House Sitting in Turtle Lake

“Marissa was wonderful with Jackson! She kept me informed and shared pictures while we were away. She was also house sitting for us which made our vacation worry free! I will definitely use Marissa in the future.”

“Jenny put up with our ridiculous Frenchies and even collected eggs from the chickens each day. The house was in the shape we left it and she communicated each day with updates. Would recommend!”

About: Animals have been a huge part of my entire 24+ years of life and will always continue to be. I grew up in a household with multiple pets in the family at any given time. Along with that, I now have two cats of my own and a very handsome Great Pyrenees/Lab Mix. They are my world and everyday I have to stop myself from adding to my little family. I love animals and believe they should all be spoiled during their short time on Earth. I've had general experience with multiple types of pets and I'd love to help spoil your pets while you're away! I start and end my day taking care of my animals. I work full time during the week at an animal hospital so most week days I am not able to visit during the day but can always check in before and after work hours (lunch break is sometimes an option as well). In your home I strive to follow your animals specific usual routine as much as I'm able. If they are being watched in my home, they are separated from my animals but are allowed to roam the majority of the house. Back yard is unfenced so they will be kept on a leash while outside at all times.

“Taylor was amazing! Literally played with Zara all week and gave her all the attention and cuddles. Taylor followed Zara’s schedule and routine perfectly and asked questions when she had them!”

About: I have over 18 years of experience house and animal sitting from overnights to up to 6 weeks in duration; caring for not only dogs but also horses (full boarding barn to a couple of pasture horses), cats, fish, rabbits, goats, chickens, etc. I know what it's like to worry about my pets when I'm away, so I strive to give top notch care, follow all instructions, and have fun with your dog! All while keeping you updated with pictures/texts on how they're doing. I am happy to provide most any dog/house sitting arrangement, walking/visit or boarding. At our country home we have a peaceful and fun environment and private large field that is kept mowed. Your dog will be supervised very closely. Non smoking home. Thank you for considering me; I hope you have a great day! I am a stay at home mom to one and I am home most or all of the day. We are very flexible but also stay on schedule and can accommodate your dog's routine. We live in the country and have ample space for private walks as well as a large mowed field. I supervise very closely and am diligent about keeping your dog as safe as possible on leash while still having fun and exercising. I will feed and take dog out following all instructions.

“Alyssa did a wonderful job coming to our home and watching our older chocolate lab, Coco and our 2 year old miniature dachshund, Max. She treated are furbabies as they were her own. A+! ?❤”

“Alec and Buddha were awesome! The communication, videos, and pictures while we were gone provided a great level of comfort. Alec also did some work with training our puppy during his stay AND we know she had a fun time while we were away - they definitely worked hard and played harder! And as an added bonus, the house was perfectly clean when we returned! Looking forward to booking Alec again in the near future.”

About: I have lived with animals of all kinds for as long as I remember, ever since I was about 5 I would help my parents feed and take care of the animals, and I still help with many thing weither it's bathing, taking on walks, giving hair cuts, giving vaccinations, cutting nails, or giving medication of all sorts. I am currently a senior in high school so on weekdays I have to wait till 4:00 to love your fur-babys as much as you do. I will give your fur-babys the same care and love as I give my pets at home, while also meeting your specific care expectations to keep your fur-babys safe and happy.

About: I've had dogs and cats all my life. I am the type to keep my dogs active whether it be playing fetch in the yard or throwing the stick in the lake for them to fetch. I believe in lots of play toys and chewys so they never get bored. I also understand the dog who might be more calm, maybe a little shy and likes time alone, and that is very understandable. I am a retired nurse and know pretty well the signs and symptoms of pain or discomfort. I understand the importance of proper nutrition and availability of fresh water. I lost my 14 yr. old lab to old age 2 years ago, and just recently got a new yellow lab puppy here in March. I really missed having a travel companion! I'm a unique pet/house sitter in that I travel in my beautiful Canadian Roadtrek Campervan and can house "watch" while taking care of your pets. I do not need to stay in your home. Any additional duties other than "watch" your house can be negotiated- like water a few houseplants, etc. I do ask that you provide a household electric (120V) outside plug in. My small RV uses approx. $2-$3 per day of electricity. I love animals. I have a yellow Labrador myself! I travel often in my RV and we make great travel partners often stopping at dog parks 2-3 times a day on our adventures. Beau would love to have playmates! I can only provide mobile pet/house sitting. I am unable to pet sit in the home I live in. I am a recently retired nurse. I am trained not only in human CPR, but I also have dog and cat CPR training. I have given pets medication, induced vomiting -per instructions while on the phone with a vet tech (after dog ate 1 1/2 lbs of bing cherries - pits and all. Happy ending! :). When I go into a home I find myself scanning countertops and floors for potential hazards for pets - things like medications, foods, hot boiling water on stovetop with handles pointing out, etc... I am constantly monitoring for potential dangers. Sometimes things happen though, unfortunately, that can't be avoided and that's when first aid, CPR, poison control line, and Vet info should all be available and handy. I ask that all instructions be written down and text/emailed to me 24 hours prior. That way if I have any questions, they can be answered before you leave on your relaxing worry-free vacation!

“Emily was wonderful with Gradey and was creative in finding a way to get him to take his daily medications. He was happy and content and everything was clean when we returned home. Would absolutely use Emily again!”

About: I've been taking care of pets since I was in high school. Cleaning litter, walking dogs, and feeding times. Doesn't even seem like a job when you get to spend time with animals!! I work full time Monday through Friday but I am able to drop by for walks and visits beofe or after work! I get off of work at around 3 pm so that provides alot of time for your fur babies. I am unfortunately unable to house/board pets because of family members with allergies. This is not a service that I am able to offer at this time.

About: I have had animals my whole like and have had years of experience working with animals I have very many animals so you know your animals will be in good hands with someone who understands they are family to you and they will be given the utmost treatment! I am working part time and have a flexible schedule so I am happy to make sure I can work with your schedule and you and your pets needs! I have a dog that is extremely outgoing and friendly that would love to play with other dogs but if you would like they can be easily separated! I communicate with my clients on what they expect from me as there sitter and my needs as to safety and ßèèþ

About: I currently have four of my own dogs ranging from 15 weeks-13 years old! I have watched family friends dogs in the past to feed, take them outside, and one dog was a diabetic dog that I needed to give him medicine for. I am off work during the summer! There are a few weekends I am out of town, but if I am around I would be more than happy to help! I currently have four dogs at my house! My little puppy loves to play and will play with anyone! I do have a few older dogs that will keep to themselves.

About: Since childhood, I have always had a special connection with animals, always drawn to them. I have cared for cats, dogs, and other small critters since I can remember. I am now the proud owner of 4 large dogs, 5 cats, a lionhead rabbit, and fish. I also have experience working as a vet assistant for the last five years and have a keen eye for paying attention to the needs of our beloved fur babies. Along with experience, I am obtaining a certification as a veterinary technician, just completing my first year of a two-year program. I am currently a full-time college student, free for the summer, and have plenty of flexibility. Don't be afraid to reach out! I love animals! I stick to schedule feedings, potty breaks, and routines set by owners. Bonus: I will provide lots of belly rubs, attention, and treats if allowed.

About: I have had dogs for 5 years and recently added a cat to the bunch! I love spending time with them by walking them on our large property! I work 7:30-3:30 as a school teacher, but my husband leaves around 9am on the weekdays. I spend every minute after that with my pets! I will care for the pets in whichever way is preferred by their owner. We have a large yard that is far away from a busy street.
