House Sitting in Stockbridge

About: I’ve had and been around dogs all my life, from free roaming farm dogs to the most spoiled Pomeranians. I’m the guy who has treats and a leash in his car just in case I see a loose dog running around or hear there’s one nearby. I’m the guy who will remember your dog’s name, but probably not yours. I’m the guy pet owners warn that their dog is anxious of people, only to watch their dog sense my immediate love for them. I work as a freelancer, so my availability is mostly wide open outside of some specific appointments and projects that will be noted in my profile. In your home, I will follow any patterns and schedules you request to maintain a consistent experience for your dog. I have three dogs in my home consisting of two puppies and one senior, so I will not be hosting any appointments here at this time.

“Olivia is experienced, kind, and quick to absorb a lot of information (and responsibilities). She helped us out last minute with our hospice elderly dog when we exhausted and needed a break.”

“She did a great job taking care of my French Bulldog. The French Bulldog can be really hard to take care of but she was able to keep him on schedule. Was also alert about him not eating and we were always in contact. I had no worries while I was gone. Thank You!”

“Alex was truly a dream! The BEST Rover experience we have had. Dishes done, house immaculate and most importantly Maisy LOVED her. We hope that she will stay with us for a long time!”

“Jenna did great with all 7 of my animals- including a medically needy dog that needed monitor with food/water intake/and medications. Jenna kept the house clean, helped with extra stuff, as well as dealt with house malfunctions. Will definitely use and recommend Jenna to care for your animal needs.”

“Alisha did a wonderful job taking care of my dogs in my home. She sent me updates and pictures throughout the weekend. I will be sure to use her again.”

“Sarah is the exact person you are looking for to care for your pet while you’re away. They are enthusiastic and ask important questions. They also send updates and photos while you’re away. We will use Sarah to watch our dog whenever we are away and they have availability.”

“Rowan stayed with our blue heeler in our home for 6 days and was great with her. He was very patient and tolerant of her quirky habits. He took her for walks, car rides, played with her a lot and sent me many pictures. Rowan is very dependable and responds quickly to texts and asks questions if necessary. Thanks Rowan! Loved that you gave Terra your full attention while you were here.”

About: I love to walk, so active dogs who also love it are perfect for me! I am adventurous and am up for longer walks. Learning a pets personality means a lot to me, so that I am able to tend to their wants and needs. I am very patient with young, adult, or senior pets. Enrichment is very important to their happiness and I am happy to provide that for them. Although i’m not a professional trainer. I am capable of teaching simple commands and will encourage commands that are taught. I have plenty of time to spare, given I just got back from a month long trip and need some time to settle back in to my daily life. For the next while I will have plenty of availability. What better way to spend my time? I always carry treats on me for play, learning time, or just being the best pup/kitty. In a clients home I am more than repectful of said requirements. I will always make sure your baby gets their meal on time, and always has water. I will always clean up after them. They will never get bored, all of my attention will be focused on them to ensure they are always engaged while you’re gone. My goal is to make you and most importantly your babies happy, because then I am too!

“I have 2 small dogs. I was gone for a long weekend and had her come in 3-4 times a day to let the dogs out, feed them and play with them. Bri was great with the dogs. They liked her from the 1st time she came for a meet and greet. I will defiantly use her again”

About: I have had pets since I was a child. I grew up with mainly German shepherds but also have a dog of my own! I do have basic training skills from observing trainers while I worked at Petco. I work 2 jobs so this is an opportunity for me to unwind and connect with animals in my spare time. My usual work schedule is first shift so I am available after 3pm M-F for anytype of pet care. I live in an apartment with 2 cats and snake. I am willing to take a night out of the week to spend with your pet if need be in your home. They will get lots of play time and love! You can be worry free knowing that your pet will be treated with the same love and care that my pets receive.

“Gabriella did such a great job!! She had a challenge with one of our dogs because he was not happy that we left him and he wasn’t being nice! She kept trying different things and she finally got him to come around and be totally comfortable with her! She sent us many pictures while we were gone and both dogs looked like they were having fun! We will definitely call Gabriella again next time we travel!!”

