Personalized care for your dog or cat - Lisbon
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Lisbon
“Barbara and Darryll are amazing!! Our Mozzy was so happy and well cared for while he stayed with them. They were quick to respond and respectful of our rules. Mozzy came home even better behaved than he had been! We are so grateful to them. It is good to know we have a great place for Mozzy to stay if we need to go out of town.”
“Kevin was exceptional - this was our first experience with a dog sitter, and he was courteous, responsive, and accommodating. His greyhound, Maki, is a gentle soul who got along wonderfully with our smaller dogs. We were especially grateful for the updates and photos of our pups relaxing and out on walks. I highly recommend Kevin and would be happy to entrust him with our pups again in the future!”
“I am truly grateful to have found Lexi to care for my dog, Vizhna. I need to board V for 11 weekends over a nine-month period because I'm going to school away from home. Vizhna gets anxious in new situations, so it was important for me to find one person who could do most or all of the weekends, instead of finding a different sitter for each weekend. I contacted 14 pet-sitters on Rover that didn't work out--before I contacted Lexi. Lexi is calm, competent, thoughtful, caring, and detail-oriented, and Vizhna was able to relax and enjoy herself while staying with Lexi and her family. That was a huge weight off my heart, to find a situation where V will not feel anxious while she's away from home--and in fact to find a second (temporary) home for V. I highly recommend Lexi for any pet care you need!”
“This was the second time we’ve left our pup with Lika and Alister. This time was for an extended stay while we were away. Lika sent us photos and videos daily to let us know how she was doing. If you want your furbaby to be cared for with nothing but love, Lika and Alister should be your first choice!”
About: Some of my first memories are of my dog Brownie. My mother raised Springer Spaniels for some time, and after that we had a Labrador, a Newfoundland, three Shitzu's and beloved little Scotty named Jimmy McPierce. I am a gardener by trade so I started petsitting/dogwalking professionally years ago, as a way to generate extra income during the winter months. What can I offer your pet? Personalized care. I understand that every animal has it's own personality quirks. I can work with that! If you have special commands or routines for your pet, please let me know in advance so I know how to best care for your pet. I go above and beyond most sitters because I deeply care for the emotional wellbeing of animals. How many can I watch at once? Multiple pets are not a problem, more the merrier. What if my dog or cat needs to be given medication? I have many clients whose pets require medication. I can administer shots if you have a diabetic in the family. What if my pet is high energy? I am a very active person so if your pup likes to go on runs or hikes, please let me know. I love to play with frisky cats too! I tend to be busier in the summer and therefore don't take on as many clients, but devote most of my time to caring for pets during winter months. However, if you are located somewhere close to my work in the summer, then overnights shouldn’t be a problem as long as your pet can be alone for around six hours. I will consider taking certain dogs into my home for overnights if it is the right fit. I don't own my own house, so I must be sure they will not damage anything. Cats are also welcome if they meet the same behavioral standards.

About: I have spent many overnights at homes while providing pet care. The durations of these stays have been up to a week. I do very well with following clear directions for feeding, medications, as well as other pet care needs. This includes affection and playing— I absolutely love dogs and cats! I am a teacher, which of course is a very busy job. However, I do not work over the summer, which means I have lots of flexibility in these months. I am also available during most weekends! I care for pets in my clients’ homes by following instructions regarding feeding, medications, going outside, as well as anything else that may be necessary! When owners are gone, I recognize it is best for the pets to keep their routines as consistent as possible! I respect any rules clients may have for their pets (e.g. where around they house they are allowed, any dietary limitations, and any necessary precautions to take so that the pets stay safe!)
“Robert was fantastic and went above all asked. I was not worried at all when I went on vacation to leave my kitties in his hands. I highly recommend Robert for your pets, and will definitely reach out to him in the future!”
“Laura was so great with our cats! She was super responsive and kind throughout the week. It was also amazing coming home to an extra clean house. We’ll definitely be repeat customers.”

I have a full time job ,but I have available some hours in the mornings and on Fridays I am usually free almost all day so I would love to start my day surrounded by your adorable pets I will respect the limits and the rules that each pet has in their home and I will fill it with lots of love and games until they can return to it, so I will also make sure that it walks and collects its needs and feeds it at its established times

“Annie took wonderful care of our senior mini-poodle mix. He is over 16 years old and has some medical challenges. Annie did a tremendous job making him feel comfortable. Updated us with text/pics and a printed day report to take home. Excellent communication during the booking process as well. We would definitely book with Annie again if in the area.”
About: Growing up around a wide variety of animals has given me the skills and passion needed to be an attentive and responsible carer of all kinds of pets. I've owned several dogs, cats, rodents, and horses. I was responsible for administering medications, accommodating pets with special needs, becoming attuned to various behaviors and habits, and adhering to specific individualized training methods. I'm currently working full-time from home as a customer service rep for a small, local company and mothering my 2 year old toddler (who is very gentle and respectful around all animals). I'm fortunately very flexible with my schedule and can accommodate both last-minute and long-term schedules! Being a sincere animal lover, I'm always enthusiastically willing to tend to the needs of any pets that are under my care. I believe that both people and animals benefit from living in a clean and comfortable space, so I seek to maintain and accommodate that kind of positive atmosphere in your pet's home.
“They were great with our girl. When she had a bit of a hard time at the beginning she was in constant communication with me about her. She was extremely flexible with times for both pick up and drop off. Highly recommended and will be using her again if needed!”

About: I grew up with a dog and multiple cats from age 5 until 20. I have also had pocket pets like hamsters and gerbils over the years. I am recently retired and want to work part-time at a job that is fulfilling. Spending time with animals is a joy for me as I currently do not have my own pet. I am very flexible, dependable, and responsible. I look forward to meeting and caring for your pet and will treat them with the care, respect, and love they deserve. I have a dog-safe rear seat cover for my truck in case I need to transport your dog for any reason such as to the veterinarian or a scenic area to walk your dog. When caring for your pet in your home I will treat your home like it was my own with the utmost respect. And that goes obviously for your pet too! I am currently retired so I typically have availability to care for your pet and am looking forward to it! I will care for your pet like it were my own. I do not offer the service of caring for your pet in my home. I will, however, care for your pets in your home and am willing to stay overnight if that is needed and have done so for extended stays.
About: Animals bring me so much happiness. I lived in a household with dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens and lizards for several years. I loved starting my day with them every morning. They all have their own special personalities. It would be my pleasure to spend time with your pets and make them feel loved and cared for. I will provide exercise and playing, medication administration, provide your pet with fresh food and water or just some cuddle time if needed. If you need additional services I am more than happy to try and accommodate you. Our pets are a part of our families and I will do my best to make sure they feel happy, safe and comfortable in their environment. It's all about the animals for me. I have a pretty flexible schedule and love to stay busy. Nothing makes me happier than filling my days caring for your pets. I am coming into your home and want your animal to be as comfortable as possible. I want to make sure their daily routine stays the same and they feel safe, relaxed and happy with me.
About: I've cared for all kinds of animals including farm animals like chickens and goats to typical house pets, Right down to a sugar glider once I have a wonderful schedule that allows me 3 days off. With school getting ready to pick back up again and winter on its way. I'm looking for a little extra income and what better way than to spend some hours with the best things on the planet, pets! Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday are my days off so those are the days I will be available most often. Though, because I don't leave for work until noon, I would be open to morning drop-ins when possible on the weekends. It's important for pets to know they're taken care of fresh food and water. Some play time and company clean litter boxes and walks. Their comfort is key.
