House Sitting Thornburg

About: I treat every pet like family and tailor my care to their unique needs. Whether it’s patiently helping a puppy learn routines, giving extra love and support to senior pets, or just making sure your furry friend feels safe and happy while you're away—I’m here for it all. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, including senior pets who need gentler care and dogs who require medication. I’m also comfortable with basic training and reinforcing good habits for puppies. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. I take the time to understand their personality, routines, and quirks, so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. Pet care is a meaningful part of my daily life, and I’ve structured my routine to make sure your pet gets the attention they deserve. I work full-time during the week, but I’m fortunate to live close to my job, which allows me to come home on my lunch break for walks, potty breaks, or a little mid-day playtime. My weekends are completely free, giving me plenty of time for longer visits, overnights, or extended care. Whether it’s weekday check-ins or weekend companionship, I’m committed to keeping your pet happy, safe, and loved. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, I focus on providing a safe, loving, and low-stress environment tailored to each pet’s individual needs. In Your Home: I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible—mealtimes, walks, play, medications, and anything else that helps them feel comfortable and cared for. I treat your home with respect and keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. In My Home: I offer a quiet, pet-friendly space with plenty of attention, affection, and time outdoors (for dogs). I do have one friendly cat who is both indoor and outdoor, so I always ensure any visiting pets are comfortable and safely introduced, if needed. I also limit the number of pets I care for at a time to ensure each one gets plenty of individual attention. No matter the setting, your pet’s well-being and happiness are my top priorities.

“Joeli was excellent! She was very attentive and loving to Dallas and even took him on a walk around the neighborhood—which he absolutely loved! Will definitely book her again! 🥰”

“Judy was a wonderful person and was awesome with my Great Dane Holly Belle. My dog was cared for and Holly didn’t want her to leave! She stayed overnight and I would recommend her to anyone.”

Malissa B.

“Sydney and her roommate Kirsten did an amazing job watching our pup and cats while we were away for the weekend! They were available on short notice. They sent daily photos and updates which kept us at ease while we were away from our pup! I would definitely recommend both Sydney and Kirsten to anyone looking for a sitter! We will definitely reach out again to watch our pets!”

Jennifer H.

“Morgan watched our 3 pups in our home for a week. She is awesome. The pups love her and she made it possible to have a very relaxing vacation knowing the puppies were safe and happy at home. She is great at communicating and it’s always there when she said she would be. She sent lots of pictures of the pups and we look forward to having her watch the pups the next time we go out of town.”

Nick M.

“Rochelle absolutely exceeded all my expectations. I received so many lovely updates while I was away, and she communicated with me about everything. This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit uncertain, but it was such a wonderful experience. We will most definitely be working with Rochelle again, and I would recommend her to anyone!”

Beth S.

“Madison was incredibly attentive and loving, perfectly balancing the chaotic needs of our high-energy puppy while showing patience and care to our elderly, slower dog. We received the sweetest updates while away that made our vacation stress free knowing they were taken care of. We will absolutely be booking her again!”