About: Hello! My name is Emilie and I have been caring for animals my entire life. I received my first dog (a lab) as a birthday gift at 5 years old and loved every minute of it. Since then, our family has gotten two more dogs (one being another lab, the second a small Lhasa Maltese) and two bunnies. I love animals so much I started working at a veterinary clinic. Here I dealt with a large variety of animals, from ferrets to birds, including dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, needs, and temperaments. I am PetTech (PetSaver) certified and trained in CPR, First aid, and care and can provide the certification upon request. I have an extensive background in administering many different medications (as well as oral vaccines). I also have trained several dogs in the past. Many around me know of my passion for animals, thus being how I became known as the neighborhood animal sitter, sitting nearly a half dozen neighborhood pets alone. I have cared for and pet-sat neighborhood animals including dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, and fish for a number of years. I feel like I have a deep connection and understanding with every animal I meet, and I love to make both my and their day spending time together! That is why I am on this app, to spend more time doing what I love- taking care of and playing with your fur baby! I am a business owner, so I welcome and am pretty flexible with drop-in visits requests. I find working with animals to be very rewarding and fulfilling to me. I am looking to set up reoccurring daily and/or weekly pet care. I would love to get to know several animals very well and provide them the topmost quality care on a consistent basis. However, I am also open to short term care situations. For any other requests or questions, Please let me know! If you would like pet care for a time that I am not available on my calendar, please contact me to see what we can do! As of now, I do not offer pet care at my house. However, I would be more than willing to come to you to keep your animal relaxed and comfortable in their own home. When at your home, your animal will receive the most exceptional care and treatment possible. I treat everyone's animal as if they are my own. I also treat your home with respect, ensuring I strictly follow your directions as well as clean up after both myself and your fur baby. If you allow, I would love to spoil your pet with their favorite treats, activities, and mental stimulation/engagement. I enjoy providing picture updates for my clients. Living in Appleton, I can make just about any time work with a notice in advance. In hopes of doing this nearly full time, I would love to fill my week completely with pet sitting Monday-Friday. Having owned pets as well as having worked at a vet clinic, I prioritize keeping a close eye on each critter I watch. I know how important each individal animal's wellbeing is and how quickly that could change. I feel confident that I am always hyper-aware of animals' saftey and keep the closest eye on them and their health, as I know what to watch for.

About: I've grown up with dogs and once I lived on my own, soon adopted 3 cats. I've had several dogs and cats throughout my life, loving them as my children. Every animal I meet melts my heart in their own special way and I fall in love every time. I would be honored to care for your fur [or scale!] baby/ies! I currently work part time at petco in the evenings mostly. I do have my own animals, but find myself always wishing I had more. I have plenty of time and heart to give! I will feed your animal the directed amount in the directed time. I will play with your cat/dog several times throughout the day. For dogs, potty breaks every 2 hours minimum. And as many cuddles and hugs as they want!

“Our dogs enjoyed being with Ben while we were away. Not many people would feel comfort walking our Great Dane or patio enough for our senior Greyhound, but Ben manages both dogs well. Thank you! Lisa and Doug”

Lisa S.

“We are traveling outside the US for the first time ever and needed someone we could trust with our dogs. They are both high drive breeds who are very needy and affectionate! Amanda has been amazing with them and they are still getting the same loving care we give them when we are home. Thank you Amanda for making this trip possible!! We will be booking again when we need you.”

About: I am unable to own any pets of my own and I miss the four legged friends, I adore playing and walking with dogs and look forward to getting to know each pup.❤️ I grew up with a golden doodle, Daisy, and now my parents have a second golden doodle, Piper, which I visit and walk and house sit for regularly. I have training experience and will be able to learn and use the commands for your pups as well. Any behavior specifics and general rules will be followed. Any time I pet sit I always keep the space tidy and cleaner than I found it! I have experience with dogs with food sensitivities, stomach issues, as well as social and separation anxiety. I am able to schedule meets in advance for any socially nervous pups to make sure they are comfortable with me. I work full time, ten hour days, every Tuesday-Friday, so I am available for house sitting, but cannot cater to taking the dogs out middle of the day. I am available to feed or walk and play morning and night every day. I do not have any pets of my own, but I grew up walking and taking care of our family dogs and am excited to meet new doggy friends❤️

“Bailey was very accommodating to my last minute needs, and I really appreciate the time he took with my cats to give them a little extra love!”

About: I have taken care of many animals ranging from dogs-cats-birds and fish. I am trusted and relied upon to take care of neighbors, friends, and family pets. I am a college student studying animal health and medicine. I can work with animals of all walks of life including those with disabilities that are in need of extra care. I am free for you to use when you need a break. I am available all five weekdays, all day long. Depending on your schedule. I will be able to take care of your pet so that you don't have to worry that your pet would be alone for too long. When I take care of client's pets I like to keep the pet at their home so their pets can stay as stressfree as possible. I can keep your pet with their normal routine (like taking your dog on their normal walk and feeding your pet at the time you would if you were home). While the client is gone for an extended amount of time I always like to spend at least one night with their pet to keep them company. I also will stay with their pet when it storms to ensure that their pet isn't alone when they need it most.
