House Sitting College Heights

About: I've loved caring for pets my entire life! My mother was a vet tech who taught me everything I needed to know about caring for animals. I have two senior dachshunds adopted from rescues and have rehabilitated them to be sweet socialized canine citizens. I love dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes. I work a hybrid office job which gives me some flexibility for assisting with your pets! I can walk or visit with your pets in the evenings on weekdays, or anytime on weekends. Your pet will receive care according to their unique needs while I'm visiting with them. Play, feeding, affection, or exercise defined by what you would want to be doing for them yourself.

“I had Carolina do some dog sitting in my home while I was out of town and I could not be happier. She took great care of my senior dog, Joey. He had plenty of exercise and walks, was well loved, she kept him great company and treated him like he was her own. Joey has some medical issues and requires medications throughout the day and she was very diligent about following his schedule. She gave constant updates, pictures and videos, which was much appreciated. Carolina was extremely respectful of my home, and pretty sure my place looked better than when I left. The next time I need someone to look after my old guy, I hope Carolina is available, I highly recommend her.”

“Another fabulous week of Blythe watching our pups! We were nervous to leave our puppy, but Blythe was amazing with her. So happy to have someone we trust in our home when we can’t be there!”

“Brianna was a very attentive dog sitter to our high energy pup! She was also very good about letting us know when Sloane acted up so that we could help her handle the situation! Such a great house guest! She even stripped the bed!”

About: As a kid, I was a go-to dog sitter for several neighborhood dogs while their owners were out of town. I have experience walking, feeding, and letting dogs out when they need. Most importantly, I’m best at giving dogs love, attention and pets! I am a band teacher, so my schedule varies depending on the time of the year. I also have a 35 minute commute to and from work, which affects the hours that can make in-home visits. I return to school on August 25th. My work hours during the school year are 7:30-4:00pm, plus the commute both ways. During the school year, I am only available for overnight stays on the weekends from Friday-Sunday. This might vary depending on different breaks during the school year. I am a warm, patient, and caring person. Whether your pet eagerly greets me when I arrive, or if they need more time to warm up to me, I will be flexible to your pet’s needs.

“Marilia communicated often sending updates and pictures, and was very open to our instructions and the pets’ daily routines. We felt good that Marilia would care for them well while we were able to focus on our flight process without having to worry if the pets were eating and going potty when they needed to. Thank you so much for looking after them!”

“Andrianne was wonderful! She was communicative throughout her time with Tex. Pictures often! She Not only took good care of our precious dog, but Our Home as well! I would highly recommend Adrianne for your pet sitting needs! We will definitely be using her again! Words I would use to describe her: kind, trustworthy,friendly!”

About: As a dog lover my whole life, I wasn't able to get one of my own until a year and a half ago. Having our golden retriever Tommy has completely changed my life for the better! I absolutely love dogs of all kinds and enjoy being outdoors and playing with them. I work full time remotely, so I am extremely available and flexible to your schedule. I can accommodate any needs and have experience with both puppies and senior dogs, and everywhere in between. Tommy has been professionally trained and gets along great with other dogs. We are able to keep dogs in our apartment if needed, and have lots of parks and sidewalks near by for exercise. I currently work from home full time, so I am very flexible for your pets needs. I currently keep our golden retriever active (as he very much needs it!) and would love to add another dog to the bunch if needed. I live in an apartment but have lots of access to local parks and walking trails. I am available for drop-in visits and walks as well.

“As always, Keisha did a wonderful job taking care of my little fur babies! She made sure my walk-crazy dog had many miles under his belt, snuggled my velcro cat, and sent many photos along the way! Not to mention, she did the dishes and made sure my home was clean :) will absolutely book again!”

Kate C.

“Kelsey was great with our 2 year old, high energy Samoyed while we went on a two day bike trip! She proactively asked to do a home visit first, which we were grateful for and it helped relieve some stress for us before our trip. It was clear Kelsey read all the info we prepared to help her have a fun stay in our home, and she sent lots of photos and updates. We were fully able to enjoy our time away as a result. She had great judgement about walking our double coated dog in the heat and rain. Our home was as clean as we left it upon our return. We’ll definitely book with Kelsey again!”

