House Sitting in Whiting

About: Over 16 years training, walking and exercising high energy dogs. I have extensive experience with working dogs, special needs dogs and have certifications in dog obedience and other disciplines. I am licensed as a public school teacher and fully background checked. Contact me for the best care. Boarding and adventure daycare is my speciality. I have limited housesitting and drop in availability. Dog walking and exercising is my full-time job. I want to provide a concierge service that makes it easiest for you to take your time back and be well. Your wellness is key to your dog being well. My joy for this profession started when I couldn't find a trusted sitter and dog walker for my own animal. I decided to provide that service to others so they wouldn't have the same problem. I give love, attention and exercise to your family member as if they were my own. I am a licensed public school educator who is fully background checked with glowing references that can be provided and contacted.

“Thank you Lorrie for being such a caring and dependable sitter for our fur family! Lorrie is incredibly attentive and her photos and videos were comforting as we knew our animals were happy and healthy. We couldn’t recommend Lorrie enough! She’s the best!”

About: There isn't a time in my life when I have not been around dogs. I was a dog walker throughout college and now I am a dog owner myself. I am an active walker in my neighborhood who has experience with multiple breeds and sized dogs. I currently have a 2-year-old Aussie, and we would love to add your pup to the mix for however long you need! I can do weekends and holidays if I am available. There are some great trails for us to walk on around my neighborhood. Alfie (my pup) also plays with every dog that comes over! My schedule changes often so I will try my best to keep my calendar up to date. My house is puppy-proofed since I have a puppy myself. If you have any requests or concerns please just let me know ahead of time!

“Shelby was amazing!! She kept me updated with pictures and walks and took amazing care of my house while I was away! Shelby gave me complete peace of mind knowing my pup was in good hands! I would highly recommend her and would love to have her watch my dog again in the future!”

“Our dogs LOVE Meghan! She took excellent care of them. They played endless Frisbee, went hiking and swimming, and enjoyed the company of her dog Izzy. We came home to happy dogs. Meghan was very respectful of our home and even watered a few plants for us. Thank you Meghan!”

Tracy L.

“Amazing! I am recommending to people who want their dogs well taken care of. Photos are wonderful when away from your pet and Kasey ensures you get regular updates if you like. I came home to them not realizing I was away.”

“Trustworthy and meticulous, Karen spent five days with my two big labs and gave them endless love and attention. Since we have no fence, she had to leash and walk the dogs a lot, and modify for the old limpy dog versus the young bouncy one. She left my house looking beautiful and even did the laundry! I want her back next time I'm going out of town.”

About: I’ve been an animal lover and caretaker my whole life. I have novice vet tech experience and I’m not afraid of the feisty ones, either! I’m working full time but my shift currently runs from 5pm to 1am Tues-Sat, so I am available for walks, play sessions, and pet/house sitting as needed around those hours. Working hours subject to change every few weeks. I like to have fun with my furry friends. I’m not afraid to get down and dirty, or even rough when the zoomies come out.

About: I am the proud dog mom of my sweet Blue Heeler Summit! He is 7 years old so I have plenty of experience taking care of him. I have pet sat multiple times for my friends dogs and cats and love spending time with animals! I am patient, loving and detail oriented. Whatever your needs for your fur babies, I will be happy to accommodate! I work 4 days a week and have availability early morning and evenings on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday & Friday. I have all day availability on Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays. I will be happy to take your pets on walks and play outside. Giving them lots of attention and love will be my goal in hopes the time you are away will go fast for them! I will be sure to always keep them on leash and safe throughout their time with me.

“I am so grateful Elijah was able to care for our dog Louie while my husband and I were out of town for the weekend. He was great at keeping us updated on how things were going, touching base several times a day and sending photos. When we arrived home, Louie seemed calm and relaxed. Our home was left neat and tidy. We look forward to working with Elijah again knowing that we can be at ease leaving Louie in his care.”

“Emily took amazing care of my sweet little pittie! She sent me updates once a day as requested with pictures, and kept her active while I was away. I would definitely book her again and recommend her to friends! Thank you so much Emily ?”

“Bridget kept out two very active dogs happy and the house looked great when we returned. Very happy we found Bridget through Rover.”

About: I've taken care of animals of all kinds since I was very young. I currently own dogs, cats, a guinea pig, and chickens, and if there are others that need attention, I'm happy to drop in with detailed instructions. I'm a mom and elementary school nurse. I am relatively flexible, mostly on weekends, but happy to work out the details for when you need someone to be with your babies. At this time, my services will be mainly checking in and providing care and attention to pets in your home. I am thorough and conscientious.

About: I have experience with cows, horses, dogs, cats, pigs, Guinea pigs, fish, chickens etc from basic feeding and cleaning to much more depending on needs I am currently working part time, and am self employed. I am willing to discuss flexibility to accommodate needs of clients, homes and their pets! I adapt to the needs of my clients and the surrounding. I do like to set up an initial meet so I can ask questions and get familiar to the space, duties and animals.

“Michelle was so kind and personable. I loved that she came to the meet and greet for our housesitting with a pen and notepad! She was a pro at giving our husky his meds, the house was left clean, and she was easy to communicate with while we were gone. Thanks, Michelle!”

About: I grew up on a small farm as a child. From very young, I was responsible for mucking stalls on weekends and feeding our horses and family dog. I've have had my own dog/dogs for the last 13 years and can't imagine a life without them. I am either at home with my daughter or working from home while she is at school, so I have lots of time to walk and care for your dog. I go out, for example, to run errands, but would never be leaving your dog for long. We would love to have your well-behaved dog that is used to a younger child (age 11) while you are away or in the area, and would love and cuddle your dog as our own. We would love to hang out with your dog during the day inside or outside on walks as you felt comfortable. At night, I ask that your dog(s) be amenable to either sleeping in a crate or in a bed without barking. Our dog sleeps in an open soft crate--we don't allow dogs on furniture. If we sound like a good fit for you, I would love to talk to make sure we are indeed the right sitter for you. I know that a dog often feels as much a part of a family as a child -- and would be honored to be entrusted with such a responsibility. Thank you. :)

About: Hi, I’m John — a lifelong animal lover with over 40 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and even birds. I’m also the owner of Vermont Dog Camp, where I lead off-leash group adventures for pups across Addison County. I bring decades of hands-on experience and a deep respect for every animal’s unique personality. I am insured and certified in animal 1st aid/CPR. When I’m not walking dogs with Vermont Dog Camp, I’m usually spending time at home with my own pets or caring for others in the neighborhood. Whether it’s a morning walk, a midday check-in, or a cozy evening visit, I always make time to give each pet the attention and care they deserve. I currently only offer service in the client's home or off-site for walks. Dog walks can be in town, or on public or privately owned land away from crowds and traffic.

About: I’m a fur mama of one 85lb , 3 year old mush who is hyper, energetic , and very needy. I love taking him on walks, to the beach, and anywhere he can go to get his energy out. My fiancé and I are planning our dream wedding and I would love to offer pet care in your house ( or mine if your dog or dog friendly) . I would love to give someone the opportunity to go on vacation without the Warriors of their pet being lonely or not getting the attention they deserve. I’m well experienced in dogs of all breeds and sizes and emotional/ physical needs. I am a teacher Monday- Friday but have weekends and summers off. I can be there before and after school, as well. Weekends I am free. I want to offer your pet lots of love, care and engagement while you are traveling. I try to keep them on their normally scheduled routine and work with the pet parent to make sure they are comfortable or have any special requests.
