Stephanie recently provided house sitting services for my dogs, Luna and Finn, and did a great job. She was professional and showed a clear understanding of the basic needs of my pets. Throughout the weekend, she kept Luna and Finn on their regular feeding and walking schedules, which I appreciated. Communication was straightforward; she checked in periodically with updates, ensuring that everything was under control at home. It was reassuring to know that my dogs were in safe hands while I was away. In conclusion, Stephanie provided competent and reliable service, meeting my expectations for pet care and house sitting. I will definately consider booking her again through Rover for my future pet-sitting needs! 🐕🐕🏠💕

About: I have taken animal science classes for past 4 years and previously worked at doggy daycare and boarding facilities. I am also proficient on administering many specialized medications such as insulin and heart meds. I have been taking care of pets since I was 12 years old and have worked with all types of dogs from Chihuahua puppies to senior Great Danes. I am currently working part time, usually from home while going into the office a few days a week. I would be free to visit any pups all throughout the day on most weekdays, usually Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, as well as the weekend. I always ensure that whatever animal I am taking care of is comfortable and feels that they are in a safe environment as well as others around them. Being with people other than their parents can be a stressful situation for some pets and I work to make that encounter as stress free as possible.

We were very nervous as this was the first time we’d used Rover and left Ellie behind but Dale communicated every day sending us pictures and letting us know how things were going. She even cleaned up before she left so we’d come home to a nice, clean house.

Carrie took very good care of her while we were away for a week, even letting her sleep with her. We were very pleased with Carrie and would highly recommend her.

About: I have had dogs my whole life, all different breeds with all different needs. My current dog lives with seizures and continuously needs attention, meds, and different foods, so I understand that all dogs need special care, and lots of love! My schedule varies, but I am actively looking to make extra money over the summer, so I will do my best to make bookings work! If visiting your home to care for your pup, I can take them on a walk, play with them, feed them, clean up any accidents if necessary, or give them meds if needed! I want to care for them just the same as you would.

About: I’ve owned my own dog walking/sitting business. I have 4 years of experience training dogs, including my own. I’ve looked after many different breeds and ages of dogs from newborn puppies to senior pups. I love dogs and am willing to put in the utmost effort to make sure they are loved and properly taken care of. Currently, I am available at any time after 4pm and all day Thursdays and Fridays. I am new to the area and I’m hoping to create a schedule with new clients. I will get the animal settled making sure they have food and water. For exercise play with some toys or a walk/hike. And of course making sure they get all the pets and treats they need.

Isabelle has a great love for animals. At 8 years old she walked the neighbors dogs. She rode horses and cleaned the barn. She would ask the owner questions about their pet. So she could best meet the needs of the pet in her care. She cared for our rabbit , cats, fish and dog.
