House Sitting in Waterford

About: I have had dogs my entire life and developed a genuine love for animals from an early age. I have sat and taken care of friends’ and families' pets over the years. While in high school my mother and I fostered dogs while they waited to be adopted. In addition, I spent 2.5 years working at a locally owned pet store, where I gained hands-on experience with pet care, behavior, and nutrition. I am widely available during the week besides scheduled appointments, errands, and housework. I have reliable transportation and keep an organized schedule so there is no overlap. Each animal should feel safe in their home while their owner is away, so I work calmly and patiently to earn their trust through my actions. Your dog should know I am there for their well-being, including all the good things like snuggling, playing, and tail wags. I treat each client's home with the kindness and respect I would want in return if the roles were reversed. I follow all instructions and information provided to the best of my ability, and your dog will receive plenty of love in the process.

About: I have over 11 years of experience caring for cats through both personal ownership and cat sitting for clients, friends, and family. Over the last 2 years, I’ve also gained experience caring for dogs through pet sitting for friends and family members. My experience includes feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box cleaning, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I truly enjoy being around animals and understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always do my best to provide dependable, patient, and attentive care. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, playful, or needs extra comfort, I want owners to feel confident knowing their pets are in good hands with me. Currently working full time Monday through Friday. I clock in at 7:30am & finish between 2:30-3:30pm depending on the week. If you’d like my services anywhere between those times, I’d just need 5 days to a week’s notice prior to booking. Always free Saturday & Sundays. I make sure to ask numerous questions during meet & greets, that way I follow all care instructions exactly! I keep the environment clean, and make sure doors and windows are secured at all times. I also keep a close eye on every pet in case of any changes in behavior/health and provide regular updates with photos and videos

About: Starting from the age of 10 my family has had many animals. Not only am I used to taking care of my own pets but I have farm sat as well. Being on a farm I became used to dogs of all breeds and sizes, ranging from english mastiffs over 200 pounds to small terriers no more than 20 pounds. Dogs with a wide variety of needs from primarily living outside to dogs that have their own couches in the house! Having my own dogs I am used to taking multiple dogs on walks at once and extremely used to dogs that have a certain way of doing things and want to respect how everyones dogs are because I want people to respect my dogs quirkiness as well. I am currently working full time but I do not work on weekends and have off in the summers. If I am booked I would ensure to fit pet care in as a priority in my routine. As someone who has had dogs almost my whole life I understand the importance of having a reliable person watching after my pet. In your home I would abide by your homes guidelines for the pet. If you would like them to spend time outside I would ensure that they are spending their time outside depending on the weather if that is their preference. My dogs are personally couch potatoes and only go outside if I make them or they have an emergency. I have also watched dogs that I let them outside in the morning and do not let them back in until the evening when it is time to feed them.

“We had Daya watch our 3 French Bulldogs for 4 days at our home, and she was great. The dogs were well cared for. She kept the house clean and followed all instructions. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend Daya to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”

About: I Have a whole lot of love and patience to give when you cant be with your fury companion. I have had dogs for 25 years (lost my longtime ones of 14/16 years old years back) and Because my heart still yearned to wanting to provide that love and quality of life every animal deserves, I turned to dog sitting and rescue/foster. I have a clean home with a fenced in yard. I want your pet to feel comfortable in their surroundings and will cater to the life they typically lead when with you(laying w me, play time ,walks, treat time, med administer, etc). When your fur baby leaves, I want them to leave happy and waiting for their next return. For the most part I only take 1 Dog at a time. I will always have my 4.5 year old Terrier mix Female. She is 11 pounds. (Very love able and low key. She was a “foster fail” who We just couldn’t part with. She fairs well w smaller, low key dogs). I will also consider caring for caged small birds/animals as I have done so for clients. It will be an extra $5-$10 per day. I Always send updates and pics while in my care. I would love to talk w you about your fur baby. Please feel free to reach out. Please also understand the communication process for meet and greets and bookings is imperative.to maintain(within 24 hour responses), or I will offer the inquiry of date to the next person that wishes to proceed immediately. Example: Request booking or meet and greet, I respond I’m available and don’t hear back within 24 hrs w a set date to proceed. I like to be fair to my fur baby customers who truly need me. All my best! I do work outside of the home. During that time your pup will be have everything they need to relax (I play gentle dog relaxing music in the background). My fury house guests just love this so! It’s a calming effect. I have a fenced in yard, always give lots of attention(endless belly rubs), and provide A relaxing, low key environment. I want them to enjoy their time Here.

“Nicole was diligent in caring for our dog and bought him a couple of new toys that he loves! She was cheerful and exhibited a great ability in being able to manage his rambunctious behaviors from the very first day. We appreciated her dependability and punctuality.”

“I needed a sitter with short notice and David was able and willing to come meet my 3 dogs within hours of contacting him. He was kind and gentle with my boys and knew how to approach one of them who is fearful. He listened carefully to my instructions and asked when something wasn’t clear. I felt comfortable leaving my dogs with him when we met the same day he stayed overnight. He stayed longer when we were going to be home later which I appreciated. When we got back, he left a kind note and some chocolates for us. I would hire David again!”

“Alyssa done a wonderful job with our 2 babies. This was the first time getting an over night sitter for 4 nights. We were very nervous doing this but she put our minds at ease immediately when meeting with her. She’s gentle, loving, and caring. She followed all requests as directed. My 2 dogs adjusted quickly to her as she has a gentle personality. I like to Thank her and hope to use her for future sitting. TY”

“Victoria was excellent to our cats. She gave them all the time and attention they needed while we were gone and despite them not generally being warm to strangers she got one of cats to pet her which is huge for a stranger to come in and do.”

James T.

“Kimberly was wonderful with my elderly standard poodle, who requires special diet and meds multiple times a day. Then my cat got sick and she took him the the emergency vet, then had meds for him also! She was kind and loving to my fur boys. I recommend her highly!”

Lisa P.

“Madilyn was wonderful. This was her first time sitting for us. She was very attentive to our dogs’ needs, and even sent me one of the best photos ever of my collie, Ollie! I’m pretty sure she left the house cleaner than when we left for vacation :-). I would highly recommend her and I’d use her again in a heartbeat!”

Caron S.

“Greg and his girlfriend, Hannah, were so wonderful. My flight got delayed and I had to find a sitter to watch my two pups for the same day and they were fast to respond and very accommodating! Greg seemed super knowledgeable and sent me updates and pictures of my dogs! They were respectfully of my home and left it just as they found it! Definitely will book with him again :)”

Maggie C.

“Jessica was wonderful with my dog Emma. Emma is an 11 year old rescue with hip issues. It is often difficult for Emma to climb stairs. Jessica slept downstairs so that Emma would not be alone. Very compassionate. Also Jessica left the house the same way she found it. She was reliable and compassionate. I would recommend Jessica to anyone.”

About: I have had a wide range of experience caring for a variety of pets ever since I was a young child. I have taken care of dogs and cats for over a decade. Your pet will have all the attention and care they need during their time with me or in my home. I work Monday to Friday with weekends off. I am able to care for them before and right after work, with family home during the day as well. I care for pets by feeding them their proper diet, playing with them/making them feel welcome, making sure their bathroom needs are met, and updating the owners.

“Dana was great! She took great care of our dog and was respectful of our home. Loved the photo updates throughout the day. Would definitely book with her again!”
