I’ve been house-sitting and caring for dogs for over a decade. Most recently, I helped care for a sweet 13-year-old Aussie mix named Rosie. She still loves her backyard zoomies and long walks but sometimes needs extra comfort at night when her parents are away. I was happy to be there to help her feel safe and relaxed. In my own life, I have a 4-year-old Heeler/Terrier mix named Sweet Dee, who’s my partner in crime and a constant source of laughs (and lessons). Sweet Dee does not accompany me to pet-sitting unless it’s specifically approved by the pet parents—your pets come first. For transparency, I work full-time remotely for the State of Colorado. About 90% of the time, I’m working from home, but there are occasional days when I get called into the office for a standard workday (up to 8 hours). If that ever overlaps with a booking, I make sure pets are comfortable with that routine and discuss options like longer morning walks, check-ins from a backup sitter if needed, or anything else to ensure they’re happy and cared for. I treat every home and every pet as if they were my own.
