House Sitting in Etowah

“Maria was such a pleasure to work with and to have watch our fur babies. She went above and beyond to make sure that our home was tidy and cleaned up when we got back. Both of our pups took a liking to her very quickly and we will definitely be using her services again soon. She also asked all the right questions and when she needed clarity on something she did not hesitate to reach out which I think communication is key. I highly recommend Maria to anyone out there who is looking for a trusted and responsible individual to care for their home and their pet family.”

“Amber is so caring and attentive to our 3 elderly dogs. We went out of town for 4 days and she sent us frequent pictures and updates. 5/5 or if I could giver her a 10/10!! We’ll definitely be booking her again!”

“Ginger does a great job with our couch loving boxer rescue. This was the second time she stayed in our home and we hope to have her visit again.”

“I was nervous about someone we just met staying in my home with my dogs while we were away. Also, I have three pitties who come with a LOT of energy. Chris did an excellent job of making us feel comfortable at the two meet and greets, as well as this past weekend while we were in Tennessee. She was communicative and very helpful. She left the house cleaner than when she arrived. It’s safe to say that, given how it has gone so far, we are much more confident going to France for almost two weeks in a few days here. We’re confident Chris will take care of our home and pups. Got ourselves a dog sitter.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats my whole life, with most of my experience in small and medium dogs, cats, and senior pets. I love the unconditional love animals give and show that same care by keeping their routine consistent and their needs fully met. To help pets feel more comfortable with me in their own homes, I take time to make them feel safe by interacting with them and letting them warm up to me (at an in-home meet-and-greet beforehand). I’m experienced with giving medications, following special diets, and handling pets with unique needs. Owners can count on me being highly communicative - sending updates as much (or as little) as you prefer. I’m a full time in-home physical therapist and bring empathy and attentiveness to my patients on a daily basis. I bring this same level of care and dedication to my petsitting. You can trust me to treat your pets with the same love and respect you do. I currently work 4 - 10 hour days but can stay over and spend as much time as possible with your pet(s). I do work M-W and F but can be there all day Thursday and weekends. I will come to your house. Walk, feed, love on your pets. I can collect mail, take out trash and leave your place how I found it.

“Brenda was wonderful with our girl. I REALLY appreciated the picture updates. Kept me updated throughout our trip on how our Hazel was doing. I will definitely be reaching out to Brenda for our future sittings. Thank you Brenda!!”

About: I have absolutely loved animals ever since I can remember and have helped take care of my families dogs, and I am confident in my own ability to care for your beloved pet as well! I help feed and walk my families dogs and of course play whenever they so cutely demand. As I am home from college for the summer my schedule is extremely flexible and I can’t wait to take care of your furry family members! I can feed and administer any oral medication needed with clear directions as well as take longer walks (2-3 miles) as I do at home with my own two dogs.

“Our regular dog/house sitter cancelled on us with three weeks notice. A sitter I had booked months in advance. Trying to find a new sitter is very stressful as you want your pets to have the best possible care in your absence. Having selected a few from the Rover site. Juliann responded to our initial request. We are so happy that she did. Juliann requested a meet and great to see if our dogs where a good fit for her. Upon meeting Juliann we were completely confident in her ability to provide excellent care for ours dogs and our home in our absence. Juliann is by far the best dog/house sitter we have ever had. She arrived on time and and sent us updates and photos daily. Our dogs wanted for nothing. Juliann went way above and beyond. Our dogs loved their time with her. Our home was spotless when we arrived back from our trip. Juliann even went as far as to wash all the bed linens and remake the bed in our bedroom. We can’t say enough about quality of care she provided. We where extremely lucky to have found Juliann on the Rover site and you will be too! She is simply the best.”

“Susan was great!! From our original meet and greet through her first house sitting while I was out of town. Communication was spot on, pictures of Rocky, walks even when it rained ALL DAY LONG. I recommend and have already rebooked a second house sitting.”

