Pet Sitting in DeWitt

“Giada was great with my cat, Apollo. She played with him and gave him social interaction while I was gone and also administered his medication. She was very easy to work with and a great sitter!”

“Lori did a wonderful job watching my pets! She does a great job following the directions I leave for her and she spends lots of quality time with them while I am away. She always gives prompt updates and sends plenty of photos!”

“Ashley was so amazing during my whole trip! She was super flexible and very detailed in her updates plus tons of photos. Definitely will be booking with her again next time I need to go on a trip 💖”

“Islay not only did a great job at taking care of Loghmeh, but she was very responsive to messages and very accommodating. Thanks so much Islay!”

“Braxton and Marvin were two very happy cats when we returned home from our trip. Z took such wonderful care of our fur babies and our home. We received pictures from Z every day after every drop-in, which helps me when I'm away from our boys. We will definitely rebook with Z in the future!”

“Megan is an amazing dog sitter! My anxious boy is pretty skiddish at first but he warmed up so quickly because she made him feel comfortable and safe. I would recommend Megan to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

“Needed a last minute drop-in and Kelsey came to the rescue! Just a quick visit but took my pup out for a potty break and got some fetch time in. ☺️”

“Ashley did a fantastic job taking care of our kitty. She sent several pictures each day that showed she made sure all of his needs were met, plus some! We would definitely recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a person that will genuinely care for their pet.”

“Julia took great care of our dog Vera. She was very conscientious and stopped by for a meet and greet. She was responsive to messages and very reliable. Thank you, Julia!”

About: I’m currently working from home so, I have a very spacious schedule that will allow me to be free for pet care. I have been taking care of animals for a long time.I have 8 years of pet sitting experiences, I love and enjoy the company of cute furry friends. I have experience with small to large breeds of dogs. I also have experience with cats, hamster, rats, bunnies, ferrets and fish. I accommodate any last minute requests or emergencies. I love going for walks with my dog Charlie (white dog on profile) so your pet will be in great hands. I'm so excited to host your furry friend! I’m currently working from home so have a pretty flexible schedule to make drop in/ walk request along with house sitting requests. I am pretty open to any last minute requests I care for your pets just like my own. So they will get all the snuggles and love. Along with some energy burning time outside.

“Chris is truly THE dog whisperer. Every dog loves him. Every dog listens to him. Every dog is just drawn to him. He treats every dog as they were his own. He is extremely patient and caring. Wouldn’t trust anyone else with my dogs!”

“Danielle is incredibly reliable, patient, and attentive, which makes them perfect for dog walking/sitting. I’ve seen firsthand how dogs respond to their calm, friendly energy—and how much they genuinely enjoy their time together. If you're looking for someone who will not only walk your dog but also truly care for them, I can’t recommend Danielle enough. Your dog will be in great hands!”

“Kiersten has watched my dogs multiple times and puts a substantial amount of care and attention to every aspect of their care. She loves all sorts of animals and is very passionate about what she does. I never have any worries when my dogs are with her as I know they’re in good hands”

“Julie is the sweetest and takes such good care of Louis. She watched him over Christmas and even made an unplanned stop on Christmas Day! So thoughtful.”

“Tesa has watched my senior cat multiple times this year. She’s been fantastic with my shy, anxious kitty and even has been able to give her meds (which is no small task!!) We absolutely love Tesa!”

“Kali is an animal lover. She is very responsible and caring. She takes care of your animals as though they were her own. She takes care of all of your pets needs while you are away, so you have nothing to worry about.”

“Kristi is an amazing person and a trustworthy sitter. She loves animals and loves caring for them like they are her own. Highly recommend to anyone.”

“Megan was great! She was timely, detailed, and went above and beyond for our dog. Would definitely recommend and will be using her again for our pet sitting needs!”

