House Sitting Oxford

“Still the BEST!! Oksana and her sweet husband are like having their favorite aunt and uncle come to visit! I don’t want to continue to say too many good things about them or they won’t be available for my babies!! 🩷 Seriously, they are the first sitters I have had that I don’t worry about my furry children at least a little bit. Now I just miss them and can’t wait to see them! They still wonder where their favorite sitters are, but they know they will see them again!!”

About: I’ve had both cats and dogs since I was 5, so caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. I’m comfortable with their daily care, routines, and different personalities. I also understand pet body language and know how important it is to recognize when a pet is happy, nervous, uncomfortable or just needs some space. I’m patient, attentive and will treat your pets with the same love and care I give my own. I currently work full time, so my availability is more limited during my regular work schedule. However, my workplace will be temporarily closing for about a month in October, which will give me much more flexibility and availability to care for pets during that time. I’m happy to work with owners to find times that fit both of our schedules. I plan to care for pets in their own homes, where they can stay comfortable and in their familiar environment. I’ll follow their normal routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any other care instructions provided by their owner. I’ll also give them plenty of attention, patience, and affection while make sure they feel safe and comfortable.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been something I truly enjoy. My family has always said that one of my best qualities is how naturally I connect with animals. I have a calm, patient, and loving personality, and I treat every pet with kindness and respect. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing outside, or just having someone to keep them company, I’m happy to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, so I’ll follow your instructions carefully and give your furry friend the same care and attention I would give my own. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and my goal is to make both you and your pet feel comfortable. I’ll always provide dependable care, lots of affection, and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my schedule because I currently work a part-time job, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the week. I’ll also be starting community college soon, but I’ll only be attending classes two days a week. This allows me to dedicate time to walking, playing with, and caring for pets while making sure they receive the attention and love they deserve. I’m dependable, organized, and committed to providing reliable care. Whether your pet needs a daily walk, drop-in visits, or extra attention while you’re away, I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. I understand how important routines are for pets, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate your schedule and your pet’s individual needs. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always make their safety, comfort, and happiness my top priorities. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, fresh water, medication if needed, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection so they feel comfortable while their family is away. I also keep their environment clean, watch for any changes in their behavior, and provide regular updates so owners can have peace of mind. I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and care that I would give to my own.

“She was amazing!! Always sending photos and updating!”

“Marcus was great, he is just a nice person, respectful and polite. He was great with Bear and I believe Bear felt very comfortable with him. He brought in my flag since it was very windy and folded it beautifully into a respectful triangle. He did it before I even thought to ask. I think he's the best!”

About: I have professional experience working at a veterinary kennel and am trained in proper medication and subcutaneous fluid administration. I also know how to work with anxious, elderly, and disabled pets. I love getting to know each pet’s personal needs and quirks in order to give them the best care possible! I am a recent college graduate and am doing pet sitting full time! This means I will be able to schedule my days around your pet‘s needs. My care includes feeding, walking, continuation of training, and giving pets all the love they deserve! I will be at your house as much as I can to give your pet the best experience. I am willing to help pets that need assistance getting around the house or that have other special needs. Overall, I want to create as safe, comforting, and loving of a space as possible for your pets while you’re away.

“Nikki was so great!! She responded right away and we felt very comfortable leaving our senior dog in her care. We would definitely book her services again!”

Alexandra A.

“Melissa and her family are great!! We have a challenging puppy and she can give anyone a run for their money. Melissa was up for the challenge and handled our girl in stride. She was great with communication before and during the stay. Melissa checked in daily with photos and reports of our girls behavior and progress. We brought her home tired out and thats pretty hard to do with a 9 month old bloodhound. We appreciate Melissa and will definitely be using her again. 100% Recommend!!”

“I’m so grateful for the amazing care Garrett provided for my cat, Adele. He was attentive, responsible, and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Adel was clearly very well taken care of and comfortable, and I could tell she received a lot of attention and care. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

About: I’ve owned family dogs since I can remember we’ve always had a pet. I’ve cat sit for my sister and her friends on multiple occasions, dog sit for my aunt, watch family friends dogs, and have walked anything from a terrier to a Great Pyrenees. I’m currently a student at Wake Tech and work two part time jobs. The jobs don’t take up much of my time during the week and I utilize time management well, so school isn’t usually too busy unless it’s around tests or exams. I can get up whenever I need to and get sleep whenever I find the time I’m flexible in where I can be and for how long. My homes isn’t good for pet care as I still live with my parents and have a dog of my own living here, but I can assure you in your home I will care for your pet like it’s my own and treat them and your home with the utmost respect. I can do whatever is necessary to take care of my clients pet’s whether that’s just being around them because they like company, taking them for walks, feeding them, and ensuring their safety above all else.

