House Sitting Shillington

“Daniel gets squeals of delight normally reserved for family members from Nestle, my 8 year old red labradoodle, the minute she sees him! Daily photos let me know all is well with everyone while I'm gone so I can be present at work and with family.”

“We have used Samantha for extended house sitting and caregiving for our elderly, blind cat. She is just the most reliable, compassionate, meticulous and competent young woman! We trust her completely with our home and our beloved cat. We admire her and wholeheartedly recommend her!”

About: I have experience in working with senior care I have the skill of picking up after them, feeding them the right meals and helping them with other everyday tasks and needs. I will be a available to work for pets either mornings and afternoons. My schedule to care for them depends when I’m off in my main job, does not matter if it’s weekdays or weekends. I will make the pets feel comfortable by respecting their home firstly and boundaries as well. I will make sure they get what they need and follow owners instructions.

“Having a separation-anxiety dog, makes us nervous about leaving him. However, Brenda put our mind at ease at the meet and greet. When at our house, she took the extra step of taking him for a walk and playing games with him to occupy the time and keep his mind off our absence. She followed the directions we gave for him and kept us informed with a photo and texts. We were pleased with her attention to him, and it seems like they hit it off well. He now has a new friend, whom he will see in the future. Thanks, Brenda”

About: I have a Chihuahua named Louie and I look after him daily. I also pet-sit and walk my family’s pets when they need me. When my neighbor travels I walk her dog and feed both her dog and her cat. I like having animals around and I treat them the way I would want my own treated. It would fit as a weekend option. I am available Saturdays and Sundays, and I work full-time Monday through Friday as a logistics coordinator. I like clear instructions and a set routine. I keep my own spaces orderly and treat other people’s homes the same way. In a client’s home I would follow the owner’s directions, stick to the pet’s usual schedule, and leave the space as I found it. I let the animal set the pace for petting and play, and I handle the basics — food, water, litter, and comfort — without forcing interaction. I am available Saturdays and Sundays.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve grown up with cats and have always loved caring for them, which naturally led me to want to expand my experience with dogs as well. I began working at a doggy daycare, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of all different personalities, needs, medications, and energy levels. Today, I’m fortunate to make a living doing what I love—caring for other people’s pets. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family members, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet needs lots of playtime and attention, a calm companion, or simply some extra love while you’re gone, I’m happy to provide dependable and compassionate care. Your pets will always be treated with the same patience, kindness, and attention I would want for my own. I work full-time with dogs at a daycare facility and usually work second shift, so I have my mornings and afternoons free to hang out with your furry friend! We can spend the day going on walks, playing, getting some good snuggles in, and of course, taking plenty of naps. Then I’ll be back in the evening for dinner time, more cuddles, and some cozy bedtime company! When I’m caring for your pets in their home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible! I’ll follow all of the instructions you leave for me, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any little routines or preferences that help your pet feel at home. I’ll also make sure they have plenty of love, attention, and companionship while you’re away. I’ll send you regular photo and care updates so you can see how your furry friend is doing and have peace of mind while you’re gone! I’m respectful of your home and will always leave things clean and tidy. Most importantly, I’ll take the time to get to know your pet and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away.

“We are so grateful for Reagan's help last minute. She took care of our dog and kept him company while we traveled. I really appreciated the pictures and prompt communication!! Booking her again!!!”

About: I've had big dogs my entire life so I'm incredibly confident in my abilities to take the best care possible of your dogs! I get along great with dogs young and old as well as big and small and have had experience dealing with reactive dogs as well. I didn't have cats growing up due to family members' allergies but I have been cat sitting for a few years for my friends and I hope to one day own a cat as well :) I've also had experience working with fish, frogs, geckos, and other small animals. I love critters big and small and work great with all types of animals! I'm a senior at the University of Maryland with a fairly relaxed schedule so I have more than enough time to make sure I'm there for your pets in every way possible! I live in an apartment on campus so unfortunately I am not currently able to board animals but I have a car so I can drive to you and can access dog parks, pet stores, and vets easily if need be. I have no allergies to pet saliva or dandruff and am comfortable working with all kinds of animals!

“Susan was phenomenal. We took an extended vacation and it was the longest we’ve left our pets alone, which made us very nervous. Thank goodness we found Susan because I can’t imagine using anyone else for this trip. Our initial meet went great and she listened and asked questions. The animals loved her immediately. She was so attentive to our pets needs as well as our home. Our house looked just as we left it, which means she cleaned because I know the pet hair gets crazy after even a few days! Her checkins were perfect and she was always ready to send adorable pictures and updates. I’ve have sitters that don’t send enough updates and others that ask a ton of questions (questions I answer on the instructions I leave), but Susan was perfect in her communication and utilized the instructions we provided but asked if it was something I felt I should be informed of. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We have a clan of senior, special needs, medication needs, and stubborn personalities and she handled them all with such ease and absolute love. I could tell the animals received the best care while we were away. We will absolutely be using her again!”

