House Sitting Pittsville

About: I’ve had various pets my entire life (mainly cats) and have always loved caring for all animals. I grew up around families with dogs, so I’m extremely comfortable caring for dogs as well and have pet-sat many dogs over the years. At one point, I had 12 cats, so I’m able to care for multiple pets and keep up with their individual needs. I’ve also cared for two senior cats and understand the extra patience and attention older pets may need. I’ve rescued and cared for kittens, including helping them feel safe and comfortable in a new environment. I also have experience caring for a cat who needed medication and experienced seizures, which taught me the importance of following care instructions carefully, paying close attention to changes in behavior, and staying calm when a pet needs extra care. I truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I currently work from home, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for and keep an eye on your pet. I’m usually available throughout the day for walks and other services. If my availability ever changes, I’ll make sure to communicate that ahead of time. I currently offer dog walking and house sitting services. When house sitting, I’ll make sure your pet stays comfortable, safe, and cared for in their own home. I’ll follow your instructions closely and keep you updated while you’re away. I will also treat your property as if it were my own!

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and my family currently has four, so I’ve had lots of hands-on experience caring for them over the years. I’m a huge animal lover and I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, potty breaks, and giving dogs plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I’ll always follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet with the same care I give my family’s dogs. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, and I’m happy to make time for pet care around my classes and other commitments. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pet gets the care and time they need. I will always treat your pet and home with care and respect. I’m comfortable following specific feeding, walking, crate, and daily routine instructions, and I’ll make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times. I’ll give your pet plenty of attention and can also send updates and photos so you know they’re safe and happy while you’re away.

I currently own 3 ducks, 3 quail, and 6 cats. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, bearded dragons, hamsters, guinea pigs, rats, and small snakes. I absolutely love animals and caring for them.

About: I have had several animals in my lifetime, some of my families growing up, and several of my own. I have owned a total of 5 dogs. All of my dogs have been/are rescues. I currently have 3 "puppies" that range in ages between 1-2 years old. I got two of them when they were only 6 months old and I have done all of their training on my own. Animals of all kinds have a very special place in my hear and I work hard so my fur animals can have a better life. Remember, your animals only experience what you allow them to. Let them experience life the way we do, they are only here for so long. I work from home therefore, I am available at all times. I can bring my work to your home if I need to be there for an extended time or I can leave my work at home and come take care of your animals if it will be for a shorter period of time. My dogs experience everything that I experience in my home. Such as roaming freely, having access to food and water at all times, being able to roam in the yard independently, and most importantly, they sleep on a tempur-pedic mattress at night with their humans.

“I couldn’t have asked for more. Hanna stayed with our two girls - Darla and Hazel - one senior dog and one space cadet young English Setter. We got photos everyday that showed us in an instant that our girls were well taken care of. We like them to be more comfortable at home and having Hanna here with them was wonderful - she brought in the mail and took great care of our home. What a blessing and a treasure. In a heartbeat I’d ask Hanna again. Too bad she’s not available for our cruise this spring! I tried!”

About: I have had many dogs and cared for many others. It is a true labor of love for me and something I really love doing. I’m retired so my schedule is super flexible. Whatever your schedule I can probably accommodate it. Give me a try and let’s see if we can work it out. I love them but I don’t board dogs (sorry). Couldn’t negotiate that successfully with my wife. I do love spending time with them on walks or in your home.

“Blair was awesome! Took excellent care of our boys, followed our crazy instructions and even sent pics and videos the entire time. I would highly recommend her, but we don't want her stolen from us! :)”

About: I've been watching animals in the neighborhood since I was a child, and have continued to pet sit in my adult life. I love caring for animals and look forward to taking care of yours! I'm a substitute teacher so my schedule is always flexible, especially during holidays and summer break. I can schedule around your pet's needs, so don't hesitate to ask. Please let me know if your animal has any specific needs. I am happy to accommodate for any treatment they would typically receive at home.

“Alyssa was great with our fur babies, and sent pictures often while we were away. You could tell the pups were happy by the big smiles on their faces in every picture! We will definitely be asking Alyssa to watch them the next time we go away.”

About: I’ve been taking care of all types of animals from Horses to goats, to dogs and cats, to chickens and fish. I have experience with all ages of dogs and cats from newborn to seniors. I am currently the DayPlay Lead at K9 Heeling, rates the “#1 Dog Training Company” on the Eastern Shore, based on The Metropolitan Magazine! I love all animals and would willing to watch any type!! I am currently working full time! I’ve plenty of free time to take care of your pets and make sure they have the best quality care! After all it is what I do for a living! I would prefer to pet sit in your home so that the dog can stay in the comfort of its own home, if at all possible!

About: Ive had dogs in my family ever since I was a kid. I have a 10 year old pit mix, a 13 year old husky, and a 1 year old husky, so I know how to care for multiple dogs at once and dogs of all ages, including puppies. I will care for your dog the way you would. I will take them on as many walks as youd like, and treat them as if they were my own. I get along very well with all dogs and I have plenty of experience. I dont trust my dog with just anybody, so I know how important it is to build that trust with your dog and to not change their comfortability and routine. I work part time at nights, so I am free for as many walks or as much play time as needed! When Im with your dog, it will always be my first priority! I can go on as many walks as needed, depending on the age and activity level of your dog. I have experience crate training my own dog if you need me to do that. I will care for your dog the same way as if youve never left.

“Busara was a delight! She gave a lot of feedback on her time with Jasper. Jasper seemed to enjoy having her here. I’d definitely ask her to come another time!”

Hello! I'm Victoria and I often travel with the best travel partner I've found yet, Rae. I travel frequently and am available for extended sits as needed. We often miss the love of animals while on the road. So, house and pet sitting is perfect for us! I take work with me and also additionally do gig work (i.e. grocery deliveries) if time permits while traveling. In time off from work, if not spending time with family or animals, we love to cook, find hidden gem restaurants/food trucks, explore in nature, long camping trips (we just took a 9000 mile, 2 month camping trip this year in April), projects on various older vehicles, attend concerts/festivals, or many other different events that a town/city may have to offer! We love to meet new people and pets and explore new areas... or frequent favorited locations! We often miss the love of animals while on the road. So, house and pet sitting is perfect! We still get to give our love to your animals while on the road! We come to you and follow your instructions and routines as to not disrupt your pets natural environment and daily schedule! Simply put, your preferences will be our preferences depending on your pets needs whatever it is that will make your pet most comfortable!
