House Sitting Jessenland

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes. I’ve cared for senior dogs who needed diapers, special diets, and extra patience, and I also have experience with animal medical administration and providing attentive routine care. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m patient, dependable, and committed to making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I currently work full time, but I have a flexible schedule and am able to work with you to find a routine that fits your needs. I’m happy to coordinate visit times and care schedules in advance so your fur family gets the consistency and attention they deserve. I’ll always do my best to accommodate your schedule while making sure I can provide reliable, loving care for your pets. I provide care in my clients’ homes, with a focus on keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment and maintaining their normal routines. I offer weekend care, drop-in visits, and walks. During each visit, I’ll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, gets the attention and exercise they need, and receives any routine care you’ve requested. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual schedule and care instructions so they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I was the kid hanging out in the neighbors dog house when my mom couldn't find me. Ive had a number of dogs since early on. Currently I have 4 dogs that run our household. We treat our dogs with love and kindness and reward with positive feedback. I would like to believe that people want the best for their pets, and with my care they will be treated as you would or better. I work from home currently and have access to let the pups out as needed. The fenced yard is high. They love the space and freedom of no leash. I have a fenced yard and 4 large dogs that play well with others. I do have a separate space if nessecary to keep them separated. I like to engage with the pups to keep them busy.. Hopefully if we play long enough they sleep well for me and you.

“Makayla was amazing with our elderly dog and our house as well. She went about and beyond for us and we really appreciated it. Would definitely book her again.”

“Sarah’s was great with my very senior Jack Russell Terrier. She was also on time for each sit which is very important to me, and was flexible and very good natured about a change in plans. A very good house sitter!”

About: I hold a degree in Animal Science from the University of Wisconsin–River Falls, where I completed a variety of courses focused on animal care, behavior, and management, along with gaining valuable hands-on experience in dog training. I also have over eight years of experience fostering and training service animals. Through this experience, I have developed a strong understanding of canine behavior and am comfortable working with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I prioritize patience, consistency, safety, and individualized care for every dog I work with. I especially enjoy spending time outdoors and going on walks, and I look forward to providing your dog with plenty of exercise, companionship, and attention. I’m excited to meet you and your pet and provide reliable, high-quality care while you’re away! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I enjoy spending time with animals and prioritize providing consistent, attentive care. I have flexibility in my schedule to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and extended stays, and I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual routine and needs. I especially enjoy incorporating walks and outdoor time into my day and look forward to making pet care a rewarding part of my regular routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. I follow each pet’s individual care instructions, including feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise, and any specific preferences or routines. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship while respecting the pet’s space and personality. I also understand that caring for a pet means caring for their home, so I am respectful, responsible, and mindful of keeping the space clean and secure. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and cared for while giving you peace of mind while you’re away.

“Haley was an amazing pet sitter! She took such great care of both our dog and our cat while we were away, and it gave us so much peace of mind. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which we really appreciated and loved receiving. When we got home, the house was spotless! Our pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Haley to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and trustworthy pet sitter, and we’ll definitely be booking her again.”

“Kris was a spectacular sitter. About the time that I thought about missing my pups, she had already send images and videos to let me know they were happy and doing well. She was quick to respond, helpful and great to work with. Would definitely have her back.”

Jennifer C.

“Kayla did a great job caring for our pets and our home while we were away. She checked in daily and we were at ease knowing she had everything under control. We will definitely be reaching out when we need a pet sitter in the future.”

About: I grew up with dogs and have cared for my own pets throughout my life. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and getting to know their individual personalities. I work from home, so I’m able to give the dogs in my care plenty of attention, walks, playtime and companionship throughout the day. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and will always follow your pet’s normal routine and care instructions closely. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog, so I’ll treat them like they’re part of the family and keep you updated while you’re away. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care. I’m available throughout the day for regular walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention and companionship. Since I’m home most of the day, your dog won’t be left alone for long periods. I’m also happy to follow their normal daily routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and at home while you’re away. I provide a clean, comfortable, and relaxed home where your dog can feel safe and at home. I grew up with dogs, so I understand how important it is to pay attention to their individual personalities, routines, and needs. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, sleeping arrangements, and any special care your dog requires. I’ll also provide regular pictures and updates so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention.

