House Sitting Sharon

“Christine is a down-to-earth person who is easy to talk with and pays attention to important details. At our meet & greet, she asked good questions that reflected her experience and commitment to making both pets and their owners feel comfortable with her. My young adult cat Suki had never been left alone with someone she didn’t already know. In my absence, however, Christine eased her way into Suki’s territory by setting the right balance between showing her some quiet attention and giving her the time and space she needed to adjust and come out of her shell. The photos Christine sent me proved that once she had won Suki over, the little kitty was her sweet, affectionate self and the two of them had a delightful time together! I will be asking Christine to Suki-sit in my house again!”

“We recently hired Emily to stay overnight with our two dogs and our super senior cat while we were out of town. We’re very careful and selective about who cares for our pets, so it says a lot that we felt very comfortable with her. Emily was attentive, reliable, and followed our requested schedule — from feeding timelines to bathroom breaks and walks. She was great about keeping us informed and sent pictures throughout her stay. It was clear she genuinely cared about our animals and took her responsibility seriously. When we returned home, we could tell our pets were well cared for. As a thoughtful touch, she even left homemade biscuits for us, which was incredibly kind. We would absolutely trust her with our pets again.”

“Sofia was great! We felt really happy with her care for our dog Tanda. We requested very last minute and she was so quick to respond and help us out. Would recommend!”

“Janice is amazing! She took such great care of our 2 Great Danes, our cat, and our home during our house sitting booking. She treated them with so much care and attention we were completely at ease during our trip. Thank you so much!!”

“Really grateful to’ve found such a great sitter! Super communicative and of course most importantly, great with our dogs. Felt safe leaving them and our home in her care.”

“Sam is by far the best cat sitter I’ve ever hired. She was extremely dedicated to looking after my older cat. Sam is a real cat whisperer - even though my cat is pretty nervous and skittish around people, she absolutely adores Sam and showed her belly in most picture that Sam sent! Sam sent updates multiple times per day, sent some of the best pictures I’ve ever seen of my cat, and was so dedicated to my cat’s care. I’ve been worried about my cat’s eating because of her gastroenteritis, and Sam told me every day whether my cat had eaten or not. Sam even put treats in with my cat’s wet food to coax my cat to eat her new, vet-prescribed food. Sam is such a wonderful, caring and extremely capable pet sitter - I’ve never felt so calm being away from my cat! I’m so grateful that Sam is our regular, most trusted pet sitter.”

About: I am a freelance content writer and artist picking up odd jobs in mid-life while working on writing my book, caring for my partner, and trying to give back to the world. I’ve grown up with cats and dogs my whole life and am the first person that friends, colleagues and acquaintances call when they need pet-sitter. I have my own 5-year-old Great Pyr / Catahoula mix who has endless amounts of energy, a quirky sense of humor and is my very best friend. I also call Sgt. Pepper (a 16 lb, 16-year-old Mini Pin / Poodle mix) my dog because he is such a beloved member of our family, but technically he belongs to my mom and lives with her in Nevada so I make special trips to see them both as often as I can! I’ve helped house train puppies, trained my own dogs, walked both chihuahua-sized dogs and Great Danes, babysat for pit bulls and other rescues with high anxiety who need special care and attention around other people and animals, and have also cared for sick cats and dogs, including cooking special meals for them, giving saline injections to a cat with kidney disease, and administering meds and therapeutic treatments for sick and/or senior cats and dogs. I’ve also had to wash a few dogs down with Tecnu after getting sprayed by skunks (!) and tended to lots of belly aches, bug bites and other mild issues that can befall any kind of pup. I genuinely love spending time with dogs of all kinds and think they are the greatest blessing on earth. I would love to offer care, attention, love, exercise and snuggles for your dog when you need extra help :) I am a freelancer so I work completely on my own schedule. I can make time for walks, check-ins, feedings and more anytime throughout the day and into early evening (preferably before 9pm). I come to your home to care for your pet. I understand that different pets will have different needs so we can talk beforehand and agree on what is best for your pet! I am open to making multiple visits per day for feeding and attention, staying at the house for a certain amount of hours as needed, walking your pet (willing and able to do both long, strenuous walks/hikes or short jaunts around the neighborhood), playing games with them, training exercises and even taking them to a local dog park to run if they enjoy that. I have my own dog at home and she absolutely loves other dogs and getting to play when she has visitors.

