House Sitting in West Point

“Emmie, my corgi girl, immediately took to Linda rolling over for belly rubs. I received updates and cute photos throughout the stay so I never worried. Came home to very happy pets! Booking my next weekend now.”

“Amanda did a fabulous job staying with our dog and cat! Both were very well loved and cared for. I knew from our meet and greet that they would be in great hands. Both took to her immediately. I highly recommend Amanda and will definitely ask her to pet sit for us again.”

“Patricia did an excellent job taking care of my pets and my home. We used her for a family trip out of the country. She even cleaned up the house and washed the sheets she used. She went above and beyond and we are so grateful. We will definitely use her services in the future if she would like to. I highly recommend her if you need a kind, caring, and loving pet sitter. :)”

“Caitlin helped us out last minute and was extremely accommodating to our senior dog with anxiety. She shared pictures and her response times were great. We will definitely use her again in the future!”

“Lily and Philip were amazing. From the moment we met for the “meet and greet” to their last day taking care of my fur baby, I knew that my dog was in good hands. I especially loved the daily updates with pictures!!!”

About: Hello! My name is Alyssa and I am a 20 year old college student remotely studying Psychology and Criminal Justice. I’ve had dogs and a cat since I was young and was always held accountable to take care of them! I took a Veterinary Science class in High School and dealt with animals on a daily during this course (Bunnies and Puppies.) I have recently owned hamsters and fish as well that were 100% my responsibility. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and have 4 years of paid experience with pet sitting for neighbors. Animals deserve the world and I love to make a difference in their lives even if they don’t understand it :) I am also willing to negotiate pricing based off your animals energy/need for attention/etc. Please reach out to me with any additional questions and I’d be happy to answer! I am currently a college student who is taking online courses to work on getting my degree. Other than daily assignments, I have no other daily commitments and will be available 90% of the time, other than my planned unavailability on my calendar! I have a large front and back yard with plenty of room to play. I do have an indoor/outdoor cat but she keeps to herself and is never a bother. I could easily keep her separated from your pet. If in your home, I will be sure to take all the steps you request and go above and beyond to ensure you and your animals are comfortable.

About: Many members of my family have had dogs, cats, and various other types of pets for my entire life. In my own home, my parents began giving me pet care tasks to help me practice caring for animals when I was pretty young. These skills have developed significantly over the years. I am a loving and caring person and have always had a playful side. This being said, I am still able to handle stressful situations with a firm but compassionate hand. This gives me a distinct advantage when it comes to pet care. Currently I work two jobs, one full-time and one part-time. The full time job have regular hours M-F, 8am to 4pm. I would be able to do drop in visits both before work starts and after it ends. I usually work my part time job on weekends in the late morning- early afternoon. They are very flexible and as long as I get enough notice, I will be able to schedule visits then as well. I feed my cat on a regular schedule so I am able to do the same with your pet. I am also able and willing to play, bathe, or just hang out with your pets. Unfortunately I would not be able to have your pets in my apartment, as my complex does not allow unauthorized animals but I am more than willing to come to you!

“Haley was the PERFECT house sitter. She took wonderful care of our two insanely hyper dogs. We received pictures of her snuggling with them and getting so much love. I will 100% ask Haley to stay with our pups in the future!”

“Absolutely fantastic and reliable. Michael is reliable and loving. We can finally enjoy vacation knowing our cat is completely taken care of.”

About: Not much that sets me apart besides the fact that I have ADHD which means I hyper focus on things and will just hyper focus on the things that your pet needs/wants. And since I am able to do that with the combination of my experience with my own pets your pets will love to stay with me. I do work full time so we will have to work around that. I can come see your furry friend every day after work and any time on the weekends. I am pretty free around those times. I will take care of your pet as if they were my own. And make sure I understand and give them the best experience even though they are going to be meeting a stranger for the first time.

“Cady was an INCREDIBLE sitter for us. She went above and beyond to help us with our kitties when we were going through a tough time. I could not recommend her enough. If you have the opportunity to book with her, I would 1000% recommend you do so :)”

Shreya B.

“Victoria is a repeat sitter for us this time however she watched all three of our dogs. They are finicky when interacting with each other and she did everything to make it a smooth weekend for them. I appreciate all the updates, care and compassion she gives the dogs.”

Rachel A.

