Pet Sitting Seneca

About: I've had cats and dogs my entire life and, for the first time, find myself without any pets. I have an abundance of ear scratches, belly rubs, and snuggles just waiting for pets who are missing their people. My husband and I both work from home with flexible schedules so are available for frequent potty breaks, walks, and playtime. We also have two children, 8 and 11, who both grew up with dogs and cats and are experienced and comfortable with both. Your pet will be the only one in our home, so they will get lots of attention, playtime, and snuggles! We have a big house that pets are free to explore and where they can make themselves at home. We also have an unfenced 3-acre backyard that connects to a path through the woods - your dog can enjoy a daily hike through the forest, smelling the many interesting smells and splashing in the creek if so desired. And we live on a cul-de-sac in a residential area perfect for safe neighborhood walks. If you are looking for someone who loves dogs and is responsible and loving to take care of your pups when you're not around, please reach out! Please note: 1. All dogs must be fully potty trained, neutered or spayed, vaccinated, and on flea and tick preventative. All pets must be comfortable with children. 2. Drop off time: 7:30 am to 6:00 pm Pick up time: 7:30 am to 9:00 pm 3. Things to bring: a. Bed or blanket or crate, whichever your pet prefers. b. Food and treats, along with feeding instructions. Please bring 2-3 extra days' worth of food in case of delays. Any unused food and treats will be returned. c. Any medications or supplements for your pet. Please bring prescription medications in their original containers along with clear written instructions. d. For a dog, a collar with name tag and phone number and a harness if used for walks. e. Any special toys.

“Gloria was WONDERFUL. It was the first time we went with the sitter for our cat, and she eased all our anxiety. She was very communicative, kind, and thorough. We cannot recommend her enough.”

“Rene did an outstanding job taking care of my cat Max! She was always on time, fed him and gave him his medication, and lots of attention. Everything was neat and tidy when we returned as well. We will definitely be booking with Rene again in the future!”

About: I have taken care of my own dog since I was young, and since her passing I have routinely dogsit for friends and family. My childhood right-paw-man was a Beagle mix, and so I love to handle hounds who sniff first & think later (as well as distract them with Pupperoni…). I took care of her in her old age, so I have some experience in dropping medicine on the floor and pretending it’s a delectable morsel so dogs devour it! I also have handled plenty of bark-happy dogs, and like to bring treats on all my walks to incentivize more calmer adventures. I am currently in a partly asynchronous grad school program, and I’d love to spend my very flexible time taking healthy (and frequent) breaks from studying to care for your pet! I’m excited to adapt to fur-parents’ homes and needs! I’m comfortable crating pets, supervising outdoor time in fenced yards, and being attentive to your pets’ body language while inside their home.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since 2000 and cats since I was 8. From kitten, puppies to senior dogs and cats, I love them all. I will care for your pet like they were my own. I currently work from home everyday. I can walk dogs before work, pet sit all day, or watch them in the evening or overnight. I am available for long stays as well. I have no pets at this time so your pet can be comfortable and roam around freely. I can feed, play with and give lots of attention.

About: I’ve had dogs as pets my whole life! I grew up volunteering at animal shelters so I have plenty of hands on experience. I’ve been freelance pet sitting for about 5 years now. I have cat sit for 5 different families in the past. I never had a cat so I feel this helped me gain some cat experience. I’ve dog sat for senior dogs requiring special medication and have had senior dogs myself. I’m a huge animal lover and am so excited to meet your pups/ kitties! I’m perfect to call for mid day dog walking or a drop in visit when you’re at work! I’m currently unemployed and am looking forward to pet sitting/ dog walking full time! I am a very structured person so I will follow any and all directions that you leave for me. I will do as much as I can to make your pet feel at ease while you are on your family vacation, work trip, etc. I’ve been an animal lover all my life so I promise to give your pets the same love & affection that I do give to my own fur babies! I know everyone says that, but I truly enjoy being around animals!

“Riley did a wonderful job taking care of my two dogs and two cats. The pets were well fed and taken care very well. I had zero issues. Would recommend in the future if ever needed.”

Alejandro M.

“Xiaoyi was absolutely amazing with my dog Bella. At first, I was skeptical about this service as I am very picky about who I like to work with Bella. That being said I would absolutely book Xiaoyi without any hesitation or reservation. If you like someone who is very attentive communicative and very caring, please look no further. While I was away on my trip, she kept me informed with pictures and text messages on my dogs experience. I look forward to working with her in the future! 10 out of 10 experience!!!”

