House Sitting
Thoughtful, in-home care that keeps your pets comfortable in their own familiar surroundings.
Your pets stay in their own home while I provide personalized care, companionship and attention to their usual routines. It’s a comfortable, familiar option for pets who are happiest in their own space — and reassuring for their people, too.
Care That Feels Like Home
House sitting lets your pets stay in the place they know best. I stay in your home overnight, keeping their routines as familiar as possible while giving them the companionship, attention and care they need.
Personalized Attention
Your pets aren’t simply checked on and left to themselves. I spend time getting to know their individual personalities, watching for changes in behaviour and giving each pet the kind of attention they respond to best.
Familiar Routines
Meals, walks, medications, bedtime routines and all those little habits that make up a normal day can continue as closely as possible while you’re away.
Regular Updates
You’ll receive regular photo and video updates so you can see how your pets are doing and stay connected while you’re away.
Home Presence
Your pets have someone there overnight, and your home continues to feel lived in while you’re away. I’ll also follow your instructions for household details like mail, garbage, plants and other agreed-upon tasks.
Is House Sitting a Good Fit for Your Pet?
House Sitting is a particularly good fit for:
- Pets who are happiest in their own familiar surroundings
- Senior, anxious, timid or sensitive pets
- Multi-pet households
- Pets with established routines or special-care needs
- Pets who benefit from overnight companionship
- Households with dogs, cats or small animals
Medical, behavioural, mobility and other special-care needs should be discussed before booking so we can make sure they can be safely and comfortably managed.
