Cat Sitting in Douglas

“Jane did a great job taking care of my cats while we were away. She dealt easily with my spicy kitty and my old kitty, 15, who is very shy, even came out to be petted. She also communicated well and the boxes and food dishes were tidy.”

“Connor was a lifesaver coming to drop-in and feed/let our dogs out when my husband was unexpectedly away and I was at work. The dogs love him and we’re so grateful to have someone we trust come take care of our boys!”

“Ashton is great! She has sitted for us twice now and something random always seems to go astray, but she handles the situation perfectly! I didn't worry about my pets when we were out of the country for 3 weeks, and that is saying A LOT. She has taken care of our dogs, cats, chickens and house bird. She also looks after the plants. Thank you, Ashton, for the piece of mind I needed to go so far away.”

“Haley did a fantastic job with our four cats! She was very communicative and sent pictures with each visit, which we loved. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again for future trips.”

“We are so happy to have had Jordan looking after our Tyrion kitty. We give her FIVE STARS. She is very considerate to people as well as our pet. While we were away she communicated with lovely photos of the play time they had together, and any changes to the program such as feeding time, (Tyrion made sure to let her know he was ready). And based upon her experience as a vet tech, she inquired if there were some known allergies due to observed itching. Jordan is a great sitter, you won't be disappointed !!”

“Marcella is a very concientious and caring pet care taker. From our meet&greet forward, we felt very comfortable leaving our pet's health and safety in her capable hands. Our cats took to her within a very short time of meeting. Most importantly, when we came home our cats were as comfortable and happy as when we last saw them. We would definitely hire Marcella again.”

“Lindsay and her family are the best! They took Marlo right in like as he was their own and made him feel at home. The daily updates were amazing and made us feel very comfortable. Marlo didn’t want to leave and can’t wait to go back!”

“Have used Jasper multiple times now and would book again, great communicator!”

“Samantha is outstanding A+! This is the first time we've had to had someone come in for our two cats while away for a week. So glad to have found Samantha - and will use her again when needed. She's sweet, responsive, communicates perfectly and obviously loves animals. I wouldn't hesitate recommending her to anyone! A+”

