House Sitting in Tontogany

“Chloe watched our two dogs and cat for 8 nights, and we came home to happy, healthy pets and the house in great shape! Thanks again :)”

“Chloe is an outstanding sitter! She took great care of our pups, communicated well, and we felt so comfortable leaving our dogs in her care. Will definitely use her again and again and again!”

“Brooklyn did an excellent job at taking care of my two cats while I was away. One of mine cats is very shy and she took the time before our scheduled booking to visit and let him get to know her. Highly recommend!”

“Mark was amazing with our two dogs. Our dogs went on several long walks, enjoyed playing in the back yard with their Mark’s dog and loved all the lap time and belly rubs that Mark gave them. Mark was great with sending pictures and videos of our puppies while we were gone, too. We’ll definitely pick Mark again and we’d highly recommend Mark to you.”

“Sarah was amazing! She went above and beyond for our sweet pup, I would absolutely use her again. Thank you Sarah!”

“I have two labs3/5 yo. They love Dom and listen to him. He is so loving towards them. He’s watched them many times for me.”

“Gwen watched our dog, Jack, for an entire week. She gave him constant attention and activity while keeping us updated with frequent pictures and videos. The weather was horrible, yet she still took him for multiple daily walks. Gwen went above and beyond our expectations and Jack definitely missed her when she was gone! Highly recommend!”

“Melissa has cared for my two pets (one of which is a temperamental chihuahua) many times over. Both of my dogs absolutely adore her. I have never doubted her care or attention to my pets and would recommend her to ANYONE seeking pet care :)”

“I've used Kami a few times to dog sit at my home. She did a fabulous job taking care of my Newfoundland. Even his drool didn't bother her lol. She is very kind and compassionate. She followed all my instructions and my Griz was very well taken care of.”

“Kathleen came and did a few drop ins while we were out of town for the day. she let us know after each drop in and was very responsive”

“She was reliable, flexible, and our animals liked her. Really happy with how my fearful dog seemed to do. Thanks!”

About: I have experience with cats of all ages (kittens to 21+), and dogs of all sizes. I’ve worked with service puppies in training, elderly cats with special diets and medication schedules, and raised several kittens. I have experience with dog-anxious dogs, older puppies, and senior dogs. I’m currently a PhD student, and have a fairly open schedule Wednesday-Sunday. Unfortunately, I am unavailable Mondays and Tuesdays. I am available mornings through evenings. I have separation anxiety from my own babies, and I understand that you might as well! I provide in-home services only, so your dogs/cats are comfortably in their own space. I love to send picture updates, check in about any changes, and am used to carefully opening doors due to escape-artist cats. I am also comfortable crating dogs.

“Took lots of pictures and my boy looked very happy”

About: **NEW PROSPECTIVE CLIENTS: Before requesting a booking, please note my scheduling availability outlined below!** Hi! I'm Allyson. I love animals of ALL kinds! I grew up with dogs and cats, and don't consider myself a dog or cat person...I'm a "both" person. :) I was totally the weird kid that was invited to birthday parties and ignored the games and cake to play with the family pet. Not much has changed, to be honest... Since graduating college in 2008, I've cared for my own, my family's, and my friends' pets when duty has called. I adopted my first cat (of my own) in 2006 and he just passed in 2020 due to old age and congestive heart failure. I have experience with puppies, having raised my rescue dog Jenna from a very small 8 weeks old. She lived until 11 and unfortunately developed metastatic cancer. My in-laws own a senior shih tzu that I drop in to visit with/let out/feed when they are out of town. She has vision and hearing loss, and we take things slow. I have actually groomed her as well, working around her various skin and eye issues. My cats have all been rescues! Rue was saved by a good samaritan back in 2020, and was very much a "free kitten" situation. I had just lost my cat and am a sucker...so we got her fixed up and she became part of the family. Most recently, my husband and I adopted Rosie, a 2 year old retired racing greyhound with a ton of energy to spare! She keeps us on our toes (and sometimes steps on them)! It is definitely worth mentioning that I keep reptiles (snakes, geckos) and fish as well, and have experience keeping small mammals (gerbils, hamsters). I am not adverse to frozen rodents or insect feeders, so if you have a scaly member of the family, I'd be more than happy to help out with them! Today, I am on the board of directors for a retired racing greyhound adoption group (going into my 7th year of involvement). I would love to talk to you about retired racers, if you'd like to hear about how awesome they are! Thanks for considering me in the very important decision of who to entrust with your non-human family members. **MY AVAILABILITY** I am usually completely open on weekends, and only BEFORE 8am / AFTER 4pm on weekdays. I do have a full-time job. This is a passion side project for me to make connections with people and their pets in my community! Another note: I require an in-person meet and greet with you and your pets prior to booking. I am only able to accept same-day bookings from existing clients. I always ask what treats are okay for new animals I meet. Food is love, in most situations! This is usually a quick and positive way to build trust. Then, I gauge the animals' personality and mood and take things at their pace. If they're having a bad day, I'm not going to force any interactions that might be too much--this always helps the relationship in the long run. If your animal is ready and raring to go, it's playtime, pets time, snuggle time, walkies time...whatever we can do to make the most of our visit!

