About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my diverse experience and adaptability to meet the unique needs of every pet. I have a special focus on both puppies and senior pets, offering tailored care for each stage of life. With puppies, I provide basic training, reinforcing positive behaviors and helping with crate training, potty training, and socialization. For senior pets, I’m attentive to their special needs, offering extra comfort, gentle exercise, and medication management. Additionally, I pride myself on building a strong bond with pets, ensuring they feel safe and loved in my care. Whether it’s administering medications or managing special diets, I take the time to make sure every pet receives the highest level of personalized attention and care. Caring for someone else's pet fits into my daily routine by ensuring they are fed, exercised, and given attention, just like I would for my own pet. I make time for walks or play sessions, and check in on their well-being. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their feeding, exercise, and medication routines. I ensure the pet is safe, comfortable, and engaged with regular play or walks. I also maintain a clean environment and provide updates to the client. My goal is to offer the same care and attention the pet is used to.
“Amazing!! Haille did great with stella and i would 100% book again with her. She was very kind, and I’m glad my dog was able to have some nice company!!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals of every kind my whole life. Have always been around animals and love to cuddle with all fur babies :) I’m currently a stay at home mom so I always have plenty of time to walk your pups and take them on little adventures :) I will follow the precautions you set out for me when I enter your home and follow what you prefer to keep your fur baby safe.
“Maria was wonderful and stayed with our dog for an extended time. She is easy to communicate with and very kind to our fur baby. We will definitely book with Maria again.”
About: Growing up, my family always had cats and dogs, and I am very comfortable with all animals, young and old. Throughout graduate school, I have lived with many cats (and even two rats!), and I became very familiar with skills such as pilling cats, giving nebulizer treatments, and applying other topical medications. In the past few years, I've also been casually dog sitting for a few local families while finishing my schooling, and am excited to expand my services to Rover to meet new pets and their families. Now that I've graduated and am in between jobs, my schedule is very flexible. I don't mind getting up early for pet care, and will gladly stop by multiple times a day to care for your furry friends. Currently, I have two cats of my own. My cats follow a strict schedule for breakfast and dinner, and have their litter boxes and water cleaned daily. I am very adaptable and can follow any instructions that you give regarding care for your pets. I am available to do drop-in visits, or can do short- or long-term stays for housesitting.
About: I have a special needs pup, so am good at giving medication and doing physical therapy exercises. I am also an outdoor enthusiast who is extremely patient, so I will take your dog out on the trail (if ok) and let them smell things as long as they want and provided it is safe to sniff! I do work a full time job, but remotely. I prefer morning, evenings, or weekends. And if I'm pet sitting, I will make sure to stick around and give your pet some attention- even during work days as I can work remotely! I follow medications and schedules. I will walk dogs I'm pet sitting a minimum of twice a day with let out in the middle of the day. I also believe attention, if the animal wants it, is important!
“Madi was great for our pups. She communicated well. Very pleased for our first time having someone into our home to take care of them. Will be using again.”
“Robyn stayed at the house with my 2 dogs and cat while I was away recently. Wow so grateful to have found her! She took lots of notes ahead of time and was very meticulous about instructions and listening to all my tips and pet quirks! One of my dogs was on medication during her stay and she did a great job with that unexpected complication. Very good experience and will definitely be looking to book again next time I go away!”
“If I could give Jim 10 stars, I would. We were in a pinch and our normal house sitter was unable to watch our dogs. We took our little one with us but our 2 yr old GSD needed a friend. He stepped right up and offered his weekend. Not only did he spend most of the day with her but he gave her lots of walks, playtime in the yard and love. She is a nervous dog and requires alot of patience and stimulation. She has never been without her little buddy either. Jim truly cares about the animals he signs up for. He gave me lots of updates, took pics/videos and asked questions. We would recommend him to anyone! Worth every penny.”
About: took care of neighbors big dogs for years as well as my own very large dogs also currently taking care of two cute little guinea pigs Pet care is something i am so passionate about doing and would love to work with others animals and to help out in any way possible. I want to keep the pets as comfortable as possible but get to know them and gain their trust. I cannot wait to get to know some new doggies.
