House Sitting in Pearl River

“Erika is a great communicator and did a great job caring for my independent dude! I appreciate her very much. I’m glad I can trust someone to stay here with my little man.”

About: I’ve owned dogs, cats, and many other pets since childhood. I worked at a doggy day care, and I spent 14 years making my best friend, Buddy, my second job. He wanted for nothing, and neither will yours! I’m looking to work up to 25 hours a week doing pet care. I can do early mornings, evenings as late as 8pm, and as many overnights as you need! If you ask me to care for your pets in your own home, I will treat them as my own. I will spend time on the ground rubbing bellies, playing fetch or chase in the backyard, and will follow all instructions regarding food and/or medications.

“Sarah was fantastic- she was flexible and able to hop in with my pup at the last minute, was super responsive, and did a wonderful and respectful job taking care of my 16 year old dog with special needs. Strongly recommended”

About: I've grown up around dogs and cats, but my professional experience with animals started when I was sixteen. I worked for the Northshore Humane Society until I left to attend LSU, but I continued to regularly volunteer with animal shelters and organizations. I've worked with dogs with behavioral difficulties (ex. anxiety, leash aggression), special-needs cats and dogs (ex. neurological issues, blindness/deafness, dementia), and elderly animals. Any kind of dog older than a nursing puppy and any kind of cat, I've dealt with! But if you have any questions about whether I'll be a good fit for your furry friend, please reach out! I just graduated from LSU and am currently in the job search process. In the meantime, I'm totally free to hang out with your pets! I always keep dogs on-leash or in a fenced backyard. I will also avoid interactions between your pet and animals from outside the home to avoid any tension or stress! I am also familiar with crate training and will crate your animal if needed when they are not under direct supervision.

“Bobbi stayed with our dog for a few day. She was so sweet. Sent pictures of our pup, was prompt, dependable and we are so glad we trusted our instincts with her. Book her for your next trip. We definitely will!!”

Happy to help when and where I'm needed along with providing any critical care that may be required.

I tend to be free majority of the week and normally the weekends as well if I don't have drill. Please feel free to message me with any availability inquiries that you may have (: If boarding, I have a fenced in yard along with a spacious home that includes french doors that I can close off from the rest of my house in case I'm babysitting a small kitten or puppy that may require a watchful eye!

Keeping your pet on a stable and home life schedule so that you can go on vacation or family gathering etc. I have a big yard but I have no fence. Your baby will be taken out on a leash for walks and restroom breaks for mine and their safety.

About: I have owned and taken care of many breeds of dogs and cats. I have experience with litter deliveries as well as administering medications. I have a great love for animals and will treat your pet as my own, with lots of snuggles, playing and lots of love. I am retired and am available for any services needed whether it be drop ins for walks, feeding or just sitting. I am also available for weekly or longer pet/house sitting. My dog is my baby, my shadow. We snuggle all the time, which I will also do with your fur baby/babies. My sister lives next door and has 6 dogs and two cats!! I keep very busy with 7 dogs daily.

About: When it comes to pet sitting, there are countless options available, but what truly sets me apart from others is a unique blend of experience, passion, and personalized service. I OFFER TAILORED CARE FOR EACH PET : I understand that each pet is unique, with their own personality, preferences, and needs. I take the time to get to know each animal, allowing me to tailor your care approach. Whether your baby is a shy kitty that needs extra gentle coaxing or an energetic dog that requires plenty of exercise, I customize my time with your furbabies to ensure each of them feel safe and loved. TOP NOTCH COMMUNICATION SKILLS : I prioritize open and honest communication with my clients. I keep you updated with regular messages ,photos, and videos to assist in reassuring you that your furry family members are in great hands. Being able to provide detailed reports on your pet's behavior and well- being makes me a reliable choice. EXTENSIVE KNOWLEDGE AND TRAINING : My background in pet care began at a very early age. I've also studied animal psychology and communication and that coupled with my empathy and compassion towards all animals allows me to stand out from the rest of the sitters on here. I am well versed in animal behavior, health, and safety protocols, enabling me to handle emergencies calmly and effectively. My expertise gives you the peace of mind knowing your furbaby is cared for by someone with vast knowledge on the animal kingdom. COMPASSIONATE AND TRUSTWORTHY : My genuine love for animals shines through in everything I do. My clients can sense my compassion and dedication, fostering a strong bond of trust. I prioritize the emotional well-being of not only the animals I care for but also the pet parents. I take your decision to trust me with one of your, if not most precious blessings in life very seriously and would never do anything to compromise that in any way. I know how stressful it can be leaving your babies and I do everything I can to make this experience as easy and as pleasant as possible. FLEXIBLE AND AVAILABLE : I understand you may have a diverse schedule with varying needs. I offer flexible scheduling options and last minute availability. The ease of my adaptability ensures I can accommodate a wide range of requests, making it easier for you to find the right care for your pets. ENGAGING ACTIVITIES AND SOCIALIZATION : I go beyond basic care by providing engaging activities and socialization opportunities for pets. Interactive playtime, daily walks/runs, and enriching exercise that stimulates your furbaby's mind. This ensures your pets are not only cared for but also entertained and happy. COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT: I am in the developmental stages of founding a non-profit organization that caters to elder animals ensuring they're loved and cared for during their final days. This is leading to a collaboration between the senior adults in our community who are looking for companionship as well. If you're interested or know someone who could benefit from this service then please let me know! PERSONAL TOUCH : Lastly, my approach is marked by a personal touch. I remember specific details about each pet, such as favorite toys, treats , or routines, and I always incorporate those into my care. My attention to detail allows you to feel confident that your pet is receiving the best possible care. I am currently taking a short break from work and will be returning on January 1, 2025. That doesn't mean I won't be available after that because of remote work and having an extremely flexible schedule but my 18 year old son will be stepping in more to provide intermittent care through out the day once I return back to work. He's my business partner and has other ventures he's involved with but Matthew has always shared my interest and love of animals and helps me when I need it. I work full-time as a Small Business Consultant for Intuit QuickBooks. This is a beautiful opportunity to enrich the lives of Small Business Owners by improving their workflows and giving them time back in their day. I work from home Monday - Friday (When Im not on break) so I'll always be at the A sneak peek into our DAILY ROUTINE: Morning care: Every morning ( unless it's too cold ) Matthew and I take the dogs for a 30 minute or longer walk. I believe that a good start to the day sets the tone for both pets and their parents. Upon returning to the house it's breakfast time and then a play session. Midday Visits : For clients that need daytime check-ins, I schedule visits that include feeding, playtime, and bathroom breaks. Evening Engagements : In the evenings, I dedicate time to provide additional walks, cuddles, and play sessions, ensuring that the furbabies receive ample attention and care. This is essential for their emotional well-being. Through out the week I maintain flexibility in my schedule to accommodate your pet's unique needs. Whether it's regular visits, overnight stays, or special requests, I am here to support you and your pet's routine. In addition to my routine, I truly believe in fostering a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your furry family. I am passionate about providing the best care possible and treat every pet as of they were my own. If you have any questions or would like to discuss your pet's specific needs ,please don't hesitate to reach out. I'll always be here to ensure that you and your pet feel at ease. Thank you for considering me as your pet sitter! I follow your care instructions and if you entrust that to me I will discuss with you a care plan. Each pet is unique and will have their unique needs.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of many breeds and sizes since I was 12, and have always had satisfied clients with no issues ever. I have worked in many different settings caring for animals including dogs, cats, horses, and goats. I have been volunteering at animal shelters and dog rescues for over 6 years, and I thoroughly enjoy my time with the animals there. I have open availability for the foreseeable future, so please don’t hesitate to reach out anytime. I am also very flexible with days and times! I am very cautious and protective when it comes to ensuring your pets’ safety and keeping them happy and healthy is my number one priority no matter what the circumstances are.