“Kaylee did a wonderful job with our pup, taking her on plenty of long walks and giving her lots of play time. She was so so happy to have her there and we are too! Would highly recommend her to watch your furry friends :)”

“Ri is a responsible, kind and caring young man! He will always work to the highest caliber and do exactly what you would like him to do. He is always positive and great with both people and animals. Ri has grown up around pets his whole life and will love them like his own! I would trust Ri with my doggos anytime!”

“Amelia was absolutely wonderful with our Lucy! Lucy stayed with Amelia and her family for a week while we were away, and everyday we got updates, pictures and videos which made us at ease knowing that she was having a great time. Amelia was also diligent with giving Lucy the last few days of medication she had to take. Amelia cared for Lucy like she was her own and we couldn't be happier with our experience!”

“Margaret pet sits for me on a regular basis, and always flexible with my schedule. She does very well with my 2 big dogs, even though they are difficult to handle. Margaret never seems to be flustered or overwhelmed by them. She is always patient, and knows how to calm the dogs down. I would highly recommend her.”

“Samuel was a fantastic kitty sitter for our two babies. He took instructions well and looked after them the week we were gone. We came back to a house that was well taken care of, and kitties who were happy and healthy. He took care of everything, took pictures, and gave great updates so we weren’t too worried while we were gone! The apartment itself was in good shape with no trash or anything, and the litter boxes and water/food bowls looked great! He was a fantastic communicator and I would highly recommend his services.”

About: I've had a pet my whole life; dogs, cats, chickens, gerbils, fish, parrots, goats, pigs, snakes, you name it and I've probably owned it. I studied zoology, science of animals, in college and have worked as a wildlife tech. Our small farm in Bowling Green is the best place for your fur baby to run, play, and enjoy the grass and sunshine. We have 2 dogs and a cat in the house so they will have friends to keep them company and barn animals to keep them entertained! Please feel free to message me with any questions or to set up a meet & greet visit. I currently work from home part-time. I'm available most days of the week for doggie daycare, boarding in my home, walks and visits, and pet sitting at your home. While your dog is with us they will have supervision the majority of the time, at most I am away from the house 6 hours at a time or away running short errands. We have a big yard (no fence) with lots of room (almost 2 acres!) for your pet to get plenty of exercise and play. In our home we have 2 dogs and 1 cat, and outside in the barn we have chickens and 2 cats. Your dog will get plenty of exercise, play, mental stimulation, and love while they are staying with us. When your dog is staying with us, they will never be left unsupervised outside. If your dog is not the best at voice recall, we have long leads/leashes, and are more than willing to use your electronic collar, to help keep them safe. We have all the equipment to help your dog feel comfortable and safe while staying with us. we have crates and inside gates to help contain them, if you prefer.