We think she has a bigger breed mixed in somewhere! 🦴Lulu can run 30 mph! It’s in her 🧬 🦴Lulu likes to observe other dogs from a distance or walk around them to take careful consideration of her new friends but sometimes plays and barks when she wants something but also likes naps and respecting dogs space! 🦴 Lulu is very special. 🦴Lulu shares her toys and treats and food well! 🦴Lulu weighs 50 pounds and has loved the company of visitors coming and going for 4 years from 13 pound dogs to 165 pound dogs! 🐶 🐾 We’re usually available to meet and greet same day or Sundays mornings or noon is the best day and time usually for meet and greets. 🚑 Mike is a trained Emergency Medical Tech retired from that job providing the best care for your pet/s and peace of mind while your away if medical attention is needed. 🦴 We have had pet dogs our entire lives (we are in our 30's) and moved into our new house with fenced in backyard in 2019. 🦴 We came up with the idea to begin dog sitting in 2020 when Michael’s parents wanted to have longer care of the dogs we shared with them during a Covid lockdown and so we started allowing dogs to come stay with us through Rover. 🦴 We then adopted our own dog Lulu and trained her carefully and inspired her best self! 🦴 Lulu gets along with other dogs wonderfully and is very friendly with dogs and children she will want your affection and jump on adults and children! 🦴 Lulu will bark when she’s jealous and just wants to be pet by you when you come here with your pet too. 🦴 The best meet and greet plan is meeting in the front yard in a neutral area. 🦴 A lot of times I just bring the dog right out the front gate as soon as you pull your car up! 🦴 Just bring your dog out of your car when you park and we can meet and greet in a neutral area for the dogs. 🦴 Both or one at a time if you bring more than one dog is fine with Lulu! 🦴 After they smell each other and they look happy then they can go into the backyard all together and let them off their leashes right away to run around. 🦴When it comes to dog owners seeing Lulu as an opportunity to help their dog we have had some owners want their dog to socialize with nice dogs and so Lulu is their hope to help rehabilitate after their dogs bad experience and sometimes the meeting works for the dog or sometimes the dog hides behind the owner and doesn’t want to meet and greet. 🦴 Besides that we always book every meet and greet because we strive for the best customer service! 🏡We take excellent care of our beautiful home with backyard well lit 4 spot lights, 16 up-lighting, 3 gazebo downlights, path lights. 🥰We really care about making your dog feel at home! 💧Always changing the water bowl with fresh water. Mike likes to mention that he installed a 5 stage water filtration system the entire family can use that we extend to our dog family. We clean it every time the bowl gets dirty of half way low. 🗓️We update our calendar all the time. We pickup repeat clients frequently get in while you still can! 💯We are usually always available on the weekends and 100% every Sunday usually unless we’re hosting an holiday here. 🛋️If your dog/s are house trained/broken they are more than welcome to sleep safely on our couch and use the memory foam bed and new memory foam shaggy carpet. 🤗We will allow your dog/s to sit and cuddle on the couch with us in our living room but Mike usually sits in a computer chair in the corner and lets the dogs have fun playing and follows the dogs in and outside attending to them in person giving as much access outside as desired while home. 🚙Sometimes we book travelers with dogs without meet and greets too! 😇I will be clear and upfront with you ASAP to determine if it is a good fit with our availability and may be able to help flex our schedule so that we may meet your demands and expectations depending on what you're asking for. We work with you around your travel needs. 🐾We are usually home with the exception of 6 hours 3 or 4 days a week. 🥅We have 4ft tall gates at the stairwell and kitchen/living room divider and provide different sized crates if your dog needs one due to being too energetic/ untrained/ can’t be trusted at night when not monitored but we always hope your dog will enjoy our memory foam rug or memory foam dog bed for them while lulu sleeps upstairs on our bed and we monitor them with security cameras so that you don’t have to provide yours own bed or crate. -We offer other services such as being available to come to your house and walk your dog in your neighborhood. If you have more than one dog at your house we will cut the rate in half that rover quotes you per our own policy because we feel like shouldn’t have to pay double for the same visit and then each additional dog +$10 each drop in. Mike walks two dogs at the same time maximum with a safety strap around his wrist coupled around the leash so he will never lose a single dog! 🏆We carry our own 2 million dollar pet care insurance on top of Rovers pet care insurance guarantee that will provide coverage of everyone and everything in our house. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️After 42 dogs (at the time of this writing) that have come dog boarded with 20 5 star reviews and no complaints from a single customer we have never had to use insurance or had a single injury or incident with any dogs or people! -Please allow us the pleasure to get to know you and your pet/s better!🐾 🤝Last but not least! Please support us! 🫶🏻👌🏻The reason why our rate goes up after five days to $10 more per day for the entire stay is due to the fact that we do a lot of extra freebies after five days we feel that dogs need story-time📖 extra walks,extra treats 🦴🍖so that they feel like they’re still loved even more and often times owners will only drop off a bag of food. 💲 $40/$50 per night is very reasonable if you look around at the area for doggy daycare or doggy boarding! 🤩BEST in the business travel insurance! 🚀🛬🚍🚊🚢🚂We include one day travel insurance. If you have to get back later, we give you the night free. 🗣️Mike is known as a dog whisperer! 👋We’re very responsive with texting and answering you! 😊 Thank you! Stacey and Mike 😎 We wake with our dog and start our day together and end our day together sleeping in our bed. We revolve around our dog life. We carry our own pet care insurance on top of Rovers pet care insurance guarantee that will provide the best care for your pet and peace of mind while your away! We have a large fenced in backyard with multiple Ring cameras outside/ inside while we are home you will see outside and while we are away you will see inside / handful of cameras with guest access to ring cameras such as 2 way audio and video, playback, history, alarms, real time motion alerts, downloads. We make our own high quality videos using the latest 48MP camera to share with you playing, going for walks, eating treats etc. Our dog loves to dog and teach other dogs how-to-dog. Lulu shows patience while sharing toys with lower energy dogs or dogs who don’t prefer to run around but still prefer to enjoy their toys to themselves by picking up on your pet/s body language and giving space to let her guests enjoy our toys or toys provided by you with your pet. She will also love to join in if she feels comfortable. She is very friendly and outgoing fun loving silly with new dog friends. Most pet owners just drop their dog off and have a great time without the two way chatting with their dogs but we’re always willing to help you download the app and login for a live chat! We could also offer FaceTime. Last but not least in order of importance is we make sure that the environment is suitable for all and safe and clear from any hazards. We stay with the dogs at all times and don’t use the security cameras as a substitute for being present and is only for peace of mind and briefly monitoring while getting a coat on to go outside with them when they use the dog door.
