House Sitting in Headquarters

“Gloria took good care of my babies and my house. She even stayed longer than needed on the last day just to shorten the time they would have to be alone.”

Kristi G.

“Joyce was great. She took good care of our pets and our house. She communicated with us every day and sent us pictures of our fur babies. We will be having her as our house/pet sitter again for sure. Great experience and very happy we chose her and she accepted.”

Stacy B.

“Erin was awesome! My rather neurotic diva dog really took to Erin and her family. My baby girl did really well, because Erin took the time to get down on her level and give her lots of attention. I will be hiring Erin again for my next trip out of town.”

“Veronica took very good care of my two cats. I loved that she sent pictures of them every day. The litter boxes were clean and she kept the floor around them swept and clean. I will definitely continue to ask her to care for my babies.”

About: Hey there fury friends and owners! I'm Bailey and I love animals, I have car, dog, bird and farm animal experience. I would love to help youtake care of yours. I'm so looking forward to hearing from you soon. Thanks for stopping by my page. My availability currently is pretty open. I’m available part-time on a weekly service-perhaps every couple days if needed. It all depends on the location and services needed. I’m unsure how many pets I’m willing to take on at the moment. I can’t help but speak to an animal in high pitch tones as well as full on conversation with them like they’re answering me! Anything to get a head twist or a butt wiggle.

“Korin was tidy and communicated amazingly while we were away. Her dog played well with our big breed. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needed a house/dog sitter.”

“Kris did a wonderful job dogsitting my 2 corgis and was very respectful of my house. This was a last minute reservation and he was prompt in responding and scheduling a greet in time of the reservation. I would recommend him and will schedule again.”

About: I’ve lived with and cared for multiple dogs my whole life, so being around animals feels natural to me. I have a soft spot for dogs and genuinely enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m often found free Monday's - Fridays 6am -2pm Pet care would fit great into my weekly routine because I’m looking to be more active during the day spending time walking When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, comfort level, and routine. I have experience with anxious dogs, so I understand the importance of patience, comfort, and making them feel safe. I notice what pets like and dislike so I can care for them in a way that keeps them comfortable and happy. I’m very consistent with feeding schedules and always make sure pets get plenty of activity, playtime, attention, and affection throughout the day.

About: I can take care of cats, dogs, snakes and fish. I can do baths, I love playing and interacting with the pets, I can go on walks and jogs depending on the dogs preferences, I can feed snakes live or frozen feed. I can feed fish and do a possible water clean if needed Im currently a highschool student but I graduate in less than a month. Im available anyime after 3 on weekdays and available anytime on the weekend. I can do overnights on weekends aswell. But after June 7th I will be available anyday of the week. Im the main person to give my three dogs a bath. Im good at baths. I can do walks and playtime. I've had experience with cats and dogs all my life. I can also watch snakes and fish

“If You are looking for someone who knows and cares this is her. Kathryn not only understands canine behavior from a broad perspective she takes the time to make that one on one connection with your dog, I would rate Kathryn's services at 6 Stars on a 1-5 scale. She truly is above and beyond!”

“Kristin was amazing! She took such great care of my new puppy! She checked in with photos throughout the evening, and made sure I was kept up to date the whole night!”

About: Lifelong dog owner with hands-on experience caring for puppies, seniors, and high-energy dogs. I provide patient, loving, reliable care tailored to each pet’s personality and needs. I currently am working a very flexible job in Vancouver! I have open availability in the mornings, and evenings - and can even drop in mid day if needed! I also live in Kalama - so I am available for lots of locations due to my commute! I treat every pet like they’re my own and focus on creating a calm, stress-free environment. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize safety, routines, exercise, enrichment, and lots of one-on-one attention so pets feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I am the certified "Babysitter & Auntie" for all of my friends doggos - and it's become my favorite job! It has also showed me all the different ways dog's need cared for! I try to make sure I am fully aware of all the needs and what their daily routine is to ensure that we have the best time when together!

About: I am an experienced caregiver of pets. In my family is Otis the dog, cats Earl and Sarah, a Galah Cockatoo named Warren and Henry and Marty McFly the budgies. Otis gets along with both dogs and cats and loves to have a buddy to romp with in the yard. I have met some of the most wonderful caregivers here on Rover who helped when I’ve needed to go out of town and would love to help other pet parents when they need to be away for a time. I will provide photos and keep you updated for your peace of mind. I work part-time night shift. My schedule varies but I have lots of availability for feathered and furry friends. Please feel free to check with me about your pet care needs. I have a fenced yard and can provide supervised outdoor playtime or cuddling on the couch. Our dog Otis loves company and to have playmates visit. He gets along really well with other dogs and with cats.

