About: I’d love to watch your dog, make them feel at home and you feel relieved knowing they are enjoying themselves. I work in sales and have the luxury of working from home which allows me to give your pup a ton of attention while you’re gone. I grew up housesitting/dog sitting with my mom and have worked with all sorts of dogs. Your pet will love spending time with me as I enjoy walks and lounging with them inside. I own a 2yr old yorkie who enjoys playing with other small dogs so your dog will come home tired. Your dog is welcome in our home and will be treated as my own! If you’re interested in a friendly and responsible sitter taking care of your dog while you’re gone then reach out to me to see my availability! I work full time from home and so I am available to give your dog all the attention they deserve! I work around their schedule on how many walks or potty breaks they need depending on their routine. Your pets will be treated as my own! I allow my small dog to sleep on my bed and your dog is welcome but if your prefer they stay in a crate that is no problem!

About: I’ve taken care of many different animals since I was about 5 years old. I’ve cared for birds, a squirrel, raccoons, and many dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I’ve trained puppies and taken care of dogs in wheelchairs and diapers. I currently have an open schedule as I just graduated college with my Bachelors degree. I would be available all days of the week to take care of your pups and cats. I treat my animals as part of my family, they are spoiled and very happy. I will gladly treat your animals as part of my family too, as well as follow any instructions you give for how you train them and keep them on your schedule.

About: I have two dogs of my own back home, Bonnie and Clyde, that I am absolutely obsessed with! Being away for school makes me miss them so much. I love every dog like it’s my own and give them all the care and attention I can! Both my roommates have dogs so I have experience and the responsibility to take care of pets that aren’t technically mine. I love helping people and being someone they can rely on when they are in need! I have house/dog sat for multiple people and have always had success. I work in the athletic department for WSU which gives me very good time management skills and discipline when it comes to jobs or tasks that need to be completed.

Thankful for my wonderful Rover dog sitter Delores. My outside dog, a 54 lb. cattle herder, was visited and fed 2x per day while I was on holiday vacation. She met Luke and myself on the initial pre-check interview before I went on vacation. I appreciated getting pics and feedback on him while I was away. Thanks!!

About: Hi there, I have always had an animal growing up and therefore have always loved caring for them! Ever since I was little I have said I get along with animals more than I do humans! I would love to help assist in caring for your fur baby while you’re away. I also want to mention that I have a fur baby of my own named Teddy Winston. He is currently a 2 year old Labradoodle who loves to play outside, go for boat rides, and go for car rides! I am a full time SAHM! My life is very busy between being a new mom and taking care of my family. Please reach out and I will talk with you regarding my schedule. I am very protective of my dog Teddy and always want the best for him. He is apart of the family and will always be treated as such. He gets high quality food, regular vet visits, and lots of attention. I promise to treat your pet just like my own and he/she will be in the best of hands with me. My goal is to bond with your animal and vice versa.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have years of hands on experience caring for both dogs and cats through pet sitting, nannying, and caring for my own pets. From daily walks and playtime to handling the less glamorous parts of pet care, I’m comfortable with just about all the random pet stuff that comes with keeping animals happy and healthy. I also have experience administering oral medications and following specific care routines for pets with different needs and personalities. I currently have three cats, Callie, Goose, and Simon, who absolutely run my house and my heart. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust. My goal is always to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and as stress free as possible while you’re away. My schedule is very flexible, I am a nanny and my schedule mainly has me working during the weekend and after school hours. I’ve been pet sitting for years, so I’m used to working around different routines and making sure pets get plenty of attention and care. I treat every pet like my own and always want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I utilize pet sitters myself occasionally, so I know how important trust, communication, and updates are when someone is caring for your pets. I have experience following care routines, cleaning up messes, and handling all the random day to day pet care that comes with animals.

TLDR: Giselle is amazing with both immediately friendly dogs and reactive dogs who need longer to warm up. Giselle was amazing with both of our girls! We have a labradoodle who is a true velcro dog and a terrier mix who is not a fan of strangers. We went through rover because we wanted our dogs to start getting used to new people. I was extremely nervous about leaving our terrier mix with someone new. She's not a biter but she does bark and charge at strangers who go near her. We scheduled a meet and greet a few days early with Giselle and she stayed until the terrier settled. During the actual drop ins, at first the terrier did not want to go to Giselle at all but Giselle was patient and sat with her to show her she was safe. By the second or third drop in, the terrier was not just okay with Giselle but genuinely excited to see her! We were so relieved that our dogs were comfortable while we were away.

About: I have owned animals and been responsible for them since I was seven years old. I have owned dogs, cats, and rabbits! I have experience with reptiles, as well as pets with medical needs, specifically diabetes where I have had to administer insulin. I will take care of your pet the way you ask! This includes walks, play time, belly scratches, and cleaning litter boxes. I’m an aesthetician so I work Tuesday through Saturday but I work per appointment only and I’m willing to work with you and your schedule to block out time to take care of your pets needs based on my schedule and theirs! Knowing in advance when I will pet sit for you will make this a lot easier than it sounds. I will treat your pets like they are my own, and also do my best to maintain their normal schedules. I will maintain your home while you’re away and respect your space!
