House Sitting in Spencer

“Great job with my babies. I felt at ease leaving the puppy knowing he can be a terror 🤣”

About: I've been fortunate to share my life with multiple dogs throughout my life, giving me a deep understanding of canine behavior and the unique needs of different personalities. I'm comfortable handling packs of dogs, ensuring each receives individual attention while maintaining a harmonious environment. I'm skilled at recognizing and addressing any signs of stress or anxiety in a multi-dog household. Whether it's playtime, mealtimes, or simply providing a calm and comforting presence, I can create a positive and enjoyable experience for all dogs in my care. I am home most of the day after taking the kids to school, I do have a real estate business that requires some of my time. I have a large fenced in back yard and an Irish doodle to keep your pup company. My garage is heated and all kennels are cleaned daily

About: Having grown up on a farm, I have taken care of many different kinds of animals, including cats, dogs, horses, fish, and chickens. I recently said goodbye to my 18-year-old dog, so now I have some spare time and would like to begin sitting for other pet owners. I also have owned several pets throughout my lifetime and find them to be very entertaining, and having animals around tends to just make me happy!! I am currently working a substitute job, so I never know which days I will be working, but I have the option to say no. I would like to offer my services to people who would like their pets to stay in their own homes as they are generally more comfortable there. I also do lots of walking each day, so taking your dog for a walk would fit right into my schedule! I also enjoy playing with pets, and of course loving on them is one of the main reasons I signed up to do this (unless your pet is just not into that, in which case I am happy to keep my distance!) 😊

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a child. I have cared for dogs/puppies and cats/kittens of all ages. I have years of experience caring for barnyard and exotic pets as well. I am also a registered nurse and have medical education and training to add. I love caring for animals and treat all of them just like family! Pet owners who book services with me with receive regular pictures and updates so they know their beloved pet(s) are safe and happy! I work full-time from the end of August through the end of May, but have evenings and weekends off. I have summers off and have extended breaks during Thanksgiving and Christmas, plus other holidays, allowing me plenty of opportunity to assist you with your time away from your beloved pet(s). I would be caring for your pet in your home and would be available to do overnight stays, day hours, or whatever timeframe needed while you are away.

About: Hi, I’m Mallory and I am a dog lover to my core! The big thing you should know about me is that I will absolutely treat your dog as my own and will most likely love them within seconds of meeting! I’ve had dogs all throughout childhood and I’ve always taken the best care of them! I’ve played with dogs while babysitting for kids and I also have a couple friends that I have dog sat and house sat for! I’m currently a full time nanny in Okoboji Monday-Friday; 8:30-4:30. I am luckily able to take the kids with me to do things so I could very easily let dogs out during the day, feed them, etc. The same goes for house sitting, if your pet can be left alone for a few hours at a time! My weekends are almost always open unless I’m babysitting or going out of town for the day! I cannot care for any pets in my home as my dog isn’t a fan of other dogs but I am more than willing to come to yours! I always play with them for a little bit before I leave and after I have fed them/let them out! I always make sure they feel loved and cared for while their parents are away!
