“Yuliia was great! She took wonderful care of the dogs and the house. We got daily updates and pictures of the dogs, which I loved. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again, the next time we need a dog sitter 🤗”
About: I have experience with dogs from any age and any breed and temperament. I am also knowledgeable on giving medication (both oral and via injection). In the summer, I work part-time during the days (anywhere from 9am to 5pm), however when my college classes start up in the fall, I have much more time to spend with your pets! Before each stay, for both my and your comfort, I tend to plan a meeting to get to know your animal and your space better! I find that in person meetings with pets before housesitting exponentially improves the quality of the experience for both me and your furry friend. Complicated instructions/"trouble" animals don't deter me, either. I will play, feed, walk, and clean up after your pet for as long as needed!
“Zara provided frequent updates and communicated when she would need to leave my dog for short periods during her stay. My dog warmed up to her right away and it made me comfortable to be able to leave her. Thank you Zara!”
“Sophie really went above and beyond caring for our sweet babies. I was really worried about leaving 4 cats for 17 days but she put me at ease right away. Providing pictures and updates. She even helped us with an ant problem she noticed in the kitchen. When I got home my cats did not seem stressed like they usually do when left alone, they also seemed very well cared for. I would absolutely book Sophie again.”

Although most of my pet care experience is with dogs, I am open to caring for cats and other pets as well!
