House Sitting in Fort Irwin

“Menna did an amazing job watching our two dogs and cat. She sent wonderful updates throughout the trip, really putting us at ease. She gave a lot of quality time and attention to our pets. Reliable and responsive. We would absolutely trust her with our pets again.”

“Avril was very communicative and helped watch Julius with short notice! She sent pics, kept me updated, and helped keep my house tidy as well. Would def hire her again.”

“Chelsea is truly the best dog sitter and house sitter we have ever had!!!!!! We cannot recommend her enough and we really look forward to her next sit. She took amazing care of our elderly chihuahua, our black lab and our 4 chickens. She collected our mail and even helped out with managing renters who were staying in our house and kept our home in top cleanliness. Everyday she sent us heartwarming pictures of the animals enjoying life, playing, eating and cuddling with her. When we returned from our trip they looked as happy and healthy as ever! We've had many people sit our dogs and they often were in pretty bad emotional shape by the time we got home. But not with Chelsea! We were incredibly impressed and thankful for her care. She has truly proved herself to be someone who is trustworthy, compassionate, very responsible and truly has the best interest of all in her heart. She even left us a card with doggie treats when we got home! If you are looking for a thoughtful, responsible, prompt, caring and communicative sitter, look no further than Chelsea! Thank you so much! What a great experience!”

About: Hello, my name is Becca. Currently, there are two spoiled pets in my household and I would only love to do the same for you! I can teach your dogs tricks, and make sure they get the proper amount of exercise and care. I have days all over the place I can be available for you! So just ask me an we can defiantly work something out. I am a dog and cat lover for sure and I will make sure your pet is taken care of just as if it was my own. They will be spoiled and loved unconditionally and they are aloud to mark their territory wherever their little heart desires. I worked in a veterinarian office for a year so I have a little experience in that department. I also have a baby in my household now and she loves animals. I am Military wife who is home all the time. As far as daycare and boarding, we can’t offer these service because my dog has high anxiety. But as far as going to your house we can totally work that out. I am very flexible, but my daughter will have to come along with me for each visit. My dog gets taken out about six times a day, I just let her out the back door and sit with her or we go for a walk. She eats twice daily and is always provided water. My cat gets fed twice daily and we scoop her liter box daily and we change it every week. I follow pet owner’s instructions despite the care my pets get. I also will make sure that each pet is given the love and attention needed in order to make their experience perfect.

About: I have been in the Veterinary medicine field for a little over 13 years. I currently work as the head veterinary technician at the Fort Irwin Veterinary Treatment Facility. I am extremely passionate in what I do. I live on a military installation where I’m unable to have a pet of my own, and that was my inspiration to join Rovr. I am well-versed in all aspects of animal care. From picking up poop, medicine administration, feeding, recognizing behavior patterns, wound management, all the way to emergency care. I was taught to always treat and see someone’s pet as a family member. And I have always kept that with me since I started my journey. You can relax knowing your family member is being taken great care of! If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask! Since I work at the veterinary treatment facility on Fort Irwin, I am essentially only available on the weekends. I try to make myself available nearly every weekend. I live alone in an apartment with no pets of my own. But I live in close proximity to a handful of parks. I can take pets too.

“Took great care of my dog while I was away, she even slept over to make sure my dog was sleeping well. Would recommend her to anyone”

