House Sitting in Groover Landing

“Melissa is a dream, she so clearly loves animals and was so patient with my grumpy old girl. I can’t wait to utilize her again, and would recommend her any day”

“I literally can’t say enough about Heather. I had to go to CA for a doctor’s appt and had to be gone for a week and right before I left, my dog became really sick and needed IV for 3 days. Heather didn’t hesitate. She went above and beyond and took Maggie to the vet to make sure she got exactly the care that she needed. I wouldn’t have left my dog period, but I had that much faith in Heather and the doctor’s appt was beyond a need for me.”

“Kylee was so incredible!!! She watched 4 dogs for a whole week and took such good care of them. She was super responsive and gave me updates! It also was super rainy the last few days and with 4 dogs and our yard is super muddy/ floors not good with mud and dog fur, we fully expected to walk into a filthy house but to our surprise the house was spotless. She went above and beyond to make the house look amazing even in the rain! We really appreciate it and will be absolutely be using her again in the future for any needs we have!”

About: I’ve cared for pets for friends, family, and others, including feeding, walks, playtime, and overnight care. I’m used to following specific instructions and keeping pets on their normal routine. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, small birds, and bunnies. I’m comfortable with different temperaments and always aim to create a calm, safe environment for every pet. I’m open to taking bookings off of Rover if you want to avoid any fees and make booking easier! :) I’m a full time pet sitter who offers more than just overnight stays. I am available for early morning or late-night care as well. I’m open to last minute bookings as long as my schedule allows! :) I love caring for your pets as if they were my own. I am comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and medications if needed! I love to make sure your pet is still on there normal routine if they have one, so always let me know any specific instructions.

About: I grew up with all sizes of dogs my entire life. When I was 8, I begged my mom for a cat. She finally caved when I was 10 and the rest is history. I work weekdays 9a-6p and Saturdays 8:30a-1:30p. I'm available in the mornings and after 6p. As long as I'm given notice, I am available to visit your pets twice a day. I have a fenced in yard where my dad's two Australian shepherds love to visit when they come over. Plenty of room to run around and have fun!

“Alonnie is amazing! Finley was totally bonded with her within 24 hours even though he can be reserved around new people. She gave regular updates and was great throughout the visit. Will definitely hire her again!”

“Very satisfied, Chris was great with the dogs, and things were done as instructed. I would highly recommend him.”

About: I have over 30 years of hands-on experience owning and caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. Over the years, I have cared for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, gaining a strong understanding of daily routines, exercise needs, and gentle senior care. My experience includes walking & jogging, feeding, administering medications, and providing calm, attentive care. I am comfortable managing multiple pets in the same household and always prioritize safety, consistency, and affection. Dogs have been a part of my family for decades, and I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. Now that I am retired, pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I'm full-time which allows me to plan days around the pets in my care rather than fitting them in around work or other obligations. Walks, feedings, playtime, and companionship are spread throughout the day, so pets get consistent attention and aren't left alone for long periods. My schedule is flexible, so I can easily accommodate medications, special feeding times, and multiple pets. I enjoy the structure that caring for pets brings to my day, and I make it a priority to follow each pet's normal routine, so they feel comfortable, safe and relaxed. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, secure and loving environment where pets are closely supervised and never left unattended for long periods. Since I'm retired and home most of the time, I'm able to give pets consistent attention and quickly notice any changes in behavior or health. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, walking routines, and any special needs. I use leashes and safety precautions on walks and make sure doors, gates and living areas are secure at all times. I treat every pet and home with respect, keeping the space clean, organized, and stress-free. My goal is to create a safe, familiar environment where pets feel relaxed and owners feel confident, they have left their pets in trustworthy hands.

“Amy is fantastic! She watched our cat, Black Fury, for a week and did an incredible job. She’s a “cat whisperer” who managed to win over our shy boy, and her daily photos/updates, kept us smiling. She also went above and beyond by keeping the house tidy, taking out the trash and bringing in our deliveries. Coming home to a clean house and a happy cat was the perfect end to our trip. Highly recommend!”

