House Sitting Bumble Bee

About: I’ve taken care of pets of all shapes and sizes: fish, chickens, goats, horses, and of course cats and dogs! I started working with dogs and training them when I was 7 years old in county 4-H, and then when I was in high school I assisted with puppies for Guide Dogs for the Blind, where I helped raisers socialize young puppies from 10 weeks to 18 months before they went back for further training. I’ve helped family and friends raise puppies they can live with and love, and my own dogs have been the best part of my life. I’m a current graduate student at Embry-Riddle, and I’m reliable, safe, and experienced in animal care. I’d love to work with you and your fuzzy family members! I work early shifts, so I’m available most of the afternoon and Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. I love taking walks in the early morning, before it gets too hot and the sidewalk is still nice and comfortable. My favorite thing is letting the dog set the pace, and sniff to their heart’s content. I can visit most homes in Prescott and Prescott Valley during the workday if needed, and have flexibility for other events or longer trips if needed. I make sure to keep as close to the expected routine as possible whenever I pet sit. Everyone likes to know when they have to get up in the morning or when breakfast is coming, and your pets are no different. I’m comfortable working with dogs of varying personalities, and can understand when they might be more open to play or socialization, versus when they just need some calm and relaxation.

“Wow!! Jennifer is the best house/dog sitter I have ever used. She messaged us with pics and videos of Molly (our dog) once or twice every day and let us know how she was doing. I could see that she paid a lot of attention to Molly. Molly is a little older and recently had a seizure so she takes a couple medications twice a day, which was no issue for Jennifer. When we got home, Molly seemed very relaxed like she had a great week. The house was immaculate, and the sheets she used were washed and waiting for us in the dryer even though we didn't expect that. I'm really impressed and I'm not easily impressed. Thank you Jennifer and Molly thanks you too!!!!”

“Zoie was absolutely amazing with our dogs and cats. She stepped in last minute and was incredibly flexible when our plans unexpectedly changed and we got stuck needing an extra night. Knowing our pets were in such great hands made a stressful situation so much easier. She was communicative, reliable, and clearly cared for our animals like they were her own. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and felt completely at ease the entire time we were away. We’re so grateful for her kindness, flexibility, and help on such short notice. Highly recommend Zoie to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable to watch their pets!”

“First time I've used a pet sitter so was a little nervous at first. Zack was great at communicating and sending pics. 'Kids' were perfectly happy when I got home and house was immaculate. Thank you Zack for peace of mind when I travel from now on!”

“We couldn't have been happier having Malina as a pet sitter for Josie. It was our very first experience doing all of this with her. Malina stayed overnight and was very conscientious about keeping things in order. She came over before the stay to get acquainted with us and Josie and discuss schedules and routines, so Josie was familiar with her when she came over. She works remotely and was here the entire time. It sounded like they had a wonderful time together and Malina was very communicative with us, sending pictures and texts. She had wonderful comments about Josie. Josie loved her and so do we! Wouldn't hesitate to have her sit for us again.”

“Gail stayed with our 2 poodles while we were away. She kept us well informed of their daily activities. I couldn’t be more pleased with how she made us feel at ease as our sitter.”

“Scott was an incredible dog sitter! We have two dogs — one elderly and one very high energy — plus a cat, and he handled all of them so well. He sent lots of great photos and updates throughout our trip, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we got home, the house looked fantastic, and it was clear our pets had been very well cared for. Beyond that, Scott is just a genuinely great person. We were so happy with him and will definitely use him again!”

“Top notch Dog Sitter!! I highly recommend Ashleigh!!! I have so many good things to say about her service. She went above and beyond. Ashleigh was so attentive to my dog. She was challenged with a senior dog with high separation anxiety. I asked if she’d stay home with my dog more than be away. She spent long days and evenings with my girl just like I asked. She put the dog food, meds and treats in refridge after she noticed a line of ants on my counters. Ashleigh was so kind to voluntarily wash the bedsheets and put new ones on for me. That saved a lot of time for me after a long flight I can’t keep up with all the extras she did for me and my dog. Oh and she’s so fun to talk to as well. I was so pleased she was at a mature age rather than too young to know how to run a household. I feel my dog was in safe hands with Ashleigh and I’m already hiring her for 3 weeks from now for more overnights! She’s trustworthy, reliable and responds timely. Plus she just moved to Prescott, still unpacking and accepted my request on a last minute request. Thank you, Ashleigh for a job well done! Jingles thanks you! We have more trips where we will definitely hire Ashleigh. I just hope she isn’t booked”

