House Sitting in Scio

“Joey was wonderful. He met with us the day before for a Greet & Meet. He arrived promptly on both days and was very experienced & well-prepared to take care of our Senior. Joey was very detailed about Rufus's care plan and asked lots of good questions. He sent plenty of beautiful photos and updates during the day. Joey was able to use positive reinforcement (treats and positive praise) to wean him off his belly band. This was incredibly helpful as we have been able to continue without it.”

“Ava was wonderful with my dogs! She took the time to meet Goose, my fearful dog, prior to house sitting and was so kind and respectful to Goose’s needs. She had all three dogs sleeping in bed and absolutely loving their time with Ava.”

About: I've worked with all different kinds of animals, from domestic cats an dogs to guinea pigs,rabbits,lizards, etc. Family an friends have relied on me to walk, feed & bathe their pets. Along with grooming, nail trimming, etc. I work at a veterinary clinic with that being said I am available on weekdays anytime after 5:00pm and weekends anytime. Pet care fits my schedule great its what I was born to do working with animals. I have a huge yard to run around in with your critter, along with 1 dachshund to keep you oets company. If your pet needs to be crated or have medication, etc. I have plenty of room an chalk boards to remind of times for feeding an medication if needed. I currently work at a veterinary office. So pet care works into my routine on a daily. I have 1 dog of my own that I care for and make sure he is updated on shots, etc. I am able to pretty much do alot of things for pets, like nail trims, give medications if need be, alone with just walking the dogs etc. I care for animals anyways youd like your pretty to be cared for, if you pet needs medication, or certain play times etc. I'm more then happy to do so, I feel walking or having that one on one time with the pets is very important.

“Was awesome with Blaze‼️ I'd definitely have her back again. Thanks Shawnee‼️”

“My husband and I were very nervous leaving all of our animals (pet pigs, chickens, guinea pig) for the first time without us. We have a busy routine with them and things can get a bit hectic so we needed someone who was not only trustworthy but was dependable and caring also. I'm a worrier when it comes to my animals so I can be a bit neurotic when it comes to their well-being, but Abigail completely exceeded our expectations! Not only did she take great care of the animals but the house looked exactly the way we left it (which is impressive with 3 pigs considering we're always cleaning behind them), she bonded with them all, gave us updates, and was so easy to communicate with. Her personality is very easy to get along with and she truly cares about the well-being of the animals. We couldn't be happier with her and will definitely be using her to take care of our loves ones from now on. We'd give her 6 stars if we could ?”

About: I have been trained in the pet department for country maxx! I work independent contract gigs full time and I have a very flexible schedule! I am a full-time aid to a young woman who loves animals. I work from 9am-4pm on weekdays, and am completely free on weekends!

“Karina did a great job with Bella and was openly kind, courteous, trusting, attentive, responsible, respectful, communicative and just all around the perfect pet sitter! She was so accomodating and helpful from the initial time I reached out to her. I was so relieved and happy when she said she could help! Bella, enjoyed time with Karina too. I could tell bc when I arrived home Bella was well adjusted and it looked like I had never left. Definitely will book Karina again and recommend her to all. You won't be disappointed!”

About: My family owned an animal kennel rescue for a few years. It has given me very useful knowledge of what to do in emergency situations. It gives me a respect for the animal(s). I have had to act quickly before when an animal was hit by a car or bitten by another animal. So as drastic as those two things are I just want you to know I have been in those types of situations so if anything would happen to your fur baby I am ready to respond. I will go above and beyond to make sure your little baby comes home just as happy if not happier. I know how being away from mom/dad can make them sad. I want the owners to enjoy their trip or their day at work to the best of their abilities and not have to worry if their pet is being taken care of correctly. No more wondering, book me!! I look forward in meeting your pet. I am currently a full stay at home pet mom so I am here to watch your pet any time of day any day of week. We have a fair size yard for the dogs to play in. Some is fenced in and we are working on getting the rest of it enclosed. I do allow pets on the furniture. I will respect your rules though. I don’t want the animals to get confused. As long as they didn’t just play in a mud puddle, We will continue to follow your rules. I do not want them to get confused when it times to go back home or for you to come home. I will respect anything you would want me to follow. I am a very easy going person. And we look forward in meeting your pet.

