House Sitting in Yellow Springs

“What an AMAZING house/dog sitter❣️ Annabelle went above & beyond expectations...from taking care of unexpected floral shipments that came in, to preparing the storm shelter due to possible tornados for the worst outcome & herding the 4 fur-babies in there with herself to spend the night. She kept such great communication with me while I was overseas & eased my mind with daily updates/pics. I came home to a spotless house; she even did the bed linens/bath towels, took out the trash...AMAZING doesn't begin to describe her❤️. If you don't hire her to watch your house/pets, you are missing out...but just remember, I get first dibs ❣️”

“Erica did a great job with our doggos while we were out of state for a recent trip. Though the first time they met her was when she arrived to house sit, they seemed to warm to her quickly. We returned home to find our babies happy and healthy. We've already booked our next stay with Erica!”

About: Hi! My name is Shayna. I am 29 years old and have been living in Dickson for over 18 years. I am always looking to build connections within my town and my favorite way to do that is through animals! I am happily married with a beautiful daughter, and we currently have 3 dogs and 3 cats. I also foster dogs from time to time! (We currently do NOT have any fosters, but I will be sure to update or inform you if that changes). I have had pets for all of my life, all varying from pocket pets all the way to large animal. My number one priority is the happiness and safety of your pets and I have no breed restrictions, but I do ask that you notify me ahead of time if your pet has any quirks or behavioral issues that would require additional time or care. I can also provide grooming services! I have 10 years of experience as a veterinary nurse where I have gained an abundance of knowledge in medical care and animal husbandry. I have rescued, bottle fed, and helped to place multiple pets in their forever homes. I would love to create a custom plan for your pup(s) as I understand the importance of making them comfortable and keeping them on a schedule that works for everyone, so please send me a brief message when you reach out to book giving me a general idea of what your needs are and a little info on your pup so I can get to know them. I typically respond very quickly and I look forward to hearing from you!! I am currently available any day during the week at most times of the day, however I do have an elementary school aged child that will require me to pick her up in the afternoons unless I have arranged ahead of time for alternate childcare, which is why I ask for at least a day's notice for booking, but I can usually work in same day pets as well. Having a new person entering the home can be stressful to some pets, so I always make sure to have treats and a calm demeanor when meeting new friends. I am confident in my ability to read body language and help your pet feel the most comfortable when in my care. **Boarding** (Currently very small scale as we are still setting up our boarding area) I understand that every fur baby is different and I want to insure all of the pups are as relaxed as possible. I keep our pups separated from new friends until I know for sure your pup and ours are comfortable enough for interaction. I have a fully fenced yard with a doggy door so they can come and go as they please, as long as the weather is nice. **House-sitting** I am only available on the weekends due to having a child I must get to school during the week, but I am available on the weekends when someone else can be home with her. I will happily stay at your house and take care of your pets and your home. You won't even be able to tell I was there!

“Darling was amazing with our babies. She sent pics daily and our 3 doggies seemed to love her. We felt very comfortable with her being in our home. We will definitely use her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was a wee lad. Even now, I’m the first call when friends and family need someone to watch their precious fur baby. I have a very adaptable schedule due to doing alot of gig work. Other than very late hours on the weekends when I’ve taken on a gig, it won’t be hard to figure out a time that works for us. I have a fenced yard with dog house and a large dog crate on the inside in order to keep your pup safe. Our house is in a gated low traffic community.

About: I’ve had dogs and taken care of dogs for a long time. I have experience with all different sizes and breeds. I understand how important it is to be able to trust the people taking care of our family members and promise to provide the best care for them all! I have a full time job, but I work 12 hour swing shifts, so I have days where I am completely off. On days I’m working I can come over before and after work and even stay the night with your babies if needed but on my off days I am open to it all! I have cats currently and will soon have a dog living with me to keep your pets company they are all more than friendly with other animals. I am working on getting a fence for my backyard right now. When I’m taking care of your animals I will follow your schedule to a T I know how important it is to be able to keep them on reliable schedules!

“Rose was the best. She took great care of our fur baby. Punkin really took to Rose and it was because she made her feel comfortable and safe. Rose also took great care of our home. I would recommend her for all your pets and house sitting needs. Rose is cat whisper.”

About: Do you worry about your little baby when you're away at work? Do they suffer from separation anxiety when you're gone? Do you simply need to have someone take them for a walk or feed them and real quick? I have many years of experience with dogs and cats, I give really good massages that relax anxious animals. I have a calming and gentle voice that works well with most dogs and they tend to feel at ease and enjoy their time with me until you return. Trust me to make your baby happy today I currently work part-time as a caregiver, but I hope to do dog sitting full time if the job does well. I can also offer other services like light house cleaning for other prices or cooking I will follow all house rules you have for your dog. If you don't let your dog eat people food then I won't allow them to eat it. If you go by a certain schedule for going potty, I will follow this as well.

About: I’ve taken care of my own personal reptiles, Bruce(leopard gecko) and Wayne(Bearded Dragon), for the past few years. I also had my pit bull pepper, and two terriers named Kirby and Steve. I love all animal, fur or scales, and you can trust that I will love your fur baby as much as you when you aren’t there. My schedule can more around a little, so I’m always free before 3 pm or any time after 3 pm. I am very flexible and can help to accommodate with what you need for your pets! I have a half acre backyard, with clean, low cut grass, and minimal risks. I have a large home with plenty of toys, a great neighborhood for walks/runs, and the ability to keep up with the more energetic type while still being able to calm down and relax with the chilled type of pup.
