House Sitting in Ballard

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs of all sorts of breeds since I was teen. My friends and family have relied on me to feed, take on walks, and their fury friends while they’re away. I have experience taking care of senior dogs as well as dogs with several different medical needs. I’ve dog sat one dog for a weekend and I’ve also dog sat 6 dogs for a week. Owning several dogs is nothing new to me. Currently working a full-time job from 8:30am - 5:30pm Monday - Friday. If you live in the Christiansburg/Blacksburg area I am able to do drop by visits during my lunch break. Saturday and Sunday I am pretty available. I’ll make sure your fury friend gets let out at appropriate times and have plenty of time to play around if it’s just a drop by visit. Have a dog with a medical condition? No problem I have experience with dogs who have epilepsy and who are allergic to everything under the sun. Senior dogs I understand the importance in being extra patient and gentle with them.

About: I've recently graduated with a chemistry degree but pets and wildlife make me happy! Animals put a smile on my face so I would love to meet yours! I own 2 cats and took care of our family dog and cats as my weekly "chores" throughout my childhood, so I've been doing this for a long time now. Some other pets that I've owned: rabbits, gerbils, fish, aquatic snails, and a hedgehog. Rest assured that I'm always available to tend to your pet in case of an emergency. I'm available nearly any time because I set my own work schedule, and it is usually flexible for me to show up for something when needed. I can also switch things around when necessary. I'm flexible to work with. I'm more than happy to send picture updates and to take care of any special needs that your pet(s) might have! I will always be there to attend to their needs on schedule and will treat them with the same love and care that my own pets receive.

“Yulia did a great job pet sitting for us! She was a very responsive communicator and asked a lot of thoughtful questions up front to make sure we were both well-prepared. She did her best to dodge rainy weather and take Frankie on nice long walks while we were away. Loved getting pictures and updates from her on the first day and appreciated her responsiveness when I reached out on the day we were headed home.”

“Nancy was awesome! Was great with all of our animals, from dogs, cats to goats and chickens. She was very accommodating and allowed my sisters two dogs to join in on the fun on a last minute notice, so my sister was so appreciative as well. We would love to have Nancy house and animal sit for us again ☺️”

About: I don’t work during the week so I’m able to provide a lot more care and companionship to the animals that I care for. I also have been an animal lover since childhood. Ive been gifted with a job that only requires me to work weekends so I am very flexible. I can pretty much work with any schedule given prior notice. I have a large deck and fenced in yard for your animal to play with. It’s very quiet country living so no loud noise or busy traffic.
