House Sitting Sheldon

About: I have watched dogs of various sizes for friends, family, and neighbors. I follow care & feeding instructions very carefully to ensure my clients are comfortable and fed according to their dietary restrictions. All of my pets are also seniors, so I know what kind of patience and care goes into my elderly fur friends. I also tend to goats! My schedule is free for any animal that requires care at any time. Just drop me a message anytime from 10am-11pm and I’ll reply within 10 minutes! I will send photos and/or videos of your pets eating, walking, going outside, and their food bowl to ensure their safety and trust in your sitter!

“Danyel took care of our 2 y/o juvenile Golden. He’s big and bouncy and she managed him well. She took him for daily walks. She may have spoiled him a little but he was well loved while we were gone. She sent us updates several times a day with photos, which was like a dopamine hit for us every day. The house was as clean as we left it when we got home. We’ll definitely use her again.”

About: I've had a lot of dogs around me my entire life and am the first point-of-contact of my family members when they need their pets looked after. I had a miniature dachshund named Blue when I was 4 who lived to be 20 years old, so I have much experience taking care of young and old dogs. My schedule is currently very open. I recently graduated from college and am looking for work. I heard about this app from my step-sister and thought it sounded like a really fun thing to do while sending out job applications. I am unable to bring pets to my home, but I am open for drop-ins, overnight, all-day, & dog walking. I will protect your pet with my life, play with him/her a lot, and follow any instructions precisely.

“Patrick was an amazing pet sitter! He was great at sending me pics, texting me with questions and keeping me updated while I was away. We will definitely rebook Patrick!”

“Ayanna was great to work with -- very responsive, and able to take great care of our somewhat complicated and challenging dog. Would book her again for dog-sitting and house-sitting in a heartbeat.”

About: I've been housesitting since 2010, mainly cats and dogs. Multi-pet houses don't bother me and I'm good at keeping with your fur kids' schedules. I have and RVT license that is current and have been an RVT for over 10 years. I took a break from housesitting to work at animal hospitals, including a 24-hour critical care hospital in the ICU. Medications and medical treatments are no problem for me. I have an open schedule and am comfortable with either staying at your home for your pet's comfort, or I can visit everyday to make sure they are cared for. I adjust to their wants and needs and stick to their schedule. I'm low stress and understand that sometimes pets just need to warm up to you. As for my personal pets, there's four cats with totally different personalities that run the house (I just live there).

About: I do in kennel enrichment and dog walking at the SPCA. It has educated me a lot about positive reinforcement training, desensitization, compassion, and counter conditioning within dog behavior. I am very understanding of every dog's different temperaments and boundaries. I am the proud owner of Max, an 11 year old Pitbull who has been my best friend for over a decade. I am available anytime after 12pm, where your dog’s established routine becomes my priority. Whether they need strict mid-day feeding times or frequent potty breaks throughout the afternoon, I will be there for your pet. I am able to offer consistent, focused attention, structured enrichment, and companionship exactly when your pet needs it most. Safety is my top priority, with SPCA volunteer training and 11 years with my senior Pitbull, Max. In your home, I strictly follow your routine, maintain your house rules, and ensure all doors and gates stay locked and secure. On walks, my shelter experience means I am hyper-aware of our surroundings, good at reading dog body language, and fully confident being your dog's handler. I will send you regular photo updates so you have total peace of mind.

About: I have broad experience for caring for cats/dogs of all ages. I have experience with puppy/kitten care from days old on up. I also have extensive senior care experience. I am currently available Monday through Sunday. I can do overnight care, 24/7 care, check in and feedings and/or play time, play dates, and walking. Currently I have an elderly dog that’s 14 and 3 cats ages ranging from 3 years old to 15 years old. They are indoor pets. I do have a huge fenced in backyard that I allow the pets to roam on occasion.

“We absolutely adore Jordan - especially Matzo! He took to her immediately and she to him! She asked thoughtful and useful questions about his needs and preferences, was great at communicating while we were gone including sharing photos and updates, when we got home the house was neat and tidy and the dog had clearly had a good time! We’ll gladly request Jordan again and are so happy she was available.”

“Great communication with us and sending pictures. We were at ease knowing my babies were taken care of. My hyper anxiety dog took right to her so did my unsocial cat. That says a lot.”

About: I am 19 years old doing this so I can make some extra money on the side and currently take care of my older brother, who has autism, which has taught me how to remain composed, aware, and reliable in all situations. Those skills are easily applied to pet care, particularly with nervous, timid, or sensitive animals. For example, my own dog has depression anxiety which I make sure to tend to quickly! I can easily fit time with your lovely pets into my daily schedule. I'm free any time after 11AM because I get my brother on the bus at around nine in the morning. Since I'm still learning how to drive, I typically take the bus, train, or Uber to get around. The only thing I know is that I might have to wait until about 5 PM for my mom to return if she works overtime on a Friday, but that rarely ever happens. There is a chance that my schedule can improve so make sure to keep an eye out! I treat every pet under my care as if they were a member of my own family. Making them feel secure, understood, and loved is always my top priority. By feeding them on time, taking them for walks or play, and making sure they receive lots of attention and are comfortable, I try to keep things as simple as possible. I make sure they have everything they require, keep their area neat, and regularly change their water. To reassure the owner that their pet is happy, safe and in good care, I also provide updates and pictures

About: I’ve always had an affinity for animals. I trained & loved my 2 yorkies until they passed in their golden ages. I now have a 1 year old yorkie boy named Aston he is fixed, and very friendly. I also have a son that is 11 years old and he wants more pets, so I figured this would be a win win if we opted to be caregivers to give our guy a play friend and share our love of animals. Although my son will play with the pets, I assure that this time will be supervised and I will be the primary responsible caregiver. I work from home, as a life coach and my son is home schooled via zoom with his teacher. We can easily accommodate caring for additional pets during the week. I have a large, open real grass lawn space that is fenced in for there safety. I also Have all hardwood floors, so it’s very way to clean up any accidents if any occur.

