House Sitting Augusta

“Kat is my favorite dog sitter and walker of all time. She is so loving and caring with my dogs, which is the main reason to hire her. But beyond that- she is also super communicative during dog-sitting, she is willing use the special prong collar one of my dogs needs and use her training commands, and in general I find she goes above and beyond to make the dogs comfortable. :-)”

“Ashton was perfect. We came home to a very relaxed and happy dog. That is a surprise as he is usually quite anxious when we leave. Thanks Ashton”

“Jill is the absolute best. She provides so much love and attention to our dogs. They are so well cared for with Jill, I never have to worry about them!”

About: I have had to take care of all types of dogs. Small, large, quiet, rowdy, shy, excited, sweet, a bit aggressive, handled it all! Even if I can't handle extremely young puppies just yet, I can assure you that I will always do my best to play, feed, walk, treat, and anything else that your dog needs to be healthy and comfortable. I'm a college student taking classes around lunch time (10-1, depending on the day), but all that extra time can go to your animals! Plus, I don't normally have anything on Fridays, Saturdays, or Sundays, so if your animals need constant attention those days are perfect! Whatever care your dog needs in your home, I am happy to provide. I listen to every instruction and will be sure to do the most I can so that your pet is happy, healthy, and safe in whatever confines you have for them.

“Gypsy, our Border Collie, loves Kierra and her mom and partner. From the first time that they walked into our house, she sensed that they were good people. We agree! They are punctual, sent daily updates and just went well above our expectations. They are definitely our A- team for dog care!”

“Nadia was a joy to work with. Very professional. She kept us informed on the days events. Sent pics & videos of her interaction with our kitty's! Put my mind at ease, since I've never left my 2 year old cats alone. Plus she maintained security of my shop & belongings. I would highly recommend Nadia. We will always request her. If your looking for someone that is on top of their game + trustworthy, its Nadia”

“Lydia did a really great job watching my dogs! They aren’t easy since one is in his senior years and the other is much younger. She got my old boy his meds and got him fed which isn’t always easy. She walked my dogs daily which I really appreciate! Plenty of pics to check in and she asked questions because I always leave out some detail here or there lol.”

“Alaina was wonderful! She stayed with our pack and watched our home over the weekend. She was communicative, kind, and clean. And our pups loved her! Thank you for giving us peace of mind while away. We would absolutely love to use your services in the future.”

“Christina was so awesome! She and her daughter loved and cared for Kobe and our home while we were gone for a week. She sent us a text or photo everyday and Kobe loved her! Our house was clean and perfect when we got back too. Would 100% book Christina again.”

About: I’ve been involved in pet care the entirety of my adulthood. From big sled dogs to frenchies and more, I’ve played along with more than I can say. Experienced specifically with large breed dogs and small to medium reactive dogs. I work almost full time at a local doggy daycare. If your pet is a client there I’m happy to be flexible about drop off and pick up from there. I have varying flexibility throughout the week. Friday is the day I’m least available. I offer primarily drop in visits and walks. Well mannered dogs may walk with myself and my friendly, female dog. Others may get a little more one on one time if uncomfortable with other dogs.

“Arica was fantastic with our crew! We really appreciated her being here with them while we were traveling. We felt completely safe with her here!”

“From the meet and greet, it was obvious that Grace is a dog lover. While we were on vacation, Grace kept us updated with pictures of our pups. When delays kept us away longer than expected, Grace was flexible, professional, and accommodating.”

About: I have owned and taken care of pets my whole life. Within the past five years did I start actively pet sitting. Services I have experience in include staying overnight (can be long term after discussion), drop-ins, feeding, and consistent walking. I also have helped pets with taking medications. I am currently working full time, so pet care would best work Friday to Sunday evening. If the location is close, I will be able to do weekday overnight stays. I would like to see the owner’s home first to ensure I can get in / get out and take care of the pet properly! This includes taking note of fenced yards, any space the pet is not allowed in, and being aware of pet habits (chewing on items, scratching, not potty trained). This ensures I know what to do beforehand and can give the best pet care.

About: I have taken care of pets my whole life and have house sat for pets of all types in my neighborhood, I love taking pets on walks and visiting dog parks. I am currently a college student that is free during the summer besides having online classes. I go to the gym in the morning but otherwise am quite free, just tending to my apartment. I have had multiple cats and dogs in the past and have volunteered at animal shelters so have a ton of knowledge on proper care for animals. I am also great at following instructions.

