House Sitting in Ijamsville

“Deborah did a wonderful job of taking care of our dogs and tortoise while we were gone. She sent photos and videos everyday and she went above and beyond by cleaning up before we returned, collecting mail, and making our dogs feel extra loved. I highly suggest Deborah for your dog sitting needs.”

“Bree was wonderful! And most important, Sophie was a happy girl and well taken care of. Bree’s experience is such a plus and, after just a short time, we felt comfortable and assured that Sophie would be in good hands. We will definitely use her services again.”

“Abbigail was amazing! She gave my fur babies so much love and attention! She sent frequent updates with pictures and videos. I’m beyond happy with her services! If you’re looking for a great sitter for your furry friends, she’s definitely the girl for you!”

“We absolutely loved having Madeline watch our two pups while we were on vacation! I am guilty of leaving too many instructions sometimes, and she made me feel at ease before and during our time away. She also cleaned the house, washed all linens, and left the house in perfect shape. We’d be honored to have her as a sitter again!”

About: Thanks for stopping by our page. We are a family that loves animals. We love visiting zoos and sanctuaries. Currently, we have one pyredoodle, a fish, and a bearded dragon. This account was created for my son. He is 13 and will be the main caretaker of your fur baby. This is the best way for him to play with lots of animals and more importantly learn responsibility. He has been wonderful and gets so excited every time he learns he'll be pup sitting again. He has 5 consistent repeat clients and loves their fur babies just as he does his brother (our pyredoodle is his brother :) ) Of course, my husband and I will always be supervising.😊 All updates and arrangements are made through me. All earnings go directly to my son. As we aren't on Rover to generate an income our profile may be different from other sitters. Please review the below to ensure we are the right fit for you and your fur baby. *We watch one dog at a time. This is because we want my son to enjoy each and every pup he puppy sits. We want your pup to receive all the love and attention we would want our own pup to receive if we were away. *If you have 2 dogs and one is fairly laid back please message me and to see if we can accommodate your needs. *We don't use kennels unless requested for pets that are already potty-trained *Puppies or dogs not potty trained please bring diapers that have holes for the tails. *Puppies or dogs not potty trained will be kenneled at night if diapers are not available. This is to assist with potty training as it's very important at this age. We have a large crate here we set up for your pup to use. *We do not require a meet and greet if your pup gets along with other animals as we watch one dog at a time and only animals that are friendly with other animals. *We have a pyredoolde born Nov. 2020 who lives inside. He's playful and loves everyone! He is very skittish and submissive to other dogs. The only worry with him is if your dog bullies him he will jump on my lap and he's so big it hurts! lol *WHAT TO BRING Please bring your pup's leash, food bowl, food, and any comfort toys they will need. A brush is great too as we brush our boy every evening and will brush your pup too. - We have learned from previous visits most of the pups arriving prefer to eat and drink out of our dog's food and water bowl. That is fine too! :) *UPDATES I try to text daily updates with a picture usually in the evenings. If it's an extended stay I may do it every other day. Please discuss with me your needs and I'll do my best to accommodate. In short, if your looking for a place your pup can stay and be treated like one of the family we may be the right fit for you. We'll treat your pup just like our own.😊 I work remotely and can easily accommodate most routines. My son goes to an online school and is here to play as soon as he finishes school in the morning. Our yard is fenced in with a vinyl fence. It's almost 1/2 acre. We do let our pup out by himself. If your pup digs under fences or is a Houdini that can climb over a 6ft please let us know. We let your pup stay in the house and roam the same as we do our pup. Also, we do not allow our dog on the furniture. He knows to stay off, but don't make a big deal out of it if your pup is more comfortable while they're with us.

“Natalie was so great! I didn’t have to worry for a second that my dog wasn’t being taken care of. Very kind and obviously cared to make sure everything was going okay. The best, will book again!!! 💖”

About: Most familiar with cat care all the way from little kittens to senior cats. I do dog walks and dropin visits on the Wag app and have a perfect 5 star rating for every job I have done and am looking to expand my clientele here. I absolutely love being able to care for pets and see how happy they are when we go for walks or play fetch. I also dogsit my family's golden doodle who is learning tricks and has anxiety around people. I have a part time job and do contract work on my own schedule so I can fit pet care around my current schedule easily. I intend your home space to be the same as you left it when you return from your trip with a happy pet waiting for you.

“Holli was great with our pup, Leo! She has great communication and is very caring. We did not have any worries while we were away for the weekend and felt confident that Leo was in good hands!”

“Sarah was amazing. She was so attentive to all of my animals. Great with sending updates and my dogs loved her. We could not have enjoyed our vacation without her taking such great care of our furbabies. Your animals could not be in better hands. Will absolutely continue to use Sarah.”

Stephanie C.

“Highly recommend. Brianna stayed at our place for over a week and took care of everyone (2 large dogs, 2 cats, fish, houseplants, and the garden). She was easy to communicate with, very responsive, and it was such a relief to have her housesit while we were out of the country. I will book with her again in the future!”

About: I've had dogs of all sizes my whole life. From a Yorkie to a 180 pound Saint Bernard! I have taken some basic dog handling care classes and even work in the local shelter with the cats. I'm currently working full time, so I would show up in the morning to check on the animal, during my lunch break if I can, and once I'm off work I would show up as well. Every visit with the animal, I check their eyes, nose, and ears to make sure they aren't getting sick and I also take the morning to care for their food and water needs.

About: I have been involved in several volunteer groups for pets and rescue organizations. I’m sure I could help your peace of mind when you need. I’m currently working for Rover full time. I’m looking to make this a career path and I’m trying to earn more than happiness from Rover. My apartment has a private entrance and I have parks and trails to take them near me that are secure. I have multiple options for boarding.

About: Since I was a child I have been around dogs and cats. They are always part of the family not just a pet. All pets will be treated like they are my own and I will give them love and attention. I currently have 3 small dogs that I have raised since puppies. I also have experience with walking and sitting large dogs for family. Whether they are puppies or senior dogs I will take care of them and treat them with love and care. My days are usually split up between myself and my wife taking care of our dogs. We keep them on a schedule with feedings and trying to take them out as much as possible. I am always willing to walk dogs and keep any routine or schedule needed for them. Taking care of dogs is a daily routine for me. I have 3 dachshund that I split time with my wife taking care of them. We love to take them outside and either play with them or go for walks. They are like children to us and will always see them that way. Keeping up feeding schedules and potty time is always a must to keep them full and happy.

About: I have a big love for life and enjoy being active and energetic, so I will make sure to keep your pets happy and healthy :) I can house sit any evening, and walk dogs or attend to pets as needed throughout the day. I'm in between jobs, so am quite flexible at the moment. I don't have a space to keep your animals, but can offer to watch them in your home or take them out in the neighborhood :)

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life! I was the main caretaker. They were always by my side, whether that meant for walks, fetch, or bedtime. I am currently enrolled in grad school but I am willing to be flexible with my schedule. I can make time whenever, whether it’s the morning or evening I will care for your dog like he is my own!! I will cater to their needs and do what is most comfortable for them and you .. your fur baby will be in amazing care!