About: Welcome! We're David and Lisa, experienced and passionate dog lovers returning to Rover after taking some time away. While our own beloved Rottweiler, Roxie (who many past guests adored!), sadly passed in early 2024, our love for caring for dogs remains stronger than ever. We're excited to open our home again! Years of Proven, Loving Care: As you can see from our past reviews, we have years of experience providing exceptional care for dogs of various breeds through Rover. Our goal is simple: to treat your furry family member like one of our own in a safe, comfortable, and fun environment. What Sets Us Apart: + A True Home Away From Home: Dogs have free range of our house (except the kitchen!) and quickly become part of the family. We believe in spoiling our guests with attention, playtime, walks, and plenty of cuddles. As past clients have noted, dogs often feel so comfortable they settle right in, eat well, and sometimes don't want to leave! + Constant Communication & Peace of Mind: We know how important it is to feel connected while you're away. We're committed to sending frequent photo and text updates (often daily!) so you can see your pup having a great time and relax knowing they're in good hands. Clients consistently praise our communication. + Experienced & Attentive: We are always home, providing consistent supervision and companionship. We're adept at understanding dog dynamics (like ensuring playtime is balanced with rest) and paying close attention to each dog's needs and personality. Our past dog, Roxie, was wonderful at socializing with visiting dogs of different ages and energy levels. + Handling Special Needs: We have proven experience with: - Senior Dogs: Providing gentle care and attention for older guests. - Medication Administration: Confidently administering oral medications as needed. - Anxiety: Successfully caring for dogs with separation anxiety, creating a low-stress environment they thrive in (we've even had anxious dogs get excited pulling up to our house!). + Flexibility & Reliability: We understand life happens! We strive to be flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and have accommodated short-notice requests when possible. We've even gone the extra mile, like ensuring a guest ate when their food was forgotten or coordinating a vet visit for a minor concern (with owner permission, of course!). Requirements: To ensure a clean, comfortable, and stress-free environment for everyone, we require all visiting dogs to be reliably house-trained. We are not set up to accommodate dogs needing ongoing potty training. We genuinely love dogs and cherish the opportunity to care for yours. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet & greet! Pet care fits seamlessly into our daily lives because Lisa is home all day! This is a huge advantage for our furry guests, as it means they receive consistent companionship, supervision, and attention throughout their entire stay. They are rarely, if ever, left alone. Our daily routine revolves around the needs of the dogs we're caring for. This includes regular walks, dedicated indoor/outdoor playtime (weather permitting!), feeding according to your schedule, administering medication if required, and plenty of time for cuddles and relaxation. Because Lisa is home, we offer great flexibility, easily accommodating specific routines and needs. As past clients like Cassidy H. (whose dog Stella stayed with us multiple times) have noted, our being "home all day" is incredibly helpful and ensures dogs feel comfortable and secure, often settling in quickly and eating well, just like they would at home. Essentially, when your dog is with us, their care is our main focus for the day. We provide care exclusively within our own home, creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where your dog is treated like part of our family. To ensure maximum safety, comfort, and personalized attention, we only care for one guest dog (or dogs from the same family) at a time. The biggest factor contributing to safety and trust is that Lisa is home all day, providing constant companionship and vigilant supervision. Dogs are rarely, if ever, left alone. Our home is their home – dogs have free range to relax and play (with the kitchen being the only off-limits area). We also have a securely fenced backyard for safe outdoor exercise and potty breaks. Regarding the pool in our yard: for safety reasons, as it does not have steps suitable for dogs, visiting dogs are not permitted in the pool. Any time a dog is in the backyard while the pool is open, they are under direct and constant supervision. We maintain a routine that includes regular walks, playtime, and quiet time, always attuned to each dog's individual energy levels and needs. Safety is paramount; we're experienced in managing dog behavior (drawing on years of experience, including with our own late Roxie) and ensuring a calm atmosphere. Trust is built through consistent communication – as many of our past reviews highlight, we send frequent photo and text updates so you feel connected and reassured. We meticulously follow all feeding instructions and are experienced in administering oral medications (like we did for Jayne B.'s Cisco). We've cared for dogs with separation anxiety (like Christy R.'s Atlas, who grew to love coming here!) and seniors needing gentle care. We pride ourselves on being attentive, even coordinating a vet visit for a guest dog when needed (with owner permission, like for Tanja H.'s dog). Our requirement that all dogs be reliably house-trained also helps maintain a clean and comfortable environment. Your dog's well-being and happiness are our top priorities throughout their stay.

“Kenzi R is absolutely amazing with our four legged family members! She is very responsible and caring. Tucker is so excited when he sees her! She has a genuine love for animals of all sorts!”
