House Sitting • févr. 16, 2025

Skylar is amazing! She swooped in & saved the day by agreeing to watch our dog and 2 cats super last minute when a previous Rover bailed on us. She is very communicative and did everything we asked and more! Our dog warmed up to her faster than he’s ever warmed up to any other dog sitter. Skylar sent lots of pics/videos and we were not worried about our pets or our house at all while we were on vacation! Will 100% ask her to watch them again in the future.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment at home and ensure secure, attentive care during visits. Trust and love are at the heart of everything I do.

A typical day

A typical day caring for pets involves plenty of love, attention, and structured routines to ensure they’re happy and well cared for. Here’s how the day might look: 1. Morning: • Start the day with feeding, ensuring the pets get the proper portions and any necessary medications. • Take dogs out for a brisk walk or a backyard play session to burn off energy. For cats, this might mean engaging with toys or interactive activities. 2. Midday: • Spend time socializing with the pets—playing fetch, tug-of-war, or even laser pointer games for cats. • A midday check-in might also include a grooming session, like brushing their fur or cleaning their paws, depending on their needs. 3. Afternoon: • Another round of feeding or treats, if applicable, and refreshing water bowls. • For enrichment, I’d introduce new toys, puzzles, or training exercises to keep their minds active. 4. Evening: • A relaxed walk to wind down the day, followed by cuddle time to make them feel secure. Fun Activities: • Active Play: Frisbee, fetch, or agility-style exercises for dogs; wand toys or tunnels for cats. • Enrichment Games: Hide-and-seek with treats, snuffle mats, or interactive puzzles. • Outdoor Adventures: Visits to dog-friendly parks or safe trails, if allowed. • Pampering: Light massages, brushing, or setting up a cozy nook for relaxation. Ultimately, I tailor each day to the pet’s personality and preferences, ensuring they feel happy, loved, and stress-free. What kinds of activities does your pet enjoy most?
