Pet Sitting Hawthorne

About: Hi! I’m a former paramedic who is currently working helping my family run our small business. I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and cats and caring for animals (and people) has always been a part of who I am. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to senior dogs, and I’m able to provide care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable working with cats and dogs that may be shy, fearful, reactive, or considered less than friendly. I understand the importance of patience, reading body language, and creating a calm, safe environment so pets feel comfortable and secure. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking companion, gentle care, medication support, or simply someone they can trust while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same attention and compassion that I give my own. I’m currently working with my family which allows me to have an extremely flexible and open schedule. Generally available from 8:30a.m-11p.m 7 days a week Long walks and backyard or park playtime. I am comfortable caring for pets with special medical and physical needs. I can provide basic grooming if needed for pets that will allow.

About: I’ve personally owned dogs, cats, exotic reptiles, birds, and small mammals, with experience caring for pets ranging from kittens to elderly dogs. I love my dog and cats like they’re my own children, and they mean the world to me. My love for animals led me to volunteer at an exotic animal rescue and work professionally as a Lab Manager, caring for a wide variety of animals. I’ll treat your pets with the same care, patience, and love I give my own. I am compassionate, attentive, and committed to making every pet feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m hoping to fill my late mornings, afternoons, and early evenings with caring for pets and helping families with whatever pet-care services they may need. I would prefer the pet / animal to be as comfortable as possible with little to no stress. So familiar environments for them is an important factor to consider.

“We are so glad we found Omi! She was absolutely amazing. This was the first time in a long time that we were able to go on vacation and truly not worry about our dogs. She sent us pictures, played with them, kept them happy, and gave us regular updates so we always knew they were doing well. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were being cared for by someone who genuinely cared about them. We will absolutely be using Omi again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pets!”

About: I’ve always been a dog lover ever since I was a little girl. I look forward to getting to know your fur baby and ❤️ them as if they were my own. I truly enjoy each and every animal I’ve ever come across. I truly believe, Dogs are man’s best friend. Thank you for giving me the chance to watch over your baby while you’re gone. Currently, I’m a stay at home mom of a little one year-old and I have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! I can do drop ins and daily walks the morning between 8-12 and in the afternoons 4-7pm. I will play, walk, and tenderly love and care for your fur baby while you are gone. They will always have a friend in me.

“Thank you for being amazing with our Ghia girl!!”

About: I've been caring for pets since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, groom, and bathe their pets. I’ve worked in a doggy daycare for 8 years and have extensive experience with grooming, pet sitting, and managing a variety of temperaments and breeds. I treat every animal as if they were my own and prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, calm companionship, or basic grooming, I'm here to help! I own my own dog grooming business, which means I spend my days surrounded by pups! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I have the flexibility to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention throughout the day. Whether your dog needs midday care, companionship, or just some extra love, I’m here to help! For boarding in my home, I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and get fresh air. I also have a spare room set up just for pups, giving them a comfortable, quiet space to relax when they’re not enjoying playtime inside the house. I have experience handling multiple dogs at once and make sure every pup gets individual attention, enrichment, and care in a calm, structured environment. When walking dogs in a client’s neighborhood, I always use a double leash system one with the pet's own leash and another with mine to ensure extra safety and prevent any chances of slipping out. I'm also comfortable administering oral medications or topical treatments if needed. Your dog’s well being, comfort, and safety are always my top priorities.

About: I’ve been raised around dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for them in every stage — from playful puppies to seniors who need a little extra patience and attention. Having supported my own dogs through their later years, I understand how important gentle, attentive care is. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work Monday through Friday from 5:30 AM to 2:30 PM, which means I’m available for early morning visits before work and have my full afternoons and evenings open for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. Because I’m off mid-afternoon, your pet won’t be waiting all day for attention. I’m able to give them consistent, reliable care and quality time — whether that’s a calm check-in, an energetic walk, or simply extra cuddles to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I will always care for your pet the way you feel most comfortable, especially in your own home. I carefully follow any instructions you leave — from feeding routines and medications to favorite toys and bedtime habits — because I know how important consistency is for their comfort and your peace of mind. If they stay in my home, they’ll be welcomed into a calm, loving environment alongside my two pets. They’ll have access to a fully fenced backyard where they can safely explore and enjoy fresh air. I’m able to separate from my cat if needed to ensure everyone feels secure and comfortable. While I’m not able to separate from my dog, he is well-socialized and used to being around other animals. My goal is always to create a safe, warm space where your pet feels cared for, understood, and at home.

