Our dogs are our kids!

Pet care experience

Hi! My husband, David, and I have been pet and house sitting for over 15 years! We both love animals and bond with every pet in our care. Because we can work as a pair and share the duties, we can ensure that each pet's needs are taken care of at all times. For example, we have one client with a new special needs rescue dog that the client does not like to be left alone for more than 2 hours at a time. Being a team, we can work it out between our two schedules so that he is always supervised and loved. We are conscientious, responsible and respectful. We are dog parents ourselves and love our little ones more than anything else in the world, so we understand the importance of knowing the babies are in safe, secure hands. We will treat your furry friends and your home as if they were our own, with kindness and respect.

Lita has been caring for my cats and my house while I travel for the last four years. I trust her implicitly with not only making sure everything in the house is in order, but also that my pets are well-cared for and loved while we are away. It's hard to leave your fur babies, but a little easier knowing that they will be in the best hands possible. I cannot recommend Lita more highly. And if you try to book her when I need to book her, I may just fight you for her! All kidding aside, Lita is awesome. I've recommended her to friends of mine, who also could not be more pleased with her services.

I had some health issues this year and had to go in and out of the hospital. Lita was recommended to me and I was relieved to have her taking care of my dog and two cats. Lucky for me she was available. She was always there when she said she was going to be and took extra time to build a loving/trusting relationship with my nervous little rescue dog, who grew to love her. She sent pictures daily of their activities and they were happy and healthy when I returned home. She is completely trustworthy and I will always use her when I need a house/pet sitter. Highly recommended.

I have experience with sitting dogs, cats and more. I am happy to care for any kind of pet.

A typical day

One reason we always prefer to stay with pups in their own home is that consistency is important. Dogs already miss you just when you go away to work for the day and they miss you even more when you're gone overnight. So, if the time away can have as few unknowns as possible, I think that is best for the dog. They will always be more comfortable in their own home, in their own beds where they feel safe and secure. We love to play with playful dogs or simply chill out with the mature ones who like to lounge. We do our best to be as available as possible and spend as much time with the pet as desired. We can be firm but gentle with unruly dogs and have good instincts about how to handle interactions while out on walks.
