House Sitting in Ridgeway

“Shelby is WONDERFUL with both my high energy beagle/lab mix and with my little old shih tzu. She sends pictures while I’m gone, is very meticulous with notes at a meet up and updates as well. I trust her in my home and with my pups. Highly recommend.”

About: I have been taking care of a variety of animals since I was 5 years old! If you need someone trustworthy, caring, and kind to animals to watch your babies, I am definitely the one to call! I have taken care of many different types of animals including birds, cats, dogs (big and small), bunnies, guinea pigs, lizards, chinchillas, squirrels, fish, and more! I treat all animals as my own, and I believe that each and every creature deserves respect and love, no matter how small (or how crazy) they may be! I recently graduated college with a degree in Elementary Education, and am on the hunt for jobs! For the time being, I have a completely open schedule, and am free to visit your pets anytime you would like me to be there! I can care for any type of animal, small, big, feathered, scaled, furry, etc.! I am extremely careful when working in other peoples' homes, I know how nerve-racking it can be! I will care for each and every animal to the best of my abilities, making sure every animal receives the love and care they deserve. When I am watching your animals, you don't have to worry! I can promise they will be in the best hands possible!

“Jack and Emily took very good care of Riley. They spoiled her and made her comfortable as it took her a day or two to adjust to her new surroundings. Jack was good about sending pictures and updates. He even sent her home with a special treat. Thank you for watching her for us!”

About: From the first moments I could remember, I have always been around and caring for dogs and cats. I'm also a professional equine bodyworker, with medical experience that is easily translated over to our smaller, 4-legged friends. I take a gentle and intuitive approach with animals, focusing on positive reinforcement. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule. If staying at your home, I will never be gone for more than 8 hrs at a time. Weekends are usually no issue to schedule around either While staying at your home, I stick to the routine you have developed with your pets to make it as stress-free as possible. I recognize the importance of structure with dogs and cats, and losing that while their humans are away can be a big stressor. I will do my best to act as an extension of you while you are away to ensure the most personalized care.

About: I've cared for family and friends dogs since I was a teenager, as well as our own dogs. I have experience with diabetic dogs and other medical needs. I work part time and will spend my off time with your pup. I like to meet everyone before sitting so I can get to know their routines and make sure everyone is comfortable! I will care for your pets as you do. I typically visit the home before dogsitting to meet the dog and see what their routine is.

“Kelly is a wonderful and reliable pet sitter She keeps me updated and sends great pictures. I know my pets are being loved and cared for when I’m gone!”

About: I have always been a pet lover, but my soft spot is definitely for dogs! I have experience at dog daycares and boarding facilities and sanctuaries/rescues. I am CPR certified. I have experience and patience with senior dogs, they deserve all the love too! I am currently looking to becoming a full time pet care specialist, I want to build a clientele here and build relationships with new dogs. A few things factor into this. Most importantly for me is knowing and understanding the pets current routine, following all instructions and any precautions-for pets safety and my own, then updating owner about stay/walk/visit.

“Sarah took excellent care of our dog Rusty while we were away for a week! She was very attentive to the details we shared about the nuances of our good lil pup and kept her happy. She kept us updated on how their time was going and assured us that Rusty was being a good girl. Took care of emptying our mailbox and left the place in great condition. Thanks again Sarah! Will definitely book again”

About: I have a natural love of animals. I have acquired many animal care skills over the last ten years of animal ownership and through my employment at a doggy kennel/daycare. Lastly, have a certification in animal science form Niagara BOCES. Pet care fits my schedule whenever needed. My goal for my future is to work with animals. Therefore, I will adjust my schedule to whatever works best for your animals. In other words, at this point in my life I am flexible! If I am providing care in my own home: I have a fenced in yard, 1 dog of my own and 5 cats to keep your baby company. I follow your directions on how to care for your animals whether in my home or in your home. I will always stay outside with my charges to keep them company and actively play with your fur child.

About: Hi there! I'm Becca. I love animals and grew up living and helping on my family’s beef cattle farm. I have cared for a large variety of pets and farm animals since I was young. My clients typically own cats and/or dogs, but I have also cared for clients’ horses, donkeys, alpacas, goats, chickens, aquarium pets, fish (etc.). I currently still live on the family farm, and personally own a horse and four sheep. I also help care for the family dog and cats. I have 10+ years of in-home pet sitting experience. I offer in-home pet care and house sitting with overnight stays and would love to care for your pet(s) while you’re away! I work on the farm and freelancing jobs so I can usually create my own work schedule aside from a few times where it’s dependent on others’ schedules. With that being said, I am accommodating as possible around my own work schedule. I could leave from your home and return after work. Some days I won’t have work at all. If this schedule works for you and your pet(s), I look forward to working with you! I understand that every pet has their own unique care. Each animal’s specific routine is important. I will learn their likes and dislikes and what works best for your pet(s)!

About: I have loved dogs my whole life. Unfortunately (with the exception of when I was very little and one year as a teenager living with my mother) I grew up without dogs living with my father in an apartment. Getting married changed that as my wife at the time of dating had one dog and we now have 3 wonderful dogs, all rescues. We have also fostered in the past. I am passionate about rescuing dogs and dogs (and all animals) rights to a loving home free of abuse. I receive so much joy from being with dogs and have formed a strong bond with all 3 of our kids. My wife and I have no human children so the dogs are pretty much our life. As of now I am in between jobs so I have a lot of availability. I am looking for late mornings through the evening. I unfortunately cannot do overnights or earl mornings. I don't think I could do it at my house as out dogs do not always get along with others especially on their territory. I would be available to work I your home or I can provide dog walking services.

“Jillian was excellent in all aspects - great communication, thoughtful, caring, did everything I asked her to do, left the house neat and clean. I felt very reassured my dogs were being well cared for. Would highly recommend.”
