House Sitting in Mead

“Patricia is our #1 Rover because of the way our nervous dogs come out of their shells with her. She sends pictures of them all piled on the bed together with her - that's how we know that they feel comfortable and safe, and that means the world to us when we're away. She also makes the extra effort to make sure the house is clean and tidy when we come home (we clean before we leave but I swear it looks better when we come back), and that's just an added bonus.”

“Brooklyn has been amazing in caring for our dogs, cats and guinea pig. We have used her for many walks And now a multi day/night trip. She kept us updates and stayed at our house which was a big relief to know our dogs were taken care of even during the night.”

“So grateful for Brittany helping me out with a 10 week old puppy when I had to take this work trip!! that is a BIG ask and she really came through for us! Luckily my Bosco boy already loves her too!”

“Shawn took great care of my 2 dogs and 2 cats; especially my one dog who is reactive towards other dogs. He gave updates and pictures and made me feel better about leaving them with someone while I went home. He also was super helpful and flexible by being able to watch them an extra day when my flight had to be rebooked to the next day due to delays. If I didn’t travel for work (I’m only here for another 2 weeks) I would absolutely rebook with Shawn.”

Emily S.

“AJ is fantastic! Took perfect care of our fur babies and our home! I’ve never before come home after vacation when pet sitter stayed and found the house cleaner then I left it! We are not slobs, but AJ left no trace! I am thrilled to have AJ as a resource every time we travel. Best pet sitter ever!”

“It can be hard to leave your pup with someone new, but Melisa put our minds at ease. Even after meeting a pup with many "quirks," Melisa was confident about spending the weekend with her. She sent updates all weekend and we came home to the happiest puppy. We would absolutely use her again!”

About: While my experience caring for pets professionally is limited, I worked in healthcare for a short stint out of high school, delivering medical oxygen supplies to peoples homes, and setting up the equipment for patients. One of my favorite parts of the job was when the patients had pets! Frequently, their pets warmed up to me as soon as I was welcomed in to do my work, which would always brighten up my day. Of course, I have pets myself. I've been caring for my cat, Winslow, for about a year and a half now. He's fantastically affectionate and he's been an excellent companion in my home. I also help my parents with their cats, since I live with them at the moment. As one last note, at my last job I attained a CPR certification from the American Heart Association. Human focused, of course, but I stilled learned the signs of a crisis in living beings and what to do when life hangs in the balance. I hope never to have to use said skills, but if a pet has a delicate health situation, I am equipped to get them the help they need if things take a turn for the worse. I am between jobs at the moment, so my schedule is about as open as it gets. I have my own responsibilities to tend to with my cat, but my parents can take care of him if your furry friend needs me around all day. First things first is a meet and greet to make sure your pet is comfortable around me. Once your pet and I have made each-other's acquaintance, we'll talk about how you usually go about caring for them yourself so we don't throw a wrench in their habits. If you're having me spend time in your home, we'll talk about how you expect me to conduct myself while house sitting.

About: - I work from home allowing for flexibility - I've house/dog sat for 10+ days at a time - I foster puppies in my free time, I’m comfortable with potty training and basic training - I’ve had experience with senior dogs and cats (administering medication orally and topically) - I have two dogs (medium and large) and a senior cat of my own Working from home allows me to have flexibility in my day. Since the weather is nice I’d love to walk some pups or play fetch! I am happy to have your puppy stay with me at my house if needed, I have a fenced yard and two dogs to keep them busy! I’m no stranger to staying at other houses either and I’m happy to do so! We’ll play with some toys, watch some movies, maybe some snacks and cuddle time?! I love to send photos and keep you updated on your pup!

“Emily was amazing house sitting for us! She’s so patient with our crazy dogs and left the house in great condition! She was great at providing updates everyday and so easy to get ahold of. We will definitely book with her again!”

“Claire was super communicative and we could tell she gave our dogs the proper care but also love we want for them with a sitter. She respected our space impeccably, leaving it even better than she found it.”

“We had an amazing experience with Logan while she watched our dog Murph for a week while we were out of town. She sent regular updates and photos, which really put our minds at ease. It was clear Murph was happy and well cared for the entire time. Knowing he was in such good hands made our trip that much more enjoyable. We highly recommend Logan — she’s responsible, thoughtful, and truly great with pets!”
