House Sitting Sherborn

“Linh is fantastic! She house sat for our two pups while we were on vacation for a week. I'm usually nervous about leaving our pups with a new sitter, especially after we had a bad experience with one (not thru Rover) a few years back. But Linh's knowledge and calm, confident demeanor instilled confidence in me so I was able to relax and enjoy our vacation. She sent updates and frequent photos throughout the week. Not only did she leave our house the way we left it, but she washed all of the sheets and towels which was not expected but very much appreciated. We will be using her again for our next vacation and I know the pups will be excited to see her again!”

“Julianna took great care of our two dogs in our home for several nights. She was especially good with our skittish dog, taking things slow and moving at our nervous dog's pace. We also got plenty of pictures while we were away and came home to a clean house and two happy dogs.”

“Elizabeth was great with our pets (two dogs, two cats)! They clearly enjoyed her being here. She kept us up to date with timely reports and a few pictures (which is what we asked for). When our German shepherd hurt her foot jumping off the retaining wall, which she does all the time, Elizabeth helped us assess whether she needed a vet visit or not. We look forward to having Elizabeth watch the pets again!”

“Once again Marilyn has done a superb job staying over and taking care of my cat kids. She does the essentials, of course, but also engages them in a lot play as evidenced by the pictures she sends each day. It is clear that my cats really like her, and Marilyn remains my go-to sitter.”

“Carolyn really took the time to asses the needs of our family. We had a last minute change in plans and had to travel the next day, then our dog had some extra medical needs which is not something most people want to deal with, but Carolyn came through and was able to spend overnight with our dog at home. We appreciate the positive attitude and can-do way of acting. Thanks again , would recommend to everyone.”

About: I have 15+ years of hands-on pet care experience, including 10 years working in a professional grooming shop as a bather. That experience made me very comfortable handling dogs of different sizes, breeds, personalities and energy levels. I have also owned and cared for large-breed dogs throughout my life, including Dobermans, Rottweilers and pit bulls, so I am genuinely comfortable with big dogs. I understand that a 90-pound dog who is excited to see you is a very different experience from walking a 15-pound dog! I have experience administering subcutaneous medications to my own pets and am comfortable giving oral medications as directed. I am also happy to follow specific feeding, walking and care routines. Most importantly, I treat each pet as an individual. I want to know their routine, quirks, favorite things and what makes them comfortable so I can care for them the way you would. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to accommodate weekday walks and drop-in visits throughout the day, including the popular midday hours. I’m also available for morning and evening visits and can often accommodate weekends with advance notice. I’m happy to work with recurring weekly schedules as well as occasional care when you’re traveling or have a long day away from home. I care for pets in their own home with the same attention and respect I would expect for my own. I carefully follow each pet’s feeding, walking and medication instructions, keep doors and gates secure, and make sure pets are safely settled before I leave. I respect your home and privacy, clean up after pets, and provide updates so you know how they’re doing while in my care.

“Charlene was amazing!!!! She took such good care of our 2 dogs and cat. They were in love with her from the start! Lots of updates and photos throughout the day. I’d highly recommend!!”

About: I've been walking my dogs my whole life; I've had an Akita, two Shiba Inus, and one husky mutt (all raised from puppies). I have dealt with all of the care required. I've taken care of many of my family and friend's pets as well as worked at a dog day care "3 muttskateers" for half a year. Im currently interning at a nearby studio and would love to spend some of my free time walking or checking in on dogs. I live near Leicester and am willing to make drives to spend time with your furry friend. I am very patient with dogs, allowing them to take the time they need to do what they need to do. I am aware that most dogs have boundaries, and just because they are showing them does not make them badly behaved at all. If instructed, I also have a lot of experience being stern.

“It’s such a comfort to know that Shelby is caring for my dogs when I travel. The dogs love her, and she is very reliable and professional! Excellent house sitter and we will keep booking with her. Thank you, Shelby!”

About: I grew up with dogs and have a dog and a cat. I have house sat for both dogs and cats. I have even looked after animals with special needs. I know what it takes to earn an animals trust and make them feel safe and cares for :) I am available to pet sit or check-in on your animals, take them for walks (etc) seven days a week! I have plenty of time to play with and get to know your animals. I am very respectful of clients homes and the rules they lay down. I want to care for your pets in the way you would!

“She took excellent care of my dog!”

“Jonathan did an outstanding job taking care of our Sophie and our home. Sophie, our lab, did not want Jonathan to leave. He took great care of Sophie and we would definitely use him again. We highly recommend Jonathan.”

“Sarah did an excellent job taking care of my dog and cat over a two night trip. They were clearly well cared for and my dog was super happy with all the walks! I highly recommend Sarah. She is prompt, professional and very kind with my pets.”

“Easton had fun playing and having a buddy for the night. He was well taken care of”

About: I have worked for the WAG! app for over a year now. I've always enjoyed caring for friends and neighbors pets when they were away from home. I've also always had at least 2 pets of my own. I'm currently taking the year off to go back to school. Since all of my courses are online, I am able to remain home each day to care for the animals in my care. I have a large yard that is partially fenced in with a very long run setup across the yard. I also live extremely close to walking trails and have private beach access.

“Anna was absolutely terrific. She connected well with the dogs and kept great care of them. They are very active and she was as well. The house was spotless upon return. She also kept us very informed of what was happening with photos and text as needed. Again she is awesome.”

“Kelsey did a great job housesitting with our cat Sasha while we were away for the weekend. She arrived on time, sent updates (with photos) a few times a day and was always quick to respond. The last time we left Sasha with a sitter she was stressed out and didnt eat while we were away. However, Sasha played, ate and used the litterbox as usual with Kelsey. We also came back to a very clean and neat home. We will definitely be using Kelsey again!”

About: I have always loved dogs and even have a dog of my own. I am extremely patient and consider myself to be kind. I work as a kindergarten teacher so I am used to taking care of things and tending to their needs. As a kindergarten teacher, I have lots of free time on weekends and school breaks, and I figured the best use of my time would be to do something I already enjoy doing and also help other people out as well. Since I already own a dog of my own I am very conscientious of what dogs can or cannot do, eat, or be near. I try to play with them as much as possible and be friendly with them so they feel comfortable around new people.

“Cassie was great with our dogs and cats. She sent the greatest pictures of the pets, which made us smile! She was great to work with and we'll hire her again.”

About: I am a medical student who loves pets! I grew up with dogs in my home and always have one around me if I can help it. Experience boarding and walking dogs of all ages and sizes. Great at giving necessary medications and caring for any needs that arise. I’ve walked for Wag previously. I’m currently studying full time, so I’ll be able to fit in dog walks and give lots of love and attention! We have a big backyard so potty breaks will happen often. The weekends almost always work unless I’m out of town. I have a fenced yard. Currently no other pets in the home, but furniture is dog friendly. I’ve raised dogs for 14 years of my life and regularly pet sit for friends and coworkers. From the miniature breeds to the breeds that weigh hundreds of pounds, I’m comfortable with them all.
