House Sitting Forbush

About: Been around dogs since I was little and offically took care of them when I was 8. Animals all around have been welcomed into my life whether they have four legs or not. Currently I am not working so it gives me more time to take care and play with your furry friends! I am available almost all hours of the day and can be contacted at anytime if in need of anything! I can easily bathe, clean, feed, brush, refill water for cats along with taking the time to play with them to ensure their daily enrichment for the day. For dogs I can easily help by simply brush, feeding, playing, being put into their crates, or even walking when needed to get their exercise and let them use the bathroom.

“Suzanne was a loving, caring and joyful person who took great care of our dog while housesitting. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone in need, and we will certainly be a repeat customer of hers. Thank you, Suzanne!”

About: Hi, I’m Amy! I believe pets are family, and I’ll treat yours with kindness, patience, and attention. Whether your dog enjoys walks and playtime or your cat prefers quiet company, I’ll take the time to learn what helps them feel comfortable. I’ll follow your instructions closely, respect your home, and keep you updated with photos and messages. From meals and fresh water to walks, litter box care, and companionship, my goal is to help your pets feel safe and loved while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and am available weekdays, nights, and weekends. This allows me to plan walks, drop-in visits, and quality time around your pet’s usual routine, giving them the care and attention they need while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities. In your home, I’ll follow your care instructions and familiar routines for feeding, walks, and playtime. I’ll check that doors and gates are secure, use a leash on walks, and respect your space. You can expect photo updates, clear communication, and plenty of patient, loving attention while you’re away.

“Iman did a fantastic job house sitting with our dogs and cat while we were traveling. She was responsive and left everything spotless. Would recommend for others in the area.”

About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and ages. I have three large dogs of my own, and my family breeds dogs, so I have experience caring for entire litters of puppies. I understand how much patience, attention, and care puppies need as they grow. I’m comfortable around large dogs and love getting to know each dog's unique personality. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I will always do my best to make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away! I recently switched to PRN at the hospital, which gives me more flexibility with my schedule. I’m starting nursing school in January, so pet sitting is a great way for me to spend my free time doing something I love while earning extra income. I have three dogs of my own, so caring for animals is already a part of my daily life. I’m able to work with pet owners to find a schedule that works best for them and their pets, and I look forward to giving every pet plenty of love, attention, and care while their owners are away! I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. I follow the owner's instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications if needed, and playtime to keep their pet's routine as normal as possible. Since I have three large dogs of my own and experience helping my family care for litters of puppies, I'm comfortable handling different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a clean, safe space. I also love sending updates and pictures so owners can feel at ease knowing their pets are being well cared for!

About: When I was 10, I kept my tamagotchi Dalmatian alive for 2 months. If for some reason that doesn't impress you...buckle up and read on. Most of the sitter profiles on Rover claim their "Pet Care Experience" and "love for animals" began in childhood. They will use every animal interaction they've had in the past 25 years as “Pet Care Experience.” Um...no. Let's break this down. 1. You feeding Cheetos to the family of feral cats living in that field next to your Elementary School. Might have earned you a scouting badge. However, it doesn't count towards your "experience." 2. Loving animals as a kid is not something unique. Nor does it equate having "experience." Is anyone here shocked by the news that a child loves animals?? No, of course not. Ever asked a child what their favorite animal is? Only to have the answer be, "None. I hate all animals. Animals are the worst." Nope you haven't. (If you have, that child is most likely going to be a serial killer or work at a slaughter house. Proceed with caution.) Alright.. moving right along... here's a little about me: From birth to now I've had a wide range of animals. The list is long but it ends at most birds. I don’t do most birds. Well Ducks? yes. Sparrows, parrots, albatross? No, no thanks. I did have peacocks growing up and my dad owned an Ostrich farm for several years.. which is super weird. Let's move on...Don’t really do cats in my home either. For multiple reasons. Bird & cat pets aside. Im pro-pet. Hip hip!! Sidebar*** (we have a bearded dragon and a Greek Tortoise. If you have a reptile or small animal that need to be boarded or dropped in on. we would be happy to help you with that.) Like any normal pet owner, I enjoy keeping my animals alive and healthy. Not once have I tried to starve my animals or neglect them in such a way that would render them a spot on the sad commercial with the “Arms of the Angel” song playing in the background. Those owners are the worst. Lucky for you...I am not the worst! Sarcasm aside…I’ll treat your pets like I would want someone to treat my pets. I’ll accommodate their/your needs and give you peace of mind as you vacation or do time in prison. (No judgements) If your animal has medical issues, a drug or alcohol addiction, gang affiliation, is running from the law or needs special care. I got it. If I don’t got it… I’ll Google it. Chat GPT is amazing! Duh! Unless your Pekinese needs a kidney transplant or your doodle wants a face lift. I should be able to keep them happy! I walk my dogs every day, if your pet wants to join us, great. If not, great. Sleep on the bed or sleep on the floor? Again don’t care. Im good with both. Last and certainly not least… There is 1 thing I will not do. I refuse to call your dog a fur baby or any other lame name like that. Why? Because it's weird and stupid. I cringe & immediately check out of a conversation when someone starts talking about “furbabies.” I just can’t. Plus your pet doesn’t like it either. They just put up with it because you feed them. I’m a stay at home mom. While my kid is at school and I do normal homemaker things. We have some after school activities & events but for the most part we will be around. These questions….I’ll make sure to put away all of my broken glass pieces and lock the door to the room where I keep all the poisons and explosives… whatever. My house is safe, I have a yard, real safe. If you have special requests just tell me and I’ll do what you ask me to do…unless it’s weird or gross.

