House Sitting in Shirley

“Aviana was available for us last minute, and she did great with our two dogs! We have a 100+ lb puppy and Aviana was awesome with her. She kept us informed and sent daily pictures. We are so glad to have a trusted person to watch our dogs!”

“Highly recommend booking Kyra! She took great care of our dog Dax in our home while we were on vacation. She was able to stay with him all day at our house. Incredible communication throughout the process! She sent us updates with photos every morning and evening, and kept him on his usual schedule with multiple walks per day. She even went above and beyond by sweeping up dog hair around our house and picking up sticks Dax had strewn around our patio. Definitely favoriting Kyra the next time we need someone to watch Dax!”

“We’re really grateful that we found Ariana through this app! This was our first time leaving our fur babies and she knew I was extra anxious about it. We have a dog that needs medicine twice a day and she handled it easily and professionally. She kept me up to date all weekend and it really helped ease my mind while we were gone. She was great and our dogs did really well with her. We will definitely book her services again!”

About: **Pet Care Experience** As a passionate and dedicated pet sitter, my experience is enriched by my love for animals and my commitment to their well-being. What sets me apart from other sitters is my diverse skill set and my attention to the individual needs of each pet. I have experience with a variety of breeds and temperaments, allowing me to tailor my care to suit each animal’s personality. My background includes: - **Training Puppies:** I have successfully trained several puppies in basic obedience commands and socialization techniques, ensuring they develop good behavior and build confidence. I utilize positive reinforcement methods to encourage desired behaviors. - **Senior Pet Care:** I understand the unique requirements of senior pets, such as dietary restrictions, medication management, and gentle exercise routines. I take the time to ensure they are comfortable and provide engaging activities to keep them mentally stimulated. - **First Aid Certification:** I'm certified in pet first aid and CPR, which gives me the ability to handle emergencies effectively and provide immediate care when needed. - **Personalized Care Plans:** I create individualized care plans for each pet, considering their health needs, daily routines, and preferences. This helps foster a sense of security and comfort while their owners are away. With my experience and special skills in pet training and senior care, I strive to provide a nurturing environment that promotes happiness and health for every pet I sit. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, seamlessly blending with my lifestyle and responsibilities. Here’s how I incorporate it: 1. **Morning Routine:** My day starts with a commitment to my own pets or the pets in my care. I ensure they are fed, given fresh water, and taken for a morning walk. This not only helps with their physical health but also establishes a positive start to I maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate various pet care needs. Whether it’s visiting pets during the day for walks and playtime or providing overnight stays, I adjust my activities to ensure each pet receives the attention Throughout the day, I check in with the pets I’m caring for, observing behavior and ensuring they are happy and comfortable. This includes play sessions, training exercises, or simply spending quality time together. I prioritize communication with pet owners. I send regular updates and photos, giving them peace of mind while they are away. This helps build trust and keeps everyone informed about how their pets are doing. In the evenings, I often dedicate time to enrichment activities such as training sessions, games, or leisurely walks. This not only helps with physical exercise but also strengthens the bond between pets and myself. On weekends, I like to plan longer outings or visits to local parks, giving pets the chance to explore new environments and socialize with other animals. These outings help keep them engaged and happy. By incorporating pet care into my daily and weekly routine, I ensure that the pets I look after receive consistent and loving attention, contributing to their overall well-being and happiness. Caring for pets, whether in my home or in my client's home, requires a tailored approach that prioritizes the comfort, safety, and well-being of the animals. Here’s how I manage pet care. My home is equipped with a pet-friendly environment, ensuring that there are no hazards such as toxic plants, small objects, or chemicals within reach. I have designated areas for pets to relax and play. 2. **Daily Routine:** Pets staying with me benefit from a structured routine that includes feeding, exercise, and playtime. I adhere to the feeding schedule provided by the pet owner to foster a loving atmosphere through regular interaction, bonding activities, and enrichment exercises. Whether it's playing fetch, engaging in training sessions, or cuddling, I ensure that pets feel happy and secure. 4. **Health Monitoring:** I keep a close eye on the pets for any signs of discomfort or health issues. Regular check-ins and playtime help me I understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s routine in their familiar surroundings. I follow the client’s specified feeding, walking, and play schedules to provide consistency and comfort. 2. **Safety Protocols:** I ensure that the home is secure, checking that doors and windows are locked and that pets are provided with a safe area to relax. If applicable, I also supervise interactions with other pets or children.

“Patty is the BEST pet sitter! Her updates were filled with so much love and care for my pups – she treated them like they were her own! Patty went the extra mile by coordinating with my roommate and handling all those extra tasks that most wouldn’t do. Even with my last-minute requests, Patty was unbelievably accommodating and managed to fit in a meet-and-greet the night before. I can't express enough how thankful I am for her incredible efforts. When I returned from my two-week trip, my dogs were so calm and content. That's how I know they had the best care possible. A massive thank you to Patty – she's an absolute gem! And can we talk about Riley, her dog? The sweetest companion ever! We're definitely counting on Patty for our future pet-sitting needs. Highly recommend :-)”

About: I never thought I would be so happy with just being around dogs until I became a handler. It’s been a great experience and something I plan on doing for a long time. I’m very flexible with my schedule , a days notice would be great but not required to book . During the week 8am-3pm I may not be available to walk dogs, but inquiry is recommended.Anytime before or after should be fine! I AM NOW currently boarding dogs will happily and responsibly house sit with your dog(s) , during the evening for multiple hours or overnight on weekends if needed.

About: I may be young with dyed hair and piercings, but I love furry, feathery, and scaly friends to the moon and back! I have an open schedule, and I try to be as accommodating as possible. I grew up with what I feel is almost every type of animal imaginable, so nothing gets past me. I have also grown up around many litters of puppies, so I have experience bottle-feeding and attending to needs. I also have dealt with animals diagnosed with dementia and other health problems they just need a little extra love and time is all! I also have handled disabled pets including missing appendages and paralysis. I love being able to give pets the attention and time they need and deserve while the owners can be worry-free. Pet care is my priority! I currently don’t have a job since I just moved to this area a couple of months ago so I am completely available to give furry friends the attention they need. Since I am not in a position to take pets into my own home I try to be my absolute best wherever I am! I am a big advocate for respect not only to others but their property as well so when working with clients and their homes I hold myself to a standard of leaving everything as it was unless specifically told otherwise. Doing this can also help me build trust with the pet simply as an acknowledgment that I understand that it is their territory and I am in their space.

About: Ever since I was a little girl I’ve always had a pet that I’ve loved and cared for. I love animals and enjoy taking care of them. I currently am working a part time job. I am available pretty much any day of the week and on the weekends. Whatever is needed I am able to work it out to fit the needs of the care needed. I have a fenced yard. I am able to crate train if needed. I also have one dog of my own who would love to play with other pets.

“I am so glad to have found Victoria! She is so caring and gentle, I knew she was the one I was looking for when I saw my dog approach her right away and lick her hand, which she usually never does! She took such good care of my 17 year old dog, and sent me multiple updates with photos/videos everyday. I will definitely be requesting her again! Thank you so much again Victoria :)”
