WFH Pet & House Sitter

Pet care experience

Quality pet care shouldn't be so hard to find or blow your budget! That's where I come in. I'm Misti, a work-from-home researcher, writer, academic editor, and nomad. As a nomad, I offer affordable (or even free!) house and pet sitting across the US. Let me help you with your pet care needs, and you can rest assured your pets are happy and healthy while you are away! ​ I provide high quality care at budget-friendly rates. I have experience with cats and dogs and a range of breeds, ages, temperaments, and special needs. I also provide daily updates and photos to ensure you are always in the loop about your pet's wellbeing. I’m regularly available in San Diego, CA; Denver, CO; Boston, MA; and Madison, WI. You can read more about me and my experience on Instagram @mistiontherun

Misti is great. Very reliable and communicative. Olaf always seems very happy in the pics and vid’s and well taken care of when I return. She’s respectful when house sitting and makes traveling often so much easier!

Safety, trust & environment

I am very careful to align my care with each pet’s needs and the desires of the pet parents. I ask all parents to provide information to help the visit go smoothly.

Information Misti J. would like to know about your pet

I would request details concerning house rules (e.g., sleeping on furniture) and behaviors to watch out for like stealing food or being a surprisingly gifted escape artist. Additionally, I would want to know any triggers like noises or other animals. I don’t have any solid breed preferences, but I do prefer that very large dogs (like German Shepherds) be well trained walking on-leash as I have a slightly small stature.

A typical day

I love playing catch or just hanging out and providing a lot of attention. I also love long walks and exploring the neighborhood with my furry friends!

I’m a researcher working fully remote so I can easily accommodate a range of schedules and spend a lot of time at home with your pet while sitting as long as you have Wi-Fi! Because I travel while pet sitting, I am able to offer very affordable rates! Bookings longer than 7 nights are heavily discounted.
