House Sitting in Sugar City

“Laura was nothing short of phenomenal taking care of our two golden doodles while we were away over the holidays. She was extremely communicative, and stayed in touch multiple times daily on how our pups were doing. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they could stay in the comfort of our home - helping to keep them in their regular routine. Cannot recommend her enough and definitely would utilize her in the future!!”

“I was soooo nervous leaving my dogs with someone they didn’t know, we had to leave for almost a week and Marissa watched our home and pets for us. Amazing would be an understatement!!! She kept in touch daily with photos and texts, always making sure I knew things were being well handled. She asked questions about things I didn’t even think of, like what day our garbage goes out and if I wanted her to get the mail etc. she left the house in great condition and was so kind and sweet to the dogs, pretty sure they didn’t even miss us!!!! Highly recommend Marissa!”

“Great communication and came through for us!”

“Izabella is very good with dogs. She has three of her own and cares for them very deeply. She is kind and gentle with them.”

“Rae has loved animals her entire life! She has always helped care for the family dog & cats. She got her own pet Rabbit 8 yrs ago. She has worked at groomer/ kennel and volunteered at an animal rescue. She would be my first choice to care for my personal animals!”

“Kayden did an excellent job watching our 2 dogs, 2 cats and our home. I would definitely recomend her to anyone.”

“She is AMAZING!! She has many animals of her own and she loves them just like they're her own kids ❤️ I talk with her everyday and see her feed her animals, love them and take care of them and always see if they need to go potty or if they just want some extra attention ❤️ she takes her dog on walks every single day as well! Sometimes multiple times a day, because her dog loves to go on walks. Sometimes she will go on nature trails and walk around with her dog. She always makes sure to bring some water and some food along with her, just in case her dog gets hungry or thirsty! She's so sweet and loving with all of her furbabies. If I had an animal of my own, I would definitely trust her to watch my furbaby ❤️ She's even given me tips and tricks about animals, so that in the future, I know how to better take care of a pet! I really want to get a cat, and she told me some good ways to be able to trim their nails if they can't file down their nails by themselves! And how to befriend a really shy cat, that needs love and patience, before it will learn to trust me and be okay with my presence. The cat that I REALLY want to get, is very shy. The cats previous owner, had passed away due to old age. And the cat itself, is 10 years old. She told me that sometimes treats help lure out shy kitties, and just to be very patient with them! She also taught me the trick on how you can make a cat feel safe! Ever heard of the tooth brush method? You take a tooth brush, one that you will obviously not use yourself, and wet it under some water. Shake off a little water and find your kitty. When they're laying down and not being so active, you can softly brush their face, head and body with the wetted tooth brush. It's adorable, because it will remind them of their birth mother, cleaning them at an early age! It mimics the feeling of getting cleaned and I had no idea! That's also another way to slowly get a cat comfortable with you, if you can get that close to it! She has a lot of tips and tricks that I've learned over the years of knowing her. You can not find a better person to trust being careful, safe, loving and responsible pet caregiver!”

About: I have owned animals all my life. I have pet sat, trained and cared for aniamls all shapes and sizes all throughout their lifespans. I own cats ,dogs,bunnies,goats ,horses and poultry and have had experience with most all animals all throughout my life. I have and have had animals that required special care and am beyond happy to accommodate any special need that needs met for any individual pet. Animals are family, they deserve all the love we can offer!❤️❤️ I currently work a very flexible job at a barn and can make basically any day work for walking or checking in on pets throughout the day. I would be happy to check in or walk any day of the week, overnight stays aren’t as available, as I do have classes and my own pets, but am super willing to make anything work. I will treat any pet as if they were my own. With so so much love as they do deserve all the loves! I be sure that all their basic needs are met along with lots of extra playtime and love! I’m also always looking for a hiking /walking companion and always down for an adventure with our furry friends!❤️

“She was super great with our dog and sent tons of updates which we loved!”

“Brynnlee was so great house sitting for us! She took really good care of our dogs and even walked them every morning. I wasn’t worried at all while we were on vacation. She left my place really clean too! Definitely highly recommend!”

