House Sitting Wood River Junction

About: I’ve been working with and caring for animals my entire life. My experience includes working as a vet tech, groomer, trap & release, spay & nueter programs, pet sitting, dog walking, animal transport, rescue and fostering. I am also comforable with administering medications and working with all personality traits. I understand the pack dynamic and am not intimidated when handling multiple pet type homes and dogs of all sizes. I am patient and animals respond well to my calm and confident nature. I work full time through out the school year and part time during the summer and can easily adjust my work schedule to accommodate drop in visits and dog walking services. Visiting pets can be crated if needed or gated in their own room while I am away from home. While I am home they will be free to roam the house and enjoy outside time safely in my fenced in yard.

“Great person to be with our Thor! Definitely will hire her again”

About: I've had pets of all types from Agway to Petco and beyond since I was 12 years old. My bond seems to be the strongest with dogs, but some say I have a gift with all animals. I recently cared for my best friend Salty for 16 years, and he would want me to share my lessons learned with other deserving pups! I work only part time, remote and in the office. My schedule is very flexible and I love to be outside in any weather. I am focused on dogs, but if you have some other unique friend, I'm willing to discuss options so not pet is left behind! I have a large garage pups love to run in, and I’m very close to 6 parks and the beaches, and do not have any other pets at this time. Salty, our Jack Russell Terrier left us on May 30, 2025. Although we miss him terribly, we learned a lot about dogs over the past 16 years with him!

“Rachel was fantastic! Polly and Amber were obviously well looked after and exercised. Will definitely use her again.”

“Five Stars all around for Natalie! She took excellent care of my two pups— they were in capable hands and the house was clean when we came home. We will definitely hire Natalie again and highly recommend her!”

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, as well as cats and other small pets. I’m attentive, patient, and adaptable to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, or simply companionship and cuddles, I’m dedicated to making sure they feel happy and comfortable. My patience and calm approach are especially helpful when caring for puppies who are still learning routines and senior dogs who may need extra support, gentleness, and attention. I work full-time during the week, which allows me to offer pet care services after 5 PM Monday through Thursday, along with open availability on weekends. I’m also available for overnight care and happy to accommodate special requests, including extended stays and flexible care arrangements whenever possible. I always prioritize safety and comfort while caring for animals. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times. I supervise pets during walks, playtime, meals, and outdoor time. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions and routines, including feeding schedules, medications, crate routines, and any household rules. I live in a clean, safe, and pet-friendly home where pets can feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for.

“Choosing a pet sitter online can feel like a leap of faith, but Emily made it an absolute breeze. I was initially nervous about having someone stay in our home, but after seeing her glowing reviews, her high number of repeat clients, and having a great meet-and-greet, I felt completely confident in my choice. Emily is a true professional. She handled a complex medication schedule for one of our pups—administering tablets three times a day—which was a huge relief since that midday dose is critical. She kept us updated with regular feedback and photos, and I really appreciated that she reached out with questions when needed; it showed she truly cared about getting things right. The real "above and beyond" moment happened when a forecasted 1" of snow turned into an unexpected 8–10" blizzard overnight. Without being asked (and way beyond her duties), Emily took it upon herself to shovel our path and driveway. Emily clearly goes the extra mile. If you want peace of mind and a sitter who treats your home and pets like her own, hire her!”

About: I’ve been caring for and walking dogs in my neighborhood for many years and have always loved being around animals. I’ve had two dogs of my own over the years, so I understand how important it is to give pets plenty of attention, care, and love. Dogs are definitely my favorite animals, and I truly enjoy spending time with furry friends! I’m currently working part time as a server. I am available all day sunday and mondays and all mornings and most nights. I’m very flexible! I have a very nice neighborhood and a friendly dog who loves other puppies. and a very friendly kitty that stays out of the way when needed.

“Miranda did an excellent job taking care of our pups and keeping an eye on our house. She was professional and maintained great communications. We really enjoyed getting the pictures while we were gone. The dogs all seemed to like her, including our one who normally takes awhile to trust people.”

About: I’ve grown up caring for both a dog and a cat, so I’m very comfortable with pets of different personalities, energy levels, and needs. In addition to my own pets, I regularly dog sat a corgi named Allen for two years, giving me hands-on experience with consistent routines like feeding, walking, playtime, and providing lots of attention and care. What sets me apart is how attentive and patient I am with animals! I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and make sure to follow each pet’s routine closely so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m also great with maintaining structure, whether that’s sticking to feeding schedules or making sure energetic dogs get the exercise they need. I currently work part-time, but I have flexible availability during the week and weekends. I am unavailable on Friday nights, but I’m happy to help with mornings, afternoons, and other evenings. I’ll always communicate clearly and make sure your pet’s care fits reliably into my schedule. I prioritize a safe, calm, and clean environment for every pet. I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable and stress-free, and I’m always attentive to their needs. I make sure doors and leashes are secure, provide plenty of care and supervision, and communicate with you so you feel confident your pet is in good hands.

“My stubborn old rescue chow liked her. What more could you want.”

“Mike is the absolute best dog sitter you will find! He’s so attentive and sent so many updates/pictures/videos, I knew my dog was having the time of her life with him!! He will be my first go to when Lola needs a sitter from now on, he’s incredible!!”

About: I have been taking care of my family members dogs since I was 12 years old. With my cousins living across the street they have always had pets I have fallen in love with. Golden retrievers, golden doodles, bernadoodles, and the same fierce cat hazel. I have spent nights at theirs taking care of the dogs as they were on vacation. These were always my favorite times because I have never had a pet myself but I consider theirs my own. I am not currently working full time with a flexible summer schedule so I can make myself available to help you and your busy schedules!! I have a large backyard on a safe col de sac with very little road traffic. My cousins dogs love to roam around my home. At your homes I will always have an eye on the dogs outside, inside, and ensuring they are safe and happy at all times!

“Sarah and Mason were very reliable and communicative. Felt comfortable leaving our 3 dogs in their care for an extended amount of time. Would definitely use their services again in the future.”

“Heather was amazing! Communication was excellent and she was so accommodating when our plans changed. One of my dogs is a senior and she stayed with him which was so sweet considering I gave her the option. Even my cats, who usually aren’t super social, took to her from the first meeting. I would absolutely hire her again and would strongly recommend her to anyone! Above and beyond my expectations!”

Susan L.

“Amy was marvelous! Our dogs took to her immediately, and she was instantly comfortable with them as well. Throughout her stay, Amy sent pictures and let us know how things were going. Not only were the dogs happy and well-cared for, but Amy left our house exactly as she found it. high recommend Amy, for her professionalism and her personal warmth.”
