House Sitting in Sixmile

“Here’s a great review you can use for your dog sitter: Review: [Dog sitter’s name] was absolutely amazing! Super reliable, very communicative, and gave my dog lots of love and attention. I got regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”

“I exclusively use Teresa to watch my Wallace. She is perfect in every way. The house is always clean and in great condition. She brings Wallace toys and treats. Just overall perfect. THANK YOU as always!!”

Heidi L.

“Karen was wonderful with the cats and we are so appreciative of her taking care of them and our house while we were gone. It’s such a peace of mind to be able to go away on vacation knowing that everything is taken care of and Karen provided that comfort to us. Thanks again!”

“Betty deserves way more than 5 stars for taking on my group. She had so much fun with them that I think they were a little disappointed that we came home. Everything was spotless, and everyone was well cared for. We definitely recommend Betty, and if we need sitting in the future, we will look for her first.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years, from energetic puppies to giant breeds! I currently have a 4 month old Great Dane named Ozzy, so I’m no stranger to fast-growing pups with big personalities. I also dog-sit regularly for a Great Pyrenees/Border Collie mix, who I’ve cared for since he was a puppy. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I understand the importance of routine, gentle training, and giving each pet the attention and affection they need to feel safe and happy. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just snuggles on the couch, I tailor my care to each dog’s needs. In addition to personal experience, I’ve volunteered at my local animal shelter and worked at a kennel, where I handled dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—including shy rescues, reactive dogs, and those with medical needs. I’ve supported everything from group playtime and walks to feeding, crate training, medication routines and managing multiple pets at once—including cats, rabbits, and birds! Pet care is a part of my daily life—I build my routine around the animals I care for. As a pet parent myself, I’m used to early morning feedings, regular walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles throughout the day. I work from home (or have a flexible schedule), which means I’m able to give pets consistent attention and maintain their usual routines. Whether I’m hosting a dog in my home or visiting pets in theirs, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. I’m also used to adjusting my schedule to fit specific feeding times, potty breaks, walks, and medication if needed. Because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, caring for them never feels like a chore—it’s a meaningful and fulfilling part of my day. Safety is my top priority when caring for your pets. Whether it’s making sure gates and doors are securely closed, using proper leash techniques, or keeping harmful items out of reach, I take every precaution to create a secure environment. I’m trained and experienced in recognizing signs of stress or discomfort so I can intervene early and keep your pet calm and safe. Building trust with both pets and their owners is essential. I approach every new animal with patience and respect, allowing them to get comfortable at their own pace. Communication with owners is open and transparent—I provide regular updates, photos, and feedback to ensure you always feel confident and informed about your pet’s care. I strive to create a calm, loving environment where pets feel at home. Whether in your space or mine, I adapt to their routines and preferences, providing consistency that helps reduce anxiety and supports their well-being.

“Hannah took great care of my pups. She corresponded each day, and shared photo updates. Two of my pups are very very old, and require extra care. She did a great job with them. I also came home to a totally clean house.”

Lauren G.

“Laura took great care of our dog while we were out of town! She was really responsive and easy to work with, and everything was perfect when we got home. Would definitely recommend and will book again!”

About: I've taken care of sick pets who require medicine and very special attention. I'm comfortable with any medication that requires administration via a needle if required as long as I'm given very specific instruction. I am respectful of pets space, but provide a calm comforting demeanor for any cuddly, excitable, or generally lovey pets. Additioanlly, I'm a strong/large individual who can handle pets that are heavy weight or pull strongly on leads. I have special experience taking care of reptiles (specifically snakes and geckos) for 6+ years. I have skills taking care of a varitey of exotic animal species. I'm currently between jobs (but searching), so I have lots of time flexibility to spend with your pet when needed. I do have a generally pretty calm laid-back demanor, but I LOVE to play with a curious kitty or a playful pup and give them all of my attention. I am happy to spend as much time with your pet as you think is neccessary. I love animals, and the pleasure is truly mine. You can trust that I will always be respectful of other people's spaces, and I am not the type of person to take any liberties when it comes to personal property or private spaces. At home, I do live with one cat and two dogs.

“April was really great. She took care of ritz like he was her own. She played with him, gave him treats and loved on him. I would definitely recommend her.”

I love going on walks, cuddling, taking them in the car(if they like it) or whatever you usually do with your pet!

“Emily was very prompt with answering any messages I sent. I was not worried while away and honestly the minimal correspondence kept my mind off of them where usually I worry more but I knew they were fine and she just picked up where we left off then when we got back it was as if we hadn't left and everything here was great! I could tell my babies were happy to see us but also that they were happy anyway, b4 they knew it was us that came in😊”

Kristin T.

“I could tell they were at ease and enjoyed being with her! She was very helpful while staying at our house. I will absolutely request her again!”

A couple years ago I volunteered at a a horse ranch, where I worked with horses, pigs, donkeys, geese, and goats! And starting last year I volunteered at a humane society.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life—everything from farmyard flocks like chickens and turkeys to tiny critters like hamsters. I currently share my home with three Great Pyrenees, a Great Dane/Pyrenees mix, and two cats, so I’m no stranger to managing multiple pets or handling giant breeds with care and confidence. I have experience with: • Large breed handling • Multi-pet households • Senior pet care and mobility needs • Administering medications (oral, topical, supplements) • Basic training and leash work • Crate training and routine-based care • Understanding animal behavior and body language Whether your pet is fluffy, feisty, shy, or senior—I’ll treat them like one of my own. I am currently have open availability through the week and weekends. I have a son that I take to school and pick up from school but I can work around most schedules. When caring for pets in their own home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and maintaining a calm, familiar environment. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, stick to established routines, and make sure pets feel secure and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s a quick walk or an overnight stay, I treat your home and your pets with the utmost respect—just as I would my own. I’m experienced in managing front doors and gates carefully, monitoring pet behavior for any signs of distress or illness, and keeping things clean and tidy. Your pets deserve peace of mind—and so do you. I’m here to provide both.
