House Sitting in Gold Hill

About: I have worked many years in animal rescue and rehabilitation, I can work with the newest puppy members or the senior fur baby. I can keep them on your schedule or keep it relaxed whatever you need. I can continue with leash, house/potty, crate, or any other trainings. I've worked with multiple animals breeds and personalities, all would be loved and cared for. I work from home so my schedule is pretty open. I'm near many walking trails to stretch our legs or many cozy places for the fur babies to cuddle up and take a nap. I have many toys and space for play, I can accommodate crates or other needed accessories to help your fur baby and create that home away from home feeling. I have oncle cat that has been raised around cats, dogs, children, and other small animals, he's friendly with everyone. I can do overnights or drop ins for those unexpected life moments. I'm near many parks and trails so your fur baby would get the exercise they need.

About: I’ve always been around animals and naturally treat pets like family. I’m patient, attentive, and good at reading animal behavior, especially with nervous, energetic, or stubborn pets lol. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I try to keep them comfortable, safe, and stress-free while their owners are away. I’m dependable with feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, cleanup, and giving pets attention instead of just “checking in and leaving.” I also know how important communication is, so I make sure owners stay updated with messages and pictures. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m used to being active throughout the day and handling responsibilities that require consistency and attention. I can work around feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medication reminders, and playtime. I understand pets need stability and patience, especially when their owners are away, so I make sure they get attention, exercise, and care instead of just being left alone. I also try to stay flexible for last-minute needs when possible. Cats have their own quiet, separate space where they can feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed without needing to interact with dogs unless they’re comfortable doing so. I understand cats usually do best with calm environments, patience, and giving them space to adjust at their own pace. 🐱

About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I am experienced in administering medications if needed and any other needs your pet may have. I work full time during the week so I am only available on the weekends. I am more than happy to come anytime of the day on the weekends! I enjoy getting to know other animals so I tend to either play with them or if they seem like they’re happy just sitting and hanging out I’m happy with that to!

“Jessica did a wonderful job with our pups! She kept us updated and informed. Not to mention she spoiled our bully rotten.I would highly recommend her if you want your pets cared for to help you have a stress free time away from home.”

About: With over a decade of experience in animal husbandry, I care for pets of all ages and species. I’ve provided reliable pet sitting through college and now as a biology professor, handling everything from daily routines to medications and special needs. My goal is to keep your pets comfortable, happy, and cared for just as if you were home. Flexible for mornings, nights, and extended stays. I teach from morning to midday on weekdays. I usually wake up early to spend time with client’s pets or my own and have plenty of time to work in enrichment time and meals in the evening. It’s very important to me to provide a sense of normalcy to your pet. I may start out as a stranger but your pet and I will soon become best buds. I keep a strict schedule for check ins and they very quickly pick up that I’m keeping with the program and this eliminates a lot of their stress. I prefer to stay in your home and stick to your walk schedule (unless you’d like a field trip to a walking trail) so that the only change they have to deal with is missing you!

About: I’ve had pets all my life and am very good with anything. I’ve had cats, dogs, reptiles, rabbits, guinea pigs. And I’ll ages as well I only work at night from 10-6 two days a week. I’m free most days and weekends. So I’m available to take care of any pets I have a big yard for them to play in and an plenty of space indoors for them to play in or sleep in the room

“We are so glad we found Eden on Rover.com! If you need a sitter, this is HER! She stayed at our home with our babies while we were on vacation. They were very well taken care of and she sent us pictures/videos each day we were gone! She also left the house even better than she found it. Thank you again Eden!”

