Your Fountain Grove Home Deserves More Than a Boarding Kennel

When you live in Fountain Grove, you've worked hard for your home and your lifestyle–and your dogs are part of that.

Dropping them at a boarding facility means stress, strange smells, unfamiliar faces, and nights away from everything they know. There's a better way.

At Home with Ed brings over 15 years of trusted, high-end pet and house sitting directly to your door.

Ed is trusted by your neighbors in Fountain Grove, stays at your home overnight, keeps your dogs in their routine, and ensures your property looks lived-in and secure while you travel.

Your neighbors won't know you're gone.
Your dogs won't miss a beat.

Travel worry-free–your home and your dog(s) are safe with Ed.

Finding someone we could trust to care for our home and respect our privacy was our top priority. With Ed, it felt like a member of the family was there. He sent us a picture every day, and when our icemaker broke, he handled it immediately—so well, in fact, that we kept receiving mail addressed to ‘Ed Housitter’ for years! His attention to detail and genuine care are unmatched. We’ve trusted Ed with our pets and home for over 20 years, and I’ve recommended him to many others, all of whom have had nothing but high praise. Try him—you’ll be so glad you did!

Pet Sitting in Santa Rosa Reviews

Roseanne N.

Ed has been a trusted pet sitter for years, and I always feel 100% confident leaving my home and pets in his care. He is reliable, always on time, and communicates any concerns right away. I never have to worry while I’m away, knowing everything is in good hands.

Marlene D.

Absolute tranquility—that’s what it feels like knowing Ed is taking care of our pets and home. His daily updates gave us complete peace of mind, and knowing our house was safe made our vacation even better. If you’re lucky enough to book Ed, you’ll never worry about your pets while traveling again!

Char Y.

Our biggest concern was our new dog—he was a handful, and we needed someone experienced. Ed came highly recommended, and he exceeded our expectations.

He took the time to visit twice before our trip to ensure a smooth transition. Throughout our time away, he sent regular updates and photos, and when we returned, our home was spotless, the garden looked amazing, and the bedding was freshly washed.

Ed is truly conscientious, and we returned to a happy dog, a thriving home, and total peace of mind!
