House Sitting

 Pet owners know that most pets adjust better to their owner’s absence and experience less anxiety and stress when they can remain in their home environments. Last Minute Pet Sitters can make this possible by providing a live-in carer/house sitter. In addition to meals, walk & exercise, playtime, cleaning litter boxes (cats) our professional pet sitters may also administer medications, and perform other pet-care duties. This arrangement is ideal for sick, elderly, disabled dogs, dogs with separation anxiety or cats.

If you would rather a live-in pet sitter for your pets and added security to your home while you are away, our combined house and pet sitting may be something you should consider.

Even if you have an alarm system, house sitters are invaluable. If you leave your home to go on vacation, business or for any extended period, your best defence is having an actual person in your home.

If people are in, a burglar targeting your home, will move on to a house that appears empty. While our cat visits enables us to make a few trips to your home per day to feed your cat, collect mail, open curtains, water plants which can throw off criminals, that still leaves about 23 hours in the day that your home is vulnerable to intrusion or other catastrophes.

Don’t have a pet? Our carefully vetted Pet and House Sitters are also able to give your home a lived in look even if you are not a pet owner.

We are able to keep our House Sitting rates low because our sitters are either retired or are freelancers who work from home and make themselves available a few times a year for a change of scenery, as such they don’t rely on it for a living.
