“Sarah did a wonderful job for the week we were gone! Our dog was still recovering from surgery and not able to walk much. She was quite literally a lifesaver and helped to get Lucy walking again! Highly recommended ❤️”

“Kyelene got a 5 star rating from our household! The girls, (2 dogs and a cat) were in very good hands. After meeting Kyelene, I knew our dogs would be in very good hands. We got pictures sent to us which was nice. The house was as clean as I left it which I appreciated. I would highly recommend Kyelene for your houesitting/dogsitting needs.”

“Misty took such phenomenal care of our pets! She sent regular updates and pics that showed the pets both happy and being themselves, and she spent lots of time with them every day. When we arrived home, both our pets were calm, well fed, and happy. I could tell that she had done a great job not just meeting all their needs but also giving them affection and helping them feel safe while we were traveling. So thankful that we were able to leave our pets in such good hands!”

About: I grew up with dogs and cats in our household and helped take care of them, feeding them and helping keep their space clean. I’ve also had my dog since she was 6 weeks and she lived to be 14 with a heart murmur. I trimmed her nails, gave her haircuts and bathed her. I also helped tend to her special diet and needs in her later years. I work part time and usually have some time each day for pet care, including any special care. I just like to know a couple days in advance so that I can be sure to manage my time wisely. I can walk dogs around my neighborhood or take them to a park nearby. There are several to choose from. I have a spacious living area with a backyard. I am good at paying attention to detail to be sure your pet will be best taken care of.

About: I have experienced caring for kittens, cats, and senior cats and I really enjoy getting to know each cats personality and what makes him feel the most comfortable. I’ve also cared for dogs ranging from six months to 13 years old and I am comfortable with both energetic puppies and older dogs who need a slower pace. I love spending time with animals and all the ways whether it’s plain cuddling or taking dogs on walks. I am a very active person and genuinely enjoy when dogs can come along with me and be a part of my day. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, cared for and happy while their owners are away. I currently work full-time managing a cycle studio. My 40 hours a week are spread across seven days. I normally am in office for 4 to 5 hours a day and work from home on Fridays and Sundays. I am able to take early morning, after noon, and evening walks. With my work schedule I can spend a good amount of time in the home making sure that all animals feel comfortable. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I have cared for dogs with fenced yards and without, so I understand the importance of being alert and safety conscious during walks and outdoor time. I respect each pet’s routine and personality, whether they are energetic and playful or prefer a calm environment and extra cuddles. My goal is to create a trusting, low stress environment where pets feel happy and owners feel confident leaving them in my care.

“Absolutely phenomenal!!! This was my husband and my first time having a dog/house sitter. We met Ingrid months before we booked her. Our 3 dogs were 100% at ease with her from the start. Ingrid put me at ease from the start as well. As any dog mom I was nervous about leaving my babies, not because of Ingrid. But because we never leave our babies. This was our first vacation since 2019. I could not recommend Ingrid more!!! She makes you feel like you're leaving your babies and home with friends or family. Ingrid was the perfect choice for us and we will definitely choose her again. Thank you Ingrid!”

“Samantha took great care of my pups! She provided lots of pictures and took them on many walks! My dogs always enough any time Samantha takes care of them! This is my second time booking with her and it won’t be my last!”

About: I spent all day at home to take care my cat. Feed, wash their hair every week, and some time take them go outside to hangout I'm a student. I have a plenty of time to play with cat. I go to school from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM. Sometime I learn at home I have a friendly cat at my home. She is very friendly and maybe shy a litte bit. I can stop by at your home to take care of your pets.

About: I have taken care of animals my entire life! I love being around dogs and giving them the best life they deserve! I will go above and beyond taking care of your furry friends! Per care would fit perfectly into my late afternoon, going into the evenings. I am a teacher and so summer is fast approaching, opening up my schedule to a full day! I keep a safe, clean, and pet friendly environment at all times. I make sure pets have fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention while following any feeding schedules or care instructions left by the owner. I also monitor pets closely during walks and interactions to ensure their safety, comfort, and well-being in the clients home.