About: I’ve worked with all kinds of animals from playful puppies and shy rescues to senior pets who need extra care and patience. I started out volunteering at animal shelters, then gained hands-on experience as a vet assistant and kennel tech, where I helped with feeding, meds, and basic care for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve also helped on my uncle’s farm, caring for everything from livestock to barn cats. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for many families and treat every animal like they’re my own safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently in college and part of a sorority, but I still have plenty of time for pet care throughout the week. My class schedule is flexible, and I plan ahead to make sure every pet gets the attention they need. I’m available most mornings, evenings, and weekends, and I always make time for walks, playtime, and check-ins. Pet care is something I love, so I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, their safety and comfort always come first. I make sure their space is clean, secure, and calm. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications, and preferred walking routes. I take time to build trust with each pet so they feel relaxed and cared for. I also send regular updates and photos to keep you in the loop and give you peace of mind while you’re away.

“Garrison was amazing! Our dog got hurt before we left and he was so caring and patient with her. He played so much with our cat that I think he will find us boring now that we’re home. He kept the house so clean and updated us so much. I will definitely use him in the future and so should YOU!”

“Lindsey was great! Our dogs took up with her immediately and they definitely do not do that with just anyone. Lindsey also gave our dog his meds as needed since he was recovering from surgery. Will def use her again if needed.”

About: My experience with dogs includes both puppies and seniors. I've worked with all ages in both my own home with my own pups, and while pet-sitting. And while I can't lead training with puppies, I can continue ongoing training while they're in my care. I'm working an internship from home right now, so all I need is my laptop and WIFI. This means I am available any day of the week, pretty much any time. I can only render services at client's homes right now because of the rules of my apartment complex, but that tends to be less stressful for the pet anyway. I can care for pets however is needed, as keeping with the normal routine will ease the stress of their parents being away. I will feed them, play with them, make sure they have clean water, and can let them out or walk them, and of course give them as much love and affection as they want!!

“Crissy is a knowledgeable and professional dog sitter. She was able to easily navigate our different dynamics, having a newly adopted dog who is still getting used to her new home & also an energetic fun-loving hound who can be a lot to handle. Crissy came and handled them with ease. Even took them on walks and sent plenty of pictures and updates. We are so glad we found her!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. Growing up with pets taught me how to handle all kinds of breeds, personalities, and needs from feeding and walking to bath time and snuggles. Friends, neighbors, and family have always trusted me to love on their fur babies like they were my own. Whether it’s playful pups or older pets who need extra patience, I show up with love, reliability, and experience. I work full-time, but I’m still available for evening walks, drop ins, and weekend care. My schedule stays consistent, and I always make time to give your pet the attention and care they need. Whether it’s playtime after work or overnight boarding on weekends, I’ve got you cover I don’t have a fenced yard, but I live near a big open field and have a dog park right in my complex plenty of space for safe outdoor play. I’m mindful, attentive, and follow your pet’s routine closely. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness always come first.

“Rachelle was on time and communicated with us which we appreciate. She sent lots of pictures and updates. We will definitely use her again!”

About: I can’t remember the last time I wasn’t around a pet! I’ve been taking care of animals of all sizes ever since our family Rottweiler back in the 2000s. From energetic Dobermans to loyal shepherds (yes, I’ve got those too!), I have a natural bond with dogs of all breeds. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just keeping them company, I love making sure pets feel safe, loved, and right at home. With me, your furry family member will be treated like one of my own! I also love training them too! I am currently enrolled in a self paced online school course so I have plenty of time and flexible dates to accommodate your furry family member! I truly enjoy long walks and caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, I even have a Doberman myself, so I’m very comfortable with large, energetic pups as well as smaller, more delicate ones. 😊 I always listen carefully to the owner’s preferences and routines to make sure your dog feels safe and at home, even when you’re away. I’m happy to follow any specific care instructions you provide, and if I notice anything that could enhance your pet’s comfort or well being, I’d be happy to share suggestions. You can trust that your dog will receive plenty of love, exercise, and attention and your home will be respected as if it were my own. I’m here to make things as smooth and stress free as possible for both you and your furry family member. I listen to the owners suggestions for care in their home. If there are ideas or care taking steps I can add in, I will definitely propose that as well.
