House Sitting Paige Bar

About: I’ve always been around animals ever since I was little- horses, goats, chickens, cats, dogs- you name it! I love animals and taking care of them. The company of a set of paws is one of the most comforting and rewarding things. I know how much a bond between a pet parent and pet means, and will go above and beyond to make sure an owner is content when away from their fluffy family member. I promise to ensure peace of mind that they are cared for and happy, whether it’s a wagging tail or a purring tummy. I’ve been pet-sitting and walking for my neighbors since I was young, and care for each pet as if it were my very own. I’m currently almost entirely available! Any walks or home check in times needed, I can do them! I’m happy to go for morning and evening strolls with a pup, or check in on a kitty a time a day or more to make sure your fur baby is happy and healthy. I care for clients’ pets by walking their dogs, feeding pets, administering medication such as flea medication, cleaning litter boxes and lawns, and more as required.

“Shannon was great she kept me updated with photos and texts throught the sit. Kept my Jasper dog all calm and happy. My house was clean and perfect when we returned home.”

“Gloria was wonderful with my dogs. She stayed in touch via text and pictures. Jake and Arlo were very well cared for. I would definitely use her again.”

About: Very well, experienced in dog training techniques, pet store etiquette, a variety of small pet needs, as well as, infant, elderly & service animal special care. I’m an early riser with a balanced indoor/ outdoor schedule- perfect for animal health. Mornings & afternoon exercise play a large part in my active lifestyle here, too! This property also sits across the street from several beautiful trails that I explore frequently, though, our personal wooded acreage is welcomed to furry guests, too. We have two cats that are very friendly & open to other company, though can easily be separated depending on your personal needs. We also offer spare rooms to customize for their temporary stay. Wind-down times are in place before bedtimes, though there’s rarely been an animal that wasn’t exhausted after a good day here!

“Garrett was great! Kept me updated, kept a log of all pottys/walks/and food, and was very easy to work with. Highly recommend.”

About: Hi! I provide long-term, in-home house and pet sitting across the U.S. for homeowners who want their space handled consistently—not checked on, but actually lived in and maintained. I specialize in 1+ week stays and travel intentionally for sits, so I’m not juggling multiple local clients or rushing in and out. When I’m booked, your home is my focus. I work with residential homes and household pets only (no farms or large animals). I've done my time - hay is not my friend. Services: Long-term, in-home house sitting (2+ weeks minimum, negotiable if you're near the prior site) Overnight pet care (dogs, cats, household pets) Daily routines: feeding, medications, walks, litter Home care: mail, plants, trash, light cleaning, upkeep Full-time presence to maintain a lived-in, secure home This is not drop-in care—this is full coverage while you’re away. Experiance: I grew up on a hobby farm, so responsibility and animal care were part of everyday life early on. Now, I focus specifically on home environments and household pets, not farm or livestock care. My background in running businesses and managing operations means I’m organized, detail-aware, and dependable—especially in environments that require trust and consistency. I adapt quickly to new homes and follow established routines closely. Why should I hire you? Because I’m built for this type of arrangement. I travel specifically for longer sits—your home isn rarely one of several stops I don’t need supervision or micromanaging I communicate clearly and consistently - there might even be some pet pictures in your phone :) I handle issues calmly and practically You’re not coordinating with a sitter—you’re handing off your home to someone who can run it. Any special qualifications or training? Strong independent decision-making Comfortable managing homes solo for extended periods High attention to detail and respect for personal spaces Calm, steady, and reliable I’m also comfortable learning specific pet routines, medications, or household preferences. What’s your availability? North America availability Minimum stay: 2 weeks Open to extended and repeat sits Travel-ready and flexible with advance notice Once booked, I commit fully to that stay. Personality / Fit I’m calm, observant, and self-sufficient. Not high-drama, not flaky. Best fit: Homeowners traveling for extended periods People who want consistency without micromanaging I also work with executives who are in and out and need a temporary house guest (under 6 months) Not a fit: Less than 10 days Farms, livestock, or horse care (this can possibly be vaived with a conversation - I am very familar with animals) Your home stays in order, and your pets get real attention—not just care. I provide steady, full-time presence in your home. As a digital nomad, I work remotely, which means your pets aren’t left alone for long stretches and their routines stay consistent. I’m not rotating between clients or dropping in—I’m there, living in the space and keeping things running normally. I grew up around a wide mix of animals, so I’m comfortable adjusting to different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Some pets want constant attention, some want space, and some need structure—I meet them where they are and follow your routines closely, including feeding, medications, and daily habits. I also enjoy being outdoors, so walking dogs and getting animals outside is a natural part of the day, as long as that aligns with what they’re used to. It’s not forced—it’s just part of how I operate. You can expect a calm, low-drama environment. I tend to be observant and consistent, which animals respond well to. I’ll keep communication clear and reasonable—updates and photos as agreed—without overwhelming you while you’re away. Your home will be respected and maintained. I keep things clean, organized, and handled like they matter. And beyond all of that, I genuinely enjoy animals. This is how I get my “pet fix” while traveling, so I’m not just checking boxes—I actually like spending time with your pets. Your pets are the priority while you’re away. I keep a close, consistent eye on them and pay attention to small changes in behavior, appetite, or energy so issues are caught early, not after they’ve escalated. I maintain a calm, predictable environment and follow your routines closely to reduce stress and keep things stable. I’m comfortable handling medications and will administer them exactly as instructed, whether that’s daily dosing, timed schedules, or more specific routines. If something feels off, I act quickly and communicate clearly—using your preferred vet, emergency contacts, and instructions. It's also important for you to know that I grew up in a rural (farm) envirnment. and other animals are on the table - currently watching a home with 2 cats, 2 dogs, 2 goats and 9 chickens. Haying and watering are fine, but I don't feel capable of cow milking, horse riding, etc. You can expect a steady, attentive presence focused on keeping your pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time you’re gone.

