About: Hello! 🐾🦴 My name is Clare (she/her). I am an experienced dog trainer and care-giver, and I am excited to be available for house sitting as well all of your other pet-related needs. Feel free to reach out if you’re looking for some dog help! 🐶 I work at a school, so I have plenty of time during the summer to be with your pup (whether that means playing with them, helping with training, taking them to the park with my dog, or cuddling on the couch).🏡 I provide individualized and engaged care for dogs of all ages. I have experience house and dog sitting (not through Rover), and I make it a priority to respect your property and your furry friend.
“Poppy did a great job watching Roscoe and our house while we were away. Roscoe is a happy boy and our house is cleaner than we left it! 10/10 would have her watch him again and would absolutely recommend her for the job. Thanks again Poppy!”
“Amy is a delightful person who took excellent care of our aging dog. She stayed at our house, as Cooper needs medication three times per day and some guidance in getting around. She is meticulous and organized. She also just plain likes dogs. We definitely would like to have her back. Outstanding.”
“Skye, is wonderful!! Nothing short of a perfect experience from our point of view for our pup. All the other reviews were spot on. Great communicator, lots of happy pup photos and just really appreciated her taking care of things at home while we were away! Highly recommend!”
About: I have trained puppies to be mobility service dogs from when they were eight weeks old to two years old. I have also lived with dogs for the past 17 years. I am highly proficient in training basic skills (sit, down, stay, heel) and well-versed in positive reinforcement and praise-based training methods. I also have experience with exercising dogs both physically and through mental enrichment. I am currently working a Wednesday to Sunday schedule and am generally available after 5 pm on those days. I have much more daytime availability Mondays and Tuesdays. I am happy to find appropriate walks for your pets of all ages and abilities in the area. I will make sure to meet your pet's physical and mental needs and communicate clearly and effectively.
“Kim was awesome! It's not easy to find someone willing to take care of a diabetic cat, but she was willing to learn and did a great job taking care of our challenging fella. We needed someone to house sit and take care of our two cats while we were away and we feel like we were lucky to have found Kim. Hoping she will be able to help us out in the future. :)”
“Katie is a wonderful sitter, would highly recommend! We arrived home to happy pets and a thoughtfully cared for space. She did a great job making our pets feel comfortable with her. Her communication is friendly and prompt. Would definitely book again!”
About: I love pets!!! If there is any training you are working on with your pup, I will do my best to follow any guidelines given. I need to be taken on walks just as much as your dog does, so you can count on them getting exercise every day :) I love taking them outside to play! I’m home a lot, but I also love hiking and other various outdoor activities. Your dog will come home very happy! I have a fenced in yard and a doggy door. No pets or kids, no rat poison and an electric lid on the trashcan. I can crate them as long as you provide the crate, and if they’re well behaved I can leave them out at night/ if I leave the house.
“Couldn't have picked a better person to be our puppies pal for our 20 days away. We didn't have to worry at all! The pups were very happy and healthy when we got home. Kyle is clean and and very concientious individual and we already set up for our next jaunt with him. Thanks Kyle.”
“Angela was absolutely phenomenal with our two goldens. She was and continued to be very responsive from the beginning, regularly sending updates and report cards each day. She was great at accommodating and sticking to their daily routine. Not to mention that she took great care of our home as well.”

About: I’ve had experience with Irish wolfhounds, raising puppies, cats, and even birds. I love all animals and I genuinely enjoy being around them. I love winning them over as well as the ones with open hearts. I make my own schedule and would be available to take care of your animal at your convenience. I’m a punctual person and am good at keeping a routine. It depends on each pet and each owner but I make sure to follow all instructions and keep a playful attitude with any pets I care for.

Jade V.
“Jade is the most caring person I have ever seen with animals. She goes above and beyond not just with making sure they have food and water. She makes sure the bowls are cleaned before even filling them up. The amount of time spent making sure my two Italians mastiffs were taken care of was amazing. She made sure both of them had plenty of attention and playtime. I was always scared to leave my dogs with anyone but I found the right person. I don’t think you could find a better person to watch your animals. Thanks Jade!!!”

Tara is fantastic! She took such great care of our dog and cat while we were away for 10 days. We came home to two happy, well-loved pets and a clean, tidy home. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands, we would absolutely book with her again!
Another great house/dog sitting booking with Kim! My dog had some tummy issues and a paw hotspot on Kim's first day. She was super communicative and took care of my dog! He returned to his full self quickly and clearly loved the outdoor adventures Kim took him on.
Available on short notice. First time sitting my boy so he was nervous to be left with a stranger and worked himself up to vomiting (always at least a day 1 hunger strike to be expected from him). Mia informed me immediately and kept me updated, which I appreciate.
Ellen was a wonderful pet sitter for Miko. She met Miko a few times before our sit dates, so Miko could feel comfortable with her and Ellen could understand her special needs. Ellen left the house in pristine condition and took great care of Miko. All in all it was a great experience for everyone and Miko was a happy pup. Would highly recommend Ellen as she is kind, thoughtful and was attentive to all details and our needs.