About: I attended Animal Science BOCES program for 2 years, graduating with my diploma. I am experienced with critters of all kinds from snakes to rabbits! I am comfortable with all sizes, shapes. I have a wide range of time where I am available for morning, afternoon and night walks/meetings. I only work part time so I generally have more time compared to full time workers. I am always very gentle, inviting with all animals. I typically let the pet come to me first, getting my scent and then proceed to give them lots of love.

About: Growing up I’ve always had a pet, whether it was a dog, cat, reptile, hamster, bunny, etc. The past experience I have is from ages 10 weeks-12 years old. I’m up for any task and have no trouble walking dogs who pull. I use a harness for one of my pups and he is always comfortable walking with me. I currently work M-F but have a flexible schedule. I have two dogs of my own but have help with them. Can always adjust as needed. I treat every pet the way I would want someone to treat my pet. I don’t neglect and I listen to rules very carefully. I’m a very trustworthy person and can even send hourly updates on your furry friend!

“So happy with Elizabeth. My dogs were very well taken care of and we’ll definitely set up another appointment. She sent pictures and we felt very comfortable leaving for an overnight. Definitely recommend.”

“Kolby is an awesome sitter and he takes care of more than dogs! I have a farmstead that includes a horse, a goat, an emu and over 60 chickens and other foul that include babies right now. Kobe did overnights and everybody was well taken care of and happy. One of my dogs is very standoffish with strangers and a little bit intimidating and Kobe handled that like a champ. I'm super pleased with Colby and I will definitely be looking to book with him in the future. His rates are very reasonable. If you have animals besides just the normal cats and dogs, Kobe will be able to help you with that. Farmsteaders and homesteaders, this guy is great!”

“Can’t thank Sari enough. She came in on short notice, was so genuine and friendly, quick to respond and helped my dog go through her first ever heat cycle. My dog having her dog period was very unexpected and I could not be more grateful for having someone like Sari. She sent pictures and was very caring for my animals. Would highly recommend to anyone in need of pup sitting services. She should be on the front cover of Rover magazine if there was one. THANK YOU!!”

About: I quickly became a dog mom when my partner moved into my house with his 5 year old dog Sampson. I fell in love with our daily walks in the field behind our house, as well as having something to take care of in the house. Sampson listens, he is a dog I can walk off leash and the best cuddle buddy. Because of his good nature I soon found myself growing our family by the addition of two puppies. Hank was our first pup - he is a Great pyreenes mixed with a Bernese Mountain Dog. Think fluffy, slobbery, and 140 pounds. I wasn't sure how a big dog and myself would get along but I found his size comforting. Stella was a dog we failed at fostering. She is a smaller terrier mix and is teaching me the true purpose of crates and leashes. I learn every day how to be better for my dogs. It is chaotic, messy and unpredictable living with three dogs but I wouldn't change it for anything. I am by no means a perfect dog owner but I understand the complexities and uniqueness of each dog and their personalities. I rely on being consistent and predictable for my dogs so they continue to trust me to take care of them. Their health and happiness is my priority. I am a school teacher. When school is in session I am free after 5pm. When we are on break for holidays or summer, I am free anytime. At my house, I don't have a fenced in yard but we have over 20 acres to walk. I am comfortable walking dogs on a leash. I have a crate for a medium to small sized dog and an outdoor "doggio" for warmer days or if a furry friend wants some time outdoors relaxing. I have three dogs, one of which is a very large and enjoys rough housing with other dogs. We have lots of toys and a house that that continues to become dog proof. We let our dogs on the couches and they have a large living room to play in.
