House Sitting in Armada

About: Hello! I’m experienced with boarding tasks (feeding, administering medications, etc.), basic training, and in-home pet care. While I can't host pets at my place, I love coming to yours for walks, backyard play sessions, and overnight stays. **Dogs:** Happy to tire them out with walks, play, and potty breaks. **Cats:** Patient and gentle — I'll take the time to earn their trust. Previously worked with a small pet care business visiting clients' homes, so I'm comfortable following your specific instructions and treating your space with respect. Your pet stays happy at home. You stay worry-free. It’s a win-win! I’m currently an open book, working on helping my mom with her dogs and their training in my free time. I would be available 24/7 for your pet care needs. I don’t have the room to board dogs or cats in my current situation, however I am very experienced with boarding tasks and basic training. I absolutely love taking walks or just doing some play sessions in the backyard and enjoy getting kitties to warm up to me. I would mainly be looking for walks/play and potty visits, or pet sitting in the owner’s home.

“Bonnie was absolutely wonderful with our dog Bruno, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Before the booking, Bonnie took the time to come over for a meet and greet so we could go through Bruno’s routine, needs, and any special instructions. That immediately gave us confidence that Bruno would be in great hands. While we were away, Bonnie sent thoughtful updates throughout the day, which we really appreciated. She was a fantastic communicator, prompt, reliable, and very attentive. She took Bruno on a nice long walk, and the sweetest surprise was when she gave him a little St. Patrick’s Day scarf. It was adorable and showed just how much care she puts into the dogs she looks after. When we returned home, she had also left a lovely “thank you for choosing me to look after Bruno” card along with special treats for him. Such a thoughtful touch. Bonnie was incredibly gentle, kind, and clearly loves what she does. We completely trust her with both our dog and our home, and we would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter. Thank you again, Bonnie, Bruno already misses you! 🐾”

“Another great stay with Melissa. She spent a week with our sweet but quirky dog and we came home to a happy healthy dog and a clean house. Great communication throughout the week with lots of pictures. Highly recommend!”

About: I have worked in the veterinary medical field for 6+ years and have thousands of hours of experience as a veterinary assistant. I am comfortable with all types of dogs and cats, with all different personalities- that’s what makes them all unique and I love it! I am currently very flexible with my weekly routine and I am more than happy to meet with you beforehand if you feel more comfortable. As an avid cat owner, I have Toulouse naturally leash-trained. I have an enclosure for him so he can enjoy the outside, while also being safe. At clients’ homes, I follow all instructions to make sure the pet is safe. I also will make sure the pet is always in my sight if outside.

About: Hi, I’m Alex. I’ve been caring for pets for friends and family for years — dogs, cats, and various small animals. I understand that pets have social and emotional needs as much as physical ones, and I make it a priority to give them attention, companionship, and care that matches their personality and routine. I enjoy spending time with cats and making sure they feel secure and engaged, whether that’s playing, cuddling, or simply being present. For dogs, I’m comfortable with both high-energy breeds that need plenty of activity and older pups who do best with a slower pace. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walks, and overnight stays, and I always aim to be reliable, attentive, and consistent so you can feel at ease knowing your pets are in good hands. Right now I have a very flexible schedule, which means I can easily fit in drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays throughout the week. I like to build my day around the pets I’m caring for - whether that’s making sure dogs get the exercise and attention they need or setting aside time to play with cats and check in on them. Having that flexibility lets me give each pet consistent care without feeling rushed. In a client’s home, I always follow their routine as closely as possible so pets feel comfortable and secure. This includes feeding on schedule, making sure they have fresh water, taking dogs out for walks or playtime, cleaning litter boxes, and spending quality time with them so they don’t feel lonely. I’m respectful of the home, keep things tidy, and make sure pets are safe and cared for until their family is back.

“Lauren was amazing! She won my bubbies hearts - even my lil toughy, trippy. He has a new friend and misses her so much! My lil guys can sometimes be hard to win over and she won their hearts within the first 30 seconds. Lauren was very flexible with my ever changing schedule - and was very understanding. Will definitely use her again. in fact, the only reason i would even consider not recommending her is bc i want her to be available for my boys when they need her! Thank you Lauren for making the week a lot less stressful for all of us!”

