House Sitting in Oxford

About: I have had a 4 legged companion nearly my entire life. Dogs and I tend to have a mutual understanding and respect for each other. I have worked with teacup sized all the way to extra large dogs with complete comfort in my ability to communicate with and manage dogs. Most clients decide to keep coming back even if it's just to have a play date in the fenced in yard. I work from home currently with my own attention seeking dog, he would love a friend and I may as well take care of more dogs since it's second nature to me. Depends on what the client wants. I play chase, tug, fetch, "what's that" with my dog. If the weather is nice I will leave the back door open so he can come in and go out as he pleases. Water is always down, treats and food are given by me. I don't have a kennel but if you want your dog to have one I welcome them in my home.

“What a lovely dog sitter. Kitty looked after my little chi(s) as if they were her own. Also took very good care of our home. We've used her twice and will definitely book with her again in future.”

Debbie A.

“Kristina was outstanding. We have 3 dogs & 2 cats that she sat for, for over a week. She kept me up to date with pictures and notes every single day. She took out my garbage, brought up the bins, brought in mail,& left a detailed note when we returned about each pet. I think they’re all going to miss her, so I’m definitely hiring her again. It’s a great feeling to know someone is loving on your pet while you’re away, & I had total peace of mind my entire vacation thanks to Kristina.”

“Anna was great! Our pets were well taken care of and she was respectful of our home. She sent us photos as requested too. Will definitely book with her again.”

“Kristy took great care of Lucy, she sent pictures and kept me updated on how she was doing. It was nice not to worry and be able to enjoy my time away. She respected all my rules and took really good care of my home.”

“Melissa was absolutely amazing, this is the first time that I have ever left my little guy home with a sitter and she was absolutely amazing with him. She followed directions to a tee when it came to his meds and getting to know him I already have her booked for next Saturday. My little guy is my life and my heart and she took care of him like I would, she asked questions and she did absolutely fantastic. I would recommend Melissa for anybody who has fear, anxiety or stress over leaving their pets. Melissa gets five stars for me because she is a pet star in my book.”

About: With 14 animals of my own and over 5 years of pet sitting experience, I truly understand every pet’s unique needs. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every animal like family. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or specialized care, your pet will feel right at home with me. What sets me apart is my deep, hands-on knowledge of animal behavior and genuine passion for giving pets the love and attention they deserve. I currently don’t work anywhere else which gives me plenty of time in the mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends to focus on pet care. Since animals are a huge part of my life already, caring for pets naturally fits into my daily routine. Whether it’s evening walks, weekend stays, or afternoon check-ins, I’m flexible and committed to making sure your pet feels loved and well-cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect their space and routines. I make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I follow all instructions carefully—whether it’s feeding, walks, medications, or playtime—and keep things clean and calm. My goal is to make your pet feel like you’re still there, providing peace of mind for both of you.

“Carolina was stellar! We felt so at ease with our 3 pups at home- all with very unique needs. She communicated with us everyday and shared updates of their fun! We came home to our pups relaxed and content, all evidence of the love they got all week.”

Laura M.

“After she took such good care of my cats the last time I went out of town, I was very happy and relieved to be able to hire Alexandra again. She takes such good care of my kitties and is very sweet with them, and I feel totally comfortable knowing I don't have to worry about them when she's there. Highly, highly recommend. ❤️”

About: I have worked with many different dogs including dogs who require medication, dogs with anxiety, dogs who are slow to warm up to people and dogs with energetic personalities. I also work very well with cats and have a lot of experience caring for both indoor and outdoor cats. My family has owned pets ever since I was a kid so I have grown up with animals and am very comfortable around them. As an entrepreneur I have a very open schedule. I am available all times of day on weekdays and frequently have availability for weekends. I have some availability for Holliday’s. I closely follow the owners instructions for how they want their house and pets treated while I’m there. If you do not have a yard to let your pets roam free in I am able to take them on walks as often as needed. I follow feeding instructions and I am extra careful to make sure that dogs with special diets get what is needed and don’t receive what they can’t have.