About: I’ve taken care of all types of dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, spiders, snakes and even children lol for family and friends since I was 13! I’m currently working full-time Monday thru Friday onsite but can be very flexible! I am available in the mornings until 9:00am and available after 3:30pm. I have an open schedule on weekends! We stay in a gated apartment complex and have multiple neighborhoods and a dog park around for a variety of walking paths and adventures! We have a bengal cat who loves outside so we walk her almost every day, she is great with the dogs and children. I am all about making sure the pet owner is comfortable with their pet staying with us. I stay on the schedule and rules provided by the pet owner. I am punctual and always aware of my surroundings.

About: I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m calm, reliable, and attentive to the little details, whether that’s sticking to feeding routines, giving extra care to anxious or senior pets, or sending photo updates so you always feel connected. My goal is to give you peace of mind and your pet a loving home-away-from-home! As a graduate student with a very flexible schedule, I’m able to give pets plenty of time and attention throughout the day. I love taking study breaks for walks, playtime, or cuddles. Whether it’s early mornings, mid-day check-ins, or evening care, I can easily adjust to your pet’s needs and keep their routine consistent and comforting. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and personality, and I follow all owner instructions closely. I keep a clean, calm environment and pay attention to every detail, from secure leashes on walks to cozy rest spaces indoors. My goal is for every pet to feel at ease and for you to know they’re in good hands.

About: My experience begins with caring for my own pets and my family's pets. I owned 2 female Lionhead rabbits as a child who I still reminisce about to this day. During this time I also afforded the opportunity to care for a close friend's male Holland Lop rabbit! In addition to this, my parents had their own chickens that I adored; I cleaned their coop, fed them daily, and would pet them for hours. My experience with dogs is quite extensive: I've washed, walked, and administered medication for elderly dogs as well as young ones, cared for ones with anxiety, played with energetic farm dogs for hours, walked strong ones who pull at the sight of any person & animal, and walked ones who can't get close to other people & animals. My experience with cats include feral, semi feral, and house cats. I've repeatedly given overnight care for 7 semi-feral cats who's daily feeding schedule was strict & specific, one of whom required medication. In that same house was an elderly dog who had his own, separate, regimented, feeding & walking times (and demanded lots of love that I was happy to give!) Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle as someone who enjoys spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day, whether that means multiple daily visits, overnight stays, or extended drop-in sessions. I prioritize reliability and punctuality, understanding that pets thrive on routine and consistency! I'm happy to accommodate early morning or late evening visits, and I always provide photo updates so you can see your pet is happy and well-cared for. My availability is generally open throughout the week, and I'm comfortable committing to both short-term and longer-term bookings. I build my schedule around your pet's needs, not the other way around. Safety and trust are my top priorities in every pet care situation. In your home, I treat your space with the utmost respect: cleaning up after myself, securing doors and gates, following your specific instructions carefully, and maintaining your pet's established routines to minimize stress and uphold any training that has already been given to your pet(s). I'm attentive to potential hazards and ensure pets are supervised appropriately based on their temperament and needs. I follow all feeding guidelines precisely, administer medications as directed, and watch closely for any changes in behavior or health that might need attention. Due to my training as a Registered Behavioral Therapist for human, I keep detailed notes and communicate openly with pet parents, sending regular updates and photos. Whether caring for pets in your home or mine, I create a calm, secure environment where animals feel comfortable and safe. For pets staying in my home (if applicable), I ensure a pet-proofed space with separate areas for different animals if needed, and I never leave pets unsupervised in potentially stressful situations. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my first concern.

About: I have raised dogs/puppies my entire life up until recently when my family's three dogs passed away. I have lots of free time to spend with furry friends and will take extra care for their needs, as my last employer had 2 dogs and 2 cats: each with special diets and routines. I currently am taking a gap year from university. Therefore, my schedule is free anytime and any day- excluding some afternoons on a week by week basis. I make sure to complete everything necessary in the listed instructions, and then use my free time to play and pet the animals. I will respect any boundaries set: all I require is specific instructions to follow.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was ten years old. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to feed, walk, sit, bathe and socialize their dogs. I am a business person, so my schedule is flexible for all forms of pet care. I am looking to fill my time with as many pet experiences as possible. I walk every day, multiple times a day with my hound pup. The outdoors is a great place for me to have exercise and peace of mind alongside your pup while we bond and explore.

“Meredith was great taking care of my dog over Thanksgiving. She was communicative and I appreciate all the love she gave him while we were gone for the holiday!”