“We are so grateful to have found Kelly and Nabil! They are incredibly attentive, caring, and down to earth. We are already planning another trip knowing our dog will have such amazing care.”

“Trista stayed overnight with our fur babies. She was so good with our 3 dogs. She put our mind at ease. She sent updates and pictures throughout the day. The pups were happy too :) Will definitely book again.”

About: Im a veterinary technician that is fear free and cpr certified. I can administer medications, and have expirience with senior pets. Pocket pets are also in my realm of experience. I am able to sit any time as I can commute from your location to work. The only hinderance would be if you are further from my job mid day visuts may not be possible Currently I care for my 16 year old cat that has hyperthyroidism. In my past I have owned and cared for dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits, leopard geckos, bearded dragons, and fish

About: I just got out of the Army after 8 years and had my best friend with me the whole way, a German Shepard named Mac. Sadly he passed about a year ago and I would love to have a new companion but I'm going back to school in the fall and need to focus on that. However, in the mean time I have the whole summer free to care for other's dogs. I live in a house with a large, fenced in yard and all the free time in the world. I'd love to have a dog to play with a d go on walks with. I currently have no obligations until January so I can devote 100% of my time and energy to your pup. Their care will be my full-time job. I have a large, fenced in yard and no other pets or children. I live on a large street perfect for walks and near the rail trail too.

“Sophie took wonderful care of our two kittens while we were away on a long trip. Since it was our first time using a sitter, we were pretty nervous but she was very communicative and attentive which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell that she was going above and beyond to make sure they had lots of love and attention. When we came home, it was clear they had been well cared for—happy, healthy, and content. We’re so grateful and would love for Sophie to watch our girls again sometime.”

“Mair kept me updated and informed while I was away, wirh updates, pictures and videos, which I appreciated, especially since this was my first time away from my dog.”

“Brenna was an amazing pet sitter for us. We have two dogs, both seniors, and one with significant health issues. It is always hard to leave him but had our son's wedding in Canada to attend. Brenna sent constant updates and photos to ease our mind while away. They were very well cared for and loved. I would use Brenna again in a heart beat!”

Nadine S.

“No worries your dog is with a superstar! He was accommodating and loving towards our very senior Maltese and he also took time to reach out and update. Hes great with my lab too!!! He is fantastic! Highly would recommend and rebook. Very caring individual”

“Elena was an absolute godsend for our pets!!! She came over a few days before she housesit - and the dogs were nervous at first, but she sat on the floor with them and waited until they were comfortable - and basically, she's the dog whisperer. When she came for the housesit, the dogs recognized her and were excited to see her. She sent pictures and let us know how they were doing the perfect amount, and the pictures she sent were some of my favorites that I have of them now! I didn't worry at all while we were away, and that is 100% thanks to Elena. Her kindness, patience, and flexibility, among a million other amazing qualities, make Elena the only person I would ever want to housesit for us in the future!”

“Priscilla has taken our dog on weekly walks and also just watched her while we were gone for our wedding. We were so grateful to have her watch our dog and couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. She is genuinely the best and we knew our dog was in good hands so we didn’t have to stress. She gave us updates and was always responsive.”

Jacquelyn W.

“Alex took excellent care of our dog while we were away for 8 days. She sent frequent picture updates, took her for multiple walks a day, and let us know of any feeding issues. Alex left the house exactly how we left it and even brought in the mail/packages without us asking. We will definitely be asking Alex for more drop in visits and stays in the future!”

“Danielle was an excellent sitter. Sammy had a great time and looked happy and healthy when I returned home from a three-day trip. I will definitely be using her services again soon and recommend to anyone else to do the same.”