“Carrie was great! She came over and met the dogs before our trip, so I felt confident that she would take great care of them! She was so kind and definitely treated my dogs as if they were her own! I will definitely reach out to her for future trips! Thanks Carrie!”

“Kathy was great, the dogs were happy and healthy for our three days out of town. We enjoyed getting pictures of the dogs while we were out of town.”

About: My family has owned pets for as long as I can remember. I have recently graduated from BYU Idaho with a Bachelors Degree in Animal Science. My goal is to become a veterinarian. Currently searching for a part time job, so I have lots of time to care for pets. When I'm gaining clinic experience, I am free in the evening, and any other day I'm available all day. I love playing with animals until they fall over panting, or snuggling up together. I stick to feeding schedules, provide clean water, and clean up messes.

“Sariah was friendly and took such great care of our pup! 10/10 recommend and we will be booking with her again in the future!”

“Qiara was fantastic!! Lots of pictures and daily updates. My dogs fell in love with her. They are mopping around today I believe because they miss her?. We could enjoy our Holiday because she was in our home and with our pups. The house was left perfect. I will use her again when we need a sitter. I’m thrilled to have found her??”

“I highly recommend Taryn for all your dog sitting needs. She is responsible, dependable, and will treat your fur baby as if it were her own.”

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, growing up with both dogs and cats as part of my family. Dogs, with their boundless energy, loyalty, and affectionate nature, have always brought so much joy into my life. I’ve had the pleasure of caring for multiple dogs over the years, from playful puppies to older dogs needing a bit more attention. Each one had a unique personality, and I loved every moment of walks, playtime, and those quiet times when they just wanted to be close. On the cat side, I currently have two, Bobby and Binx, who keep me on my toes with their quirky antics. I’ve also nursed an elderly cat back to health, gaining experience in administering medications and providing the extra care cats need as they age. Whether it’s caring for my own pets or helping out by pet sitting for friends and neighbors, I’m passionate about making sure every animal feels safe, loved, and comfortable. Dogs with their exuberance and cats with their calming presence each bring something special, and I find joy in caring for both, offering them love, play, and comfort in whatever way they need. I currently work and am going to school to be a Social Work. But I love and highly want to have animals in my life! This is something that I want to do on the side. When I pet sit, I always make sure the animals feel comfortable and secure in their own home, sticking to their usual routines to minimize any stress. I’m mindful of their habits, from feeding times to their favorite spots for naps, and I give them plenty of attention and affection so they feel at ease while their owners are away. Whether it’s playtime, giving them medication, or just keeping them company, I aim to create a calm, happy environment. For dogs, I love taking them on walks that match their energy level, whether they need a leisurely stroll or a more playful walk. I focus on making walks enjoyable, letting them explore and take in their surroundings while making sure they get the exercise they need. I’m always aware of their safety, avoiding any risky situations and keeping a close eye on them. My goal is to give every pet, whether a dog or cat, the love and care they deserve, making sure they’re happy and healthy when their owners return.

“I'm so happy for all of the dogs and dog owners who will get to meet Kara! She is dependable, conscientious, smart, and loves dogs! With Kara caring for your pet, you can rest easy that he/she is getting an attentive and fun friend!”

About: Being a good dog sitter requires more than just love for animals. It involves responsibility, observation skills, communication, patience, safety awareness, and genuine care. All these attributes i apply to each animal I take care of. I can potty train dogs, and can teach them basic tricks. Pet care fits well within my daily and weekly schedule, I’m more than open to dropping by several times a day to ensure your dogs care. Caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s, is a responsibility I take very seriously. My experience has equipped me with the skills necessary to provide a nurturing and safe environment for pets, ensuring their well-being and happiness. In my own home, I prioritize creating a structured routine that encompasses all aspects of pet care. I am diligent about providing balanced meals tailored to each pet's specific dietary needs, ensuring they receive the right nutrition. Regular exercise is also a key focus; I engage in daily walks and playtime to keep my pets physically fit and mentally stimulated.

“I would not hesitate to hire Kate. She has incredible love and kindness toward all animals, and will give it her everything to care for yours..”
