House Sitting Somerset

“Morgan took excellent care of my pets when I was away. I have a dog and two cats, one with special needs, and they absolutely loved Morgan! She played all day with the dog and took her for walks. She was really great with my cats also which can be a bit timid. I plan to use her again and would highly recommend her to anyone.”

About: Hi I'm Jake and I've been caring for pets my whole life—dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, you name it! I’m a friend everyone calls when they need someone reliable to take care of their pets, and I’m now turning that into something I genuinely enjoy doing. Even though my landlord won’t let me have a dog, I get my fix by caring for all kinds of pups and kitties through house sitting and drop-ins; these options are a great way for your pets to feel safe and loved in their own familiar environment while you're away. I’m super patient, reliable, trustworthy, great at following instructions, and I always keep you updated so you never wonder how your fur babies are doing. I’ve worked with everything from tiny Chihuahuas to big lovable labs, goldens, pitties, Frenchies, plus plenty of cats and critters in between. Whether your pets need walks, playtime, feeding, or just a calm buddy to hang with, I’m your guy—and I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe, and spoiled while you’re away. I do live a busy life including one full time job and as a business owner of a mobile DJ company. But my schedule is still perfect for house sitting/drop-ins (see availability). If you don't mind me being in and out throughout the day and home with your fur babies at night, then I'm your guy! * Please note: My standard rates cover clients within a 10-mile radius of my home. My maximum service area extends to a 25-mile radius (approximately a 30-minute drive in typical traffic). For clients between the 10-mile and 25-mile radius, an additional travel fee of $0.74 per mile will be added to the total booking cost to cover gas, wear and tear, and associated taxes/fees. Pet care fits really naturally into my weekly routine. I’m available seven days a week, with the most open availability from Sunday through Tuesday. On Wednesdays and Thursdays, I work later in the day (2:45–9 PM), so I’m free for morning, midday, and evening visits. Fridays and Saturdays are my busiest days with both my job and my business, but I can still do morning and evening visits—plus quick lunchtime drop-ins if you’re nearby. I’m also available for overnight house sitting any day of the week. I prefer bookings made about a week in advance, but I can occasionally take last-minute requests if my schedule allows. And yes, I’ve got reliable transportation to get to you and your pets with no problem. When I’m taking care of pets in your home, I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and totally spoiled in their own space. I follow your instructions exactly—feeding schedules, meds, routines, quirks, all of it—because every pet has their own little rhythm. I’m big on safety, so doors, gates, and anything a curious animal might get into get double-checked. And when it comes to your home, I treat it like it’s my own: respectful, clean, and never leaving a mess behind. Whether I’m popping in for a quick visit or settling in for an overnight stay, I keep things calm, fun, and consistent so your pets feel comfortable and you feel confident everything’s in good hands.

“Katie sat with our two small dogs while we were away for 10 days. Katie is very kind, responsible, and responsive. Our dogs were very well cared for and Katie kept us informed of how things were going every day. One of our dogs is very timid with new people and Katie was able to adapt and work with our dogs to make them both feel comfortable and secure while we were away. I highly recommend Katie as a pet and house sitter. She does her level best and we will call on her again to care for our pets in the future.”

“Lillian is extraordinary! A+++++++ Our pup Teddy gets anxious when we go away, even for a day. But it was obvious from the start that Teddy adored Lillian and felt safe with her. She kept in contact and sent the cutest pics, and we came home to a happy, at peace doggy. I really believe dogs sense people's character and emotions. Seeing Teddy so at peace and joyful tells me Lillian is trustworthy, loving, compassionate, and thoughtful. She met all of his needs and left him feeling secure and content. Lillian will be our first call every time we travel from now on!”

About: My name is Cameron, and I’m a dog trainer offering personalized training and boarding services designed around the unique needs of each dog. I take a thoughtful, intentional approach prioritizing structure, environment, and overall well-being so every dog in my care feels safe, understood, and set up to succeed. No two dogs are the same, which is why I tailor each stay to match their temperament, behavior, and needs whether that means building reliable obedience, working through behavioral challenges, or enjoying a balanced and structured day-to-day life. When dogs stay with me for boarding, they’re not just being watched they’re cared for with purpose. Each dog follows a structured daily routine that includes exercise, enrichment, rest, and play, all adjusted to their individual energy level and personality. I’m very intentional about creating a calm, controlled environment, whether a dog thrives in a social setting or needs more one-on-one time and space. A big part of my program includes getting dogs out into the real world in a safe and structured way. We incorporate long walks, hikes, and adventure-style pack walks to build confidence, improve behavior in new environments, and allow dogs to decompress in a healthy, fulfilling way. These outings aren’t just for exercise they’re intentional training opportunities that help dogs learn how to exist calmly and neutrally around new sights, smells, and distractions. I’ve had the opportunity to work with a wide range of dogs, from police K9s and sport dogs to beloved family pets and rescue cases. That experience allows me to confidently adapt to different drives, temperaments, and challenges. At the end of the day, my focus is on building clear communication, confidence, and trust so both you and your dog feel supported every step of the way. For the past four years, I have immersed myself in working with dogs across various fields, from pet dogs to police K9s and protection dogs. This diverse experience has enriched my skills and deepened my passion for canine care and training. My part-time job provides me with the flexibility to dedicate ample time to these incredible animals, allowing me to focus on their training, well-being, and development. This journey has been immensely rewarding, fostering a profound connection with each dog and enhancing my expertise in handling and training them. Ensuring the safety and well-being of dogs in my care is my top priority. I implement strict safety protocols, including secure environments, proper nutrition, regular health check-ups, and personalized training programs tailored to each dog's needs. I vigilantly monitor their behavior to prevent any potential issues and provide a nurturing atmosphere that promotes their physical and emotional health. By fostering a routine that balances exercise, socialization, and rest, I create a harmonious environment where each dog can thrive safely and happily.

