He got packages from outside that werent supose to be delivered so that was great too. He showed up on time and stayed until our agreed upon touch down of flight very late the last night. Knowing he lives in the town we do also is nice. We will definitely get him to stay again if he's free next time we need a sitter. He even fixed our tv remote/sound bar connectivity issues.

About: I bring more than 31 years of hands-on experience caring for, rehabilitating, and living with dogs, including rescues with trauma, anxiety, digestive issues, behavioral challenges, and special needs. I hold a Master's degree in Applied Behavioral Science and have training in dog-assisted therapy, providing a deep understanding of both human and canine behavior, communication, trust-building, and emotional well-being. Every dog receives individualized attention tailored to their personality, routine, and unique needs. Through positive reinforcement, consistency, and thoughtful observation, I help dogs feel secure, relaxed, and supported. Whether your dog is energetic, anxious, shy, highly social, recovering from a difficult past, or simply accustomed to a specific routine, I adapt my approach to ensure they remain comfortable and confident. I also have experience with high-energy breeds, blind dogs and dogs requiring specialized diets or care plans. As a 5-mile daily hiker, I can provide long walks, multiple daily outings, and hikes of up to two hours. Clear communication is a priority. You'll receive regular updates and photos, so you know your pet is happy, safe, and receiving exceptional attention. I can also coordinate with veterinarians, groomers, and household service providers when needed, helping ensure continuity of care and smooth household operations. I bring 34 years of homeownership experience and eight years of remodeling experience, including the complete renovation of my lake house. This background has developed a strong awareness of home maintenance, safety, proactive problem-solving, and responsible property stewardship. As a volunteer member of a Fire Department Critical Response Team and Workforce Team, I am trained to recognize potential concerns early and respond appropriately. My attention to detail, reliability, and preventative mindset help safeguard your pets and property. I lead a quiet, responsible lifestyle and spend much of my time at home, allowing me to provide a consistent presence, attentive pet care, and regular property monitoring. Services Include: • Daily and overnight presence • Security and property checks • Mail and package collection • Plant care • Garbage and recycling management • Oversight and coordination of household and pet-care needs • Communication and coordination with service providers when needed • Monitoring of home systems and potential maintenance concerns • Careful stewardship of your home I specialize in extended house-sitting and pet-care assignments, accepting bookings of 30 to 130 days during the winter season. Clients choose me for my advanced behavioral expertise, decades of rescue and rehabilitation experience, exceptional communication, attentive home stewardship, and concierge-level service. Whether caring for a cherished companion, coordinating household needs, or maintaining a watchful presence over your property, my goal is to provide complete peace of mind, knowing both your pets and your home are in capable, caring hands. My day begins with a loving good-morning rub followed by a potty break, feeding, and exercise. Throughout the day, I incorporate walks, play, enrichment activities, affection, and regular outdoor breaks while maintaining your pet's normal routine. I enjoy ending each day with the attention most dogs love, whether that's a belly rub, cuddle time, or simply quiet companionship. I closely monitor behavior, energy levels, appetite, mobility, and daily habits so I can quickly recognize changes and respond appropriately. My flexible schedule allows me to prioritize the needs of your pet while maintaining a dependable, consistent presence. On a daily basis I maintain the cleanliness of pet-related areas, including food and water stations, entryways, and frequently used spaces. When a home has a pet door, I ensure the yard remains clean through daily waste removal. My goal is to provide an enriching environment where your pet feels secure, comfortable, and loved throughout your stay away from home. I provide a reliable daily and overnight presence, along with regular property walk-throughs. During severe weather, I perform additional inspections to identify potential concerns early and take appropriate preventative measures when possible. I maintain a calm, quiet environment that allows me to remain highly attuned to both your pet's well-being and any household conditions that may require attention. I am equally attentive to conditions on and around the property that could affect your home's safety and security. For example, during a recent house sit, I proactively cleared leaves and debris from nearby storm drains before heavy rain to help reduce the risk of localized flooding. Years of property stewardship have strengthened my ability to recognize developing issues and address them before they become larger concerns. Clients frequently share that they experience a genuine sense of peace and ease while away, knowing their pets and home are being cared for with exceptional attention, responsibility, and respect. They appreciate the strong bonds I develop with their pets and the clean, thoughtfully cared for home they come back to. Upon request, I can stock a reasonable number of essential grocery items prior to your return, helping ensure a comfortable and seamless homecoming.

