House Sitting El Lago

“David took great care of my kitty and house. I would recommend him to anyone needing pet services.”

About: I've cared for animals my entire life and currently have two cats, a snake, and a frog of my own. Beyond caring for my own pets, I have extensive experience caring for dogs of various sizes, ages, and temperaments. My experience includes overnight pet sitting, long walks, administering medications, and caring for pets with special medical needs. I've provided care for dogs with diabetes and seizure disorders, including administering medication and remaining calm and attentive during medical episodes. I'm comfortable cleaning up accidents, following detailed care instructions, and monitoring pets closely for changes in behavior or health. I've cared for dogs in a variety of environments, including homes, parks, public spaces, boats, and around other people and animals. Whether your pet is energetic and adventurous or prefers a quiet routine at home, I strive to provide safe, reliable, and loving care that keeps them comfortable and happy while you're away. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities so they receive the same level of attention and care they're used to at home. I work from home and have the flexibility to set my own schedule, which allows me to provide attentive and reliable care throughout the day. Because I am not tied to a traditional office schedule, I can accommodate potty breaks, walks, feeding schedules, medication administration, and plenty of companionship. My flexible work routine makes it easy for me to adapt to your pet's specific needs, whether that means extra exercise, midday check-ins, maintaining a consistent routine, or simply providing company for pets who don't enjoy being alone. I understand that pets thrive on consistency and attention, and I make it a priority to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. Whether your pet is energetic and active or prefers a quieter day at home, I have the flexibility and availability to provide the level of care and attention they deserve. As a Director of Operations, organization, communication, and reliability are a major part of my professional life, and I bring those same qualities to pet care. I provide care exclusively in my clients' homes, where pets can remain in the environment they know and are most comfortable in. I believe maintaining a pet's normal routine is one of the best ways to reduce stress and help them feel secure while their owners are away. Before each booking, I take the time to learn your pet's schedule, habits, preferences, and any special instructions. Whether that includes walks, feeding schedules, medication, playtime, crate routines, sleeping arrangements, or simply relaxing on the couch, I strive to keep their routine as consistent as possible. Safety is always my top priority. I carefully follow all owner instructions, ensure pets are securely contained when needed, monitor their behavior and well-being, and communicate promptly if any concerns arise. I understand that trusting someone with both your pet and your home is a big decision, and I treat both with the same level of respect, responsibility, and care that I would expect for my own. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you're away—and for you to have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands.

“Sarah did a wonderful job taking care of our 12-year-old dog. She actually house that for us and we could tell our dog was very happy and comfortable when we got home. She was very clean and tidy around our house, sent us updates with pictures every day and replied to any text that we had very timely. We appreciated her, taking care of our fur baby and our home. We will definitely book her again! Highly recommend her.”

“Eva was really great with my sweet piranha. she id a little reactive and nervous with new people, but she immediately took to Eva. We had some communication issues in the beginning, but after some chatting, we were able to resolve everything and she was even able to extend her time with piranha at the end of the booking when my flight was canceled so her flexibility is unmatched. I will 100% book with her again!”

About: Hi! I’m Ayva, your pet’s future best friend! I’m a lover of all animals with years of experience caring for furry friends. I currently care for my own German Shepherd who has unique dietary requirements. This has taught me the importance of paying attention to feeding instructions, medication, exercise, and recognizing if something is not right. I am comfortable following detailed care instructions, maintaining routines, cleaning up after pets, and providing plenty of updates and photos so you have better peace of mind. I’m patient, dependable, and detail-oriented. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing with toys, or simply relaxing and cuddling, I’m more than pleased to match their energy and keep them as comfortable as possible while you are away. I understand how worrying it can be to leave your pet behind in the hands of someone else. My goals are to minimize your worry and stress by providing exceptional care and in-detail updates, and to provide your pet with a comfortable, safe environment while you are away. I’m currently employed part time, though I am more than willing to work around my schedule to fit your pet’s needs and timeline. My schedule tends to be flexible, especially on weekends. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible to help them feel comfortable and safe. I carefully follow all feeding, walking, medication (if needed), and other care instructions, and I will make sure your home is left just as I found it. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I’ll ensure gates, doors, and leashes are secure before going outside, monitor your pet for any changes in their behavior or health, and provide plenty of exercise, attention, and affection based on their needs. I will also send you regular photo and video updates so you can be as stress-free as possible while you are away.

