House Sitting Knowles

“I was traveling to the area to visit Yosemite park. We found Leona at the last minute after our original sitter cancelled on us. I'm so glad they did because Leona was amazing! She watched our 11 month old Mini Schnauzer, Moe, during the day for a couple of days while we did different excursions and she was even willing to meet us in different locations to pick him up. Her communication was great and she sent me lots of pictures of their walks and time together. Moe came home happy & tired every day. Overall, Leona was incredibly kind and accommodating and I will definitely be using her in the future when we return to the area!”

About: I've grown up with German Shepherds, and can lift up to 70 pounds. I often house sat for friends and family. One in which had me take care of four dogs and four cats. My jobs included feeding, walking, and playing with the dogs. As they were diffrent beeds/sizes and some were seniors, they had a very strict potty and pill/medicine times, as well as different portions sizes. I do best with written instructions and am task oriented. I am prepared for different animal behaviors and conditions, as I possess a certificate for veterinary assistance. In my care your pet will be throughly loved and cared for. As of right now I am free any day of the week. I am more then willing to do holidays as well as weekends. I am pretty flexible time wise, but do wish for dates to be final set. I am very mindful of pets security and animal behaviors. I will keep parents updated and alert if desired or in emergency situations. I will make sure your pet is taken care of and loved. I thank you for your consideration.

“Once again Lorraine did a wonderful job taking care of our three dogs and our home while we were away. Very dependable and we highly recommend her.”

About: ~I have a unique ability to calm timid, anxious animals ~I take pride in taking proper care of animals ~I have no fear of getting my hands dirty to do so I am fully committed to pet sitting and animal care. Being fully available for all pet care needs is my number one priority! In addition, I do one booking at a time so your pet gets full treatment and one on one time! I am flexible and able to care for your pet however you prefer. My main priority is to make sure not only your pet is happy and comfortable but you, as the pet owner, are as well.

“Christina is simply phenomenal! Her personality is very mature, warm, loving, calm, and her (really great) communication shows great judgement and experience with animals and people. She is totally not put off by challenges, and I have a large hyperactive dog, and another with fear aggression. Both dogs took to her instantly! She has an artistic side and always sends me photos of my dogs which are much better than I can take myself. I like that she is a problem solver and also takes initiative...she just takes care of things, calming my nerves. I return to a house with happy, exercised dogs who seem like they don’t miss me at all :) additionally, Christina shows great respect for your home, and took it upon herself to clean stuff, which was so sweet, thank you Christina!! This review is long overdue. Do not hesitate with her, she is fabulous, trustworthy and very responsible. I came upon her by accident when I thought I was texting another sitter and was shocked at her immediate and friendly reply, so I took a chance on my next housesitting. Boy am I ever glad I did.”

About: Hello! My name is Megan! I love all animals and will spoil your fur children like they were my own. I have lived in the Central Valley and local foothills my whole life. I am organized and I'm great at following detailed instructions, if your pet(s) require unique attention. I can run with them or walk them as well as check on them during the day (check in) to let them outside. I can even bathe them if you would like. I am also able to care for them while you are away (house sitting). I am respectful and trustworthy. I genuinely care about your pets. They will love the attention and exercise I can give them! I have a 4 year old Basset Hound named Molly. I am an animal lover and thought Rover would be a cool way to earn extra cash while helping people with their pets and home. I look forward to meeting you and your pets soon! I make my own schedule so I am usually able to be available anytime that’s convenient for you. I do have a baby under a year old and often will have her with me on check ins and walks. If your animal isn’t good around babies, then it’s probably not a great fit. Your home is a special and sacred place and you can rest assured knowing you will have a trustworthy individual helping you out with your fur babies! I own a cleaning company so I am not a slob and know how to show respect to a home.

“Kaitlyn took such good care of the dogs and our house. Her communication was amazing, and I appreciated the detailed updates. I would definitely book her again!”

“Asianna was great! She was prompt, and kept me updated on how my dog was doing. He's shy but she did a wonderful job of getting to know him. I will definitely be asking Asianna back in the future!”

About: My life is surrounded by animals, and that's the way I like it! I have been working with animals since I was 2 years old if not younger. I started out assisting in rehabilitating wildlife, which never left. I trained several dogs, from showmanship, to basic training, and even as a personal service dog. I have won several best of shows in showmanship. My daily routine is as follows: wake up, get coffee, wake birds up and let them out, let dogs out, feed cats, dogs, birds, make breakfast, hang out with the animals and wake up, eat lunch, clean house while incorporating working with the animals, bath time!, make social media content with the animals, start dinner with the animals, feed animals their foods, snack time, hang out with family, put everyone to bed, goodnight! I treat my animals better than I treat myself 😅 people/souls that can't help themselves, I've always had a place in my heart for, and I always do my best for them.

