Personalized care for your dog or cat - Blackwater

“Carly is the best! My little fur baby is calm and relaxed when she stays there! She gets to go for walks, play in the backyard, and cuddle! Cici really likes Carly! Carly keeps me updated and sends me pictures every day! I feel so happy and relieved to be able to leave Cici and not worry about her. We totally recommend Carly!”

About: I've been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my mom had as many as six dogs at a time, and I was actively involved in their daily care from a very young age. We also had multiple litters of puppies over the years, giving me hands-on experience with dogs of all ages—from newborn puppies to senior dogs. In addition to dogs, I've cared for cats, rabbits, and hamsters, making me comfortable with a variety of pets and their unique needs. Whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I've spent a lifetime around animals and genuinely enjoy caring for them. Most recently, my two beloved dogs passed away. While I'm not quite ready to bring new pets into my home yet, I miss having animals in my life. Pet sitting felt like the perfect way to continue spending time with pets, providing them with the same love, attention, and care that I gave my own. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you're away. 🐾❤️ I work from home with a flexible job. I am able to take care of your pets on whatever schedule works best for them and you. I have a fenced in yard for your pets to run around in. I also live in a cul-de-sac so it’s a safe neighborhood to walk pets in! I have no other pets living in my home so all my attention can be on your baby or babies!

“Angela was wonderful. I had no worries about leaving Jeb with her during her our vacation. She messaged me with updates and photos. Jeb seemed to have a great time. We will definitely use Angela in the future when we need a sitter.”

About: I am a volunteer firefighter and a full time nanny. I have watched dogs since I was 13 years old and I have had dogs all of my life. I love all kinds of animals. Right now I have 2 dogs a 45 pound husky and a 90 pound American bulldog red boon coon hound mix. I also have three rescue cats and two bunnies one of my bunnies is a rescue bunny. My schedule is very flexible so I can work around the routine you already have set up for your dog. I can also work on house braking your dogs for you. I would like to know if your dog has any behavior problem, what thier normal routine is, what activities they like, what things they are scared of, if they have any health problems, and if they are up to date on shots and flea meds. I work Monday threw Friday 8-5 I’m not normally available during those hours to let animals out. I only work those hours during that time I keep my eyes on them at all times well they are outside and when going in and out the doors. Safety is to priority

About: I have taken care of a variety of animals as big as horses and small as fish. I walk dogs and allow them to have play time, especially high energy dogs, they need it the most. I can cook meals for the animals if needed for a special diet. I reward with treats for good behavior. I don't mind if I need to get down and dirty. I've helped deliver a litter of kittens and nursed a kitten from a few days old. I work 8-2:30 in Persia and have to pick up by son before 3 at Preschool . I have 3 pets of my own. I let my pup out as needed, she lets me know or at minimum every 2 hours unless asleep. I also have a screened in porch for the cats or dogs that love outside time without actually having to go out, I have a fenced in back yard with a 6ft high fencing. I have a fenced in yard that is 6ft tall and I have a furr baby that would love to play and keep yours company. I also have 2 indoor cats but they would more than likely hide till adjusted to a new visitor.

“I was worried about leaving my Maggie with a stranger but as soon as I met Mikayla my worry disapaited. She clearly loves dogs and Maggie loved being there. She came home and slept for hours.”

About: I will provide playtime, exercise, and companionship to your pet in a safe environment. Relax and feel confident that your baby is being treated like family in my home. I offer round the clock care. Someone is always home to rub a belly or take a walk. Hit me up and let's get started. I have a fenced in front and backyard. 24 hours a day comfort care and security. Rest easy knowing your baby is well cared for.

About: I am willling to sit both large and small dogs. I have 3 cats that are friendly with dogs and mostly keep to themselves. If you want your dog walked or taken to the dog park please let me know. I am able to administer mediciation or topical creams if needed as well. I also have a child so any dog I sit will need to be ok with children. She is very good with animals and will not harass or hurt your pet as we maintain boundaries. Let me know what you need and we can work something out. I work from home so will be here all day unless I need to run errands. I am pretty flexible with my schedule if needed. I have a fenced in yard so there is plenty of room to run. When in my home pets are family so they are permitted on the couch and bed.

“Alexa was great! She was super communicative and showed up on time every single day for a month to walk our two dogs while we were settling into a new house. She got them plenty of exercise each day, gave updates on how they did on each walk, adjusted walk lengths based on the weather and how much energy the dogs had each day, and overall was super attentive to each dog’s individual needs. Our boys are missing her already, and we will definitely be using her in the future!”

About: I have always had pets ranging from dogs and cats to chickens and horses, growing up. I live on a farm, so I have a lot of experience with animals. I currently have 2 dogs and 3 cats who I couldn’t live without, and I’d love to meet some new furry friends! I currently only work part-time, so I can be flexible with your schedule in taking care of your animals. I want to work with you in finding the best way to care for your pets, so feel free to reach out on how we can arrange a pet sit. I’m a very clean person, and I would always make sure to clean up and mess that either I or your pets happen to make. I make sure to take gentle care of my animals, and I would apply the same level of care to yours. I make sure to spend plenty of quality time with the animals instead of just doing the bare minimum. Please let me know if there are any special toys or tricks that your animals like the most so we can kick it off with a good time!

About: I've been caring for dogs for over 20 years. In the last 10 years I have been fostering retired racing grey hounds and huskies so I'm ready to give every dog in between the care and attention they deserve. I have regularly watched friends and families animals since I was young. I am excited for every opportunity to get to know new dogs and fall more in love with my regulars! Please let me be your peace of mind the next time you're out of town! I'm currently have a lot of free time on my hands and would love to fill that time with taking care of sweet loveable pets. As with any of my ventures, I put forth 100% of my energy to making sure your pet has a great time while you're away. I guarantee a calm, happy and healthy pet upon your return! I've seen dogs become less anxious when they are staying in their own home, in the neighborhood they know. They know you will eventually return and they dont need the transition time it takes for them to become comfortable in a unfamilar place. For that reason, I do like to promote house sitting as the least stressful method of boarding for nervious pets. Please let me know if you require any plants to watered as id be happy to help you in any other way I can. I prefer to keep my bookings to one dog or one family at a time. This is to ensure I give each dog my full attention to keep them safe and happy while yall are missing eachother! This means that I prefer walking in quiet neighborhoods instead of a park with more distractions so I can get familiar with your dog's responses and they can get familiar with me during our first few walks together. After a few walks, and your permission, we can go to dog parks where we slowly work up to being unleased. I strive for 2 or more walks a day during the summer, 3 or more walks a day during spring, fall, and winter. When we arent walking or playing outside, me and your pets will be chilling inside with 2 or more feedings a day. If you book on a holiday it is likely I will have freeze dried chicken or salmon wet food to give your pet as a special holiday treat! I feel that if its a human holiday, its also a special day for our pets because they're family.