About: I've taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was 10 years old. I have a Maltese, a Jack Russell, and a Pit Bull. All three of them are seniors, and I make sure they are comfortable and adjusting to aging. I am also well-versed in puppy care and have taken care of dogs of all ages, kept them entertained, and made sure they were happy. I am currently an online English tutor, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your babies. My weeks are structured, but I have flexibility. I make sure my pets are safely secured on their leashes before every walk. That they have what they need: water, treats, and doggie bags for cleanup. Making sure there are no electrical cords or anything else they could chew on. Double-checking they have food and water and are comfortable.

About: With over 6 years of pet sitting experience and 15+ years caring for my own animals, I treat every pet like family. I’m dedicated to providing personalized care, your way, ensuring your pet feels loved and safe while in my care! My open weekly schedule is a little bit tricky due to me working full-time about 20 minutes away. My availability on those days would only be to the pets who don’t need to be let out side for about an eight hour period until I got home. Otherwise, my weekend schedule is fully open and I can be home all day to let any pets outside that I would need to. In my home, pets enjoy plenty of attention, playtime, and walks—with help from my two kids (ages 9 and 11) to keep them company. Pets are welcome on my furniture! In your home, I’ll follow your routine closely and tailor care to your pet’s needs in any way you request.

“Tim is awesome! I’ve used many sitters through Rover and Tim is the best! This is the 2nd time he has watched my 4 dogs and chickens at my house. He feeds them and spends a great deal of time with them. He also goes above and beyond by sweeping my floors and washing the bedding in my guest bedroom he slept in. It’s nice going on vacation and not having to worry. It’s also great coming home from vacation to happy dogs and a clean house.”

“Samantha definitely went above and beyond to care for our dogs over the weekend. We never had to worry how they were doing or if they were being taken care of. She was so accommodating. We will definitely ask her to pet sit again!”

Christopher W.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Margo and Hucks were so loved and well cared for, and we had total peace of mind while we were away. Thank you so much Kitty!”

About: I have had and been around animals my entire life. I have personally trained my own pets and have pet sat for multiple owners. I have a strong belief that animals do best in their own home environment to help eliminate undue stress. I have a strong passion for animals and enjoy spending time with them. Taking walks and playing with them is as beneficial to them as it is to me. As I prefer to keep animals in their own environment, I like to get instructions from the pet owner on their usual routine. Clear instructions and emergency contacts help me in providing the best care.

“Emily did an amazing job with our animals! She gave us daily updates with pictures, made sure our dogs got plenty of exercise, and kept everything clean and tidy in our house! Will forsure be using her again!”

“Izzy was great with our babies!”

About: I’ve (Harlei) been house and pet sitting for several years now. I truly enjoy the opportunity to care for animals in their own space that they are comfortable in. Jackson is a property manager and animal lover like myself so we both know the value of having your home taken care of while you’re away. We just finished a 6 month trip around the UK and used pet sitting opportunities to get around and explore the whole country! We have cared for a range of animals from dogs to cats to reptiles. Some being elderly and needing multiple medications and some being on the more reactive side when it comes to walks, so we’ve got it all down! Mostly, we know the importance of keeping your furry friend in their own space and routine. Some of the screenshot reviews are from that trip and the owners of the pets we looked after through another sitting platform:) We currently work remotely which allows us to bounce around as we please and stay home with your pets. In addition to getting to bond with all kinds of loving animals, we value the fact that it allows us to visit places we’ve never been. You can rest easy while you’re away knowing that we’ll be home with your pets most of the day and they’ll be getting lots of attention! We believe the most important thing to keep pets happy and comfortable while you’re away is to keep them in the routine they’ve grown used to. Their walking schedule and even route that they love, playtime, snuggles, meals, and medications-it should all be just as they know and we will take care of it all 🤗

“Joshua did a great job with my 2 dogs, and 11 month old Dalmation puppy, and a 7 year old Hungarian Pumi. He went above and beyond when I did not arrive home when I told him I would be there...( flight delays) Joshua stayed until 1:30 am to make sure the dogs would be OK . The dogs really seemed to enjoy him and were sorry to see him go! I can highly recommend him!”

About: Even as a kid I was taking care and spending time with my elderly dog Rusty, so dog care comes naturally to me. I will always stay with your pet and make sure they are always happy, fed, and full of love! I'm currently working between 25-40 hours but my relationship with my employer is amazing, I can request a schedule change or even take days off for when you need me I will always be attentive and aware to your pets needs and ensure they will never feel neglected and are given the love and care they more than deserve!
