Pet Sitting Oxford

“Dylan did a fantastic job with our menagerie while we were gone for just over a week. Dylan had to deal with one dog and three cats (though two cats decided to play invisible for the duration - they are very skittish). I believe Dylan went over and above what we asked for and we would certainly have no hesitation in recommending Dylan to any prospective clients. Dylan is obviously a true animal lover. We will definitely be requesting Dylan look after our pets in the future should we require this type of service again. Dylan provided regular updates with photos and it was obvious from the huge grin on our little dogs face (she's a smiler) that she was loving every minute of the attention. One of the cats even showed face to get in on the action. A heartfelt thanks goes out to Dylan for the service he provided.”

“Marian is AMAZING. I can't say enough good things. She showed up exactly when asked to each time, left us a detailed report, and tons of pictures for each visit. We will use her every time we need someone in the future. I couldn't recommend Marian enough!”

About: Hi! I’m a junior at the University of Pittsburgh and a lifelong animal lover with extensive hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. I currently have two dogs: Whiskey, my 6-year-old Yorkie, and Cosmo, my 4-year-old cockapoo. I’ve raised both since they were puppies. I’ve also cared for a golden retriever named Kimba from puppyhood, which gave me valuable experience handling larger, high-energy dogs as well. In addition to dogs, I’ve grown up around a wide variety of animals including goats and chickens, so I’m very comfortable with different environments and levels of care responsibility. Because I’ve personally raised dogs from puppy stage through adulthood, I understand the full range of needs pets can have — from training and leash manners to patience with shy or high-energy personalities. I’m confident handling walks, feeding routines, and multi-pet households. Both of my dogs have needed oral medications before (pills and liquid), so I’m familiar with getting pets to take medicine when needed. I’ve also taken care of goats and helped apply eye and ear medications, so I’m comfortable with administrating treatments. As a college student, I’m responsible with my schedule and only accept bookings I can fully commit to. My priority is making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. 🐾 EXPERIENCE HIGHLIGHTS * Raised and trained multiple dogs from puppyhood * Experience with small and large breeds * Comfortable with leash training, pulling, and energetic dogs * Experienced with shy and anxious pets * Familiar with multi-pet households * Farm animal experience (goats + chickens) * Experienced with giving medication I’m happy to care for pets who may need extra patience, structure, or attention during walks or drop-ins. 🐾 CARE STYLE I focus on making pets feel safe, calm, and comfortable. I always adjust my approach based on the animal. Whether that means more structured walks for high-energy dogs or a gentler, more reassuring approach for shy pets. I also make sure owners feel updated and at ease with clear communication and photos when requested. 🐾 MEET & GREET I’m always happy to do a meet and greet before any booking so I can get to know you, your pets, and their routine to make sure everything goes smoothly. Hope to meet your fur-babies very soon! I’m usually free after 3:30pm on weekdays except Tuesdays. I always make time for my own pets and can adjust my schedule around pet care when needed. Most weekends I have open availability and can be flexible with timing depending on what is needed. I’m good at planning ahead, so I only accept bookings I know I can fully commit to and show up on time for. When caring for pets, my main priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed whether I’m in my home or the client’s home. I always follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific instructions from the owner. I pay close attention to doors, leashes, and overall safety during walks and visits, and I make sure pets are never in stressful or unfamiliar situations unnecessarily. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space, keep things clean, and make sure everything is left how it was found. I also give pets calm attention, playtime, and supervision so they feel secure while their owner is away. If any issues come up, I communicate right away so the owner is always informed.

“Julia has watched our dogs for years. She has taken the time to get to know each one and understands exactly what they need. We have a a few dogs that need medication and Julia always ensures they get what they need. I would definitely recommend Julia to anyone looking for an honest, reliable and caring individual for their dog(s) needs.”

“Cassandra was a wonderful sitter who is motivated to connect with any pet and make them as comfortable as possible. Her communication is excellent, and always provided detailed updates on how our pet was doing without us. She also provided photos with every visit which was extremely helpful. We would definitely reach out to Cassandra to watch our dog again!”

“Mason was exceptional. She allowed me to book her literally last minute and said she could visit the pups without me home (emergency work trip). She was prompt and took great care of my pups, asking me any questions she had to best care for them. She sent me plenty of pics and the pups loved her!”

“Faith was an exceptional dog sitter who exceeded all expectations. She was punctual every day, ensuring that our pups received consistent care and attention. Faith dedicated 30 minutes each day to sit with the dogs while they did their business, showing her commitment to their well-being. Additionally, she captured lots of great pictures of the pups, which was a delightful bonus for us. Her reliability and thoughtful care made a significant difference, and we highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter.”

About: I have grown up in a house that always had 2-3 dogs living in it. I was exposed to different breeds from the most mixed supermutt to a purebred King Charles Cocker Spaniel. About 12 years ago I began pet-sitting for my in-laws who have two dogs (now 15 and 2) and two cats. They love the care I provide their animals and am their go-to pet sitter. In August 2021, we were finally lucky to expand our family with our own puppy! I work from home 100% of the time with a flexible job so I and am always available for walks or potty training! My husband works a unique shift as well which makes it easier if needed! I have a neutered fur-baby myself to keep any pets occupied! We have all the must haves for any pup like crates, bowls, and LOADS of toys!
