Care for Your Best Friend in Your Home!

Pet care experience

My services include: Overnight boarding: $35 per night (1 dog) - bring their own food $50 per night for 2+ dogs $15 per night for small animals (hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, chinchillas, rats, mice ect.) $10 bath (included with a week or more stay for free) $5 nail trim included free with week or more stay Administer any meds for free Pick up and drop off at owners house before and after vacation - $15 within a 10mi radius (includes both ways) About this sitter: What is better than keeping you pet in the comfort of his or her own home while getting the attention and care they need? Will provide excellent care in your home, in the environment that your loved pet is used to! I have shadowed vets in my area and hope to become a future vet. Comfortable around all dogs! Also, if other pets are present at your house, I have had lots of experience caring for cats, horses, fish, rabbits, and lots of other pets. I also have experience at a local shelter near me working with horses, pigs, goats, dogs, cats, and other small animals! I have letters of recommendation from the rescue if needed. I have done quite a bit of pet sitting over the past couple of years. Also, have taken care of an entire farm with over 15 animals for a week at a time. Why I love dog sitting I have always loved all sorts of animals! I have had a dog in my house for my entire life. They are definitely one of my favorite animals to be around:) Meet my pets I will be fostering a dog so the dogs that I am sitting would be interesting with that dog. If owners are not okay with that arrangement, I can make sure that the dogs are kept separately. My experience administering medication I have had experience administering insulin shots on a pet in the past. I have also shadowed a number a vets around my area and seen many medical procedures. As long as the owners could explain how to administer the medication, I would be more than willing to do it.

This was my first time having someone stay at my house to take care of Pete, and the longest (5 days) I've been away since I got him 4 months ago. I was very anxious about it. Katie was great! She's very calm and confident which helped Pete warm up to her and trust her very quickly. She kept close contact the whole time with text updates and some pics. I felt comfortable that he was happy and well cared for so I could relax and enjoy my vacation. Katie also cleaned up the house, dishes clean and put away, sheets in wash, etc. which was extra nice to come home to. I don't consider that part of the job, so it's really going above and beyond to make the whole experience great. I definitely recommend her, and plan to hire her again.

My family has a small horse farm, complete with lots of dogs, cats and chickens and a vegetable garden. We have had Katie stay and take care of everything several times while we were away on business or vacation. Katie did a superb job ... all the animals were in excellent shape and good moods when we returned; the house was clean and the plants were not drooping. :) I would not hesitate to ask Katie to stay here again.

I do not have any information that I specifically need to know before dog sitting.
