House Sitting in State Road

“We had another amazing experience with Danielle! Her communication, timeliness, and service exceeded our expectations once again. We will continue to use her services in the future. Huge thanks to Danielle for taking care of our puppy and for making our lives less stressful. 😊”

“Alex was amazing! Kind, considerate and thoughtful he’s the only sitter we’ve had were our dog actively engaged multiple times! We would definitely book him again!”

“Jeff did a terrific job of taking care of our pups. He stayed in our cottage, while watching our dogs (no small feat as they are Great Pyrenees - a 1 and a 2 year old) . Not everyone is up to the task of handling these gentle giants, so kudos to Jeff. He communicated with us daily with pics or a video. He also kept an eye out for deliveries to the residence. We will definitely book with Jeff again.”

About: **Please note I am disabled and hard of hearing. I will always prefer texts over phone calls. **Check out what your babies get up to and the pictures/videos I didn’t end up sending on our Facebook or Instagram page, Zig Zag Wag pet care! I have experience with a variety of animals, including dogs and cats, horses and livestock, rodents and reptiles, and everything from basic grooming including nail trims and baths to basic behavior training. (See safety section for further details) I have experience with basic first aid. I have pretty much free and short notice availability, thought I limit bookings on WEDNESDAYS and SUNDAYS as my days off. I have a whole zoo worth of pets and need to stop by my own house throughout the day, so any house sitting will be based on regular visits. I have reliable transportation and excellent driving skills in case of needing to transport. My vehicle has a crash tested seat belt and I have a few crash tested harnesses if you do not have one, though providing your own sized for your dog is preferred. I will not provide transport for animals other than cats or dogs and cats and small dogs must be tolerant of being crated for the ride. I am great at working with your schedule with at least 2 hours notice, but Rover does not allow easy schedule changes. If you need to reduce your visits, CANCEL the booking and REBOOK with your new dates, as once Rover confirms your booking it won’t let you reduce the current rate. In your home, I offer basic cleaning services and can ensure any messes get cleaned. I can meet many varied needs and am meticulous with following your house rules for your pets. I do not offer boarding or allow client pets at my home. I will not provide food or other consumables, though I will confirm what treats your pets can have because all good pets deserve treats. I provide basic behavior assistance such as teaching your dog that jumping on people is inappropriate, basic tricks (sit, down, paw), leash manners, but I DO NOT OFFER PAID TRAINING. I am not a certified trainer in any capacity, though I have trained many of my own animals (including rats and cats!)

“Such a caring individual, very selfless gives her own dogs the best care. Her dogs are her kids so she understands how important pets are to animal lovers for she is one as well! They would be in the best hands! 10/10 would give her the opportunity!”

“Beau is very good with animals, they all love him. He in return shows them alot of love and affection. Play time is his thing also. Responsible and caring, he will take good care of your pet.”

“Keeley was the first friend of my sons that came to my mind to dog sit my fur babies when I went on vacation! She is a fur mama herself and loves animals ! I love my dogs like children and would never leave them with anyone who wouldn’t treat them the same as I do ! They immediately bonded with her and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing they were safe and sound in her care ! I would recommend Keeley to anyone!”

About: Hello all! If you need someone to help with your pets, I’d be happy to assist. Walking, check ins or anything else you might need.

Special care request will be provided as needed. It is important to send me a description of your pets needs and personality before meeting.

“CJ is friendly, knowledgeable and respectful. She took great care of our dog for a few days and provided daily updates with pictures. Our home was left virtually untouched - CJ was super clean and responsible. We recommend her to anyone needing a sitter and we won't hesitate to book CJ again!”

About: My love for pets is what sparked me to enter the wonderful world of pet sitting. I have been a dog sitter and have been boarding dogs for 3+ years. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your "fur baby". I grew up with a household of furry friends! I currently work from home so I am able to dedicate quality time for the care of your pet. I am available Mon-Friday as well as weekends. I have an electric fence for my pup but when I pet sit, no pup goes out without supervision and on a leash. I allow pets to be comfortable in my home too but if you need them crated, I can accommodate that too.

“Jaszmyn is really good at taking care of our dog, Harlow. She takes him for walks, baths him, and tends to all of his daily needs. She even teaches him tricks to do and she is very good and patient with him as she is with all animals. Jaszmyn would be a great pet caregiver because she would treat each pet as her own and provide the necessary care that any type of pet will need.”

“Suzanne was a loving, caring and joyful person who took great care of our dog while housesitting. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone in need, and we will certainly be a repeat customer of hers. Thank you, Suzanne!”

“Paige is an absolutely wonderful dog sitter! We have 2 dogs, a kitty, and three chickens and she has been so loving and accommodating to all of them. She has done stop by feedings for us and has stayed at our house for a long weekend. She was clean and is totally trustworthy in every aspect. We highly recommend having her watch your fur or feathered babies 😊”

“Sara was great with my mini doodle who has tons of energy! She sent me pictures of them playing ball on the beach and then cuddling up at night each day. I felt so good knowing that she was home with him when we were in another country. I would defiantly hire Sara again!”

“Heather and Richard are awesome pet sitters and walkers. Their love of animals is evident in the way they make our little Lynkoln feel at home and loves. And Lynkoln loves them a lot. I highly recommend them for your pet sitting and walking needs.”

About: As an avid animal lover I understand the importance of finding someone trustworthy and attentive to look after your furry family member. I assure you that I prioritize the well-being and happiness of pets under my care above all else. I am dedicated to ensuring your pet feels loved and comfortable in my care. Pet care has been a lifelong passion for me, but I officially began my journey as a pet sitter in 2020. My experience spans a wide range of breed sizes and ages, including extra large breeds like Cane Corsos and Great Pyrenees’, as well as caring for senior dogs and puppies. Additionally, I've had the privilege of house-sitting for pets on a full-time basis for consecutive months while their owners traveled. I'm more than happy to arrange a meet and greet at your convenience. With my flexible schedule and reliable transportation, I'm well-equipped to accommodate your needs! Since I don’t have any pets of my own, yours are always my main focus and I can be very flexible to your needs. I just moved to the area, so I’m filling my time with short term or one time clients while looking for the right long term families. Im great at following precise instructions, including feeding schedules, medication, and exercise routines to ensure your pet doesn’t fall off their schedule if they have one.

“Bridgette is more then willing to go above and beyond to accommodate different situations. She is very professional in her duties that have been agreed upon. Is very attentive to my pets needs, and shows a lot of caring in doing so. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is in need of loving and highly skilled care for their pet.”

“Victoria has been a responsible pet owner for ten plus years. She is responsible, loving and easily follows instructions. When we have left the animals for a weekend she has always taken care of them and it is like we hadn't even left. I highly recommend Victoria to pet sit your animals.”

“Destiny did a good job watching my 2 doggies. A yorkie and pit bull mix. She offered to have an early meet and greet which helped them recognize her when she came to stay. House was neat and clean when I came home. I did have to reach out for my updates but not a big deal.”

“Carly C is the perfect person for you to choose to take care of your dog or dogs. She is very responsible and loves dogs ,all types. Carly currently has 2 dogs and has fostered so many more through the years ,in fact both of her dogs were earlier fosters of hers. She has taught me so much about these 4 legged loved ones and how to care for them that I just know she will take care of yours as if they were her own.”
