House Sitting in Arkansas City

About: Hi, I'm Stacie! I’ve had dogs off and on for most of my life. We are a dog-loving family (mom, dad, and three teens) and currently have one little guy named Smalls and one slightly bigger guy named Max. I would love to help out with your dog, whether it’s a long walk around the neighborhood, a check-in and playtime, or giving him/her a comfortable place to call home for a few nights. I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. When I am away from home it’s usually for no more than a few hours, and usually two or three of us are at the house most of the time (my husband also works from home...and we have two daughters doing virtual school and college classes). If you choose the daycare option, this includes up to 9 hours of care. Please contact me if you need more or have a schedule question. Boarding overnight includes 24 hours of care. I have a large open fenced yard to play with your dog, as well as a nice neighborhood for long walks. I do prefer for dogs to be crate-trained for their safety if I need to leave the house and no one is currently home. My little dog can be slightly anxious about new friends at first but usually warms up quickly since I've been doing this for a while now! Also, we do have several different areas in the house if we needed to separate dogs for any reason. Safety is our number one priority. Your dog will have someone around to give him/her lots of attention and care. Our goal is to meet the needs of your dog to assure they are safe, comfortable, and having fun during their stay!

“I really wanted to take some time and say that Essence was amazing. She sent me updates and pictures often. She was attentive to their quirks and needs. I came home and my dogs were happy to see me but you could tell they were happy about spending so much wonderful time with their new best friend (Essence). She was very respectful of our home and it feels cleaner than when I left! ? We may have to set up a weekly drop in now because my dogs loved her!”

“I have used Angela twice for 1-2 weeks when I was out of the country. She does a wonderful job with both my dogs, one puppy, and one very old dog. When I used to the second time, they seemed extremely glad to see her She even watered my plants! I highly recommend.”

“I have dogs and cats, and when I go to Mexico in the summers, I need someone to take care of them and since Mia is one my best friend, she usually take care of them till I get back.”

“Lauren is very kind-hearted and will go out of her way to put a smile on someone's face. She is amazing with animals of all kinds and a joy to be around. She is consistent and has excellent time management skills”

“Have known her for years and has the biggest heart for dogs. Very kind loving and treat every pet she sees as her own, spoils them to death and loves them unconditionally. 100% trust her with my pups 💕”

“Hayley is great with animals. She worked at the aquarium for several years and talks about it frequently. She loves getting to spend time with all kinds of dogs but has a sweet spot for big dogs.”

“Ruby is an exceptional care giver. We have 3 dogs and 3 cats and she takes very good care of them, walking the dogs when needed. She makes sure they've had their vaccines and makes sure they are overall in good health.”

“Lydia loves dogs and dogs love her. I've seen anti-social dogs fall in love with Lydia very quickly. She's conscientious in her care, playful in her approach, and responsible in her manners. Both of our recent dogs were temperamental, but Lydia had no problem connecting with them and building a bridge or trust and understanding. I highly recommend her!”
