Personalized care for your dog or cat - MacArthur

“Amber is a good person. She was flexible for pick up and drop off. Amber was in touch with us at all times, and it was very nice of her to sent us pictures and videos of our doggie. She followed our requests which were very important to us and our pet. We would definitely recommend her as a dog sitter.”

“Was relieved to be able to leave our precious pup with Joi for the night. She is both competent and compassionate. He can be a handful with separation anxiety. She gave Buddy quality time and sent photos which made it easy not to worry about him. She was also extra helpful working with our schedule. We'd love to have her care for him again if she can tolerate our Big Baby. : )”

“We left our Yorkie in Sabrina's care for just short of a week. I got daily updates and was so pleased with the care Frankie received. He was happy and well cared for. I will definitely book with her in the future!”

Ashley M.

About: I’ve taken care of cats & kittens and dogs with their puppies for family, friends and workmates. They’ve snuggled on my lap and slept in my bed and their comfort and routine are my priority. I’m currently working from home so I would be with your pet continuously. Boarding could be any day of the week including weekends….and holidays too. I have a fenced yard and large porch where your pet will be comfortable…although your pet would never be outside alone. I start my day when they do and I’m near a state park where walks are wonderful.

“Lovely experience with Emily. You could tell she has experience with animals. Very communicative and enjoyed receiving pics while away from my kitty. I am confident to leave my furry friend with her again as she was very attentive and sweet with my kitty.”

About: I love animals. All animals. I’ve had pets since I was a baby. I have 3 dogs and a Persian cat. I’ve always wanted to work with pets and this seems great. I will love and care for your pet like they were my own and you will never have to worry about them. I know your pets are your family and I will care for and love them. They will be at home in my home. You can work and enjoy your day or vacation without having to worry about your pets. I can watch your pets almost any time. I’m home almost all the time. If there is an appointment or anything that has to be done I will let you know ahead of time. I live in a rural area. Surrounded by the woods and not near a road. Only have 1 neighbor that is close and it’s family. Plenty of room to run and play.

“Dependable, great communication and a good dog vibe. She followed instructions and the dogs were well cared for. We would love to use her services again in the future!”

“Love having Jessica pet sit for my fur babies! Super communicative, sweet, and easy going! It gives me a lot of peace of mind knowing that I have someone reliable to look after my cats when out of town.”

About: I am the proud owner of Siberian Huskies. We spend lots of time outdoors hiking and playing in creeks/rivers. My furkids love play dates and we schedule as many as possible. I love to be outdoors enjoying the beauty of the area in which I reside. I have a fully enclosed chain-link fenced in yard at my home, but we still walk 3-6 miles every day. I will enjoy walking with your pets as well and will strive to make sure that the time you are away will be as enjoyable as possible.

“Emily is very nice and reliable! She took excellent care of Juniper and our home and sent lots of updates. I highly recommend her for house sitting with pets!”

“Lucy was tuckered out at the end of the day! Full day of running around and socializing with other dogs. She is one happy pup!”

Samantha S.

“I highly recommend Lauren as a pet sitter. She went above and beyond in her care for our 1 year old border collie. It turns out, Bertie was fearful that his parents were not coming back. Lauren addressed these fears in soothing and gentle ways. She sent frequent updates and photos and we always knew he was receiving the best care. Thank you, Lauren!”

Sara W.

“Great communication and no issues. Emily took care of our dog for the day while we rafted in the area. d communicator and highly recommend if you are in the area.”

Robert P.

“Christa was incredibly friendly, patient, and accommodating. Our pup is very shy around new people and she took the time to let him get used to her and the environment. She communicated frequently and promptly through the app. We had some unexpected schedule changes and she was very flexible in allowing us to adjust our drop off and pick up times.”

Spring T.

“Jodi was great - timely in meeting at our predetermined location, flexible with times, friendly/personable, and forgiving of my dog’s elderly foibles (like sometimes peeing inside). I would certainly have her sit again in the future.”

About: I’ve had animals growing up my whole life. I was raised around dogs and cats. I currently have 3 cats of my own and help my parents with their 14 year old dog. I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13. I promise to care for your animal like it were my own! I’m a school teacher on break so my schedule is very open, currently. Feel free to reach out and see how I can help you! I’m very attentive to my animals needs. I clean up the cats litter box at least once a day and give them all the cuddles they want. When I’m watching my parents or friend’s animals I make sure to give the puppers walks every two hours and all the attention they need.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember and have been dog sitting for friends and family for most of it. I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s individual personality (and all their weird little quirks!). I also have quite a bit of hands-on experience beyond my own pets. From 2013–2015, I worked at the Humane Animal Welfare Society (HAWS), where I helped provide formal dog training classes and gained experience with dog behavior and positive training techniques. Over the past five years, I’ve also fostered dogs through New River Animal Rescue — everything from puppies to sweet seniors and dogs with very different personalities and needs. I currently have a 6-year-old rescue mutt of my own, and I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care. I’m comfortable with puppies, seniors, reinforcing training and routines, or giving a more timid pup some extra patience. Mostly, I just want every dog I care for to feel safe, loved, and at home while their person is away. ❤️ I work from home, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine and I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, potty breaks and company throughout the day. I work from home, which means dogs in my care get plenty of supervision, attention and outdoor breaks throughout the day. I’m also happy to follow whatever routines, feeding schedules, crate routines or house rules your dog is used to. When caring for pets in their own home, I try to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away.
