House Sitting Vicksburg

“Rod was terrific! He stayed 10 days caring for our needy dog and our home. Imaging our surprise when we got home at 1:00 am and the house was exactly the way we left it and our dog didn't seem to miss us at all. I can highly recommend Rod and will definitely book him again when we need another sitter. Can't thank him enough!”

“Brady was amazing! We met multiple times to make sure Chance and her were comfortable together and she made sure he was taken care of while we were gone and updated us. We will definitely ask her to hang with Chance again!!”

“10/10 no notes for Sunnie. Dogs are happy and house is immaculate. Sunnie communicates everything that’s going on with the dogs—good and bad. She’s totally transparent which I really appreciate! Already booked her for my next trip! Thank you Sunnie!!”

“Michelle provided updates and services as requested. Came home to a non-distressed cat which is all I can hope for with my shy guy. Would book her again.”

“Lydia did a really great job watching my dogs! They aren’t easy since one is in his senior years and the other is much younger. She got my old boy his meds and got him fed which isn’t always easy. She walked my dogs daily which I really appreciate! Plenty of pics to check in and she asked questions because I always leave out some detail here or there lol.”

“Alisa was an excellent sitter for our two pups! She communicated with us throughout our trip, sent daily photos and updates, and took great care of both our dogs and our home. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Alisa again and will definitely be using her services in the future. Thank you so much, Alisa!”

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life, I was always the one to dogsit for family and friends. I’ve loved every minute of spending time with different dogs and their personalities! I have three dogs myself so I know what it’s like to be a dog mom! I would love to take care of your fur baby/babies! I’m currently unemployed so I have plenty of time to play with your fur baby/babies! I am available every Monday through Wednesday. I am also available Thursday through Sunday if I am asked in advance! I have a cabin a couple hours away from where I live so sometimes I am up there, that’s why I would need a notice for Thursday-Sunday! I can be available anytime during the day! I am willing to do whatever is needed for you pet to be comfortable! Let me know what your daily routine is and that’s what I will do! I want you to have peace of mind while I am taking care of your fur baby!

“Vanya is incredible!! Our dogs fell absolutely in love with her. She sent many pictures and videos and we could tell the dogs were having a blast playing with her each day. She went above and beyond by cleaning the house and giving one of our dogs a bath (it's so nice coming from vacation to a clean house!). Honestly the best dog sitter experience ever - we plan to be a repeat customer. Don't think twice about booking Vanya, you will not be disappointed! I can't say enough good things about our experience!”

“Outstanding communication. I appreciated every time he was at my house he let me know how the dogs were doing. I am defiantly going to rebook with him again.”

About: I started pet sitting at the age of 15, but have loved animals of every kind for as long as I can remember. I began volunteering at a horse rescue at the age of 12, and worked with various farm animals of every kind with very specific care instructions. In pet sitting I have taken care of dogs, cats, and other animals of every size, shape, breed, and personality. I participated in and was a TA for WMU’s Applied Animal Behavior Practicum for 4 semesters, where I worked with, cared for, and trained dogs and cats at the SPCA of southwest Michigan. I was also the Barn Manager at Lake of the Woods and Greenwoods Summer Camp, where I was in charge of many animals, all with very specific needs and schedules. I currently have a job where I can work anywhere as long as I have my laptop, so my schedule is very flexible to suit your needs! I am available most days, and can be very accommodating with what your pet needs. I have two dogs that love to play in our huge yard. My rescue is quite shy and prefers to stay at home or go on walks at non-populated places, while my standard poodle is very social and loves to anywhere and everywhere with me. I also have a cat who loves to play with my dogs, and likes any toy that has feathers and he can chase. I also have three rabbits that I foster for the summer camp I used to work for. I love playing enrichment games and building puzzles for my pets!

“Sarah and Jordean were INCREDIBLE. They are so trustworthy and we felt completely comfortable leaving our (fur)child in their care. We 10000% will rebook every single time.”

“Izabella was very responsive and communicative and took great care of our dog!”

“Connor stayed for 10 days with our large friendly dog and three cats. He did a fantastic job. Iur animals are admittedly a bit spoiled but Connor made sure that he understood their needs and took very good care of them. They were all relaxed and clearly liked him by the way they interacted with him even after we got home. He sent a nice photo and check in to us every day of our trip and made sure to ask questions and permissions about the pets’ care. We usually only leave our pets with family so this was a big deal for us. We will definitely use Connor in the future!”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a kid, and now work my full time job with animals every day. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, ferrets, and rodents! My senior dog has Stage 3 kidney disease and we provide daily care for him, including oral and injectable meds, and special diets. I am comfortable doing this with other animals :) I work a full time job during the week, hours 7 am - 3:30 pm. Am looking for supplemental income by providing pet care to those in need. I am available after 4:30 pm during the week, and weekends. I have a fenced in yard for my for dog, and a crate available if needed. I would prefer caring for your pets at your home but am willing to bring them to my home if they are dog and cat friendly. I have a senior dog who has some trouble getting around so we have ramps, but he prefers dogs that are smaller than he is, about 55 lbs. My pets are treated like kings and queens in our home and I would provide the same care for your fur babies!