About: I’ve have 10 years experience with dogs all sizes and temperaments so if you have just the loving dog who loves everyone or may be a little scared or shy with strangers I am your guy! I am currently working part time, so most days I’ll be available all day. Late nights or early morning and everything in between I will be there. I try my best to make the dog at home as much as possible. Stick with the same morning routine, feeding, walks! Same throughout the day as well!

About: I've had pets my entire life. I take care of large and small dogs and a cat here and there for friends, neighbors and referrals for 2 weeks or less, but I can do longer. Most of my care is due the pet owner going on a vacation. It got started bc I do house sitting and some of them had dogs. That is when I learned that I like dogs more than people most of the time and I mean that in a nice way. I flush every toilet at least every other day and run every sink at least long enough to refresh the p traps. Toilets get flushed, plants watered, I can mow the lawn too. I've handled emergencies before when it was 20 degrees and can shut off water gas power. When you come back to your house it'll be in perfect condition. I may charge more than others but I do a lot more and you can have a lot more trust in me. I'm not new to this. I'm just new to Rover. I take care of my own dogs AKC Doberman Pincher and our loved ditch rescue, got cats, a Rhode Island Red hen and a unclipped Conjure parakeet too. If you need the extras while your gone, let's figure this out bc I do real house sitting and I love pets! I am retired from the Security and Safety industries. I have been doing this for friends untill I started getting referrals, but I still have a lot of time left over so I spend it with my big dogs. I love taking care of animals bc they are so appreciative and love back unconditionally. I have selected a relatively small circumference of serviceable homes, so this means you're probably living pretty close to me. I can visit your home 2, 3 or even four times a day. If you really need me to spend the night I can do it. I update my calendar daily and look forward to taking care of my friends and neighbors pets every single day. I like to take care of the pets at your house. I just don't think my big dogs want to share their home. And I think most animals probably would have less stress being at a familiar place, after all there's no place like home. But I can take them for walks if you need me to. I will feed them exactly as you require and if you run out of food I can back you up. Since I am literally safety certified as a technician and a supervisor, I can ensure you that your pet will not be put in harm's way. As a former licensed security operator owner, I have decades of proven honor and dedication to my customers and their homes and belongings. But most importantly I dig dogs and cats so put that first. I honestly would rather meet or talk on the phone first before you pay for anything please. Details matter.

About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was a teenager. From 20 year old chihuahuas, nursing day old kittens, and 80lb king German shepherds.. I’ve volunteered at a few animal shelters. Taking care of animals is a passion of mine. My work schedule is 7-4, Monday- Friday and have evenings and weekends free. Over the weekends I am available all day and evening. For week days I can visit your furry baby any time after 4! I have a big fenced in yard and have two loving and playful dogs that enjoy making friends. I have 2 cats that are incredibly friendly but also leave my dogs alone. I have crates available and my neighborhood has sidewalks that are perfect for dog walking.

“Alyssa was wonderful with our two pups and they are not the easiest to care for. She sent pictures and sent us updates on how Bella and Louie were doing. Administered meds and kept with their schedule. We will definitely ask Alyssa to watch our dogs again.”

“Madeline took great care of my 2 babies! She sent us pictures a few times a day (which I absolutely loved). This was my first time leaving my dogs at home with a sitter while on vacation so I was worried how they would act. She gave me the reassurance and comfort that my babies were in good hands! Madeline gave the dogs all of the love and attention so they wouldn't miss us. Thanks again! Looking forward to our next trip ?”

Allyson G.

“I highly recommend Chi as a pet sitter. I love how ChI pays attention to detail. She made sure that she knew my little guy: from his treats and his routine down to his favorite toys. It was such a comfort knowing Riley didn’t have to go stay somewhere else, but could stay in his own routine at home. I would HIGHLY recommend Chi and her pet sitting services to ALL my friends with furry friends. Riley received the care and attention he needed, and our house was very well kept. Chi is very friendly, trustworthy and dependable. Don’t even worry about stressing or planning for a trip to the kennel, just let Chi come over and take care of your little family at home. AND, she will update you as often as you’d like regarding your pets and their behavior. Call her today…You will not be disappointed!!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 16. I have experience watching dogs and cats as well as rabbits and chickens. I have watched young puppies all the way up to dogs that are 15. I have experience taking care of pets that need medications or medical attention from surgery. I work full time, but have a very flexible schedule. I am able to take your furry friend on walks, car rides, and to the park. I am available all days of the week to pet sitting as long as I have about a week’s notice of the days I am needed. I do live at an apartment, but we have a dog park and a ton of trails near me to walk. If you choose to have me come drop in at your house, I am very trustworthy and reliable. I have references from not only past pet sitting but also from clients whose houses I clean. I am okay with pets on my furniture and bed, but if they prefer to be in a crate I can make sure to accommodate.

