House Sitter in Citrus Heights, California

I'm an
Individual
I recently moved from the Bay Area, where I was named one of the top pet and house sitters in my region. With over 50 clients and countless house sitting assignments all along the Bay Area, I bring to Citrus Heights over 11 years experience as both a pet sitter and house sitter. I worked for a pet sitting company for 6 years, and am extremely excited to establish myself in Citrus Heights and surrounding areas. I am looking for anyone who will be traveling and needs someone to stay in their home and/or watch their pets. I have my own transportation in the event of an emergency and am able to stay in your home for as long as needed, as this is my full time job. I have more than enough experience with pet sitting, and can administer medication in the event it is needed. I also enjoy caring for senior pets and those with special needs. I specialize in short and long term overnight home stays. Please contact me for pricing information so we can discuss your needs, as I do not charge a flat fee for all services. I have experience working with dogs, cats, chickens, birds, fish, exotic animals, etc. I am an excellent communicator and provide text, e-mail, and photo updates for you when you leave your pet or home in my care. I am always available and reachable while you are out of town should you need to get a hold of me. Due to the fact I only care for one client at a time, I am able to spend as much time as needed caring for your property. I am not just present throughout the day, but all night as well, since I do not have numerous visits to make for other clients while your home or pet is in my care. In the event I must contact you regarding something I may not be clear on, or an emergency occurs, I will contact you until you are reached, or will call the emergency numbers I require before you leave. So far to date, I have had to be a liaison between both client and landscaper when a tree was uprooted and crashed into the side of the house where I was staying (this occurred during my stay with two different clients, in two different states!). I have also had my client's awning blow into her neighbor's house during an intense wind storm. Recently, my client had put his house on the market and I stayed overnight with his pups, wherein I had to have constant contact with Realtors, put the dogs outside, and then leave the home while it was shown. In another instance, a client's home driveway was being repaved and I overlooked the daily ins and outs of the whole operation. Whatever issue may occur in your absence, I remain calm, go through the proper channels, and will keep you updated every step of the way. It is my responsibility to not only take superior care of your animals, but home as well. I do not like things being out of place and take extra measures to leave your home and property in the same-if not better-condition you left it in! I am extremely clean and am notorious for over-cleaning. While in your home, I provide home services, such as mail and newspaper retrieval, watering, taking out trash, collecting important packages, and anything else your home needs in order to be maintained during your absence. In the event you have pets, I will constantly be with them and will follow their daily routines with strict adherence. I will feed, provide water, walk, play, provide pet transportation, any everything else in between to make sure your extended family members are loved unconditionally. I am always happy to help in any way I can! I am looking for those in need of both short and long-term house and/or pet care. Please let me know how I can help. I look forward to hearing from you!

Recommendations

Kristen would be my very first recommendation to anyone in need of sitting. I used Kristen's services when I was on a business trip for 2 weeks. I asked if she would also be able to care for my little Chihuahua, and she was more than happy to. When I returned, not only was my house in a far nicer condition than when I left it, my little boy was enamored with her! He is normally quite skittish with strangers, but he was taken with her immediately. I have nothing but praise for her work. Everything in my house was cleaned, even things that I had left prior to leaving on my trip! She definitely goes above and beyond and is worth every penny!