About: Hi! My name is Rebeca. I am 27 years old with a lifelong passion and love for animals. I have been caring for animals since I was younger. It’s been a dream of mine to work with animals and I’m glad this app gives me the opportunity to do so. I have two pets of my own here at home, one being a boxer/ pit mix and the other being a shih tzu/ pom mix. Due to my experience with my own pets, I am very comfortable caring for your pet no matter the size or breed. I promise to care for your pets as if they were my own with lots of love and care. Although I do not have a fenced yard there is a little dog park walking distance from where I live which is where I spend most of my free time with my fur babies. I hope after reading a little bit about me you feel comfortable enough with giving me the opportunity to take care of your pet. Thank you! By the way I do normally post photos of the pups I look after on rover so I can share the happy faces of the pups I’ve watch before but only with your permission of course ☺️ All days are available! I’m currently unemployed and looking to lean into pet care more as I do online school to pursue my dreams! I care for others pets as if they were my own with lots of love! I make sure I follow their diets provided by their owners and that they’re constantly walked throughout my service.

“Rachel was fantastic! She took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated with photos. It's clear that she is an animal lover; she took her time and never rushed. I didn't have to worry about anything while I was away. My dog was happy and well cared for, and I will definitely be using her services again!”

Because I operate my pet care business from home, my daily schedule is fully centered around the pets in my care. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, structured routines, and timely attention throughout the day. Pets are never left unattended for extended periods. My schedule is built around feeding times, potty breaks, playtime, medication routines, and rest periods to ensure each pet receives reliable, attentive care in a calm and stable environment. Safety and structure are a top priority in my home. My property is fully fenced with additional enclosed outdoor areas designed for safe, controlled activity suited to different sizes, ages, and temperaments. Pets are always supervised in a calm, structured environment where their safety and comfort come first. This includes active oversight throughout the day to ensure each pet is secure, accounted for, and emotionally at ease. For the safety of all animals in my care, I do not accept reactive or aggressive dogs. Each pet is carefully screened through a meet-and-greet to ensure compatibility and a safe, balanced environment. My own pets are professionally trained and well-socialized, contributing to a stable and peaceful home atmosphere.

About: If you want to get away for that well deserved vacation or just a 3 day weekend and feel secure in knowing that your fur babies are being lovingly cared for, then I’m just who you’re looking for! I have loved dogs (and most animals) my whole life. I think of them as a family member, not as a pet. I will remain calm around your loved one as not to cause any anxiety. Even though I don’t have a dog at this time, I have had many dogs throughout my life. I can hardly remember a time that I didn’t have one. My best friend (a Boxer named CC) had quite a few medical problems from 2010 through 2015 and I had to give her an average of 17 pills a day. (Sometimes less). So I’m pretty experienced as far as that goes. My schedule is very flexible and I am very reliable. I am flexible about allowing your pet on furniture. If that’s not allowed I will follow your wishes 100%.

About: Most people know me as “B.J.” Short for Betty Jean. I love animals. I have had dogs & cats all my life. I have a rescue lab mix & who is my world. Also our feral rescue kitty. Only the best for them. I will take care of your fur baby as if they are my own. I am currently working an office job Monday-Friday but getting ready to retire from a 29 year career. I can do drop-ins & walks on the weekends for now. Starting next year I can do this full time. I’m so excited! I will follow the individual instructions you give me to take care of your pet. I will treat them with all the love & snuggles they want. I can do walks & drop in visits.
