House Sitting Somerville

About: I have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I absolutely adore animals of all kinds, especially cats. I have experience caring for my kitty that had cancer, including providing subcutaneous fluids, medications/fluids/food through a feeding tube, and administering liquid, capsule, tablet, and transdermal medications. I also have experience with other feline medical issues, such as chronic urinary blockages and feline asthma. Further, I have never lived in a home without a dog, and have a background in animal behavior, training, grooming, and health. I have no problem providing medications to any animals and have experience with seniors. I love dogs of all sizes, especially huge dogs! I am available 24/7 and am extremely flexible with scheduling! I am fully self-employed and I have an extremely open schedule. I have no problem with short-notice cancellations or applications, and will almost always be able to take on your request! I will fully adapt to you and your pet’s schedule. My job is to maintain your pet’s wellbeing and enrichment, so that is what I’m there to do!

“PLEASE do yourself a favor and hire Ty as your next Rover sitter. she was on time, so attentive, and provided so many updates. We really do not leave our fur baby with many people, but I felt really comfortable leaving her with Ty. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!”

“Kayla was the best Rover we’ve ever used. She sent us pictures daily of our pups and she was extremely communicative. We did a meet up before our trip just so she could meet the pups and they warmed up to her right away (dogs know ?) You won’t regret using Kayla as your in home dog sitter. She treated our home with respect and we came home exactly the way we left it.”

I currently live with two dogs — a poodle and a Doberman mix — so your pet will be in a comfortable, animal-friendly environment.

About: Had to make new account *** Hi, my name is Carson! I have been dog sitting for 10 years now. In high school I worked at Sidle Hill Farms (Dog boarding) in Southhaven, MS. I then gained clients and have been pet sitting from my home and others ever since. I have always dreamed of opening my own dog boarding and then remember I won't even take my own dog to be boarded! That is why I do what I do now, to nurture to love and to calm your pets nerves. I understand that it can be sometimes even more nerve racking for the owner then the pet... I am that owner! My husband Alex and I live in Oakland, Tn with a gorgeous fenced in yard as pictured. I work from home and usually never leave the house unless I go to Walmart up the street. We do not have any children and do not plan on it anytime soon! We are totally content with fur babies for now! A typical day at our home for your pet would include waking up in our bed, breakfast, mornings outside pending on weather (I have an outdoor desk), playing with millions of toys we can't seem to stop buying and of course when Alex comes home a walk around the neighborhood. We can't wait to meet you and your sweet fur baby! Dogs and cats are my whole life I care for them just as children. I love exercise and getting outside so pet care has come as a joy to me not just a chore. Dog walking, bathing, playing, co sleeping, cooking for pets if needed, taking them to groomers ect.. I am available to your pets needs as well as yours!

About: Hi! I'm a pre-vet student with hands on animal care experience and a genuine love for animals of all kinds. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can fully trust, so I focus on providing attentive, dependable care while making sure your pet feels safe and loved! Whether its walks, playtimes, feeding, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet as my own. My goal is to give owners peace of mind while creating a fun, calm, and caring experience for their pets. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine and is something I prioritize and plan around. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent care, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and some weekends depending on the day. I’m able to accommodate regular visits, drop-ins, walks, and feeding schedules, and I make sure to build my commitments around each pet’s needs. I’m reliable with timing and communication, so pet parents can feel confident their pets are being checked on and cared for as planned. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and familiar environment by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I pay close attention to feeding instructions, medication schedules, and any specific behavioral needs or preferences each pet has. I make sure doors are secured, litter boxes are clean, water is fresh, and the space is kept tidy and comfortable. I also focus on building trust with each pet by moving at their pace, especially with shy or anxious animals, and giving them gentle attention and reassurance. I treat every home with respect and care, keeping everything clean and leaving things exactly as I found them. My goal is always to ensure both pets and owners feel safe, comfortable, and confident while I’m there.