About: I've been caring for animals for over 10 years and have always had a passion for pets. I have experience house-sitting, feeding, walking, cleaning up after, and caring for dogs and cats for neighbors, family, and friends. Growing up with pets has taught me that every animal is unique, and I treat each one with the same love, patience, and attention I'd give my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I'm a graduate student completing my degree online while working about 30 hours a week in my internship. Outside of work and school, I spend most of my time with my family, my boyfriend, and at church on Wednesdays and Sundays. My schedule is generally flexible, and I do my best to accommodate pet owners' needs whenever possible. I often spend time accompanying the dogs with snuggles and a couple of hours of playtime a day. I provide food and water for the animals as instructed by the owner as each owner has a different approach. I often take dogs on one or two walks a day because exercise is extremely beneficial for pets.

About: I have over 40 years experience with pets. I had my own luxury pet sitting business in Miami, FL before I moved here. I'm reliable, professional and caring. I'm not only here for you pet but for your peace of mind that your pet and home are safe in my hands. I've had birds, a pig, a mini horse, rats, cats and dogs. I specialize in helping ill and/or elderly pets. I'm certified in Pet CPR from the Red Cross. I can administer medications and work with any quirks your pet may have. This is my full time job. I can give my full attention to your pet. Whenever your pet needs me, I can be there for them. Safety is very important to me so I make sure things are put away that could harm your pet. I make sure floors and litters are clean. I make sure food and water is always available and in reach.

“Brittany was so kind with Prince; he was his normal self when I arrived home which means he didn’t miss a beat when it came to eating, walking, playing, etc. she sent pictures and went out of her way to make sure everything went great; whenever our schedules align I’ll definitely choose her to stay with my little sleepy guy!”

“Kate was great! Our dog, Rufus, warmed up to her right away and seemed very happy. Kate kept in touch over the weekend and sent photos and updates. It was very easy to relax knowing Rufus was in good hands. Will definitely book again! Thanks, Kate!”

About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring pet lover who understands how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I’ve cared for pets of different sizes and personalities, including dog-sitting a Golden Retriever in my home and providing a safe, loving environment for two cats during a three-month stay while their owner was out of town. I’ve also looked after a family friend’s Pekingese on and off for six years, giving me experience with long-term, consistent pet care. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and a comfortable environment. Whether your pet needs companionship while you’re away or a reliable caregiver they can feel at home with, I’d love the opportunity to help give you peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I work full-time Monday through Friday, but my schedule allows me to provide reliable pet care before and after work. My work hours are: * Monday: 8:30 AM–2:00 PM * Tuesday: 9:15 AM–4:00 PM * Wednesday: 8:20 AM–3:30 PM * Thursday: 9:15 AM–2:30 PM * Friday: 8:30 AM–3:30 PM I’m available for morning visits before work, evening visits after work, and have additional availability on weekends. I make pet care a priority by sticking to each pet’s routine and ensuring they receive plenty of attention, care, and updates while you’re away. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they have fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, plenty of playtime and attention, and any other care requested by the owner. I always treat each home with respect, keep the space clean, and provide regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.

“Abbey and her pup Layla Grayce were great! They arrived on time and both were very personable and friendly. I knew immediately that she had a lot of experience and that they would fit in with our pups. She kept us updated with photos and text messages all day. I highly recommend Abbey and would not hesitate to ask her to sit our pups if we travel to Winston Salem again!”

“Blanca was amazing!!! She stayed overnight with my 2 dogs. One dog is senior and the other we’ve only had for 3 months from the shelter. She taught the new dog several commands while giving lots of lovin to my senior dog. I will definitely book again! Thanks Blanca!”

About: Experience with my own pets growing up and through my adulthood. Started walking a neighborhood dog in the 3rd grade! I can't wait to meet your babies. I create my own animal-friendly schedule). I love the flexibility I have and think it will also be helpful for other pet parents. I am an active person and love to go on walks and explore. I have a large and small fenced area /yard at my house. I have a nice neighborhood for great walks. I have a sweet small-sized pup, a large pup, and two kitties; all are familiar with kids, cats, and even large dogs. I am very cognizant of what each animal may need and their cues.

“Erika did a fantastic job with our girls! They bonded with her almost immediately. This was our 2nd time using Erika and we plan to continue using her services anytime we need a sitter in our home. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation. She is trustworthy and dependable.”