“My dog and cat were so calm when I returned from a week's vacation, and that is due to Kelli's good care! My pets love their routine and lots of attention, and Kelli provided what they needed! She left my home in tip-top shape, too! I will definitely ask here here again!”

About: I've been a volunteer at Caring Hands Humane Society for 4+ years, and in January of 2022 I raised a litter of 6 Pomsky puppies! I have a 4+ year old orange Siberian Husky, and I've grown up with a couple family dogs, so I've always been around animals and want to pursue an animal related career! I'm currently working a part time job, and I would love to take your dog for a walk, play with them, or simply keep them company while you're away! I'm available 9am - 9pm Mon, Wed, Thu, but am somewhat flexible on weekends for house sitting. I have a fenced backyard and 2 energetic Siberian Huskies that are very friendly and play well with new dogs; I take them to the Newton dog park often and they absolutely love it! I can provide a crate for a medium - large dog if needed/requested. My dog sleeps in my room with an open crate so she can sleep in her crate or just on the floor. I have plenty chew toys, everything from tennis balls to rope toys to an assortment of squeakers!

“Ellen does such a great job taking care of our pets! This is the second time she has watched our dog and even though he is so anxiety ridden and sometimes more high maintenance, I know he’s in such great hands. Our house is well taken care of as well. It’s awesome to know that when we leave everything is well taken care of.”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals for over 10 years now! I’ve taken care of both Dogs and cats of all sizes! I’ve been dog sitting for years and I have been working at Sydney’s pet resort as a supervisor for 4 years now! I have experience giving all animals medication and will help animals with any medical issues they may have! I have experience working with puppies and senior dogs, as well as kittens and senior cats! I currently work Tuesday through Saturdays but I will work around my schedule to make sure I find time to care for your pets! I am typically free all day on Sundays and Mondays! I am currently not watching any animals in my own home but I am able to watch them in the comfort of their own home!

About: I’ve worked at a doggy daycare and volunteered at the humane society- I have also had dogs and cats for 17 years of my life! Currently, I have purposely left my schedule completely open for pet care during the week. I am available day or night, 7 days a week. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog in my home. I am very good at reading dog body language and knowing their limits while caring for them.

About: I have had experience with every age of both dogs and cats from newborn to senior. I've bottle fed puppies and kittens, potty trained them, adopted them out, kept some, raised them through their adult life, and cared for them as seniors. I've also taken in many strays and fosters and nursed them back to health, whether it was some scratches or they just weren't doing good, and found good homes for them. I know how to bottle feed, ween, potty train, groom, give medication, clean/sanitize injuries, and much more. I also volunteer in humane societies so that has given me advice and techniques for helping earn animals trust, especially when they are being boarded in an unknown house. I work from home so I am almost always there, unless I have to run to the store or do some quick errands. If I happen to visit friends or family, go to a sit down restraunt, or do anything else that might take longer, it will never be for more than 2-3 hours. I do not kennel unless necessary or if requested (during feedings, if I have to run somewhere, in emergencies, ect.), so they will have free reign otherwise. If they have a feeding schedule, great, if not, I'll make sure the bowls always full. Fresh water is always available in multiple locations. I don't have a fence so dogs will always be leashed going outside and will be taken whenever they want to or every couple hours. Cats litter boxes are spot cleaned once a day, and switched once a week or when needed if they will be staying for longer. My golden rule is treat others how you want to be treated, and that extends to animals aswell. I don't yell, ignore, or force anything to do something that isn't necessary. Obviously no one wants to take medication, but if they have to, I'll be as quick and careful giving it as I can.

“My dogs seem to really love Courtney. They are relaxed and happy when I get home. Highly recommended!”

“Lilly was amazing when we had her stay over to watch our two pups. Look forward to having her watch them again!”
