Pet Sitting Guide Meridian

“Lizz is amazing; she took this booking last minute and had plenty of time to meet Kade twice before the booking to make sure he warmed up to her. She was so nice and patient with Kade and it looks like they had a great time! Thank you!!”

Emily R.

“Took wonderful care of my kitty! I felt comfortable with them giving mojo his daily medication because of their vet experience, and it seemed to go well. Mojo seemed happy and cared for, and the daily “rover cards” were detailed :)”

Ellie P.

“Emily does a great job! She’s flexible, trustworthy, reliable, and communicates well. She’s my go-to anytime I need a Rover sitter. Thank you!”

Andrew D.

“Jenna has been the best sitter I’ve used yet!! She was wonderful at following the instructions I left out, and asked many questions which I really appreciated. My two kittys loved her and really seemed to have a blast playing with her. Even my shy little guy was greeting her at the door! She eased so much of my anxiety leaving them for a weekend, I cannot thank her enough!”

“I am so thankful to have found Bodhi! Knowing my pets are well cared for made it so I could enjoy my trip without worrying about a thing. While away, my smoke detector low- battery sensor started to go off (it’s really loud and beeps every minute) Bodhi saved the day by replacing the batteries and resetting the detectors. Bodhi is incredible and gained my cats trust very quickly, AND went above and beyond making sure they are well taken care of and the house and their spaces are as well. Thank you so much, Bodhi!!”

“Lauren did an outstanding job. Our cat Dezi is very shy and he warmed up to her in no time.”

Eric M.

“You are amazing! Thank you for showing such patience to get him to warm up to you and get outside. We appreciate the patience and care you've shown our pup. Thank you so much!”

About: I love animals and have always had a pet in my home. I have pet-sat for neighbors and friends for many years and am good at following instructions and a schedule. I am happy to abide by your training techniques and will ensure your pet is enjoying our time together. I work full-time but have mid-week days off, so I am happy to hang with your pets while you are off at work or away! I can come by on my way to/from work as well. I will respect your space and privacy while working with your pets. I will never leave you with a mess and will work with you to develop a plan.

“Janette did a wonderful job caring for our dogs. She was reliable and communicative, and I felt at ease while on vacation knowing my dogs were in good hands.”

About: I have a large dog and cat currently, I have experience with all ages and sizes of both animals. I am very particular with who I trust with my animals and extend that same care when caring for others animals. Pet care fits well into my daily routine. I work from 6:00 PM to 2:00 AM, so I am available during the day from about 9:00 AM until I leave for work. This gives me plenty of flexibility to provide feeding, walks, playtime, check-ins, or other pet care needs throughout the day. I have both a cat and a dog at home, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets with different needs and personalities. I make sure pets have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks or clean litter, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine and the owner’s instructions closely so their pets feel safe and comfortable while they’re away. I also respect the client’s home and make sure everything is clean, secure, and taken care of before I leave.

“Arianna did a lovely job taking care of our four kitties. She was dependable and sent lots of pictures. One of our cats has to be pilled twice a day, and everything went smoothly. I recommend Arianna for cat care for sure!”

“This was our first experience with Rover and I could not be more pleased with how great Morgan was with Champ! She met him a few days before the scheduled drop-ins and he immediately started licking her and asking for pets before she even finished coming inside (Champ is normally super shy and barks a lot). Morgan was very communicative and sent several pictures and updates during each drop-in. I hate leaving Champ (I’ve only boarded him three times in his 8 years of life and am always paranoid if he’s not right by me lol) so I was nervous about how it would be for someone else to come into my house to watch him but it was the best decision. Champ hates fireworks so Morgan moved his bedding into the bathroom where he was hiding and she sat in there with him until he calmed down. If I boarded Champ he would’ve been in a kennel near a bunch of other dogs freaking out about the fireworks but Champ got to be in his own home where he feels safe. She went above and beyond any expectations I had. I laid out some pee pads and sure enough, Champ understandably had a couple of accidents because he wouldn’t go outside during the fireworks and Morgan cleaned up without any complaints. I would be thrilled to have Morgan take care of Champ again next time I go out of town!”

