About the business
Hi, we are a Husband and Wife team who love to help "pets with people"!
We offer to house/pet sit because dogs, cats and other pets are far more comfortable and far happier if able to stay in their own environment. Familiar sights, surroundings and scents are infinitely preferable to uprooting animals and putting them in kennels/catteries or other locations away from their home. Pets crave companionship and kennels are no substitute for human interaction and proper exercise.
Experienced house/pet sitters, love and care for pets allowing owners to be away, knowing their fur-babies are happy and well cared for in their own home. THAT'S US! We love animals, caring for animals, and those who love THEM! Pets such as cats, dogs, and other small animals. (Our experiences include: chickens, ducks, rabbits, fish, birds, lizards, and crabs.) We are happy to take pets to the vet if needed, administer pills, creams or other medication, as well as maintain owner-established routines and behaviors including feeding rituals and training issues.
We are happy to groom pets, bathe them when necessary, fuss with them, talk to them and walk with them. We are very familiar with ages birth to seniors, special needs/disabled, pregnancies, delivery, and after care. Over the years, we have given a new life to 14+ rescue puppies, kittens, dogs, & cats.
It's also important to us that homeowners can take worry-free vacations and enjoy holidays knowing their home and property is well cared for. Your benefits:
honest & clean people, non-smokers & non-drug users, fit & active.
home & property owners/leasers in MI, MN, MT, WA.
gardener, handyman, & great problem-solvers.
we'll be able to handle the situation, if something goes wrong.
garden, lawn, flowers, or plants will not be a barren wasteland when you return.
glowing references that we will be happy to share with you.
will not stand you up before you leave or while you're away.
follow house rules and are respectful of your property.
maintain energetic, peaceful living environments w/ clean living habits.
We are happy to give daily or weekly updates during your time away (although if you prefer not to be disturbed that is okay too). We also provide a thorough cleaning service, free of charge of course, at the end of each sit so you arrive home to a sparkling clean house!
Hope to hear from you soon; we d love to hear more about you and your fur family.

Keith and Melanie get a strong recommendation from us!
We were out of town for 3 weeks and looking for someone to take care of our cat Ash. We exchanged a couple of emails with Keith and Melanie before meeting them on Skype. We could immediately tell they are animal lovers and would take good care of Ash. One small concern was they have two small dogs, which they were upfront about, and we weren't sure how Ash would handle the dogs.
We decided to take a chance on that and asked Keith and Melanie to catsit for us. There is always some uncertainty with letting strangers into your home but with Keith and Melanie we had no reason for concern. They are lovely warm people and very affectionate towards the animals.
During our 3 weeks away they would keep us up to date on how Ash was doing with emails and photos. On our return they had prepared us some dinner and cleaned the house which was very welcome after 24 hours of transit. They even had a small gift for us with a lovely photo of Ash set in a frame.
It was a stressful time for us because we were getting married but with Keith and Melanie having Ash taken good care of was something we didn't need worry about. A big thank you to them and I hope our paths cross again in the future.
