House Sitting Stuart

About: Hello, my name is Amanda! I would be honored to provide peace of mind, knowing your home &/or pets are safe and cared for, while you are away, during the day or longer. I offer drop in visits, dog walking, doggy daycare, boarding and house sitting. Additionally, I have experience taking care of my parent's diabetic cat, when they went out of town, which included giving him insulin shots twice a day, so I am comfortable with some medical needs' animals. My cat, Penny, is technically a senior cat, and she remains very healthy and happy! I also have experience taking care of my friends' senior dogs overnight when her and her family went out of town. As well as my own senior dog, Bentley, who has passed away. It has been a few years, but my heart is still too broken to think about welcoming a dog into my home for forever, but I so miss having a dog's company, so, temporary will have to do for now! I know just how much I loved my dog and wanted to protect him and keep him happy & healthy as long as possible, and I promise to treat your pets the same. I was also the proud owner of 4 chickens when I lived in Florida. They were the greatest entertainment! By the time I moved to Michigan, there was sadly only one remaining chicken, I didn't want to confuse her with the weather change, so of course she became a house chicken. She got to live her last two years living inside the house, cozy as can be, with me, my dog & cat. We all loved it! Long story short, I'm also available for some farm animal sitting. I promise to keep them out of your house! Unless... I would love to chat with you about your pets and your situation, and see if I can be of any assistance to you! Thank you so much! Talk soon! I would really love for pet care to become my full time work, and at this time I have open availability, in order to achieve that. I have a fully fenced yard and no off-limit spaces in my home, your pets will be treated as my own, while in my care!

“Abby took great care of our dog and cat during a ten day trip away. She made our anxious dog very comfortable and at ease but being mindful of developing the relationship early on. So grateful for her!”

About: Devoted and die-hard dog Momma over here! I have a Muttley crew of dogs including Labrador Retrievers and Pitt Bull mixes. My pack includes senior aged dogs through to young dogs. I have dedicated the last couple years to fostering dogs and absolutely fallen in love pivoting my world in the direction of companion pets. I have also worked at a local doggie daycare and volunteer often with my dogs as control dogs in a local dog training group's reactive rover class. I currently work part time in a local dog park as well. Needless to say, I encounter all types of dogs throughout my day and love learning their unique personalities. I have studied dogs at length with my personal pack, in training classes, with my dog centered jobs, and I continue to enjoy deep discussions on dog body language to learn even more! Dogs are fascinating animals to me, and I adore learning more to better communicate with them. I have a flexible schedule currently. I work part time at a local dog park in the afternoons during the week, and volunteer by fostering dogs. I have a fenced in yard and friendly dogs at home that are social and enjoy playing with new pups, proven with the foster pups I bring home. My pack is excellent communicators with other dogs and help draw out shy dogs and teach them how to dog. Dogs are welcome on the furniture (couch and bed) in my home. New dogs through foster or dog sitting sleep in a crate for naps during the day and at night out of an abundance of caution for safety.

“Wonderful to work with. Sent lots of updates and photos! Very quick to reply and not afraid to ask questions when needed. Will certainly work with Lainey again!”

Mary C.

“Emily did a great job with my puppy while I was away. He is a lot of work but she was able to make the best of it! I felt so bad she had to put up with a chirping smoke alarm at my house while I was gone, but she survived that as well!”

About: I have experience with just about every type of pet regardless of age. I have experience with kittens and puppies as well as rescues with high care needs as well as their medication schedules. I began pet sitting when I was very young and have always loved it. I have special experience with caring for dogs with trauma and special situations. It is my privilege to meet those needs. I am available every weekday before 8:45 and every weeknight after 5pm. On weekends I have full day availability on Saturday and Sunday. Currently I am a happy lover of my two dogs and cats at home and my cat Tonka Truck. I usually begin my day with feeding and letting them out and repeat that after shifts. Apart from the usual litter box changes and feeding, it’s necessary to give my older dog medication in the middle of the day. These routines fit well in my life. I care for pets with a high degree of input from clients. While I do have a lot of experience with pet care, it is ultimately your baby and you know your pet best. Any suggestions, rules, and schedules are my privilege to abide by. I cannot care for pets in my own home due to the trauma needs of my own pets, but I am very conscious of house preferences and pet needs in clients’ homes. I am flexible with play schedules and meal times and have become efficient at administering medication from experience with my own dogs. I am also able to meet any sanitation and safety preferences during this time.

About: As you read through my current 5 star reviews they are all from years ago when I was a homeowner in Washington State. My son and I now live here and still want to spend time caring for animals. Currently we have one pet of our own, Bob, who is a cat. We love caring for many animals, but our busy schedule makes it impossible to be dog owners at this time. Caring for others pets they love is fulfilling, fun, and great for my son to experience as he loves animals very much. I have both owned, rescued, and cared for pets and animals of all kinds my entire life. I'm comfortable caring for pets of all ages and with administering medication when needed, as well. Very well as I only open my schedule during times that work for me. I am mindful of others pets as if they were my own. I am not currently offering in home services (at my home). I can come to your home and watch your pet babies. How I do that is dictated by the owner. Your pet being comfortable in their own home while you're away means consistency in what they are used to.

About: i have had pets for my entire life, and i love taking care of them! i have experience with multi pet households, including mixes of cats and dogs. I currently have 3 cats and have had two others before them. I have had small dogs and large dog experience as well, running concurrently with cat ownership. As a college student, I have daily class and work requirements. I also have some student organizations I am part of, but I am able to check on pets in the morning before everything, and in the evening afterwards. I cannot host animals at my house here, but I will treat any pet sitting opportunity with the utmost respect. I totally understand that I am coming into someone else's space, and taking care of their beloved pets. I do not take that lightly and think about how I would want a sitter to do the same for my kitties and dog.

“Mikayla did a fantastic job for us. We have two demanding dogs who crave attention and a new puppy. She was amazing with all of them and even stayed an extra night when our travel plans home changed because of our airline. We can't say enough good things about her!”

Rachel F.

“Alaina was wonderful! She stayed with our pack and watched our home over the weekend. She was communicative, kind, and clean. And our pups loved her! Thank you for giving us peace of mind while away. We would absolutely love to use your services in the future.”
