House Sitting Boone

“I rarely leave my pets with non-family members, and it was such a relief finding Devin and Kelsey to stay with them for an extended stay. They were more than willing to come over for multiple drop-in visits prior to my trip to spend time with me personally, learn the pets’ routines, and let my dog and cat get to know and enjoy them. They’re kind, responsible people with a definite way with animals and commitment to their care. We communicated daily and the pictures of obviously happy pets were very much appreciated. I fully anticipate having them back for future visits! Thanks so much you two!!”

“Ashlee did a wonderful job housesitting for our 3 dogs! She was considerate of their routine and respectful of our home. She sent regular updates with pictures or videos and communicated her arrival and departure. All in all a wonderful experience working with her!”

About: For several years, I’ve cared for friends dog while they are away and needing someone to provide care, either extended in home stays or just popping in. I had a dog when I was growing up, and I loved being able to take her on walks and little adventures, now I just have cats. I enjoy walking dogs and taking them to the park for some enrichment and exercise! Providing some time during the day to keep your pet company is something I love to do. As a pet owner, when I'm away for longer than normal, it always makes me feel better knowing my pets have someone to check in on them, so I love to do that for others when I can! I currently have a very flexible schedule, so I am available for daytime care during the work day, as well as last minute care needs! I am happy to take dogs on walks, or to the dog park, and provide engaging play and attention. For cats, I'm happy to follow their cues, hanging out nearby, providing opportunities to play, and come get some affection if they want. I pay close attention to animals and their needs, responding quickly to any cues they are giving me about what they may want or need. If a dog seems stressed, we will head back home and get back to a comfortable space. With cats, I always let them set the pace and get comfortable.

“Cecilia was awesome. She stayed at our house for a week with our dogs! It really gave me comfort being able to let them stay in their home. She played with them and took them for walks every day. I’m sure they are missing her. Lol! She sent pics and messages daily so I would know they were doing great! Thanks so munch!”

“Hailey was outstanding! She took care of our large group of dogs for a weekend. We appreciated the picture updates and knew they were in good hands while she was there.”

About: I've taken care of family and friends pets for almost 10 years now, and have always been a reliable and trustworthy sitter. I've been around animals I'm currently unemployed so I am have very flexible hours. I can provide quick and simple care, like taking the dog for a walk, or provide comfort and entertainment for multiple hours or days. I enjoy going for walks, but I also dont mind snuggling up on the couch and having a lazy day. I currently have a year old Australian cattle dog mix, so im used to high energy dogs that need lots of attention, play, and stimulation. I'll care for your pet like their my own. To ensure your pet is comfortable, im more than willing to do an initial meet and greet to get to know your fluffy friend! I love to follow a schedule and make sure needs are met for my pets. I also enjoy keeping a clean and safe environment, so I always make sure to clean up as I go along with activities. If your dog needs to go out for a walk, I'll ensure im using the correct equipment (leash or harness) and taking a route they are familiar with. I enjoy being outside, so if you have a backyard for your pet I'd be more than happy to chill out there as well! Safety is very important, so I'll always make sure to keep doors shut and locked, and I'd never invite someone over without permission.

About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have owned a dog since I was 7. Over the years, I’ve also helped local families care for their dogs while they were traveling, and during college I had the opportunity to help a breeder care for puppies as well as their adult dogs. These experiences gave me the opportunity to work with dogs of different ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I also have hands-on experience working in a veterinary clinic, and I’m currently a second-year veterinary student. Between my personal experience with pets and my veterinary training, I’m comfortable providing attentive, responsible care and following individual instructions for each pet. I’m currently in veterinary school, so my schedule is busiest during the weekdays, but I have more flexibility on weekends for house sitting and longer stays. I’m also available for drop-in visits and walks during the week when my class schedule allows. I’m very intentional about keeping my Rover calendar updated so families know when I’m available. I enjoy spending my free time outside, walking, and being around animals, so pet care fits naturally into my routine! I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and as close to their normal routine as possible while their owner is away. I’m happy to follow specific instructions for feeding, walks, medications, potty breaks, and anything else your pet needs. My experience working in a veterinary clinic has also taught me to pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy, and overall well-being. When caring for pets in their home, I’m respectful of their space and their family’s home and make sure everything is secure before I leave.

“Tiffany did a great job taking care of our pets and small hobby farm. She communicated regularly before, during, and after our trip. Tiffany was also flexible when unexpected things came up. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Jamie was very responsible and attentive while providing in-home care for my dog. She took Hazel on walks, played with her, and calmed her down. I won’t hesitate to hire her again!”

Jen M.

About: I have nine years of pet care experience. I raised and showed Rex rabbits for 4 years. Personally I have trained and care for my own dogs. After High School I work in an Animal Hospital. My duties there included receiving the animals for appointments, prepping and assisting in surgeries, keeping accurate records, cleaning and sanitation of the facilities. I am available to care for pets full time as I am looking to make a career out of caring for pets as I pursue a position as a Veterinary Assistant or Technician. I would be able to care for the animals in their own homes keeping them safe in the comfort of their own space and environment.