About: *About our place: For the holiday season I am booked! My son is available to housesit and do drop ins if interested please let me know. He has plenty of experience housesitting for friends farms as well as taking care of our pets. I will oversee his work. Our property is like a huge dog park! We have 3 treed and open fully fenced acres with a doggie door, covered deck, agility course, a pond for those that like to swim, plenty of toys, dog beds, room to dig and play and friendly dogs to play with. We have dogs, cats, and ducks (which are always penned up safely). We cannot take aggressive dogs or cat aggressive dogs. If your dog is reactive to other dogs we are unable to accommodate them. * About me I owned a grooming shop for 17 years and worked at a vet clinic for 15 years. I have also worked with multiple dog rescues over the years. I have experience with special needs dogs and those that require extra TLC. I only use positive reward based training. * Boarding For this option, your pup(s) will be staying in my home. I have dogs myself , so I ask for advanced notice of at least 72 hours before drop off because dogs coming last minute can be disruptive to our home life. Due to an unfortunate circumstance and privacy concerns with a potential client I no longer allow people inside my home for meet and greets. We can do meet and greets in our fenced back yard if you so choose. Meet and greets are not required. We often offer a trial day in lieu of a meet and greet as dogs act different when their owners leave and we want to see the true dog. I can only take a max of 2 dogs at once. If from different families I must know they dogs before they are allowed to interact with another family’s dog and be similar in age, temperament. All male dogs over a year must be neutered. No female dogs in heat. Dogs should be crate trained in the event of an emergency. If you have a puppy we can work on gentle crate training by feeding the pup in a crate and letting them out immediately after. The crate is always associated with something positive. We are not a kennel, this is our home and everyone’s safety is top priority. Your dog will be able to roam the house, sleep on the couch, use a doggie door to go in and out as they please and lots of playtime. We cannot hold spots available for you unless you reserve the spot. I adjust to your dog’s schedule. I do not expect them to adjust to mine. *Other Pets For this service we can also pet sit for more then just dogs. Caged animals such as birds, reptiles and small animals have their own private room. We have experience with snakes, bearded dragons, a variety of geckos, sugar gliders, rats, guinea pigs, bunnies, axolotls, and birds. Caged animals are NEVER allowed to intersect with other species or other animals they did not come with. We can feed, interact with and clean cages as necessary. The price is the same as our dog boarding fees due to the extra attention exotics need. **all pick ups must be no later than 6pm. If you are ruining late the dog or small animal can stay another day and you can pick up in the morning. *Housesitting- I do weekends only* For this option, I will provide drop ins during the day and stay overnight in your home. A meet and greet is required for this so we can go over food, dog’s or cats access in your home, potty break times, meds needing to be given etc. I can walk your dog during drop in times or play with your kitty. I am dog and human CPR/First Aid certified. I can do any type of medications your pet needs as well as feed any diet your dog or cat needs. *Doggie Daycare- Pick ups must be no later than 6pm. Your dog will have access to our huge backyard, they can swim in our pond or play in the baby pool. We have a small agility course and we do lure coursing. Plenty of my own dogs to run and play chase with. Due to our schedules we have the flexibility to give pets the time and energy they require. We don't use any harsh chemicals or pesticides on our property. We use beneficial nematodes in our yard to prevent fleas and other pests. My husband and I work opposite shifts so someone is always home. We have a doggie door so even the youngest pups can get outside to use the potty when they need. Our deck is separately fenced from our yard so they are always supervised. I treat all pets like family. I worked as a dog groomer and a vet tech for many years so I have a lot of experience. We can tailor the experience to fit your pup’s needs if necessary. While I do work, my husband and I work opposite shifts and my teenager does online school so someone is always home. We tailor our schedule to fit your dog’s needs. Dogs are welcome on our couch and we also have various dog beds for their comfort. My dogs are part of our family and your dogs will be cared for the same way.

“Cady did an amazing job with our boy! She even hung out with the cats and cleaned up a mess she didn’t have to. Highly recommend her and will use her again.”