About: I love animals and have always had them. My friends reach out to me for pet sitting because they know I will take the best care of their fur babies! I have a teacup Yorkie and a cat so if you have a friendly pet, they are welcome to stay by me, but I am also retired so can stay by you if that's more convenient. I am very flexible! I am retired so have all day & evening to spend with your fur babies. I love to walk so would be sure to take your fur babies outside for fresh air any time of the year. I live in a safe area and have beautiful paths for dog walking any time of day. If your pet likes car rides, I love the beach & the water so could have lots of fun taking them wherever they like to go!

“Excellent communication from the start. Came for a greet and meet and easy to be with and obvious knew dogs well. Ended up a friend of mine knows Alissa so a double excellent reference. She communicated with me constantly throughout the stay. My dog is a senior and she did well with him and when I returned he kept roaming into where she was staying in my place. Would have back again as she is available.”

About: I've had dogs in my life for forever, puppy to senior. Patience is required. I have lots of patience. I have loved my dogs, trained my dogs, and nursed them back to health when sick/injured. I am semi-retired and willing to hang out with your pet at my home or yours. I occasionally run errands but am not away for long periods of time. At my home, there is a large fenced yard for running/playing, and a safe space indoor crate, for napping. Also, cushioned mats for lying upon. I ask questions, and I listen. I make certain the routine of the pet is not disrupted.

About: No kids or pets of my own and a big Jeep means my outdoorsy lifestyle is open and flexible for your fur babies. I'm experienced with dogs from all walks of life, from your social butterflies to your shy guys, your runners fetchers swimmers and wrestlers, you name it, I'm down for it. I have calm and confident experience with reactive dogs and big breeds especially. I'm a part time barista, working mostly evenings, so morning and mid-day walks work best for me. I am available for night walks after work as well, if that works for your schedule. Weekend boarding is best with advance notice, as I occasionally pick up Friday and Saturday shifts at the coffee shop. I live on the second floor with access to a fenced in backyard. Hardwood floors in home. No kids or other pets of my own. I do have houseplants if your dog is sensitive to soils, fungus, or has a history of plant eating. Crating is an option I'm comfortable with if that's what helps your furry friend feel safe, though my ideal set up is to share my whole space and enriching lifestyle with your pup, or to visit them in their home where they're already comfortable. I'm mobile with the Jeep as well, so we don't have to stick to my neighborhood if your dog is reactive and needs some extra space.

“Maya was AWESOME! We needed a last minute Rover to stay at our house and watch our 2 pups for a night and she was such a good fit for the job. Super communicative & sweet — we always received the cutest pupdates. Our dogs were 100% in great hands & we’ll definitely be booking with Maya in the future! 😊”

“Patricia was wonderful! This was our first time using Rover, and it could not have been a better experience. Patricia went above and beyond, sending regular updates on our pups, the bird and the house! And when we returned, she had even washed the linens! Highly recommend Patricia!”

Brenda S.

“Emma was so sweet with my little senior dog! My dog has various quirks and some chronic health and anxiety isssue and Emma was very accomadating with it all! She was also a great communicator and would check in and ask questions to clarify if she needed anything. I would definetely recommend her to anyonne and would trust her again with my furbabies <3 Thanks so much Emma!”

About: As a little kid, I grew up with a dog and then got two dogs of my own as an adult. I raised all my dogs from puppies all the way through to end of life. I have dog sat for family and friends as well so I have experience with many breeds and conditions of care. I am currently available most weekends for whatever your fur babies need and I have some flexibility with my schedule during the week so I may be able to help out! I have a large (unfenced) yard for dogs to play in. I have a crate if needed. I have a walking path nearby to take long walks.

“Berenice was absolutely fantastic. She watched our 2 year old dog and young puppy in a pinch over a weekend and we came home to happy, healthy pups. The house was clean and exactly as we left it. This was our first time using Rover and she helped me feel comfortable and informed. She was prompt and great at communicating. She sent updates and pictures. Highly recommend Berenice. Very trustworthy with our dogs and our home.”

Claire L.

“This was my first time using Rover and leaving my fur babies with someone besides family , so naturally I was very nervous. She was very reassuring and made me feel comfortable. Stephanie did a great job. She was great with giving updates and taking care of my two fur babies overnight.”