“Theresa was wonderful! She took great care of our kitties when we were away. Kept us updated with photos and descriptions of her visits. Very responsive via text/email. Will happily book again!”

Bridget C.

“Rachel did a wonderful job taking care of our fur babies. We have a senior dog who requires a lot of care and we had no worries what so ever while we were away with all the updates and pictures of her visits. I would highly recommend Rachel for all your pet care needs!”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! Growing up with dogs has given me a lifelong love for animals and an understanding of how important it is to provide them with love, patience, and proper care. I’m currently the proud owner of a 1-year-old French Bulldog, so I have hands-on experience with the daily responsibilities of being a dog owner, including feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and making sure my pup feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every dog has their own unique personality, needs, and routine. Whether your pup is playful and energetic or prefers cuddles and relaxing, I’ll do my best to make them feel right at home. I’ll treat your furry family member with the same love and attention I give my own dog! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I want every owner to feel confident that their dog is in caring, responsible hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your four-legged best friend! 🐾 I work only 3 days a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility to dedicate time to pet care throughout the week. On my days off, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship. As a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of keeping a consistent routine and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual needs and schedule to make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve! 🐾 I care for every pet as if they were my own! As someone who has grown up with dogs and currently has a 1-year-old French Bulldog, I understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment. I make sure pets have fresh water, meals on their regular schedule, plenty of playtime, exercise, attention, and lots of affection. In a client's home, I would follow their pet's normal routine and any specific instructions to help them feel comfortable while their owner is away. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I always aim to be patient, attentive, and gentle. I also believe communication is important, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos to give owners peace of mind while their furry family members are in my care. 🐾❤️

About: When dogs come to stay with me they never want to go home. I love caring for dogs. When they stay with me they get so much attention and walks and playtime with other dogs. Your dog will have a blast. They will sleep with me in my room. They will go on adventures with me like going for a walk in the woods or just a nice stroll in the neighborhood. I am the best dog sitter there is. I am mostly home with my 1 year old. I step out when i have other dog jobs but when i am out my mom is here with my 1 year old. So there is mostly someone here all the time unless i am out with him. I do live in a apartment on the 3rd floor but that doesnt keep me from taking my dog clients out if they need to go out alot. I do have a balcony too.

