House Sitting in Sparks

“JoAnn was wonderful. She took great care of our house and our Daisy. She’s so kind to animals and very responsible. We were gone for five nights and she provided text updates and photos each day. I’d definitely use her again”

“I booked Elicia for house sitting, she was very nice and as far as I can tell did a great job taking care of my animals and house while we were gone! My only critique is that I wish I would’ve received some pictures over the weekend, but I know she did fine with the pups and my cat☺️”

“We adopted our dog during Covid, so this is the first time we traveled and left him with a pet-sitter. Barbara was great. She sent us regular photos and videos of playtime and walks. He got more of both from her than he gets from us. Now he keeps looking at me to 'keep up' with what Barbara did... ha ha. I am very relieved and pleased that we now have someone to stay here and take good care of any pets we have the next time the travel bug bites us. Highly recommend her!”

“Lizzy is awesome! She took very good care of our pups and our house. She was very responsible, communicative, and attentive to what our girls needed whether it was playing fetch or snuggling on the couch. We will definitely use her again.”

“Tatiana is awesome! We would definitely hire her again if we go out of town for vacation. Took care of our babies and kept on a schedule so dogs had a consistent schedule as well. It’s nice to know our doggies were well taken care of!! Definitely would recommend her to anyone!!”

“Patrick does a fantastic job! He house and cat sits for us several times a year. He cares about our cats. He sends us pictures and gives daily updates. I started asking how they were and he took the initative to send me updates after that, even how they were eating. He takes notes and confirms special instructions on our cats.. He remembers special instructions for future care dates. He leaves the house clean. Takes out the trash, does laundry (linens we leave out for him). He has a sense of humor. The cats don’t like strangers. He worked to gain their trust. He brought them treats. He is always courteous and respectful. Completely trustworthy. I can go on and on about his kindness, professionalism, and true compassion for animals. Patrick is a true gem!!! I recommend him with full confidence.”

About: I have always enjoyed spending my time with animals. I got my first dog when I was in elementary school - sadly he recently passed away - but since coming to college I have been missing my sweet fur baby. Being able to play with and care for someone else's pet while also earning extra cash would be an ideal job experience for me. Getting a new pet really isn’t an option for me right now. With all the free time on my hands, and I would love to get the chance to spend it walking and playing with your fur babies! In the past, I have dog sat for other friends and family and I really enjoyed it and having the extra company is always a plus!

“My first experience using Alice Nordwall as a home and cat sitter was an excellent one. First of all, she came to the house twice beforehand, in order to meet me and my kitty, and to go over all of the house and pet rules. She was smart, responsive and kept notes on everything. While I was out of town, she lessened my anxiety by sending me photos with updates, which showed me that my cat was very relaxed and that they were getting along very well. When I came home, the litter box was clean and had fresh litter, all of the food bowls were washed and clean, and my sheets were washed and ready to be put back on my bed. I give Alice my highest recommendation!”

“She loved our animals well and went above and beyond all week!”

“Patrick, Thank you for taking such good care of Millie while we were away, and for providing the videos throughout the day of our happy dog! ~Carla”

“Mackenzie was excellent! She stayed with our two girls for a full weekend and took very well care of our GSD that recently had surgery. It was nice to be away from them knowing they were being cared for in the same way I would. 100/10 recommend her to take care of your fur babies!”

“She is a great dog mom, and will follow each rule she given for the fur babies. She will take care of them like they are her own.”

About: I’ve had a love for dogs ever since I can remember. My baby of 14 years passed away last year and I miss him every day. Family, friends & coworkers always rely on me to care for their fur babies when they are away because they know how much I love and adore all pups. :) I am working part-time and going to school, so weekends would be ideal for me to take care of your fur babies, or I can be available after 5PM on weekdays. I live in a rural area and have a huge yard for a dog/dogs to play in. I can crate them if needed as well.

“Josette was great! Sent pictures, communicated well. Will hopefully be able to get her again!”

“Katelyn was awesome! Responsive, sweet and took great care of our pups! The house was also in great shape when we got home! Will definitely have Katelyn stay with our boys again!”

“Anna Lee has loved animals all her life and has cared for many of her own animals from dogs, cats, horses, goats, rabbits, cows, and a donkey. She is responsible, reliable and is conscious to keep the animals safe. She loves nothing better than playing with her animals. She has had the opportunity to animal sit for me and others. I highly recommend Anna Lee for animal sitting.”

“Harley is a wonderful pet sitter. She bonded very quickly with our wild pup Zelda. She is very dependable, knowledgeable and patient. Her rates are very reasonable. I would highly recommend her to anyone else looking for a pet sitter.”

About: I see animals as deserving the same respect and care that humans do. They view combined with my love for animals of all kinds means that I will go above and beyond to ensure your pet is getting a vacation too. I have cared for cats and dogs from newborns to elderly ones. I fully believe that the best gift we will ever receive is love from our pets. I have 5 pups of my own and I am a stay at home mom. My love of all animals combined with the flexibility of a stay at home mom position means your pets care comes first to me, and on your time schedule. I. I have not boarded animals in my own home since I have 13 of my own (8 cats and 5 dogs) but I will do my best to make sure any animals in my care feel as loved and pampered as their non furry family members who contact me about their care

About: I grew up with all different types of dogs, ranging from pitbulls to shitzus. I grew up with cats as well (and currently have the most adorable kitten). I also walked dogs professionally through Wag! from 2019-21. I work full time from 8-4:30pm Monday-Friday. I always have weekends and holidays off, so those are the days I’m primarily available. My job is flexible sometimes so for special occasions I can make exceptions to my schedule during the week days. I follow instructions explicitly and believe in clear and open communication with owners to ensure the best care. I will care for your pets as if they are my own, with health and safety being my primary concern.

“I have four dogs and a cat that are all indoor pets. Lydia has cared for them on numerous occasions and has always done a great job. She is responsible and very good with the animals. She loves animals and is dependable and honest.”