About: I’ve owned animals since I was 10 and have cared for friends animals while they have been on travel. My animals are my family and are treated as such. I recently retired early and have time to spend at home with animals. Lots of land for exercise and all pets stay inside with me. I live on six acres with two dogs, two mini donkeys, a goat and a horse. The entire property is fenced with a barn and shelter for large animals.

About: I am AuDHD and a hyper focus of mine since I was little has been dogs. I love all animals, but I have a special bond with dogs. I would read every book about dogs that I could get my hands on from breed standards to training guides to novels that had had characters that were dogs. I have been a dog sitter/walker since I was 10. I was the caretaker of my parent's pack of 8 dogs (3 Dachshunds, 3 Great Dane/English Mastiff/Brazilian Mastiff mixes, 1 Great Dane/English Mastiff Mix, and 1 English Mastiff/Brazilian Mastiff mix) for 2.5 years while they traveled the country politicking for the American Legion. I was also their house sitter, dog walker, & trainer for 10+ years prior for their previous pack of 1 Dachshund, 1 Australian Shepherd/Black Lab mix, and 1 Chow Chow/Lab/Husky/Malamute/etc. mix. I was also a dogwalker and trainer for a Neapolitan Mastiff during my teen years. As a foster child I lived in a home for 6 months that had 13 chihuahuas (and growing) and on the farm I lived on for a few months as a kid I got to work with a border collie/Australian cattle dog named Skagit. I have a lot of experience with feeding, walking, bathing, and some training dogs of all sizes. The majority of the dogs I have worked with have had some sort of special needs such as reactivity, aggression, and/or anxiety so I am comfortable working with dogs that are a little "extra". I have limited experience with caged animals (birds, ferrets, hamsters, rats, chinchillas, etc) but am always willing to learn. I have 6 months experience as a farm hand as a kid (chucking bails from a moving truck for the cows, feeding chickens, saddling, training, and feeding horses, etc.) and am fine with getting dirty. I am comfortable handling medical situations such as changing bandages, giving medicine, using a sling to assist them with mobility, etc. I have been known to get down on the floor with an animal and handfeed each kibble bit one by one until they decide they are done just to ensure they actually eat something. One client's dog would only eat if I loudly praised them and cheered them on with every bite they took. Animals have quirks and I am more than happy to do what is necessary, no matter how silly, to ensure they are well cared for. I currently have one recurring daily client whom I have been working with for almost a year now and have another recurring client starting on December 1st. There are also two other families that I sit for. If you are ok with my well behaved 3 year old being in a carrier on my back then my hours range from 8am to Midnight. Otherwise I am available Sunday from 12am-3pm & 8pm to Midnight, Monday from 12pm-6pm & 8pm to Midnight, Tuesday-Friday from 2pm-6pm and 8pm to Midnight, Saturdays from 12am to 11:59pm *subject to change based on appointments and school holidays. Never hesitate to ask because I can sometimes move things around to accommodate clients I am confident in handling dogs of all sizes, am amazing at following care instructions to a T, and only use positive training methods. I am comfortable with crating dogs. I have experience using several different types of restraints (harness, head collar, martingale collar, prong collar, etc.). I clean up any messes made by the animal prior to exiting the property. I have a firm, strong voice when giving commands but always adapt my demeanor to match the needs of the animal I am working with. In our home, the animals are allowed on the couch and the cheese tax never goes unpaid

“Excellent.”

“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with our sitter and couldn’t recommend her more highly! From the very beginning, her communication was outstanding. She kept us updated every single day with messages, pictures, and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from the updates that our animals were not only well cared for, but genuinely happy and comfortable with her. Seeing our dog and cows relaxed and content made all the difference for us. She was attentive, reliable, and clearly takes great pride in the care she provides. Knowing that our pets were in such capable and caring hands allowed us to fully relax during our time away. We came home to happy, healthy animals and couldn’t be more grateful. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and thoughtful sitter!”

“Marie was amazing!!! I am such a helicopter fur mama but I was quickly assured they were in great hands. Thorough communication, lovely updates, and my pups + kitty were as happy as can be when I came home. Will definitely be reaching out again in the future! Thank you so much Marie! 🙌 Moose, Evie, & Mazzy miss you already! ☺️🐾”
