or activities! Please share anything special you would like me to know your pet and their typical routine 🤍🦮🐩

“Anden did a great job with our two boxers, one of which is very shy with new people. Didn’t take long for Max to warm up and get comfortable with Anden. Thanks again!”

“Tiffany took great care of our dog Cody. Her daughter was great with Cody also. We have used her twice for house sitting Cody.”

About: My name is Nicole and my husband’s name is Zach. I’m a dental hygienist and work Tuesday to Friday. We have 4 precious fur babies, 2 cats Dexter and Teddy, and 2 dogs Arie and Reggie. Arie is a border collie who is 13 years old and Reggie is a Bernese Mountain dog who is 3. Reggie is 127 pounds so I have experience with large dogs. I also have experience with senior dogs. I work full time as a dental hygienist Tuesday to Friday so I’m currently available Saturday-Monday. I would also be available after 5:30pm Tuesday-Friday if needed. Right now my senior dog is battling cancer so I’m not available to board at my house but can come to your home and take care of your fur babies.

“Sierra was wonderful. She sent regular updates, asked questions when she was unsure, and left our home as clean as we left it. Sierra even picked up a large outdoor plant that was knocked over during severe wind. I have already booked her for another pet sitting job next month and would recommend her to anyone!”

“Des has been wonderful to work with! I hired her to house sit 12 days for my cat, dog, and two rabbits while I was on a trip. My dog is nervous around new people and protective of her home, so Des slowly worked on getting her comfortable by doing drop-ins and walks before my trip. My dog warmed up to her quickly! I felt so confident leaving my furbabies with her, and I loved the detailed updates she gave me with multiple pictures!”

“Sadie did an amazing job taking care of our boys! She was thrown a few curve balls throughout our booking (unplanned med passing to our pup for an unexpected UTI diagnosis and getting locked out of the house due to tech problems with the keypad) and she rolled with the punches with no complaints and handled them beautifully. She sent so many pictures it felt like we never left and our boys looked so happy in each one! We’ll definitely be booking with Sadie again for our next trip!!”

About: I have owned many dogs in my life time. I can deal with dogs who don’t do well on a leash as well as senior dogs. I am located in Iowa City I am starting a new job in the beginning of July so in the meantime I’m free every day for drop in visits or boarding. Once my job starts I will only be free Friday-Sunday I live in a safe apartment complex with a pad lock on the front door so your pet will be safe. Experience with many types of dogs.

“Amber was phenomenal with my dog, Arya, while I was out of the country!! She house sat for me and sent me daily updates and photos so I never had to worry how things were. I came home to a very happy pup! I can’t recommend her enough and will be using her again and again!”

About: I have grown up living with 2+ large dogs in the house always. I am a huge dog lover and love animals in general. Recently I have also become a cat owner. I’m currently a full-time student and part-time employee in a management position. I am looking to get a little more income and broaden my experience with pet care. I will not provide in home pet care. I will instead be able to come to clients homes to care for their pets. Thank you!

“Robert was amazing! I was very grateful he was able to watch Buzz & Layla for a couple days on such short notice. He always kept me updated with plenty of pictures of them while I was gone of them smiling and playing.I knew my dogs were in good hands and would highly recommend Robert for those in the area!”

About: I have two mini goldendoodles who are my life. I've had them for over 6 years and they bring so much joy to my life! They love to play with other dogs and I'm always spoiling them. I've watched other pups before, giving them walks, spoiling them rotten. I'm very punctual and care for every dog like they're my own! Currently don’t have a full time job so I have availability all day! If you need a full sitter, they are more than happy to come to my house and spend time with my pups. I'm free after 5PM and on the weekends! I don't have a fenced in backyard but I do have two pups who can keep your baby entertained and wear them out! I give the best cuddles and love as it kills me to leave my pups with someone else so I get it! I can facetime whenever you'd like if it's an overnight stay, whatever makes you feel comfortable! :)

“Will definitely be using him in the future. Pups were well loved and cared for. Daily updates and pictures sent. Thank you for loving our pups.”

About: I love both dogs and cats like their my own. I have 20+ years experience with caring for pets. I have experience with walking, bathing, brushing, and playing with cats and dogs. I have a day time job Monday-Friday 8-4:30pm. I would be able to take the dogs out before work, and when I get home. My husband works from home 2-3 days a week and would be available to be home to take care of your fur baby during every Thursday and Friday. On the weekends, I am able to take dogs out at at least every 2-4 hours. Thursdays/Fridays, my husband will be helping me with potty breaks while I am at my day job. I do not have a fenced in area, but will take your fur-baby out as often as needed between my husband and I both. We will use a leash to keep your pet safe!