“Great job taking care of our sweet Charley. Lots of communication and photos. Thanks so much!”

About: I can take care of multiple pets from all sizes and ages! I will try my best to give them the best experiences and love! I am available all day, but I do have a night-shift job from 6:00pm to 12am. Regardless, it does not stop me in trying to get the opportunities to help those in such necessities! Puppy owners, I have kennels! I have three loving dogs that are friendly towards each other in all ages and sizes! I own medium size home with a good sizeable yard.

About: I have loved and cared for a wide range of pets and personalities, understanding that each one has their own unique needs and routines. I take the time to ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for by carefully following instructions and maintaining consistency in their routine. I also provide regular communication, updates, and photos so owners can feel confident and connected while they’re away, unless requested otherwise. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy incorporating into my routine. While I work full-time Monday through Friday from 9 to 5, I am able to stay overnight in clients home so pets can stay comfortable and in their familiar space and routine. Depending on the location, I can also stop by during lunch breaks for walks, potty breaks, feedings, medications, and extra attention. I prioritize making pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I am very attentive when it comes to following all instructions, routines, and rules provided by pet owners to ensure pets remain comfortable and stress-free while in my care. I understand every pet has different personalities, boundaries, and needs, and I take the time to learn their mannerisms and routine so I can provide care that feels familiar and safe to them. Whether in my client’s home or during visits, my priority is always creating a calm, comfortable, and happy environment where pets feel secure and well cared for.

“Roneisha is a kind and gentle soul that India, my standard poodle absolutely loved. She house sat for me while I was out for 5 days. My home was clean and well kept and India was happy. I would highly recommend Roneisha to anyone looking for a responsible and caring person for your pet and home.”

“I have never left my dogs with anyone outside of family and friends because I was never comfortable. Who would take care of my kids as good as I do? That’s a big ask. But my work requires me to travel and I put it off until I couldn’t so I had to find someone. After scrolling through so many write ups on Rover I read Teri’s profile and I knew I found the right person. And when I met her in person for a meet and greet I was positive I had the right person. She gave me the peace of mind about leaving home and leaving my dogs in her care. Teri is down to earth, loves animals, and truly is in this business for them. But she also knows how hard it is for some of us Pawrents to leave our kids behind and Teri makes sure we humans feel comfortable too. I would prefer not to recommend her so I can have her for myself but I know all dogs and cats out there deserve the BEST and Teri is simply the best. I already have her booked for my next trip?”

Emily R.

“Having never left our 'babies' before with a live-in sitter, I was hesitant. However, from the first interaction Sydney began to put my worries at ease. She asked all of the right questions about them and their habits and while we were away she sent daily updates and pictures. She left our house in perfect order, including a detailed written log of everyday of her stay. I highly recommend her to anyone and plan on using her again for our 'kids'.”

About: I don’t just “watch” dogs, I hang out with them like they’re my own. I’ve got experience with all kinds of pups, from wild little puppies figuring things out to older dogs who need extra patience and care. I can help basic feedings, keep up with special diets, and even give meds if that’s part of their routine. I am a full time college student; however, I am happy to visit at any time throughout the day when I am not in classes. I am also completely available on the weekends! Id love to talk more about scheduling if needed. I will ensure that your pet stays safe by always keeping a watchful eye over them and ensuring they don't get up to any mischief!

About: I am a pet lover at heart. Every pet I meet, I gain an instant connection. Being a life long pet owner, I am sure to take good care of your furry family members! I am currently available at all times, and would not have any conflicts in scheduling. Whenever your furry friends need me, I can be there! I am comfortable caring for your pets in any environment, fenced in homes, apartments complex, etc. Your pets safety is a top priority of mine!