“Donna was very sweet and caring. She was extra thoughtful and took care of Astro as if he were her own.”

About: I am a fun, loving, outgoing individual that understands the needs of your furbaby. I have taken care of cats and dogs, puppies and kittens since I was 7 years old. I have trained my dad's Saint Bernard, and my own pitbull, and shitzhu so size does not matter. I am great with both cats and dogs. Both my cats and dogs get along with each other and we are all a happy loving family. I have some dog training videos of myself on Instagram where Oprah Winfrey's dog trainer liked a few of my videos. My neighbors and friends have relied on me to take care of their pets. I have fun with fur babies while maintaining a professional mannerism and a good example for all to benefit from my services. Having 3 cats and 2 dogs pet care is my life, I dont have any children so pets are my children. Pet care comes first in my house, so pet care is a huge part in my daily and weekly routine. I have a fenced yard with 2 large friendly dogs and 1 friendly little dog, so there is a perfect size buddy for your companion. I also have 2 cats and one small kitten. I feed my dogs only the best grain free food and treats and I have plenty of toys and games for the dogs to play. I feed the cats a different food than the kitten since the kitten needs special nourishment to grow. I take the dogs on a walk in the many acres of grape fields that reside across the street. The dogs are pack animals and they look to the alpha for protection and leading, I know how to fulfill and give dogs the enrichment they need. I understand the needs of dogs and cats very well and I am confident and trustworthy of every breed size and characteristic your fur baby may have. I have alot of energy and I love to be outdoors. My cats are strictly inside cats but I am working on making an outside cat enclosure so they can enjoy the outside in a safe manner.

“Absolutely amazing. Shannon was so sweet to my dog. Sent me pictures and videos of them hanging out throughout the day. I will absolutely recommend friends that visit the area to have Shannon take care of their fur babies while they explore the beautiful surrounding. I will be back and will definitely request Shannon’s services again. Thank you!’”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of every kind since I was 10—big, small, shy, or extra wiggly! Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and pamper their pets for years. Along the way, I’ve also cared for reptiles, birds, and other unique companions. Whether it’s a turtle that needs tank time, a parrot that loves to chat, or a pup who lives for belly rubs, I treat every pet like part of the family! I’m a college student with an open and flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time to give your pets the love and attention they deserve! I’m available most weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and can easily adjust my hours to fit your pet’s routine. My home is spacious, cozy, and fully pet-friendly! I have plenty of toys, treats, bones, and comfy spots for pets to relax and play. While I don’t have a yard, I’m close to several beautiful dog parks and walking trails here in Clovis—perfect for daily walks and exercise. Pets in my care enjoy a safe, fun, and loving environment where they’re treated like part of the family.

“My cats were well fed and very happy when I got home! They warmed up to Lola right away, which says a lot, since they can be a little shy with new people. Lola clearly took wonderful care of them and made them feel comfortable and loved. When I got back, the cats were happily hanging out with her like she was part of the family. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Highly recommend Lola for anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!”

About: Hi, you can call me Jace! I’ve nursed puppies back from parvo, bottle-fed new born kittens, and rescued over 10 dogs from the street! I also have experience in special needs and senior dog care! I’m currently working part time and have plenty of time in my schedule for boarding! Monday - Sunday I can be booked for overnights and will be spending time with your furry family before 2 pm and after 6 pm. I am extremely cautious of front dogs and perimeter safety. I also secure leashes before we step outside and always lock doors upon leaving the premises.

“Nelson is amazing not just with our pup and bunnies but in general. He's helped us out last minute twice now and each time we've have felt as comfortable as we would had we been watching them ourselves. Great communicator, very flexible, and truly understands the stress pet owners get leaving their loved ones with someone new. Seriously, can't recommend him enough.”

About: I have had dogs my entire life and have extensive hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and breeds. Growing up with dogs taught me the importance of providing daily exercise, feeding, grooming, companionship, and recognizing their individual needs and personalities. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have watched and cared for many dogs for family, friends, and neighbors. I am comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications if needed, taking dogs on walks, cleaning up after them, and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I am dependable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, treating every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I've had dogs my whole life and caring for them has always been part of my day. I'm used to planning my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so making sure they're happy, comfortable, and well cared for is something I genuinely enjoy. I am reliable, organized, and committed to following each pet's routine to help them feel safe and comfortable while their owner is away. I will care for your pets with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I will carefully follow your pet's routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and any special instructions you provide. I will make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I'll also keep your home clean by picking up after your pet, refreshing water bowls, and maintaining their living area. I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pets, and I'll provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind during your time away.