About: I have been around many different kinds of animals. Family and friends have always been able to rely on me to take care of the animals with my who heart and soul. I work part-time at a restaurant and i work mainly in the mornings and some nights. Usually only to 10-3 or 5-10. So I don’t work a whole lot. Within my clients home their animals will be given the best belly rubs and pets I can give. I will do everything with the best of my ability.

“Vivian was amazing with our two doggos. She even sent us a pic mid week to let us know how they were doing. Would highly recommend and we will book her the next time we have an extended trip planned.”

“Jennifer was excellent! Our Stella is deaf and we treat her like our child. Jennifer went above and beyond with update texts, pictures and provided us such peace of mind. We will definitely be using Jennifer in the future!”

About: I’ve taken care of every size dog with a different temper, different disabilities and energy levels. My “siblings” are two English Mastiffs! :) I have a small dog of my own and I treat her as if she is my actual child (which she is). I am currently in medical school during the week but I am available during the week after my school hours and available full-time on weekends I have a small dog that gets along with any other breed, size, cats and/or exotic animals! I have experience with pet care and administering medication when needed.

About: I have owned and looked after dogs for most of my life. I absolutely love interacting with animals and have been responsible for up to 4 dogs at a time for overnight sitting. I own a large dog, and am comfortable with most all sizes and breeds. I currently work part-time, so my schedule may vary slightly from time to time, but I am always sure that any changes are reflected in my booking availability. I have 3 dogs (two small, one large-two females, one male). All 3 are extremely friendly and LOVE to play (their favorite is tug-of-war :) )

About: I have taken care of family and friends pets on my own since I was 14 and with my mom before that. I have a senior pup who needs a little extra time, likes his food a certain way, and medication. So whether your pup is becoming a senior, just a little picky, or younger I’d love to accommodate them in anyway. I am currently back home from college looking for a part-time job or remote at home job but until that happens I am free everyday for the entire day. I do not offer pet sitting in my own home because of my senior dog and cats, but I can accommodate your pets needs in your own home if that means leashed potty breaks, watching them in a fenced backyard, and any other requests

“Grace was such an angel with our puppy. She sent pictures and Bodi updates throughout the day making us feel so comfortable. I would highly recommend her for anyone nervous about leaving their pets. She is the best and we will definitely be using her services again and again! ❤️”

“Carissa took great care of my dog while I was away. She sent me plenty of updates and photos of how he was doing as well as flexed her schedule to take care of him as needed! Judging by his happy photos, both he and I would not hesitate to have Carissa watch him again!”

About: Growing up on a farm in Illinois, I’ve been around livestock and pets my whole life. No ask is too big or too small! If your pet needs watched, walked, washed, or anything else, let me know! I am very flexible on weeks to provide any services or level of care that’s needed. I work full time, so during the week I can feed, walk, and let out pets in the mornings and evenings and let out pets at lunch time. Whether you are just requesting a dog walker or in home pet care while you’re away, you can be sure your pet will be well taken care of and safe. I provide regular updates and photos while your away on trips and share walking schedules/routes via Apple Watch data sharing.