About: I was raised with dogs of all sizes (from pomeranian to Keeshond) and have crate-trained all of them. Because I work from home, the size of my yard and the privacy fence, I am the "go to" person to watch / board dogs for all of my friends. I have house-sat my friend's blind Rottweiler and energetic Pomsky at their home. I have cared for two Vizsla dogs (at the same time) in my home. I have also house-sat my friend's 3 pugs (in her home), two of which were seniors and needed medication and drops, while the third needed a wheelchair (rear 2 leg muscles had atrophied). Recently, I fostered a Vizsla-mix (about 60 lbs) "Bronson" who had been abused and lived in the kennel his whole life, I fell in love with him (foster fail) after only 7 days, during which I was able to teach him to walk in the house, jump in the car, wear a collar, walk on a leash, and basic commands. I have a 7-year-old Yorkie, Rascal, whom I trained to use the doggie door, respond to basic commands, and "ring the bell" to go outside (which he now uses when he is hungry!). Rascal has been socialized since he was a puppy so he is happy to share his single-family home and his 1 acre yard. So far, Rascal has gotten along with every dog (large or small, young or old) he has ever met, including at the dog park, during walks, etc. For when it is too hot or too cold outside, I made a small indoor space with astroturf (see photos) so our fur friends can feel like they are outside. I keep various toys for the pup's entertainment (and either wash or replace when needed). Outside, his friends enjoy dipping their toe beans (or standing in) the koi pond. For the super energetic larger breeds, I exercise them by playing fetch or frisbee in the yard and encourage them to run if possible, or whatever the owner allows me to use to make sure they get their daily exercise. The property has many trees allowing for many shady spots to roll around in the grass or chew their favorite toy. I treat your loved one like my own so they are always 100% supervised when playing, eating or even when lounging. I change their water several times a day and they always get filtered water. I work where they are and they are where I work. Overnight, I prefer that they sleep in my room so I can hear (I am a light sleeper) if they need something. If the owner prefers, I have a small crate (with custom pillow) and a medium crate available, if the pawrent prefers. I aim to maintain your little one's normal routine- morning bathroom relief, breakfast, afternoon potty break(s), physical exercise, and mental stimulation throughout the day, dinner, and late night potty before going to bed. My number one priority is following your instructions "to the tee" because no one knows your pet better than you! Each dog has his or her own personality, likes and sidelines, fears, etc. For those doggies that do not like or get along with men or children, my mother and I are the only humans living in the home. When you drop off your pet, with your permission, I will give your little one, him/her various NEW toys for exercise and/or mental stimulation. For first-time clients, if s/he loves the toy(s), s/he can keep it/them as my gift to your baby to remember me by. On stays of 3 days or longer, with your permission, I will brush the coat (to remove dead skin cells and promote circulation) and follow it with a waterless shampoo rub down to keep your little one clean and fresh, followed by a second brushing. NEWEST ADDITION - Complimentary dog treat bag (1 per small dog or two per large dog). Clean, Whole Food Ingredients: Every recipe is formulated with all-natural, USA-sourced ingredients you can actually pronounce. Small-Batch Baked: Fresh baked in an SQF and gluten-free certified bakery in Austin, TX. Allergy-Friendly: Carefully crafted without major dog allergens like chicken and beef to keep every pup happy and healthy. Zero Junk or Fillers: Absolutely no corn, wheat, soy, artificial preservatives, highly processed oils, or unnecessary additives. Rascal and I look forward to meeting you and your loved ones. I have my own business so I set my own hours; when I do work, it is 100% remotely. Since I have a huge fenced in yard, I can let the dogs out as often as needed. On cooler days, I bring my laptop outside so that they can run around, take naps under the trees, chase the squirrels running along the top of the fence. Since I do not have children and am a home-body, I am available for boarding on weekends, weekdays and most holidays. In my home, I have an 8 foot privacy fence so there's no getting through that. I have a small crate with custom size pillow, and a medium plush crate in case your dog prefers to be crated at night. My yorkie has a very calm temperament and does not bark alot, I have yet to meet a dog that he does not like. When at someone else's home, I request that they write down all instructions, then tightly adhere to them. I ask a lot of questions to make sure both of us are on the same page. Most of all, I am very risk-averse - I am the type of owner who treats a dog as her child; I view myself as an "Au Pair" or "Nanny," and I hold the same standard of care for a dog as a human baby. I also like to keep the Owner updated with photos and videos since they are separated from their loved ones.

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life. I’ve fostered, adopted, and cared for many dogs. Puppies and kittens are my specialty, but senior animals deserve just as much love. I treat every animal like they’re my own. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine. With a flexible schedule, I can give pets the time, attention, and consistency they need. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or plenty of cuddles, I make sure every pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I care for dogs and cats by following their routines, providing meals, fresh water, exercise, playtime, affection, and plenty of patience and attention. My goal is simple: a happy pet is a cared-for pet

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 15, giving me 21 years of hands-on experience with dogs, cats, and small animals, including rodents. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, comfort level, and boundaries. What sets me apart is how mindful I am of an animal’s energy and body language. I don’t force interaction or expect every pet to warm up immediately. I’m patient, loving, attentive, and happy to let your pet set the pace while I earn their trust. Whether your pet is outgoing and affectionate, independent, shy, or just particular about how they like things done, I’ll care for them with the same patience, respect, and attention I would want for my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already structure my days around caring for my own dog. I’m used to daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and making sure pets get the attention and consistency they need. I’m available for walks and drop-ins outside of my weekday work hours, as well as evenings, weekends, and overnight house sitting. I’m reliable about routines and happy to follow your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible. I care for each pet based on their individual routine, personality, and comfort level. In a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow their normal feeding, walking, play, medication, and bedtime routines as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable while their owner is away. I’m very attentive to body language and energy, so I never force interaction. Whether a pet wants lots of affection and playtime or prefers a little more space, I let them set the pace. During walks and drop-ins, I focus on safety, exercise, fresh water, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention. I also understand that caring for someone’s pet means respecting their home. I’m clean, responsible, communicative, and happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for.

“Erin was accommodating with the times I needed and communicated throughout the planning and visit. As a new puppy mom, I felt comfortable knowing my puppy was getting great care!”

About: Can’t promise any training but they’ll be loved and cared for under my care! Whether your dog may be dog aggressive or the most playful, I have experience with my own with different personalities. I currently work remote and have a flexible schedule to do some drop ins and quick hang sessions/walks with your fur babies Mon-Fri. While my kids are in school, I’d be happy to stop and care for your pet! My dogs are my 2 other babies and I’ll be sure to care for your pets with the same care and respect with any specific instructions if need be.
