House Sitting in Big Rock

“We loved meeting Anja and Josh, they are a great pair and so clearly were our brand of dog people. Our dogs could not have agreed more. We have two enthusiastically loving and excitable dogs, that range in weight from 55 to 75lbs... Anja and Josh took them in patient stride and loved on them immediately. We came home to a clean house, perfectly kept, and two happy and NOT frantic dogs. It was clear they had been so well loved and cared for that they were totally chill. We've literally already booked them for another weekend. Thank you both!”

“My Bella loved Ann the moment they met. Ann was responsible, respectful , kind and calm. I will definitely trust and ask Ann to watch my fur baby again when we go away! She was on time and sent me photos and updates. Thank you so much !!”

“Super happy with the help from Nicholas. He was communicative throughout our trip, and kept our pet well loved. House was kept clean as well. Recommend 10/10.”

“Bennett was great with Winston. During our meet and greet, Winston could not get enough of him! When we got home, the house was clean and tidy, and Winston was way more well adjusted than when we would board him. Loved getting updates as well! Will definitely be using Bennett in the future!”

“Morgan was great at communicating and sending photos on how her stay was going with our dog, Boston. We were able to relax knowing Boston was in great hands while we were hours away.”

Hannah G.

“I was very happy with Claire while she stayed at my home & watched my senior dog. She sent pics and texts and asked all the right questions so that she could provide the best care possible. Thank you Claire!”

“Sophia did a PHENOMENAL job!! I had a dog sitter cancel on me before a business trip with a 2 hour notice. Sophia last second came in and saved the day ! My pets absolutely loved her and she gave them great attention and care! I will 100% be booking her services again !”

Jack C.

“Grace was terrific! I needed someone at my home while I was away to keep up my two cat’s routine and allow them to use their patio while I was away. She took great care of them and my protective cat had someone to watch over. She also took great care of my home. I will definitely book with her in the future if I can get myself to be away from my fur babies again.”

Denise W.

“Meg took great care of our fur baby, Sparky, for a week. Meg was quick to respond, laid back, caring, and easy to work with. I'm sure Sparky would love for her to dog sit again in the future!”

Jessica K.

“I booked Megan for a second time. This time was for a long weekend trip and she was again amazing with my pup. Stuck to his walk and food schedule. Included photos of my pup while I was away. Communication was strong and I didn’t have to worry about anything while on vacation. 100% recommend!”

About: Hi there, my name is Sami! I've lived with dogs my whole life, big and small - some of which include a Golden Retriever, a Yorkie, and a Maltese. My sister occasionally comes over with her Goldendoodle, and I love spending time with my aunt's Bernese Mountain Dogs when I can visit them. I plan to adopt my own dog later in the future, and perhaps enroll them as a therapy dog to bring comfort to others. I've watched both my sister's and parents' dogs while they are away for the day, and I have some experience in caring for them when they were puppies. I used to walk my parents' dogs in the past, as well. I enjoy interacting with dogs as a whole, and I put their safety and comfort first. I'm an introvert who lives a quiet lifestyle, but I also love to have fun, so if your furry friend needs someone to hang out with while you're away, I'll be there for them! NOTE: Though I adore cats, I am unfortunately allergic and therefore cannot interact with them directly if you have any in your home. I can still feed or play with them via a cat teaser or laser pointer, but I cannot pet them or pick them up. :( At this time, I am working another part-time job as a behavior technician Monday through Friday, with the time usually being from 4:30 to 7:00pm. Occasionally, however, I am asked to come in at either 9:00am or 10:00am until about 12:00pm or 1:00pm. On Saturdays and Sundays, I am available during afternoons and evenings, though prior arrangements in advance can be made for a morning walk or visit! I will update my schedule as soon as anything changes. If you have any questions regarding my schedule for a particular day or week, please don’t hesitate to message me! IMPORTANT: As per Rover’s Terms of Service, please note that I cannot share private contact details or accept methods of payment outside of Rover. This is for the safety and security of all parties involved. When out on a walk, I will make sure your friend is kept safe and away from hazards or things they may be uncomfortable with. When dropping in for a visit, I will make sure their needs are met and everything is secured for their safety. They would never be left unsupervised, and they'll get lots of love and playtime! I will gladly send photos and text updates upon request. Please do let me know your communication frequency preferences, so I don't accidentally disturb you with messages!

“This is the second time we have used Nicole. She is so good with our fur-babies. I use to be so scared to leave them but Nicole has made this process so easy for me now. She is GREAT at handling my Staffie, who is a handful = ) so many needs... She gives medicine, special meals, anything that is a concern, she does. She is so kind, soft spoken and goes over and above what is needed. Our animals are loved on, taken care of, and there is not anything we have to worry about. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter, walker, etc.”

“Ace house sat for me for 4 days and was absolutely wonderful with my two pups! they kept me updated on their visit schedule, was responsive and easy to communicate with, sent plenty of pictures and updates, and definitely made me feel comfortable leaving my pups and house in their care while i was away! i will definitely be booking with Ace again soon! 😊”

“Blake took good care of our pup and our house. We’d welcome him back anytime and recommend him to anyone who needs a pet sitter.”

David B.

“Sierra is very sweet and caring! She did a meet and greet before house sitting for us, which we appreciated! The pups warmed up quickly. We have two very energetic doodle puppies, but she did great with them! It was so nice to have our fur babies in good hands while we were away. Thanks a ton! We will definitely be using Sierra more often. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been a dog walker and started a neighborhood business at the age of 10 and I have worked in animal animal hospital for 3 years and an animal shelter as well as a doggie day care :) I have my own family dog that I take care of and I have the availability to be available whenever. I also like to make sure I am scheduling everything that I need to do prior. While caring for my dog at home, I make sure to know when he needs to go to the bathroom. I make sure he’s fed. If I am in someone else’s home I make sure I allow the pets to feel safe and reward good behavior. I make sure he gets his medicine and we play, sleep, and cuddle.

“Hannah looked after my 2 Jack Russell‘s. She was super responsive, great with follow up, remembered all the details and clearly made my two pups happy. I highly recommend her, I will be booking her again.”

“Holly cared for our 10 month old bernedoodle and two cats. She did a wonderful job and we had complete peace of mind the entire time we were out of town! She went above and beyond to ensure everyone was well taken care of. We returned home after being away for 5 days and everything was in perfect condition. She was good at communicating with us and asking questions, which helped with our peace of mind. We could tell she genuinely cared about our pets and ensuring they were comfortable in our absence. We’d no doubt look to Holly to care for our pets the next time we need!”

“Attentive, responsive, super kind to our pup and critters 🥰 left the house clean 🤩”

I currently do not have pets of my own right now but would love to spoil your pet with love and cuddles. I live in a forest type home with a very large front and backyard for your pups to run around.