About: As a lifelong dog lover, I’ve been caring for dogs since childhood, growing up with Labrador Retrievers and learning firsthand the importance of patience, consistency, and affection. Over the years, I’ve helped whelp litters, fostered rescue dogs (including one who became a beloved member of our family), and cared for dogs of all ages and temperaments. My home is peaceful and dog-friendly, shared with my sweet mixed-breed dog, Prema, and features a large, securely fenced yard for safe play and exploration. Daily walks, plenty of attention, and a calm, nurturing environment ensure that every dog in my care feels comfortable, loved, and right at home. I’m currently working from home, part-time, and teaching yoga at a nearby gym a couple of days a week, so your sweet pet would rarely be home on their own. My single-story home has a large, fenced yard where your dog can roam freely to play, take a sunbath, or chase butterflies. My 32 lb dog, Prema, will keep your dog company on daily walks and at home. The home has a doggie door, so your dog is free to roam in the house and outside. The doggie door is locked at night. Ideally, you would supply you dog’s favorite bed (although we have extras) a collar and leash, and preferred food with instructions on feeding timing, amount, etc. I want your pet to feel happy, safe, and have fun while here. 🦮

“Amazing Syd took care of my four dogs and my house was clean when we came back home. Definitely recommend her to watch you’re house and pups.”

About: I am an energetic and loving mama and wife. I have one chick left at home in the nest. Our elderly Black Lab, Bo just recently crossed the Rainbow Bridge at 14. I am a teacher by trade, turned small woman business owner, quite by accident. When I am not gathering women together for writing classes, workshops and retreats, you will find me hiking, dancing in my living room, or singing at red lights. I adore my family which includes my patient husband and 5 daughters. Due to my strong sense of accountability, I have become the “go-to” girl amongst friends and family to care for their homes and pets while they are gone. If I stay in your home, I intentionally leave it better than when I arrived because that is how I would like to return after a trip. I lovingly care for your space and Poochie as if they are my own. Being an avid hiker and walker, I look forward to opportunities for fitting active pet care into my daily routine. I miss our beloved Black Lab and live to love other doggos! But if you have an elderly pup who needs some extra chill snuggles, I am that girl, too. Since 2024, I have been caring for people’s dogs through Trusted Housesitters. Each time I sit in someone's home, I treat the dog and space as if they are my own. Due to my organization, reliability, self-sufficiency, cleanliness, and the way that I care for pets, I have earned over twenty 5-star reviews.

“Melanie was beyond amazing! She took phenomenal care of my kitty cat and gracefully dealt with problems at my house while I was out of town, such as unexpected inspections and fire alarms. She also is a great photographer and sent fantastic pictures every day!”

About: I have 8+ years of experience with dogs of several different breeds. I will treat your dog like the king or queen they truly are. I currently work full time in person but have plenty of flexibility throughout my day to care for your pet when needed throughout the day. I ensure safety at all times while also making sure your animal is having a fun, playful, unique, healthy, enjoyable, and interactive time as well.

About: I work fully remote and create my own schedule so I am flexible and available to care for your pets and home! I raised my own working breed dog from when he was a puppy and have continuously worked on training and developing a relationship with him based on positive reinforcement, trust, and lots of love. I believe in caring for our fur babies like the intelligent, sweet, and sensitive gifts that they are, and tending to each pet’s individual needs and personalities. I love to exercise and be outdoors and you can find me out hiking, trail running, and enjoying what nature has to offer. And after some exercise and fun outside, there’s nothing better than to come home and rest for snuggles and naps. As someone who has used pet sitting services for my own dog many times, I know how important and appreciated it is to receive clear communication and photos from the sitter, so I make sure to send updates so that you have peace of mind that all is taken care of. I have years of experience with pet and house sitting and am a responsible, communicative, tidy, and caring individual. My partner is able to watch our dog while I am away pet and house sitting. I work remotely and create my own schedule so I am fully available and have the flexibility to be with and care for your pets and home. I am used to following a routine for taking dogs out for their walks and feeding them their meals. I’m happy to tailor exercise and activities to your pet’s needs, and also provide lots of attention and cuddles.
