House Sitting in Dixon

“Responsive, professional, very accommodating, highly dedicated and most importantly very good with my dog. Even my cat likes her--which is unusual. Best sitter I've had bar none. A lot of the sitters on here just seem to sort of vegetate, but Shannon is very active with the pets and genuinely seems to have a genuine passion for the job. Highly recommend.”

About: I have taken care of friends dogs for several years now and have enjoyed it immensely! I've cared for 1-4 dogs at a time, and have had a great time with them. Right now, I've cared for mainly small to medium dogs, but I'm open to bigger dogs too. In addition to dogs, I have many years of experience with cats, fish, chickens, butterflies, and even turtles. I'm always open to variety and love caring for any animal! I am currently a student pilot with a good amount of flexibility in my schedule. I mainly fly in the mornings for a couple hours at a time. I also do babysitting and tutoring on the side but can also work around those. I can be available for overnight stays most nights and I can do a quick drop ins when needed! I am not currently working, mainly picking up smaller side jobs and studying away, so my schedule is very flexible! I do not offer boarding at my own house, but I am completely open to overnights at client's houses when needed. I have stayed at friends and families houses multiple times and my goal is always to leave making sure things look better than when I got there.

“Nora is an excellent pet sitter. She was patient and caring with my older dogs. She kept in touch and sent pictures and videos and I appreciated that. We will definitely use her again!”

About: Senior care experience! I've adopted multiple dogs at 10+ yrs old from the local pounds and made sure they had the best senior care experience possible. I currently have 2 dogs, both spayed and absolutely love other dogs. A Corgi (Ruby) who is 9 and a Maltipoo (Joplin) who will be 2 this year. The poo was adopted from a kill shelter in TX (and one before her from the same area as well). We've lost 4 dogs in 2 yrs due to old age, 3 within 6 months. Hard pill to swallow but I love them all and would LOVE to love yours too! I am a stay-at-home dog mom. I have all the time in the world to take care of your babies! Believe me when I say they will come home all tuckered out :) I have a fenced in back yard and 2 VERY friendly dogs to keep your pups very much entertained! In your home (if a dog sitter in home is required) you can expect all of their daily schedules to be fulfilled.

“Sonja was wonderful with karma! We are so glad that Rover has such capable people. She kept me posted on how things were going. I highly recommend her. If we have a need for a dog sitter again we certainly would use her. Thank you”

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 9. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to care for their pets while they were out of town. I have experience with different breeds, sizes, and personalities of dogs from gentle greyhounds to energetic border collies! I also have experience petsitting multiple dogs and cats at once. I am a teacher on summer break so I have lots of time and attention to devote to your animals! I am available at any time of the day. I have a fenced in backyard and currently no animals in my house. I live walking distance from a lot of great dog walking spots! I am also available to care for pets in their own home.

“Drew was absolutely amazing, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our three dogs while we were on vacation. From the moment we connected, he was professional, kind, and incredibly attentive. He made sure our dogs were taken out regularly, kept them on their routine, and truly treated them like his own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Drew stayed overnight each night, which meant the dogs were comfortable and our home was well cared for too. On top of that, he kept the house in excellent condition, honestly, we came back to everything just as we left it (if not better!). He was also very responsive and kept us updated with messages and photos, which we really appreciated while we were away. It’s clear Drew genuinely cares about animals and goes above and beyond for the families he works with. We’re so grateful for the care he provided and would absolutely trust him again in a heartbeat. If you’re looking for someone reliable, respectful, and truly great with pets, I highly recommend booking Drew, you won’t regret it!”

“Two very large dogs intent on destroying our home (or so it seemed) and somehow Amanda kept order. We received daily communication and pictures and she cleaned up their destruction. We returned to a surprisingly clean house. Definitely rebooking her.”

“Kay was awesome with our boys Alan and Jaxson! She sent pictures to us daily and gave updates on how they were doing. Dogs really liked her. She left the house as if we never left. Thank you so much. Most definitely will be using Kay for our future Rover inquiries.”

About: I've had animals my entire life - cats, dogs of all sizes, caged critters, etc. I've provided care for pets of family and friends both inside my home and theirs, and feel comfortable caring for animals with special needs. I am also a licensed cosmetologist and have been grooming my own double-coated dogs for over 10 years and am happy to help with grooming your babies! At this time I am unemployed and have a pretty open schedule to love on your babies! My pups prefer to have me home overnight but otherwise I'm very flexible. My yard is not fenced so potty time is leashed outside, however I do have a fenced patio and large finished basement where my two dogs love to play. I can crate if needed, my boys typically only crate when nobody will be home. Also, I do enjoy giving a good groom- bathing, brushing, ears, nails, and trimming.

