House Sitting in Shirley

“Very pleased with Jessie. Compassion and daily exercise were given our dog Elton. Would recommend to future clients and will book with her again.”

“Andrew was an absolute godsend while we were away!!! He took the BEST care of our dog, and sent us cute photos and videos each day! He truly listened to what we wanted for our dog (who is older and a little stubborn) and went above and beyond in terms of caring for her like his own beloved pet. He checked in with us to ensure that we were ok with certain things, and did an amazing job of keeping us reassured that things were all a-ok, which was particularly nice since it was our first time experiencing an in-home pet sitter. He left our house in nicer condition than when we left it. I’m pretty sure my dog misses him now that we are home! We have already told him we will be using his services again in the future!!!”

“Abbey did a great job with my two dogs when I went on an overnight trip. She had great communication and sent me some cute pictures of them. I don’t often leave them with someone they don’t know, but Abbey was splendid and I would definitely book her again!”

“Paige is very good with animals and she loves them. She's worked with animals before and has a lot of experience with them. I would trust her to watch my fur babies anytime!”

“Lorrie was great! She sent us many pictures and videos of our girls while we were away. She had great communication and cleaned up after herself, so we came home to happy pups and a clean house! Would recommend to anyone!”

“Marilyn was awesome!!! She took very good care of my boys and gave updates and sent photos of how they were doing the entire time she stayed at my home watching the dogs. Marilyn is very kind, accommodating and caring for your dogs needs and is very trustworthy and highly recommended. I can’t say enough good things, I will use Marilyn in the future”

“I got photos and updates daily. Kari even vacuumed and ran the dishwasher. My three dogs enjoyed their time with her and I was able to enjoy my time away knowing they were able to stay home with a reliable person . Highly recommend”

“Steph was great! She watch my dog Toothless for 2 days while I was out of town. It was great to receive photo updates of Toothless while I was away. She was very communicative and friendly. Will definitely use again!”

“Kim did an amazing job taking care of our 2 goldendoodle puppies while we were gone all day! They were exhausted from playing and took a nap when we got home! They loved her! She is very personable and reliable!”

“Rachel treated my home with respect, and took very good care of my 3 dogs. Some of my dogs were rescues and have trauma, but it’s clear Rachel was gentle with them and there wasn’t any issues. I would definitely work with her again because my pets don’t usually get along with other people as well as they did with her.”

“Just got home dogs were glad to see us house was clean it was just like we left for a few hours. I would recommend Haley most definitely she's a responsible and caring individual. I totally recommend Haley for any future need .”

“Samantha took great care of my dog and cat while we were away. Getting pictures and updates really set me at ease.”

About: I am a professional caregiver ( RN on an hiatus) and have had pets since childhood. I miss having pets and love to care for yours. As a nurse and mom I will love and care for your pet, keep them safe and follow any instructions you have . If you need any pet transportation I have a hatchback as well for ease of use. Let me know what your pets need and I will provide it. I work less than 20 hours a week from home which allows me to be available daily & on weekends! If you need just a walk, a drop-in or overnight stays I will do my best to make it work. Although I can’t currently care for pets in my home , I look forward to giving individual attention and respect privacy and confidentiality of every family I care for in your space. Whether you welcome me into your space or just need a quick walk for your dog, puppy or cat , I’m up for the exercise . I know pet exercises are important and play time is how they learn, grow and stay healthy. If your babies are not well I can also provide sick care as needed. As a previous pet-sitter, and nanny too I have references as needed.

“Grace is always so great with our dog Ellie! I don’t have to worry about her knowing she’s in great hands! She always communicates timely and sends great pictures! We use her whenever we go out of town!”

“Megan is a great pet sitter. She was hired to check on the cats and feed them. She did that plus took time to brush them which they needed badly. When I returned they were happy, still had food and water and looked amazing after their “spa treatment “. I will hire Megan again.”

About: *I will sit intact animals. Rover won’t let me turn that preference off* I have owned dogs my whole life and a passion for animals has always been an integral personality trait. I’ve been a volunteer at The Animal Protection League in Anderson for nearly a year and enjoy it dearly. I offer entry level puppy and adult dog training, walking, hiking, running, or cuddling (if your dog is more that speed). I currently have two senior dogs and understand senior pet needs. I’m currently a student with no other jobs, so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pup! I am available Monday, Wednesday, and Friday anytime after noon and all day on Saturday and Sunday. From volunteering at the shelter, I have been around many different types of dogs and know how to read their body language. Respecting space goes a long way with dogs. Depending on your house rules, I will find ways to adequately care for your dog and can even drive them to the park for walks if you would like!

About: Pets have been part of my life since I was a child. I began working in a dog boarding facility during my high school years and followed the animal track into my college education and became a licensed veterinary technician. I have pet sitting and veterinary working experience with dogs, cats, cattle, chickens, and horses. I worked in a mixed animal veterinary practice as a licensed veterinary technician for 4 years, then moved to an equine only veterinary practice for close to 5 years and currently at an equine veterinary practice employed as a registered veterinary technician. I have a 2 year old spayed golden retriever who travels everywhere with me as well as a 10 year old shorthair female spayed cat who enjoys her days sunbathing in the sunshine. I work full time as a registered veterinary technician; I typically work 4 days a week with one day off and approximately every 4th weekend at the clinic. I have availability in the evenings, days off, and most weekends. My golden girl loves to play and have company and the cat will offer her cuddles as well during in home stays. I constantly observe the pets I care for and make sure they are happy and healthy. I tailor my care for each individual; whether they enjoy multiple walks, adventures, or just want extra cuddles their happiness is my top priority.

“Danielle has grown up with pets both dogs and cats. She is an animal lover and has always helped to take good care of them. She also volunteers at the Humane Society and enjoys it tremendously.”

“Brittany was an employee that I managed a few years ago. She is a dog lover 110%. Brittany house sat form me and my 3 dogs a couple of years ago when we went to Universal Studios, Orlando. My dogs fell in love with her and she did everything correct from regular feeding times to medications to putting them out in the backyard to potty. I know in my heat that your pets will be in safe hands with Brittany.”

“Huge backward for your doggies to play in! Heather is very nice and will take great care of your doggies! Your doggie will also get to play along with her sweet doggie! 100% recommended!”
