House Sitting in Brooklyn

“Back to back stays and we couldn't be happier. Our dog was not on her best behavior for this one, but Shelly rolled with it and really saved the day. We are so fortunate to have found you on Rover. Thank you Shelly!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs my entire life. I’ve always had animals in my household. Neighbors, family, and friends have always trusted me to watch their furry friends while they were away. I work part time at a school from august to may. I have plenty of time every day at home to watch and play with your animals. I have a large fenced in yard for my dogs at home. I live with parents so my dogs have multiple people to let them out and play when needed. In clients homes I let them out often and I am able to walk them and play with them frequently.

“Stacey was amazing and went above and beyond for me and my pets. She mentioned she has 3 large dogs and her experience really showed. At one point I ran out of dog food and she offered to go pick some up. She also watched over my guinea pig and took great care of him, since she has rabbits of her own. I will definitely be booking her again and again!”

“Kevin was wonderful! We received multiple updates throughout our trip and fun pictures of a happy pup. Echo got to go on walks, play in his back yard and snuggle. Additionally, our house was spotless when we returned. We were thrilled to return to both a well-kept doggo and home!”

“Christina was fantastic! She took excellent care of our pets while we were away. We have two big dogs and three cats, and they all settled in with her super quickly and were very comfortable! She sent plenty of pictures and updates and also took great care of our home. We definitely would have Christina pet sit again in the future!”

About: I’ve had over 10 years of experience caring for dogs from growing up around them and helping care for family pets. My experience includes feeding, walking, playtime, bathing, giving lots of attention, and making sure dogs feel comfortable and safe. I also studied with the goal of becoming a veterinarian, which helped me learn more about animal behavior and proper care. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of different sizes and personalities. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I have a dog of my own and have grown up around animals. I’m already used to responsibilities like feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for every day. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so pet care feels like a rewarding part of my routine rather than just a task. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they’re in my home or a client’s home. I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and any special instructions from the owner. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, patience, and supervision so they feel relaxed while their owner is away. I keep the environment clean, calm, and pet friendly at all times.

“Maya did a great job watching our pup Nefi while we were out of town.”

About: Have been around dogs my entire life. I have siblings with multiple dogs and whenever they are out of town I am always the one they have watch them. Currently just graduated and I don’t start my job until June. I’m free all times of the day and any day of the week works. Spend time with them and make sure they’re are staying out of trouble. Treat every animal the right way when taking care of them at all times.

About: I am pawsitively the best. I have been around pets and taking care of pets my whole life my family adores pets, so we’ve always had them. I used to be the neighborhood sitter for children and pets, growing up during my teenage years and in my college years. In my opinion, nothings more wonderful than caring for our furry friends and making sure they are happy and comfortable and have the best life they can have. I am also skilled at working with elderly pets and giving medication’s including insulin shots and I’ve had to administer an IV regularly on one of my cats in the past who had diabetes and her pancreas was going out, with that said, I am very comfortable administering any medication’s that your pet may need. I am an entrepreneur, and I’m currently working on putting together my business adventures. Sometimes I Uber and DoorDash or Instacart, which creates an open schedule. I can work around my pet care schedule with my current obligations. When I care for pets in my home, I am able to take them to the pet park that is provided by my apartment complex. There’s also a lot of wonderful places nearby to go on walks. If I am taking care of a cat, I would play with the cat and keep him/her very comfortable. If I am taking care of a cat or dog in your home and you have a fenced in backyard, I will make sure your pet has time to run around and play and I will play as well with you furry friend or take your dog for a walk around the neighborhood.

About: **I have 4 years experience fostering and training reactive, aggressive, and fearful dogs. I’ve seen many transform into well-adjusted companions under my care** I have years of experience caring for and tending to older dogs and cats with various health issues like hip dysplasia and incontinence, in addition to puppy and kitten care, too. I am patient and kind even with the highest maintenance puppies. I fostered neglected/previously abused dogs with Carolina Adopt-A-Bulls rescue for over 4 years. I am very experienced with mitigating leash reactivity and caring for heartworm-positive pets throughout their treatment, and I look out for dangerous situations before they happen. I am well versed in canine first aid and wound care. I am also a foster volunteer through the Bloomington Animal Shelter. I do not currently have a foster dog. I am attentive, caring, experienced, and kind. I can’t wait to meet your pets. I am a doctoral student, so I have some flexibility in my schedule. I’m booked up until 6pm on Wednesdays, but have more flexibility the rest of the week. I can take your pup for walks around the neighborhood, campus, or the many parks Bloomington has to offer. I have a comfy dog bed for canine visitors to lounge in while I’m studying.

About: I've taken care of pets all of my life. From puppies all the way up to seniors. I love them all. They all need someone to care for them and feel the extra love especially when their normal family is away. I'm currently flexible and can fit pet care into my daily routine. Occasionally, I will pick up an additional job. But that shouldn't interrupt with taking care of what I love to do and that is to take care of fur babies. I would rather take care of your pets in their environment due to the fact that they are most comfortable there. I also have two fur babies of my own. But I feel as if fur babies are normally happy in their own surroundings.

“We have 2 dogs. 6 month old puppy and 4 year old. Susan helped train them. She walked them and had them outside playing every day. They were treated like royalty! She’s wonderful to communicate with. You can tell she is very experienced with dogs. We felt like we won the lottery.”

About: Pets have always been center stage in my life. Currently I share my home with three cats and a granddog who likes to visit and go for walks with me. My love and appreciation for animals has sparked my desire to be a pet sitter. I began my pet sitting journey by caring for pets belonging to friends, neighbors, and family. I gained experience providing for pets needing oral medication, accommodating frightened and lonely animals, and behaving in a manner which gained the trust of my new furry friends. I am a retired teacher and have a flexible schedule. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening schedules. I am also available for overnight stays for both pet and house sitting. I am able to meet all expectations while caring for your pet at home. I have a large country property to provide stimulating outdoor time for overnight furry guests. I will take all precautions needed to provide a safe and comfortable environment for your furry companions,

About: I did an internship at medical mutts where I trained service dogs and helped take care of them. I’ve watched friends dogs. I train dogs too! I’m not really doing anything, so I’m available pretty much whenever, I am totally flexible. I can do long term or short term schedules. I want your dog to be safe! I’m unfortunately not able to do boarding at my house, but I can take your dog out to see my little brothers or my grandma because she loves dogs, I can take your dog to the park and I can even train your dog!

About: I have 10 years experience caring for Dogs & Cats. I have had animals around me my whole life & I love caring for & working with them. I have trained puppies & supported older senior animals on their way out. My favorite activity is taking them on adventures outside, dependent on the animals temperament/style, some love dog parks, playing fetch, going for drives, hikes, and others just like a simple calm stroll. I also have experience watching & caring for more exotic pets such as reptiles, amphibians, snakes, and farm animals. Throughout my life I've had a few pets a Bearded Dragon, Ball Python, Cat, Dog, a horse, Chickens, and my siblings had pets as well that I helped care for. Whatever mini family member (or maybe not so mini) it is that you're looking to get care for I'm excited to meet them! At the moment I'm currently staying at home & doing this full time. When they're here all my attention will be available for your loved one. I have a small fenced in backyard that they're free to adventure in, though most their exercise will come from walks/the park as it's not that big. There are no children in the home.
