Loving International Petsitters

Pet care experience

I (mom/Deborah) have had pets since I was a child, and owned my own first cat when I was in my 20's. 30 years later, we've had 5 cats and 1 dog and lots of rescues that were re-homed. Petsitting/House Sitting (In Your Home): 6 years ago, as a family we started petsitting internationally - we have petsit in 12 countries and cared for more than 120 family pets. What's different about about us is we petsit in your home as a family (mom and 2 teen girls). The girls are homeschooled so we are at home virtually all day to care for your pets allowing them to keep their exact happy and stress-free routines while you are away. In-Home Visits/Dog Walking: When it comes to home visits and dog walks, we are flexible and available to meet your furbabies needs and schedules. We have lots of reviews on our international petsitting forum that we would be happy to share.

Deborah is absolutely amazing! For the first time EVER I didn’t worry about my kitty while we were away on vacation. She did such an amazing job looking after our Cat as well as our home. I highly recommend her and her family! We will definitely be using her again! Thank you Deborah!

Deborah was great! We needed someone to check in on our kitten for a few days. He was exactly what she needed. We met her in advance and, while we were away, she fed him, played with him and cleaned the cat litter. Definitely recommend!

I can’t say enough about Deborah! This was our first experience leaving the dogs with someone other then family. Deborah made sure the dogs got everything they needed and even added some bonus walks and adventures for them. The pups were happy and content. She sent us pictures and updates and was really easy to communicate with! I would for sure entrust her to watch the pups again. She made this experience so easy and worry free.

Safety, trust & environment

Because we travel internationally, we offer overnight (24hr) petsitting in your home. Your pets get to remain comfortable in their own home environment and maintain their schedules they are used to. Pets who are able to stay in their own home are more stress-free and happy when they are in their familiar and trusted environments, we simply come in and replicate your schedule. Plus, they also get triple amounts of love and affection from the 3 of us! In home visits for dog walking and cat visits include a basic home check to ensure your home's security. We will walk your dog(s) for specified durations, play with your dogs and cats, scoop litter, refresh water bowls and feed according to instructions. Lots of love, attention, belly rubs and play. We work hard to gain your pets trust. We've had many tell us their pets are shy or anti-social and within hours/days the pets are sitting with us watching TV to the pets looking for us days after we've left. We promise your furbabies will be loved and spoiled with attention.

Information Deborah W. would like to know about your pet

How long of a service are you booking? Do you have a preference to how the time is split up for walking and playing? Is the dog aggressive towards other dogs or children? Do you walk in an off-leash park? Does the dog have good recall to commands? Do any of the pets have health concerns?

A typical day

Housesitting (In Your Home); For in-home stays we will get up with a quick outside potty break while we get dressed and have my morning coffee. Then we will take a morning walk, feed, refresh water and play. During the day, dog will have either multiple backyard potty breaks or a couple shorter walk potty breaks (puppies even more frequently based on age). Then a final longer walk in the evening. There will be lots of playtime throughout the day, we are staying with them so they will have constant companionship. For cat care, morning feedings and scooping litter along with some love and play throughout the day. In the evening feeding again and scoop again. Cats and dogs will be brushed daily, if they allow us along with any other grooming requirements. Drop In/By Visits & Dogwalking: Daily dog walks and in-home visits (no overnight stays) we will provide dog walking, litter scoop, feeding, refreshing water and playtime with each pet.
