House Sitting Downieville-Lawson-Dumont

“We booked Skye at the last minute and she was great to work with. She was communicative and shared amazing photos of our animals and their adventures.”

“We left our two very active golden retrievers with Alec for the week. Along with plants to water and bird feeders to manage. He was professional, caring, and communicated well. My animals and home were tended as if it was his own ( or maybe his family home!) . I would never hesitate to have him come back and he certainly earned a 5 star rating. The house was clean on our return and although the dogs were excited to see us I could tell there was no stress evident from our absence.”

“Eric was a wonderful house and pet sitter! Our dog, Willow, loved Eric and his dog Rufus. Eric took Willow on many hikes and left our house in pristine condition. We would definitely recommend Eric to anyone living or staying in Summit County! Thank you so much!”

About: I have been taking care of a large variety of dogs for 20 years. From eight weeks old to 16 years old, from pugs to chows and pitbulls to 140 pound malamutes I have cared for them all. I can come by to walk and feed your best friends once a day or stay and cook them meals as per your request. I want to make sure you and your loved ones are as comfortable as possible while you are away. I do freelance work so I have pretty open availability. Making sure you're needs are met so you are comfortable is my top priority. If for some reason I can't meet all of your needs I will tell you before committing to something that doesn't fit my schedule or abilities. I am here for you. How I care for your pets and home is mostly dependent on your requests. I give medicine, food and exercise as requested. I can simply fill a food bowl, measure servings and even cook protein and veggies for your dogs if that is what you want. I am happy to keep you updated or send you pictures if you'd like. Walks are as far/long/plentiful as requested. I want to provide you with the comfort of knowing someone is there to care for your loved one as you would while you are away.

“Amy did a great job! My pets and house were in good condition when we got home. I got daily reports on how things were going.”

“Lilou did a very good job communicating with us and was patient when we didn’t get back to her on a question. The dogs were taken care of as well as the house. Appreciate her very much”

About: I have three dogs of my own two of those being high energy. Additionally I spent some time in the veterinary field. My brother has had me dog sit for him on several occasions. I’m currently working extremely part time so I am available most mornings and afternoons. I am available most weekends as well and sometimes for overnight sits. I will take care of your fur babies as if they were my own. I love being outdoors so several walks per day is no issue.

About: Hi! I’m semi- retired, flexible and here to help! I am an experienced and dedicated dog owner with over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of various breeds, ages, sizes, and temperaments. Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them isn’t just something I do — it’s something I truly love. I have extensive experience with both large and small breeds, including strong, high-energy dogs and those who need a little extra patience and understanding. I’m confident handling everything from tiny companions to powerful working breeds, and I’m comfortable managing leash manners, reactivity, and high-drive personalities. Over the years, I’ve also worked alongside several professional trainers to develop improve upon training techniques and deepen my understanding of canine behavior. This has given me strong skills in structure, positive reinforcement, consistency, and reading body language — ensuring every dog in my care feels safe, understood, and supported. I currently have two dogs of my own who keep me on my toes! One required daily medication and eye drops for most of her life and is now blind, so I’m very experienced with administering medication, caring for special needs dogs, and providing the extra patience and environmental awareness they require. My other is a 90lb Rottweiler — a big, strong, lovable goofball — so I’m more than comfortable handling large, powerful breeds with confidence and control. Whether your dog needs structured walks, medication management, extra patience, or just lots of love and play, I provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care tailored to their individual needs. I treat every dog as if they were my own and prioritize safety, routine, and plenty of affection. I’d love to meet your pup and provide them with a fun, safe, and caring experience! I’m currently semi retired so have flexibility to adapt to your dogs needs, routine and playtime! I love going for walks, helping with training, providing mental stimulation as well as exercise. My dogs are pretty “spoiled” according to my friends; they eat (home prepared meals) 3 times a day (not including treats) and get tons of attention. I’m happy to provide the same level of love, attentiveness and care to any and every dog I possibly can. 💜 I have a small fenced in yard and a comfortable cozy home. I do have two dogs but have the ability to keep mine separate if needed. If requesting home sitting services, I have done the same and fully understand the level of of trust, cleanliness and respect needed in these situations.

“Emma did an absolute amazing job with my pup! Kept in contact and sent pics. I would highly recommend her! She not only took great care of Bear Bear, but also of my home. Thank you Emma!”

“Bryan was a wonderful house guest, he kept my mind at ease about leaving my pets at home through lots of updates. We came back to a clean home and happy pets. Would recommend for house and pet sitting!”

Martha P.

“Robin was phenomenal and made us feel at ease while we were out of town. Our pup was completely comfortable with her, and we came home to a spotless house. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again if/when she's available!”

“Isabella is fantastic! Super responsive, she kept me updated and I came home to happy calm dogs. I look forward to working with her again.”

“While away on vacation, Mitch did an incredible job of watching over our four dogs as well as our home. From our initial meet-and-greet, you can tell that dogs love him. Even our skittish Pippin and Remi responded to him almost immediately. We felt they were in great hands which gave us much comfort being out of the country and he communicated with us daily through texts and pictures. The house was spotless and well cared for when we returned. Thanks to his care, Mitch is now our "go to" sitter!”

Loni K.

“Chris was awesome. Super responsive and excellent communication, I never wondered what was going on. Love coming home to a happy and worn out pup!”

Bryce R.

“Rebecca is a wonderful and extremely caring and diligent petsitter. I knew Marilyn was in great hands and Rebecca eased my mind every day with her level of care. I appreciate how well she looked after my old girl and would love to use her services again in the future!”

About: I’ve taken care of newborn puppies all the way up to senior dogs. I’ve had a soft spot for animals all my life! This platform seems like a perfect fit! I currently work part time doing videography and travel all over the country so I plan to care for dogs in each place I visit! We have a small farm but it’s not fenced in. Our dogs run and play all day long and then just hangout. Lots to do around here as me and the dogs love to go explore!

“Sarah was a perfect fit for our pet and house-sitting needs. We recently moved to Colorado and travel frequently for work, so finding someone we could trust with our kitty, Shimmy, was incredibly important. We were away on a two-week international trip, and Sarah took wonderful care of both our home and our cat. She was communicative, responsive, and kept us updated throughout our travels. During our time away, she encountered a couple of unexpected issues and handled both professionally and calmly, which gave us great peace of mind. When we returned home, the house was in perfect condition, and Shimmy was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy pet and house sitter.”

About: I’ve owned and cared for pets of all kinds, having dogsitting/housesitting experience since high school. I bring enthusiasm, energy, hospitality, and respect. I enter dogsitting jobs prioritizing your rules, your boundaries, with the understanding that I serve and support your family. I’m just out of school on the job search so I have plenty of time and energy to care for and play with your pets. I have lots of flexibility and openness in my schedule. I ensure to thoughtfully check on your pets, respecting your wishes and instructions to keep them on necessary routines while maintaining good habits. I am adaptable, detailed, and mindful.

“Aurelia was absolutely wonderful. We needed a last-minute house and dog sitter for our three dogs, and she stepped in without hesitation. From the start, communication was great, she sent so many photos annd updates and it was immediately clear that she genuinely cared about the dogs and treated them like her own. I wouldn't hesitate to book Aurelia again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable sitter. We're so grateful for her help!”