About: Able to bond with animals easily. Have had several dogs over the span of their life ( some for 17 years ) Know what to look for in regards to medical, exercise, and lap time. Would treat them like my own, and mine are my family. I am retired, have dependable transportation, and always ten minutes early. I am retired and have very few obligations. When I commit to a schedule for your pet, that becomes my priority. Accepting all schedule suggestions. Dax..a mixed breed rescue is going on 10 this year. He has a porch and an outside dog run along the side of the house. He tends to venture off to the neighbors dogs when he finds the opportunity. So he is leash walked when we go out. He has a free run of the house, as well as my brothers dog when she visits ( bernadoodle )

About: I've had all different kinds of pets throughout my life (cats, dogs, rabbits, ducks) - and have lived on homesteads with farm animals too. Most recently I've been full time house and pet sitting over the last year while traveling. I have completed 24 assignments with glowing off the charts 5 star reviews. House/pet sitting has been one of the the most special things I've ever done. You can be sure your pup will get daily walks in local parks or trails, playtime in the yard or the dog park, and lots of cuddle time too - there will be no shortage of affection and attention. Please note that my two children do accompany me on overnight pet sitting assignments. They are wonderful with animals and under my supervision the entire time, though please be sure your pets are comfortable and okay with children prior to sending a booking request. Thank you! I'm a work from home, homeschooling mother. I have curated our lifestyle such that we have flexibility throughout the day. I always welcome an opportunity to get outside with your pups for a walk and play time. Please note that I do overnight pet sits with my two children. I supervise them at all times, and they are wonderful with animals, though please be sure your pets are comfortable and okay with children prior to sending a request for booking. I regard pet and house sitting as an honor and responsibility. Caring for what people love and cherish most. I bring my heart and presence to each assignment, insuring your pets are always in a safe loving and enriching environment, with an attentive and trustworthy caregiver.

About: I am the one who walks the dog(s) since childhood. I currently live with a chill pug and a very loving protective Cain Corso. I will most likely be able to devote attention all day due to my free schedule. Understanding the emotions of animals is simple for me. So anxious, scared, and lonely dogs are easy to communicate with. Its only the past 3 years that I have ever gotten paid to take care of dogs. My schedule could not be more free at the moment. I will update this if that ends up changing. I suppose it is nice to spend holidays with family though. My pug doesn’t go on long walks any more but I walk my big dog every day. I enjoy playing with my dogs everyday. My cain corso who appeared a little after the hurricane loves attention, usually in the form of belly rubs. My pug likes to cuddle and always has to be around the humans to feel at home. The dogs usually sleep in my bed. When I meet a new dog I let usually let them smell me and get lower so I am not standing over them.

“Michael is absolutely fantastic. This was the second time he stayed with my pups. It was a unique situation involving a hospital stay and unknown discharge date. He was flexible and worked with me to ensure my pups were well taken care and never left alone.”

About: I’ve had several dogs of my own and lived with others: lab/pit mix, pits, two German Shepherds, a Great Dane, a friendly chihuahua, and an evil chihuahua. I’ve rescued dogs off the street, and am all around good with animals. I have a job that gives me a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I do travel from time to time, which is why I don’t have a pup of my own. I can be whatever your dog needs. If he’s old, we can relax together; full of energy? We can throw sticks around and run. Small and skittish? Food is a great incentivizer to build trust. I’m looking to make some extra cash and enjoy the company of your pets. I will make sure your dog is happy, fed, played with, and comfortable. I only take on one client at a time, so owners do not have to worry about their pets interacting with another owner's pets. Your loved ones will have my undivided attention.

“This was our first time using Rover. I knew when Megan came to meet us we had nothing to worry about leaving our dog with her. She sent us pictures while we were gone and we had a worry free time away. Thanks!”

About: My name is Alina and I would like to take care of your beloved pet. I am willing to do many things if needed without question. This means drop-in sitting, home stays, and dog walking. I will try my best to accommodate all of your specific needs for each pet. The people that I have pet sat for have say that I am great at my job. My prices are very reasonable. I am very reasonable when it comes to money and the time of the appointments. I am also honest and trustworthy. If you need anything like this, do not hesitate to contact me thru text, call, or email. I am looking forward to taking care of your pets for you when you need it. ATTENTION: I charge a $20 fee if your home is more than 35 mins from Sylva, NC. Pet care fits into my daily and/or weekly routine quite easily because due to me being on and off jobs which are mainly at night. I care for pets in your home by following all the instructions you give especially when it comes to going outside, with a leash or whatever the client prefers me to use.

“Amanda is excellent with our Shiloh. Highly recommend her. We have used her twice and have had and excellent experience both times. Will definitely use her again if she is available as she books up quickly.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Cate! I felt comfortable with Cate after meeting her. She was attentive to details, very pleasant, and took great care of our house and animals. I recommend Cate and will use her again in the future. Hsyden”
