Dog Sitting in Alva

“Emily is absolutely wonderful. Super caring and great with pets. She’s great at sending pictures of my pups when she does visits, and always picks up the phone. I wouldn’t want to have anyone else watching my pups!!”

About: I grew up taking care of animals since i was 6 years old. I had a Chihuahua for the duration of my childhood, then i adopted a kitten. Over the years i have also fostered numerous kittens including ones that had to be bottle fed. I am currently a full time student and have a pretty consistent schedule. I am mostly available weekends and morning and evening on the weekdays. I always approach them gently and calmly, allowing them to become familiar with me and comfortable. I look out for cues when pet is uncomfortable and needs space.

About: Throughout my high school and college experiences, I have fulfilled my volunteer hours working with local humane socialites! Animals have always had a special place in my heart. Having earned my bachelor’s in psychology, I was able to take a course about therapy using animals! Currently I am a fine dining server for a restaurant only open for dinner! So I am only ever unavailable for 4-5 hours most days, but can make stops before and after going to work!! My schedule has made me very flexible, and I would love to help those take care of their fur babies who may need an extra hand! I am currently employed at a fine dining seafood restaurant job that is open 4PM- 10PM everyday! I wake up early and have the whole day available until my nightly shift. And, I never would mind making a stop after I get off work! I just moved recently, so I am scouting 2 cats myself. With that, I recently moved out of my ex- lover’s house where he had a cat and 2 dogs. There was a completely fenced in backyard for the puppies to play, and plenty of space for the cat to roam! I’m my new house, we have an extra room that will be dedicated to the kitty’s and will be called the “cat room”, while we also have quite a large back patio where they can freely roam and get fresh air!!

“Melissa has excellent communication and takes great care of our boy Simba when we are out of town. I feel great knowing that Melissa will be there every day to make sure Simba is doing great.”

“Regina did a wonderful job with my senior dog. She made my dog feel at home while I was away. Regina is a great communicator, and made sure my dogs needs were met. I came home to my dog who was content and relaxed. When I need dog sitting, I will look to her first.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have experience caring for multiple dogs at once. In 2021, I helped deliver and raise a litter of 4 puppies and kept one to continue caring for as she grows. I’ve managed a home with up to 7 dogs at the same time, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’m experienced with puppies, feeding schedules, basic training reinforcement, and creating a calm, safe, loving environment for every dog I watch. I offer walks, drop-ins, daycare, and overnight boarding with a flexible schedule throughout the week. I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, and care throughout the day. In my eyes, a pet’s needs and well-being always come first. Whether it’s playtime, exercise, cuddles, or sticking to their routine, I make sure every pet feels comfortable and cared for during their stay. I’m also happy to accommodate last-minute bookings whenever possible. I provide a clean, safe, dog-friendly home with supervision throughout the day. Dogs get fresh water, walks, and consistent care. I follow the routines, feeding instructions, and safety precautions provided by each client to insure a safe environment.

About: I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’m dependable and attentive, with experience housesitting and dog sitting for friends and family. I’ve cared for dogs of different ages and personalities, from playful puppies to older pets who just need some extra patience and comfort. My schedule is very flexible right now, which means I can give pets plenty of attention, exercise, and care whenever it’s needed. I enjoy spending time with animals, so fitting pet care into my daily routine feels natural and rewarding. I like to stick to your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and safe. I’ll handle feeding, walks, playtime, and of course lots of love and attention. My goal is to make sure they’re happy and relaxed while you’re away.

About: I've taken care of pets most of my life. I am starting to gain expert/professional experience. I absolutely appreciate and love time spent with animals of all sorts I have plenty of time and an open schedule. As I am new to Rover, I am excited to start this journey. I look forward to serving your family! I have a fenced in yard. I can crate your pet. I will spoil your furr baby; as long as you're happy with doing so.

About: I have had dogs and cats all of my life and have always been around them. I love dogs as if they were my own. I currently work at a hospital as a phlebotomist. My mornings are always free all week and I’m off two days per week. Currently not in school and will return to school next year! I offer drop in visits and dog walking services! I am more than comfortable playing around with doggies, giving them treats, feeding/ watering them , taking them out to handle their business when doing drop in visits. As well as for dog walking I have a doggie of my own and love taking walks with her and personally leash trained her as when she was younger she did not like leashes as much. I will care for your fur babies as if they were my own!

About: I grew up taking care of, owning, and helping raise all kinds of different dogs. Great Danes, puggles, pit bulls, and small dogs like terriers and shitzu’s. I have always been the one friends and family have called to look after their pets while they’re gone. I love them like they’re my own and go above and beyond to make sure they’re comfortable when their parents aren’t around! I have had the blessing of being able to work from home Monday, Wednesdays, Thursday’s, and Fridays with weekends off. The only day i am unavailable during the week is Tuesdays! I want to fill my free time with something I love! I have a very large fenced in yard and we do have one dog of our own who is extremely friendly to keep your fur baby company but if you’d feel more comfortable keeping them separate I am easily able to do that as well as he has a dog bed in my daughters room that he loves being in.

About: We are a mommy daughter dynamic duo excited to watch your fur baby. I had pets my entire childhood and into early adulthood and recently added a fur baby to our family. We have taking care of dogs for about 4 years prior to Rover and have been using Rover since summer of 2021. We have always been told we are very trusted, responsable, and dependable. We have regular, repeat customers because we love every fur baby as our own. In our home all fur babies we care for become family and get to choose where they sleep or who they sleep with if that's what they prefer. We have plenty of time for your pups or older dogs to play, care for, and go on walks of course!! We can even watch Chihuahua movies series if that’s what they’re into. I was a stay at home mom for a long time but after recent changes I had to rejoin the workforce. I am pretty flexible with my time and being that my teenage kids get out of school at different hours, fur babies would not be alone or than 4 hours at a time We have a fenced in large yard with very friendly neighbors. We have a bearded dragon that no pets seem to notice unless we point him out. We have a puppy Apollo who's already experienced and great with other fur friends. We can have your pet in a crate if needed whatever works best for your fur baby. We are looking forward to caring for your fur baby.

“Our dogs seemed well cared for and happy upon our return.”

About: As a Veterinary Assistant, I took care of all kinds of dogs. Although, I haven't been a dog sitter before, my experience taking care of animals in the medical field would help me be the best dog sitter there is. I'm currently working 3 times a week, so I'll have plenty of time to play with the pups! I'll have availability for pet sitting during the weekends and and weekdays after 7pm. I would give them the food they are required to get, walk them, and play with them. As Veterinary Assistant I know that some pets require a more specialized care, so I'll need to know beforehand if you're pets eats a specialized food or any medications they need to get.
