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.

About: I am comfortable around cats of all ages,medium and small dogs too. I have been fostering for 14 years .Over that time I have saved over 400 kittens and momma cats from the shelter. 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. 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.

Pamela quickly became like part of the family. Elliott was so excited to see her each day. She gave him plenty of entertainment, and was attentive and appropriate in her care. We were able to leave Elliott with her with perfect peace of mind knowing he was in competent and caring hands.

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: I focus on making dogs and cats feel relaxed and at home. I’m patient with puppies and kittens who are still learning routines and very attentive with senior pets who may need extra support, calm environments, or special care. I always keep owners updated so they know their pet is safe, comfortable, and happy. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule. I’m typically free after 3 PM on weekdays, available on weekends, and often have breaks between classes that allow me to do drop-ins or walks. I’m happy to work with your schedule and help care for your pets when you need it! I follow your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and stress-free in their own home. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and care while keeping their environment calm and familiar.

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: A medium dog mommy almost my whole life. If your dog ain't happy, you're not happy, so I will deliver hugs and pets when you want to but can't. I am fit and can take brisk walks, heat not withstanding. I am conscientious, timely, and will work hard to over deliver on your expectations! We have a dog, cat, and ball python. Walks and check-ins are just the start. Need to coordinate something extra once we know each other? Just ask. Looking forward to meeting you and your bff! I enjoy meeting new people and pets and helping both out. I'll treat your animals just as they are my very own, so you'll have no worries while you're away. Your instructions will be reviewed prior to departure and what is agreed upon will be followed to the letter. I want everyone to be comfortable with their own routine and environments.
