Sarah confirmed everything in advance and asked great questions so we were on the same page. She was on time and took great care of my two dogs while we were away for the whole day. She is kind and friendly. We will use her again!

Megan was an absolute PRO! Not only did she take perfect care of our dog Duck, she went above and beyond and took care of scooping cat litter that we told her we could take care of when we got home. She gave us lots of updates during her stay, administered medicine to our dog, and made sure everyone got play time, plenty of food and water, and snuggles. Megan is the best! If you are looking for someone to make sure your pets are taken care of while you are away, look no further.

I am skilled in understanding the personality of dogs and cats and how to best adapt my energy to make sure they are attuned to in a soft, gentle way.

I have had dogs for over 30+years :) Available to help your pet 7 days of the week! For House Sitting - I can be there the full amount of time as I work remote making sure I can take your fur baby out at all intervals throughout the day! I offer sweet energy to meet and greet your pet so that it feels comfortable going as slow as needed for your pet to feel comfortable.

About: I would love to take care of medium and smaller dog breeds.(Well behaved large dogs are fine too).I am also well knowledgable on how to take care of cats and kittens.(they are my speciality):) Keeping animals healthy and happy in their own home is what it's all about.Because I have a large fur family of my own,I know what i would want in a petsitter .i would want to feel confident in leaving home and have someone who really enjoys spending time with them. You will get updates and pictures daily I can provide Senior care and give medicines. I can provide references outside of Rover from other pet parents. I am a stay at home wife.All of my kids are grown and flown the nest so I am free to pet sit most anytime. I would rather care for your pet in your home where they are most comfortable and stress free.I will follow your instructions on daily care.

Oh my goodness there needs to be 100 stars. She is phenomenal. Our dog received the best treatment. She is so knowledgeable about the proper nutrition he needed and the overall care of him. I really learned alot about caring for our senior dog. Her personality is just remarkable. You want go wrong with getting her for your furbabies.

About: I have always had a dog that I could share adventures with. I know the feeling when you are busy with work and need a reliable dog walker or house sitter that will care for your dog just as you would. Now that I have time, I would like to help others with that. I am available to housesit your dog most any weekend and beginning June 1 through August 15th, I am available to house sit most anytime. I have been a teacher for 20 years, so safety is always at the center of each decision. If I were caring for a dog in another family's home, I would be mindful of security, house alarms, locks, and also what the pet could possibly get into inside the home that could be dangerous. I would follow all requests and procedures in the home indicated by the family.

About: Growing up I’ve always owned dogs and I love taking care of my own dog who has high needs. I love walking dogs and always enjoy seeing new dogs roaming about. I have a very open schedule, and that is why I was ready to start with Rover to kind of control my own scheduling. My week is open for plenty of dog walks or dropping visits for pets. I am excited to start working with you. I have one dog and two cats. I walk my dog at least five times a day. She is a terrier and needs extra exercise. I have two cats who are indoor. I change their litter box weekly and scoop it daily. Keeping a good hygiene for cats is extremely important for your home so I value that very much. My pets names are Oreo for my dog Millie and pumpkin on my cats.

Really appreciate Amanda staying with out boys while we took a short little vacation. She took them for a swim in the river by our house and it's obvious that they were well taken care of while we were gone. She also sent us pics of them enjoying themselves while we were gone. It was also clear that she also took the time to straighten up the house and vacuum before we got back. Would highly recommend her and will definitely look to her again for our next trip.

About: I started working in boarding kennels straight out of high school 13 years ago. I did that until I got into dog grooming 6 years ago. I’m looking to get back into the passion of caring for all sorts of dogs not just cutting their hair now that I’m home full time. I have experience in administering medication, and any special dietary needs. I have a two year old daughter, Laeton. She’s in daycare during the week periodically & My availability is pretty flexible. I look forward to meeting you & your fur babies soon 🤗🥰🐶🐾 I am a stay at home mom, looking to make some extra money, i have stepped out of working a full time job to be home with my two year old daughter because daycare is unfortunately unreliable so , I'm home about 80 percent of the time. I will feed / water them twice a day walks 4x a day. I have a field beside my house , I live in the country. I am also available to pick up dogs and take them on walks , I’m all about taking pictures so I’ll definitely blow your phone up with pictures while your baby is in my care.
