PET & House-Sitting

Deciding to hire house sitting services to come into your home and care for your dog and family of pets tells me one thing: pets are your family. I understand that some pets just need general care such as food, water, and a clean, safe home, and keeping proper feeding times is important. Cats can be a bit unpredictable at times, whereas dogs have different needs altogether.

My number one priority is to maintain your dog’s normal routine in the comfort of his or her home. You have chosen these pet care services to ensure that your dog receives the best attention while you are away. I will work hard to help you feel at ease by providing plenty of updates and photos.

With a genuine love for dogs, my dedication will be evident when I care for yours. I truly enjoy the time I spend with them and hope to gain a new friend when all is said and done through these pet sitting experiences.

Does your dog or cat suffer from separation anxiety? Most pets do to some degree when they are left alone. Some dogs with separation anxiety become agitated when their humans prepare to leave. Others seem anxious or depressed before their guardians depart or when they aren’t present. Some even try to prevent their humans from leaving. Typically, right after a guardian utilizes house sitting services or departs for a while, a dog suffering from separation anxiety will begin barking and displaying other distress behaviors within minutes of being left alone. When their guardian returns home, the dog acts as though it’s been years since they’ve seen their pet care provider! I can never replace their humans; they will always miss you. However, through my dedicated pet sitting services, I will work hard to help them forget about you a little.

A new puppy brings such joy to a family. They are so adorable and certainly tug at your heart. I will continue the potty training you have in place, as maintaining routines is crucial in pet care. I will follow your instructions for food and water. Most importantly, to help manage energy and anxiety, we will have lots of playtime and love, while ensuring the best house sitting services are provided during my pet sitting.

I understand that I may have a preference for dogs, but that doesn't mean I won't love and provide excellent pet care for your kitty. Through my house sitting services, I have cared for and transported many cats. Some of them just adored the company, and I truly enjoyed spending time with them. There have been instances where I've had to look for certain cats just to check on them. Of course, there are also some cats that may prefer to be left alone. Feeding will be done according to your instructions, and I will always maintain a clean litter box and living area, ensuring fresh water is always available. Play and cuddle time can be arranged based on your cat's personality. During the entire stay, I will ensure that all cats are kept indoors for their safety.

Pets are cherished members of your family. Ensuring their care, friendship, and companionship is my top priority while offering my house sitting services. I want you to feel at ease when you are away, knowing that your pets are receiving the love and attention they deserve. With experience caring for a variety of animals, including turtles, lizards, birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, and aquariums, I am well-equipped to provide the best pet care for your furry friends. Rest assured, all your pets will be tended to according to your specific instructions. I have a genuine love for all animals and am always eager to meet and learn about any pet you might have while providing excellent pet sitting services.

In most cases, caring for a senior dog and a special needs dog can be incredibly rewarding. While I am not a veterinarian or a vet tech, I do have experience with dogs that require extra pet care. If I ever feel that I am not qualified to provide the best house sitting services for your pet, I will honestly inform you and decline the job.

Feeding

During your pet's stay with my house sitting services, I will adhere to their regular feeding schedule. I won't reinvent the wheel; your pets will be fed according to your specific instructions. Treats will be provided based on your guidelines, and any special diets will be strictly followed. If necessary, I am happy to cook for your pets. Fresh water will always be available.

Medication

When it comes to pet care, if a pet requires medication during their stay, I take this responsibility very seriously. I have ample experience administering oral meds, ear drops, and eye drops, though my experience with injections is limited. All medications will be given exactly as prescribed, following your instructions to ensure the well-being of your pet. Rest assured, your furry friends are in good hands with my pet sitting services.

No need to miss any pet appointments while you are away. During my house sitting services, I will ensure your pet receives the best care by taking them to any appointments they might have, whether it's to the vet, groomer, dog park, or even a play date.

I take the trust you have in me for your family members, pets, and property very seriously. My house sitting services provide a sense of security for your home while you are away. During my stay, I will respect your privacy and ensure that your home remains just as I found it upon arrival. I will bring my own bedding, food, coffee, and personal care items. In addition to caring for your property, I will also handle pet care and pet sitting needs, taking care of those little things like mail, packages, and trash. We can discuss any special details about your property during our Meet & Greet.

Pets and Property

I like to establish a basic emergency plan with every stay for house sitting services. Pet care information, like vet details, is most important. I also include emergency contact information and any special procedures for power outages. These are just a few examples of what to prepare for pet sitting. The more we have, the better.