I work as a personal trainer Monday through Friday which leaves me with a very flexible schedule. I am in control of my hours and have gaps throughout my work days giving me the perfect opportunity to use that time to care for your pets whether that means stopping in to check up on them or taking them on a walk! Also an excuse for me to get some exercise and help those high energy pets get theirs as well! I carefully follow all care instructions, respect your home and pets routine, and always double check doors and gates! Also understand pets body language making sure they feel comfortable at all times!

About: Your pet deserves more than just a sitter, they deserve someone who genuinely cares. Hi! I’m Danita, and caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I truly enjoy. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether your dog loves long walks, jogging, playing fetch, or simply curling up beside someone who gives them lots of affection, I’ll tailor their stay to their individual personality and routine. As someone who lives an active lifestyle, I especially enjoy taking energetic dogs on walks, hikes, or runs (with your approval). If your dog prefers a slower pace, I’m just as happy spending quality one-on-one time giving them love, attention, and gentle exercise. My goal is simple: To care for your pet exactly the way I would want someone to care for mine. What You Can Expect: 🐾 Lots of love and attention 🐾 Walks, playtime, enrichment, and exercise 🐾 Optional jogs or runs for active dogs 🐾 Potty breaks on schedule 🐾 Fresh water always available 🐾 Medication administration if needed 🐾 Plenty of belly rubs and cuddles 🐾 Daily photo and video updates 🐾 Clear communication throughout your pet’s stay I know how difficult it can feel leaving your pet behind. I’ll make sure you feel connected every step of the way. My Care Philosophy: Every dog is different. Some need exercise. Some need patience. Some need confidence. Some simply need someone who makes them feel safe. Before every booking, I take time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, favorite toys, feeding schedule, commands, and anything else that helps them feel comfortable. I believe consistency creates confidence, and that’s exactly what I strive to provide. Exercise & Adventures: If your dog enjoys being active… We’ll have fun! I love: 🐕 Walks 🏃 Jogging 🌳 Nature walks 🎾 Fetch 🦴 Mental enrichment games I’ll always match your dog’s age, health, and energy level. Safety always comes first. Communication: You’ll never wonder how your pet is doing. I send regular: 📸 Photos 🎥 Videos 💬 Updates because I know they’re part of your family. Before Booking: Please tell me about: • Feeding routine • Favorite toys • Commands they know • Medications • Energy level • Potty schedule • Any fears or anxieties The more I know, the better experience I can create for your pet. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! ❤️🐾 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve. I enjoy staying active, so regular walks, playtime, potty breaks, and even runs with energetic dogs are something I genuinely look forward to. Whether your pet needs lots of exercise or prefers a slower pace with plenty of affection, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care, consistency, and lots of love throughout the day. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they experience as little disruption as possible while you’re away. I closely supervise pets, keep fresh water available at all times, follow feeding schedules carefully, and provide plenty of exercise, enrichment, and affection. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and individualized care, and I’ll treat your furry family member as if they were my own. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how they’re doing.

I will watch your pets at home, I will keep an eye on them and walk them on a leash if need or keep them in the fenced area. If its a cat, I will gladly feed it, ill play with it, and make sure it doesn’t get outside if its an indoor one!

I make sure that the animals are always taken care of, they are fed, walked daily, played with and give lots of love and attention to them!

“We were really anxious about our first dog/house sitting gig, but Mack did a great job with our 3 needy and spoiled pups. We were gone for 5 nights. She sent many photos, and my pups loved her. We have 2 dogs that require medications, and she followed the instructions to the letter. Our house looked great when we got home, and my pups were excited to see us - but not overly so - which lets me know that they really enjoyed their time with her. I highly recommend her, and we will definitely use her again.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Zachary! He stayed at our home for four nights while we were away, and we came home to a clean house and a very happy dog! Luna absolutely loved him, and it was clear she was comfortable and well cared for the entire time. Zachary was great about communicating and regularly sent us photos and videos, which we really appreciated. He even went out of his way to spend time with our rabbit, Miso, who didn’t necessarily need much care, and sent us updates on her too! It was so sweet seeing her warm up to him. He was respectful of our home, attentive to our animals, and genuinely seemed to enjoy spending time with them. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We would absolutely book with Zachary again and highly recommend him!”

Erika H.

“This is Ben’s third time watching Duncan, and I couldn’t be happier with the care he provides! Ben is incredibly dependable, responsive, and always keeps me updated while I’m away. It gives me such peace of mind knowing Duncan is in good hands. I highly recommend Ben to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable dog sitter. I will definitely be using him again!”