“Kami is the pet sitter that we've been looking for since we've had dogs in our family. Freyja and Raven "took to her" immediately. Two German Shepherd Dogs, each weighing well over 100 lbs., were "easy" for Kami. She played fetch with them, took them for regular exploration walks around our property, made sure that they were well fed and watered... But most importantly, Kami treated them like family. She also looked after our home and plants that needed attention while we were away. I'd like to keep her as "our own secret" so that she does not become too busy! When we go away for day trips or over-night adventures, we will look for Kami again here on Rover.”

“Anna took outstanding care of our three kitties while we were on vacation and our home was perfect upon our return. She sent frequent updates with pictures of our fur babies playing and being their goofy selves. The communication was excellent which allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our time away. Highly recommend her friendly, professional service.”

“Sierra did a great job with our picky elderly pets. Will definitely use her again!”

“Angelina did an incredible job with our pets and home. Gave us multiple updates while we.were gone and went above and beyond in everything she did. We will 100% use her again and again”

“Gary and April were excellent in every way. coming over to meet Phineas prior to staying over for two nights. 10 stars! Showing up on time always with a smile on their face! 10 stars and finally the piece of mind that I didn’t have to worry about my baby while I was away for two nights. 10 stars!! Thank you Gary and April!”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up with dogs and currently have four of my own, so caring for pets is something that comes naturally to me. Through the years, I’ve gained experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes and personalities, and I’ve also helped care for dogs belonging to friends, family and others when they’ve needed a reliable sitter. I currently work a low-stress, remote job on weekdays, so I can be attentive to your pets for most of the day, whether it be taking them outside, playing with them, taking them on walks or whatever they need. When caring for pets, I make it a priority to keep them feel safe and comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, whether it be feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications and any special care requirements. I understand that every dog is different, so I take the time to learn their personality and preferences to help them feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away.

“Left our cats to Shelley for a week and they love her! Shelley took good care of them and regularly gave us updates on how they were doing. She communicated inadvance if there were schedule adjustments. She was there with the cats the whole time which gave us peace of mind while we were away. I recommend her service. We will sure to be return customers.”

“Lauren took great care of our dog and home while we were out of town. She is very responsible and clearly loves dogs! She will be our first call when we are in need of someone to housesit again.”

About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals since I was 10! I worked with dogs in a facility for daycare and boarding and I enjoyed that. From loving the pets to feeding them giving medication and baths and a bunch of love! I’ve worked with pets my whole life. I have 3 dogs of my own so they are my priority! I have open availability and I’m free for whenever I’m needed! I have a fenced yard. 2 pups of my own that are very friendly and love meeting new friends. I have trails next to where I live that I take my pups to so they can explore. I will accommodate to anything to make sure your baby is all good and that you feel reassured about the safety of your pet!

“Jessica was beyond accommodating on last minute requests. We needed the biggest favor of all, watching our fur baby who needs medical attention and we needed assistance getting him to our wedding. She made all of it happen with ease and we could never thank her enough for helping our fur baby be part of our most special day!! Captain loved her and she was SO good with him. They were both immediately comfortable with eachother and as an over protective dog mama who doesn’t allow many around her boy, this meant the world to me.”

“Tamarine gets an A+ for her care of my prized rescue dog and going over and beyond the call of duty in her house sitting. I am happy that Tamerine was available for this firs time experience and will definitely reach out to her moving forward. Thank you Tamarine!”

“Caitlin was amazing! We don't have kids and very protective of our furbaby. Caitlin treated Bella like she was her own pup. She did all the basics, followed our instructions, but so much more. Loved all updates and pics she sent. Bella was definitely spoiled. Caitlin also took great care of our home. We will definitely be booking her again.”