About: Welcome to my profile! Hope you find what you’re lookin for. ❤️🐶 I have been a pet lover all my life and I've spent countless personal hours learning about our furry friends.. from physiology to behavioral sciences. I've trained and cared for every family dog that has passed through my home, which has given me in-depth experience with both young, old, and special needs pets. I am confident in my ability to care for your pet, big and small. You will find my hours extremely flexible, Mon-Fri: ANYTIME! Weekends: Negotiable (I am often volunteering at this time, but send me a message and I'll see what we can work out!) My own doggy gets fed and walked twice a day. I use a Redirect and Reenforce method that keeps dogs happy while maintaining good behavior. I keep safety in mind at all times, for example: never wearing headphones while outside with a pet- both animals and people can be unpredictable! Well versed with dog park etiquette if that is something you are interested in. If someone starts to get aggressive, we bounce!

About: I love dogs of all breeds and sizes. Growing up we had two labs and my neighbor fostered great danes, so I am very experienced with caring for large breeds. I often cared for my neighbors pets while they were out of town, so I have experience caring for a wide range of pets from cats and dogs to chickens and pigs. I work mostly remote, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet! I typically take pets on a long walk 2 times a day, in the morning and around 6-7pm. I am very responsible and detail oriented. I am pet friendly and very happy to let pets roam and sit on furniture, but am also able to crate train if desired. I am also very active and would love to take your pet on walks and hikes with me, but would also be happy relaxing at home keeping your pet company.

“Kaeli did a wonderful job with our fur babies!!! She provided many updates as we mentioned we loved photos and message updates, she gave our dogs great walks and took excellent care of our home! We wanted an honest person with a heart for dogs and this is certainly Kaeli!! We will absolutely be using her again!”

About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember, especially dogs! Spending time with animals brings me so much happiness, and I truly enjoy making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I am patient, responsible, and comfortable around dogs of all sizes and personalities. Whether it’s going on walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or just keeping them company, I always make sure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I also have a puppy of my own named Jugnu, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your fur baby. Having a puppy has taught me a lot about patience, consistency, and giving animals the love and attention they need every day. I know how energetic and playful puppies can be, and I genuinely enjoy being around them! I am flexible, dependable, and willing to adapt to your pet’s routine so they stay as comfortable and happy as possible. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, relaxing at home, or getting extra belly rubs, I’ll make sure they feel cared for and loved while you’re away! I have a flexible schedule and make pet care a priority in my daily routine. I’m available for walks, and pet sitting during weekdays and weekends. I’m reliable, responsive, and committed to giving pets consistent attention, exercise, and care while their owners are away. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment for every pet in my care. I always follow feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special instructions provided by owners. I focus on building trust with both pets and owners by being attentive, patient, dependable, and ensuring pets feel comfortable and secure at all times

“This was our first time leaving Zoya with a sitter after a whole year of the pandemic and we were worried Zoya might have separation anxiety. Abby came by for a meet and greet and was on time and very good with Zoya. Abby followed all our instructions and was easy to communicate with. The house was clean when we returned and Zoya was not hyperactive which meant she got all the walks and attentions she needed! I have a feeling she got more quality time with Abby than she does with us! I highly recommend Abby for your dog/house-sitting needs and will definitely be using her services in the future.”

“Gabriela played with my pups and they had a great time. She walked them and they went to the park. I haven’t been able to do that for quite a while. She is a superhero. We had a great conversation about tropical fish and I learned a lot about pets from her. I’ll be requesting Gabriela again.”

About: My pet care experience began when I started living with my uncle as a teenager. Back in the Philippines, he would rescue puppies and keep them in the house until he could find them a foster home. After school, I would go straight home and take care of the rescues. I would feed them and keep them hydrated, and then take them out for a walk. I also taught them tricks until they could master it without treats. I strongly believed that training is an essential part of their growth. When I moved here, I adopted Astrid as a puppy and she has been with me for 3 years now. My main skills with pets includes strict attention to time management, understanding their behaviors, and attending to their needs. Other skills include having patience, clear communication with owners, being on time, and being responsible with the duties given. I currently work part-time as a cook in a nursing home. On my days off, I usually stay at home either on my computer or take my dog to play outside. I have a lot of leisure time on these days, and I believe that pet sitting will fulfill these times and keep me busy. In my home, I ensure that my dog sleeps and naps comfortably when tired. I make sure that there’s food for her and water always refilled. I keep my dog active by walking around the neighborhood and going to the playground. I also play the guitar and sing songs to her when there is nothing else to do. When she wants to go outside, I let her run free in the backyard surrounded with fences and have a shaded area for her when it gets too hot. I would also leave the door open in case she wants a colder environment which is inside the house. In a client’s home, I would ensure that their pets are well fed and hydrated. If there is an accident, I would willingly be responsible for that and take care of it. I would make sure that their pets are also being engaged in activities so that they would feel less bored when the parents aren’t home.