“Haley was absolutely incredible with Gypsy (11 yr old anxious reacue dog) and Raya (5 yr old Ragamuffin attention magnet). From the very first complimentary meet and greet, I could tell she was professional and genuinely invested. She came prepared, took detailed notes, asked for emergency contacts, confirmed which vet to use in case of emergency, and made sure she had exact medication dosages. She even asked about each dog’s specific quirks so she could support them in the way they’re used to. That level of thoroughness meant everything to me. Communication during the stay was wonderful. She sent regular photo updates and kept me posted on how they were doing, which gave me total peace of mind. She treated my home with so much care, and I came back to a house that was cleaner than when I left it. She even left the sweetest little coaster as a gift that I found after she left. It said “Sweet Kitten,” and it was such a thoughtful, personal touch. For context, I am a very cautious pet parent, and Gypsy is extremely anxious when separated from me. This was the first time I have ever left them with anyone outside of family, so I was understandably nervous. Haley handled it beautifully. Gypsy was calm, comfortable, and clearly felt safe. I did not worry once all weekend. I truly knew they were in loving, capable hands. Haley is sweet, responsible, attentive, and a joy to work with. And, for those that perhaps run a little late, Haley was able to be flexible with my arrival back home as well. I will ABSOLUTELY be booking her again and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any pet parent, especially those with anxious pups who need extra care and sensitivity.”

About: Hi! I’m Elena. Whether your pet is an easygoing adult dog, a timid kitty, or a gentle senior who just wants a quiet place to nap, I provide calm, attentive, and high-trust care tailored to their normal routine. My animal care background runs deep: 8+ Years of Rescue Experience & Patient Care: I spent eight years volunteering with City Kitties Rescue in DC and The Cats at Longstreet. Through this work, I developed a strong understanding of animal body language, patience with shy pets, and a gentle touch for animals who need a peaceful environment to feel comfortable. Gentle Senior & Easygoing Routine Care: I love spending time with adult and senior pets who enjoy a relaxed pace, predictable routines, lots of affection, or simply lounging on the couch. I grew up with a Peekapoo and trained with the Animal Humane Society on gentle dog handling techniques. Pro Communication & Great Photos: You’ll receive clear, real-time updates and high-quality progress photos during every stay so you always have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and relaxed. Broad Animal Experience: While I focus on adult cats and dogs on Rover, I’ve personally cared for a wide variety of animals throughout my life—from hedgehogs, rabbits, and pocket pets to reptiles (including live feeding). I maintain a peaceful, welcoming environment and treat every pet like family. I’d love to meet you and your companion! My schedule is very flexible. I work part-time and remotely, which means I am home for the majority of the day and can give your pet plenty of individual attention, frequent potty breaks, and low-stress companionship. Because I work from my peaceful home environment, I can easily stick to your pet’s normal daily rhythm—whether that’s a midday backyard break, regular feeding times, or just having a cozy lap available while I work. Whether caring for pets in my own home or visiting yours, safety, comfort, and respect for routine are my top priorities. In My Home (Boarding): I use a low-stress, step-by-step transition process for feline guests. Just like my rescue fosters, visiting cats start out in a cozy, dedicated space (like a private room) with all their essentials until they feel confident enough to explore the rest of the house at their own pace. For dogs, I maintain a secure, calm environment and ensure my backyard is fully supervised during outdoor breaks. In Your Home (Drop-Ins): I follow your exact instructions to keep your pet’s routine seamless. My visits typically begin with fresh food, water, and litter/potty care. Once their primary needs are met, I spend the remaining time providing gentle affection, low-key play, or simply quiet companionship—always ensuring your home is kept secure and key logistics are handled with complete accountability.

“Maxine looked after our dog and two cats for three days at our house. She kept in contact with us and sent lots of photos. Our dog got daily walks and played a lot outdoors. We will definitely hire her again.”

About: Hi! I grew up in a family that always had a house full of pets, so caring for animals became a natural part of my life from a young age. I now have two cats of my own and have been pet sitting for others since I was 16. I have extensive experience with both house sitting and pet sitting, and I always make sure your home is left clean and your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I know it can be stressful for pets when their family is away, so I make it a priority to give them plenty of attention, affection, and love while you’re gone. My goal is for both you and your pets to have complete peace of mind!

I’m happy to see if I can make arrangements to fit your pet’s needs. 🐾 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I know every pet has their own routine, and I’ll do my best to keep things as normal as possible while you’re away. I’ll follow all care instructions carefully, keep your home clean and secure, and provide regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind. I treat every pet like they’re my own and strive to create a calm, loving environment until you’re home again.
