House Sitting Beacon

“Jordan was a member of our family from the start! She is an incredibly caring and detail-oriented sitter, and she made me feel completely comfortable leaving my dear girls in her hands and heart! One of my dogs was needing extra care recovering from a surgery and getting all her meds, and Jordan was perfect. Both my girls loved her and we will definitely have her back! We love you Jordan!!”

“Jennifer jumped in last minute while I was in a pinch and cared well for my cat and listened well to all my instructions. I’d recommend her!”

About: I'm very passionate about taking care of dogs. As your sitter, I'd work to make sure that your dog is not only cared for, but enriched and happy. As of two years ago, my elderly french bulldog, Jeff, started to experience incontinence. Since then, I've played a key role in managing his diaper changes, cleaning up his incontinence, and making sure that his medication is administered at the right time, in the right way. Taking care of Jeff has prepared me for a variety of pet care tasks, which has helped me develop my intuition for other pets's needs as well! While my skillset mainly involves senior dog care, I'm great with middle aged pups and puppies as well. If theres a long, rigorous care list, I'm here for it! I'm currently a part-time student, attending class three days a week. My class schedule runs on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. I would be able to provide services on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays for the time being. Once my semester ends, I’m flexible for more hours. My elderly french bulldog lives at home with me. We have a large, spacious environment, and he is very friendly. My bulldog would be more than willing to share his toys and enrichment activities, as well as his healthy snacks with whichever dog stays with us.

“Thomas -James took great care of my our dog! He was very communcative, I felt very comfortable and my dog was happy as can be when we got home. Thank you!!”

“Leah stayed at our house for two overnights and everything went well! She was communicative and share photos and videos of our pups. She left the house near and clean, and most importantly the pups were happy and healthy when we got home!”

Melissa T.

“Madeline was fantastic! Madeline sent thorough updates every day along with photos of our dog - we really loved these status reports while on vacation. She also went above and beyond so we came home to a clean home after her stay.”

“Kasper is an amazing pet sitter! He was punctual, communicative, and took great care of my home and pets. He was also super caring and sensitive to noticing any little thing that may be off with my dog Goji who can get separation anxiety- even sleeping with him downstairs the first night to ease his nerves. I will def be recommending Kasper to friends and reach out again when I need care!”

About: Hi, I’m Izzy! I’ve been lucky enough to spend over 17 years caring for all sorts of furry and scaly friends, from dogs and cats to reptiles! Growing up, my home was filled two happy pups, and I’ve proudly been the go-to pet sitter for my friends, family, and neighbors ever since. I currently live with a sweet 14-year-old chihuahua who keeps me company at home. While he previously lived happily with other dogs and attended doggy daycare, he’s become more anxious around unfamiliar pets as he’s gotten older. For his comfort, I’m unable to offer boarding in my home at this time, but I’m happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home through house-sitting, drop-in visits and walks. I have 6 years of experience in positive-reinforcement training with puppies & young dogs, improving leash manners & supporting dogs who struggle with reactivity, potty training/housebreaking, and basic commands. I have 4 years of experience providing special care for senior dogs, including administering oral and topical medications, accommodating specific diets, and adjusting care for pups with vision and/or hearing loss. When it comes to our feline friends, I’ve cared for kittens, adult cats, and seniors who are litter-box trained (plus a few little ones still figuring it out!). I also have experience administering oral and topical medications to cats & kittens, accommodating specific diets, and caring for cats with hearing loss. Please note that I do not have experience administering injectable medications to dogs or cats. I can’t wait to meet your pets and make sure they feel loved and well cared for while you’re away. Feel free to message me. I’d love to see if we’re the perfect fit! I work from home full-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide pet care throughout the day! For house-sitting, I can easily bring my workspace with me, so your pets can have company, attention, potty breaks, and walks throughout the workday rather than being left alone for long stretches. I occasionally have in-person meetings, typically no more than 1–2 times per week. When I do, I’m usually away for about 2–2.5 hours and am very rarely gone for more than 3 hours at a time. If my schedule ever requires a longer stretch away from home, I’ll know in advance and will always communicate that before booking to make sure it works for your pet’s needs and routine. I’m available for weekday and weekend care, including house-sitting, walks, and drop-in visits. While I previously offered boarding, I’m unfortunately unable to host pets in my own home at this time. I currently live with a senior chihuahua has become more anxious around unfamiliar animals as he’s gotten older, so I prioritize his comfort by keeping my current home pet-guest-free. Fortunately, my flexible work-from-home schedule means I’m more than happy to come to your pets instead! When caring for pets in their own home, I follow their usual routines, boundaries, and any instructions around feeding, walks, medications, crating, and household rules to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I love keeping pets active and engaged through neighborhood walks, hikes, backyard play, or indoor enrichment. I’m a big believer that there’s no bad weather, just the wrong clothes for the weather, so I’m happy to get outside in all seasons! I’m attentive to leash safety, surroundings, other animals, and each pet’s comfort level, with experience caring for reactive dogs and seniors who may need extra space, a slower pace, or other accommodations. Above all, I want your pets to feel comfortable at home and you to feel confident they’re in good hands.

About: I have 5 years of pet care experience and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I love spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, keeping their space clean, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I’ll do my best to make sure they feel right at home. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I’ll treat your dog with the same love and care I would give my own! I love making sure animals feel safe loved and comfortable. I plan my schedule carefully to make sure I can give each pet the time and attention they deserve. I’m dependable, organized, and understand how important it is to keep pets on their usual routines while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions. I want every pet to feel comfortable and safe in their own environment while their owner is away. I give them plenty of attention, keep their spaces clean, and make sure they always have fresh water. I also believe communication is important, so I’m happy to send updates and pictures to keep owners informed. My goal is to make sure every pet feels loved and well cared for, just like I would care for my own dog.