“Isabelle and her boyfriend were great at taking care of Cooper. They were so sweet and made sure he had plenty of activities to wear him out. Would use them again!”

“Gabi did everything we asked her to do, and more! She did such an amazing job taking care of our dog. We knew we could trust her and relax on our trip and she did not disappoint. Would use her again in a heartbeat!”

About: I have taken care of my over 13 pets through the years, as an only child my cats and dogs have been very close to my heart and truly apart of my family. I hope to be able to meet not only your pets needs But yours as well! I have school and a part time job but I have flexible schedules with class not being long than 3 hours at a time and breaks in between. My work schedule is only in the afternoon to evening and is extremely flexible! I always make sure to ask questions to understand your pets needs and make sure I have plenty of time for them! I usually try to follow any instructions given and get in contact with any questions!

“HIRE CHRIS. I won the lottery with him. It was my first time using Rover. I have a special needs rabbit who needed a caretaker after a rabbit boarding service was no longer available. I messaged several sitters and Chris was the first to respond. He is responsive and communicative. What I absolutely love about Chris, among many things, is that he asks questions. Not in a "what do I do" kind of way. Rather, "how do I do this to make sure it's done correctly". My special needs rabbit is on a specialized diet. I left Chris with instructions, which he followed to a tee, but he also sent a photo of the food. (My rabbit is feed very soft, watered down pellets and Critical Care due to recent dental surgery). I'm happy that he did because my rabbit can't chew on pellets. He sent lots of photos of Moo, too. Chris was also flexible with the initial meet 'n' greet appointment and visiting my landlord's office to pick up my front door key (which has to be loaned out). One of the reasons I chose Chris was his close proximity to my apartment. I will 5000% hire Chris again for my rabbit sitting needs. He took great care of my very special needs rabbit and Moo liked him too! I recommend him for your pet sitting needs, including small mammals!”

About: I’ve been around many dogs since I was little. Even viscous ones. But no type of dog scares me. Having a cane corso for about 4-5 years got me to be aware of any type of pets. Being around cats dosent worry me. Just as long as I pay attention to signs on what to and not to do. I work full time with kids and I love pet sitting for one of my friends. But usually after work I love to be around lovely pets. I will walk your dog personally. To be honest, letting a dog out in a yard doesn’t seem like they have much freedom. Taking them on an adventure is the way to do it so they have options. Treat them the way you would want to be treated is my motto.

About: I have had multiple dogs ranging from black labs to Saint Bernards! I have done dog walking here and there for over ten years. I am also a mom to an almost two year old (human) and I am very responsible. I’m currently not working and I am a student. Due to scheduling with my child’s other parent I am available every other weekend and Tuesday-Wed. Besides time with my child’s and class, I am free to care for your pet! I am very responsible with animals and professional in other peoples homes. I have house sat, cared for pets, and babysat without any issues within the home. I am happy to provide a safe and fun environment for your pet in your home.

About: I'm a firm believer that life is better with dogs. However, I know how busy life can get, so I'm happy to help somebody keep the dog in their life happy. I work from home so I'm here all the time, so my schedule can be flexible during the day. My dogs are my babies and I will treat yours like they are, too. I work from home so I have a flexible schedule. I can come over in the morning for breakfast, in the middle of the day for walks, to at night for dinner. I would prefer to care for your dogs in your home. I have 3 of my own, so it would be a little chaotic if they were all here

About: Grew up with all kinds of animals. Tons of experience babysitting animals for family, friends, and neighbors. Open to care for any pet any size/age! I’m currently working part time over night so I’m usually always available and have always had a passion working with all types of animals any age/size! I provide a safe space for your pet in a pet free and smoke free home. With years of experience there hasn’t been an animal I couldn’t handle!

About: I have grown up taking care of dogs. I had a golden labradoodle growing up. I love all dogs and caring for them as well. I graduated last school year and have a lot of free time. I am able to work weekends and weekdays. Message me with any questions. I take the animals out as often as needed. I stay on the pets schedule. I have three little cats myself and stay on their schedule.

About: I have been around dog’s of all sorts for quite some time, i used to work at a dog grooming place as a bather so i would handle all types of different dogs! i have experience in puppy training, puppy care, senior care, walking and bathing if needed! I have a lot of free time right now, i would rather be spending my time taking care of furry friends then doing nothing! Your pet will get the most lovings with me :) I live on a farm, part of my yard is fenced in and some of it isn’t completely closed. it is a very big backyard tho plenty of room for your furry friend to run around on a longer leash!
