House Sitting in Salix

“Amber was absolutely amazing with our 11 month old puppy and kitten and our older cat while we were away for a week! She sent daily updates and pictures on everyone and house-sat as well, we came home to a tidy home and happy pets! Her boys came along some days and managed to wear down the Labrador energy! She followed all of our instructions to a tee and we are so very pleased at the professionalism she showed until the very end of our trip. We will definitely be using her services again! Many thanks for aiding in the discovery of our pets' new best friend!!”

About: My momma hated animals while growing up, and you know why? Shedding, mortal enemy of every pet owner. We changed her mind and finally convinced her to adopt a dog when I turned 19, and wouldn’t you know it, she also fell in love. Now, we’ve got 4 dogs in the family. Life happened and I had to move from AL to PA. It definitely broke my heart that I’d also part ways with the family doggos. But dont worry, folks, I found a way to bring some animals back into my life. My partner and I got a playful kitty and fluffy corgi! If you dont know how it feels to have a cat purring on your lap while your doggo is snoring by your feet, you haven’t lived. 🥲😂 Life’s just way better with animals! On the weekdays, I work remotely, and I’m available for boarding check in after 1 pm and after noon during weekends. Please let me know if there are medications or other special care for your babies. Our house is fenced and has a mini fence wherein your doggo and mine could play together or do their business. A crate is also available if necessary.

“Carolyn S was very sweet! Sami loved her! It was nice to be able to get out for a night of fun! Thank you! Definitely will use Carolyn S again!”

About: Hi! I’ve worked as a kennel technician for about a year and a half and have experience caring for dogs in a boarding/daycare environment. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, cleaning, handling high-energy dogs, recognizing signs of stress or discomfort, and providing a calm and safe environment for pets. I also have experience administering medications and following specific care instructions to help keep pets comfortable and on schedule while their owners are away. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and understand the importance of patience, consistency, cleanliness, and paying attention to behavior changes. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and happy to provide updates/photos during visits so owners can feel reassured while away from home. I currently work part-time, so my availability may vary week to week. However, I keep my schedule updated and am happy to accept bookings that fit around my work schedule. I’m especially interested in flexible drop-ins and short-term care. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I always try to follow routines closely, pay attention to behavior changes, and provide a calm and patient environment. With my kennel/daycare experience, I’m comfortable handling different personalities and energy levels while making sure pets are cared for safely and responsibly.

“Wade was absolutely amazing with Rex! I had never left him with a sitter before and was extremely nervous, but Wade made the entire experience stress-free. He sent multiple updates and pictures, took Rex on long walks every day, and treated him like his own. I know Rex is going to miss him! He did incredible with him, and I could not be more grateful. I would give a million stars if I could!”

About: I have taken care of my own dog for 10 years, giving me hands on experience with daily routines, behavior, and long term care. My friends, family, and neighbors all trust me with caring for their pets whether that be through walking, feeding, and overall care. I am reliable and attentive, making sure everyone feels safe. I am currently working a part time flexible job so it will be very easy for me to have an open schedule to care for peoples pets. I always make sure whatever pet I am around that they feel comfortable with me. I will carefully listen and understand a pets routine making sure their routine doesn’t get off track. Safety of the animal always comes first to me and making sure they feel comfortable in the situation they are in.

About: I’ve watched multiple of my family members dogs, ranging from big to little dogs. I enjoy spending time with animals and learning more about them. I also enjoy walking dogs around the neighborhood or to the park. I’m currently taking care of my grandma so I don’t really have a set schedule. So I’m always willing to help out. I have a dachshund and she is very nice towards animals and people so if I were to house sit she would also be very welcoming.

“Stayed at my house with my two pups and did amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure they were taken care of and I couldn’t have been happier. She sent updates and pictures throughout the days as well :). Great sitter!”

“Chelsea was wonderful house-sitting and taking care of our Winston. She was punctual and attentive and was a pleasure to work with. I'd definitely reach out to her in the future and would highly recommend!”

About: I've watched neighbors animals before, feeding and walking dogs, have my own dogs and worked at the local humane society doing kennel care work. Cleaning, feeding and taking care of all the animals there. I work at giant eagle but can come before and after work if you're on a trip and do dog walking on my days off/evenings after work I have A fence for my dogs. Use a tie out for the one since she likes to try and escape. Always watch them in the yard and play with them so they aren't alone outside

“Lexi REALLY took amazing care of my pup!! Hikes and cuddles and pics galore. So so impressed and i can’t wait for her to take care of my dog again :)”

About: I love animals I love working with them and get to see there personalities. I love training them and teaching them new tricks. All kinds of pets are welcome. I have a cat and he’s my absolute favorite. I also just recently got a golden retriever and she is my whole world. I am currently working part time as a home health aid. I usually stay there over night Sundays Thursday's and every other Friday and Saturday. I make sure all my pets are feed and have water. I make sure all the pets are loved and have attention and make sure there happy. I will make sure they get everything they need. And lots of exercise

About: I grew up in East Texas with 3 Bengal tigers in my front yard and a minuture potbelly pig named Bubba in our home. I currently have a Exotic Micro Bully named Gucci who loves all other animals. Your pet will be loved and safe with us. My life is Gucci and we would love to have your animal and promise to keep them safe. They will be walked and entertained. If your pet doesn't like other pets then we might not be the best fit. Gucci can handle just about anything but he is so socialized that I don't think he would defend himself even if he needed too. Please only other animals that are completely okay with other pets. We go to the Westmoreland County Dog Obodeience School once a week and will pass on all knowledge we learn to those that will let us teach them. Your pet will be loved and safe with us. My life is non stop pet care. You will have no worries of your pet being left unattended. Gucci is never left alone and neither will your pet. Lots of walks and love! If you would like your pet crated for whatever reason please provide it. We are a crate free home. I live in an apartment but it's a big one and we take lots of walks.

About: My motto is that it's my responsibility to make sure that each dog under my care is HAPPY and SAFE. Every day that I'm with your pup, I keep that motto at the forefront of my mind. I know how important dogs are to our lives, so it's my duty to make sure that your pup gets to experience the same kind of love and care that they're used to at home. I'm a huge dog lover, so making pups as happy as I can, just comes second nature for me! When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It's a great way to make sure that we're all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pup and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it's always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Finally, I just love meeting new dogs! I like to get down on their level to show them that I'm a welcome presence here to make friends, and I'm sure we'll be best buddies in no time at all. I know how difficult it is to be away from your best friend, so communication is the name of my game. I'll make sure to send plenty of regular updates with accompanying pictures so you can see just how much fun your pup and I are having! I’m hoping to make Rover a full-time career! That’s how much I love animals! I’m very flexible with all your pet caring needs so if there’s anything I can help with, please let me know! Although I'm unable to watch your pups at my home, I'll make sure they're safe at yours! I make sure I understand the pups needs, routine, and any specific care instructions provided by you, the owner. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, ensuring their environment is safe and clean, exercising them, and administering medications or treatments if required.