About: Hi Puppy Parents!! My name is Shelby and I have owned and taken care of several animals for over the years from a 19 year old senior dog with special needs to a pregnant cat and her newborn babies! I've worked with many different dog breeds, from Cane Corsos to Chihuahuas and have loved my time with all of them! I'm currently not working so have ample time to socialize and engage with your pups! I absolutely LOVE playing and working with pets, right now I am really enjoying training my new rescue as well as caring for my foster dog, Annie and her 2 week old baby, Bridger. I live in a 1,000+ square feet condo with plenty of room to run and play. Your pup will have access to plenty of outdoor activities as I have a dog park very close, as well as several hiking trails super close by! I like to bring my dog to one big activity a day whether it is a hike or going to the dog park to get out some energy. We would love it if your pup would want to join us for those activities but if they prefer to stay home that’s totally fine too! And then we do TONS of enrichment activities afterwards to stimulate his super smart and mischievous brain! I do not have a yard because I am on the second story but I have a fenced in deck my dog loves to soak up the sun on! I take my puppy out every hour/hour and a half on a little walk around town (.5 miles). Depending on your pups specific needs we could make these walks longer or shorter! :) I am not working anymore, so I have ample time to play and love on your pup in whatever way they need! I also have a pup who loves to play or snuggle with whatever dog is with us for the day! I have a 2 year old puppy to keep your dog company if they are interested, but can also be separated as my pup is crate trained and we have 2 big bedrooms that they can have their own space in if need be! Taken out for potty breaks often! Please let me know your pups daily routine so that I can make this transition as easy as possible for them. If your pet has any specific needs, the more I know the better, I can provide and care for your baby!! :)

“Erica was awesome, she was very responsive and incredibly accommodating. Our animals immediately took a liking to her and we were very comfortable leaving them in her care for the weekend.”

“We hired Mary to care for our two dogs while we were away for three days. We did a meet and greet and our dogs really loved the attention Mary gave them. While we were gone, Mary updated us with pictures and even brought in our Amazon packages. When we came back Mary left the house spotless. Our dogs must of had a good time because they keep going back to our guest room to look for her.”

About: I provide reliable care for both cats and dogs backed by years of hands-on work. My goal is a comfortable, no-stress experience for both you and your pet. I’ve worked with several animal rescues over the years and regularly foster animals in need. I’ve handled animals with many kinds of special needs, from bottle-feeding kittens to administering mediations to seniors. I also care for feral cats, so animals who are feisty don’t faze me! I truly love getting to know each pet I watch and making them feel as comfortable as possible while their family is away. I do my best to keep your pet(s) on their usual routine while you’re away, and always provide them with loving care. I’m patient and adaptable, personalizing care to each pet, whether that means playtime, cozy snuggles, or just keeping a calm presence nearby. I’m happy to communicate updates as much or as little as you prefer, and will send you photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe and comfortable. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or special requests. I’m always open to discussing pricing, availability or anything else you’d like more information on. Talk soon! I work remotely from home. Caring for pets and spending time with them is something I have the luxury of doing throughout the day. The other work I do is flexible so caring for animals is my top priority. When boarding your pet, I provide a dedicated, comfortable space just for them, with everything they need to feel safe and at home. Each pet gets their own room (unless there are multiple from the same household) in a sanitized area, complete with cozy bedding, toys, and anything specific to their care. For dogs, I have a spacious, secure backyard where they can enjoy playtime and walks. I take the time to ensure they’re comfortable, relaxed, and loved while they’re away from home. When caring for your pet at your home, I stick to their routine, including feeding, medication, and plenty of playtime and affection. I respect your home and any guidelines you provide, making sure your pet feels safe, secure, and cherished while you’re away. And if you’d like, I’ll gladly share photo or video updates with you! I know how hard it is missing your babies when you’re away, and I’d love to help you feel at ease and show you they’re being well cared for.

About: I have grown up with dogs for most of my life, I have helped raised 5 dogs in my family's home. I have learned to raise dogs since they were born. I've learned how to train them when I used to go to doggy training at petco. How to keep them active, how to play with them, relax with them, bathe them. I know such a good amount of knowledge and it still surprises me when I learn something new. I love and adore dogs. I am currently active duty, so my schedule usually ends with work off after 3 or 3:30pm. I am available weekends for whatever your animal needs. When I usually see my family and help care for the family pets, I love taking them to a park or a nice hike/walk. I think it's super important for dogs to be as active as possible (well at least untill they used up all their energy for the day) to make sure they get their bones and muscles moving to keep them healthy. Then a nice warm bath to make sure they stay clean and fresh. I usually like to spend at least a hour with redoing the tricks they have been taught. So it stays fresh in their memory and to make sure they aren't getting rusty on doing the trick. Then usually it's the end of the day, the dog had exceeded the energy for the day and it is now ready to relax. Anything you need help with for your animal can be taken care of.