About: I'm a dog owner of 5 years to a miniature schnauzer named Oscar, and he's my best friend! I have pet sat locally for 3 years, and have lots of experience walking/caring for dogs of all ages. I love all pets, and hope I am able to help out in whatever way you need! As an actor between jobs, I have lots of time between weekly auditions to pet sit. Auditions come at different times during each week, so my availability is flexible and varies week to week. With many years of pet sitting within clients homes, what makes me special is that I never leave your home once I'm with your furry friend(s), even if they do well alone for periods of time. I'm very happy to play, walk, and just hang out with your pet, whether it be for a quick check-in visit, or a multiple night stay!

About: I have decades of experience around cats and dogs - in the home and with extended family pets, and then started pet care for others as a teen. Through my teens and 20s I consistently dog sat, did scheduled walks out of others’ homes, or cat play/feed visits. I’ve loved each and every pet: from Great Dane siblings to cats that rule the house and play it cool. I grew up with cats and have long term cared for a Vizsla dog beloved to me, as my own. I have experience with animals that do not get along with other animals, or take a while to get used to humans (I’ve always had an affinity for these guys and allowed them the space and time to grow comfortable with me). I live in Portland, OR but am from the Hudson Valley and back in the area to be closer to my father who is on hospice with a terminal illness. I am reactivating my Rover profile because I am working from my laptop some hours a week here and there (I choose the hours) and spending some time with my father each week. All of my days are flexible and I’d be open to arrangements based on need. An animal to hang with and care for would be really lovely at this time. My days are all flexible. I make my own hours at work and am only working 8-16 hours a week due to being on intermittent FMLA. Several days a week I would be out of the house for portions during the day to spend time with my father in Fishkill, NY. Based on directive and to minimally disrupt their routines and comforts. I adapt easily and I find I have a good energy for animals to adapt to being around me—not forcing anything and just letting them lead the way in terms of their comfort level.

About: Hi everyone my name is Danielle. I have over 10 years experience in dog care. I am a teacher full time.I have experience with all aged dogs, from puppies who need training to seniors who are in need of specialized care and medications. I love animals! I grew up with all types of animals, but mostly dogs. I bring to RoverGo vast experience as a pet sitter. I’ve worked with nearly every breed of dog, from tiny 2-pound toy breeds to large 180-pound furry giants. I also work at an animal hospital so I’m very familiar with all the dogs’ different personalities and I’m also comfortable administering medication, should your pet need it. I have been walking and boarding pets for the last 5 years and I’m happy to provide references! I have plenty of time for your pup and you can be assured that we’ll get in plenty of walks every day My family and I love spending time outdoors and we love having our furry friends accompany us! Bring your high energy pups because we love taking long walks or your senior loungers who will have company most of the day! I am a full time teacher so your pup will only be left alone for a short amount of time during the school year! During the summer and school breaks I am home ! I am able to accommodate as many walks and feedings I live in a quiet complex with plenty of furry neighbors! We can take walks so we can socialize or go our own way if your pup isn’t too fond of others. I do whatever you do at home for your pup when it comes to bed time for example if they sleep in a crate, on their beds or free roam!

“Elena was an absolute godsend for our pets!!! She came over a few days before she housesit - and the dogs were nervous at first, but she sat on the floor with them and waited until they were comfortable - and basically, she's the dog whisperer. When she came for the housesit, the dogs recognized her and were excited to see her. She sent pictures and let us know how they were doing the perfect amount, and the pictures she sent were some of my favorites that I have of them now! I didn't worry at all while we were away, and that is 100% thanks to Elena. Her kindness, patience, and flexibility, among a million other amazing qualities, make Elena the only person I would ever want to housesit for us in the future!”

About: Hello, my name is Amanda and I am the loving mother to a bichon named Mollie. For the last seven years I have volunteered a lot of my time at local shelters in addition to helping walk dogs. I’m a very caring and compassionate person, and I help care for all dogs as if they are my own. Associates of mine have referred to me as trustful and reliable in helping care for their beloved members of their families. Through furthering education and professional experience, I’ve been able to fine tune what dogs need consistent with their breed(s). In addition, I am experienced in delivering dog first aid plus CPR. I provide my own transportation and my hours are flexible. I look forward to hearing from you.

“Dawn was the best! Got along great with our dog, sent lots of photos/videos/updates, and was super easy to coordinate and communicate with. Would highly recommend!”

“Tim is so great! Kind - big hearted - and took great care of our two Australian Shepherds while we were away. He sent pictures and updates and was so thoughtful.”

Nicole C.

“Our puppies absolutely loved staying with Madison. She did well with my needy french bulldog and crazy beagle puppy. Our puppy is not yet completely potty trained, but that didn't scare Madison away. She took them for lots of walks and messaged me daily with photos. We will be using her for sitting again very soon!”

Tiffany S.

“Gabbi was so very amazing! We were nervous to leave our dogs last minute but she was reassuring and also made them feel super comfortable. I could tell in the pictures she sent and when we got home that our dogs were very happy with her. Thank you Gabbi!”

Celeste C.

“Our little guy simply loves Tess, and she takes wonderful care of him. We are lucky to have her!”

About: If you have an athletic or active dog, we are the hosts for you!!! Trips to parks (on and off leash), running the trails, and swimming in a Lake will happen every day. If your dog is less active, we can bring our activity level to where your dog is most happy and comfortable. I have a very open schedule. Usually I go to the park go with my family who enjoy the day doing things outside the house. If you have a last minute appointment or you need anything on the same day I do take them I have a very open schedule one works in the morning and the other one works in the afternoon so your pet will never be alone. I had pets before they pass away. We used to love our pets so much. We took CPR classes and emergency classes for pets just in case.
