House Sitting Goldmine

“Deanna was wonderful with Hero & all of his care needs while we were away. She took great care of Hero & our home. It was a big comfort to know that our fur baby was so comfortable. Deanna is such a reliable, attentive and very loving petsitter whom I highly recommend.”

About: I have been in-house pet sitting for 8 years now. What started as a college side gig has now turned into my side job business. After years of getting referrals by word of mouth, I recently, in 2026, decided to go public with my business! So that brings me to Rover! 🐾 I believe pet care is about more than just a task of feeding, potty breaks, and walks. I have always had a deep love for animals and making sure they feel LOVED. When you choose me as your sitter, your pets become my bonus-furbabies, and I love them as if they were my own! I learn your pet's routine, personality, and preferences so they receive love and care that is tailored to them. A lot of my clients are repeat clients, and I love getting to know each pet's unique personality. As the owner of Paws & Relax Pet Staycation, I value building lasting relationships with both pets and their owners. I know how important communication is, so I'll keep you updated with photos and messages, giving you peace of mind while you're away. My goal is simple: for your pets to feel cared for and comfortable in their home, and for you to return home knowing that they were treated like family. I currently work full-time near Grelot Rd. and University Blvd. When you hire me as your in-home pet sitter, my goal is to spend as much time as possible at your home with your pets, seamlessly blending their care with my workday schedule. I also provide overnight stays to ensure your pets have companionship throughout the night, keeping their usual routine completely intact and stress-free! If your home is within 15 to 20 min from my workplace, a midday visit is available for a potty break for your pets. I only provide pet sitting inside the client's home, as I believe pets do best in their own familiar surroundings. I always schedule a Meet & Greet at least two weeks before your trip so I can meet your pets with you there—that way, I’m a friend walking through the door on day one, not a stranger. While I'm visiting, we’ll fill out a personalized care sheet together. We'll map out everything from feeding schedules and medications to their favorite games, daily habits, and emergency info, ensuring they get the exact care they're used to.

About: I’ve always been around animals and grew up caring for multiple dogs. I currently have cats of my own and have experience caring for a variety of exotic animals as well. I have previously worked in animal husbandry, which has given me hands on experience with animal care, feeding, cleaning, monitoring and understanding different animals’ individual needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable and well cared for. I am currently a Researcher at the University of South Alabama, but I have a a flexible schedule and plenty of free time on the weekends. I am happy to adhere to any requirements you have regarding your pets. I can easily crate, walk, and play with dogs and well as care for cats and exotic animals.

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life, ranging from small medium and large, including senior dogs, walking, feeding, and generally taking care of pets. I have also cat-sit for friends and family changing littler boxes, and feeding cats. Waking, feeding, and generally taking care of pets I am currently in an online certification coarse and looking for part time employment, so I have plenty of time to look after and play with your pets. Please give me a weeks notice beforehand if you require any of my services so I can accordingly plan and block it into my schedule. I am very affectionate, patient, but firm with pets. But I understand that every animal is individual, and must be treated as such. I believe that consistent play time and structure is essential, and will maintain any structure that the pet/pet-owner requires, they are your pets after all.

“Sara took amazing care of our two dogs who have some medical needs. She was communicative, reliable, and sent wonderful pictures. Would definitely recommend!”

About: I have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember! I’ve grown up with big dogs for a while and was always relied on to take care of them when my parents went out of town or to take care of my friends/neighbors dogs when needed. I would play, feed, give medicine when needed, and bathe them. I’ve always been a dog person and I hope You can trust me to watch your babies!! I also am very experienced with cats and how to care for them as I have grown up with cats as a child. My schedule is pretty set for everyday and rarely changes so I can make sure my visits fit your schedule needed and mine so there is no conflict! My oldest dog cooper is currently on a lot of medicine. I have been responsible a lot of times to make sure he gets his medicine needed daily and to make sure it is right. I also feed my dogs everyday for my parents and a lot of times take them out on walks for them or make sure they go outside and play. I make sure they ever feel lonely and always give them all the attention and love they need!

“Raylin did an outstanding job caring for our pups while I was out of town. Jaxon & Maggie seemed happy & content when I returned home after 5 days. I would highly recommend Raylin!”

About: Iv owned a number of cats since I was a baby, I'm obsessed with cats, dogs and critters of all kinds. I have experience with all sorts of animals including birds, lizards, and snakes of all sizes. I value building loyalty and trust with my clients so I do my absolute very best with everyone I meet, no exceptions. I am a full time student so your pets can be cared for any time after 3pm. My 4 cats are very spoiled, their own room to hang out in with toys galore and their own food and water station, they won't be bored while your pet is in my care. I will make sure your animal is very happy and spoiled as if they were my own

“Jordan recently house sat for us and took care of our greyhound. She did a great job! Our poor dog had just broken her toe and was in a splint, so she required extra care and medication. We could not have asked for better care. She is highly recommended and we are looking forward to using her services again.”

“Elizabeth did a great job when she stayed at our house with our dog for the weekend. We came home to a very happy and healthy pup. Our dog even looked for Elizabeth in the room she was staying in the morning after we returned home. I recommend Elizabeth for caring for your beloved pets.”