About: I’ve grown up taking care of dogs, fish, and especially cats! I have training from the SPCA on dog walking, cat care, and some skill/behavioral training for both cats and dogs. I have 3 years of fish keeping experience. I currently have my own cat (he’s orange!) and I am fostering a mother and her kitten for the time being. I am willing to help clean around the house as well! I have indoor/outdoor plants and I can take care of your plants while you are away - I have a green thumb :) I’ve helped friends and clients with farm animals, including feeding and cleaning their spaces. If directed I can help with other farm projects. I am looking to take on as many hours as possible! I am currently in college, but only have classes Monday and Wednesday and can work around my school schedule. I am unable to bring pets home due to having my own cat and living in an apartment with a single pet deposit! But I am just fine coming to you! I offer dog walking, some behavioral training while pet sitting/walking, in home pet sitting, and I can do small cleaning projects for a minimal extra charge. I am gentle with the animals and can do grooming such as brushing and can try nail clipping if your pets allow it!

“Lily is amazing! Extremely conscientious, followed all instructions to a T, great communication and sent so many photos. And most importantly, the pups loved her. So happy to have found Lily!”

“This is the first time I left Lucy in 6 years. It was very difficult but I had no choice because my husband passed away and the service was to be in NY. I was afraid Lucy wouldn't eat or go out, but it worked out OK. She warmed up to Linnea and was fine when I came home.”

About: I’ve always loved animals. Everytime I’ve went over to a friends house I’ll sit there for hours playing with their pets. I like taking the time to get to know their little creatures and their adorable personalities. Caring for pets is truly one of life's greatest joys. The unconditional love and companionship they provide is unparalleled and they deserve the very best care. Dedicate time each day to attend to the needs of these wonderful animals is a privilege in itself. It's a reminder that hard work is essential in ensuring their well-being and happiness. I’ll make sure the animals are comfortable and safe with someone else in their home! It’s the pets territory and I will always respect their spaces.

“Kayla is wonderful! She is a great communicator and asks appropriate questions. She did great caring for our two senior dogs. We are looking forward to our next trip so Kayla can come again!”

“I highly recommend Ian! We have two Frenchies; a 2 year old and a pup who is just two months. It was clear after a night out to celebrate a special occasion that our fur kids had just as much fun and plenty of loving attention.”

About: I've had a love and passion for animals since I was a child. I adopted my first pet in 2014. A beautiful female Queensland Heeler and American Pitbull mix named Sadie. She has been my service animal for over 5 years. I began my pet care career as a pet shelter assistant. A few years later, I became a Grooming Salon Assistant and have been grooming every since. I have knowledge of most breeds and am comfortable working with any sized dog, any temperament. I have also worked as a Kennel Assistant in a Veterinary office. I learned the in and outs of boarding, administering medications, and making sure all pets get adequate care. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your pet(s)! I'm currently working part time but need extra money as I don't have enough hours. I have a fairly flexible schedule and can work out overnight stays. While caring for pets, I greet them and make sure they're comfortable with me. I like to offer treats and take the time to have them trust in me. I ensure all food bowls and water bowls are filled. I take them out for potty and walks every 2-4 hours. I ensure they get adequate play time, whether inside or outside. Give them lots of love and attention ☺️ All while abiding by your care rules, ie training, medications, etc.

“My dogs took to Dylyn immediately which is unusual for them. Within ten minutes after we left they were sitting in her lap. She is the best, and I highly recommend her!”

“Brandie stayed at my house for 4 days with my dog and 3 cats. She left the house in great condition and even watered my plants and brought in my mail. She is a natural with animals. My dog developed a tight connection with her and she did a great job taking care of him even in the very warm weather. She was great with the cats as well; playing with them and tending to their needs. I appreciate that she kept the dog and cats apart as they do not like each other. I highly recommend Brandie for your pet sitting and dog walking needs.”

About: There is no furry friend that I do no enjoy being around! I've had the opportunity to love and care for many different animals since I was very young. The last couple years I have fostered kittens and have been able to see more than 20 beautiful babies go to their furrever homes! I have owned, and taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes my entire life. I am able to give medication through injections, and am not shy with training either! My dream is to one day run an animal sanctuary for hurt and endangered animals. Sunday- Saturday 8am- 8pm I have an open schedule and would love to spend it with your animals! Don't hesitate to message me. I can work with whatever plans needed. I offer house sitting/pet sitting and dog walking. For both services I will be going to your home to either care for animals, or pick them up for a walk around your neighborhood. I look forward to seeing the next animal as it is always a special experience.