“Elyse was so great! My dog grew to love her quickly. She is friendly and sends a good amount of updates! I will definitely book her regularly.”

Nikki Ann M.

“I was great having a dog sitter like David, someone who spent a lot of time with my dogs and was very trustworthy. We had good communication while I was out of town. The dogs seemed to really like him. I would highly recommend him to take care of your pets.”

About: I’ve always loved being around animas, I’ve watched my neighbors dog since I was 11-12 years old, I still watch her every now and then! I am currently doing online college classes and babysitting from 3pm-6:30pm on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and fridays. So I have a good amount of open availability! I will always make sure your pet has fresh, clean water and always goes potty! I always clean up after myself, and I put everything back where I found it.

About: Hi, I’m Maddy! I’m a reliable and responsible pet sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs. Whether it’s going on walks, playing, or just keeping your pup company, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, energy level, and routine. I take the time to follow your instructions closely so your dog’s schedule stays consistent. My goal is to make your dog feel happy, relaxed, and at ease—even when you’re not home. While I’ve had cats my entire life, I’ve spent many years caring for family dogs and dog-sitting regularly. Through that experience, I’ve become comfortable handling different temperaments and energy levels, and I’ve learned how to build trust quickly with new dogs. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from pit bull mixes to mid-sized doodles to small Maltese. I’m confident working with a variety of breeds, whether they’re energetic and playful or more calm and relaxed. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight stays in your dog’s home. I also provide regular updates with plenty of photos of your pup, so you can feel confident knowing your dog is in good hands. Pet care fits easily into my routine right now because I have a lot of availability this summer. I’m only taking a few college classes, so my schedule is very flexible. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, stick closely to their routines, and be available for walks, drop-in visits, or extended care throughout the week. I currently provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. During visits, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific needs your pet may have. I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I also keep your home tidy and respect your space. Communication is very important to me, so I provide regular updates and photos to keep you informed and give you peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I love caring for pets of all ages and breeds, from playful puppies to gentle senior dogs and cats. I’m skilled in giving medications, as I care for my own senior dog. I can maintain special diets, and provide physical activity, as well as mental stimulation to keep pets happy and healthy. What sets me apart is my ability to read each animal’s special needs, as I have many pets of my own. I have much patience and compassion when it comes to pets, whether it’s training a puppy, assisting a senior pet with mobility, or simply offering cuddles and attention. I treat each and every pet as my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around feedings, walks, playtime, and check ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention and care. I’m flexible and reliable, so I can accommodate different routines, whether that’s early mornings, evenings, or special care needs. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, and I make it a priority, not something I squeeze in. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and playtime instructions closely, while giving plenty of attention and affection. I keep the home tidy, clean up after pets (including litter boxes and feeding areas), and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is well cared for.

“Bonnie was absolutely wonderful with our dog Bruno, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Before the booking, Bonnie took the time to come over for a meet and greet so we could go through Bruno’s routine, needs, and any special instructions. That immediately gave us confidence that Bruno would be in great hands. While we were away, Bonnie sent thoughtful updates throughout the day, which we really appreciated. She was a fantastic communicator, prompt, reliable, and very attentive. She took Bruno on a nice long walk, and the sweetest surprise was when she gave him a little St. Patrick’s Day scarf. It was adorable and showed just how much care she puts into the dogs she looks after. When we returned home, she had also left a lovely “thank you for choosing me to look after Bruno” card along with special treats for him. Such a thoughtful touch. Bonnie was incredibly gentle, kind, and clearly loves what she does. We completely trust her with both our dog and our home, and we would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter. Thank you again, Bonnie, Bruno already misses you! 🐾”

She was extremely friendly and eager to bond with my cats to make them as comfortable as possible while we were gone. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates, which I really enjoyed. She also left the house spotless. Thanks again McKenzie, I’m sure we will be contacting you again!”