“Kasey did an amazing job watching out our dogs when our original sitter bailed last minute. Kasey is very personable even though he was a complete stranger my husband and I felt as if we had known him for years. He treated our dogs as if they were his own, we would definitely use Kasey again. He definitely went above and beyond not just watching our dogs but taking care of our home as well ( taking out the trash, watering plants etc).”

About: I have been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have been pet sitting for over 2 years! As a child, I helped feed, bathe, clean up after and play with puppies my entire childhood. My love for dogs and animals grew with me and I began volunteering at animal shelters at 14 and working at dog care facilities at 16. I have been working in the pet care industry for 6 years and have been trained on dog behavior, handling and nutrition. I worked for a year as a veterinary assistant before moving to VA, and am looking forward to attending veterinary school this fall. I am experienced with dogs of all ages and understand the importance of training regimes for younger pups. I am also very familiar with senior care, including physical assistance and medication administration. I have also done personal pet sitting for as many as 6 dogs in one household and have references if needed! I value honesty, communication and transparency with pet parents. Please reach out if you would like to learn more! Currently, my day-to-day schedule is constantly changing between pet sitting and classes on certain weekdays. I have been extremely successful in working around others’ schedules with my own, message me to check if I’m able to work with your timeframe! I am experienced and knowledgeable on dog handling and focus on dog safety and comfort. All dogs being walked outside of their home must have a harness or gentle leader, I will not walk dogs with just a collar unless they are unable to wear a harness or gentle leader due to age or health and understand that this is a possibility for many dogs. I make sure a dog feels comfortable and safe with me both in their home and before going out for a walk to guarantee the best safety for both of us. I will not take a dog off-leash outside of their home unless we are in a fully fenced in area the dog cannot escape from. All dogs being walked by me must be familiar with being leash-walked and cannot be leash aggressive. Currently open every day, I just require a 2-3 day heads up! Hours of service include 7am-8pm weekly. House sitting visits include 24 hour care. I do not let dogs off-leash in non-fenced in areas or in spaces with dogs unfamiliar to yours. I require all dogs and cats to be updated on their rabies vaccines. I will not take an unaltered dog outside of his or her home, this is for the safety and wellbeing of your dog. If your dog struggles with behavioral issues and has a history of aggression, please include this in your message so I can help you decide the best options for your pet when it comes to meeting a new pet sitter. If your dog struggles with severe anxiety (this is very common!) please include some of the best anxiety-reducing practices for your dog (ex. favorite blanket, hiding spots, calming treats / jackets) in their care instructions so that they can have the best time possible without their favorite human.

“Nicole was excellent! Both of my cats LOVED her. Mimi was feral and normally won’t come out of hiding for most people, but Nicole had her playing and snuggling !! She sent pics and/or videos every day and made me feel completely safe and comfortable that she was watching my home and cats. I’d give 10 stars if I could! Thanks Nicole!!”

About: Hi, we’re Teona and Louie! We love taking care of dogs and have two gentle pups of our own. If you have any questions, feel free to message us—we want you to feel comfortable while your babies are with us. We even have outdoor cameras to monitor playtime and often send updates to parents so you can see how much fun they’re having! I’m home most of the time, except for quick grocery trips. I’ll be available to give your dog plenty of attention and care throughout the day. We keep your pups active during the day so they’re ready to settle in at night. Dogs usually sleep in their room with their own bed or blanket (if provided), which keeps them safe and cozy. We have a separate room to ensure they’re comfortable and relaxed. Feel free to message us with any questions—we’d love to make sure both you and your pup feel at ease!

“Tracy is awesome! Our babies love having her stay with them! She loves on them and treats them the way we do. Thank you for being amazing and so helpful. Will definitely work with her again.”

Stephanie P.

About: I have experience with all animal types including dogs, cats, horses, livestock, birds, pocket pets and some reptiles. I am a licensed vet tech so I am also comfortable medicating animals that need it. I have 7 dogs, 6 cats, a leopard gecko and several chickens, all of which are friendly with other animals. I will only accept animals into my home to be boarded that are dog-friendly. I will treat your pets as if they are my own no matter if they are being boarded or just going for a walk. I do work full time but I am able to make drop in visits around my work schedule. Please feel free to ask any questions regarding your pets and their needs while you are working, vacationing, etc. I can care for pets early before work, mid-day and late after work. On weekends my schedule can be more flexible depending on what activities I have going on. Any dogs that come into my home will be treated as if they were my own. I have a fenced backyard for the dogs to play in. Boarding dogs will have their own room to hang out in.