About: Hi, thanks for checking out my profile! I’ve taken care of all types of dogs since I’ve been a kid, and eventually became my hometown’s go-to “dog watcher.” I would stay with some dogs multiple weeks in their home, or them at mine. I love the connection I get to have with them, and have grown up always having a dog in my family. I can care for yours in any way you may need! I am most available for walks. I can’t wait to chat and see how I can be of service to you and your best friend! With the job i have, i can do drop ins during the week. I am open to boarding dogs at my own home depending on the size, and can always come to your place and watch them from the comfort of their own space. I work Monday-Friday, but can visit them in the morning and afternoon, and evening, and if i am doing overnight care, stay with them throughout the evening. Weekends I am available, but will need a bit of notice as I work during the week, and can have busy weekends sometimes. The profile says I live in an apartment, but have since moved to a small house with a decent sized yard for running and playing. If you prefer I stay at your place/do check ins, I can do that. I feed, walk, play, and take outside to go to the bathroom when needed. And of course if you have something else in your dogs routine, I can do my best to do that as well!

“Molly watched our human society rescue dog and her six newborn puppies. She did a great job and treated Lola and her pups like they were her own dogs. Molly has such a calming disposition and was so kind we knew the dogs were in the perfect hands for the day. She sent pics and updates during our time away. We would definitely use her again!!”

Valerie K.

“Kelsey watched our 2 cats while we were out of town for a few days. She sent tons of updates with photos/videos throughout the stay. We came home to a very clean house and happy kitties! Will definitely book again!!”

Natalie Z.

“Gabby gave us great peace of mind while we were gone for 4 days, the first time we had ever used Rover and left our dog with someone other than family! Our dog and house were well cared for and she gave great updates, often with perfect timing throughout the day when we were starting to wonder how he was doing. We have great confidence in reaching out to her for future trips!”

Andrew M.

“Christine has now watched our pups twice and we definitely trust her with our girls! She is great with them and knows exactly how to give them love and care when we have to go away!”

About: I’ve cared for my family pets my whole life and started pet sitting in high school for neighbors with both dogs and cats. I now have two dogs of my own and treat every animal with love, patience, and care. I currently work part-time and am available Sunday through Wednesday. I’m in college, so mornings and afternoons work best for me to care for your pets. I take care to follow each pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I’m respectful of your home and will ensure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away.

About: I have had pets of my own since I was just a child, and I also volunteered at Making Miracles Pet Rescue for 6 years in a row. I have been a top option for pet sitting with family and friends, as I honestly just get joy from the presence of pets. I have experience with many breeds of dogs, big and small, as well as cats! I understand their behaviors more than the average person, and I promise to give your pet(s) the attention they deserve. I do work full-time, 7am-4pm EST M-F. I work from home on Thursdays, so my availability on Thursdays is a lot better. Any other day of the week, just ask! I'm sure we can work something out. I am free on weekends, given no prior plans! I had a dog for 15 years, so my house is definitely dog friendly and puppy proof! I do not have a fenced in yard, but it is a big yard where your pet can play. If I am coming to your home, I promise to be respectful and considerate.

About: I have had pets since I was a baby. I love caring for animals and having them around. They bring true joy to my life . I have taken care of several different breeds of dogs and cats.I have had clients, that I cared for and also cared for their animals. I am accustomed to feeding, bathing, walking, cuddling, playing, and training dogs, cats, bunnies, and would consider exotic animals. I am truly a lover of all animals. They provide us with undconditional love and companionship. It is one of the best things life has to offer. I took in my amazing cat Ziggie who was a stray and drawn to me. He kept visiting us. He was truly a remarkable part of our family. We had him for 9 years and found out he had asthma, scar tissue on his lungs at the age of 5. The vet was unsure how long he would live for, but with treatments and lots of love he lived to be almost 14 years of age after fighting lymphoma. I learned to take care of a very special boy. He was so affectionate and came to me when I needed his companionship. I became use to giving him medications and having to monitor his condition daily with his cancer. It was tough but the first round of chemo, he kicked it. Then when it came back he got sick and deteriorated very quickly. It's very sad but I also remember the positivity and joy he left with me in my heart and memories. I've grown up with 3 different dogs and cared for them as a young girl, I developed such a wonderfdul bond with them. I care for my friend's puppy and train him when she needs a sitter. He stayed with us for 9 days when his owner went out of town. We trained him, fed, bathed, groomed, and walked this sweet little 4 month old Jack Russell. We just love him he is like a part of our family now and spends over night visitas with me. I have experience caring for birds, when I was a young girl I had 2 parakeets that I cared for. They were really great when they sat on my shoulder. It was quite amusing to me. Any opportunity to care for an animal warms my heart and creates a bond that is life long. I am thankful to have had so many wonderful opportunities to form such bonds. I am currrently working part time . I can arrange shifts around my schedule. This allows me more flexibility so I can work with animals. I have nice parks close to my home, that I can take pets to for their walks. I can do the same at your home. I can crate the pet when it is necessary.
