4. Jennifer F.
“Jennifer did a WONDERFUL job house-sitting and taking care of my 2 Chihuahuas and 3 cats. The Chihuahuas were a challenge because, as much as I've tried, they just don't take to strangers in the home very quickly and Jennifer handled it like a champ and they eventually settled down warmed up to her. I would absolutely hire her again!!”

About: I grew up on a small farm with horses, chickens, dogs and cats. We’ve had German Shepards, labs, and pit bulls. I’ve also dog-sat for my brother, who has smaller dogs like chihuahuas. I can confidently walk any dog, and am comfortable with different dietary or medical needs. I currently have reoccurring daily dog walks scheduled between 10am-2pm, and I usually work overnight shifts. I will do my best to fit you into my schedule! Your pets safety is my top priority. Whether it’s a drop in or a walk around the neighborhood, your fur baby will be well taken care of.
9. Cassandra V.
“Cassandra was wonderful with our animals. She took great care of our funny farm. She sent me pictures daily and reminded us that the animals were safe in her care. Our goat ended up losing his horn while we were gone so she was able to clean him up for us and made sure the bleeding stopped. We would love to have her house sit again for us in the future.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 16 years old and recently have added ducks and baby chicks to my resume. I always strive to make sure the animals I am taking are as loved as they normally are when you are home. I do my best to go above what I am asked to do to provide the most comfort not only for your pet but for you as well. I have two pups of my own so I completely understand wanting the best for your own fur baby I work as a hair assistant during the week but have the availability to work with you on making sure your pets needs are meet during the day. Weekends are another story and I typically have plenty of free time to help in any way that I can. I live in an apartment so I do not offer boarding services, but I have no problem commuting. I always want your pet(s) to feel as comfortable as if you were home. I make sure all of their needs are met and strive to make sure that they will be comfortable at all times. I also make sure you are updated in detail while your pet is in my care.

“I recently had the pleasure of assisting my girlfriend, who happens to be an incredible pet sitter. As a witness to her exceptional care and dedication towards the animals she looks after, I can confidently say that she is one of the best in the business. From the moment she steps through the door, it's evident that she has a natural affinity for animals. She takes the time to get to know each furry friend on a personal level, quickly understanding their routines and preferences. It's this attention to detail that sets her apart. One of the most impressive aspects of her pet sitting services is her ability to maintain consistency. She understands that animals thrive when their routines are followed, and she goes above and beyond to ensure that each pet she cares for adheres to their established schedule. Whether it's feeding times, play sessions, or walks, she keeps everything in perfect harmony. Beyond routine, she also excels in providing the love and companionship that animals crave. Her genuine affection for every pet is evident in the way she interacts with them. She has a remarkable ability to establish trust and build strong connections, allowing the animals to feel at ease and comfortable in her presence. As an animal lover myself, it warms my heart to see her shower them with care and attention. Another noteworthy aspect of her service is her commitment to safety. She takes all necessary precautions to ensure the well-being of the pets under her care. From secure environments to appropriate handling techniques, she prioritizes the safety and security of each animal as if they were her own. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Her passion for animals, dedication to maintaining their routines, and ability to provide love and companionship make her an exceptional pet sitter. If you're looking for someone who will go above and beyond to ensure your furry friend receives the best care possible, she is the perfect choice. You can trust her wholeheartedly with your beloved pets. To sum it up, my girlfriend's pet sitting services are simply outstanding. She has a natural talent for understanding and connecting with animals, while simultaneously keeping their routines intact. If you want a pet sitter who will treat your furry friends like family, look no further.”

“Ivan is one of the sweetest individuals I have ever met and so good with animals! I don't trust my pets with many people, especially since my older dog has on set dementia/ health issues and doesn't like people but he loved Ivan instantly. Ivan has stayed in my home and taken care of my 3 pets like they are their own and given them the love and care they needed. I trust Ivan fully with my babies. And Ivan is one sitter I would highly recommend! The compassion they have for animals is unmatched!”

About: I have loved and worked with animals for as long as I can remember. I have always had pets in my house until now and would love to be able to help someone out while also spending time with their best furry friend(s). I love walking and being outside just as much as I love animals so your pets will definitely get the exercise that they need while still being carefully cared for and loved of course. As far as experience goes, I have always had at least one dog and cat in my home for the full 22 Years I have been alive. I have volunteered and worked on farms and in other animal care facilities with various animals and pets. I have watched others pets in their homes as well as mine numerous times and am always looking for new opportunities to meet and get to know more pets. I am currently unemployed besides doing care for Rover so my schedule is pretty much open. I love animals and caring for them as well as making sure they're happy. I like to make sure the environment I'm in, is at the very least, comfortable for everyone. I am highly animal friendly and love all types of animals.