“Great job, I will use them again.”

About: I have had fur babies of one kind or another all of my life. I also have experience in working for both an emergency vet clinic and a normal one. I also did a year of volunteer work with the county animal shelter. From these I have learned animal first aid and how to recognize an emergency. I am well trained in taking care of puppies and kittens. I am comfortable being around dogs of all sizes. We had birds when I was growing up and so have experience with them as well. I currently have a work from home position, that allows me to make my own schedule. I am available 24/7 to take care of your fur babies and will schedule my other work around your needs. My priority will always be to give your pets my full attention. For pet sitting I follow whatever rules you normally keep for your pets. For drop by appointments, I will follow whatever your instructions are. For the first couple of visits I take things slow and build trust and a bond. I am working on having a fenced in yard so I can offer boarding and day care. My fur babies are very spoiled, and sleep with me. But again when I am with your babies I follow your rules.

“Ariel was great with communicating about Angus while we were out of town. Came back to a very happy pup and a nicely clean house. She was also easily accommodating when I realized I needed to add a day to our booking. Will definitely consider her again.”

About: I was raised with Dogs my whole life! My aunt was a groomer so I've been around all sorts of animals. I've personally owned/fostered, 2 labs, a pit/boxer, a french bull dog, 2 Chihuahuas and more. I've even trained a bit too. I've decided that this is something I'd like to do full time,or as much as possible, I love dogs and if I can help their owners out as well, I think it's a win win I have a huge back yard, high fences, and plenty of running room, all tho they might get a bit dirty(not currently accepting at my house). As for at your home if you tell me what needs to be done I will follow the list and provide pictures of it done!

About: I have a lifetime of farm life! I have helped care for many sweet dogs, cats, donkeys, horses, goats, sheep, chickens, turkeys, guinea hens, reptiles, birds and more! I work with integrity and I communicate very well. I'm well rounded in my experiences and qualities provided. I'm confident I can meet anyone's needs as far as great animal care. You'll see many photos i've posted of my sweet white lab-wolf mix, she passed away two years ago. Hank my youngest sons sweet boxer passed away just about five months ago. Losing our family members has been very hard. Taking care of pets has filled my heart with healing love and energy. Pet care is a full time job. I schedule my weeks accordingly. I keep my calendar flexible and I can usually meet anyone's pet needs for the day. I will schedule to meet you and we can walk through the routine your pet needs in your home. I am flexible and can take pets in my car if needed. I'll follow instructions as given and make sure safety is my first choice.

“Laura is wonderful!! We feel so lucky to have found her, she has a very special way with animals, and ours loved her. Highly recommend Laura, and hope she will sit for us many times in the future.”

“Melissa was great! She watched our new puppy Bacall and our other dog Bogey. She was always communicating and sending pics and videos of our doggies. We loved her so much that she is going to be checking on our doggies while we are at work.”
