House Sitting in Johnson Lane

“Having recently moved to the area, and after struggling in our previous homes (Carlsbad, CA and Las Vegas) to find Rover sitters who actually cared for our dogs the way we requested (and paid for), we are delighted that we found Mindy for our first overnight away from the dogs in our new home. Although our dogs don't require 24-hour care, they are used to my husband and I working from home and being around most of the time, and we try not to leave them alone for more than 3-5 hours when we go on family outings. Mindy also works remotely and was happy to commit to hanging out at the house the whole holiday weekend. I usually leave a note for the sitter reiterating everything discussed at the meet-and-greet, but I ran out of time to get one done for Mindy before our camping trip. She remembered everything without the note and was quick to respond to texts alerting her to things I forgot to mention in person. Mindy took photos and videos of the dogs throughout the day to document what they were up to; at my request, she just sent me a compilation video at the end of each day, but I know she's willing to send more frequent updates if that's the owner's preference. On the last day of her stay, Mindy emailed me a summary of her observations over the weekend, including meals, walks, potty habits, and playtime behavior, as well as detailing things she loved about their personalities. Though we were already sold on her as our favorite sitter of all time, this email recap provided a huge sense of assurance that we had left the dogs with someone who really cared for them and paid as much attention to their wellbeing as we do. In the past, we've been able to tell when a sitter hadn't fulfilled their duty of care because the dogs were incredible anxious and clingy upon our return. When we arrived home last Sunday, Mindy was still here, and they dogs were the most relaxed they have ever been after we were away. They were excited to greet us, but quickly went back to happily lazing around the house. We have already booked Mindy for another trip next weekend and hope she's always available when we need her!”

“Kindra in an outstanding dog-sitter! She took time to visit for a meet & greet beforehand, took notes, and made me feel like I wasn't asking too much. I'm very particular when it comes to care for my dog, especially due to his chronic health issues, and Kindra kept his exercise and care routine intact! She was attentive to his health, sent pictures, and updates. She did not shy from his medication routine, either. He was healthy and happy when I came home, which is no small feat. I look forward to booking her more in the future.”

“This was the first time for Alena to take care of Booker and everything went very well. We initially had Alena over for a meet and greet and upon her return a few days later Booker was very happy to see her. Alena even took Booker for a walk which he always enjoys. Alena followed our instructions and communicated when we inquired. We are just visiting Lake Tahoe for the summer and needed a sitter for our 100lb Bernese Mountain dog and Alena did a fantastic job. Looking forward to using her when needed.”

“Denise is amazing!! We've had a hard time finding someone to give our Bernese Mountain Dog the time, care, and attention he needs but Denise has been fantastic with him! She is able to stay at our house full time, which helps with his separation anxiety, and handles his walks with ease. On top of that, she gives him all the love and cuddles he wants. I highly recommend Denise!”

“Leo did a wonderful job with our two dogs! We had a very quick turn around trip and Leo was able to house sit with such short notice was great. Our dogs seemed very happy upon our arrival. Our home was left extremely clean and as we left it. We will definitely book Leo in the future. Thanks Leo!”

“Very grateful for Brittany’s help while we were away. She was diligent, detailed and truly showed she cared. We received daily updates and photos, allowing us to rest assured while away. Thank you Brittany, we recommend her for any pet watching services!”

“Fantastic Jaclyn!!! She helped me in a bind on very short notice. She went out of her way to take care of my little guy while I had a pressing issue. She is caring, compassionate, gentle and kind. She took great care of my buddy. If you need pet sitting assistance, Jaclyn is perfect.”

“I have a special needs dog and Jen is really great at understanding and being extremely patient with him. She provides regular updates putting our mind at ease as well as sending pictures. Highly recommend Jen.”

“John was amazing. Helped out last minute, was full of love for my sweet doggy, communicated clearly, and was super dedicated in how often he checked on my doggy. Look no further for your animal sitting needs!”

I have the ability to separate my yard into 6 different areas at nearly half an acre. I have multiple kennels and some with tops and grooming and bathing equipment. In home day care is heavily screened. Your dog will not have access to the inside of my home, kids, or my pets for in my home day care. Large outdoor area and garage kennels will be fully accessible. Kennels are cleaned with vet rescue which kills parvo. Fresh water in kennels and outside. All are properly sanitized. Health and safety is top priority for everyone. Puppies not fully vaccinated I’ll be in a separate area. Walks, my children will be attending if dogs are child friendly.