“Adel is the best! He has watched our pups numerous times and always does an amazing job. The dogs love him and we feel good knowing that we can travel without stress because we know they are happy and well taken care of. He also takes great care of the house and even did laundry! Would recommend him 100%”

About: Growing up in a heavily animal-oriented household, I fell in love with caring for animals of all kinds. With a mother who is a professional groomer and previously a vet tech, I was exposed to dogs and animals of all breeds, temperaments, ages, and more. I have been taking on animal sitting “gigs” for as long as I can remember, and love every animal I meet! I am versed in different medical care and always willing to learn anything to help. I currently work full time with dogs on a daily basis, but love to fit in extra care when I can. I am often available for house visits, overnight visits, and more! Ideally for overnight visits, the pup/pet would be okay for 8 hours at a time due to work, but always willing to be flexible or work around as best I can. I love getting to care for pet’s in their own home, as it adds an extra level of comfort for them. I love learning their routines and following a structure that is familiar to them to make things a little less stressful!

About: Hi my name is Steve I'm a 58-year-old retired male who has had pets my whole life. I have been providing over-night pet/house sitting for 20 plus years with many repeat customers. I have provided stays from a "long week-end" to 7 weeks at time. I am trustworthy and dependable on each and every job. I believe its easier for pets to get more comfortable with a new person rather then a new environment. Pets also love their routines so following them is very important to me. Some of my included duties are mail collection, garbage collection, plant watering, and keeping your pets and home safe while your away. If this sounds interesting to you please contact me, references upon request. I'm retired, so I'm available for 24/7 pet care in your home, so your pets dont spend too much time alone. I will give constant attention as needed, to make sure they know they are special. I believe in keeping with your pet's routines, from waking up, playtime, feeding, and to bedtime. I also believe its easier for pet to get used to a new person instead of a new environment.

“Breanna was Fantastic!!! We went on a one week vacation, and she sent us pictures daily of our small Chihuahua, and updates on not only how he was a joy to keep for us but how he was enjoying her being there. The photos that she sent really put us at ease because this was the first trip without him with us!!! I would proudly recommend her with a great review, and to my fellow fur owners?”

About: I’m a college student and a big dog lover. I’ve always enjoyed being around animals and taking care of them, whether it’s going on walks, playing, or just keeping them company. I’ve worked in jobs where I had to be responsible and stay calm under pressure, so I’m someone you can trust to handle different situations and follow instructions. I’m patient and pretty good at reading behavior, so I’m comfortable with dogs that are energetic, shy, or need a little extra time to warm up. I’ll treat your dog like my own and make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and getting the attention they need. I’m also easy to communicate with and will keep you updated while you’re away. I am available for walks and sitting most days throughout the week. Inquire with me about my schedule! Willing to be flexible and work around the client’s needs! I care for pets in the client’s home and stick closely to their normal routine. I follow all instructions for feeding, walks, and care, and make sure the pet feels safe and comfortable. I also keep the home clean, respect the space, and provide updates so owners feel at ease while they’re away.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities throughout my life. Growing up, I always had a dog in the house, which helped me develop a strong love and understanding of animals from an early age. Friends, family members, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and stay overnight with their pets while they’re away. I genuinely love animals and enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ve been asked back multiple times by the families I’ve helped, which reflects the trust and reliability I bring to every pet I care for. Pet care fits well into my daily routine. I currently work part-time cleaning homes and typically finish my workday and return home around 2:00 PM. This gives me plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and overnight care. I am hoping to make pet sitting a larger priority in my schedule and am committed to providing reliable, attentive care for every pet I work with. I make sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while their owners are away. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I treat every fur baby with the same love, attention, and care that I would give my own. I have a friendly pet who can provide companionship if your pet enjoys being around other animals. I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and preferences, and I am happy to accommodate specific requests to help them feel comfortable and safe. From feeding schedules and medication administration to extra playtime, walks, or special sleeping arrangements, I strive to provide personalized care that keeps both pets and owners happy.

I always use client provided leashes and harnesses. I have good leash training skills as well. I follow timely feeding and treating schedules as defined by the pet parents. I customize pet care base on the family's needs.
