House Sitting in Red Cross

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals all my life from my own pets to pets of friends and family, which includes being responsible for them from time to time. I’ve even had prior experience staying overnight and caring for animals that include dogs, cats, and chickens. I am a full time student in law school so my schedule depends on my classes and my school obligations for the week. However, I try hard to manage all bookings I get if the owners are willing to be flexible with times! I can care for your pet by walking them, playing with them, feeding them, hugging them, grooming them, and even staying with them overnight if that makes them more comfortable while you are away.

“Cameron did a fantastic job taking care of both my home and my tiny fury overlords! He took the time to get to know them, and I swear I think they were disappointed when I came back and Cameron left. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Will 100% be hiring him again for my upcoming trips.”

“Jeffery is absolutely terrific!! We have utilized his services for 2 years now. He has not only cared for our pet, but has also been our house sitter during our trips. We have found him to be a trustworthy and honest person who provides much love and attention to our fur baby. Our pet is a family member whom we love dearly and had a tough life prior to adopting us as his new family. Due to that, we were very concerned with finding someone who would provide the same type of love and attention as he receives from us. I am very happy to say that Jeffery has provided all of that to our pet and can ensure that he will do the same for your pet. I can't thank him enough for helping us to enjoy our time away, by caring for our pet in a way that allows to relax, knowing that he is in good hands.”

About: I’ve pet sit for family, friends, and neighbors for years (Up to 5-6 dogs at a time), I also have 3 dogs and a cat with my family, one of which is elderly. I’ve had experience caring for elderly dogs/cats on medication and puppies. I value high-quality service and transparency especially with our pets! I am a college student with a part time job, but with classes I’m very open in the mornings & available midday. Week day nights might vary but more details can/will be provided. Available at any time on weekends. I always try to build a relationship with the pets I am caring for, I also try to provide as many updates and send pictures possible for clients so they know their pet is being loved and spoiled. If there were ever a concern in terms of behavior or medical emergency, client can expect the most immediate communication.

About: I started pet and house sitting in 2015 and have loved caring for furry, feathered, and even scale-y friends ever since. As a farm kid through and through, I'm comfortable with animals of all shapes and sizes and have experience caring for nearly every type of pet you can imagine. I don't shy away from big animals (or big messes!) I recently completed my graduate degree and became a nationally certified Physician Assistant. While my training is in human medicine, I have experience caring for pets with complex medical needs, including administering injections, medications, and subcutaneous fluids. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and attentive caring for your pets, especially when they require extra support. At home, I share my life with two cats, Winston and Franklin, one of whom is an FIP survivor. That experience has given me a firsthand appreciation for the trust pet owners place in their caregivers and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your pets are in capable hands. If you're looking for a responsible, dependable professional to keep your pets happy, healthy, and loved while you're away, I'd be honored to help. Having recently completed graduate school, I currently have a very flexible schedule and can devote substantial time to caring for your pets. This allows me to provide attentive, personalized care and maintain your pet's normal routine as closely as possible. While I am currently unable to board pets, I am happy to provide care in the environment where your pet is most comfortable- their own home! I strive to maintain your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and plenty of companionship. I treat every home with the same respect and care that I would my own, and I understand the trust involved in leaving both your pets and your home in someone else's hands. My goal is to ensure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away, so you can travel with peace of mind.

“Drew did a great job sitting my 2 dogs for a week. My senior dog needed meds and there were no messes in the house. He also walked them and sent daily pics of each dog. Thx so much and I will use him again when I go back to Ohio!”

“We were visiting Damascus VA to bike the VA Creeper Trail and needed someone to stay in our camper with our dog because he has some separation issues. She was there on time, he immediately went to her. She was friendly and caring. When we returned three hours later, he was happy, wagging and tired. She relieved our minds so we could do what we planned and know our pup was in good hands. Highly recommend.”

“Drew was great. Very friendly and great with my animals. He came and visited them multiple times a day, gave them cuddles and scratches and they loved him. He was great with my senior dog and comfortable administering oral meds to him. Very communicative, texted throughout the day and sent pics and videos. 5/5 would have him watch my animals again.”

About: I’ve had cats and dogs all my life and have consistently been a primary caregiver. This ranges for when they were puppies/kittens all the way to senior age. I’ve also spent decent amounts of time the past two years pet sitting dogs and cats of various ages for friends and family! I’m currently in between undergraduate and graduate school so I currently just do online gig work. I make my own schedule so my availability is essentially wide open. In your home I’m always going to be very cognizant of the animals needs and their comfortability. If your pet needs exercise I am in great cardio shape and frequently run so I am always open to going on runs with your dog if they are high energy! I’m also very familiar with leashes and harnesses so if you don’t have fencing or if your pet is used to only going potty with a leash I am ready for that. I also love cats and will always make sure they get lots of love and attention!

“Louise was great! I came home and my babes and house were as I left it, which is all I could ever want. I will DEFINITELY be using her again.”

“I was dreading leaving Sophie for 7 whole days, but she did great with Caitlin! Sophie is an older kitty with IBD and has a particular schedule to follow to keep her stable, which makes me nervous to leave her. I’m so thankful Caitlin was willing to care for her, and also able to stay with her at night, as Sophie hates being alone. It really put my mind at ease knowing someone was there! Thanks again :)”
