House Sitting in India Hook

About: Hi! I'm Christina. I'm married and have a dog, two cats, and an African Grey Parrot. I work remotely, I love to travel, and I love animals, so I'm happy to find a way to combine all three! I work remotely for a bank as a Technical Writer. When I'm not doing that, I love to read and travel. A few years ago, I did a solo cruise to Alaska, and it was probably one of the best trips of my life. Whale watching was something on my bucket list, and I was really excited that the stars aligned for the opportunity to do that on my birthday. My parents have lived on a farm for about 16 years now, so I have a lot of experience with farm life and caring for chickens, guineas, goats, fish, and livestock guardian dogs. Along with my experience owning dogs, cats, and parrots. If you think we would be a good fit, please feel free to reach out, and I'm happy to chat more! I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible which allows me the ability to work around your needs for pet sitting/walking. I'm happy to talk further about specific needs. I would follow instructions of the pet owner - supervised backyard play, on-leash walks, etc. I always provide updates at each check-in and include photos.

“Alona took great care of our pets. Communication was great and we returned to our house being even cleaner than when we left it. Definitely recommend her and would have her watch our pets again!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats all my life, recently I have fostered several puppies until they were old enough for adoption. I have experience with dogs of all size and am used to walking dogs that pull on the leash :) I have stayed in others homes over night and have had dogs in my home while their family was away! I am currently working part time and make the schedule for my company so I can typically work around any schedule, however scheduling a sitting a week prior is preferred. If I am working it is typically 3:00 pm - 9:00 pm. I have a large fenced in backyard and a 6 year old dog who is very friendly and has never had any issues with pups who have come to stay with us in the past! My neighborhood has plenty of walking trails that are shaded for days that are hot.

“Dai Yah, was prompt with her response when we urgently needed a last minute same-day booking request in order to go out to an activity and then dinner with family. Were extremely mindful and careful when looking over sitters profiles and this is the 4th time we have booked a house sitting request via Rover app and it was a pleasure to work with DaI Yah. If you’re interested in booking a sitter that has such a pleasant vibe like super chill and easy to follow care instructions for my little 5lb Shih-Poo then schedule with DaI Yah, we will be booking again many more times for DaI Yah, I already mentioned to her that were interested in a repeat sitter so Blaze has a pleasant experience each time we need house sitting care. Dai Yah, and I spoke with each other college and family and goals so it was a great having the brief conversation to try to build that sitter-pet parent connection.”

About: We’re two best friends eager to care for your babies! We are great with dogs and cats, but also have experience with exotic animals. Aaron worked as a full time animal caretaker at Pet Supplies Plus and worked closely with small animals, reptiles and fish. As for our own home, we have 7 babies that get our full attention daily. We have two pit mixes, four cats, and a ball python. Our daily routine is to feed, play, cuddle and engage as much as possible with our babies. We always make sure their needs are met and we promise to love and care for yours in the same way we do for our own furry/scaled children. In addition to our own pets, we enjoy taking care of and helping out family members and friends with their pet needs. We have cared for hyperactive puppies (and some adults that haven’t grown out of it lol), senior dogs that need a lot of patience and help with their physical activity and potty/bladder needs, and plenty of cats that we love to work with and ensure they receive patience with socialization. We have a fairly flexible and open schedule and love to organize a daily routine! Aaron is primarily available on the weekdays and Denny is available on the weekends. We are happy to send available times or be given times and work with you to ensure timely care for your babies :) We have a huge fenced in yard on our property that our dogs love to play in and explore. We have worked on crate training for our dogs for while we’re away and frequently take them on walks while we’re home. They love to socialize with one another, our cats and us! Our cats are also super loving and enjoy their cat trees, their litter robot and getting to free roam around our house. All of our pets are also huge cuddle bugs!

“Jim is our go to dog sitter. He was so kind and willing to stay an extra day when we asked to extend our trip! We are able to travel with such a peace of mind knowing our pups and home are in such good hands!”

“Trystan did amazing! Our previous sitter canceled last minute and she was very accommodating! We got tons of pictures throughout her stay and she even let us know when she was coming and going. She left the house even cleaner than when we left! Will 100% use her again!”

Brandi W.

“Grace did an amazing job with our girls and followed all of the directions we left for her! She came at the agreed upon times and made sure they were fed, watered, and pottied! She also sent pictures everyday and gave little updates! She also went above and beyond and brought in our mail and packages in, even though I didn’t ask her too! I completely recommend Grace!”

“Kristen made me feel super at easy for Sauce's first sitter experience! She was on time, comfortable with Sauce, followed his typical routine, and knowledgable. She sent photos and videos, let me know what the two of them were up to, and gave updates on potty breaks and when she was leaving. Definitely reaching back out to her for future pup sitting! Thank you :)”

Brock W.

“Ava was wonderful! She was available for sitting on very little notice for us to attend a funeral. She was very sweet and the house looked perfect when we got home. Our pups gave her 2 paws up!!!!!”

“Miles took amazing care of our dog Baxter. He was very communicative and we felt so comfortable knowing Baxter and our home were in his care while we were away. We could not be happier with the house sitting services he provided. Would definitely recommend!”
