About: Kind, caring, responsible adult with experience caring for various animals and/Or houses. Very professional and clean sitter looking for opportunities to work with similar clients. I am newly retired from 9-5 work and I have a flexible schedule that allows for me to spend time loving on your pets. I can accommodate any schedule or needs that you have for your pet, in your home. I prefer small to medium pets but am open to any pets that are easy to care for
About: I am an animal lover who has had dogs and cats my whole life. Currently, I have 1 large pup and a cat and I enjoy those floofs with all my heart. I am a very active person and I work from home, so your loved one would not be left unattended for very long, if at all during their stay. I'm currently working part time, so I have plenty of time in my schedule to love on your fur babies. I enjoy all animals, even fish and birds! I have a large single family home with a fenced yard and regular host doggy play dates with my Belgian Malinois, Hugo. I also have a large park nearby that is walkable.
About: I have been caring for animals for as long as I have been alive. I am more doing this to help those with cats as I have a house full of them and have a hard time finding help for them than for my dog when going on vacation. I volunteer with an animal rescue and can administer shots as well as give meds to cats and dogs. I have 3 cats and 1 big dog and normally about 5 fosters that I work with. If you hire me for drop ins I will make sure to sit with your pets and give them lots of love or play whichever they need. I am active duty Navy for 17 years and counting, very caring and trustworthy.
About: I have owned a variety of pets all my life - from horses to dogs. My passion of animals allows me to provide the best quality care for your pets as well as my own. I currently have the sweetest pitbull American bully. I got him at 6 weeks old and trained him to be the best buddy ever. I will treat your animal with as much respect and care as I would with my own puppy. That is a guarantee! I am able to come to your house to care for your animals as many times a day as you may need, and I am open to following any special requests. *I am also available to do grooming and bathing, at your location or mine :) I highly encourage booking walks after hours on the weekdays or weekends! I can walk as long or as far as you need! I’m a registered dietitian at a skilled nursing facility with flexible hours. I also have the luxury of working from home sometimes so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pup. I’m hoping to do whatever you need or want for your pup. I love taking my own dogs on a long walks and swims. Whatever you need, I will do.
About: Hi, I'm Marissa! I'm one of those people who, before I came out of my shell, spent more time with animals than people. Sometimes I still do. I've had dogs and cats all my life, and also rode horses starting just before I was 4. I have 9 years of experience on Rover and another 2 independently dog walking and sitting before that. I’ve cared for many kinds of dogs and cats, fish, turtles, donkeys, a family of racoons, and more. And I have a lot of experience caring for older animals and animals with medical conditions. I also used to volunteer with my mom transporting rescue dogs with Echo Dog White German Shepherd rescue. I am a homebody for the most part, so once I'm there I'm probably not going anywhere. My capital W Work is writing - I'm 13 years into an elven magic realism epic screenplay/novel series, it is my passion project and pet/housesitting gives me the time to tend to that vision, and fur babies to keep me company! Walking and playing with them keeps me active and in my beloved nature. It is a great joy to give people peace of mind while they travel, knowing their home and furbabies are in good hands. I know how stressful it can be - I was born in the Northeast and then moved to Nashville when I was 12 so my mom and I would drive up there to visit family, but we would often bring our dog and cats with us on that 13 hr ride because we didn’t have anyone we trusted to watch them. It’s a great time, unless it’s a family emergency. Now, I get to be that person for other people! My clients relaxing, knowing that they can have fun or do what needs doing and that their fur babies are taken care of at home - that is priceless and never gets old. If you have 3 or more pets, I'm happy to give a discount. I know how hard it can be trying to find care for them when you have many. Feel free to reach out! Pets are family. I will make sure they receive the best care possible! I'm a night owl myself when I'm home but whatever their routine is, I will stick to that as much as I can. For dogs, walks are included in housesitting if you want that. And any plant and garden care etc. Totally depends on your and your pet's needs. I'm so excited to look after your fur baby!
About: hi there! my name is Shannon. I've been taking care of animals since I was 7 years old, I've had all sorts of pets in my lifetime and I absolutely love them. I'm a college student looking to make extra income and also hoping to pursue my dreams of becoming a veterinarian! I have 2 reptiles and 2 fur babies. I adore animals of all kinds. It is a priority to make sure every pet is happy, loved, and cared for, and that's what I'm here to do! You can always depend on me to care for your fur baby and keep them very happy while you are away. It is something I love to do! Available anytime on the weekends, I do have another job on the weekdays from 5-10 and college classes from 9:30-10:45 am on Mondays and Wednesdays, but no other commitments other than those! I am also flexible and don't mind changing my schedule around in order to fit your needs with your pets. I would treat your fur baby as if he/she was one of my own, and make sure their tail never stops wagging! I make sure your doggie/kitties is happy, well fed and taken care of, give them cuddles, take them for walks if needed, and of course give them all the love and attention they rightfully deserve.
“Summer went above and beyond to make sure Louie was comfortable and happy. There’s nothing better than feeling safe knowing your baby will be cared for by someone who loves animals as much as you!!”
About: I have worked Animal Rescue, Fostering, Rehabilitation, and Adoptions the last 6 years! I understand pet parents, can easily follow instructions, and will stay alert to your pet needs! I will value your pet as I would my own! I currently work remotely, so I am extremely flexible. If not house sitting, I can make as many or little stops at your house as needed. I prefer to not board animals at my home. I do not have a fenced in yard, so it is not very suitable for a dog.
About: I don’t just love dogs—I understand them. With a decade of experience in dog training, behavioral rehabilitation, and managing a full-service dog daycare and boarding facility, I’ve cared for dogs of every age, breed, size, and personality. From energetic puppies to senior dogs, anxious pets, and those with special behavioral needs, I know how to create a safe, structured, and loving environment where every dog can feel comfortable. I'm currently a part of a training team here locally that works with dogs who need basic obedience, work on reactivity, and aggression issues. Not only focusing on the actions of the dog but bridging the gap between parents and their pets to have a more fulfilling life together. I have a fenced in shaded yard with plenty of space to explore or play fetch. We also live on 10 acres with a short trail to a food plot if your pup prefers a leashed walk. As well as 4 ft X 5 ft structured kennels for overnight care and a stainless steel tub and dryer to give them the spa day they deserve!
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have always had pets of my own, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I also have professional experience working in an animal hospital, where I’ve cared for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, personalities, and needs. My schedule is currently flexible, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I’m happy to work with you to find times that fit your pet’s normal routine, and I’ll always communicate in advance about my availability. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine will always be my priority. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, potty breaks, and any special routines they’re used to. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your pet and your home. I’ll treat your space with respect, keep doors and gates securely closed, maintain a clean environment, and make sure your pet is safe and comfortable at all times. I’m also happy to provide regular photos and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾