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of pets over the years and loved every moment. I will truly care for them as if I would care for my own. Their safety is incredibly important to me. Pet care fits into my routine because I’m passionate and make it happen. I work until the same time daily and keep an organized schedule. I care for them as if they are my own. Their safety and well being are my top priority. Understanding their requirements is key. All animals deserve love and care.

“HIGHLY RECOMMEND Taylor is a caring, loving and wonderful dog sitter. She handled an incident with my dogs amazingly. Because I was out of town, I was very happy with the way she handled everything. I received info and photos of the incident.”

“Karen did a wonderful job sitting for our geriatric greyhound in our home! Very reliable and put our minds at ease with regular updates and pictures. Would highly recommend!”

About: I have grown up with animals my whole life—from horses to guinea pigs and every animal in between—and I truly love them all. I know how special they are and how much they mean to us, and I would be honored to help give your sweet animals some of my love! I am all for the cuddles and the playful walks, and because I know it takes a lot of trust to share your pets, I promise to treat them as if they were my very own! While I work a day job that keeps me busy through the morning and early afternoon, I am fully open and dedicated to supporting your pets after 4:00 PM on weekdays, and completely available all day long on the weekends! Whether it's an afternoon walk, evening feeding, overnight care, or weekend fun, I'll make sure your furry family members get all the love, cuddles, and attention they need around my schedule. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is keeping them comfortable, safe, and happy in their own familiar environment. Whether I'm dropping by for a visit, taking them on a fun walk, or house sitting, I make sure their routine stays completely on track. From on-time feeding and plenty of potty breaks to lots of playtime and evening cuddles, I treat your pets and your home with the utmost respect and care—treating them just like my own family.

About: As a pet owner (cats, dogs and hamsters), I am offering the same care I looked for when I had pet sitting needs—dependability and love for pets. I work full time remotely so I’m flexible during the week. I do travel with my job and many of my weekends are full. I will keep my schedule updated so times are known when I can help. I am willing to watch your dog or cat at your house. I currently have a friendly cat but he doesn’t understand not all dogs love him. If I watch your dog at my house, the dog would need to meet my cat first to make sure they are ok. I do have a fenced in yard.

About: My name is Paige and I am currently working at a local dog daycare where I have been employed since February 2017. I also work at a local boarding kennel and am a dog trainer there. I’ve worked there since January 2022. My dogs and I compete in dog sports (dock diving, disc, etc) as much as we can! I have even gotten some clients into it. I went to college for a year in Florida (Lynn University) and studied biology, taking part in their animal welfare club and the zoological society. I have my associate in arts from Kalamazoo Valley Community College. I have a certificate in Dog Emotion and Cognition from Duke University. I also have a certificate of attendance for a canine fitness workshop hosted by Elite K9/Northeast K9/Colorado State University Pueblo. My schedule varies throughout the week as I work a full time job and teach training classes. Please reach out to me about my schedule to accommodate pick up/drop off. I have several personal dogs, so safety is first and foremost for me. I frequently have at least two client dogs staying with me. I utilize crates, baby gates, and x-pens to ensure safety. We live on an acre and it is completely fenced in. If you are looking for a place to board your pup, but want a more intimate and home-like setting, look no further! Rest assured that your dog will be physically and mentally stimulated daily. Dogs are kept in 4’ x 4.5’ x 4.5’ runs with access to water 24/7. All runs include stall mats and/or Kuranda dog beds (cots)- which are great for the older guys and gals! Your dog will be let out at least 3x daily for a minimum of 30 minutes each time for potty breaks. Several hours are spent outside daily for group play if your dog tolerates it. Yard time includes anything and everything your pet loves to do: sniffing, exploring, fetch, pool time, basking in the sun, and playing with other pups (if they are ok with others!). Benebones are included with each run! Blankets/beds/toys are welcomed if your dog is not a chewer or shredder. Otherwise I provide dog-safe bedding. When dogs are not playing, they are resting in their 4.5 x 4.5ft x 4.5ft kennels with comfy raised cot beds (stall mats also available). Due to the large amount of dogs I have here (including my own), this is crucial for their safety and provides structure for all. I currently work split shifts between the daycare, boarding & training, which allows me to be home at random hours of the day to let dogs out. Quieter than a boarding kennel!!! And daycare included! Dogs are kept in spacious kennel runs with their very own comfy beds (personal stuff encouraged if not a shredder!) if they are not outside running around being crazy dogs. My yard is completely fenced.
