“Rachel is fantastic! She is loving to our elderly dog Zoey. She puts us at ease while we are gone by taking many pictures at each visit and giving detailed descriptions of her visits.”
“Suzanne was amazing with my two boxers Brutus and Sadie. Sent lots of pics to us and updated us every day while away on our cruise. They loved her and she brought them toys. Will definitely use her again.”
“Renee looked after our cat while we were away on a one week vacation. I cannot begin to explain how wonderful it is to be able to enjoy a vacation without having to worry about our kitty being cared for. We 100% know that we can completely depend on Renee and are so thankful to have found her!”
“Bobbie was amazing and accommodating with me and my dog Mabel. She was super friendly, calm, and knowledgeable about dogs and specifically pit bulls. I got lots of updates and she was very transparent on what my dog was doing in her care. Definitely will be using Bobbie again!”
“Vivien was awesome. I have 3 dogs. One of them is older with anxiety, a puppy and a 3 yr old. All 3 of my dogs loved her. Vivien administered medication to my senior dog. She cleaned up after the puppy and made sure my 3 yr old got plenty of attention. My dogs aren't used to being left alone. But, Vivien took care of everything. I was able to relax while I was on vacation. I would definitely request her service again. Vivien was perfect.”
“This is the second time Evie has watched Meatball and we would definitely book again. He seemed to still trust her after the two years between bookings and was happy and cozy when I got home. Thanks Evie!”
About: I've been taking care of pets, plants and homes for the last ten years. I believe in having a pet owner coming back to their pet/home in better shape than they left them. I've encountered many different personalities of pets over the years and understand each has different needs and desires. I ensure that the pet is comfortable with the environment and myself by building a relationship of trust. I'm a high school technology teacher enjoying summer break. I've decided to join Rover so I can still work during my down time this summer. I have cared for animals short & long term and have many necessary items like leashes, bowls, foods, bags and more. I have air conditioning for the hot days of summer. Walking your dog helps me live a healthy lifestyle that I enjoy.
“Faith did an excellent job during our week-long vacation. She was timely and professional in her communication with us and was willing to follow complex instructions to care for our animals. We were able to enjoy vacation so much more knowing that she was carefully checking on our pets. I would definitely recommend her as a pet sitter!”
About: I've taken care of dogs for over 4 decades. I've helped with puppy litters. Older dogs require more finesse. I treat any dog like they are mine. I work the school system so until May I'm available after 4pm. I work another job 2 days a week and Saturday so my availability is open. I will be the only one in your home. I follow any rules set by owner because their animal needs to feel comfortable with who is taking care of them. They aren't going outside unless I know the leash is attached or the gates are closed and locked
About: I have owned animals my whole life, both cats and dogs. I have owned/ co-owned big dogs, medium dogs, small dogs, older dogs, energetic dogs, lazy dogs, snuggly dogs, etc. I have also owned big and small cats, lazy cats, somewhat mean cats, snuggly cats, energetic cats, etc. I have dog walking experience, bathing experience, and dietary restriction experience. I recently moved out of a house with a roommate where we co-owned a Rhodesian ridgeback and black mouth curr mix named Kamila, and I am no longer a co-owner, and I miss being with her so much. I am not in a situation to own a pet right now so pet sitting is the perfect job! I currently work part time around 30 hours each week! I have Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays off work so I can do drop ins or walks on those days but the other days I work 11am - 7pm! It all depends on how the owner wants me to care for their animal. I work for the owners! I have never had a fenced in yard so I always would take a dog outside on a leash to go to the bathroom, and I have had experience with both dogs that have a feeding schedule and free eating dogs. I love going on walks if the dog is capable, and I also love playing inside whether it is a dog or a cat. I know brain enrichment is super important for animals so making sure they get some of that as well and not just physical exercise is something I pay attention to.
About: I have always owned a pet. I also worked as a zookeeper for 7 years before becoming a stay-at-home mom. I can care for any animal and can even provide basic training. I will also come work on your farm. I love physical work and am working towards having my own homestead. I am also comfortable administering medications. I can come out almost any day of the week to walk, spend time, do animal chores, or whatever else is needed for your pet or farm. I will likely have my son who I stay home with unless this is an issue with your pet or your personal preference. Due to having children I will not be able to stay the night but can come several times a day and in the evenings. I will come to your home to care for your pets. I will follow all written instructions. I prefer to come and do a meet and greet to become familiar with your pet and the routine you have established. I will always check first to see if I can bring my son as I am a stay-at-home mom and only don't have him two days a week. I will always be attentive with him and the animals as I do understand how to identify behavior. I spent 17 years in the zoo field both as a volunteer and as a keeper.