About: Hello! My name is Garin and I’m a happy business owner as well as avid movie buff and traveler. If hired I promise to take the best care possible of your beloved furry ones whenever the time is needed! As a business owner I have unique flexibility for pet’s different needs and am available just about anytime even last minute and on some holidays We have a beloved cat Clover that mostly hangs out in our room and has a comfortable playpen when we take longer trips that we can’t bring her on. When caring for client pets we usually attempt minimal routine disruption and treat the pets as if they were our own on our own schedule

About: I have extensive experience in pet sitting and animal care as I worked in the Veterinary Field for over 4 years. I will love you pets as if they were my own. I am available all days of the week. All day on Wednesdays, Fridays-Sundays. I’m a part time Veterinary Assistant and have plenty of free time to care your your furry family member. :) I have a pet friendly golden retriever at home who LOVES other pets. I am able to crate your pet if needed. I am able to accommodate pets individual needs.

About: I have extensive pet sitting and house sitting experience. Not only are our pets our companions; they’re our family. It’s important for me to earn the trust of my client - YOU - because you’re allowing me to spend time with your beloved pet(s)! That’s a win win for the both of us! I genuinely adore animals of all kinds and I take my responsibility as their caretaker or nurturer very seriously. -DOGGO EXPERIENCE: Many different breeds, shapes, sizes. Some with special needs. I’ve worked with clients, both known and unknown, as well as family and friends who all are more than willing to provide more in-depth references on me, if you so desire. Experience with long term care of large pit bull that needed training assistance in Arizona. I also housesat and petsat for a family with a large Weimaraner who had special needs (nervous problems especially) in Kalamazoo, Michigan that I had to be extra sensitive and mindful to. (Each of these families both kept me on for multiple years, depending on my location at the time.) CATS (very experienced and skilled with cats - my knowledge of them is above and beyond, as I have 2 of my own myself, both rescues.) (2) Rabbits - one was my roommates; the other belongs to a very close friend and her Husband. I am experienced feeding them and I have knowledge of their temperaments and needs. Reptile experience: 2 Snakes (I am not comfortable feeding them mice, however, sorry about that, but I am experienced with humidifying their environments and checking up on them - fearlessly!) Any other questions? Please just ask me! :) My Mom passed away last summer and I decided to move back home to Michigan and take a year off to tend to my Father, being that I’m an only child and he’s my only family left. I am grateful to be back home in Michigan, and I’d like to utilize my free time wisely - pet sitting / house sitting / spending time with animals brings me peace and joy! My career consisted of a tremendous amount of safety and security tasks. I am a reputable individual with drive and passion and I love connecting with people. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies!!! I am available in the greater West Michigan area. If you are not in Kalamazooo, I am more than willing to travel to you for a small fee, depending how far it takes for me to drive to you. I want you to be at comfort and ease while you’re away, so I always ask for a little note about your expectations of me, your pet(s) feeding schedule, walking schedule and typical routes, what is ok/not ok in regards to (being on the furniture, offering treats, jumping on people - I don’t mind being jumped on at all by a cute dog, but if that’s something you’re trying to train your dog NOT to do, please note that, for example, so I can contribute to your training rather than mess it up. My home is open to dogs (only one at a time) who are OK being around my cat, Oliver. He has been acclimated with dogs.. and I would typically keep them separated if you want me to watch them in my home. I have an apartment, and we have a nice dog park.. but do keep in mind; I might have to fluctuate your fees depending on what adjustments I may need to make to my home or lifestyle to accommodate your pet in my home temporarily! In your home, I am very respectable and trustworthy (with plenty of references so you feel comfortable). I don’t mind doing light cleaning while I am in your space, I always clean up after myself and your pet while you are away. Again, any expectations of me? Just inform me! :)

About: As a pet owner (cats, dogs and hamsters), I am offering the same care I looked for when I had pet sitting needs—dependability and love for pets. I work full time remotely so I’m flexible during the week. I do travel with my job and many of my weekends are full. I will keep my schedule updated so times are known when I can help. I am willing to watch your dog or cat at your house. I currently have a friendly cat but he doesn’t understand not all dogs love him. If I watch your dog at my house, the dog would need to meet my cat first to make sure they are ok. I do have a fenced in yard.

About: I’ve taken care of animals for several years for several families and love it so much! I have two dogs and two cats of my own that I love so much! I have experience with all different types of dogs and even have to give an insulin shots everyday to one of the dogs I watch. Your furry friend will be in amazing care I have a very open schedule and available almost all the time. I’m a college student all online this semester so I’m home all the time to take care of your pets! I live in a house with a yard(not fenced) and live a mile away from a park and hiking trails if your pup would like that! I live in a nice neighborhood good for walks! And have two pups who are friendly with dogs and cats as well as two cats who are friendly!
