House Sitting in Alsea Rivera

“Took great care of both my cats, one of which was a baby kitten that needed to be bottle fed. She also bathed the kitten and gave my adult cat meds along with playtime overall a great sitter :)”

“Tara was incredible with our pups! She asked all the right questions before her stay and then treated my dogs exactly like we do while we were gone. I never for a moment worried about the dogs or my house for the week we were gone. She's amazing and we are so lucky to have found her.”

About: I’m passionate about providing loving and reliable care for pets. With several years of experience and a lifelong love for animals, I understand that every pet is unique. I offer a calm and patient approach, making sure your furry family member feels comfortable and safe in their own home environment. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles on the couch, I’m here to give your pet the attention and care they deserve while you’re away. I have currently retired, allowing me to offer a very flexible schedule, 7 days a week. I have a reliable car. Not opposed to taking dogs for a fun ride to hike a trail, or on long walks. You can count on regular updates and photos, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members

“Great communication! Her demeanor, experience and attention to detail made it easy to entrust the care of our home and furry kids in her capable hands. Would recommend! 👍”

“Christopher was great again with our corgi boys! We realized as we were leaving that their food would likely run out while we were away, and Christopher offered to run to the pet store which we so appreciated! Thanks for going above and beyond!”

“Clover is a dog whisperer! My dogs can be particular on who they like, but they took right to her and settled right down. We'll definitely book her on our next trip to the coast!”

About: I have been taking care of animals all my life, and pet-sitting professionally for over 10 years now. I am particularly experienced and confident in caring for senior animals, pets needing medication, and those who are particularly shy or need that extra emotional consideration. You'll notice me take the extra time to get to know your pet and the nuances of their personality and needs. I offer animals the slowness and presence needed for deep listening and attunement: two qualities that help build trust. I am highly organized, detail-oriented, and good at communication. I'm used to planning my schedule and time around the needs of the animals I'm caring for, and am always ready to apply my extensive knowledge for unexpected situations that may arise. Some of my recent clients include a rowdy pack of 5 dogs of various size and breed, a senior cat with hyperthyroidism who switches her food preferences daily, a blind and deaf senior dog who loves to play, and a farm sanctuary with over 20 animals, including pigs rescued from a neglect situation and feral cats being socialized for the first time. If your animal needs a bit more time and care to feel comfortable around someone new, takes medication or is navigating ongoing health conditions, or is at higher likelihood of needing veterinarian intervention while you're away, these are situations where I have both experience and confidence. For me, animal care isn't just about completing all the tasks that need to be done for the well-being of our animal family members. It's about creating a relationship of trust with the animals relying on me, as well as their human guardians. Entrusting your beloved pet to another person, as well as opening your home to them, is something you deserve to feel secure and confident in. And your pet deserves to feel truly cared for, understood, and prioritized while you're away. With my years of experience both personally and professionally, and my special skills for medical and emotional complexity, I know I can provide a pet-care experience where trust flows in all directions. Pet-care is my main job (and joy) which I orient the rest of my living schedule around. I have lots of flexibility to form my schedule around your animal's needs. My most commonly booked form of pet-sitting is overnight care in the pet's home. This can put the pets at ease and lets them maintain their usual routines. I have lots of experience doing overnights, and am a clean, considerate, and respectful house guest, to the recommendation of all of my clients (happy to give references). I also offer visits / drop-ins throughout the day, and am consistent and timely in these visits.

“Rene was great. This was a short stay, but she communicated well with us and sent photos. Porterhouse was well taken care of and was happy to see us when we returned home.”

“Thanks for taking good care of our velcro dog! (He just loves having someone to sit next to him at all times).”

About: Owner of a Siberian husky for over a decade. Have trained her since she was a puppy. She is now a senior and requires minimal walks compared to when she was young. She gets along with cats really well and is around farm animals frequently. Working 40 hours a week while managing pet care is essential, I am able to work around my schedule as fit for the animal's needs. Please inform me if any needs are requested to make sure everything, like fresh water, is taken care of. I offer care at the clients home, which I have experience in. I am usually in the same room as my pets, so I will often be in the same area with your pet while they are under supervision. Please inform me at least a day in advance for booking.

About: Hello! My name is Jasmine and I love furry beings of all kinds. I would especially love to take your dog(s) on walks this winter. Growing up I lived with many different pets because my mom is also an animal lover and a vet tech. I have experience with sitting and transporting dogs, cats, and even rats. I also have some experience with goats and chickens. For 2 years I worked through Citizenshipper which is a platform that connects pet owners with pet transporters. And have gone on many several-day road trips with pets. This involves many walks, potty breaks, photo updates, and meal stops, as well as overnight care. I’m no longer on that platform but offer the same services here on Rover. Trusting me to care and be responsible for your pet is an honor that I never take lightly! Feel free to message me with any questions. -Jasmine I have full availability to care for your pet every day or night of the week if need be! I want this to be my full time job. I will care for your pets as if they were my own! Let's talk about what your pet(s) needs in order to be comfortable while you're gone so I can accommodate them 😊
