Pet Sitting in Geer

“Morgan was excellent taking time to get to know Starbuck, a nine-year old Border Collie that's very sweet and quite sensitive, and make him feel comfortable. He was very happy to see her when she arrived. She listened carefully to all instructions and implemented them on the first booking after our meet and greet. We don't need pet care very often because we have family nearby, but Morgan will be our go-to sitter when ever we do! We recommend her very highly.”

“Megan was lovely, she did great with the cats making sure Artie and Riasin had lots of attention and playtime. Artie is currently taking medicine and she made sure to get it to Artie when needed. Thank you Megan!”

About: Animals are my true heart and passion. I've had dogs my entire life, from min pins to mastiffs. There's no animal I won't truly love. I currently volunteer at a few local places and am not employed. I have a passion for all animals and a love of helping others. My animals are my children and are treated as such. Their safety and comfort comes before my own. I will treat your home and furry babies with love and respect.

“Tiziana did great with my cats! Awesome communication and care. She was fantastic at giving my elderly cat meds twice a day and being patient with my somewhat skidish cat. Highly recommend!”

“Mackenzie was great! She sent us report cards with descriptions and pictures of our dog everyday when letting him out for potty breaks for four days in a row. We would definitely recommend her and use her again!”

About: I've been taking care of dogs and cats for friends and neighbors for around three years now. My family has two cats and two dogs that I've helped care for and train since they were young. I also have experience with older animals and their needs since one of my dogs and one of my cats are twelve. I currently don't have any other summer employment, so my schedule is open. I am available mornings, afternoons and late evenings every day of the week and weekends, just not for overnight care. I can stop by throughout the day to feed, play with, and let out animals. I can also do short or long walks with dogs or even cats!

About: Hi! For many years, I was a Fear Free Certified veterinary assistant in Charlottesville, VA. I also have experience as a dog kennel manager, farm assistant & animal rescue volunteer/advocate. During my 10 years of petsitting work, i’ve learned how to make your pets as stress free as possible while your away. Petsitting is my full time job! It is easy for both myself & my clients to have such flexibility. I schedule my days off based off of my client’s bookings. I have studied animal medicine & behavior for. I am a Fear Free certified veterinary assistant. While sitting in your home, I stick to your pets’ schedule but am also happy to take your pets on additional fun activities when requested.

“Brittany was AWESOME! I was so anxious leaving my dogs as I usually don’t do drop-in service but she really set my mind at ease. She was so kind and my dogs loved her and all the walks & trips to the dog park. She even kept my destructive/playful corgi from tearing apart his beloved tennis balls ? I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you!!!”

“Tabitha was able to come last minute to walk and feed our dogs and was perfect! We will be using her again!”

About: I have had dogs and cats all my life. I grew up on a farm and have always loved animals. My girls Piper, Ella and Shelby are my world. I love these dogs like they are children. They are spoiled I will admit. I also have taken care of my friends dogs for years while they have been out of town and my house as "Aunt Paige's Doggie Camp" All my dogs I have brought up from puppies. I have house trained them, crate trained them and trained them on the invisible fence for the yard. They always get lots of love and have lots of toys to play with, both inside and outside. I work from home, so I'm always here to take them out and take care of them. My dogs are always outside when it's not too hot or the weather is bad. I live on a quite street which ends in a cul-da-sak. So I will walk them at least 2 times a day The most important thing is they must get along with other dogs. I have a invisible fence in my yard and can certainly put your dog on it if they are trained on one. Otherwise I will go out with them and walk them. If they are well trained and can be lose a return on command they can play in the yard with my girls.

“MacKenzie enjoys her job! Followed directions well. She sent pictures and videos each day. Would recommend her and I plan to hire her again!”

SUSAN H.

“Najia was extremely conscientious and took great care of my pets! I especially recommend her if you need someone who has experience with birds, rabbits, or guinea pigs.”

About: I have cared for dogs my whole life. My family has 3 dogs, and for 3 years we fostered special needs dogs from the animal shelter: litters of puppies, sick dogs, pregnant dogs, and dogs with special medical needs. I volunteered as a dog walker at our animal shelter. I worked for a year at a dog boarding facility handling all aspects of dog care: feeding, medication, walks and play, cleaning. I attended puppy socialization and training classes with my own dogs. I am a college sophomore available for summer, weekend and holiday pet sitting in and near Greene County. I can be with your pets overnight from dinner time to after breakfast. I have a flexible part-time daytime job, so can return for daytime potty and visits as needed. I start by understanding your pets daily routine, medical and care needs, and your expectations. I will make a visit to introduce myself before your trip. While you are away, I will send regular updates and ask any questions.

About: Though I'm new to Rover, I've been pet-sitting for neighbors and friends for 10+ years! I've taken care of dogs, cats, llamas, goats, and more. I've lived my whole life with dogs and cats of all ages, so I'm familiar with puppy/kitten and senior care. I know how to give medications including oral, topical, and injectable. I love animals and I promise to give your pets the same love and compassionate care I give my own! I'm currently working part time, so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I may be able to accommodate some last-minute requests, especially for drop-ins or dog walking. I live in Greene County, but I commute to Harrisonburg when I'm working so I can potentially take bookings around that area as well. PLEASE NOTE: I cannot hold dates for a pending request indefinitely. If your intention is to book with me, please confirm the booking as soon as you can so I can update my availability accordingly both on Rover and with my other job. Prompt communication is greatly appreciated! I believe it's most ideal for your pet if they can stay in their home environment and keep to their usual routine while you're away. If your dog likes to visit a certain tree on all their walks, or your cat gets a treat at a specific time each day, let me know! Please also share any quirks, anxieties, medical problems, or anything else special about your pet so I can cater to their individual needs.

“You’re amazing! I’m a little jealous thought... I think they like you better! ? Thank you for taking such great care of them and going out of your way to keep them clean and safe. I was totally at piece once I saw the first pics.”

About: I’ve taken care of many different size pets. Usually different dog breeds, everything from a yorkie to a bull mastiff. Older dogs 10 years plus and even puppies for a bit of time. Usually I provide weekend services unless they are allowed to be in a crate for an extended period of time. I prefer not to keep them in a crate. Usually I will drop my pet off at my parents house so it makes it easier to focus and stay on top of each pets needs.
