House Sitting in Lisbon

“Our pup was very happy after her stay with Karen. She was very responsive during her stay, and respectful of our home. We would gladly book again!”

“Keshia was so amazing! She was so communicative while I was away, as an anxious dog parent, I was so appreciative. I would absolutely recommend Keshia! My dog was happy and content when I returned, which reassured me that he was fully taken care of!”

“Very efficient, on time and did a nice job with the pup. Thanks!”

“Victoria took great care of my pup!”

“Charlene did an outstanding job. She communicated with us the entire time supplying pictures and video of our pets. She followed the feeding and caring directions for our cat, chinchilla, bunny and fish perfectly. Our cat, who is somewhat judgmental, loved her. Don’t hesitate to book Charlene”

“Maeve was great! Brought Avo to our wedding venue right on time, stayed close to ensure when we were done taking pictures he could go back to our Airbnb. Then feed him snack and put him to sleep. Wonderful service!”

“Emily was AWESOME. Very communicative upfront and during her stay watching Koby. I came back from vacation to a happy dog and a perfect house. Will 100% rebook the next time I vacation.”

“Wonderful sitter. All of our pets received great attention and care. Will use Betsy again in the future. My 4 legged family was in excellent hands.”

About: I have lived with a dog in my family for as long as I can remember. I have had three dogs (Cherry and Dutty) and am currently petsitting my sister's dog (Thor) on weekday mornings. Thor used to live with me and my family but my sister has recently moved out. I love being around dogs because they show you so much affection without speaking. I always look forward to taking care of my sister's dog. I walk Thor around my neighborhood so he can get some exercise and lead a long healthy life. My sister went to the vet for a check-up and told her he has lost three pounds since I started walking him more :). I also bathe Thor on a monthly basis. My past dog, Dutty, was a smaller dog but I took care of him with the basics such as walking, baths, etc. I was still in my child/adolescent years when Dutty was around. I also have four guinea pigs with two being male (Coconut and Milo) and the other two being female (Peanut and Peanut Jr.). Peanut Jr. is the daughter of Peanut and Milo. Having four guinea pigs is not easy but it has helped tremendously with taking care of dogs. I would say it has made taking care of dogs much easier! I am currently free for most of the week. If you ask for a schedule that I can't attend to, I will let you know. Every day on a weekday, my sister drops off Thor in the morning at our house. Usually, Thor has already been taken out before my sister drops her off but I take him out if that isn't the case. He is also fed in the morning. Thor seems to be very picky with his food so I have to mix up wet food with his dry food. After this, I leave Thor with my mother so I can feed my guinea pigs and clean their cage. They are in a locked room that Thor can't access for their safety. I try to give Thor as much attention as he likes to cuddle and also be around someone. Even when he is sleeping, he prefers that someone is in the same room with him. Sometimes, I have to watch my nephew for a bit because my mother babysits him while my brother and sister-in-law are at work. Thor is usually happy being around my nephew so it all works out! I make sure Thor isn't rummaging through garbage and pick up anything on the floor that is toxic. Since Thor sheds constantly, I always have to clean the floor to keep the house tidy. I try to walk Thor every three hours and I also would go to my backyard to play with him so he can get some sun.

“Amanda was very accommodating with a last minute request! She is a great communicator and spends a lot of love and attention. I am sure my pups are sad when she leaves. Would definitely recommend utilizing Amanda’s services if you get the opportunity!”

“So very pleased with Lacey’s service! She was easy to contact, and she had a great meet and greet with our dogs. She was prompt, courteous, and so knowledgeable with our beloved dogs. You can tell she has a real passion for pet care! She sent texts with pics and updates on how the dogs were doing at each visit. I would recommend her highly to anyone and we will certainly use her again in the future!!!”

About: I have had 3 rescues of my own, all from different sectors of the US, different backgrounds, ages and breeds. I truly wouldnt be who I am today without my furbabies. I have raised my youngest from a few months old as well as provided senior care and sick care to my oldest. My goal is to give every dog the same amount of love I give my dogs. I am familiar with aggressive dogs, bigger dogs, dogs who don’t love leashes and dogs that need special attention. I'm very patient and would love to help care for your dog. This is because I understand the struggle to look for a trusted sitter, especially when life and the unexpected happens. I want you to leave knowing that your dog is in safe hands and will get the love they always deserve! If your dog needs some fun activity, needs a friend on the couch, or just wants a lot of belly rubs and snuggles then you can count on me! I have recently made a career change for the time being. Which allows for my schedule to be far less hectic as I begin to follow my dreams of owning an animal rescue and adoption center one day. Even with my work schedule, I can adjust my schedule to match yours as close or exact as possible. Please don't hesitate to reach out. My babies have their own little home/crate they are in while we are not home. As soon as we are home, they have our entire finished lower level to run around and play as well as our back yard. While caring at clients home I have similar care protocols as well as having fenced in yards and/or runners they can play on. Whatever care you need, you can trust me to follow.

“Hannah is an amazing caregiver! She has many years of experience caring for animals and we trust her very much! She’s the best and we highly recommend!”

“Bekka was just amazing! It was obvious Kinsale and Zetian really took to her. She sent us multiple photos and long updates on how the cats were doing twice a day. She was able to give Kinsale his twice daily insulin shot without any problems. Such a comfort knowing she was taking care of them! Next time we go on a trip we will use her for sure. We highly recommend her!! Donna and Mark”

“Nikki did an overnight with our dog Bella. She was very friendly and personable. I received multiple photos and updates during their time together. I felt great peace of mind knowing Nikki was taking care of our girl. We will book with her again in the future. Bella had the best time with her 🤍”

“Yet again we used Milena to watch our dog in our home and she was amazing. He is very anxious and territorial and she is so patient and understanding with him. She’s like the only person he lets into our house. I so appreciate Milena and love that we can use her to watch Bodie and trust everything will go smoothly!!”

About: Fun, interactive, engaging and safe place for your pets. Experience with all size dogs - happy to accept dogs with medical concerns and special diets. Currently work from home with a flexible schedule which allows for extra time to look after pets, go for walks, keep toileting routines etc. Children and other adult in the home support playtime and engagement with the pets while in our care. Time to care for pets in my home or help with dog walking and check-ins at other homes. Attentive to needs and routine as defined by each pet owner. Dogs allowed on furniture and will be kept busy. Walks, playtime, and naps are a must! We like to have fun and give the same love and attention you would if you were able to be with your pet.

“Truly a pleasure having Brittny watching my cute boy Maxwell, she was well prepared when it came to his medication being taken on time and taking him for a stroll within his constraints. Very professional and communicative as i am worried for my little one, was very impressed and Maxwell loves her as a sitter as well.”

“I have known June for over 25 years. She has had dogs and has always treated them with love and care. I would leave my dogs with her anytime i have that need and know they would be cared for and walked if needed. IN this day and age its good to have a place to drop your dog off at where you can trust the person and do not have to worry about kennel cough or that your pet will not receive attention. June fits this bill and can not recommend a person who fits this category any better then her.”

“Isaac is a cat dad, animal lover, and an all around gentle, considerate person. There are very few people I trust to look after my cats and lizards when I'm away, but Isaac is one of them. He is incredibly quick and easy to communicate with and goes out of his way to send pictures and updates on how the animals are doing. He's even earned the trust of my anxious cat Mumu which is no small feat! I know my animals are in safe hands with Isaac.”
