Cat Sitting in Dover

About: Hello! My name is Griffin and I'm 20 years old. I have owned dogs my entire life and I have two living with me along side a cat! I currently work at The Family Fido just outside of Stewartville. During my time there, I have worked with many different breeds and sizes of dogs while supervising group play! Not all of the dogs that stay with us are dog friendly so I have worked with solo dogs too! The Family Fido is a boarding/daycare/rescue facility so as part of my job I take care of feeding and medications. Since I started, we have had 5 litters of puppies that I have helped to raise before they have been adopted out to families. I have learned a lot of training skills and I will be attending dog conferences in the future to build my experience even more! Working at a boarding and rescue facility I work with dogs daily and for hours at a time. I own two dogs as well that I work with around the house daily! I am able to do walks, feeding, bathing, nail trims, play, and continue any training that your dog may currently be working on! I am also open to working with anxious or less confident dogs as well as handling more than one dog at a time!

“Hound was awesome! Very attentive and communicative. He spent lots of time playing with the boys and made sure to keep me updated with photos from each visit.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Lindsey! This was the first time we've left our baby in the car of someone other that my parents, but Lindsey made us feel very comfortable. Merlin clearly had a great time in the photos and videos she sent us. Very reliable and timely, we can't recommend Lindsey enough!”

“Callie did a great job with our girls! On time as scheduled and very patient and let the girls slowly warm up to her. She was so detailed in her note and sent us lots of great photos! Will definitely be using her again!!!”

“Brittany was great! My cat was well cared for, and had a blast during play time!! She was also super flexible when we needed an extra day of drop in visits! 10/10!”

About: My husband and I have had dogs all of our lives! We recently lost our 140 lb. Bouvier des Flandres (Oscar) and our kids are missing having a pet! We are currently pet-less, non-smoking, clean home, looking to love a dog for the weekend or during the summer when we are off. We have a huge yard (2 acres) and can keep your pet on a leash or nearby while we play outside! We love walks and snuggles! We prefer non-shedding breeds. No aggressive dogs. We are currently working/at school - so weekends are it. Once school is out (June-August) we have all summer to watch your pup! We are also an active family, so if you need your dog walked, we can do it! We will keep a close eye on your pup. Our kids are super gentle and are the sweetest kids. Your dog will be our priority if they are here! We want you and your pet to feel at home. We have been dog lovers all of our lives and we used Rover with our last dog and know you want a trusting home - we get it! We don't currently have any other animals and will only take 1 dog at a time (unless from the same family).

“Very easy to communicate with and took great care of my dogs!!”

About: We (Sean and myself) welcome both dogs and cats! Many years of experience between the two of us. Love taking care of pets and just want them to have a safe and loving environment. We have two kids who are 8 and 4 and they love all animals. I work full time as a nurse but all shifts are at home. I am off on the weekends. My significant other, Sean, stays at home as well and we care for the animals together. I am there to walk and play with them. Feed and water them when they need it. Can take for frequent potty breaks. Also just want them to have fun!

“Katya is kind and very friendly! She checked in on my cat over the holidays and even gave her a medication she needed due to a last minute emergency. I’d hire her again.”

About: I’ve had dogs all my life. I’ve always wanted to go to school to become a Vet and I now work at a doggy day care. I have such a big heart for dogs. I’d really love to be a friend to your animals :) I’m currently working at an assisted living facility so my hours vary. I have a lot of free time though in between my shifts, and would love to help you out I do not have a fenced in yard yet, although there is a great dog park within walking distance of my home! I love nice walks with dogs as it is very peaceful to me.

About: Hello! I have had dogs around me all my life. I’m currently a dog parent to two Chihuahua mix dogs, Bennie and Jet. Both are rescued and very sweet. I have assisted in training hunting dogs for my family and friends. I don’t have any professional experience, but I love dogs and I’m very good at making dogs feel safe and loved. I live in Rochester, MN and work a job that is Monday-Friday 8am-5pm in the office. If you have any questions or concerns please let me know. I would love to get to know you and your four legged family members!!! I typically work 9am-5pm at the office 3-4 days a week. In the mornings, I take my pups out to go potty and then they tend to come in and go back to bed. When I can I like to come home over my lunch to take them out and play a bit. In the evenings, we play outside if it’s nice and inside if not. My pups are free feeders so they eat when they are hungry and I just fill the bowl back up, this is typically 1/2-1 cup per day for my two chihuahuas. I’ve followed more routine feeding with my dogs in the past but this works best for mine now. My pups will cuddle on the couch with me until bedtime then they sleep in bed with me. I have a fenced in yard with trees for the pups to play in. Good side-walked neighborhood for walks. My house has stairs but I use baby gates for when senior or special needs pets visit. Lots of dog beds and blankets, all the blankets in my house belong to the pups lol.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs & cats for 14 years and have done Rover for over two years with many repeat clients. I had to make a new account. Family members have relied on me to watch over their fur babies, take them on walks and give oral medication. I have had my own dog & cat. I’ve have experience with puppies, senior dogs, kittens & senior cats. I’m currently working full time on weekdays but weekends are open for me. I can do overnight on weekends and drop ins and walks. I always make sure we set up and introduction with your dog and/or cat so they can get comfortable with me. We never leave the house without a leash!! Your dog will always be leashes when going outside. I won’t let your dogs interact with other dogs (due to chance of injury to your fur baby) if you do want me to have your dogs interact with other dogs let me know and I can do that.

“Britny really helped us out on short notice and did drop-in visits with our pups. She was responsible and had good communication. We'd definitely use her again. Thanks so much Britny”

About: I have always had a passion and love for animals ever since I was little. I have experience caring for many different animals such as dogs, cats, rabbits, chinchillas, hamsters, gerbils, rats, ferrets, birds, lizards, frogs, and fish. I used to volunteer at an animal shelter and even ran a summer camp there about animal health and safety for children. I have experience in administering medications and topical treatments in different animals. I also have experience in dogs with anxiety. Leaving your pet in someone's care can be nerve racking, but I understand that your pet is family. I have a 15 Ib Havapoo male (neutered) dog that will keep your furry friend company. I work throughout the week but I am home all day Saturday and Sunday to watch your furry friends. I am also available weekday mornings until around noon so I can make accomodations if needed. I have a large fenced in yard for your dog to run around in. Please be aware that the fence is 2.6 ft tall (about waist height). The height isn't a problem for smaller dogs. My dog is allowed on the furniture and sleeps in my bed with me at night.

“Gabrielle was the greatest to watch our dog. She was so patient with getting to know our dog and take care of her. She sent pictures every visit she had and our dog looked like she was having a great time! We would gladly have Gabrielle watch our dog again!”

About: I have 5+ years of professional experience walking and caring for pets at a veterinary clinic and 12+ years of experience walking and caring for my dog, Chico. Medications are no problem! My dog is diabetic, so I know how to administer insulin shots if needed. I work full time during the day, but I am available most evenings and weekends if you need me to walk or care for your pet. I walk, feed, medicate, and play with your pets to ensure your furry loved ones remain happy and comfortable in their homes while you are away.

“Sheena was wonderful! Great communication skills, wonderful sitter who kept meticulous details of her visits with my cat, Dot. Definitely recommend Sheena to watch your four legged friends! :)”

About: I grew up around dogs, 5 German shepherds I learned to care for and love while my Mother was away. German shepherds need a lot of care and attention as they are power breeds. It gave me the education to be able to handle any situation. I currently have 2 dogs, that are well behaved and know so many tricks! I dont have kids but I treat them like my own! I beleive routine is most important in taking care of a dog. If you stick to a healthy one your dogs will be happy and satisfied:):)
