Pet Sitting in Scottsville

“Amanda's terrific! I'm a repeat booker, and try to book Amanda each time I go out of town. I have an elderly dog with digestive issues who needs meds and lots of love, and Amanda's great with her. Highly recommend!”

“Candice cares for our aging husky and makes his older years comfortable while we are working. She's attentive and we so appreciate the photos she sends!”

“Hannah took amazing care of our two kitties when we were away for a week. She was so communicative and friendly about everything. We are so grateful we could count on her, and we would definitely recommend her to anyone!”

“We are so pleased with Daniel. He is reliable, and Minerva likes him. He is also sharp on time and has impeccable manners. In a moment of need, he responded promptly to our inquiry.”

“Briana has been helping take care of other people's pets for many years. She started off by helping her Mom, in her pet sitting business, when she was little. As she got older, she worked in a pet boarding facility and then as a veterinarian assistant. Her love and knowledge of pet health, pet behavior, and animal breeds makes her a great person to take care of your beloved pet!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs for over 15 years for family members, neighbors, and friends. I moved from Alaska and have a very active lifestyle. I love to take animals on adventures, but also love cuddling on the couch at the end of the day. I work full time as a teacher but I am comfortable fitting pet care into my daily schedule. I can come home at lunch if needed to care for pets or accommodate to fit your needs. I have a huge fenced yard and tons of land to run around and enjoy. I have two friendly dogs and a cat who love other animals. When caring for pets in your home, I will follow your directions and make sure your animals are cared for as if they were my own.

“Brielle watched my 2 cats. She followed all my instructions and even sent me picture updates. I will be using her again in the future. Definitely recommend!”

“Rebecca took such great care of our two dogs over the Holidays. It is so nice to receive the check ins and see pictures while we were away. The dogs were relaxed and well cared for when we arrived home. Thank you Rebecca!!”

“Katie has now taken care of our two cats three times, and she will definitely the first person we contact the next time we travel - both our girls Claudia (9yrs) and Turtle (5yrs) love her! Katie is an excellent communicator, writer extraordinaire, thoughtful super reliable and professional.”

“Estefani would be an excellent person to care for your pet! She has a calm, loving energy towards animals - she is great with my two large dogs, showing confidence in handling that much canine while also having great patience. I trust her completely to care for my beloved pups.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats for over 20 years, pets are my passion! I am also a former Petshotel and Doggie Day Camp Manager for a national chain and have extensive experience handling dogs, cats, and small pets of all sizes and breeds. I am currently accepting small and medium sized dogs for in house day care and overnight stays. I specialize in small and delicate breed types, not usually suited for kenneling or vet boarding. All fur babies will be treated as family members while here! They can sit on the couch, sleep on the bed, and watch TV with us just like at home. Some larger "gentle giants" can be considered on a case by case basis, just reach out. I believe pets are family! All pets in my care are treated with loving and gentle guidance using only positive reinforcement. All dogs will remain on leash the entirety of their walk. We have a fenced in area off the back patio for bathroom breaks with wood chips as ground coverage. No grass of any kind for the safety of those pets with grass and skin allergies.

About: I’ve had dogs for almost my entire life and have taken care of different types of dogs ranging in breed and age. I’m looking forward to taking care of your pooch and giving mine an opportunity to make a friend! I work from home full-time and have a pretty flexible schedule. Your dog will always be supervised since I’m always home! Your dog will get lots of attention and play with a stay with me! I have a large fenced-in yard with a doggy-door into the back yard, so your pooch will not have to wait for bathroom breaks. My dog, Primrose, loves to play and make new friends, so she will make great company for anyone who stays here!

“Lisa is a dog lover and super respectful and responsible. She’s had her Bernese Mountain dogs since I’ve known her, which is around 9 years, so she can definitely handle large dogs and is a fantastic “fur mom” (not to mention, human mom as well!)”

“Veronica did a great job of taking care of 3 cats and a dog for me and my daughters, on relatively short notice.”

“Amanda was great! She took great care of my little Guy by taking him to the dog park and giving him his afternoon snack. She is very responsible and reliable and will definitely reach out to her again in the future.”

About: I grew up surrounded by all sizes of dogs since I was 2. I have had 2 dogs of my own, a border collie and collie/poodle mix, as well as 1 cat! I love all animals and would love nothing more than to spend all my free time with them! I have a very flexible work schedule and am able to work from home a couple of days a week! I will have a lot of time to fit your needs into my schedule! I understand what it is like to let strangers into your home to take care of your pets and will do everything I can to make your and your friend feel comfortable. I love to take long walks, throw balls for hours, go for runs and spend time cuddling with tour furry friends. I would be happy to take care of your pet along or if you would like a friend to bring my dog along as well!

“I LOVE using Gretchen to care for my animals when we're out of town. She has a gentle and nurturing manner that my pets really respond to . She has lived around and cared for all varieties of animals since childhood and has been educated in Veternary Sciences, working in an animal hospital for much of her adult life. She's not only extremely capable and responsible, but Gretchen has a passion for furry friends!”

“I have a very skittish cat that I adopted at a few months old, but she was very quick to warm up to Mariah. It really does seem like she has a natural way with animals. Also, I really appreciate the thoughtfulness she shows when she is caring for my Rosie, such as sending pictures of her playing with her so I know she is getting attention/activity, sending pictures or informing me that she took care of the litter box/food bowls, and overall just showing respect for my home. 5*”
