Pet Sitting in Calamus

“Shannon was awesome! She communicated extremely well and made sure she knew exactly what our dog needed. She sent pictures and updates every visit. She went above & beyond by walking him & picking up his poo in the yard. Will absolutely hire again.”

About: I had farm pets growing up, even raised show rabbits for 4H in high school. Have 2 cats that I adore and one little beagle/basset who’s energy could use another dog I normally work full-time Monday through Thursday, so Friday Saturday and Sunday are my preferred days to watch them and I can do it all day those days I have two cats and one dog that have full reign of my house and have had other dogs over without any issues or problems.

About: Hi! My name is Amanda. I have worked in doggie daycare, worked as a bather and in the sales department! At work I got to experience different breeds, temperaments and personalities! My favorite part of my job is building strong relationships with the owners and their dogs! I also have experience dropping in homes while their owners are at work, school or out of town. When I do drop ins I have taken them on walks, picked up after them and fed them. I absolutely love working with all animals! I am known to have great communication skills, I am compassionate , and I am responsible. I pride myself in those traits and look forward to building a relationship with you and your family member! I do have a full time job working with adults with intellectual disabilities. Mon-Fri I do work from 730am-4pm. I am still available during the weekends and can also do house sitting during the days that I work! I will follow their daily routine and make them as comfortable as possible while you are away. While walking them I will keep distance from other animals to ensure their safety. I will also follow all dietary needs and feeding schedules.

“Nora is great! I always know my Finley will get such good attention. He loves belly rubs and treats of carrots and she always makes sure he gets these! i want to wish her a very Merry Christmas.”

About: For years my daughter and I volunteered at a no-kill shelter fostering and adopting out dogs and cats. This gave me experience with several breeds. I work Tuesday through Friday from 8-5. My office is very close to the house and I am able to come home everyday for lunch. I have lots of time to spoil your pets! I live in a condo with a very large yard. Your pets will have the run of the house. I have one cat that rules the roost!

About: Hi! My name is Jess and I’m new to Rover, but not new to caring for pets! I haven’t had a time where I haven’t had dogs in the home. As a child I helped my best friend’s mom at her grooming shop! As an adult I have an American Bully who is a rescue from a local humane society. Many friend’s have used me to watch, walk, and take care of their pets ranging from dogs and cats. I’ve given diabetic shots to one of the pets I’ve taken care of as well! I’m also a mom to three children as well, and they have my heart just as FUR babies do! I’m currently a college student at Saint Ambrose University! I am majoring in Spanish Education. I start classes again January 22nd! I am very flexible outside of my class time and free to help with your four-legged friends. Monday’s availability is possible message me for details! I live in an apartment right now but I rescued an American Bully (3 1/2 yr) female from a local humane society. Her name is Xuna (zu-na) and she is my heart! She is working on dog reactivity, so I wouldn’t be able to bring your fur baby to my place, but can always travel to yours!

“Thank you! We can always count on you! We appreciate all you do for us and our furbabies!”

About: I’ve taking care of dogs most of my life , My children have been begging for a pet and I think this is the best way to cure their puppy fever 🥰 I’m currently working part time remotely and have an open schedule. Available Monday-Saturday willing to discuss any extended stays. Open availability open discussion for summer season I don’t believe in crating dogs so I’m 100% okay with your fur baby blending with our family , I also offer walks which will be great exercise for us both

About: Walking, bathing, playing, feeding, and caring/hanging out with dogs has been a constant part of my life for as long as I can remember. I was raised with 3 dogs(2 of which were puppies) and have assisted family, friends, and neighbors in these tasks for at least 7 years. I am currently in school which occupies my mornings(I do have breaks between classes) but am available most afternoons. My evenings and weekends are also available. I think it is very important to be aware of all the surroundings to make sure the environment is safe for the pet and to take proper steps like double-checking gates/doors.

“Sierra did a great job dealing with my antisocial Sunny. She's a one person cat. When I got back she was mad at me but well fed and healthy. I appreciate the way Sierra followed my instructions.”
